광의의 한국산 개미취속의 16종류에 대하여 열매인 수과의 분류학적 가치를 평가하고자 본 연구를 수행하였다. 수과의 형태는 도피침상 장타원형, 도란형, 장타원형, 도란상 장타원형 의 4유형으로 구분되었으며, 수과에 존재하는 모용은 단열성 원추형, 사상형, 원주형, 두상형, 장축 두상형, 구형의 6유형으로 구분되었다. 이들의 수과 선단에서 분포양상은 무모형, 원추상 모용 소생형, 원추상 모용 밀집형, 원추상-두상 모용 혼생형의 4유형으로 구분되었다. 이러한 수과의 형태와 이에 존재하는 모용의 특징은 분류군내의 개체간에는 변이가 없으나 분류군간에는 뚜렷한 차이를 보여 종을 구분하는 좋은 형질로 여겨졌다. 특히 두상형의 모용의 존재여부와 수과선단의 두상형의 모용과 원추형의 모용이 혼생하는 형질은 광의의 Aster속을 Kalimeris, Heteropappus, Aster, Gymnaster속으로 세분할 때, Kalimeris속과 Heteropappus속 및 Aster속의 Pseudocalimeris절을 구분짓는 형질, 즉 절 이상을 구분하는 형질로서 가치를 지니는 것으로 판단되었다.

Taxonomic studies in external morphology, principal component analysis and cluster analysis were conducted to understand the intraspecific relationship among three habitats (Jirisan, Odaesan and Ulleungdo) of allium voctorialis var. platyphyllum. External morphology such as bulb color, leaf blade length and width, petiole length, total leaf length, peduncle length, perianth lobe length and width, length of anther and filament were useful characters for identification of poplations in three habitats. The results obtained based on the principal component (Pc) analysis of treated 72 OTUs(included outgroup) were divided into three groups by the PC 1 ,2,3 and the sums of contributions for the total variance were 84.1%(PC1 51.0%, PC2 24.9% and PC3 8.2%, respectively). In cluster analysis by the UPGMA and Ward's methods , there was similarities in the compostion of clustered taxa, and only Ulleungdo population was distinctly identified from population of other two habitats.

Through total fatty acid analysis by the Gas chromatography, 17 different fatty acids were identified from the sap extracted from bark of Korean Rhus(Anacardiaceae), six species. Linoleic acid(C18 :2) and oleic acid(C18 : 1) were identified as major fatty acids for the species investigated, but except in R. chinensis.In the fatty acid composition for the species, one or two specific-fatty acid was detected, and its could be utilized as a useful taxonomic character.The result of cluster analysis by the 22 reliable characters in the fatty acid composition suggested first group was R.trichocarpa and R. succedanea, the second group, R.verniciflua, R.ambgua and R. sylvestris, but R.chinensis was a greatly independent species. The possible chemotaxonomic application of the fatty acid composition of bark in the genus Rhus was discussed.

The species of the genus Entoloma recorded in Korea until now are arranged with Korean Entoloma monography. It was made with modified keys of classification of Hesler and Noordeloos. On the basis of it, the genus Entoloma of Korea is classified into 7 subgenera, 10 sections, and 80 species.
