This experiment was conducted to propagate Zantedeschia spp. in vitro. The frequency of adventitious bud clusters (ABC) formation from shoot tips in Z. 'Best Gold' was high at more than 65% on media with 2.0∼5.0 mg/L BA or 0.1∼1.0 mg/L thidiazuron. The highest formation rate of ABC (75%) was obtained on medium containing 2.0 mg/L BA. Comparing to treatment of BA alone, combined one of BA and NAA did not stimulate the formation of ABC and the shoot regeneration from shoot tips. The proliferation of ABC from sections (0.7∼1.0 cm) of ABC occurred effective on medium with 2.0 mg/L BA. Shoots developed from the sections (0.7∼1.0 cm) of ABC grew and rooted favorably on media containing 1.0∼2,0 mg/L IBA. The shoots were multiplicated effectively on medium with 0.5 mg/L thidiazuron in Z. 'Childsiana', on medium with 3.0 mg/L BA in 2. 'Golden Affair', and on medium with 5.0∼10.0 mg/L BA in Z. 'Pacific Pink'.

In order to micropropagate uniform plantlets of Philodendron cannifolium in vitro, the shoot tips were cultured on MS media supplemented with $0.5{\sim}10.0$ mg/L BA or $0.05{\sim}0.1$ mg/L thidiazuron(TDZ). The adventitious multi-bud clusters from basal part of shoots were formed on MS media containing $2.0{\sim}5.0$ mg/L BA or $0.05{\sim}0.1$ mg/L TDZ. But the shoots grown on MS media with TDZ showed necrosis by the lack of chlorophyll. The adventitious multi-bus clusters were cut into $5{\sim}7$ mm sections and cultured on MS media containing BA and TDZ for shoot proliferation. Shoots were proliferated vigorously on MS medium supplemented with $1.0{\sim}3.0$ mg/L BA with up to 30 shoots. But abnormally swollen hard calli were formed from basal parts of shoots on MS media with TDZ and high concentration of BA(10.0 mg/L). The proliferated shoots on same media also showed necrosis by the lack of chlorophyll. The shoot growth and rooting were favorable on MS media containing $0.5{\sim}2.0$ mg/L IBA. The rooted plantlets were acclimatizated effectively in soil mixed with perlite 1:vermiculite 1 or vermiculite alone. Fifteen mL of liquid medium containing 10 g/L activated charcoal and 30 g/L sucrose were added in same vessels after small shoots were proliferated to stimulate shoot growth and rooting. After 8 weeks in culture, the shoots were dipped into high concentration of IBA solution. and planted in soil mexed with perlite 1:vermiculite 1. The shoot growth and rooting were favorable in dipping treatments of $500{\sim}2,000$ ppm IBA solutions for 10 sec.

This study was carried out to investigate the possibility of plant regeneration through somatic embryogenesis in suspension culture of Aralia elata S. Callus was induced from the explants of leaf and petiole cultured in the MS media containing 2,4-D and TDZ. More embryogenic calli were formed from petiole and with combination treatment of 24-D and TDZ. The quarter strength MS medium was effective for increasing number of somatic embryos. Mannitol supplemented to the quarter strength MS medium, reduced somatic embryo formation but inositol increased. Normal plantlets(86%) were regenerated from mature somatic embryos in MS basal medium and 50% of those survied when transplanted to the vermiculite in greenhouse.

In an attempt to optimize the in vitro-regeneration conditions necessary for the genetic manipulation of tomato species, we examined several hybrid lines and wild species (peruvianum, pimpinellifolium, glandulosum) of Lycopersicon for. their, different regeneration ability. The basal medium used for callus growth and organogenesis was MSB (MS + B5) supplemented with three combinations of TDZ (Thidiazuron) 0.5mg/L+NAA 0.5mg/L, BA 2.0mg/L+NAA0.05 mg/L, and zeatin 3.0 mg/L + IAA 0.02 mg/L. In the genotype of Lycopenicon grandulosum, combination of TDZ and NAA was more effective in inducing shoot and root differentiation than those of BA and NAA or zeatin and IAA. When all genotypes tested were considered, however combination of zeatin and IAA was shown to be the best in shoot regeneration. Result indicate that callus and organogenesis of Lycopenicon species are dependent upon the hormone types and plant genotypes, but MSB medium with zeatin 3.0 mg/L + IAA 0.02 mg/L maybe appropriate for genotype-independent plant regeneration system of Lycopercicon species. We also tried TDZ as a cytokinin source in tomato tissue culture and found it highly significant in tomato regeneration system.

A high-efficiency, reproducible somatic embryogenesis system for strawberry cultivar Chandler was developed. Thirty-one somatic embryos per explant(max no.) were recorded in leaf discs which were cultured on medium containing MS salts+$B_5$ vitamins+2% glucose+4.0 mg $1^{-1}$TDZ(Thidiazuron) and incubated at $10{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ under darkness for one week followed by three weeks under 16-h photoperiod. The scanning electron microscopic(SEM) ontogeny revealed the normal development of somatic embryos from globular to heart-shaped and dissection microscopy from torpedo-shaped to cotyledonary-stage embryos. The maximum germination percentage of 48% could be obtained on MS medium containing kinetin(1.0 mg $1^{-1}$) and the maximum survival percentage(79%) of plantlets after four weeks was found to be in the mixture of vermiculite, peatmoss, and soilrite(1:1:1).

Optimum culture conditions for high frequency plant regeneration from leaf explants of Kalanchoe daigremontiana Hamet &Perrier were established. Shoot regeneration was achieved from leaf explant cultures using MS medium supplemented with indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and thidiazuron (TDZ) or benzyladenine (BA). Percent regeneration was influenced by plant growth regulators and source of explants. MS medium supplemented with TDZ (1.0 mg/l) and IAA (0.4 mg/l) was the most effective, providing shoot regeneration for 76.7 % of ex vitro leaf explants associated with a high number of shoots per explant (9.5 mean shoots per explant), whereas 100% shoot regeneration associated with 12.4 shoots per explant occurred from in vitro leaf explants on the same medium. Clusters of shoots were multiplied and elongated on MS medium containing several concentrations of BA. MS medium supplemented with 0.25 mg/l BA was proved as the most effective shoot elongation medium. Elongated shoots (2-3 cm) were rooted at 100% on half-strength MS medium. Rooted plantlets were then transferred to potting soil. Regenerated plants were established in the soil with 90% success.

In this study, we established a novel somatic embryogenesis and plant regeneration system through cell suspension culture of white dandelion (Taraxacum coreanum NAKAI.). Embryogenic calli could be initiated from leaf and root explants of sterile seedlings on solid Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 1.0 mg/L 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) after 3-week cultures. To proliferate embryogenic calli rapidly, cell suspension culture was performed with transferred to liquid MS medium with various combinations of plant growth regulators (PGRs) including 2,4-D, ${\alpha}$-naphthalene acetic acid (NAA), indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), $N^6$-benzylamino purine (BAP), thidiazuron (TDZ), and kinetin. During suspension cultures, embryogenic calli not only greatly proliferated, but shoot organogenesis also simultaneously occurred from the surface of somatic embryos. Among them, TDZ at lower concentration, 0.1 mg/L produced the highest efficiency of somatic embryo formation and shoot organogenesis. Rooting of embryogenic calli with adventitious shoots was done on solid MS medium containing 0.1 mg/L NAA and 0.3% activated carbon. Nearly 80% of embryogenic calli with shoot organogenesis could be rooted normal. Well-rooted plantlets were transferred into pots under a greenhouse condition, and plants derived from this system appeared phenotypically normal.

cDNA for oxidosqualene cyclase was cloned by a homology-based PCR method and sequenced from Centella asiatica. In a sequences analysis, the putative polypeptide of C. asiatica cycloartenol synthase (CaCYS) deduced from the 2,274 bp nucleotide sequence, consisted of 758 amino acids and had a molecular mass of 86.3 kD. The predicted amino acid sequence exhibited high homology to that of PNX (cycloartenol synthase) from Panax ginseng ($89\%$). Southern blot analysis suggests that CaCYS may be present in one copy of the C. asiatica genome. If methyl jasmonate (MJ) is applied exogenously to plants, not only triterpene saponins are accumulated in tissues, but also it produces effects such as growth inhibition and the promotion of ethylene production. In order to investigate the effect of MJ and thidiazuron (TDZ), a cytokinin that plays a role as an antisenescence agent in several plants, on the level of CaCYS mRNA, we performed northern blot analysis. When MJ is alone treated by adding to culture medium, CaCYS transcripts were inhibited. However, sustained levels of the expression of CaCYS, by adding TDZ to the medium despite MJ treatments, were demonstrated in C. asiatica leaves.

In an attempt to improve biomass and bioactive compound production, we cultured adventitious roots of $Eleutherococcus$ $koreanum$ in 250 mL Erlenmeyer flasks using Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium with different concentrations of auxins (IBA, NAA, IAA) and cytokinins (BA, kinetin, TDZ). Root biomass (fresh and dry weight) was enhanced at $5mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) after 5 weeks of culture. The content of total phenolics and flavonoids was also increased with $5mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ IBA compared to ${\alpha}$-naphtalene acetic acid (NAA) or indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) treatments. The combination of $5mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ IBA with $0.1mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ thidiazuron (TDZ; N-phenyl-N'-1,2,3,-thidiazol-5-ylurea) enhanced root fresh and dry weight (1.4- and 1.6-fold, respectively) as well as the content of total phenolics and flavonoids compared to the relative control (without cytokinin). On the contrary, $N_6$-benzyladenine (BA) and 6-furfurylaminopurine (kinetin) did not significantly affect root biomass and bioactive compound production in adventitious roots of $E.$ $koreanum$. These results suggested that $5mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ IBA combination with $0.1mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ TDZ supplementation was most suitable for both biomass and bioactive compound production from adventitious roots of $E.$ $koreanum$.
