Disease occurrence in apple cultivars on 13-30 apple orchards from April to October 1992-2010 was investigated at 30 days intervals in Gyeongbuk, Gyeongnam and Jeonbuk provinces of Korea. Apple cultivar 'Fuji' was found most susceptible and is being damaged by cedar apple rust, scab, gray mold, Alternaria blotch and Marssonia blotch as major leaf diseases that were observed. The percentage of occurrence of these leaf diseases varies from every year. This variation is based on different rainfall and temperature conditions, cultivation, root stock and changed system of fungicide spray during the particular year and season.

Two-spotted spider mite (TSSM), Tetranychus urticae Koch (Acari: Tetranychidae) is one of the major pests in apple orchards. TSSM was known to show different population dynamics depending on apple cultivars. We tested the host plant preference and fitness of TSSM on the leaves of 3 apple cultivars, Fuji, Tsugaru, and Hongro. TSSM showed higher behavioral preference to Fuji than Tsugaru and Hongro, and showed a higher fecundity in Fuji. The immature development of this mite was the shortest in Fuji and longest in Hongro. Total fecundities were not significantly different among cultivars, but daily fecundity was higher and longevity was lower in Fuji. Hongro was the less preferred cultivar for TSSM, and showed the lowest fitness by life table parameters. These results could explain the possible mechanisms of differential population dynamics among apple cultivars. Further study including diverse apple cultivars currently available in Korea could help to deploy time- and cultivar- specific IPM tactics.

This study was attempted to develop the algorithm for recognizing fruits acquired from apple tree images with digital camera in sunlight. As the result of L*a*b* color transformation for reducing the effect of sunlight, a* and b* color index were effective to extract apple pixels in tree images and linear discrimination functions with color index a* b* were developed. To recognize fruits from apple pixels, those were classified into 4 patterns according to clustering condition and morphologically filtered. Test results showed that apple fruits unoccluded were exactly recognized, whereas apple fruits occluded with leaves and trunk were miscounted 2 apples on average.

Apple, one of the most important fruit crops world-widely, is required for rapid, cost-effective and sensitive virus detection for its better productivity. RT-PCR is extensively employed for apple virus diagnosis, but the technique requires complete tissue homogenization which is time consuming and laborious. In this study, heating-based RNA extraction method was developed and proven to effectively work for stem tissues slightly better than for leaf tissues. In RT-PCR, almost identical results were generated from the use of RNA extracts from both tissues.

In this study, in order to evaluate the possibility of applying apple leaf extract as a cosmetic material, we conducted an experiment by extracting with 70% ethanol. Apple leaf extract is analyzed by GC/MS, and toxicity is evaluated through polyphenol, flavonoid content and DPPH radical scavenging activity, antioxidant, and cell viability (MTT assay) OK, and nitric oxide (NO). It was confirmed that the NO production amount decreased 4.6 times in the group treated with the apology leaf extract through the measurement of the production inhibition of), and the anti-inflammatory effect was investigated. The total polyphenol content was 78.80 ± 0.25 mg /g and the total flavonoids were 65.25 ± 6.62 mg /g. It was confirmed that the DPPH scavenging activity increased sogonun at 79.8 ± 0.99,% at an extract concentration of 0.25%, 88.13 ± 0.89% at 0.5%, and 96.83 ± 2.00% at 1%. The cell viability was evaluated at 91.19 ± 3.49% even at a high concentration of 1000 ppm, confirming a viability of 80% or more. As a result of component analysis of GC-MS, it can be used as an antioxidant cosmetic material such as catechol (5.65%), DL-Gluciol (12.05%), Ascorbic acid (2.41%), Phytol (13.88%), Hexanoic acid (5.47%). Conceivable. The result of this experiment will be used as an important basic material in the development of natural functional cosmetic materials using apple leaf extract.

일반적으로 과수라 하면 사과, 배, 포도, 감, 밤 등 많은 종류가 포함되며 그들을 함께 묶어 해충관리에 대한 얘기를 하기는 어려움으로 여기서는 주로 사과, 배, 복숭아를 중심으로 많이 발생되는 주요 해충들에 대해서만 언급하기로 한다. 과수의 전 생육기간을 통하여 잎, 줄기, 뿌리, 과실 등을 가해하는 해충들을 대별하여 보면 나방류 해충으로 잎을 말고 가해하는 심식충류, 잎의 조직속으로 굴을 파고 들어가는 굴나방류, 성숙한 과실로부터 당분을 흡즙함으로서 피해를 입히는 과실 흡아류를 비롯하여 줄기속을 가해하는 유리나방, 하늘소 등의 줄기식입해충, 진딧물을 비롯한 각종의 잎 가해해충 그리고 곤충은 아니지만 일반적으로 편의상 곤충에 포함되어 취급되고 있는 응애류 등 각양각색이다. 우리나라에서는 이들 과수해충들에 대한 조사연구가 극히 미비한 상태로 주로 일본의 연구결과를 토대로 모든 방제대책을 적용하고 있는 실정이다. 특히 이들 과수해충들에 대해 연구하는 전문가가 국내에는 몇사람 되지않는 것이 심히 유감스러운 일이다. 본호에서는 이들 해충들중 여름철에 문제되는 종류들을 중심으로 그들의 개략적인 생태와 방제요령을 알아본다.

In the 82 apple varieties tested, the distribution of varieties grouped on the damage degree to Alternaria leaf spot were 15 varieties(l8.3%), which damaged above 50%, and 51 varieties(62.2%) damaged below 5%. Susceptible varieties to Alternaria leaf spot were Raritan, Indo, Winesap and Starkrimson, moderately resistant varieties Sekaiichi and Starking, and resistant Jonathan, Tsugaru, Molliies, Jonagold, Gala etc. The leaf hair density on the backside of leaf were rarer inresistant varieties than susceptible one. In inoculation test, penetration and infection of Alternaria mali were easier on the backside than surface of apple leaf at the same varity, and infection rate with Alternaria mali were higher at removal treatment than non-removal one of leaf hairs, so we can guess that leaf hair are related to resistance of variety to Alternaria mali.

A quicker method was developed for foliar analysis in diagnosis of nitrogen in apple trees based on multivariate calibration procedure using partial least squares regression (PLSR) and principal component regression (PCR) to establish the relationship between reflectance spectra in the near infrared region and nitrogen content of fresh- and dry-leaf. Several spectral pre-processing methods such as smoothing, mean normalization, multiplicative scatter correction (MSC) and derivatives were used to improve the robustness and performance of the calibration models. Norris first derivative with a seven point segment and a gap of six points on MSC gave the best result of partial least squares-1 PLS-1) model for dry-leaf samples with root mean square error of prediction (RMSEP) equal to $0.699g\;kg^{-1}$, and that the Savitzky-Golay first derivate with a seven point convolution and a quadratic polynomial on MSC gave the best results of PLS-1 model for fresh-samples with RMSEP of $1.202g\;kg^{-1}$. The best PCR model was obtained with Savitzky-Golay first derivative using a seven point convolution and a quadratic polynomial on mean normalization for dry leaf samples with RMSEP of $0.553g\;kg^{-1}$, and obtained with the Savitzky-Golay first derivate using a seven point convolution and a quadratic polynomial for fresh samples with RMSEP of $1.047g\;kg^{-1}$. The results indicate that nitrogen can be determined by the near infrared reflectance (NIR) technology for fresh- and dry-leaf of apple.

This study was conducted to observe some characteristics of aneuploid trees obtained from the crosses between diploid and triploid in the first experiment. The results showed that the difference among the percentage of aneuploid's pollen grain germination was large, and all of them were lower than that of diploid 'Hongro' (82.4%). The average weight and size of each aneuploid's fruit was far lighter and smaller than that of diploid 'Hongro'. According to the width and length, all of the fruits shape was flat or short-globose conical shape except for JF3942. Almost all the aneuploid had higher sugar content than 'Hongro', nearly half of aneuploid fruits were firmer than that of diploid 'Hongro'. As for the acid contents of aneuploid fruits, the results were greatly different from those of previous studies on diploid apples, in present study the citric acid and tartaric acid contents were more than the malic acid which are dominant acid in most cultivars of apples. Both the length and width of aneuploid tree were shorter than that of diploid 'Hongro'. Most aneuploid trees' height was longer than width, but there were 4 exceptions. The size of leaves was smaller than that of diploid 'Hongro' according to the length and width of leaves measured. In all, aneuploid's vegetative growth is not as vigorous as diploid.

녹병은 향나무뿐만 아니라 산당화, 꽃사과, 산사나무, 명자나무 등 조경수에도 많이 발생되며, 조경수목으로서의 미관적 가치를 크게 떨어뜨리고 잎 뒷면에 발생되는 녹포자퇴는 사람들에게 혐오감을 준다. 또한 배나무, 사과나무 등의 과일의 상품성과 생산량을 크게 저하시켜 농가에 큰 피해를 준다. 녹병은 일반적으로 농가에서는 붉은별무늬병으로 잘 알려져 있는 병해이다.
