This study was carried out with different nitrogen fertilization levels for the purpose of basic information of culture of chicory (Cichorium intybus L. var. foliosum) in Korea. Treatment level of nitrogen fertilization was separated as 0, 10, 20, and 30kgN/10a. Though the apparent growth of chicory was increased as the increasing level of nitrogen fertilization, the deterous effects such as tipburn and bolting were increased. The treatment of 15-25kgN/10a was suitable for the production of chicory having high quality and commercial value.

The selective chemical vapor deposition techniques for Cu metallization were studied. For enhancing the selectivity, furnace annealing and N$_{2}$ plasma were treated on patterned TiN/BPSG prior to the copper deposition. As a result, Cu did not deposited lead to suppressing the nucleation on BPSG singificantly. With the increasement the plasma treatment temperature, copper nucleation on BPSG was suppressed mote effectively, From TOF-SIMS(Time-of-Flight Secondary ion Mass Spectrometry), it is considered that annealing and N$_{2}$ plasma treatment remove hydroxyl(0-H) group so that eliminating the nucleation site for copper precursor enhance the selectivity.

This research was conducted to investigate the optimum level of nitrogen incorporated during formulation of root media as pre-plant fertilizer on the growth of plug seedlings of 'Bool-am No.3' Chinese cabbage. A root medium was formulated by blending peatmoss:coir dust:perlite at a ratio of 3.5:3.5:3.0 (v/v/v). The nitrogen was incorporated in the seven treatments at a rate of 0, 100, 250, 500, 750, 1,000, and $1,500mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ during the root medium formulation. The concentrations of other essential nutrients except nitrogen were controlled to equal in all treatments. Then, the root medium was packed into 72-cell plug trays and seeds were sown. The growth measurements as well as tissue and soil solution analysis for nutrients were conducted 2 and 4 weeks after seed sowing. As seedlings grew, the pH in the extracted solution of all treatments tended to decrease. The decreases in the treatments of high N concentrations were more severe than those with low N, but the differences among treatments were not statistically significant. The differences of EC in extracted solution of root media among treatments were sizable until week 3, but the differences began to lessen and the EC decreased in all treatments after week 4. Growth of the aerial parts of plug seedlings at 2 weeks after sowing were highest in the $100mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ and lowest in the $1,500mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ treatments, but those at 4 weeks after sowing were highest in the $500mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ and lowest in the $0mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ treatments among all treatments tested. The tissue N content was highest and lowest in the treatments of 250 and $1,000mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$, respectively, when tissues were harvested at 4 weeks after sowing and analysed based on the dry weight of above-ground tissue. The contents of micronutrients were the highest in the 1,000 and $1,500mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ treatments among all treatments. The results shown above indicate that the $250mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ of pre-plant N and elevation of post-plant N concentration to above $100mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ are suitable for raising plug seedlings of Chinese cabbage using inert media.

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of continuous feeding of probiotics on growth performance, nutrient digestibility, blood urea nitrogen(BUN) and immune responses in pigs. Treatments were 1) Control(basal diet), 2) P-O.l(basal diet + 0.1% probiotics) and 3) P-0.2(basal diet + 0.2% probiotics). In growth trial, a total of sixty pigs(6.17 $\pm$ 0.45 kg average body weight) weaned at 21 days of age were used. All pigs were assigned according to sex and body weight, and each treatment had 5 replicates of 4 pigs per pen in a randomized complete block(RCB) design. During 0${\sim}$8 weeks, there was no significant difference in average daily gain(ADG), average daily feed intake(ADFI) and gain:feed ratio(GfF) among treatments. During 9 - 20 weeks, ADG was improved significantly in pigs fed P-O.I or P-0.2 diets when compared to the pig fed control diet(P <0.05), but there was no significant difference in ADFI and GfF ratio. During overall period, ADG, ADFI and GfF ratio were not significantly different among treatments. In the first metabolic trial(17.93 $\pm$1.45kg average body weight), apparent digestibility of OM, protein, fat in pigs fed P-O.l and P-0.2 diets were greater than in pigs fed control diet(P <0.05) and ash digestibility in pigs fed P-0.2 diet was significantly higher than in pigs fed control diet(P <0.05). Calcium digestibility in pigs fed P-0.2 diet was significantly higher than in pigs fed control and P-O.I diets(P <0.05). Fecal-N excretion was lower in pigs fed P-O.! and P-0.2 diets than in pigs fed control(P <0.05). In the second metabolic trial(41.80 $\pm$ 2.68kg average body weight), there was no significant difference among treatments in apparent digestibility of nutrients and N-retention. In blood assay for the BUN and immune responses investigations, there was no significant difference among treatments during overall period of experiment. Therefore, this experiment suggested that probiotics supplementation could improve growth performance and nutrient digestibility of pigs.

We analyzed the patterns of mineral ions and growth responses among symbiotic nitrogen fixing legumes by external nitrogen applications under salt gradients. Glycine max, Phaseolus angularis and Albizzia julibrissin showed remarkable growth inhibition above 40 mM NaCl treatments, but Cassia tora did not exhibit any visible injury symptom up to 100 mM NaCl treatments. As to ionic pattern, the $Na^+$ and $Cl^-$contents in leaves of G. max, P. angularis and A. julibrissin progressively increased with higher contents of external salinity. Compared to other plants, C. tora excluded $Na^+$more efficiently and maintained rather constant ionic contents in spite of high salt levels. With a few exception, these 4 legume plants exhibited better growth by the external nitrogen supply rather than the contribution of symbiotic nitrogen fixation only under saline condition.

본 연구에서는 활성탄을 염화철로 표면 처리한 염화철처리 활성탄을 사용하여 지하수중의 ${NO_3}^{-}$－/-N 제거 가능성과 그 제거에 미치는 영향을 검토하고자 한 것으로 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1) 조제된 염화철 코팅 활성탄의 표면을 SEM으로 분석한 결과를 보면 활성탄의 표면에 염화철이 코팅되어 있는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 2) 통수유속이 0.5~4 BV $hr^{-1}$/로 낮을 경우는 질산성 질소 파과시점이 비슷하였으며, 통수유속이 커질수록 활성탄의 비표면적에 접하는 시간이 짧아져서 파과시점이 짧아진 것으로 사료된다. 3) 연속컬럼 실험(3.1 L)에서 통수량 약 82 L까지는 ${NO_3}^{-}$/-N의 파과시점이 나타나지 않았으며 재생액의 농도가 0.5 M-KCl에서는 약 9 L, 1 M-KCl에서는 약 7 L의 재생액이 사용되었고, 재생 후 각각의 파과시점은 약 53 L, 59 L로 유지되었다. 1 M-KCl의 재생액을 사용하여 재생하였을 경우 두번째 재사용과 재생부터 총 질산성 질소 제거량은 약 1,531~l,357 mg/kg, 탈착량은 약 1,526~1,306 mg/kg으로 일정하였다.

This study was carried out to evaluate the weight loss rates, carbon and nitrogen dynamics of wood stakes following soil amendment treatments (CLB: compound fertilizer + lime + biochar; LB: lime + biochar) in a post-fire restoration area, Ulsan Metropolitan city, southern Korea. Soil amendments in the fire-disturbed area were applied to two-times (Mar. and Jun. 2015, 2016) during the study period. Wood stakes on Mar. 2015 were buried at a top 15cm of mineral soil in two soil amendment and control treatments of Liriodendron tulipifera, Prunus yedoensis, Quercus acutissima, Pinus thunbergii plantations and an unplanted area in the post-fire restoration area. Wood stakes were collected at Oct. 2015, Mar. 2016 and Oct. 2016 to measure weight loss rates, organic carbon and nitrogen concentrations. Weight loss rates of wood stakes were not significantly affected by soil amendment treatments. However, remaining carbon of wood stakes were lowest in the control treatment (43.7%), followed by the CLB (71.3%) and the LB (71.6%) treatments. Remaining nitrogen of wood stakes was less in the control treatment (29.7%) compared with the LB treatment (52.6%). The results indicate that carbon and nitrogen mineralization of wood stakes in post-fire restoration area were delayed by soil amendment treatments.

Objective of this research was to evaluate the fate of nitrogen and phosphorous in hydroponic waste solution from the plastic film house cultivation applied to the upland soil by column leaching and field experiment. The pH and EC of leachate were decreased by the reaction with the upland soil in the column leaching experiment. The EC and concentrations of $H^+,\;K^+,\;and\;{NH_4}^+$ of leachate were decreased as the column length (soil depth) was increased. But these were increased as the amounts of the hydroponic waste solution were increased field experiment growing red pepper (Capsicum annum L.) to monitor the nutrients movement using ion exchange resin capsule demonstrated that the nutrient concentration of soil solution was increased in the orders of $PO_4-P. Nitrate concentration of resin capsule inserted into the soil was relatively higher than other nutrients $(NH_4-N\;and\;PO_4-P)$ at the 45 cm of soil depth. The overall results demonstrated that the hydroponic waste solution could be recycled as plant nutrients to enhance fertility of soils. But nitrate leaching was a major factor for safe use of the hydroponic waste solution in soil.
