This study was carried out to determine the effect of sowing time on the flowering, growth and yield of Scutellaria baicalensis Georg, which was collected from Yeochon district, cultivated after barley in the southern coastal areas of Korea. Emergence and flowering dates in the sowing time of June 1 were earlier than those of the other sowing times. In the sowing time of June 1, length and diameter of main stem, number of node per main stem, number of branch per plant and dry weight of stem leaves were greater than those of sowing times of June 10 and June 20. Yield components such as main stem length and diameter, main stem numbers, branches per plant, dry weight of stem leaves, main root length and thickness, number of large root and fine root per plant, and dry weight of root were the highest at the sowing time of June I as the yield of 71.3kg/10a. Optimum sowing time of Scutellaria baicalensis Georg cultivated after barley was June 1 in southern areas of korea.

The plant type is generally one of the most important factor for crop production and be influenced by nitrogen absorption. Soybean plants have nodules in their roots, supplying nitrogen at the vegetative and reproductive stages. Root nodules seem to effect plant type of soybean plants, but there are few reports on the relation nodules and plant type. We tried to clarify the effects of root nodules on the plant type, especially internode length and petiole length, comparing non-nodule soybean with normal soybean. The pot experiment and field experiment were carried out at Mie University and Utsunomiya University in 2015 and 2016. Enrei, a popular cultivar in central Japan, and En1282, non-nodulating isogenic line of Enrei, were used. The petiole length on main stem was measured after defoliation and internode length and yield components were measured after harvest. In the field experiment, the patterns of the final length in internode and petiole on main stem were consistent in both cultivars, and a positive correlation was found between the Nth petiole length and the N-1th internode length, belong to the same phytomere. Therefore, the petiole and internode on the main stem make similar response for environmental factors. In pot experiment, Enrei grew with the same pattern as field experiments, but in En1282, the elongation of petiole and internode in the upper part was suppressed, especially the petiole was suppressed greatly. The main stem becomes the basis of the plant type. These results were considered that the nitrogen is distributed preferentially to the internode than the petiole. It seems that the pot cultivation restricted the rhizosphere and caused nitrogen deficiency in En1282. These results suggested that the slight nitrogen deficiency provided from the root nodules was compensated by the increase of the amount of inorganic nitrogen absorption due to the expansion of the rhizosphere, and the severe nitrogen deficiency suppressed elongation of petiole and internode. It is clear that root nodules effect the plant type by supplying nitrogen to internodes and petioles.

This study was conducted to determine the optimum planting dates and density of one year old Bupleurum falcatum L. to improve its productivity and quality. Two cultivars of B. falcatum, originated from Jeongseon, Korea and Mishima, Japan were used. Some of the results obtained are as follows : Jeongseon cultivar showed less stem branches and shoot weight compared to Mishima. However, Jeongseon cultivar showed tall plant height, high root fresh and dry weight, and high levels of saikosaponin, but low saikosaponin content than that of Mishima. Both cultivars seeded on March 20 had long main root, big stem diameter, few stem branch, and high saikosaponin c content compared to those of late seeded one, April 30. Growth characteristics such as plant height, stem diameter, stem branch number, shoot weight, root diameter, root fresh and dry weight, and root branch number were increased in a low planting $density(30\;{\times}\;15cm)$, but the content of saikosaponin was not affected by planting density. Jeongseon and Mishima cultivars seeded on April 10 with $30\;{\times}\;15cm$ planting density and April 30 with $30\;{\times}\;10cm$ planting density contained the highest total saikosaponin levels, respectively. However, average root dry weight were not affected by planting time or density in both Bupleurum cultivars.

To develop a new propagation method of Korean ginseng (Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer) by cutting, stem cuttings with leaflets obtained from ginseng seedlings were planted in rooting media treated with three levels of NAA concentration. NAA solution of 1.0 ppm was the most effective for the rooting of ginseng stem cuttings as well as for root growth after initiation of the roots from cuttings. A mixture of sand and leaf compost as a rooting medium for ginseng stem cuttings showed the best results in rooting percentage of cuttings and root growth after rooting. An acril film cap covering was very effective to prevent water loss by transpiration from the leaflets of stem cuttings and for rooting and root growth after rooting. Cuttings of leaf petiole with 5 leaflets from 2 year old ginseng plants showed good rooting as well as root growth after rooting in a mixture of sand and leaf compost treated with 1.0 ppm NAA.

Echinacea is a North American native medicinal herb used traditionally for wounds, burns, snake or insect bites, colds, infections, and inflammation by indigenous Americans. We investigated the effects of the root and stem of fresh Korean-grown Echinacea angustifolia methanol extracts and fractionation extracts on the cytotoxicity against cancer cells (HL60, 3LL). The extracts were prepared by step-wise fractionation of methanol extracts of Echinacea angustifolia using hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, buthanol, and water. From the tests, root and stem parts of Echinacea showed the cytotoxic effect on cancer cells. The cytotoxie rate of the ethyl acetate fraction of the root parts showed 79% against HL60 cells at low concentration (0.125 mg/mL), and hexane fraction of the root and stem parts gradually increased as the concentration of samples increased, and the root parts showed 82% at 1.0 mg/mL concentration against HL60 cells, chloroform fraction of the root part showed 78.4% against HL60 cells and 68.4% on 3LL cells at 1.0 mg/mL concentration, water and butanol fraction of these results, it is considered that ethyl acetate fraction of the root and stem parts showed 60.1% to 77.1% against HL60 cells, after testing by MTT assay system. From these results, it is considered that ethyl acetate fraction of the Echinacea angustifolia root parts has stronger anticancer effects than any other fractions in vitro.

This experiment was carried out to determine the proper time for flower bud removing to improve growth, yield and paeoniflorin content of root in peony(Paeonia lactiflora Pallas). The flower buds removement caused short stem length by $7{\sim}9cm$ compared with control, but number of stem and stem diameter were similar to that of control. The number of root, fresh root weight and paeoniflorin content in peony increased when their flower buds were removed at earlier stages. The root dry weight was highest of 1.647kg/10a, and increased by 27% compared with control when their flower buds were removed at early stage (bud diameter was less than 10mm). The root dry weight increased by 13% and 10%, respectively. when their flower buds were removed prior to flowering and at flowering stage. Paeoniflorin content in leaf was higher than that in stem, and was higher at early stage. Leaf and stem showed higher paeonif1orin content when their flower buds were removed.
