In order to clarify effect of transplanting angle of seedling on shape and growth of ginseng root, ginseng of seedlings were transplanted with $60^{circ}$ and $90^{circ}$ respectively, and the root characters of 2-, 4- and 6-year-old ginseng were investigated. The length of main root with 45$^{circ}$was above 7 cm (standard) but that of $60^{circ}$ and $60^{circ}$ was below 7 cm (standard). Number of good lateral root was above 2.3 ea for $45^{circ}$, 0~$30^{circ}$, but below 2.3 ea per plant for 60~$90^{circ}$ respectively. Root fresh weight with $0^{circ}$, $30^{circ}$, $45^{circ}$ was heavier than that with $60^{circ}$ and $90^{circ}$. Root disease infection rate was highest with $0^{circ}$. There were, no significant difference in stem length, stem diameter, leaf area, comber of palmate leaves and leaflets per plant, ratio of missing plant, root diameter in 2-, 4- and 6-year-old ginseng.
