This study was conducted to investigate optimum conditions for mass production of antagonistic microbes Pseudomonas azotoformans HC5. P. azotoformans HC5 is a potent biological control agent to control brown blotch disease caused by Pseudomonas tolaasii. This markedly showed the antagonistic activity against P. tolaasii, the most destructive pathogen of cultivated mushrooms. To define the optimum conditions for the mass production of the P. azotoformans HC5, we have investigated optimum culture conditions and effects of various nutrient source on the bacterial growth. The optimum initial pH and temperature were determined as pH 6.0 and $15^{\circ}C$, respectively. The optimal concentration of medium elements for the growth of pathogen inhibitor bacterium was determined as follows: 0.6% adonitol, 1.5% yeast extract, 0.8% $NH_4H_2PO_4$, 5mM $MgSO_4$, and 0.2% asparagine.

This study was conducted to investigate optimum conditions for mass production of ntagonistic microbes Alcaligenes sp. HC12. Alcaligenes sp. HC12 had a potent biological control agent to control browning disease caused by Pseudomonas agarici. Alcaligenes sp. HC12 markedly showed the antagonistic activity against Pseudomonas agarici, the most destructive pathogen of cultivated mushrooms. To define the optimum conditions for the mass production of the Alcaligenes sp. HC12, we have investigated optimum culture conditions and effects of various nutrient source on the bacterial growth. The optimum initial pH and temperature were determined as pH 9.0 and $30^{\circ}$, respectively. The optimal concentration of medium elements for the growth of pathogen inhibitor bacterium(Alcaligenes sp. HC12) was determined as follows: 0.5% dextrine, 1.5% yest extract, 1.0% $NaNO_3$, 0.5% $KH_2PO_4$, and 1.5% asparagine.

Several bacteria are known as the causal agents of diseases of the cultivated button mushroom(Agaricus bisporus) and oyster mushroom(Pleurotus ostreatus). Pseudomonas tolaasii is the causal agent of brown blotch disease of commercial mushrooms. Pseudomonas sp. HC1 is a potent biological control agent to control brown blotch disease caused by Pseudomonas tolaasii. This can markedly reduce the level of extracellular toxins (i.e., tolaasins) produced by Pseudomonas tolaasii, the most destructive pathogen of cultivated mushrooms. To define the optimum conditions for the mass production of the Pseudomonas sp. HC1, we have investigated optimum culture conditions and effects of various nutrient source on the bacterial growth. The optimum initial pH and temperature were determined as pH 5.0 and $20^{\circ}C$, respectively. The optimal culture medium for the growth of tolaasin inhibitor bacterium was determined as follows: 0.9% dextrin, 1.5% yest extract, 0.5% $(NH_4)_2HPO_4$, 4mM $FeCl_3$, and 3.0% cysteine.

The present investigation was conducted to determine the chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal efficiency by Pseudomonas aeruginosa EMS1. The COD removal efficiency in the medium containing 1% metal working fluid (MWF) was 12% after cultivation of 4 days. The composition of optimum medium for the COD removal efficiency of 1% MWF by P. aeruginosa EMS1 were NH$_4$Cl 0.3%,$ K_2HPO_4\; 0.05%,\; KH_2PO_4\; 0.04%,\; MgSO_4.7H_2O\; 0.05%,\; CaCl_2.2H_2O 0.03%$ and $FeSO_4.7H_2O$ 0.04% at initial pH 7.0 and $30^{\circ}C$. Under this condition, the highest the COD removal efficiency was observed after 4 days.

This study was conducted to determine the optimum root zone environment condition and proper nutrient management system for lettuce in hydroponics. For the root zone environment condition, several level of pH and electrical conductivity (EC) were treated respectively. Though all the level of pH 4 to pH 8, except pH 3, performed better growth without any visible physiological disorder, the optimum pH of the nutrient solution for lettuce production was pH 5.5 to 6.0. The optimum ionic strength of the solution was EC 1.2 to 1.6 mS $cm^{-1}$ / because higher nutrient level caused tip burn symptom by calcium deficiency. Considering the above results, it is concluded that lettuce can be efficiently mass-produced through the optimum root zone environment.

Demands for eco-friendly food materials are increasing rapidly because of increased interest in well-being and health care, deterioration of air quality due to fine dust, and various soil and water pollution. Aquaponics is a system that can solve various problems such as economic activities, environmental problems, and safe food provision of the elderly population. However, techniques for deriving the optimal growth environment should be preceded. In this paper, we intend to design an intelligent plant growth measurement system that considers the characteristics of existing aquaponics. In particular, we would like to propose a module configuration plan for learning data and judgment systems when providing a uniform growth environment, focusing on designing systems suitable for production sites that do not have high-performance processing resources among intelligent aquaponics production management modules. It is believed that the proposed system can effectively perform deep learning with small analysis resources.

Nutritional and physio-chemical conditions for mycelial growth and fruit-body formation of Pleurotus florida were determined in synthetic media. Mannitol and sucrose were good sugar substances for the mycelial growth and fruit-body formation whereas less mycelial growth and no fruit-body formation was obtained with arabinose, lactose and inulin. The optimum concentration of mannitol was about 2%. Peptone as a nitrogen sources resulted in a rapid mycelial growth and fruit-body formation with higher yield, but nitrite-nitrogens inhibited the mycelial growth. The higher yield was obtained with 0.2% peptone. Among the vitamins used, the greatest mycelial growth and fruit-body formation brought about by thiamine and folic acid. $KH_2PO_4$ and $MgSO_4$ at 0.2% and 0.02%, respectively, were effective for the mycelial growth and fruit-body formation, but other inorganic salts used were ineffective. The optimum temperature for mycelial growth and fruit-body formation were $25^{\circ}C$ and $20^{\circ}C$, respectively, and light intensity of $100{\sim}500\;lux$ and pH 6.0 appeared to be effective.
