This Study was carried out to investigate on the environmental effects of golf courses and to find a solution to the negative effects in Korea. The results were ai follows. 1. There were 152 golf courses opened in December 2000. 113 golf courses were member-ship and 39 golf courses were public. Users (golfer) were over 12,000,000 in 2000. 2. Total area of golf courses was 0.8% as compared with total area of farmland in 1999. Total amount of agricultural chemicals used in golf courses was 0.3% of total amount of agricultural chemicals used in Korea. The remaining amount of agricultural chemicals in golf courses tested were almost below the permitted limits. 3. Recently, total amount of fertilizers in green decreased 5~7g/$m^2$/year as compared with the recommended. 4. The control by antagonistic microorganisms and the fertilizing of the organic matter or the organic fertilizer were effective to decrease the amount of agricultural chemicals used. To success the control of microorganisms, active antagonistic microorganisms had to be applied over the recommended dose eve교day. Though fertilizing of organic fertilizer, slow release fertilizer, was effective to suppress dollar spot, necrotic ring spot. fungicides were required as a supplementary means when disease symptom was very heavy. 5. Zoysiagrass was fertilized intensively from May to August. Cool-season grasses were fertilized intensively from March to May and September to October. The fall fertilizing of Zoysiagrass was carried out to the begining of October. The fall fertilizing of cool-season grasses were carried out to the end of November or the begining of December. The fertilizing amount of Zoysiagrass was 10g/$m^2$/year. The fertilizing amount of bentgrass was 25~27g/$m^2$/year.

The virus isolated from white clover, Trifolium repens showing mosaic symptom was identified as bean yellow mosaic virus (BYMV) based on the host range, physical properties, aphid transmission, serology and morphology of the virus particles. Chenopodium amaranticolor and C. quinoa produced local lesions on the inoculated leaves and chlorotic spot on the upper leaves. Broad bean and cowpea produced local lesions on the inoculated leaves and mosaic with vein necrotic symptoms on the upper leaves. French bean showed vein necrosis on the inoculated leaves, yellow mosaic on the upper leaves and bud blight. The average size of virus particles was 740nm in length. The virus was also transmitted by Myzus persicae. The thermal inactivation point of the virus isolate was $60\;to\;65^{\circ}C$, the dilution end point $10^{-3}\;-\;10^{-4}$ and the longevity in vitro was 3 days Serological tests with the virus purified from Trifolium repens were positive to BYMV antiserum.

$Potato$ $virus$ $X$ (PVX) replication is precisely regulated by regulatory viral sequences and by viral and/or host proteins. In a previous study, we identified a 54-kDa cellular tobacco protein that bound to a region within the first 46 nucleotides (nt) of the 5' non-translated region (NTR) of the viral genome. Optimal binding was dependent upon the presence of an ACCA sequence at nt 10-13. To identify host factors that bind to 5' NTR elements including AC-rich sequences as well as stemloop 1 (SL1), we used northwestern blotting and matrixassisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry for peptide mass fingerprinting. We screened several host factors that might affect PVX replication and selected a candidate protein, $Nicotiana$ $tabacum$ WRKY transcription factor 1 (NtWRKY1). We used a $Tobacco$ $rattle$ $virus$ (TRV)-based virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) system to investigate the role of NtWRKY1 in PVX replication. Silencing of $WRKY1$ in $Nicotiana$ $benthamiana$ caused lethal apical necrosis and allowed an increase in PVX RNA accumulation. This result could reflect the balancing of PVX accumulation in a systemic $N.$ $benthamiana$ host to maintain PVX survival and still produce a suitable appearance of mosaic and mottle symptoms. Our results suggest that PVX may recruit the WRKY transcription factor, which binds to the 5' NTR of viral genomic RNA and acts as a key regulator of viral infection.

Citrus mosaic sadwavirus (CiMV) is a closely related virus with the Satsuma dwarf virus (SDV) along with Navel orange infectious mottling virus (NIMV), Natsudaidai dwarf virus (NDV), and Hyugagatsu virus (HV). The present study found that the typical symptoms of CiMV-infected citrus fruits include the appearance of dark blue speckles or ringspots on fruit rinds and the browning of oil glands in the spots as rind coloring began. As rind coloring progressed, the spots gradually faded, whereas the browning of the oil glands worsened to the point that the tissues surrounding the oil glands became necrotic. In very early satsuma mandarins (Citrus unshiu 'Miyamoto Wase') and 'Setoka' cultivar (C. hybrid 'Setoka') of late-maturity citrus, the symptomatic fruits were eventually dropped. And in early satsuma mandarin (C. unshiu 'Miyakawa Wase'), the peel hardness of the virus-infected fruit (1,618.3 ± 305.5, g-force) was more than twice as hard as that of the healthy fruit (636.5 ± 39.1, g-force). The ratio of flesh weight to total fruit weight was higher for the healthy fruit (77.3 ± 1.7%) than for the infected fruit (70.7 ± 0.6) and peel puffing was more severe in the infected fruit (2.9 ± 0.4 mm) than in the healthy fruit (0.9 ± 0.2 mm). The soluble solids content in infected citrus fruits was less values than the healthy fruit by 0.5-1.5 °Brix. These findings reveal that CiMV infection on citrus trees reduces the fruit quality of citrus.

The internal structures of Arabidopsis thaliana infected with beet curly top virus (BCTV) were studied by light microscopy. Hyperplasia was observed in the inflorescence stems of Arabidopsis thaliana ecotype Sei-O at 2 weeks after BCTV-Logan inoculation and callus was induced on symptomatic tissues at 4 weeks after virus inoculation. The infection processes were revealed as follows: hyperplasia of phloem tissue, necrosis of hyperplastic phloems, lacuna formation of necrotic tissues, elongation and enlargement of cortex and epidermal cells surrounding the lacuna formed phloem tissues, induction of cell division in the enlarged cortex and epidermal cells, and induction of callus tissue. Callus formation on Arabidopsis was caused by the virus infection, and virus inclusion body was observed in both phloem and callus tissue by azure-A staining.

생쥐에 PMSG와 hOG를 주사한 후 난자-난구복합체의 미세구조의 변화를 환찰함으로세 난구세포의 분산현상을 규명하고자 본 실험을 행하였다. 난자는 PMSG 주사후 48시간까지 별 다른 변화가 없었고 다만 표면막에 miGrOVilli와 Coaled pit의 수가 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 그러나 PMSG-hCG주사 12시간 후에 배란된 난자의 표면은 microvilli와 coated pit가 사라져서 평평하게 되었다. 방사관세포는 PMSG주사 48시간 후메 밀착해 있던 투명대와 간격이 생기기 시작하였고, 투명대를 통관하여 난자의 표면막과 desmosome으로 연결되어 있던 세포질돌기도 퇴화의 징후를 보였다. PMSG-hCG주사 후에는 급속히 격리, 분산되고 세포질돌기는 퇴화하였으며 dermo-some도 사라겼다. 난구세포들은 대조군에서 밀집되어 있었고 거의 gap junction으로 연결되어 있었는데, PMSG주사 24시간 후에는 모양이 등글게 되고 더욱 밀집되었으며, 48시간 후에는 거의 loose junction으로 연결되었고 분산되기 시작하였다. 결국 PMSG-hCG주사 If시간 후에는 완전히 분산되었고 거의 모두 핵응축과 괴사현상을 보였다. 난자- 난구 복합체의 분산은 배란전에 PMSG에 의하여 시작되고 hCG에 의하여 촉진 완결된다는 것이 확실하다. The ultrastructural changes of the oocyte-cumulus complexes of mouse alter injection of PMSG and hOG have been investigated in order to elucidate expansion phenomenon of the cumulus cells. The oocytes until 48 hours after PMSC injection showed no change except a tendency of decrease in numbers of microvilli and the coated pelts on surface membrane. However, surface membrane of the ovulated oocytes 12 hours after PMSC-hCC injection changed to be smooth due to disapperance of microvilli and coated pits. Corona radiate cells tightly attaching to zona pe]lucida 48 hours after PMSC injection began to be detached and their cytoplasmic processes connected by desmosome to oocyte surface membrane showed a degeneration symptom. Thereafter the detachment and degeneration were accelerated by hCG injection and followed by disappearence of desmosome. The cumulus cells in control group were compacted and connected by almost 9aP junction each another. Ite cumulus cells 24 hours after PMSG injection were changed to be round form and more tightly compacted. However, the cumulus cells 48 hours after PMSG injection were connected by almost loose junction and showed the beginning of expansion. Eventuallv, the cumulus cells 12 hours a%or PMSG-hCG injection were completely expanded, and became pvknotic and necrotic in most It is clear that the expansion of oocyte-cumulus complex were initiated by PMSC, then accelerated and completed by hCG before ovulation.

Here we focused on tip-burn and blossom-end rot (BER) symptoms in the tomato plants expressing the constitutively active form of $Ca^{2+}/H^+$ antiporter (sCAX1) and/or a Ca-binding protein (calreticulin, CRT) genes during their whole growth period. Conclusively we demonstrated that CRT is able to suppress the tip-burn and BER symptoms that were induced by sCAX1. Under poor nutrition condition, tomato plants overexpressing sCAX1 showed severe necrotic collapses in both roots and shoot polar tissues, which are in accordance with $Ca^{2+}$ deficient symptoms frequently observed in an agricultural cultivation of tomato. Reciprocal grafting trials using sCAX1 and wild type plants revealed that the tip-burn symptom by sCAX1 overexpression is not caused by hindrance of $Ca^{2+}$ uptake from soil. We constructed CRT overexpressing transgenic tomatoes, and crossed them with sCAX1 transgenic plants to investigate the effects of CRT on the symptoms of sCAX1 transgenic plants. Co-expression of sCAX1 and CRT significantly suppressed the $Ca^{2+}$ deficient symptoms of sCAX1 transgenic plants. Those results suggest the model that $Ca^{2+}$ homeostasis disturbed by the overexpression of sCAX1 may be suppressed by the co-expression of CRT.

The Paprika plant infected with Pepper mild mottle virus (PMMoV) do not produce commercial fruit as causing necrotic spots symptom on the fruit. Ten cultivars of paprika were analyzed to select the resistance cultivars against PMMoV pathotypes, $P_{1.2}$ and $P_{1.2.3}$, using bioassay and genetic markers. $L^1$, $L^3$, and $L^4$ genotypes expressing resistance to the pathotypes existed in those cultivars but $L^2$ genotype did not. $L^4L^4$ in cvs. Easy and Magnifico, $L^4L^3$ in cvs. Scirocco and Orange glory F1, $L^4L^1$ in cv. Special F1, $L^3L^3$ in cvs. Fiesta, Piero and Derby, and $L^3L^1$ in Cupra and Mazzona F1 were identified with SCAR and CAPS markers. The resistant cvs. to the 2 pathotypes were Magnipico, Easy, Scirocco F1, Orange glory and Special F1 and the susceptible cvs. were Fiesta, Piero, Derby, Cupra and Mazzona F1. The susceptible cvs. of the absence of $L^4$ genotype showed systemic infection when inoculated with PMMoV-$P_{1.2.3}$. However, those cvs. despite the presence of $L^3$ genotype showed vein necrosis on the inoculated leaf and hypersensitive necrosis symptom on the upper parts when inoculated with PMMoV-$P_{1.2}$.
