Research was conducted to establish the leaf and petiole sap test to diagnose the nutritional status of tomato. The concentrations of $NO_3$, $PO_4$, K, Ca, Mg and $SO_4$ ions extracted from the leaves and petioles in the different positions in a plant were measured and compared with their corresponding inorganic contents in the leaves analyzed by the chemical method. The ionic concentrations in the leaf and petiole sap showed the different values depending on their positions in a plant. The leaves and petioles in the lower positions of a plant had higher concentrations of $NO_3$, Ca, Mg and $SO_4$ ions. In particular, there were greater changes of ionic concentrations and less increases in the leaf length and width from the 9th compound leaf down from the uppermost cluster. On the other hand, the leaflets in a compound leaf had the same ionic concentrations. Therefore, it appeared that the optimal sampling position of leaf and petiole for the sap test is the leaflets of the 9th compound leaf down from the uppermost cluster. A good correlation between the sap test and the chemical analysis of plant showed that the ionic concentrations in the leaf and petiole sap reflect the nutritional status of tomatoes.

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of concentration of NO$_{3}$$^{[-10]}$ , $K^{＋}$ and $Ca^{＋＋}$ in nutrient solution on the seedlings growth of ‘Mudeungsan’watermelon. Seeds were sown on March 16, 1997. NO$_{3}$$^{[-10]}$ , $K^{＋}$ and $Ca^{＋＋}$ was treated with three different levels, respectively, NO$_{3}$$^{[-10]}$ = 106, 206, 406ppm; $K^{＋}$ = 150, 200, 400 ppm; $Ca^{＋＋}$ = 150, 200, 400 ppm. Plant growth was investigated at four-days interval in 10 days after treatment. Increasing N concentration in the nutrient solution increased the plant height, leaf area, number of leaves, fresh and dry weight of shoot while high concentration of K and Ca in the nutrient solution decreased the seedling growth in terms of leaf area, leaf dry weight. The uptake of N, K and Mg in petiole sap was positively affected by the adding of 206 ppm of nitrate, 150 ppm of potassium and 200 ppm of calcium levels, respectively. The P and Ca uptake in petiole sap was not affected by the N and K concentrations in the nutrient solution while K concentration above 200 ppm decreased the N and Mg content in petiole sap. High concentration of Ca in the nutrient solution increased the Ca content in petiole sap while Ca concentration above 200 ppm decreased the N content.

7 populations of rare endemic Berchemia berchemiaefolia were analysed using multivariate analysis for 9 characteristics of leaf morphology. The aim of this study was to examine geographic variation to support a genetic resource conservation plan of B. berchemiaefolia in Korea. In the morphological characters, nine characters of leaf were 10.25 cm (blade length), 4.10 cm (maximum width), 2.52 (blade length/maximum width), 3.22 cm (upper 1/3 width), 3.42 cm (lower 1/3 width), 0.95 (upper 1/3 width/lower 1/3 width), 1.24 cm (petiole length), 8.91 (blade length/petiole length), 8.16ea (vein number), respectively. Nested anova showed that were statistically significant differences among populations as well as among individuals within populations in all 9 quantitative characters. In 7 of 9 characters, variance components among individuals within populations were higher than those among populations. Cluster analysis using complete linkage method showed two groups (Chungbuk and Gyeongbuk districts) to Euclidean distance 1.2. Among principal components, primary 3 principal components appeared to be major variables because of the loading contribution of 87.3%. The first contribution was blade length, blade length/maximum width and blade length/petiole length; the second one was maximum width, upper 1/3 width and lower 1/3 width; the third one was petiole length, respectively.

In this study, we investigated the physicochemical quality characteristics and antioxidant activities of water extracts ($20^{\circ}C$ and $95^{\circ}C$) against different parts (leaf and petiole) from Wasabia japonica (wasabi). Water extracts were divided into six types of wasabi powders: leaf hot air dried (LD), petiole hot air dried (PD), whole (leaf+petiole) hot air dried (WD), leaf steamed and hot air dried (LSD), petiole steamed and hot air dried (PSD), and whole steamed and hot air dried (WSD). Turbidity was higher in wasabi $20^{\circ}C$ water extracts than in $95^{\circ}C$ hot water extracts. Browning degree was higher in wasabi leaf extracts than in petiole extracts. The pH of hot water extraction was lower than that of room temperature extraction. Wasabi extracts did not show much difference in Hunter's color values according to extraction temperature, expected that b value of yellowness was significantly higher in leaf extracts than in petiole extracts. Carbazole pectin contents of leaf extracts were significantly higher than in petiole extracts, however water soluble pectin was higher in petiole extracts. The total polyphenol contents of LD20 and LD95 were 1,561.43 mg gallic acid equivalent (GAE)/100 g and 1,163.02 mg GAE/100 g, respectively, and total polyphenols decreased during hot water extraction. Extracts from different parts of wasabi showed a significant difference in total flavonoid contents. Total flavonoid contents of LD20, LD95, PD20, and PD95 were 554.44 mg/100 g, 396.65 mg/100 g, 55.42 mg/100 g, and 47.68 mg/100 g, respectively. In the sensory evaluation, LD95 extract showed significantly higher values than other samples in terms of color, flavor, taste, mouth feeling, and overall acceptability. In the analysis of sourness, saltiness, umami, sweetness, and bitterness taste by an electronic tongue, the sourness values of LD20 and PSD95, saltiness values of WSD20 and WSD95, and umami values of PD20 and PD95 were significantly higher than other extracts. The results of this study suggest that wasabi leaf and petiole extracts enhance qualities and antioxidant activities when used different parts together.

The overwinter and survival of Colletotrichum gloeosporioides and Glomerella cingulata in strawberry tissues under field conditions was investigated in 2001 and 2002. The rates of overwinter survival in plant petiole, runner and crown were 68.7,14.3, and 26.7％, respectively. But, under field condition, viable conidia of overwinter were not detected at the surface, 3, 5, and 10 cm depths of soil. To investigate the survival ability in soil and plant debris, C. gloeosporioides and G. cingulata isolates from strawberry were examined in laboratory and field. The viability of conidia was rapidly declined in all the treatments, with a 40％ reduction in population within 10 days. In soil, the survival ability of G. cingulata conidia was similiar to that of C. gloeosporioides. The survival rate of conidia was highest under cool and dry soil conditions, and was decreased by increasing both soil temperature and moisture content. Similar results were also obtained under the condition that infected petioles were buried in soil. Results suggested that conidia as well as plant debris might be a main primary inoculum source of strawberry anthracnose.

The stems of P etasites japonicus were extracted with ethanol and then partitioned with hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, n-butanol and water, successively. The antioxidant potency of five crude fractions were determined using (1) 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging assay, (2) thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) assay in the linoleic acid model system, and (3) lipoxygenase inhibition assay. Among the crude fractions, the ethyl acetate fraction exhibited the most potent antioxidant effect. By activity-guided fractionation, compound PJ-4 was isolated from the ethyl acetate fraction through the repeated silica gel open column chromatography. The chemical structure of the isolated compound was determined as kaempferol by $^1H-$ and $^{13}C$-NMR analysis and its antioxidative capacity was further investigated. DPPH radical scavenging activity of the compound was 65.76% at the concentration of $100 \;{\mu}g/mL$. The inhibitory activity of the compound against lipid peroxidation and lipoxygenase exhibited 43.47% and 58.60%, respectively at the concentration of $100\;{\mu}g/mL$. The result suggests that the compound may serve as a useful natural antioxidant and furthermore indicates the possibility of developing the stems of Petasites japonicus as a natural antioxidant source.

This study was carried out to compare isozyme band pattern, growth characteristics and tuber yield of Dioscorea batatas to get basic information for varietal classification. It could be identify clearly by protein and esterase band pattern of leaf, petiole and stem tissue in three cultivar but with peroxidase band it was difficult to identify because of similar pattern in leaf and petiole tissue. Three cultivars has different leaf shape as Dan-ma and Jang-ma were lanceolate, Sukunea was long-heart shape in upper part of plants. In phyllotaxis, Dan-ma and Jang-ma shows alternate and opposite but Suwon 2 shows opposite in upper parts of stem. Root length shows significant difference from 9.7cm to 51cm respectively as 30cm, 51cm and 9.7cm in Dan-ma, Jang-ma and Sukunea. Tuber yield of three cultivars were 27.5M/T in Dan-ma, 22.8M/T in Jang-ma and 22.8M/T/ha in Sukunea.

A nursery trial comprising 109 progenies of 5 populations of Cornus kousa was analysed using multivariate analysis of 12 quantitative traits (growth and leaf form). The aim of this study was to examine geographic variation of the species based on the single, existing nursery trial to support a genetic resource conservation plan of Cornus kousa in Korea. Nested Anova showed that there were statistically significant differences among populations as well as among families within populations in all 12 quantitative traits. In 10 of 12 traits, variance components among families within populations were higher than those among populations. Cluster analysis using complete linkage method showed three groups to Euclidean distance 0.8. Among principal components, primary 2 principal components appeared to be major variables because of the loading contribution of 91.9%. The first contribution component was maximum width, vein number, blade length/petiole length and upper 1/3 width lower 1/3 width; the second one was height, diameter at root collar, blade length, upper 1/3 width, petiole length and petiole length/vein number, respectively. But all characters showed no significant difference with the pattern of geographic distribution.

본 연구는 양액재배에서 영양진단에 기초한 배양액관리를 하기 위해 유효한 수단으로 이용되고 있는 신속하고 간편하며 정확한 즙액분석 방법(질산태질소의 정량방법, 인산정량방법, 즙액추출법, 추출비율, 마쇄시간 및 샘플채취 부위 등)들에 관한 비교검토를 하였다. 'Earl's Favorite 춘계 F$_1$호'를 1993년 1월 11일에 파종하여 본엽 3~4매의 묘를 스티로폼베드내 암면슬라브에 정식하여 비순환방식으로 재배했다. 즙액분석법은 결핍이나 과잉증상이 외관적으로 나타나기 전에 신속하고 간이한 즙액분석법에 의해 작물체의 영양상태를 진단하여 대응이 가능하다고 판단되었다. 즙액분석시 질산태질소의 분석에는 자외부흡광도법, 인산분석에는 바나드몰리브덴산법이 추천되었고, 추출비율은 1:4로, 엽병의 마쇄시간은 60초, 그리고 채취 부위는 일정부위로 하는 것이 바람직하다고 판단되었다. 그러나 샘플채취시간에 대해서는 채취시간에 따른 차이가 크기 때문에 앞으로 보다 상세한 검토가 요청되었다.
