Performance data (from 1985 to 2000) of Jersey cattle imported from USA and maintained at Islamabad, Pakistan were evaluated. The purpose of this study was to assess the genetic merit of Jersey breed under Pakistani environment for further propagation. Cows with at least two calvings were considered for this study; records on 50 daughter-dam pairs were available on production and reproduction performance traits for genetic evaluation. The average age at first calving in parents was $25.2{\pm}2.4$ m as compared to $23.9{\pm}6.6$ m in progeny. Calving interval in parents and progeny was $416{\pm}74$ and $446{\pm}105$ d; lactation length $301{\pm}51$ and $325{\pm}73$ d; lactation milk yield $2,908{\pm}669$ and $2,707{\pm}903$ lit respectively. All these differences were found to be statistically significant except lactation length. The correlations between age at first calving and total lactation milk was -0.25, between calving interval and total lactation milk yield was 0.14, and between lactation length and total lactation milk yield was 0.79. The $h^2$ of these traits were low indicating important role of environment in expressing the genetic potential of animals. The S.E of $h^2$ of all the traits was high due to large variation in data.

This study was carried out to acquire basic data necessary for the use of non-wood pulp. Various chemical pulping methods for rice straw to achieve higher yield, lower Kappa No. were investigated and then the physical properties of various pulps were tested. The results of this study were as follows: When various chemical pulps (Soda, Soda-AQ, Soda-$H_2O_2$, Soda-$Na_2S_2$, AS, AS-AQ, AS-$Na_2S_2O_3$, AS-$Na_2S_2O_4$, Kraft) were produced with rice-straw, the pulps with the highest yield and lowest Kappa No. were obtained with Soda-$Na_2S_2$and AS-$Na_2S_2O_4$pulps. For the breaking length, Soda and Soda-additive pulps(7.5~9.2km) were better than AS and AS-additive pulps(6.2~8.1km). Similarly, for the burst index, Soda and Soda-additive pulps(6.0~7.0 kPa.$m^2$/g) were better than AS and AS-additive pulps(4.5~6.3 kPa.m$^2$/g). But the tear index was showed 21.8-30.9 mN.$m^2$/g with a little different between pulping methods.

The reduction behavior of $Nb_2O_5$ in aluminum containing self-reducing briquettes(SRNB) was investigated. The time required for slag/metal equilibrium was estimated as about 20 minutes from the addition of SRNB on to the surface of molten steel. The maximum yield of Nb was expected with the slag composition of $60\%CaO-40\%Al_2O_3$. When $CaCO_3$ was used as a flux, the oxidation loss of Al by $CO_2$ should be compensated, and the chemical equivalent ratio of Al to $Nb_2O_5$ of about 1.43 was required to maximize the yield of Nb.

The 3-dimensional finite element program is developed to analyze the non-isothermal forming processes of aluminum-alloy sheet metals. Bishop's method is introduced to solve the heat balance and force equilibrium equations. Also, Barlat's non-quadratic anisotropic yield function depicts the planar anisotropy of the aluminum-alloy sheet. To find an appropriate constitutive equation, four different forms are reviewed. For the verification of the reliability of the developed program, the computational try-outs of the non-isothermal cylindrical cupping processes of AL5052-H32 and Al1050-H16 are carried out. As results, the constitutive equation relating to strain and strain-rate, in which the constants are represented by the 5th-degree polynomials of temperature, is in good agreement with measurement. The computational try-outs can predict optimal forming conditions in non-isothermal forming processes.

우리나라 벼 수량의 기상반응을 종합적으로 검토하여 벼 수량예측모델을 구축하고자 1985년부터 1999년까지 15년간 수행한 20개 지역의 벼 지역적응시험 자료를 이용하여 기상에 대한 수량반응의 최대경계선(boundary line)분석을 하였으며, 이에 근거하여 수량예측모형을 설정하였다. 1. 벼의 생육기간을 영양생장기, 생식생장기, 등숙기로 구분하고 각 발육단계를 15-20일 간으로 구분하여 각 시기의 기상요소에 대한 수량반응의 최대경계선은 평균기온( $T_{a}$ )과 일조시수( $S_{h}$)에 대해서는 지수함수 f( $T_{a}$ )=$\beta$$_{0}$(1-exp(-$\beta$$_1$/$\times$ $T_{a}$ ), f( $S_{h}$)=$\beta$$_{0}$(1-exp(-$\beta$$_1$$\times$ $T_{h}$)로 나타났으며 일교차(Tr)는 2차함수 f( $T_{r}$)=$\beta$0(1-( $T_{r}$-$\beta$$_1$)$^2$)로, 이 식에서 상수항 $\beta$$_{0}$를 제거하여 수량에 대한 각 기상요소의 영향도를 0-1로 나타내는 기상지수로 나타내었다. 2. 각 생육시기의 평균기온, 일조시간 및 일교차에 대한 수량반응의 최대경계선이외에 불임에 의한 등숙률 저하와 그에 따른 수량감소를 고려하기 위하여 Uchijima(1976)가 제안한 냉각도일수(cooling degree day)를 출수전 30일간의 생식생장기에 계산하여 이에 대한 수량과 등숙률 반응의 최대경계선을 계산하였는데 냉각도일수가 증가하면 수량이 감소하는 지수함수로 잘 표현되어 기존의 연구들과 같은 결과였다. 3. 기상지수는 벼의 생육기간을 영양생장기, 생식생장기 및 등숙기로 구별하고 각 시기별로 수량 기상지수를 각 기상요소 기상지수를 기하평균하여 산출하였는데 각 시기별 수량기상지수의 수량변이 설명도는 각각 0.383-0.430, 0.460-0.534, 0.4603-0.587로 결정계수는 영양생장기＜생식생장기＜등숙기의 순으로 컸다. 4. 최대경계선 분석방법을 통하여 얻어진 각 생육시기별 수량기상지수를 기하평균하여 구한 종합수량기상지수와 수량과의 직선회귀식을 구하여 수량예측모형(Model I, II, III)을 작성하였다. Model I, II, III)은 각각 결정계수가 0.6512, 0.6703, 0.6129로 모든 생육단계에 걸쳐서 기간을 15-20일 단위로 세분하여 모든 기간의 수량에 대한 기상지수를 고려하여 전 생육기간의 종합수량기상지수를 산출한 Model II가 기상변화에 따른 수량변이의 설명도가 가장 높았다.

This study was aimed to determine the effect of basal application of Effective Microorganisms (EM) on the grow and yield of cucumber. For treatments, the EM was applied to soil with fertilizer composed with $N-P_2O_5-K_2O$-manure (24.0-16.4-23.8-2,000kg) in the 1.0 strength (defined as EM+1S), 2/3 strength (defined as EM+2/3S), 1/2 strength (defined as EM+1/2S), without fertilizer (defined as EM), or only fertilizer in the 1.0 strength (defined as 1S). In result, there was no significant differences of organic substance content and pH with the EM treatment. While the EC (Electric conductivity) concentration was decreased, plant-available P (phosphorus) was markedly increased. Chlorophyll content was highest in the treatment of EM+standard application rate for both semi-forcing and retarding culture. In contrast, no significant difference was found in plant height and internode length under the fertilizer treatment. Weekly harvested number of cucumber was highest at the treatment of EM+standard application for the semi-forcing culture, while it was 3.6 at the EM+1/2 application for the retarding culture. Weekly yield was greatest at the EM+standard application treatment and decreased with the decrease of fertilizer application rate. In addition, weekly yield was significantly reduced in the treatment of EM. There was no significant difference in yields by production time with the fertilizer applications?. Yield was increased with temperature for the semi-forcing culture, while consistent pattern was maintained for the retarding culture.

바이오에탄올 생산을 위한 대체 바이오매스 자원으로 갈조류인 다시마의 활용 가능성을 평가하기 위하여 산 가수분해와 에탄올 발효 특성을 검토하였다. 산 가수분해는 발효 가능한 당류의 생산량을 증가시켜 에탄올 생산량을 크게 증가시켰다. 최대 환원당 생산량은 묽은 황산(1.0 N)을 이용하여 $130^{\circ}C$에서 6시간 가수분해하는 조건에서 다시마 건조무게 기준 135 mg/g이었다. Saccharomyces cerevisiae(ATCC 24858)는 글루코오스, 갈락토오스 및 만노오스와 같은 $C_6$-당을 에탄올로 발효시킬 수 있지만 아라비노오스나 자일로오스와 같은 $C_5$-당은 에탄올 발효기질로 이용하지 못하였다. 최적 발효시간은 글루코오스 48시간, 갈락토오스 72시간, 만노오스 96시간으로 단당류에 따라 달랐다. 그럼에도 불구하고 S. cerevisiae를 이용하여 $35^{\circ}C$에서 96시간 발효를 통해 가수분해물로부터 얻을 수 있는 에탄올 생산량은 가수분해물 중의 총환원당으로부터 얻을 수 있는 이론적 생산량에 비해 4배 정도 높은 다시마 건조무게 기준 242 mg/g에 달하였다. 이는 가수분해물에 용존되어 있는 비환원당과 올리고당류들이 에탄올 발효에서 중요한 역할을 하고 있음을 나타낸다. 가수분해 용액 대비 다시마의 주입비율을 1에서 5%(w/v)로 증가시킴에 따라 에탄올 농도는 2.4에서 9.2 g/L로 증가하는 반면 단위무게당 에탄올 생산량은 242에서 185 mg/g으로 감소하였다. 다시마의 에탄올 생산성은 대략 7,400~9,600 kg/ha/year 정도로 평가되어 다시마가 바이오에탄올 생산을 위한 바이오매스 자원으로 매우 유용함을 알 수 있었다.

A group of Hanwoo (Korean cattle) steers (n=14,386) was sampled from a commercial abattoir located in Seoul over one year period (spring, summer, autumn and winter) and their carcass traits were collected. Carcass traits assessed by an official meat grader comprised degree of marbling, meat color, fat color, texture and maturity for quality grade, and back fat thickness, ribeye area and carcass weight for yield grade. A heavier carcass with a higher marbling score, more red meat color and white fat color received better quality grade (p<0.05). Regression analysis showed that the marbling score was the strongest attribute (partial $R^2=0.88$) for quality grade. Lighter carcasses with a thinner back fat and larger ribeye area received higher yield grade score. The back fat thickness was the most negative determinant of yield grade (Partial $R^2=-0.66$). The slaughter season had a little effect on quality and yield grades. As slaughter weight increased, back fat thickness and ribeye area increased linearly, whereas marbling score reached its asymptotic level at approximately 570 kg. As a consequence, quality grade showed a considerable improvement up to 570 kg, but increases in slaughter weight afterward showed a little benefit on quality grade. There was a clear curvilinear relationship between slaughter weight and yield grade in that the yield grade reached its highest point at approximately 490 kg and decreased afterward. These results suggested that 570kg at the age of 24 months might be the economic slaughter weight for quality grade but 490 kg for yield grade.

Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) is a plant native to the Andean region that has become increasing popular as a food source due to its high nutritional content. This study determined the optimal photoperiod, light intensity, and electrical conductivity (EC) of the nutrient solution for growth and yield of quinoa in a closed-type plant factory system. The photoperiod effects were first analyzed in a growth chamber using three different light cycles, 8/16, 14/10, and 16/8 hours (day/night). Further studies, performed in a closed-type plant factory system, evaluated nutrient solutions with EC (salinity) levels of 1.0, 2.0 or $3.0dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$. These experiments were assayed with two light intensities (120 and $143{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$) under a 12/12 and 14/10 hours (day/night) photoperiod. The plants grown under the 16/8 hours photoperiod did not flower, suggesting that a long-day photoperiod delays flowering and that quinoa is a short-day plant. Under a 12/12 h photoperiod, the best shoot yield (both fresh and dry weights) was observed at an EC of $2.0dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$ and a photosynthetic photon flux density (PPFD) of $120{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$. With a 14/10 h photoperiod, the shoot yield (both fresh and dry weights), plant height, leaf area, and light use efficiency were higher when grown with an EC of $2.0dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$ and a PPFD of $143{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$. Overall, the optimal conditions for producing quinoa as a leafy vegetable, in a closed-type plant factory system, were a 16/8 h (day/night) photoperiod with an EC of $2.0dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$ and a PPFD of $143{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$.

A flocculating sugar tolerant yeast strain was isolated from fermenting Takju. This strain was identified as Saccharomyces cerevisiae CA-1 according to the Lodder's yeast taxonomic studies. The isolated yeast could grow in 50% glucose and in 7% ethanol in the YPD medium. It's optimal growth temperature, initial pH, shaking rate and initial glucose concentration for ethanol fermentation showed 35$\circ$C, 4.5, 150 rpm, 15%, respectively. Ethanol concentration was 63 g/l in 20% glucose after 24 hours, fermentation yield was 0.49 g-ethanol/g-glucose in 10% glucose after 24 hours and ethanol productivity was 3.09 g/l$\cdot $h in 10% glucose after 12 hours in batch fermentation. Repeated batch fermentation was possible for over 50 days and ethanol yield, ethanol productivity and substrate conversion rate were 0.39-0.50 g/g, 1.63-2.08 g/l$\cdot $h and more than 99%, respectively during these periods.
