Indoor environments are usually less than optimal for the growth of ferns, especially in regards to the water condition. These studies were performed to investigate responses involved in causing growth of ferns and presume management plan against the water deficit under indoor conditions. The effect of air humidity and soil moisture on the ferns was examined in Adiantume raddianum and Selaginella kraussiana. Results of experiments are as follows; 1. Under a low humidity condition, having a 25-50% RH. ornamental value of ferns decreased much more than under a 90% RH. Under a low soil moisture, such as sand treatment, ornamental value of ferns also decreased. 2. Leaf chlorophyll content, water content and stomata situations increased as air humidity and soil moisture went up. 3. Even if air humidity and soil water were not enough for ferns growth, the extending of irrigation cycle was helpful. 4. Under extremely low air humidity conditions, some water management, namely, using water holding soil or extending of irrigation cycle was desirable. Other methods of increasing air humidity, including water instruments such as ornamental pools, waterfalls, or fountains, grouping plants together were also helpful. But spraying water on leaves increased injury to ferns growth because of excess evaporation from the leaves. Though these studies, we learn that ferns are susceptible to water condition such as air humidity, soil water and water management. If other environmental factos are maintained with optimal conditions, water condition plays an important role in ferns growth in indoor environments.

In this study, the chloroplast (cp) genome sequences from three early diverged leptosporangiate ferns were completed and analyzed in order to understand the evolution of the genome of the fern lineages. The complete cp genome sequence of Osmunda cinnamomea (Osmundales) was 142,812 base pairs (bp). The cp genome structure was similar to that of eusporangiate ferns. The gene/intron losses that frequently occurred in the cp genome of leptosporangiate ferns were not found in the cp genome of O. cinnamomea. In addition, putative RNA editing sites in the cp genome were rare in O. cinnamomea, even though the sites were frequently predicted to be present in leptosporangiate ferns. The complete cp genome sequence of Diplopterygium glaucum (Gleicheniales) was 151,007 bp and has a 9.7 kb inversion between the trnL-CAA and trnV-GCA genes when compared to O. cinnamomea. Several repeated sequences were detected around the inversion break points. The complete cp genome sequence of Lygodium japonicum (Schizaeales) was 157,142 bp and a deletion of the rpoC1 intron was detected. This intron loss was shared by all of the studied species of the genus Lygodium. The GC contents and the effective numbers of codons (ENCs) in ferns varied significantly when compared to seed plants. The ENC values of the early diverged leptosporangiate ferns showed intermediate levels between eusporangiate and core leptosporangiate ferns. However, our phylogenetic tree based on all of the cp gene sequences clearly indicated that the cp genome similarity between O. cinnamomea (Osmundales) and eusporangiate ferns are symplesiomorphies, rather than synapomorphies. Therefore, our data is in agreement with the view that Osmundales is a distinct early diverged lineage in the leptosporangiate ferns.

본 논문은 Boosted Random Ferns 기반의 회전 불변 얼굴 검출 방법을 제안한다. 기존 Random Ferns 의 경우 특징값을 추출할 때 임의로 선택한 두 픽셀의 밝기값 비교를 통하여 이진 특징값을 추출한다. 이 경우 해당 픽셀의 밝기값에 잡음이 포함되면 특징값이 부정확하게 추출되는 문제가 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 임의로 두 블록을 선택하고 해당 블록내 밝기값의 평균을 비교하여 이진 특징값을 추출하였다. 또한 픽셀 위치를 임의로 선택하여 ferns 를 구성하였던 기존의 방법 대신 최고의 분류 성능을 가지는 fern 들을 이용하여 분류기를 구성하기 위해, AdaBoost 의 방법을 Random Ferns 에 맞게 변경하였다. Boosted Random Ferns 를 트리 구조의 cascade 노드에 방향과 각도에 따라 배치하여 연산 속도를 향상시키고 false-positive를 줄이는 효과를 보았다. CMU Rotated Face Database 를 사용하여 평가하였을 때, 기존 Random Ferns 는 false-positive 의 수가 57 개 일 때 66%의 검출률을 보인 반면, Boosted Random Ferns 는 false-positive 의 수가 45 개 일 때 88%의 검출률을 보였다.

Chinese brake fern (Pteris vittata) has potential for application in the phytoremediation of arsenic introduced by lead arsenate-based pesticides. In this study, Chinese brake ferns were used to extract arsenic, mainly in field and greenhouse experiments, and to assess the performance of simultaneous phytoaccumulation of arsenic and lead from homogenized soil in the greenhouse, with the application of EDTA and electric potential. The ferns have been shown to be effective in accumulating high concentrations of arsenic, and extracting both arsenic and lead from the contaminated soil, with the addition of a chelating agent, EDTA. The maximum increase in lead accumulation in the ferns was 9.2 fold, with a 10 mmol/kg addition of EDTA. In addition, the application of EDTA in combination with electric potential increased the lead accumulation in ferns by 10.6 fold at 5 mmol/kg of EDTA and 40 V (dc), compared to controls. Therefore, under application of EDTA and electric potential, Chinese brake fern is able to extract arsenic and lead simultaneously from soil contaminated by lead arsenate.

Although Myanmar is a biodiversity hotspot, little is known about its flora, particularly lycophytes and ferns, due to a lack of intensive inventories. In 2017, work on a total of 299 species of lycophytes and ferns found throughout the country, including 84 species from Natma Taung National Park in the Chin State, was published. However, a comparison of the flora of Myanmar with those of adjacent countries suggests that many more species are likely also to be distributed in this country. In the present study, two field surveys conducted in Natma Taung National Park during 2015 to make a checklist of lycophytes and ferns resulted in the discovery of three fern species not previously recorded in the flora of Myanmar. All occur in other countries in Southeast Asia as well as in other tropical areas. These species are Pteris bella (Pteridaceae), Dryopteris lepidopoda (Dryopteridaceae), and Loxogramme duclouxii (Polypodiaceae). The results will provide valuable information for the Myanmar fern checklist that is currently being prepared.

It was proposed and admitted at 9$^{th}$ FERNS Metting that FERNS countries, while recognizing that Loran-C is very important as a back-up for satellite systems, should consider whether the cost-effectiveness of the system could be improved by making use of its communication facilities to inegrate more closely with satellite system, members were requested to give this proposed consideration before the tenth session of the Council (CS 9/8/1 paragph 6.7). For this matter, Korea is planning to demonstrate treasmitting EUROFIX signals from Pohang station (Master of 9930 Chain) during FERNS meetings.

1. Comparative studies, the number, form and pattern of ramification, on the petiole stele types of 3 orders, 11 families, 41 genera and 104 species of ferns found in Korea were carried out. 2. The number, form and pattern of the ramified steles were found to be different according to the taxa studied. 3. The stele types of petiole may be classified as unibranch, bibranch, tribranch, and polybranch. The species belonging to each stele type were found to have similar embyrological characteristics among them. Therefore, it might be reasonable to assume that the stele type can be used as a basis for classifing family lines. 4. The number of ramified steles in the petiole were found to be in general agreement with that of the leaf traces, though a few exceptional cases were found. 5. It is well known that there is a large degree of disgreement among the taxanomists on the classification of ferns. The classification of ferns by means of petiole stele types may ease this difficulty in certain extent.

This study was carried out to investigate the plant growth of various ferns affected by the shading and fertilizer application and to recommend the appropriate levels of light intensity. Evergreen ferns like Dryopteris nipponensis Koidz., Cyrtomium falcatum (L. f.) Presl, Onychium japonicum (Thunb.) Kunze and deciduous ferns like Athyrium niponicum (Mett.) Hence, Thelypteris decursive-pinnata Ching, Athyrium brevifrons Kodama ex Nakai were used in this experiment. Evergreen ferns showed the best growth in the shading level of 30~60%. The plant growth and ornamental value (leaf color) of these plants were improved according to the fertilizer application in appropriate shading levels. The survival rate remained constantly in all treatments. Deciduous ferns showed the best growth in different shading levels from 0 to 60%. Some treatments showed improved growth according to fertilizer application, whereas survival rate was in the other treatments. There were differences in plant growth of evergreen and deciduous ferns according to fertilizer application, and additional researches must be executed to explain these reponses.

Field work conducted in Natma Taung National Park, Chin State, Myanmar, in 2015 to make a checklist of lycophytes and ferns resulted in the discovery of four fern species not previously recorded in the flora of Myanmar. All occur in other countries in southeastern Asia, and in other tropical areas. The species are as follows: Adiantum monochlamys (Adiantaceae), Ctenitis decurrentipinnata (Dryopteridaceae), Pteris tripartita, and Paragymnopteris vestita (Pteridaceae). These findings will enable us to update the checklist of ferns of Myanmar.
