Enterobacter sp. B54 inhibited growth of the fungus Phytophthora capsici on potato dextrose agar (PDA). Three mutants with antifungal activities (denoted M54-47, M54-113, and M54-329) which were lost or increased, through Pl::Tn5 lac mutagenesis, were used to isolate genes responsible for fungal inhibition on PDA. Two clones were selected from the partially EcoR1-digested genomic library of the wild-type strain by probing with genomic flanking sequences of each mutant. We have isolated a 20-kb EcoR1 genomic DNA fragment from this strain that contains genes involved in hyphal growth inhibition of P. capsici on PDA. Subcloning and expression analysis of the above DNA fragment identified a 8-kb region which was necessary for antifungal activities. A 8-kb HindⅢDNA fragment covers three genomic loci inserted by Tn5 lac in each mutant. This suggested that all genes which are related to antifungal activities might be clustered in simple forms of at least 5-8 kb sizes.

Seventy four microorganisms, which have antagonistic activity against to Fusarium culmorum, were tested for their inhibitory effect on colony development of obligate biotroph Erysiphe graminis f. sp. hordei Marchal, the causal agent of powdery mildew on barley plants. Of these, 13 actinomycetes isolates were shown to reduce the colony development of mildew completely by application of their 10% cell-free culture filtrates on barley leaves. An Isolate, A252, was the most powerful antagonist and its antifungal activity was further assessed. The colony development of mildew was significantly reduced by application of the 1% cell-free culture filtrate of isolate A252. In comparison to the control, the protective and curative application of 10% cell-free culture filtrate from A252 showed 88.5% and 96.1% reduction of colony numbers respectively. By the protective application, 68.3% of the inhibition was observed after 9 days of treatment, thus showed prolonged inhibitory effect. In vitro test, complete inhibition of the mycelial growth of Microdochium nivale was achieved by the treatment of 1% A252 culture filtrate and 80.2% of inhibition was observed by the 0.1% treatment.

This report describes two cases of complete arch implant-supported restorations. The first patient had seven dental implants in each arch with monolithic zirconia frameworks. At four weeks' follow-up, the one-piece maxillary framework was fractured, which was re-designed and re-fabricated using laser-sintered cobalt-chrome alloy. The second patient had four implants in the mandible only. A mandibular monolithic zirconia framework and a maxillary conventional complete denture were fabricated and delivered. At five years' follow-up, the patient reported no significant discomfort. Careful consideration and monitoring of the status of antagonistic arches and stress distribution on zirconia frameworks were suggested for complete arch implant-supported fixed restorations.

A strain of Streptomyces sp. (M10) antagonistic to Botrytis cinerea was isolated from orchard soil obtained from Jeju Island, Korea. An antifungal substance (CN1) was purified from the culture extracts of the strain, and then identified as valinomycin through extensive spectroscopic analyses. Valinomycin showed potent in vitro antifungal activity against Botrytis cinerea and also in vivo control efficacy against Botrytis blight development in cucumber plants. Overall, the disease control efficacy of valinomycin was similar to that of vinclozolin, a commercial fungicide. This study provides the first report on the disease control efficacy of valinomycin against Botrytis blight.

Twenty-seven N,N',N"-trisubstituted thiourea derivatives were prepared. Among them, 1- [3-(4'-hydroxy-3'-methoxy-phenyl)-propyl] -1,3-diphenethyl-thiourea (81, IC$\sub$50/= 0,32 $\mu\textrm{m}$), showed 2-fold higher antagonistic activity than that of capsazepine (3, IC$\sub$50/= 0,65 $\mu\textrm{m}$) against the vanilloid receptor in a Ca$\^$2+/ -influx assay.

A six DOF fine manipulator based on magnetic levitation is developed. Since most of magnetic levitation system are inherently unstable, a proposed magnetically levitated fine manipulator is implemented by use of an antagonistic structure to increase stability. From mathematical modeling and experiment, the equations of motion are derived. In addition, a six DOF sensing system is implemented by use of three 2-axis PSD sensors. A model reference-$H_{\infty}$ controller is applied to the system for the position control, In application of the fine manipulator, a wafer probing system is proposed to identify nonfunctional circuts. The probing system requires compliance to avoid destruction of DUT(device under test). A feedfor- ward-PD controllers are presented by the terms of the position accuracy, the settling time and the force accuracy.y.

Treatment with antagonistic rhizobactera Burkholderia cepacia strain N9523 or an inducer of resistance DL-$\beta$-amino-n-butyric acid (BABA) effectively inhibited Phytophthora capsici infection on pepper plants in artificially infested pots. Treatment with BABA alone at $1,000\mu\textrm{g}$/ml or together with B. cepacia in combination induced a strong protection from the Phytophthora disease in the greenhouse. In artificially infested field, protection of pepper plants against the Phytophthora epidemic by BABA treatment was maintained at a considerable level. In contrast, soil drench with the antagonist B. cepacia alone, or in combination with BABA did not suppress the Phytophthora epidemic in the field. Mortality of pepper plants caused by P. capsici infection was significantly reduced by treatment with the antagonist Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain 950923-29 and BABA (12-29% plants diseased) relative to the untreated control (41-91% plants diseased) in the naturally infested field. Treatment with the antagonist Ps. aeruginosa strain 950923-29 and BABA also resulted in high levels of protection against Phytophthora blight in pepper plants. In the plastic filmhouse test, the average percentage of plants diseased was significantly low relative to the naturally infested field. Treatment with the antagonist Ps. aeruginosa strain 950923-29 and BABA in combination was most effective in suppressing the Phytophthora disease in field and plastic filmhouse.

Antagonistic microorganisms against $Rhizoctonia$ $solani$ were isolated and their antifungal activities were investigated. Two hundred sixteen bacterial isolates were isolated from various soil samples and 19 isolates were found to antagonize the selected plant pathogenic fungi with varying degrees. Among them, isolate C9 was selected as an antagonistic microorganism with potential for use in further studies. Treatment with the selected isolate C9 resulted in significantly reduced incidence of stem-segment colonization by $R.$ $solani$ AG2-2(IV) in Zoysia grass and enhanced growth of grass. Through its biochemical, physiological, and 16S rDNA characteristics, the selected bacterium was identified as $Bacillus$ $subtilis$ subsp. $subtilis$. Mannitol (1%) and soytone (1%) were found to be the best carbon and nitrogen sources, respectively, for use in antibiotic production. An antibiotic compound, designated as DG4, was separated and purified from ethyl acetate extract of the culture broth of isolate C9. On the basis of spectral data, including proton nuclear magneric resonance ($^1H$ NMR), carbon nuclear magneric resonance ($^{13}C$ NMR), and mass analyses, its chemical structure was established as a stereoisomer of acetylbutanediol. Application of the ethyl acetate extract of isolate C9 to several plant pathogens resulted in dose-dependent inhibition. Treatment with the purified compound (an isomer of acetylbuanediol) resulted in significantly inhibited growth of tested pathogens. The cell free culture supernatant of isolate C9 showed a chitinase effect on chitin medium. Results from the present study demonstrated the significant potential of the purified compound from isolate C9 for use as a biocontrol agent as well as a plant growth promoter with the ability to trigger induced systemic resistance of plants.
