Hairy root cultures have demonstrated great promise in terms of their biosynthetic capability toward the production of secondary metabolites, but continue to constitute a major challenge with regard to large-scale cultures. In order to assess the possibility of conducting mass production of biomass, and the extraction of useful metabolites from Panax ginseng. P. ginseng hairy roots, transformed by Rhizobium rhizogenes KCTC 2744, were used in bioreactors of different types and sizes. The most effective mass production of hairy roots was achieved in several differently Sized air bubble bioreactors compared to all other bioreactor types. Hairy root growth was enhanced by aeration, and the production increased with increasing aeration rate in a 1 L bioreactor culture. It was determined that the hairy root growth rate could be substantially enhanced by increases in the aeration rate upto 0.5vvm, but at aeration rates above 0.5vvm, only slight promotions in growth rates were observed. In 20 L air bubble bioreactors, with a variety of inoculum sizes, the hairy roots exhibited the most robust growth rates with an inoculum size of 0.1% (w/v), within the range 0.1 to 0.7% (w/v). The specific growth rates of the hairy root decreased with increases in the inoculum size.

In a recently developed strategy for in-situ treatment of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB), bioaugmentation was used in conjunction with a surfactant, sorbitan trioleate, as a carbon source for the degrader bacteria, along with the monoterpene, carvone, and salicylic acid as inducing substrates. Two bacteria were used for soil inoculants, including Arthrobacter sp. st. B1B and Ralstonia eutrophus H850. This methodology achieved 60% degradation of PCBs in Aroclor 1242 after 18 weeks in soils receiving 34 repeated applications of the degrader bacteria. However, an obvious limitation was the requirement for soil mixing after every soil inoculation. In the research reported here, bioaugmentation and biostimulation treatment strategies were modified by using the earthworm, Pheretima hawayana, as a vector for dispersal and mixing of surface-applied PCB-degrading bacteria and soil chemical amendments. Changes in microbial biomass and microbial community structure due to earthworm effects were examined using DNA extraction and PCR-DGGE of 16S rDNA. Results showed that earthworms effectively promoted biodegradation of PCBs in bioaugmented soils to the same extent previously achieved using physical soil mixing, and had a lesser, but significant effect in promoting PCB biodegradation in biostimulated soils treated with carvone and salicylic acid. The effects of earthworms were speculated to involve many interacting factors including increased bacterial transport to lower soil depths, improved soil aeration, and enhanced microbial activity and diversity.

한국 연안역에서 분리한 4종의 규조류 단종배양체를 대상으로 하여, 카드뮴 농도가 다른 6종류의 배양액에서 최종생체량과 성장률을 측정하였다. Chaetoceros속의 천해역 규조인 GS-12는 0.1ppm의 카드뮴 농도에서 전혀 성장하지 못하였으며, 최종생체량과 성장률에 대한 $IC_{50}$은 각각 0.03 및 0.02 ppm이었다. 조수못에서 분리한 배양체인 NC-37과 NC-29는 카드뮴독성에 대해 내성이 보다 큰 편이었다. 부영양화한 만내에서 분리한 J-21은 극히 높은 카드뮴 내성을 나타내었는데, 최종생체량과 성장률에 대한 $IC_{50}$이 각각 1.07 및 1.92 ppm에 달하였다. 본 연구 걸과는 연안역 규조류 단종배양체의 카드뮴 내성이 서식환경에 따라 차이가 있음을 암시한다. G5-12를 제외한 나머지 3종의 규조류 단종배양체들은 카드뮴압박에 대한 내성이 매우 강하다고 평가하였다.

The removal efficiency of the heavy metals Zn, Pb and Cd by the zoosporic fungal species Saprolegnia delica and the terrestrial fungus Trichoderma viride, isolated from polluted water drainages in the Delta of Nile in Egypt, as affected by various ranges of pH values and different temperature degrees, was extensively investigated. The maximum removal efficiency of S. delica for Zn(II) and Cd(II) was obtained at pH 8 and for Pb(II) was at pH 6 whilst the removal efficiency of T. viride was found to be optimum at pH 6 for the three applied heavy metals. Regardless the median lethal doses of the three heavy metals, Zn recorded the highest bioaccumulation potency by S. delica at all pH values except at pH 4, followed by Pb whereas Cd showed the lowest removal potency by the fungal species and vice versa in case of T. viride. The optimum bio-mass dry weight production by S. delica was found when the fungus was grown in the medium treated with the heavy metal Pb at pH 6, followed by Zn at pH 8 and Cd at pH 8. The optimum biomass dry weight yield by T. viride amended with Zn, Pb and Cd was obtained at pH 6 for the three heavy metals with the maximum value at Zn. The highest yield of biomass dry weight was found when T. viride treated with Cd at all different pH values followed by Pb whilst Zn output was the lowest and this result was reversed in case of S. delica. The maximum removal efficiency and the biomass dry weight production for the three tested heavy metals was obtained at the incubation temperature $20^{\circ}C$ in case of S. delica while it was $25^{\circ}C$ for T. viride. Incubation of T. viride at higher temperatures ($30^{\circ}C\;and\;35^{\circ}C$) enhanced the removal efficiency of Pb and Cd than low temperatures ($15^{\circ}C\;and\;20^{\circ}C$) and vice versa in case of Zn removal. At all tested incubation temperatures, the maximum yield of biomass dry weight was attained at Zn treatment by the two tested fungal species. The bioaccumulation potency of S. delica for Zn was higher than that for Pb at all temperature degrees of incubation and Cd bioaccumulation was the lowest whereas T. viride showed the highest removal efficiency for Pb followed by Cd and Zn was the minor of the heavy metals.

폐광지역 비소오염 토양에 이용될 식물상복원공법으로서 논에서 쉽게 발견되는 피의 적용가능성을 알아보고자 하였다. 식물을 이용한 토양 정화 공법이 가지는 장기간의 처리시간이 소요된다는 단점을 해결하고자 PSM(phosphate-solubilizing microbes)과 EDTA(ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid)를 처리하여 그 상승효과를 관찰하였다. PSM을 처리한 시험구에서는 식물의 바이오매스가 증가하여 비교 시험구에 비하여 비소재거 효율이 약 16% 정도 증가하였다. EDTA 처리구에서는 토양 내 중금속의 이동성야 증가하여 BF(bioaccumulation factor) 는 증가하였으나, EDTA가 식풀의 성장을 저해해 오히려 제거 효율이 20% 정도 감소하는 결과를 가져왔다. 따라서 식물성복원공법에 PSM 및 EDTA의 처리는 식물의 비소 흡수를 어느 정도 증대시킬 수는 있으나, 특히 EDTA를 처리할 경우에는 처리 시기 및 처리량의 선택에 있어서 식물의 성장을 저해하지 않도록 해야 하며, 지속적인 모니터링이 요구된다는 결과를 얻었다.

본 연구는 증가되는 UV-B 환경에 대한 양수(陽樹)와 중성수(中性樹)의 생장 및 생리적 반응을 탐구하고자 자작나무(Betula platyphylla var. japonica Hara)와 물푸레나무(Fraxinus rhynchophylla Hance)의 유묘(幼苗)를 대상으로 14주 동안 3 수준의 UV-B(ambient UV-$B_{BE}$, ambient+3.2, +$5.2\;KJ\;m^{-2}s^{-1}$) lamp가 설치된 야외포장에서 실시되었다. 자작나무와 물푸레나무 유묘의 수고생장(樹高生長), 근원경생장(根元徑生長), 엽면적(葉面積) 및 건물생산(乾物生産)은 UV-B 증가에 의하여 감소되었다. UV-B 증가에 의해 물푸레나무 유묘 잎의 기공저항(氣孔低抗)은 커졌으며, 엽록소(葉綠素), carotenoid 함량의 감소는 자작나무에서 보다 물푸레나무에서 더 뚜렷하였다. UV-B 흡수물질(吸收物質)의 현저한 증가는 나타나지 않았지만 자작나무에 비해 물푸레나무의 경우 다소 증가하는 경향이었다. 이러한 결과들은 UV-B 증가 환경에 대한 공시 두 수종의 생리적(生理的), 생화학적(生化學的) 반응이 다르다는 것을 의미한다.

A tylosin-hyperproductive mutant of S. fradiae MNU20 was isolated among 3500 strains obtaincd from either MNNG- or UV-treated Streptomyces fradiae NRRL2702. The composition of optimal medium for tylosin production was formulated as followed as: 4 g soluble starch, 1 g glucose, 1 g corn steep liquor, 7.5 ml soy bean oil, 0.2 g KH$_{2}$PO$_{4}$, 1 g Na$_{2}$S$_{2}$O$_{3}$$\cdot $5H$_{2}$O, 2 g CaCO$_{3}$, 2 g NaCl, 0.001 g CoCl$_{2}$$\cdot $6H$_{2}$O in 1 liter of distilled water. With the optimal medium, S. fradiae MNU20 was able to produce 159 mg tylosin (g biomass)$^{-1}$, indicating that tylosin productivity of Streptomyces fradiae NRRL2702 was increased 14 times higher by mutation. When the effect of valine, succinate, and natural zeolite on tylosin production was investigated by using the optimal medium, these substances essentially enhanced tylosin production and their addition time during culture period appeared to be critical for the increase of tylosin production.

Continuous degradation of forest in both quality and quantity threatens wood security in the future. Thus in the future, most wood and pulp will be expected to be produced from plantation forests. We attempt to produce superior trees suitable for such plantations with maximum productivity in limited land area. Tree productivity could be enhanced either by promoting growth and wood quality or by reducing loss caused by abiotic and biotic stresses. Genetic transformation techniques may offer ways to improve the productivity by enabling trees to tolerate the stresses or to covert limited resources into big biomass. With the availability of information on various functional genes and gene transfer techniques, it should be possible to develop such trees. In this presentation, our work to produce such trees at Korea Forest Research Institute is briefly introduced.

Well grown trees of ficus bengalensis produce one or more potential inhibitors of seed germination and seedling growth. The aqueous extract of ficus leaf and bark enhanced the shoot length aqueous leaf extract of F. bengalensis. Bark extract of F. bengalensis inhibited the shoot length and root length of the plant at high concentration. Both the bark and leaf extract inhibited the seed germination. The postemergence and preemergence treatment of bark and leaf extract of F. bengalensis reduced the shoot biomass. The result suggest that F. bengalensis may have potential allelochemicals which may be developed as natural herbicides.
