본 연구는 쌈채 및 강장제로 이용되고 있는 산마늘을 조경용 지피식물로 활용하고자 수행하였다. 차광 정도를 30%, 50%, 80%로 처리하여 생육 특성 및 엽록소 함량 등을 조사하였다. 엽수는 처리구별로 유의성이 인정되지 않았으나 엽장과 엽폭은 80% 차광 처리구가 각각 16.8cm, 10.1cm로 무처리구의 13.4cm, 7.3cm에 비해 우수하였다. 생체중은 무처리구가 차광 처리구에 비해 우수한 것으로 나타났으나 지상부 생체중은 무처기구가 8.5g인데 비해 80% 차광 처리구가 0.4g로 양호하였다. 엽록소 함량은 50% 차광 처리구가 42.8, 80% 차광 처리구가 40.5로 무처리의 36.7에 비해 높았다. 따라서 차광 수준에 따른 산마늘의 생육 특성은 80% 차광 처리구에서 가장 우수하여 음지성 지피식물로서 가치가 있는 것으로 나타났다.

The aim of this research was carried out that leafty and tonic vegetable using garlic (Allium victorialis L. var. platyphyllum Makino) makes use of landscape ground-cover plant. Following shading level treatments (30%, 50%, 80%), garlic was cultivated to investigate plant growth characteristic and chlorophyll content. Leaf number of all treatments was unaffected, and 80% shading treatment had grown vigorous growth 16.8 cm leaf length and 10.1 cm leaf width compared to 13.4 cm leaf length and 7.3 cm leaf width for the non-shading treatment. Fresh weight of non-shading treatment was better than those of three shading treatments, however, 80% shading treatment had produced 10.4 g fresh weight of stem part compared to 8.5 g for the for the non-shading treatment. The chlorophyll content of the 50 and 80 shading treatments showed 42.8% and 40.5% respectively. These treatments increased 36.7% chlorophyll content compared to non-shading treatments. Following shading level treatments, growth characteristics of garlic in 80 shading level treatment shows outstanding growth and it is worthy of planting as shading ground-cover plants.
