A semi-selective agar medium was developed for detecting and enumerating Colletotrichum scovillei in chili (Capsicum annum) plant material. Potato-dextrose-agar(PDA) was used as the basic medium. The composition of the semi-selective agar medium was established after several attempts to favor the development of C. scovillei and inhibit the growth of other fungi and bacteria. The semi-selective agar medium contained PDA amended with pyribencarb and pydiflumetofen at 40 ㎍ mL^-1 each and streptomycin at 100㎍ mL^-1 for preventing bacterial growth. The pH was adjusted to 4.8 with 85% lactic acid. The inhibition of the mycelial growth of C. scovillei was significantly less than that of most other fungi including Fusarium species when grown on the semi-selective medium. C. scovillei was detected from naturally infected chili plants by plating fruit and stem tissue suspensions on the semi-selective medium, which was found to be reliable and quantifiable. This was the first report of a semi-selective agar medium to detect the presence of C. scovillei in naturally infected chili tissue.

In this study, the physical properties of the medium and changes in the wood chemical composition of the sawdust were investigated during the cultivation of oak mushroom sawdust bags, and the following results were obtained. After inoculation, the weight of the medium decreased during the incubation period. It is determined that this is not due to evaporation of moisture containing the medium or decomposition of sawdust, but to decomposition of rice bran, a low molecular substance added to the medium. It was confirmed that the moisture content of the medium was steadily increased during incubation, and it was estimated that the organic substrates such as rice brane in the medium was decomposed by mycelium, and water, one of the decomposition products of organic substrates, caused an increase in the moisture content of the medium. Along with the increase in the harvest of oak mushrooms, the proportion of organic substances such as holocellulose and lignin, the main components of the wood cell wall of sawdust, steadily decreased. In particular, the degradation characteristics of the wood cell wall component of shiitake, which is a white rot fungi, were confirmed by higher lignin reduction rate than that of holocellulose. On the other hand, ash, which is an inorganic material, increased with an increase in the number of mushroom harvests. The increase in the amount of ash in the medium may have been due to the decrease in the organic matter content such as holocellulose and lignin.

This study was carried out to develop the propagation system using in vitro induced- microtubers of yams (Dioscorea alata L.). Effects of kinds of media, mineral composition, sucrose concentration (0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10%), photoperiod (0, 8, 12, 16, 24h), and growth regulators (NAA, IAA, ZR, JA-Me, ABA) on the development of microtubers, roots, and shoots in nodal stem segment cultures of D. alata L. were evaluated. Microtuberization in nodal stem segment occurred on all the media supplemented with growth regulator and sucrose. Among basic media, 1/2MS medium was the best in microtuber induction. NAA was shown to be the most effective among the growth regulators. Optimal NAA concentration was 1mg/l. The microtuberization was the highest at the concentration of 6% sucrose. When the nodal stem segment were cultured under darkness, the tuberization was increased markedly compared to those cultured under light condition. It was also noticeable that the culture in medium with NAA produced only microtubers and roots, but no shoots, in nodal segments. In this study, the optimal medium composition for microtuberization in nodal stem segment was found to be 1/2MS medium supplemented with 1mg/l NAA and 6% sucrose under dark condition at $25^{\circ}C$.

A series of experiments were conducted to suggest efficient in vitro germination conditions to improve germination rate and aseptic seedling production in chicory and garland chrysanthemum. For this purpose, various levels of NaOCl concentration and soaking treatment time combinations were tasted. Fifteen minutes of soaking treatment with 5% NaOCl solution significantly improved germination and seedling formation percentages and prevented contamination in both chicory 'Precole' and 'Chiavari' and garland chrysanthemum 'Okiku 3'. There was no significant difference in germination response between MS and 1/2 MS medium compositions, but germination and seedling formation were delayed as sucrose concentration increased. Although petri-dish among various culture containers gave rise to improved germination responses in chicory 'Precole', there was no significant difference in germination responses among culture container types in chicory 'Chiavari' and garland chrysanthemum 'Okiku 3'. The ultrasonic treatment stimulated germination and seedling formation in both chicory cultivars but there was no effect in garland chrysanthemum 'Okiku 3'. The results suggested 15 minutes with 5% NaOCl for seed sterilization, 1/2 MS medium with no sucrose and petri-dish as proper medium composition and culture container, and 120 minutes with 5% NaOCl solution of ultrasonic treatment as promoting method for in vitro germination in chicory and garland chrysanthemum.

This experiment was carried out to investigate the effect of Maesil extract on the acid production and growth of yoghurt starter in the skim milk medium. The Maesil extract was added to skim milk medium fur 1% to 9% and the medium was fermented by single or mixed culture of 4 types of lactic acid bacteria(Streptococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus, bulgaricus, Lactobacillus casei). The chemical composition of Maesil, the changes in acid production (titratable acidity, pH) and number of viable cells of the medium during lactic fermentation in skim milk added with Maesil extract, and the keeping quality of curd yoghurts containing Maesil extract have determined. The composition of Maesil were 0.4% crude ash, 4.1% dietary fiber, 4.66%l citric acid, 0.264% total sugars and 405.34mg% vitamin C. The addition of Maesil extract stimulated the acid production and propagation of the lactic acid bacteria. Among the treatments tested, the addition of 3% Maesil extract with the mixed culture of Streptococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus acidophilus and Lactobacillus casei produced the highest amount of acid(1.23%) and showed the highest number of viable cell counts(3.6$\times$10$^{11}$ cfu/mL). When the curd yoghurts containing 3% Maesil extract with the mixed culture of the lactic acid bacteria were kept at 4$^{\circ}C$ and 2$0^{\circ}C$ for 30 days, it was showed that the changes of titratable acidity, pH and number of viable cell counts of the lactic acid bacteria were not significantly different during storage. Therefore the keeping quality of the curd yoghurts adding 3% Maesil extract showed relatively good at the shelf-life.

Methanol-utilizing bacterium isolated from sewage samples in Seoul showed optimal temperature and pH of $33^{\circ}C$ and 7.1 for growth, respectively. The maximum specific growth rate was $0.42hr^{-1}$. The minimum medium composition was reconstituted depending on the surplus and the deficit of each component in the basal medium at steady state. The optimal composition was given as(g/l); Methanol 40, $(NH_4)_2\;SO_42, \;KH_2PO_4\;1.5, \;K_2HPO_4\;0.2, \;H_3PO_4\;0.79, \;Na_2HPO_4{\cdot}12H_2O\;0.15, \;MgSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O\;1.5, \;FeSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O\;0.034, \;MnSO_4{\cdot}4H_2O\;0.005, \;CuSO_4{\cdot}5H_2O\;0.0027, \;CaCl_2{\cdot}2H_2O\;0.25, \;ZnSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O\;0.007, \;(NH_4)_6\;Mo_7O_{24}{\cdot}4H_2O\;0.00048, \;H_3BO_3\;0.00068, \;CoCl_2\; 0.00024$ Under the continuous culture with optimum medium the maximum cell productivity was 3.8g/1/hr at dilution rate $0.23hr^{-1}$. Maximum cell concentration and its protein content were 19.5g/l and 70% at dilution rate of $0.1hr^{-1}$, respectively.
