Grape fruit quality can be deteriorated with leaf chlorosis caused by magnesium (Mg) deficiency during fruit coloring season in several grapevine varieties. The occurrence of leaf chlorosis and soil Mg states for four grapevine varieties (Campbell Early, Muscat bailey A (MBA), Sheridan, and Kyoho) in the vineyards of Gyeongsan and Youngcheon were surveyed. The relationships between leaf chlorosis and fruit qualities were also investigated. Leaf chlorosis was more widely found and the symptom was stronger in Campbell Early in comparison to the other varieties. Sugar content and Hunter values (L, a, b) of grape fruit were significantly lower in the trees of chlorosis when compare to healthy grapevine trees. Soil Mg contents in the vineyards where leaf chlorosis was found were lower than the optimum level for grapevine. Also Mg content in the petioles of chlorosis grapevines was significantly lower than healthy grapevines. Application of Mg through foliar spray and soil fertigation was quite effective in correcting deficiencies of Mg in grapevine. Proper management of soil Mg availability and K/Mg ratio is strongly recommended to prevent Mg deficiency in grapevine.

The purpose of this study was to determine the inheritance of chlorosis under low temperature at seedling stage of rice. The expression of chlorosis among 21 rice cultivars treated at $18^{\circ}C$ showed in one Tongil type cultivar, Milyang 23, and two Indica type cultivars, IR 36 and Dular. The sign of chlorosis was not appeared in all of the japonica type cultivars under the same treatment. The reduction of chlorophyll content under the low temperature was differed from varietal group and cultivars. The $F_2$ population from a cross between Toyohatamochi and Dular segregated 3:1 ratio for normal and white phenotypes of third leaf. From the result, it was suggested that the chlorosis was controlled by a single recessive gene. The chlorosis rice detected from this study will be used as a good material for the genetic study related to photosynthetic ability of rice.

This study was conducted to determine the cause of the occurence of marginal leaf chlorosis in ginseng plants (Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer), and to determine its emersion in fields (practically) and in pots (experimentally). The following results were obtained. In the Present investigation, ginseng plants raised in acidic soil containing a high a moue t of Mn showed marginal leaf chlorosis. Henre it Ivas suggested that the shoot growth and root weights became grad gractually lower. The leaves having marginal leaf chlorosis contained low amounts of N, P,. Ca, Mg, and Na and the Fe/Mn ratios were low. There was a corresponding increase in Mn uptake. It was founrl that in soils where marginal leaf chlorisis occured the pH urar brlolv 4.2 to 4.9 and the Ca, Mg and Na content was decreased thus effectively increasing the available manganese in the soil. The Mn/Fe ratios in the yellow leaf margins of ginseng Plants affected by the Mn toxicity was over 2.0 compared to the general Mn/Fe ratio of 0.50 for healthily leaves, stems and roots. Typically when ginseng plants grow fields having soil with a pH below about 5.0, there tenor to be an uptake of excess Mn. When ginseng plants are grown in a nutrient sand culture solution It with an increased Mn concentration, they accumulate large amounts of Mn in the roots and in the shoots. In both casts marginal leaf chlorosis appeared in the emersions. In the Present investigation, ginseng plants raised in acidic soil and containing a high amount of Mn showed marginal leaf chlorosis.

Effect of liming material application on the prevention or cure of Mn toxicity symptoms including marginal leaf chlorosis in 3-year-old ginseng plants grown in acidic soils were investigated. It was found that the ratio of Fe to Mn was above about 0.5 and the ratio of Mn to Fe was below about 2.00 in 4-year old ginseng leaves when liming materials were applied in field experiments. It was apparent that the occurrence of marginal leaf chlorosis was decreasing affected by application of Ca, Mg and Fe. The appearance of marginal leaf chlorosis was decreased to about 78 percent in 4-year-old ginseng and to about 69 percent in 5-year-old ginseng, and then the fresh root weight was increased up to 66 percent in 4-year ginseng plants.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of pretreatment and shipping temperature on leaf chlorosis in cut Lilium Oriental hybrid 'Siberia'. Cut lilies were shipped under various temperatures (5, 10, 15, $25^{\circ}C$) for 5 days. When cut lilies were shipped at $25^{\circ}C$, leaf chlorosis was accelerated. However, chlorosis was significantly decreased by shipping at 5 to $15^{\circ}C$. In addition, leaf chlorosis was significantly decreased when the cut lilies were pretreated with a solution containing Promalin (BA + $GA_{4+7}$) as compared to the control. Promalin completely prevented postharvest leaf chlorosis, whereas $GA_3$ and Chrysal SVB were ineffective. Leaf chlorosis decreased more with Promalin dip treatment than with spray treatment. This pretreatment solution also extended the vase life of cut lilies. When cut lilies were pretreated with Promalin, yield (Fv/Fm) of chlorophyll fluorescence was highly maintained. Especially chlorophyll content was significant increased by Promalin treatment. Thus, shipping between 5 and $15^{\circ}C$ and Promalin dip pretreatment significantly decreased leaf chlorosis in cut 'Siberia' lilies.

Recently, abnormal leaf chlorosis has been observed in jujube trees of the major production area in Kyongbuk province. To determine possible causes for the observation, physico-chemical properties of the orchard soil and nutrient contents in the jujube trees were investigated. The chlorosis symptoms were categorized into three types based on the site of chlorosis initiation; leaf center, petiole, and intravein. Of the three, leaf center chlorosis was the most common. The symptom occurred more frequently in Ihyeon, Gyuam, and Geugrag soil series with previous history of apple orchard. In general, the soil and the tree showing leaf chlorosis had lesser nutrient contents than normal except P, Fe, and Zn. In particular, Mg contents in leaf, branchlet, and fruit of the tree were as much as 4 times lesser than those in normal tree; the soil also had 7.8 times lesser Mg contents. The results indicate that the abnormal leaf chlorosis in jujube tree may be caused by nutrient deficiency in soil and could be cured by proper fertilization.

Recently, the tropospheric ozone has gained a global attention for its adverse effect on vegetation as well as its contribution to the global warming. Although a number of studies have been carried out for the urban ozone, the effect of ozone on vegetation is still largely unknown in Korea. The present work aimed at performing the first evaluation of forest damage by ozone using the national air monitoring data from the year 2000 to the year 2005. Moreover, it also explored the relevance of adverse effect of ozone to the recent events on leaf chlorosis of black locust, Robinia pseudo-acacia, leading to early foliage widely observed in Korea since 2001. In the nineties, forest damages caused by ozone such as leaf chlorosis occurred in Europe and North America and led to invoke comprehensive field and laboratory studies. As a result, AOT40, implying the accumulated dose over a threshold 40 ppb, was developed to assess the forest damage by ozone. 19 air monitoring stations were selected across Korea to calculate AOT40 from the year 2000 to the year 2005. The calculated AOT40 generally increased during April and May and reached the maximum after May. The increase of AOT40 diminished substantially from the mid-June as the rainy season started. The calculated AOT40 in the nine rural sites from the year 2002 to th ε year 2005 ranged from 6.8 to 29.4 ppm-hr. And all the AOT40 at th ε year 2005 exceeded the critical value of 10 ppm-hr for forest damage. Morevoer the calculated AOT40 of Korea appeared higher than the AOT40 of Europe in the year 2004/2005 and comparable to the AOT40 of China in the year 2000. Despite the high levels of the calculated AOT40 since the year 2001 and the consistency of time of seasons between high AOT40 values and occurrence of chlorosis of black locust, further studies are required to conclude that the chlorosis of black locust occurred from the year 2001 to the year 2005 were resulted from a damage by ozone.

During the period of 1975∼77, a survey and an investigation were carried out to estimate the frequency of lime-chlorosis in the natural vegetation in Korea and the relationships between plants and calcareous soils. The symptoms of lime-chlorosis were observed in flowering plants in the calcareous areas of Weonju (I, II), Yeongweol(I, II), Jecheon, Danyang and Samcheok. Although the species found to be lime-chlorotic on at least one occasion numbered 60, the total quantity of lime-chlorotic foliage observed was small. Severe lime-chlorosis of Capsicuym annuum in agricultural fields was found out at Danyang. However, some of the species which were of widespread occurrence in affected areas showed no lime-chlorosis. The comparison of the inorganic components in calcareous soils in lime-chlorotic and normal leaves showed that the essential mineral nutrients substantially less soluble in water in alkaline than in acid conditions and calcifuges planted on calcareous soils often show visual signs resembling those of P or Fe deficiency.

The effects of ozone (O$_{3}$) exposures on chlorophyll content of trembling aspen(Populus tremuliodes) rooted cuttings were studied. Ozone was treated with 100 ppb fumigation for 6 hours per day, for three consecutive days per week in open-top chamber. The ozone exposures caused severe foliage damage expressed in necrotic patches and extensive chlorosis. Degradation of chlorophyll was observed mostly in mature leaves. The chlorophyll response to ozone exposure maintained a similar pattern during all experimental seasons and plant materials, Significant genetic variation in O$_{3}$ responses was revealed by differences in sensitivies among clones.

Cucumber mosaic virus(CMV) was occurred on red pepper showing vein chlorosis or vein necrosis with the incidence rate of 52% from 62 specimens collected in natural fields. Among 32 samples infected with CMV, the specimens of 22 red pepper leaves showing vein chlorosis were infected singly with CMV-VCH. CMV-VCH induced vein chlorosis on the inoculated leaves, and vein banding and vein necrosis on the upper leaves of Nicotiana glutinosa, and then killed after showing bud necrosis. The typical symptoms of vein banding, malformation and blister were produced on the upper leaves of Nicotiana benthamiana and N. tabacum 'Ky-57' without symptoms on the inoculated leaves. The commercial cultivars of 'Bugang', 'Manitta' and 'Gwariput' were shown the typical symptom of vein chlorosis by the mechanical inoculation of CMV-VCH. CMV-VCH was detected specifically by RT-PCR. Virus particles of CMV-VCH were isometric shape having 30 nm diameter. Ultraviolet absorption of purified CMV-VCH was maximum at 260 nm and minimum at 242 nm. The ratio of A260/A280 was 1.71. CMV-VCH had the single nucleo-protein having the molecular weight of 24.5 kDa.
