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.

There exist some regular multiple relations in the intervals of notes when they are combined within one measure. This paper presents a method to find the exact measure positions in monophonic song based on those relations. In the proposed method the individual intervals are segmented at first and the rules that state the multiple relations are used to find the measure position. The measures can be applied as the foundational information for extracting beat and tempo of a song which can be used as background knowledge of automatic music transcription system. The proposed method exactly detected the measure positions of 11 songs out of 12 songs except one song which consist of monophonic voice song of the men and women. Also one can extract the information of beat and tempo of a song using the information about extracted measure positions with music theory.

The effects of bar deformation properties on bond of steel reinforcing bars to concrete are experimentally studied to predict the bond strength. Based on the previous research about high relative rib area, bond strength between reinforcing bars and concrete can be improved by the control of rib height and spacing. But, the equations in Korean code provisions to estimate development and splice length do not include these specifications of reinforcing bars. So the purpose of this paper is to determine the effect of relative rib area to the bond strength. This paper describes 2 kinds of experimental researches. Thirty beam-end specimens were tested to investigate the effects of bar size and relative rib areas ranging from 0.112 to 0.162. And, twelve lap-splice beam specimens were tested to the same variables. Each test results are normalized and compared with the proposed equations of ACI 408 committee. The results show that bond strength is increased as bar size and the relative rib area(Rr) increase. The distribution of flexural cracks and failure aspect do not appear to be affected by $R_r$.

A new deformation of reinforcing bar in coils was proposed to improve a machinability of straightening process, which has crescent-shaped transverse ribs with an inclination angle of 50 degrees, a crest width of $0.15d_b$, and a flank inclination of 55 degrees. The proposed deformation can increase contact area between a surface of re-bar and a groove of a roller during a straightening process and, therefore, it might reduce a damage of ribs, improve a final straightness, and enhance an efficiency of the straightening process. Splice tests were conducted to evaluate bond strengths of three types of re-bar in coils including the proposed re-bar, of which the inclination angles of transverse ribs were 50, 60, and 90 degrees, respectively. Test results show that the re-bars in coils have higher bond strengths than predicted strengths by equations of Orangun et al., ACI 408, and KCI by at least 10%. Correlation coefficients of bond strengths between a straight bar and re-bars in coils are 0.94 and more. Consequently, equations of the KCI code for determining development and splice lengths can be applied to the tested re-bars in coils.

This study was carried out to find the effects of seed tuber position and number of nodes on growth of Saururus chinensis Baill. at experimental field of Chungbuk Provincial Rural Development Administration from 1996 to 1997. Seed tubers were divided into upper, middle and lower parts, and they were prepared to 1-, 2-, 3-node cuttings in each. Percentage of sprouting in planting of middle part was highest of 92%, and the percent increased by increasing the number of nodes. Growth of shoot and root tuber was the most favorable with planting of 3-node cuttings of middle part, and leaf area index (LAI) was highest of 3.10 in the same treatment. Dry matter weight and percentage of root tuber were highest of $821g/m^2$ and 28 % with planting of 3-node cuttings of middle part. Yield of dry leaf and root tuber were highest of 272kg/10a and 821kg/10a with planting of 3-node cuttings of middle part.

The antennal receptors of the adult male and female of the American leafminer, Liriomyza trifolii (Diptera: Agromyzidae) was studied using the scanning electron microscopy. This antennal receptors were developed to accept the chemical or mechanical signal in the environment. The antennae of L. trifolii is 317.52 $\mu$m long and composed of the scape, pedicel, funicle, arista. Antennae located between compounds eye on the middle in the head. The result of SEM observation, four types of receptors were characterized and grouped into morphological classes: Trichoid, Basiconic, Coeloconic, Chetiform sensilla. Trichoid sensilla are located on the all segment. As a rule, female is more than male. This sensilla are long and slender hair with straight or slightly curved, and taper to a sharp point apically. Basiconic sensilla are observed only on the funicle. The number of basiconic sensilla in male and female are almost same in both sexes. This sensilla are long and thick hair with stright or slightly curved, and taper to a blunt point apically. Coeloconic sensilla are observed only on the funicle. This sensilla were showed a finger-like projections the peg apex. The number of basiconic sensilla in male and female are almost same in both sexes. Chetifarm sensilla are located on the all segment. This sensilla are needle-like, tapering sharply. Pedicel are more than scape. The number of Chetiform sensilla in male and female are almost same in both sexes.

Occurrence of Scrobipalpa salinella (Zeller) was investigated on glasswort in Shinan, Jeonnam and Kimjae, Jeonbuk from 2010 to 2011. The occurrence of S. salinella observed four times in a year. Adult stages of S. salinella in two areas occurred from mid-April to late September. The peak times of 1st, 2nd and 3rd generation adults of S. salinella was observed on early May, mid-June, late July (in Kimjae) to early August (in Shinan) and early September, respectively. And larval stages of S. salinella occurred from late May to late August. The peak times of development of 1st, 2nd and 3rd generation larvae of S. salinella was observed on mid-June, mid-July and mid-August, respectively. However, the 4th generation larvae began to occur in mid-September but didn't damage in glasswort. Among the distances from the bank of glasswort field (3, 6, 9 m) and periods of damage (Jun. 16, Jul. 7, Aug. 12), larval density in 3 m distance from the bank in 1st damage season (Jun. 16) was high which resulted to severe damage. Damage of 2nd and 3rd generation larvae was progressed both density of larvae and levels of damage.

In this study, the antioxidative effects and component analysis of Polygonum aviculare (P. aviculare) extracts were investigated. The ethyl acetate and the aglycone fraction from P. aviculare extracts were more active than (+)-${\alpha}$-tocopherol and $\small{L}$-ascorbic acid, which are known as strong antioxidants for their antioxidative activity by the DPPH method and chemiluminescence assay. The cellular protective effects of fractions of P. aviculare on the rose-bengal sensitized photohemolysis of human erythrocytes, increased in a concentration dependent manner ($1-10{\mu}l$). In particular, the ethyl acetate fraction at a concentration of $10{\mu}l$ showed the most prominent protective effect among all the extracts (${\tau}_{50}$, 314.70 min). TLC and HPLC chromatogram of the ethyl acetate fraction of P. aviculare extracts revealed 3 main bands (PA8, PA5, PA6) and peaks (peak 1, peak 2, peak 3), which were identified as myricetin-3-O-rhamnoside (myricitrin, PA8, peak 1), quercetin-3-${\alpha}$-rhamnoside (quercitrin, PA6, peak 3) by LC/ESI-MS/MS and $^1H$-NMR respectively. These results indicate that fractions from P. aviculare could be applicable to new functional cosmetics as antioxidants.
