The purpose of this study was to evaluate the level of SCM activities and the logistics performance by SCM of the three company types in fashion industry· fabric suppliers, apparel manufacturers, and retailers. The level of SCM activities was estimated through the examination of seven factors: commitment and leadership of a top management, flexibility of management, understanding of demand characteristics, integrated management organization, information system, cooperative partnership and communication and exchange of opinion. The logistics performance was measured by improvement in customer service(on time delivery ratio of products, returning rate, treat ratio for A/S, order fill rate, substitute providing capability for being out of stock) and delivery cost reduction. Through questionnaire survey, a total of 214 data for 108 companies of three company types were collected: 46 for 40 fabric suppliers, 123 for 64 apparel manufacturers and 45 for 4 retailers. The analysis of SCM activity levels showed that fabric suppliers had higher degrees in the factor of understanding of demand characteristics, and apparel manufacturers had higher degrees in the factor of information systems. For retailers, the factor of communication and exchange of opinion represented higher degrees. The study on relationship between the SCM activity levels and logistics performance showed that the SCM activity factor of understanding of demand characteristics greatly improved a substitute providing capability for being out of stock in fabric suppliers, and information system improved a substitute providing capability for being out of stock, on time delivery ratio of products and order fill rate in apparel manufacturers. In retailers, the SCM activity factor of understanding of demand characteristics decreased returning rate highly and improved on time delivery ratio of products. The study results showed that SCM activities in fashion industry brought more improvement in customer service levels rather than in delivery cost reduction.

Factors affecting regeneration of different Rubus varieties (blackberry, raspberry and their hybrid) were examined and a reliable regeneration system was established. Media for stock plant maintenance were tested; different explants and media were investigated to find the best circumstances for the regeneration. The effect of the commonly used antibiotics was studied to determine the most suitable one for selection of the transformants. We found that both MS and LS media supplemented by $20\;gL^{-1}$ sucrose are suitable for the stock plant maintenance. The optimal hormone content for the stock plants is $0.125\;mgL^{-1}$ 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) with $0.01\;mgL^{-1}$ indole-3- butyric acid (IBA). The highest regeneration rate was observed on medium containing MS salts with B5 vitamins complemented with glucose, sucrose, maltose, $10\;gL^{-1}$ each, supplemented with benzylaminopurine riboside (BAR) ($2\;mgL^{-1}$) and indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) ($0.1\;mgL^{-1}$). The regenerated shoots appeared directly from the cut edges, without callus phase. Hygromycin and geneticin proved to be good selection agents for the Rubus explants, but due to their severe effect on the tissues we propose to use marker-free constructions for the transformation.

The experiments were conducted to establish the in vitro culture system of apple rootstock M.9. The meristem tissue of M.9 were pre-treated in antiox: dant solution containing 100 mgL$^{-1}$ ascorbic acid and 150 mgL$^{-1}$ citric acid for 30 minutes, transferred to the MS liquid medium added with 0.1 mgL$^{-1}$ IBA, 0.5 mgL$^{-1}$ GA, and 30 gL$^{-1}$ sucrose, which shaked by 50 rpm for 2 weeks, and then, cultured in same composition of MS agar medium. This treatment stimulated shooting from the tissue, the most favorably, compared with other treatments. All young shoots produced normal roots when they were shake-cultured on the 1/2MS liquid medium added with 0.5 mgL$^{-1}$ IBA, 30 gL$^{-1}$ sucrose and 1,000 times diluted solution of Hormex by 50 rpm for one week, and subsequently transferred to the 8 gL$^{-1}$ agar medium of the same composition as pre-culture medium minus Hormex.

Vibrio, Photobacterium, Alteromonas and Xenorhabdus species are capable of emitting light, called bioluminescence. They exist in marine, freshwater and terrestrial environments. Bacterial bioluminescent reaction is that reduced riboflavin phosphates and a long-chain aldehyde are oxidized in the presence of molecular oxygen and enzyme luciferase. This experiment aims to develop the proper culture media and to optimize the storage condition for the recovery of bioluminescent activity in Photobacterium phosphoreum. The Luria broth (LB) medium was modified for cultivation of Photobacterium phophoreum, called as modified LB(mLB) medium. The mLB medium is LB fortified with 3% glycerol and 1.5% NaCl. In mLB medium. bacterial growth and bioluminescent activity are 25% higher than those in a Nutrient broth medium. When the cell stocks were stored at $-20^{\circ}C$, $-70^{\circ}C$ and LN2 for 3 months, cell growth and bioluminescent activity of culture after stored at $-20^{\circ}C$ were better than those of other treatments. The highest bioluminescent activity obtained at the late exponential phase in all treatments. When the cell stock was freeze-dried with 5% adonitol as a cryoprotectant, the recovery of cell was better than those of control and freeze-dried cell stock without addition of cryoprotectant.

Strongylocentrotus pulcherrimus is one of the very important fishery stock in this country since its high demand for raw gonad. Although the demand has been continuously increasing, the natural stock of this species seems to be decreasing. Since fresh macroalgae are not always available, the substitution of terrestrial vegetables for algae as a principal food was examined for the intensive indoor culture of the sea urchin. The results from the studies on selective and non-selective feeding habits and nutritional efficiencies using 13 food stuffs (6 macroalgae, 5 vegetables and 2 animal products) indicate that algae can be substituted with vegetables in sea urchin culture. Although the growth of body weight was the highest when sea urchins were fed Undaria Pinnatifida, the gonad index of the sea urchins fed on spinach, radish leaf and lettuce was higher than that of this brown alga. Considering the different food efficiencies of body and gonad growth, spinach and radish leaf will be adequate during gonad growth season, while lettuce and Chinese cabbage will be suitable for test growth season. In particular, radish leaf, which is usually not eaten by humans, could be highly beneficial and very economical in the sea urchin culture.

Based on various employment and technology data in the cultural sector from the mid-1990s to the mid-2000s in Seoul, Korea, this research examines whether technology- and human resource-oriented programs exert significant impact on creative manpower, R&D technology level and tolerance. After briefly introducing Seoul's trends in the culture industry, it tries to explain major reinforcing and balancing loops. The stock-flow diagram of the culture industry in Seoul is applied to estimate relative effectiveness of technology- and human resource-oriented cultural programs cultural programs. Judging from a series of simulated experiments, technology-oriented cultural programs are essential to increase creative manpower and R&D technology level in the short term. For the first half of research period, this research finds that human resource-oriented cultural programs put forth minimal impact, if they even exist at all. The trends, however, are reversed in the long term: Both size of creative manpower and R&D technology level absolutely depend on human resource-oriented cultural programs in the second half.

To eradicate several viruses such as PVX, PVY, and PLRV which often cause considerable damages to the growth and yields of potatoes, several stems including shoot tips were excised from the potato plants grown for 50 days and electric shock was treated. Shoot tips excised from electric-shocked stems were transferred into the medium supplemented with antiviral compound, ribavirin to examine the combinatorial effect. When treated only with 20 mg/L ribavirin, PVX concentration in the regenerated plant-lets was slowly decreased as repeating sub-culture and finally, it took 32 weeks to reach completely PVX-free stock. With an electric shock treatment (10 mA electric current), all the replicates became free from PVY. However, PLRV was not completely eradicated from 94P70-4 and 93P29-3 lines even by treating with 10 mA electric shock. In this case, both electric shock and antiviral compound treatments in axillary buds from the stem segment were successful in eradicating viral contamination.

This study was conducted to determine the effect of seedling and division nursery stock size on the growth and yield of Wasabia japonica cultivated with cold water from Soyang Dam. As seedling and division nursery stock size were enlarged, their growth and yield were higher. In the case of division nursery stock, the rhizome yield per 10a were 782kg for large one, 723kg form medium one and 567kg for small one, and commercial rates - the percentage of rhizomes that weigh over 40g - were 87% for large one,80% for medium one and 55% for small one. In the case of seedling, large one brought out yield of 575kg/10a while medium and small one brought out low yield of 408kg/10a, and 421kg/10a, respectively. And the commercial rates from seedling were 60% for large one. 13% for medium one and 20% for small one.

The culture filtrate of Streptomyces sp. B25, which was identified in this experiment, was tested for the control of tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) with the susceptible tobacco cultivar, NC 82, under the field conditions following the preliminary examination of its characters for TMV control. Control efficacy of the culture filtrate against TMV infection continued over 50% up to 6 days after treatment, and its systemic effect was about 30% of the direct effect. In field conditions control efficacy of the culture filtrate against TMV infection was 95.3 % at 2 weeks after TMV inoculation, and decreased to 58.3 % at 3 weeks after inoculation. Five fold-dilution of the culture filtrate showed about half of the control efficacy by the stock culture filtrate. Analysis of the antibiotic material responsible for the inhibition of TMV infection through nuclear magnetic resonance experiments revealed that the antibiotic is antimycin $A_1$, which is firstly reported as an anti-phytoviral antibiotic in this experiment.
