Incidence of Fusarium wilt was surveyed in fields of summer radish in Gangwon province in Korea in 2018 and 2019. The disease started in early July and spread rapidly in hot summer of late July and August and in severe case, reached up to 80% in a field in Gangneung area. Symptoms in the seedling stage include poor growth and browning of internal tissue of root. During mid-growth, the leaves of diseased plant turned yellow over time, the surface of the roots changed from white to blackish, and the vascular tissues turned brown. A total of 23 isolates was obtained from the diseased plants and identified as Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. raphani by elongation factor-1α and intergenic spacer sequence analysis. Pathogenicity of the isolates was tested by artificial inoculation to the radish and other plants. All the isolates tested were pathogenic to radish plant, although there were differences in virulence on radish 11 cultivars. However, the isolates were not virulent to other plants except some cruciferous vegetables including Brussels sprouts, rocket, stock, and turnip. The results of pathogenicity test showed that it is necessary to rotate with crops other than cruciferous vegetables in order to prevent Fusarium wilt from radish fields.

High temperature stress might affect the yield and quality of Chinese cabbage. In order to develop cultivars resistant to high temperature stress, we developed polymorphic DNA markers for trehalose synthesis genes related to abiotic stress resistance. A total of 28 Brassica rapa ESTs homologous to trehalose synthesis genes of Arabidopsis were found from the NCBI database. The polymorphic DNA sequences were searched between Chinese cabbages - Chiifu, which is relatively susceptible to high temperature stress, and Kenshin, which is tolerant to high temperature stress. Among the 28 ESTs, we found 10 ESTs that have either insertion/deletion and/or single nucleotide polymorphism between the two cultivars. Those polymorphic sites were then targeted for the development of 10 PCR based markers. These molecular markers related to trehalose genes could be used not only to test their relationship with abiotic stress resistance in Chinese cabbage, but also the development of abiotic stress resistant cultivars using MAS.

The production of cabbage, which is mainly cultivated in open field, varies greatly depending on weather conditions, and the price fluctuation is largely due to the presence of a substitute crop. Previous studies predicted the production of cabbage using actual weather data, but in this study, we predicted the wholesale price using unstructured agricultural meteorological data on the web. From January 2009 to October 2016, we collected documents including the cabbage on the portal site, and extracted keywords related to weather in the collected documents. We compared the forecast wholesale prices of simple models and unstructured agricultural weather models at the time of shipment. The simple model is AR model using only wholesale price, and the unstructured agricultural weather model is AR model using unstructured agricultural weather data additionally. As a result, the performance of unstructured agricultural weather model was has been found to be more accurate prediction ability.

The larvicidal activities of Piper nigrum fruit methanol extracts and its constituents against larvae of the diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella, were investigated using the leaf dipping method. Administering the P. nigrum methanol extract resulted in 100 and 97% mortality against diamondback moth larvae at 5.0 and 2.5 mg/mL concentrations, respectively. Larvicidal activities of the P. nigrum fruit-derived piperidine alkaloids, piperine, and N-isobutylamide, as well as pellitorine, guineensine, pipercide, and retrofractamide A against P. xylostella varied according to test compound. Based on the 48 h $LC_{50}$ values, the most toxic compound to diamondback moth larvae was guineensine (0.013 mg/mL) followed by retrofractamide A (0.020mg/mL), pipercide (0.033mg/mL), and pellitorine (0.046 mg/mL). The $LC_{50}$ value of piperine was >0.5 mg/mL.

The effects of packaging methods on the storage properities of salted Chinese cabbage were examinined during 3-week storage. The weights of salted Chinese cabbage decreased to 69-77% by water loss and salinities decreased from 2.6% to 2.0%, respectively. The pH decreased from 6.4 to 6.2 for 1- week storage in all cases, but the pH increased to 6.6 in non packaging(Non-P), maintained at 6.2 in PVC container packaging(PVC), and decreased continuously to 5.5 and 5.7 in LDPE packaging (LDPE) and HDPE packaging(HDPE), repectively for 3-week storage. Reducing sugars increased slightly for 1-week storage for the relative concentration effect by water loss, but decreased to 1.8% for 3-week storage because of the microbial fermentation. Cutting force increased in LDPE for the continuous osmosis phenomena but decreased in Non-P for the putrefaction. As the results, LDPE was found to be the most effective packaging method.

The brined Chinese cabbages and kimchi seasoning mixture were separately stored and used for preparation of kimchi and the alternative method of conventional kimchi-manufacturing process was investigated. Chinese cabbages brined with 3% and 7% salt contents were stored at $0^{\circ}C$ and $10^{\circ}C$, and kimchi seasoning mixture without salt was stored at $4^{\circ}C$ and $10^{\circ}C$. The changes in pH and total acid of the cabbages were significantly slowly for the brined cabbage of 7% salt and storage at $0^{\circ}C$. Microbial growth including lactic acid bacteria were also increased slowly at $0^{\circ}C$. But, pH and total acid content of the kimchi seasoning mixture were not changed significantly at both temperatures during storage. Sensory evaluation on the kimchi samples showed that the modified method of kimchi preparation with separately stored seasoning mixture and brined cabbages is useful industrially or at home.

This study was performed to study tile organophosphorus pesticides residues removal effect of rice and Korean cabbage. Four organophosphorus pesticides(EPN, diazinon, fenithrithion, phenthoate) were artificially added to rice and Korean cabbage. Then they were washed with water and cooked differently to analyze the amount of pesticides residues reduced. The result of the study were as following; 1. The removal rate of pesticides residue on rice was 15.5∼35.4% an[ the amount of washing water was more influential in removal rate than number of washing. 2. The removal rate of pesticides residues through cooking processes after rice washing was 72.1∼77.8%. 3. The removal rate of pesticides residues through washing and cooking processes on the Korean cabbage were 18.4∼41.0%, 22.8∼92.7%. 4. As the amount of washing water of Korean cabbage increase, pesticides removal effect was higher. 5. Squeezing out the washed water from the cabbage increased pesticides removal rate.

Electrolyzed-acid water was used to prolong shelf life of salted Chinese cabbage during storage, Chinese cabbage was salted, washed twice with electrolyzed-acid water, packaged in high-density polyethylene film, and stored at $10^{\circ}C$. Titratable acidity, pH, color, and microbial loads of salted Chinese cabbage were measured. Treated sample showed lower pH, total microbial count, and lactic acid bacteria than those of control, whereas almost equal titratable acidity and color, Acidity of treated sample maintained lower pH value until 6 days, and remained constant thereafter, Sharp decrease in L value occured after 2 days for control, and was delayed 4-6 days for treated sample. Salted Chinese cabbage treated with electrolyzed-acid water showed lower total microbial load ($10^3\;CFU/mL$) and lactic acid bacteria ($10^1\;CFU/mL$) after washing, whereas similar loads, compared to control after 6 days. Treatment with electrolyzed-acid water maintained higher quality for salted Chinese cabbage, with limited shelf life extension.
