Plant regeneration via organogenesis from leaf and stipule explants of micropropagated shoots of strawberry (Fragaria $\times$ ananassa cv. Suhong) was achieved. Leaf and stipule explants were detached from shoot-tip cultured shoots and cultured on MS medium with various combinations of BA and NAA under light or dark condition. Shoot regeneration from leaf explant was observed after 3 weeks in culture and was good at the high ratio of BA and NAA among various combination treatments. The highest shoot regeneration frequency from leaf explants was obtained with 1.0 mg/L BA and 0.1 mg/L NAA, in which 31.1% shoot regeneration frequency(1.7 shoots per leaf explant) was yielded. In case of stipule explants, shoot regeneration was largely affected by plant growth regulators during incubation under dark condition for initial 4 weeks but not under continuous light condition. The combination treatment with 2.0 mg/L BA and 0.1 mg/L NAA showed the most excellent shoot regeneration from stipule explants, where 44.4% regeneration frequency(4.0 shoots per explants) obtained. Regenerated shoots were rooted on MS medium with 0.1 mg/L NAA after shoot elongation, and the plantlets regenerated were transferred to soil mixtures with vermiculite and perlite for acclimation.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of a modified filtration system treating non-point source (NPS) pollutants. The developed Best Management Practice (BMP) technology was designed based on the geographical and climatic characteristics of the site. A lab-scale test experiment was conducted using three different hydraulic loading rates representing the first flush flow, average flow and overflow conditions during a rainfall event. Water quality analysis was performed on the water samples taken at the inflow, outflow and infiltration during the test experiment of the lab-scale BMP. Also, the water and mass balance at different hydraulic loading rates was determined. Results from the lab-scale test experiment showed that the lab-scale BMP had a high removal efficiency of 80-90% for all NPS pollutants. The overflow test condition obtained the lowest removal efficiency among the hydraulic loading rates because it gave less opportunity for the pollutants to be filtered and retained inside system. The infiltration ratio was approximately 1 % of the inflow and outflow. Increasing the infiltration ratio requires technical approach of soil amendment where the BMP is installed.

This experiment was carried out to investigate the effect of several organic compost on the growth and root yield of Angelica gigas Nakai with organic cultivation. After fertilizing the soil with organic fertilizer, the dry weight of liming fertilizer showed a slow change, while microorganism fertilizer decreased about 29% until 20 day after fertilizing. At 110 days after fertilizing, microorganism fertilizer decreased more than liming fertilizer. Liming fertilizer decomposed slowly, while microorganism fertilizer decomposed early on rapidly but gently after 20 days in decomposed rate of organic fertilizer. Dried root yields per 10a of A. gigas were not significance between 277.6kg in conventional fertilizer and 277.7kg, 280.5kg in N 1.5, N 2.0 times of microorganism fertilizer. Decursin and decursinol angelate contents in A. gigas were 9.08 ~ 9.07% from N 1.0 and N 1.5 times in liming fertilizer, and 7.94 ~ 8.12% from N 1.5 times and N 2.0 times in microorganism fertilizer, compared to 7.31% of conventional treatment.

$\alpha$-Amylase producing bacteria were isolated from activated sludge of corn processing wastewater plant and paddy field soil samples and selected by the direct iodine reaction. The isolate was identified as Bacillus sp. after morphology, API system and fatty acid analyses. To enchance $\alpha$-amylase productivity, a successive mutation of Bacillus sp. AIV 19 was performed using the treatment of nitrosoguanidine(NTG).The mutant, Bacillus sp. AIV 1940, showed about 1.8-fold level of amylase activity compared with parental strain. The isolate was Gram-positive and rod (2.8-3.0 $\mu$m long, 0.5-0.6 $\mu$m wide) type. The strain increased the bacterial mass at 3000 mg/l starch concentration. Organic substance removal rate was 40.2, 72.3% respectively after 1 and 3 day reaction using starch synthetic wastewater (intial CODcr was 4,455 mg/l).

The competitive relationship between orchardgrass (Dactylis glomerata L.) and ladino clover (Trifolium repens L.) was studied under aerial and soil partitions and N, P fertilizer combinations. Orchardgrass and ladino clover were grown in field with one of non competition, shoot competition only, root competition only, full competition and competition between same species. Under basal application of K fertilizer N and P were applied in treatment combinations of blank, N only (l5kg/10a), P only (l5kg/10a), and both NP at planting and each cutting. The forage yield in mixture was between yield of pure orchard grass stand and the 'expected yield', which was a mean of both pure stands. The forage yield in pure ladino was the lowest. During the experiment there was a progressive decline in clover yield either pure stand or mixture. Since orchardgrass was 'over-compensated' to low-yielding clover, the yield of mixture was more than non competition. Orchard grass was more competitive than ladino clover as seasons advanced. The aggressivity of orchardgrass was higher in root competition than in shoot competition comparing to clover. Nitrogen fertilizer increased orchardgrass yield, while phosphate did ladino clover yield and root weight of both species. But the additional effect of P to N was not significant in dry weight and LAI.

Not all types of soil occurring on household fabrics can be removed by simple washing with normal surfactants. In order to achieve a satisfactory cleaning effect, an additional treatment step, called bleaching, is required in such cases. Currently, the best known bleach activator is tetraacetylethylenediamine (TAED). In this study, we synthesized a novel organic bleach activator (OBA), decanoyloxyethoxycarbonyloxybenzenesulfonate. For stabilizing the OBA, it was coated with zeolite and polyethylene glycol. It is found that the stability was enhanced and OBA shows good cleansing and bleaching effects even in cold water ($20^{\circ}C$). OBA also shows easy biodegradability with 88% in the condition of OECD standard. During the cleansing process, OBA shows excellent microbiological effect against T. mentagrophytes and S. aureus.

Pyroligneous liquor as a byproduct from charcoal production of bamboo sprout produced damyang-gun has the broad benefits such as improvement of soil quality, plant growth control and is mainly used for the treatment of atopic dermatitis, fungi and many other skin diseases. In this study, flavor compounds of pyroligneous liquor from bamboo sprout produced in Damyang-gun were analyzed and compared using three different methods including direct analysis (DA), headspace solid phase microextraction (HS-SPME) and stir bar sorptive extraction (SBSE). Simultaneously, the analytical conditions of GC-MS for the determination of volatile compounds were optimized. Based on volatile organic compounds detected by GC-MS, SBSE and SPME methods showed higher sensitivity than direct analysis. Major compounds of pyroligneous liquor were cresol, guaiacol, p-ethyl guaiacol and syringol. These phenolic compounds are reported as the useful chemicals with medicinal activity.

This research was conducted to determine the plant growth and nutrient contents of potted chrysanthemum 'Lima Honey' as influenced by application rate of dolomite in three root media, peatmoss+vermiculite (1:1, v/v), peatmoss+composted rice hall (1:1, v/v), and peatmoss+composted pine bark (1:1, v/v). All root media contained polyacrylic acid sodium salt (PASS) at a rate of $4.5g L^{-1}$. In crop growth at 40 and 80 days after transplanting, elevated application rates of dolomite up to $6.0g L^{-1}$ in three root media increased fresh and dry weights per plant. But the treatment of $9.0g L^{-1}$ had less fresh and dry weights than those of $6.0g L^{-1}$. Tissue phosphorus content decreased and those of Ca and Mg increased by the elevated application rates of dolomite. Elevated application rates of dolomite in three root media resulted in the increase of pH, EC, and the concentrations of K, Ca, and Mg at 43 days after transplanting. Those at 80 days after transplanting were also increased, but the differences among treatments were less significant as compared to those at 43 days after transplanting. From the results of dry weight in potted chrysanthemum 'Lima Honey', the proper application rate of dolomite to three root media containing PASS at a rate of $4.5g L^{-1}$ were $6.0g L^{-1}$.

Streptomyces platensis YK-2, newly isolated from forest soil, produces transglutaminase (TGase), which catalyses an acyl transfer reaction between the primary grade amine and protein or $\gamma$-carboxyamide group of peptide bound glutamine residues. For a molecular genetic study of S. platensis, an effective transformation method was established by using a conjugal transfer of DNA from Escherichia coli to spores of actinomycetes. The highest transconjugation frequency of S. platensis was obtained on an MS medium containing 50 mM $MgCl_2$, using $5{\times}10^7\;E$. coli as a DNA donor and $1{\times}10^8$ spores without heat treatment as a host. We also identified that S. platensis contains a single attB site within an ORF encoding a pirin-homolog, and that its attB site sequence shows high homology to that of S. logisporoflavus. In addition, it was confirmed by phenotypic analyses of exconjugants that the introduction of heterologous DNA into the attB site of the S. platensis chromosome does not affect its morphological differentiation and TGase production.
