The depth and spread of root systems and the density of root branching affect the success and survival of plants subjected to drought. The type and size of root systems are controlled by heredity and soil conditions. There are also important interaction between roots and shoots; roots are dependent on shoots for carbohydrates, growth regulators, and certain vitamins, and shoots are dependent on roots for water, minerals, and certain growth regulators. Pinus thunbergii Parlatore had most of roots in the top 20cm of soil, and had little short of roots in the less than 80cm of soil. Average of root density was $270cm/cm^3$ in the upper soil(0~20cm). Root density of Pinus thunbergii Parlatore was similar to that of Cryptomeria japonica. There is no saying that Pinus thunbergii Parlatore has an advantage over Cryptomeria japonica in the drought. This data will be used to the root density values in the simulation model of black pine stands.

봄철 더덕순 채취(採取)가 더덕의 수량(收量) 및 품질(品質)에 미치는 영향(影響)을 구명(究明)하기 위하여 1992년부터 1994년까지 3년간 시험한 결과(結果)를 요약(要約)하면 다음과 같다. 1. 더덕순 채취별(採取別) 생육(生育)은 채취회수(採取回數)가 많을수록 생육은 부진하였으며, 종자에서도 중량(重量)이 가벼워지는 경향이었다. 2. 더덕순 채취수량(採取收量)은 3회(回) 채취구(採取區)에서 3년간 29.5MT/ha으로 가장 높았고, 가식률(可食率)은 1회 채취구(採取區)가 100%로 가장 높게 나타났다. 3. 더덕뿌리에 있어서 더덕순 채취(採取)는 무채취(無採取)에 비(比)하여 오히려 품질(品質) 및 수량(收量)의 감소(減少)를 나타내었으며, 채취가능(採取可能) 회수(回數)는 1회(回) 채취(採取)정도였고 그 이상(以上)은 수량(收量) 및 품질저하(品質低下)로 채취(채취)가 불가능하였다.

The individual and combined effects of acidic rain, Mg deficiency (-Mg) and Al surplus (＋Al) on the growth of shoots and roots of pitch pine seedlings and the effect of humic substances (Lit) on Al toxicity were investigated. The growth of height and dry matter were not significantly less for pitch pine seedlings sprayed with simulated acid rain (SAR) of pH 3.5 than for those sprayed with SAR of pH 5.6. But treatments of Al and ＋Al-Mg in soil solution reduced the growth of seedlings in terms of height of shoots, and dry matter of shoots or roots. Effect of Mg deficiency on the growth of seedlings was apparent only when Al was treated simutaneously. The growth of seedlings, regardless of rain pH, decreased in the following order: control=-Mg>Lit＋Al>＋Al>＋Al-Mg. Treatments of Al and ＋Al-Mg in soil solution reduced the total length of secondary and teritary roots of seedlings regardless of rain pH, and decreased in the following order: the primary root

The growth of red pepper plants was enhanced by treatment with the rhizobacterium, Bacillus cereus MJ-1. Red pepper shoots showed a 1.38-fold increase in fresh weight (fw) and roots showed a 1.28-fold fw gain. This plant growth-promoting rhizobacterium (PGPR) has been reported to produce gibberellins (GAs). Other GAs-producing rhizobacteria, Bacillus macroides CJ-29 and Bacillus pumilus CJ-69, also enhanced the fw of the plants. They were less effective than B. cereus MJ-1, though. The endogenous GAs content of pepper shoots inoculated with MJ-1 was also higher than in shoots inoculated with CJ-29 or CJ-69. When inoculated with MJ-1, bacterial colonization rate of the roots was higher than that of roots inoculated with CJ-29 or CJ-69. These results support the idea that the plant growth-promoting effect of the bacteria also positively related with the efficiency of root colonization by the bacteria. In addition, we identified the major endogenous GAs of the red pepper as originating from both the early C-13 hydroxylation and the early non C-13 hydroxylation pathways, with the latter being the predominant pathway of GA biosynthesis in red pepper shoots.

In Japan, propagation of cyclamen is mainly from seedlings. However, seeds are expensive and germination is slow and non..uniform. Therefore, to achieve genetically uniform propagation, multiplication must be vegetative. The rooted tuberous stems without shoots as sources of explants were cultured on the media containing BA and sucrose. After 30 days cultivation, tuberous roots were produced from the root ends attached to a tuberous stem and its capability was dependent on the type of media. The highest percentage of tuberous root formation was observed in Culture on the medium of 1/3 MS containing 0.05mgL$^{-1}$ NAA, 0.5mg L$^{-1}$ BA and 5% sucrose. Growth rates of the tuberous roots were greatly influenced by the cutting positions of a root in explants. The highest growth of was observed if small amount of root end was cut at initiation of tissue culture.

The effects of salicylic acid(SA) and water deficit on growth and proline accumulation were investigated in cucumber(Cucurmis sativus L.) seedlings. Exogenous application of SA(100 $\mu$M-1 mM) led to a noticeable decrease in root and shoot growth, and dry weight of seedlings. Anatomical observation on leaf of cucumber revealed that the thickness of all leaf tissue components decreased in SA-treated plants. The effect was most pronounced on the width of the adaxial epidermis. In the separate effects of SA(0, 100, 500 and 1000 $\mu$M) and water deficit induced by PEG(0, 4.4, 7.0 and 9.6 %) on growth, the water deficit treatments had greater effects on growth traits than SA. Combinations of SA and PEG(SA+PEG) decreased shoot and root dry matter, and root length. Proline increased slightly in SA-treated seedlings, but exhibited a marked increase in water deficit application. Combinations of SA+PEG induced higher proline in both shoots and roots than SA stress alone. Shoots had higher proline than roots. Our data support a role of SA potentiating the osmotic stress response of germinating cucumber seedling.

The effects of salicylic acid (SA) on growth and proline were investigated in cucumber seedlings. Exogenous application of SA(100 uM - 1mM) led to a noticeable decrease in root and shoot growth, and dry weights of seedlings. Anatomical observation on leaf anatomy of cucumber revealed that the thickness of all leaf tissue components decreased in SA-treated plants. The effect was most promounced on the width of the adaxial epidermis. In the separate and simultaneous effects of SA and water deficit induced by PEG on growth and proline accumulation, the water deficit treatments had greater effects on growth traits and proline content than SA. Combinations of SA and PEG decreased dry matter and root length, and resulted in higher proline in both shoots and roots than SA stress alone. Shoots had higher proline than roots.

The graminicides fluazifop-p-butyl and sethoxydim effectively controlled annual grass weeds in 1,2 and year old ginseng crops during a 2 year study. Ginseng plants in the graminicide treated plots showed an early senescence of the shoots ; and at harvest the average root weight (g/root) and yield (kg/m) were slightly lower in these plants than in the untreated check plots. Roots of the graminicide treated plots remained viable to regenerate shoots. The greenhouse study indicated that shoot growth and seed development in ginseng plants were more sensitive to the graminicide treatment than the roots.

A Pythium species was isolated from roots of lisianthus (Eustoma grandiflorum) showing wilt symptoms and reduced growth in a greenhouse at Ichon, Kyonggi-do in 1997. The Pythium species was identified as Pythium spinosum Sawada based on various mycological characteristics. The isolate was strongly pathogenic when inoculated to root of lisianthus plants in pots. The diseased plants showed typical symptoms of root and crown rot, resulting in reduced growth of roots and shoots, and consequently wilting of the above ground part of plants.
