This experiment was carried out to find an optimum shading level for the growth of root and shoot, and to find the effect of shading level after August on the induction and growth of inflorescence of Phalaenopsis hybrid. The shading levels were 50%, 60%, 70%, 80% and 90% of natural light($1200{\mu}molm^{-2}s^{-1})$. The $CO_2$ uptake, transpiration rate, carbohydrate content, fresh weight and dry weight of Phalaenopsis hybrid were higher at 50-60% level than the others. But, it was diminished when the shading level was increased from 70% to 90%. Inflorescence length, the number of inflorescence and flower per plant all increased under 50-60% shading level and the day needed for the flowering after treatment decreased. Especially, the induction of inflorescence was depressed and flowering is not occurred under 90% during experiment period. These results suggest that the optimal shading level for the growth of Phalaenopsis including inflorescence was founded to be 50-60% in the season of light intensity and amount of sunshine decrease after august.

최근 기후온난화 및 다문화 가정 증가에 따라 아열대작물 재배 및 수요가 증가하고 있다. 차요테(Sechium edule (Jacq.) Sw.)는 멕시코 남부와 중앙아메리카가 원산인 아열대 채소로 박과에 속하는 다년생 덩굴식물이다. 차요테는 아삭아삭한 식감에 가벼운 단맛을 가지고 있으며, 그 맛이 오이, 무와 비슷하다. 라틴아메리카에서는 튀김, 샐러드, 수플레로 필리핀에서는 수프과 볶음의 재료로 활용한다. 국내에서는 식감이 좋아 열매를 장아찌 용으로 이용하거나 어린순과 잎을 무침용으로 이용하기도 한다. 차요테는 매우 낮은 칼로리를 지녔으며 포화지방이나 콜레스테롤을 함유하지 않아 다이어트 식품으로 알맞은 채소이다. 또한 비타민 C와 E, K가 풍부하여 피로 해소, 면역력 개선, 피부 미용, 감기 예방, 골다공증이나 암 예방, 동맥경화 방지는 물론 신경전달물질인 세로토닌과 멜라토닌 형성에도 도움을 준다. 그밖에 칼륨, 마그네슘, 망간, 구리, 아연 등의 미네랄이 함유되어 있어 세포의 성장과 분열, 면역체계의 활성화, 심장과 근육 기능 유지 등에 기본적인 도움을 준다. 따라서, 본 연구는 차요테의 가공식품 소재화를 위해 부위별 유용성분 함량 분석을 통한 차요테 이용 확대를 위해 수행하였다. 차요테는 잎에서 열매와 어린순에 비해 지방, 단백질, 탄수화물, 식이섬유 등이 높게 나타났으며, 비타민 C, E 및 칼슘과 철분도 높은 함량을 나타내었다. 또한 장에 존재하여 다당류를 단당류로 분해하는 효소인 Alpha-Glucosidase의 활성을 억제하여 탄수화물 흡수를 지연시켜 체내 혈당을 낮추는 효과를 나타내는 AGI 활성은 열매 부위에 가장 높게 나타났다.

Characteristic of hydrogen production was investigated to find the optimum heat pretreatment conditions for the anaerobic fermentation of food waste. The heat pretreatment of food waste enhanced the hydrogen yield due to the increase of soluble chemical oxygen demand (SCOD) and carbohydrate content. This result revealed that the maximum degrees of disintegration of SCOD and carbohydrate content were 55.1% and 223.6%, respectively. On the other hand, the improvement of hydrogen yield was insignificantly affected by heating reaction time at longer than 20 min; the increase of hydrogen yield was only about 7% between 20min and 1 hour. Therefore, the increase of reaction time more than 20min was not necessary.

This experiment was designed to gain information on factors affecting stubble death of orchardgrass (Dactylis glomerata L.) during the first rainy season. According to the experimental plan, the effects of sowing methods, drainages and cutting dates on the stubble carbohydrate content of orchardgrass, available soil moisture content of experimental plots, temperatures at the ground level and in the soil, and relative light intensity and humidity at the base of orchardgrass canopy were measured during the rainy season. The carbohydrate content of orchardgrass was sharply decreased to 2.9 % at 3rd day after cutting in the plots cut before rainy season and a gradural recovery was noted following the sharp reduction, but in the plots cut after rainy season, orchardgrass showed 5.5% of carbohydrate content before cutting and 3.0% at the 3rd day after cutting. The same pattern in both carbohydrate reduction and recovery was found between two cutting treatments. The available soil moisture content in the plots cut before rainy season was slightly higher than that in the plots cut after rainy season. But after the rainy season, the available soil moisture content in the plots cut after rainy season was higher than that in the plots cut before rainy season. Soil temperature at lOcm depths in the plots cut before rainy season was higher than that in the plots cut after rainy season. Daily maximum air temperature at the ground level in the plots cut before rainy season was higher than that in the plots cut after rainy season and changeable. Relative humidity at the ground level was below 70% in the plots cut before rainy season, but 75 to 90 % was observed in the plots cut after rainy season. Relative light intensity at the ground level in the plots cut before rainy season was much higher, recorded 50 to 90 %, than that in the plots cut after rainy season showing less than 10%. The results of this study suggest that the stubble death of orchardgrass during the rainy season is due to plant diseases influenced by a decrease of light penetration and increase of relative humidity at the base of the grass canopy.

In the present study, a new analytical method was devised for the simultaneous determination of soluble carbohydrates in soybean seeds using high performance liquid chromatography/evaporative light scattering detection (HPLC/ELSD). The limit of quantification (LOQ) for soybean soluble carbohydrates ranged from 5.6~7.6 mg/kg using the HPLC/ELSD method and from 16.2~33.9 mg/kg using the high performance liquid chromatography/refractive index detection (HPLC/RID) method. Therefore, the HPLC/ELSD method was more sensitive than HPLC/RID. The precision values for retention time and peak area of the HPLC/ELSD method were evaluated by inter-day (n=5) and intra-day (n=10) assays using a standard solution. All precision values (CV<2.5%) for soybean soluble carbohydrates were acceptable and fulfilled international acceptance criteria. All linear calibration curves were obtained with a correlation coefficient of $R^2$ >0.999. The contents of soluble carbohydrates for the "Shingikong" (yellow soybean) and "Cheongjakong 3" (black soybean) samples were analyzed using the HPLC/RID and HPLC/ELSD methods. The difference in carbohydrate contents between the two detection methods was significant. Carbohydrate contents in the HPLC/ELSD method were higher than those in the HPLC/RID method. Overall, the HPLC/ELSD method showed satisfactory resolution with a favorable LOQ and reproducibility. Therefore, these results indicate that the HPLC/ELSD method may be applied to determine the contents of soluble carbohydrates in soybean seeds and related food stuffs.

'Sinano Sweet' apple trees were defoliated at intervals of a month from May to October to simulate damage occured by hail and typhoon in Korea, accordingly fruit yield, reserve accumulations and return bloom were investigated. As the more severe defoliation degree was and earlier defoliation time was, fruit weight and fruit yields were more decreased. Fruit weight and yields of 30% defoliated trees, regardless of the defoliation time, showed no significant difference with those of control. Because carbohydrate contents of the 2-year old branches defoliated before August were even lower than those of branches defoliated after September, it was considered that defoliation time is more effective on the carbohydrate content than defoliation degree. Among the trees defoliated before August, 50% defoliated trees at August contained the lowest carbohydrate by 50% of control. Time and degree of defoliation had an effect on the number of flower buds following year. The number of return bloom in trees defoliated from May to July was decreased by delay of defoliation time and was the lowest in trees defoliated at July. On the other hand, it was not have a significant different between control and trees defoliated since August. Relationship between the number of return bloom and carbohydrate reserves showed positive correlation. As a result, it is considered that fruit thinning, when defoliation occurred in the growing season, needs for strengthening the sink function of remained individual fruit effect on fruit enlargement and for increaseing the carbohydrate reserve effect on return bloom.

According to the content of sugar and starch of each positional leaf sheath and internode at heading and 4 weeks after it using IR667-Suwon 214 (high yielding var. having tropical Indica parantage) and Jinheung (local leading var. temperate Japonica) rice grown in various cultivation seasons the suitability of grouping into the high sugar type (sugar>starch), sugar, tendency (increasing tendency in sugar content), high starh type (starch>sugar) and starch tendency (increasing tendency in starch) in carbohydrate metabolism was reexamined as follows. 1. Sugar tendency appeared strongly in IR667 than Jinheung, internode than leaf sheath, late season cultivation than early season, 4 weeks after than heading and high temperature than low temperature. Thus at heading, leaf sheath and internode of Jinheung in early and late season cultivation were high starch type, and lower internode in early season cultiattion and leaf sheath and internode in late season for IR667 were high sugar type. In very late season all internodes of both varieties except 1st internode of Jinheung at heading were high starch type. At four week after heading all leaf sheaths except 1st and 4th one of Jinheung and all internodes were high sugar type. High sugar type was intensified 4 weeks after heading in leaf sheaths than in internodes of IR667 in early season and of both varieties in late season. 2. The upper three leaf sheaths and internodes seem to work in the same way for carbohydrate translocation. Among them upper ones showed sugar tendency at heading and starch tendency 4 weeks after heading and it was clear in Jinheung. 3. The later the cultivation season, the higher the carbohydrate content (sugar+starch), and such tendency was clear 4 weeks after heading and in IR667, suggesting teanslocation inhibition by low temperature. 4. Grain filling rate (weight increase per day) was more rapid in early season cultivation and IR667 took shorter days to reach maximum rate. 5. The later the cultivation season, the greater the percent contribution of carbohydrate before heading to yield and it was always greater in IR667, a leaf sheath type. 6. Sugar and starch ratio appears to be determined principally by metabolic characteristics of variety according to growth process and secondly but considerably by environmental factors.

This study was conducted to evaluate optimal storage techniques for bare root plants and container seedlings of Quercus variabilis and Zelkova serrata in order to maintain high quality of seedlings until planting. Refrigerated storage treatments were given at two temperatures (-2℃ [freezing] and 2℃ [cooling]) for nine different durations (0, 15, 30, 60, 120, 180, 240, 300, and 360 days after storage). We analyzed total nonstructural carbohydrate (TNC) content and measured shoot moisture content (SMC) during the storage stage and survival rate (SR) and dry weight during the planting stage of seedlings. The TNC content and SMC of the seedlings of the two species decreased with an increase in storage duration. The TNC content of seedlings rapidly decreased after 180~240 days of storage. The TNC reduction rate in the freezing treatment was lower than that in the cooling treatment. Also, with an increase in the storage duration of the two species, the SMC reduction rate in the cooling treatment increased in comparison with that in the freezing treatment. In both the species, the SR after planting decreased rapidly after 60 days of cooling storage and 180 days of freezing storage, respectively. The SR after planting was less than 60% when the TNC content for both the species dropped below 20 mg g^-1. In addition, the SR was lower than 80% when SMC measured before storage decreased by approximately 30% and 20% for Q. variabilis and Z. serrata, respectively. Our results suggest that cooling (1~2℃) storage is recommended for a short-term period (2 months or less), whereas freezing (-2~-4℃) storage is suitable for longer periods (2~6 months). These optimal storage techniques, allied with seedling harvesting and handling systems, will improve the quality of seedling production in nursery stages and increase seedling growth performances in plantations.

The composition and antioxidant activity of three kinds of dried laver were compared (ondolgim, bandolgim, and paraegim). Dolgim was high in protein (>35%), carbohydrates (>41%), and minerals (>7.5%). Lipid content in dolgim was very low (<1%); eicosapentaenoic acid was the most abundant fatty acid. There were higher levels of carotenoids than phycobilin in dolgim, and chlorophyll among pigments was present at the least amount. Porphyran content was high (>110 g/kg), while tocopherol content was very low (<12.0 mg/kg). Ondolgim had the lowest levels of carotenoids, phycobilin, and chlorophyll, however, polyphenol content was higher in ondolgim. The antioxidant activity was the same among the three kinds of dolgim, and both water and a 20% ethanol extract of dolgim showed higher antioxidant activity than did a 100% ethanol extract. The results suggested that dried laver dolgim was a good food and that all varieties provided both food and health functionality.

최근 쌀 소비량이 감소되고 쌀중심 식생활의 영양적 우수성을 인식하지 못하여 쌀은 주식으로서 위치가 흔들리고 있다. 그동안 쌀의 영양특성에 관한 연구로서 주로 탄수화물 급원으로서의 당질에 관한 연구와 미강을 중심으로한 식이섬유, 미강유등에 관한 연구결과들이 발표되었다. 특히 미곡 부산물인 미강으로부터 다양한 유효성분들이 확인되어 그 효능이 보고되고 있으며 일부가 기능성 소재로서 제품화되기도 하였다. 그러나 실제 우리의 식생활에서 섭취되고 있는 백미 또는 현미상태에서의 유효성분의 분포 및 함량에 대한 연구는 미진한 상태이다. 본 연구에서는 쌀의 영양적우수성을 규명하고자 유효성분 중 phenolic acid와 폴리페놀 함량을 품종 및 도정도에 따라 조사하였다. 조생종인 오대와 만생종인 남평 품종으로부터 현미와 7분도, 10분도 및 12분도로 도정도를 달리한 백미, 도정도별 미강을 각각 제조하였다. Ferulic acid 등 쌀과 미강에 존재하는 phenolic acid 는 알칼리로 추출한 후 pH를 조정하고 에틸아세테이트로 반복 추출하여 HPLC로 분석하였다. 현미에 함유된 phenolic acid는 ferulic acid가 가장 많아 50％ 내외를 차지하였으며 p-coumaric acid, benzoic acid, sinapinic acid 순으로 검출되었다. 오대 현미의 총 phenolic acid 함량은 65.9 mg%로서 남평 현미의 57.2 mg%보다 높았으며 도정도가 증가할수록 백미 중의 총 phenolic acid 함량은 감소되었다. 미강 중에는 백미의 10배 량에 해당하는 phenolic acid가 검출되었고 benzoic acid와 m-hydroxy benzoic acid는 미강 시료에서만 검출되었다. 도정한 백미 중의 phenolic acid는 28.8∼51.7 mg%, 미강에서 321.4∼438.4 mg% 범위로 나타났다. 현미, 백미 및 미강에 함유된 총 폴리페놀의 함량을 표준 페놀화합물로 카테친을 사용하고 비색법에 의하여 측정하였을 때 오대 현미의 폴리페놀 함량은 78.4 mg%, 남평 현미 88.8 mg% 였다. 도정한 백미 중의 총 폴리페놀 함량은 30.3∼56.9 mg%, 미강이 541.5∼472.6 mg%의 범위였다. 이상과 같이 쌀에는 phenolic acid 및 총 폴리페놀이 상당량 함유되어 있으며 특히 배유보다는 강층에 많이 존재하므로 이들 성분의 효율적인 이용을 위한 쌀의 섭취방안이 필요한 것으로 나타났다.
