The cooking processes of Yackwa writen in 27 Korean books were reviewed. The changes of the names, shapes, materials and methods of dough, and the methods of frying, the materials and methods of soaking, garnishes were reviewed based on the historical literatures. 1. The changes of names of Yackwa were Yackwa, Kwajul, Chokwa and the shapes were bird, animal, round or cubic. The diameter was about 3.5cm, and thickness was from 0.5cm to 1.5cm. 2. The major ingredients of Yackwa were flour, honey, sesame oil and alcohol beverages. Sometimes, soybean powder and rice powder were used instead of flour, and chochung, sugar water, sugar syrup were used instead of honey. Sesame oil was usually used but salad oil were used occasionally. Usually pure liquor, distilled spirits, rice wine, cloudy and coarse rice wine, whisky were used as alcoholic ingredient and water was used at boiling state. Sesame and sesame salt, ginger and ginger juice, pepper powder, pine nuts powder, salt were used as minor ingredients. 3. Though the flour was kneaded extensively or gently, the latter was peculier since 1940. 4. The dough was fried in oil at $120{\sim}160^{\circ}C$ for $5{\sim}15$ minutes. at that time, The shape will be broken if temperature of oil is too low and too harden if temperature is too high. 5. Fried dough was soaked in honey before 1940, but thereafter other sweeteners, such as chochung, syrup were also used. Ginger juice, dried ginger, citron juice were used for flavor. 6. For enhancing the flavor and softening excess oil was removed from the fried Yackwa, and then it was soaked in honey. 7. The garnishes of Yackwa were pine nuts powder, cinnamon powder, sugar, etc.

Recently, the interest and consumption of mini watermelon (Citrullus lunatus Thunb.) are increasing due to nuclear family and one person household. However, there's no research for mini watermelon. Therefore, the purpose of the study is to develop standard cultivation method of mini watermelon. The test cultivar is 'Minimi', which is a small-sized fruit, the rootstock is 'Bullojangsaeng', which is a cucurbit line. Grafted plants were transplanted on April 5, 2017, and harvested in early July. Cultivated types were 3 methods, which are ${\cap}-form$, arched, and runner type, and plant spacing were 40, 60, and 80 cm, respectively. The rowth and yield in ${\cap}-form$ was higher than that of the arched and runner types, and the sugar content was higher a bit. The yield per unit area was about 50% higher than ${\cap}-form$, which can be plant density cultivation than that of the runner type. The number of seeds per fruit of 'Minimi' was similar to that of 'Sambokggul', but seed weight was one third lower than that of 'Sambokggul'. The content of lycopene was 30% higher than that of 'Sambokggul' watermelon, and the main sugar content is similar to or slightly less. In conclusion, the ${\cap}-form$ staking cultivation was superior to the runner type or arched cultivation in terms of fruit setting ratio, yield and quality.

Fermentation characteristics for the production of honey wine (mead and melomel) was investigated. Among the yeast strains tested, Saccharomyces bayanus showed higher alcohol production and better fermentability than the other strains at low temperature. Optimum pH and temperature for the production of honey wine by Saccharomyces bayanus were pH 4.0 and $20^{\circ}C$, respectively, and optimum soluble solid content of diluted honey solution for the fermentation was between 24 and $27^{\circ}Brix$. Total acidity and pH of honey wine (mead) did not change considerably during the whole period of fermentation, but those of Tangerine and Japanese apricot honey wine (melomel) changed during the fermentation. As the fermentation progressed, reducing sugar decreased continuously until the late period of fermentation, while alcohol content increased continuously during the same period. After fermentation of 21 days, honey wine consisted of about $8.5{\sim}9.1^{\circ}Brix$ of soluble solid, $1.90{\sim}2.32%$ of reducing sugar with the conversion rate of $90{\sim}92%$. After 21 days of fermentation, alcohol contents of mead fermented with polyflower and acasia flower were 13.3 and 13.7%, respectively. Final alcohol content was not affected significantly by the source of honey. While pH of the osmotically extracted fruit honey juice decreased rapidly to pH $2.92{\sim}2.97$ after 13 days of fermentation, total titratable acidity of Tangerine and Japanese apricot honey wine were 0.30 and 0.53%, respectively. After 13 days of fermentation, reducing sugar of fruit honey wines were reduced to $2.03{\sim}2.87%$, alcohol content were reached up to 13.1 and 12.5% for Tangerine and Japanese apricot honey wine, respectively. Generally, honey extracted fruit juices were fermented more efficiently than diluted honey juice.

Poor fruit set during winter period is one of the biggest problem in plastic tunnel watermelon cultivation. Hand pollination is inevitable to maximize fruit set of the winter watermelon. Productivity and viability of pollen grain and organic solvents for pollen storage were investigated. All cultivars produced more than 10 mg/flower except for 'Kumchun' cultivar. Pollen amount per flower were 13.8 mg in 'Bok' and 12.1 mg in 'Speedkul'. Germination rate of pollen grains incubated at $30^{\circ}C$ right after soaking in pentane solvent were 76% in 'Kumchun' as the lowest and 92% in 'Apollokul' as the highest. The pollen of 'Bok' showed the highest germination rate by 75% after a 15-day storage in pentane. All cultivars showed their pollen germination rate below 25% after a 24-day storage. Among the cuitivars, speed of pollen tube growth in vitro were relatively lower in 'Kumchun' and 'Sambokkul' by below $50\;{\mu}m/hr$. Pollen tube of these cultivars tended to burst during its elongation on the medium. Pollen stored 24 hrs in organic solvents showed 45, 39, 34, 23, and 19% of germination in pentane, ethyl ether, n-hexane, ethyl acetate, and acetone, respectively. Compared with light condition, pollen viability was higher in darkness during pollen storage in organic solvents. Pollen grain was susceptible to the organic solvent. The viability of pollen grains seems to be influenced greatly by duration of soaking pollen in organic solvent and the polarity of solvents. Organic solvent damages surface of pollen grain and extent of damage was varied by the solvents.

This study was carried out to develop a traditional functional beverage by using hot-water extraction of dried peels of Korean tangerine. The pH of the hot-water extracts of dried tangerine peels decreased as the extraction time increased. The acidity and viscosity of the extracts increased as the extraction time increased. The antioxidative activity of the extracts during the extraction was monitored by measuring the electron donating ability. The electron donating abilities of the extracts were in the range of 80.93-83.27%. Extraction time did not affect the antioxidative activity of the extracts. The fibrinolytic activity of the extracts increased as the extraction time increased. The pH of the beverage made with the peel extract was not affected by the extraction time and the kind of sweetener added. The viscosity of the beverage increased as the extraction time increased. In sensory evaluation the highest score was obtained in the beverage samples made with the ones extracted for 180 min and added with sugar. The aboveresults indicate that the dried peel of Korean tangerine can be used as a functional material in beverage industry.
