The substances obtained from the leaf, stem and root of tobacco plants inoculated with avirulent and virulent isolates of Pseudomonas solanacearum were at R_f\;0.6$ and R_f\;0.9$ on TLC plate, respectively. Both substances showed antibacterial activities not only on P. solanacearum but also on Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora and Escherichia coli in vitro. However, the antibacterial substances were not detectable from the filtrate of the autoclaves tobacco sap medium, in which the avirulent or virulent bacterium was cultured for 3 days. Peroxidase and poly phenoloxidase activities and their isozyme patterns did not differ significantly between plants treated with the virulent and avirulent isolates, or between the susceptible cultivar BY 4 and the resistant cultivar NC 82. However, activities of the two enzymes were increased in leaves of the susceptible cultivar BY 4 treated with either the virulent or the avirulent isolate.

The strain with antibacterial activity was isolated among soil samples collected in Suwon area. The isolated strain was identified as Bacillus sp. YR-1 with respect to its morphological, cultural, and physiological characteristics. Optimal medium for the highest production of antibiotic was composed of sucrose 2.0%(w/v), peptone 2.0%(w/v) and NaCl 0.1%(w/v). The maximum production of antibiotic was shown at $35^{\circ}C$ for 48 hours with the initial pH 7.0.

For the selection of powerful antagonistic bacterium for biological control of soil borne Eminia carotovora subsp. carotovora causing rot of vegetable, excellent strains (S4, S14, 565) were selected from 1,196 strains of bacteria which were isolated from rhizosphere in vegetable root rot-suppresive soil. Strains were identified to be Pseudomonas species with Api 20NE kit. Antagonistic substance was produced in 523 synthetic broth medium at pH 7~8 and $30^{\circ}C$ during 3 days culture. The substance was stable in the pH range of 6 to 9. When the basal medium was supplemented with mannitol and sorbitol as carbon source and calcium chloride as metal salt, the production of the inhibitory substance was increased. The inhibitory acitivity was increased by the addition of fertilizer in soil. The isolated strains were resistant to the agricultural chemical such as benomyl and fosethyl-Al-folpet, and the antibiotics such as penicillin and lincomycin. We had found that Pseudomonas sp. S14 strain had a single plasmid. After treated with acridin orange for curing, we confirmed the existence of antagonistic gene in the chromosomal DNA.

We previously demonstrated that root colonization of the rhizobacterium, Pseudomonas chlororaphis O6, induced expression of a galactinol synthase gene (CsGolS1), and resulting galactinol conferred induced systemic resistance (ISR) against fungal and bacterial pathogens in cucumber leaves. To examine the role of galactinol on ISR, drought or high salt stress, we obtained T-DNA insertion Arabidopsis mutants at the AtGolS1 gene, an ortholog of the CsGolS1 gene. The T-DNA insertion mutant compromised resistance induced by the O6 colonization against Erwinia carotovora. Pharmaceutical application of 0.5 - 5 mM galactinol on roots was sufficient to elicit ISR in wild-type Arabidopsis against infection with E. carotovora. The involvement of jasmonic acid (JA) signaling on the ISR was validated to detect increased expression of the indicator gene PDF1.2. The T-DNA insertion mutant also compromised tolerance by increasing galactinol content in the O6-colonized plant against drought or high salt stresses. Taken together, our results indicate that primed expression of the galactinol synthase gene AtGolS1in the O6-colonized plants can play a critical role in the ISR against infection with E. carotovora, and in the tolerance to drought or high salt stresses.

The pathogenic bacteria isolated from the rotted fruits and tubers of red pepper, tomato, eggplant and potato which were collected from farms of Chungnam province and the markets of Seoul, Pusan, Taejon, Chonju, Iri, Weonju, Jecheon, Chungju and Cheonan in Korea. These isolates were divided into ninety-eight isolates of Enoinia sp. and seven isolates of Pseudomonas spp. on the basis of their taxonomic characteristics. Among seven isolates of Pseudomonas spp., six isolates were identified as P. viridiflava and two were P. marginalis and ninety-eight isolates of Erwinia sp. as E. carotovora. subsp. carotovora on the basis of bacteriological properties.

The incitant of soft rot on burley tobacco leaves in the curing vinylhouse was identified as Erwinia carotovra subsp. carotovora on the basis of its physiological characters. The bacterium yew best at $25^{\circ}C$ and $30^{\circ}C$, but no growth was detectable at $40^{\circ}C$ in the nutrient broth for 24 hours period. Burley tobacco leaves inoculated with the bacteria (Ecc) produced typical soft rot lesions when the incubation temperature was 25 to $30^{\circ}C$ and the relative humidity was more than 8075, however, the lesion development was suppressed when the temperature was $40^{\circ}C$ and the relative humidity was below 80%. Significant negative correlation was found between hanging space in the curing vinylhouse and the incidence of soft rot on the tobacco leaves harvested in a rainy day regardless of streptomycin treatment.

Potato blackleg disease caused by Erwinia carotovora subsp. atroseptica has been a serious problem in Korea. It was previously reported that four mixtures [streptomycin (9.3 ppm) + copper oxide (171.6 ppm)/copper hydroxide (146.3 ppm), streptomycin sulfate (7.0 ppm)+copper oxide (171.6ppm)/copper hydroxide (146.3 ppm)] were effective for the control of E. carotovora subsp. atroseptica. in in vitro test. Using those four mixtures and two antibiotics [streptomycin (81.4 ppm) and streptomycin sulfate (61.3 ppm)], the effectiveness of control for E. carotovora subsp. atroseptica. was conducted in the field. Two antibiotics showed over 60% of control efficacy under different soil conditions, while mixtures of two antibiotics with copper compounds did not show any control effects on the infected seed potato. Two mixtures [streptomycin (27.9 ppm)+copper hydroxide (438.9 ppm), streptomycin sulfate (21.0 ppm) + copper oxide (514.8 ppm)] were effective in the control of potato blackleg disease on the infected potato plants under different climate conditions.

Phenolic compounds from 7 species of naturalized invader species and Korean wild plants were analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography. Eleven phenolic compounds including benzoic acid were identified. The extract of naturalized plants was significantly more inhibitory to seed germination and seedling growth of the both naturalized and Korean wild plants. The content of total phenolic compounds in each extract were 43.5 mg/l in Ailanthus altissima as the maximum amount and 25.5 mg/l in Phytolacca americana as the minimum. Phytotoxic substances of ethanol extracts was investigated for antifungal activity against 23 selected fungus species. The antifungal activity of Phytolacca americana showed the greatest clear zone of 23 mm in Aspergillus awamori and its activity had an effect against 6 fungus species. Ailanthus altissima formed the greatest clear zone of 26 mm in Erwinia carotovora sub. sp. carotovora and had an effect agsinst 2 fungus species.
