    A new species-Elachanthemum polycephalum Z. Y. Zhu et C. Z. Liang, -is de-scribed in detail and the problem of the classification position of Elachanthemum is discussed by mor-phological characteristics, ecological properties, geographical distribution, and flora origin. Morpho-logically, although Elachanthemum is similar to Stilpnolepis, there are obvious differences on the mor-ph and structure of flowers, achenes and pollen grains between two genera. Therefore, the Elachanthemum is an independent genus and can not be merged into Stilpnolepis. The genus is a primitive genus in the category of Artemisia, and it, perhaps, come from the Pro-Artemisia that distributed in the northem part of Asia in tertiary. It is a relict xerophytic element in the eastern part of Tethys, and is an endemic genus in the desert of Asia Media (Gobi desert). The discovery of the new species in Elachanthemum manifest that the species differentiation are stili progressing in desert flora, and make the Elachanthemum from a monospecific genus to olig-specific one (2 species).

    Artificial culture of unicell spore of Atrichum undulatum (Hedw.) P. Beauv is performed successfully in this paper, and the authors research the whole process of that and take the photoes. through the research, we find that its spores have no post-maturation or domant period. They can germinate after 3-4 days and the rate of germination is over 95%. About 10 days later, its chlorone-mata, caulonemata and rhizoides begin to differentiate, almost on the 40th day bud primordium ap-pears, and then, around the 50th day, bud forms gradually. At last, nearly the 80th day, the whole plant finishes its vegetive growth and starts development of sexual organs. Its primary rhizoides devel-op poorly, and basai celis have no division, the way of chloronema's generating caulonema is complex and caulonema cell has three kinds of diastemas; spherical, declinate and transuerse, at the beginning of the differentiation of bud primordium, caulonema generates cell population that have high photosyn-thetic capacity, and bud primordium on its base. The rate of successful differentiation of the bud primordium is about only 50%, once bud forms, protonemata always perishes and specializes in rhizoides. The research discussed the morpha development, phyoiological ecology, generation, evolution and so on.

    The stem structure, leaf epidermis structure and the pollen morphology of a traditional orien-tal medical herb Orostachys fimbriatus (Crassulaceae) were examined in detail under light microscope and scanning electron microscope and compared with those of Sedum of the same family. According to our anatomical studies, the stems of Orostachys fimbriatus and Sedum spp. consisted of epidermis, cortex and primary vascular tissue. They differed mainly in the size of parenchyma cells, the amount of idio-blasts and the type of vascular bundles. On leaf epidermis, the two distinguished in the shape of surface celis, anticlinal wall and the ornamentation of cuticle while they shared the same type of stomata, aniso-cytic type. As far as pollen morphology was concerned, the two had much the same characteristics such as the pollen shape, angulaperturate, 3-colporate and ornamentation type on the exine surface. But the size and the thickness of exine wall differed distinctly. Some marked differences are taxonomically useful for the identification of genera and division of family. At the end of the article, the author concludes that Orostachys is superior to Sedum spp..

    This paper deals with a histological observation of adventitious bud formation and somatic embryogenesis of peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) leaflets. Adventitious buds and embryoids developed from the leaflets of 4-day-old seedlings on MS basai medium supplemented with TDZ 0. 2 mg/L and NAA 0.4 mg/L, and developed into plantlets after they were transferred onto MS medium without any phytohormone. Histological observations showed that both adventitious buds and somatic embryos developed from the surface of the callus. However, adventitious buds originated from cell mass while somatic embryos originated from one single embryogenic cell. The somatic embryos developed directly into plantlets with roots and buds through multicellular proembryo, globular, heart-shaped, torpedo-shaped and cotyledon stages.

    The results of this investigation indicated that the crude stem extract of Eucalyptus LH22 clone (Eucalyptus urophylla S. T. Blade Eucalyptus camaldulensis Dehnhardt), which was difficulty-to-root, inhibited evidendy the rooting rate and the length of roots of mung bean cuttings. Other-wise, there was no case in the U6 clone (Eucalyptus urophylla S. T. Blade U6 clone), which was easy-to-root. The crude extractions were purified by organic solvent extraction methods, and then all kinds of extractions were tested by seed germination. The experiments revealed that there were stron-ger inhibitory ingredients existed in water extract and ether extract by analysis of Duncan's SSR. But there was no inhibiting effect in the extract of U6 clone. The inhibiting fractions were purified further by silica gel column chromatography and the result showed that different inhibitory activities were exis-ted among the several purified fractions. So, It's concluded that there were several different ingredi-ents of inhibitors in the stem of LH22 clone and less inhibitors in the steni of U6 clone.

    Accumulation of sugars in plant seeds varies with developmental stages and seed categories and relates to seed desiccation-tolerance. Some certain sugars accumulate following with deveiop-ment of many plant seeds, which is considered to play an import role in acquisition of desiccation-tolerance. But effects of sugars on seed desiccation-tolerance are not independent but interact-with those of ABA, proteins et al. The desiccation-tolerance is correlated to not only categories and content of sugars, but also to physiological status and developmental courses. The research advances on relationship between seed desiccation-tolerance and sugar is reviewed in this paper.

    Twelve populations of Picea koraiensis are collected typically within its distribution from Changbai Mountains, its branches Zhangguanchai Mount, Laoyie Mount and Wanda Mount, to Xiaox-ing'an Mountains and Dasing'an Mountains, with interspersed areas of internai Mogul grassland and Sikshote Mountains. The theories and methods of genetics are applied which include Population Genetics, Ecological Genetics, Physiological Genetics, Molecular Genetics, Forest Genetics and Forest-ry Breeding as well as Statistics such as PCA and Cluster. The variations within population and among populations are systematically studied from phenotype to molecular Ievel and the relationship among the characters of various parents and their progenies, feature in allozyme and their relative ecological environment factors are analyzed. The results indicate as follows:it is first in parent bio-system characters, the morphology, growth, bio-mass and mineral elements of progeny seedlings that the genetic variation of Picea koraiensis is conducted. There are abundant variations in it and its genetic variation within a population is larger than among populations. Among 21 gene loci in 11 enzymes testing, poly-morphic loci makes up about 27.2 percent of total. The variation within population is 15.2 percent and among populations is 84.2 percent. In contrast with other species in Picea spp., the ratio of major allozyme loci within population of Picea koraiensis belongs to lower level, while that among populations reaches to higher Ievel. The genetic variations in allozyme, comparing with morphology, show a similar tendency. According to the characters of parent and progeny of Picea koraiensis and their relative climatic factors, the area of seed allocation are divided into six sections; Ⅰ Changbai Mountains area, Ⅱ Laoyie Mount-Wanda Mount area, Ⅲ Xiaoxing'an Mountains area, Ⅳ North part of Daxing' an Mountains, V Southwest part of Daxing' an Mountains, Ⅵ Sikshote area.
