This study aimed to contribute fundamental study of sprouting in Gibberellin treated potatoes, and studied about Glucose and Sucrose amount and its sprouting stem structure in it sprouting seed potatoes with Gibberellin treatment. The results obtained are as follow; The quantity of glucose in gibberellin treated seed potatoes showed remarkable increase in comparison with that of those untreated, and the increment went up as the seeding date pass. As to the concentration of gibberellin, the 10 ppm plot contained more glucose than 5 ppm plot but 14th after seeding, it was found that this tendency was reversed. The increasing tendency of the quantity of sucrose in gibberellin treated seed potatoes were similar to that of glucose. The sprouting stems of the gibberellin 10 ppm and 5ppm plot were all longer than the controls. And after 14 days on account of thin ing growth by gibberellin treatment, the sprouting stems of the 5ppm plot were longer than 10ppm plot. The microscopic vertical and cross section of the gibberellin treated sprouting stems showed larger cells than those of untreated. The cells of sprouting stem treated by gibberellin 10 ppm were larger than those of the stems treated 5ppm.

This paper aims to investigate the characteristics of house site selection and its expression of building through manuscript of Taegdanggip which was authored by Lee-sik in the middle of Chosun dynasty. Its results are summarized in the following. Firstly, as a Confucianist, Lee-sik selected his ancestor's grave site as well as his house site by means of divination sign. And then he interpreted the characteristics of the location from feng-shui perspective. Secondly, he built Taepoongdang(literally 'pond and wind house') as his house for retirement based on a trigram from the Book of Changes. He reflected the divination sign in consturcting his house Taekpoongdang. Finally, the location of Taekpoongdang and Baekagog village was well suitable to feng-shui theory.

To examine the relationship between air pollution and occurrence of disease in plants, we investigated the alteration of physiology and biochemistry of Ginkgo biloba by inoculating with Coniothyrium sp. and fumigating with 0.1 ${\mu}l/l\;SO_{2-}$ Visual damage did not appear but photosynthesis, $CO_2$ use efficiency(CUE) and water use efficiency(WUE) were reduced when G. biloba was exposed to $SO_{2-}$for 7days (8 hours a day). When inoculated with Coniothyrium sp., the seventies of damage in G. biloba showed a threefold difference between $SO_{2-}$ treatment (SI) and $SO_{2-}$ free treatment (SFI) at day 42 from initial inoculation. Little difference was observed in sugar contents that may be used pathogens feed, among control, SFI and SI. In spite of the reduction in photosynthetic rate, sugar contents and CUE were maintained. WUE was enhanced 13% more at SI than SFI. The $CO_2$fixation boosted because of enhanced WUE, and thus sugar synthesis was not affected. In addition, sugar transport seems to be retarded for some internal alteration. Consequently, the severity of SI was more serious than that of SFI because Coniothyrium sp. easily invades into the physical texture of G. biloba weakened by $SO_2$ fumigation and because sugar was accumulated in leaves of G. biloba.

Various recovery methods were investigated to maximize hemicellulose recovery from lignocellulosic material hydrolyzed by pure water. The pretreatment conditions of water hydrolysis were $170\~180^{\circ}C$ and 1 hour of reaction time. The percentage of hemicellulose solubilized increased as the temperature increased from 170 to $180^{\circ}C$. However, significant decomposition of sugar was observed at temperature of $180^{\circ}C$. From the results of water hydrolysis, the total amount of glucan in solid residue and liquid hydrolyzate was close to the total glucan in the original biomass. For hemicellulose, however, there was a significant difference between both contents. To prove this difference, various recovery methods were proposed. From the total sugar accountability (sugar in liquid + sugar in solid), it was confirmed that hemicellulose recovery in the hydrolyzate was increased if the product including both hydrolyzate and solid residue was physically stimulated by such as heating and ultrasound irradiation. This indicated that, in commercial scale processes that much bigger substrate sizes are used and a sufficient amount of leaching solvent can not be used after pretreatment, a significant amount of oligomers could be trapped in the solid matrix.

The polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are mostly synthesized by the marine original microorganisms. In this study, the effect of concentrations of glucose, NaCl, and $MgSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O$ on both the growth and the production of lipid and Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) was investigated using Thraustochytrium aureum ATCC 34304. $Y_{Lipid/X}\;and\;Y_{DHA/Lipid}$ increased according to the increase of initial glucose concentration until 15 g/L of glucose. The maximum values of $Y_{Lipid/X}\;and\;Y_{DHA/Lipid}$ were 0.18 g/g and 0.41 g/g respectively at 15 g/L of glucose. The biomass yield, $Y_{x/s}$, however, was constant as 0.378 g/g regardless of initial glucose concentrations in the range of 5 g/L to 25 g/L. The specific growth rate of T. aureum increased also with initial glucose concentration from 5 g/L and 15 g/L. The maximum value was $0.79\;day^{-1}$ at 15 g/L of glucose, and the growth rate decreased to $0.57\;day^{-1}$ and remained constant according to initial sugar concentration in the range of higher than 15 g/L of glucose. The concentration of NaCl was changed from 0 g/L to 48 g/L, in order to study the characteristics of the growth and the production of lipid and DHA according to NaCl concentration. The growth and the production of lipid as well as DHA stopped all at 0 g/L of NaCl and the maximum values of all the three variables occurred at 24 g/L. The effect of $MgSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O$ concentration was also investigated not to find the growth and the production of lipid and DHA at 0 g/L. However, the growth and the Production with $MgSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O$ concentration increased to reach the maximum values at 18 g/L of $MgSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O$.

Dow99Ca350 (Dowex monosphere 99Ca/350 separation resin), MFG-220, and Finex CS-10GC are ion-exchange resins, and primarily used to separate sugars, and all of these resins have poly styrene DVB backbone, and sulfonyl group. These resins are already used to separate sugars continuously at sugar industry at constant temperature. These resins are used in experiments for understanding temperature effect on retention or adsorption behavior. Using Dow99Ca350, swelling test, porosity test, pulse test, and frontal analysis at various temperatures were performed. In the cases of MFG-220, and Finex CS-10GC, the effect of temperature variation was verified by pulse test. The experimental results are shown that Dow99Ca350, MFG-220, and Finex CS-10GC, which are commercial resins for sugar separation, are stable to temperature variation because the maximum change of retention time of fructose, and glucose are 1.76, and 3.37％ respectively.

Initiation of spore germination in filamentous fungi such as Aspergillus nidulans and Botrytis cinerea requires the presence of nutrients. In this study, involvement of sugar sensing machinery was suggested in the germination of A. nidulans spores. Germination did not occur when the spores of A. nidulans were incubated in distilled water, whereas they were successfully germinated in the presence of 5% glucose with a germination rate of over 98% after 6hr incubation. Similar results were obtained when the spores were incubated in the presence of various sugars such as fructose, sucrose, and starch. Interestingly, spore germination was not observed in the presence of D-arabinose, whereas L-arabinose could induce germination as determined by the formation of germ tubes, indicating the presence of sugar sensing machinery that distinguish between the enantiomers of sugars. This inference was further supported by a decrease in germination rate (less than 25%) upon treatment of spores with trypsin. Subsequent MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry analysis of the surface proteins of spores identified ten proteins among which eight were involved in sugar metabolism. Taken together, our results suggest that spore germination in A. nidulans is initiated by the interaction of sugars with sugar binding proteins on the surface of spores.

The effects of temperature (70-$100^{\circ}C$), pH (3-8) and various sugars were investigated on the reaction rate, activation energy and z-value of Maillard reaction of 0.8m sugar and 0.8m glycine mixture. The sugars compared were glucose, fructose, lactose and sucrose, and the reaction was evaluated by absorbances at 278nm for pyrazine compounds and at 400nm for brown pigments. Fructose-glycine mixture showed a faster initial reaction rate than that of glucose-glycine, which was reversed by the order of glucose > fructose > lactose > sucrose after 10 hrs of reaction at pH 5.8 and $100^{\circ}C$. Generally, higher activation energy was required for forming pyrazines than that of brown pigment development. The highest z-value was obtained for lactose-glycine mixture, followed by glucose or fructose-glycine which had almost same z-value. The reaction rate was little affected by the pH change in the range of 4-6, while pH < 3 and pH 6-8 caused a significant increase in the rates.

Sweet potato is a crop vegetatively propagated by vine cuttings, an ineffective method for maintaining pathogene-free stock plants. As an alternative method, single-node cultures of virus-free plantlets derived from apical meristem in sweet potato (cv. Yulmi) was examined. Effective pH range, sugar concentration and nodal order were investigated to establish an in vitro mass propagation system with high quality virus-free stock plantlets to farmhouse. Although the plantlets grew at wide range of pH, the most effective pH of the medium was 4.8 in single-node cultures. High sugar concentration of 60∼80 g/L resulted in increased growth response in shoot length, root length, number of node, leaf area and fresh and dry weight of shoot and root, whereas reducing sugar contents below 6% was showed reduced growth response. The first node including meristem tip was the best for the rapid growth of plantlets and the other nodes also showed a very similar growth response. Uniform plantlet can be obtained massively at the same time by culture of single node except for the first node including meristem tip. In conclusion, the most effective pH range and sugar concentration of medium for the growth of plantlets via single-node cultures was 4.8, 60∼80 g/L respectively. The first node was the best for the rapid propagation of plantlets in nodal order.
