This study was conducted to develop the on-line monitoring system for plant growth responses. The system consisted of two parts. One system was the measuring system and the other was its controlling system. The established measuring systems were the ultrasonic wave sensor driver for height of plant, the potentiometer for diameter of plant stem, and the weighing system with strain gage application for plant weight. Also, computer program for measurement and controlling was developed, and the whole system was tested by the fabricated plant, and the actual plant growth responses were monitored by the system. When monitoring the actual plant growth responses, even the small amount of plant growth resposes could be measured by the system within tolerable error ranges.

Posttranscriptional regulation of RNA metabolism, including RNA processing, intron splicing, editing, RNA export, and decay, is increasingly regarded as an essential step for fine-tuning the regulation of gene expression in eukaryotes. RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) are central regulatory factors controlling posttranscriptional RNA metabolism during plant growth, development, and stress responses. Although functional roles of diverse RBPs in living organisms have been determined during the last decades, our understanding of the functional roles of RBPs in plants is lagging far behind our understanding of those in other organisms, including animals, bacteria, and viruses. However, recent functional analysis of multiple RBP family members involved in plant RNA metabolism and elucidation of the mechanistic roles of RBPs shed light on the cellular roles of diverse RBPs in growth, development, and stress responses of plants. In this review, we will discuss recent studies demonstrating the emerging roles of multiple RBP family members that play essential roles in RNA metabolism during plant growth, development, and stress responses.

We previously found that the antibacterial activity of silver phosphate crystals on Escherichia coli depends on their structure. We here show that the cubic form of silver phosphate crystal (SPC) can also be applied to inhibit the growth of a plant-pathogenic Pseudomonas syringae bacterium. SPC pretreatment resulted in reduced in planta multiplication of P. syringae. Induced expression of a plant defense marker gene PR1 by SPC alone is suggestive of its additional plant immunity-stimulating activity. Since SPC can simultaneously inhibit P. syringae growth and induce plant defense responses, it might be used as a more effective plant disease-controlling agent.

Ethylene is a key gaseous hormone that controls various physiological processes in plants including growth, senescence, fruit ripening, and responses to abiotic and biotic stresses. In spite of some of these positive effects, the gas usually inhibits plant growth. While chemical fertilizers help plants grow better by providing soil-limited nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphate, overusage often results in growth inhibition by soil contamination and subsequent stress responses in plants. Therefore, controlling ethylene production in plants becomes one of the attractive challenges to increase crop yields. Some soil bacteria among plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPRs) can stimulate plant growth even under stressful conditions by reducing ethylene levels in plants, hence the term "stress controllers" for these bacteria. Thus, manipulation of relevant genes or gene products might not only help clear polluted soil of contaminants but contribute to elevating the crop productivity. In this article, the beneficial soil bacteria and the mechanisms of reduced ethylene production in plants by stress controllers are discussed.

관행적 화학농약의 식물병 관리 및 치료의 한계적인 효과는 유익한 세균이나 미생물을 이용한 식물병 제어 방법 개발의 필요성을 나타낸다. 지속 가능한 농업은 특히 다양한 항생물질과 이차 대사 생성물을 생산하는 방선균의 농업적 중요성을 시사하며, Streptomyces globiosporus SP6C4균주와 Streptomyces sp. S8은 강력한 항균 작용을 가지고 있으며, 지속가능한 농업에서 작물 생장을 개선하기 위한 우수한 균주로 인정되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 다양한 질소원과 탄소원을 활용하여 대상 미생물 Streptomyces 두 균주의 생장을 촉진시키는 방법을 조사하였다. L-글루타민과 L-시스테인이 첨가된 조건에서 S. globiosporus SP6C4와 Streptomyces sp. S8 균주의 포자 생성 능력이 증가하였으며, 각 균주의 생장이 촉진되었다. 이러한 결과는 유용 미생물의 대량배양 기술의 범위 확장과 농업미생물의 실용화에 기여할 것으로 생각된다.

본 연구는 토양으로부터 분리한 균주를 대상으로 식물병 방제활성 및 식물 생장촉진 활성을 확인하고자 하였다. 식물병원성 곰팡이에 대한 길항능을 통해 방제기능을 확인할 수 있었으며, 이는 siderophore 및 항생물질 생성 등에 기인되는 것으로 판단된다. 또한 ANG40의 경우에는 amylase, cellulase, xylanase와 같은 세포외 효소활성을 갖고 있음을 확인하였다. 이 외에도 질소 고정능, 인산 가용화능, siderophore 생성능 등 다양한 실험을 통해 식물 생장에 필수적인 질소, 인, 철 등을 식물이 흡수 가능한 형태로 변화시켜 식물 생장에 도움을 줄 수 있을 것으로 기대된다. 또한 6종의 분리균주는 모두 에틸렌 생성과 연관된 IAA를 생성하였으며, 그 중에서도 ANG51의 경우에는 ACC deaminase 활성도 갖고 있음을 확인하였다. 따라서, 최종 선별된 Pseudomonas geniculata ANG3, Exiguobacterium acetylicum ANG40, Burkholderia stabilis ANG51을 이용하여 식물 생장촉진 활성과 식물 병원성 곰팡이에 항진균 활성을 갖는 새로운 생물학적 제제로써 이용 가능성을 제시하였다.

This study was undertaken to find a new formulation of soil amendment, and selection of antogonists and to effectively control brown and large patch of turfgrasses caused by Rhizoctoniz solani AG1-1 and AG 2-2. Fourteen inorgainc chemicals (1%, w/w) were added individually in vitro, and some chemicals showed suppressiveness to R. solani. Alum suppressed effectively mycelial growth of R. solani in the range of 17 to 77% as compared with control. The four chemicals such as Al2(SO4)3, alum, CaO, and NH4NO3 were finally selected. Out of three organic compounds, composted pine bark (CPB) showed prominent suppressive effect as compared with milled alfalfa and pine leaves. After inoculation of R. solani isolates AG-1 and AG2-2 on the turf seedlings, water soaked lesions and blight symptoms were developed on the whole seedlings. According to inhibition zone method, mycelial growth of the fungus were greatly suppressed by culture filterates of the antagonists, Gliocladium virens (Gl1-) and Pseudomonas sp. (P713). CPB soil amendment mixed with antagonists (1% w/w) controlled not only brown and large patch of turfgrasses, but also promote the good growth of the seedlings. In addition, the controlling effect was maintained more than 30 days. Especially, the controlling effect of two antagonists was similar to Cㅖㅠ soil amendment with the antagonists and also stimulated a favorable growth of the seedlings. Therefore, its is expected that continuous control of Rhizoctonia blight of turfgrasses can be obtained in field by subsequent applications of the antagonists.

Recombinant lipase gene (pYEGA ${\alpha}$ -lip) originated from Bacillus stearothermophillus Ll was overexpressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The lipase gene expression level was compared by controlling a constant specifjc growth rates( ${\mu}$ = 0.03, 0.05, 0.07 and $0.1h^{-1}$. Cell g개wth was successfully controlled at the desired rates by feeding rate of glucose and the formation of by-product or accumulation of the glucose was not observed. Above the growth rate of $0.1h^{-1}$. the desired growth rate could not be achieved caused accumulation of by-products(ethanol). The lipase production increased as the specific growth rate decreased. The specific production rate at the lowest specific growth rater(${\mu}$ =0.03) was above 2- folds than the others.

일몰 후 적색 및 원적색 광처리가 토마토 묘 소질에 미치는 효과를 조사하기 위해 24일간의 광처리 기간동안 12일 간격으로 묘의 초장, 제1절간장, 줄기직경을 측정하였고, 실험 마지막 날에는 묘의 뿌리와 줄기를 분리 건조하여 각 건물중을 측정하였다. 적색광 처리는 식물의 초장을 억제시키는 것으로 나타났고, 원적색광 식물의 초장신장을 촉진하는 결과를 보였다. 적색 및 원적색광 처리가 식물의 초장에 미치는 효과는 광처리 시간이 10분 또는 20분이든 큰 차이가 없었다. 또한, 적색광 처리된 식물의 줄기직경이 대조구 및 원적색광 처리된 식물의 줄기 직경보다 큰 것으로 나타났다. 적색광 처리는 원적색광 처리 및 대조구에 비해 줄기·뿌리의 건물중비가 작았다. 토마토 묘의 충실도에 미치는 광처리 효과는 적색광 처리가 가장 우수한 것으로 나타났고, 원적색광 처리된 묘의 충실도가 가장 낮았으며 광처리 없는 대조구는 그 중간정도의 충실도를 나타내었다.
