Two medium-leaf ecotypes (CY6069, CY6097) belonging to one species (Zoysia japonica) of Korean lawngrasses were selected in sod production fields in Jang Seong, Korea. They were reported to have distinct morphological and growth rate characteristics different from the preferred medium-leaf type zoysiagrass in Korea. This study was conducted to define further the genotypic difference at the molecular level and to develop DNA marker based on the specific DNA fragment. Polymorphic DNA fragments were first explored by using randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) primers, which were then converted into PCR-based sequence characterized amplified region (SCAR) markers. The CY6069-specific primer set amplified about 550 bp successfully, while the CY6097 marker produced the expected 690 bp band, by which those markers were nominated by CY6069_550 and CY6069_690 SCARs, respectively. Together with the reported morphological and other phenotypic features, the SCAR markers confirmed in this study will be useful to identify those medium-leaf zoysiagrass genotypes when they are cultivated with other vegetatively propagated warm-season turfgrasses in sod farms.

유채(Brassica napus L.)는 식용유 생산을 목적으로 재배되며, 1975년에는 26.8천ha가 재배되어 연간 생산량이 34.7천톤이 생산되었으나, 외국으로부터 값싼 식용유의 대량수입으로 재배면적이 급격하게 감소되었다. 그러나 최근에 지방자치단체를 중심으로 경관용 재배면적이 증가하고 있고, 건강에 대한 관심이 높아짐에 따라 국내산 non-GM 식용유 생산을 목적으로 유채 재배면적이 급격하게 증가하고 있다. 유채의 대량생산을 위해서는 논 재배가 필수적이나 유채와 벼의 이모작 재배 시기가 겹치는 문제점이 발생하고 있어 조생종 유채의 품종개발과 함께 봄 파종이 가능한 유채의 품종 육성에 대한 요구가 매우 높다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 국내 보유 유채를 포함하는 십자화과(Cruciferae) 유전자원의 특성 평가를 통해 극조숙 유채 품종 육성을 조기에 육성하기 위해 실시하였다. 농촌진흥청 국립유전자원센터에서 분양받은 유전자원 146계통을 파종 재배하면서 핵형분석과 외부형질을 기준으로 정확한 종을 동정하였고, 각 유전자원의 생육 및 개화특성을 조사하였다. 유전자원들을 세포분석기를 이용하여 핵형을 분석한 결과, 전체 146개의 유전자원 중 유채(B. napus L.) 128계통, 갓(B. juncea Sinsk) 6계통, 배추(B. campestris Makino) 9계통, 미분류 3계통 등으로 조사되었다. 유전자원을 가을 파종(10월 22일)하였을 때 개화가 가장 빠른 계통(IT 279089)이 파종 후 137일 이후인 3월7일부터 개화가 시작되었고, 가장 늦은 계통(IT 279198)은 191일 후인 4월 30일에 개화가 시작되었다. 봄 파종(2월 4일)하였을 때 개화가 가장 빠른 계통(IT 279089)이 파종 후 79일 이후인 4월 23일부터 개화가 시작되었고 IT 279092 등 29계통은 추대와 개화가 되지 않았다. 위와 같은 연구결과를 토대로 개화시기가 빠른 유전자원을 육종을 위한 인공교배 시화분친이나 종자친으로 이용하면 지방산 품질이 좋고 극조숙성인 유채 품종의 개발이 가능할 것으로 생각된다.

Wine extracts of four different berry fruits, such as mulberry, blueberry, strawberry, and raspberry, were investigated for antioxidant, anti-tyrosinase, and ${\alpha}$-glucosidase activities by using in vitro assays. Additionally, quantitative changes of ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibitor in mulberry wine were determined by HPLC according to mulberry cultivars and fermentation process. Among four berry wines examined, mulberry wine showed the most potent ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibitory activity with 69.37% at 0.23 mg/mL, while blueberry and strawberry wines exhibited the strongest inhibition against DPPH radical and tyrosinase activity, respectively. Four compounds were isolated and purified from mulberry wine by a series of isolation procedures, such as solvent fractionation, and Diaion HP-20, ODS-A, and Sephadex LH-20 column chromatographies. Among them, Comp. 4 exerted the strongest ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibitory activity ($I_C_{50}=31.57{\mu}M$), and its chemical structure was identified as quercetin by UV and NMR spectral analysis. Finally, the "Daeseongppong" (16.83 ppm) muberry wine had larger amount of quercetin than the "Iksuppong" (14.85 ppm) and "Cheongilppong" (8.92 ppm) mulberry wines, but their contents of three mulberry wines decreased considerably with aging process. These results suggest that mulberry wine containing quercetin acted as ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibitor may be useful as a potential functional wine for improving diabetic disorder.

A series of experiments was undertaken to learn bionomics and gowt plant resistance of the seedcorn maggot, Delia platura(Meigen), under controlled(24$\pm$$2^{\circ}C$, RH70$\pm$5%, and LD 16:8h)and field conditions. The preoviposition period for the flies was 9 days. The females survived for an average of 50(3-77) and the males for 24(1-59) days. A greater proportion of flies emerged between 6:00 A.M. and 9:00 A.M., soon after the sun rise. After the over-wintering, adults started to emerge in mid-April from pupae located near the soil surface, and peaked in late April by others located deeper. The sex ratio was about 1:1 with total samples of 1,609 females and 1,641 males. Weight of pupae reared from onion was heavier than those from other diets in the laboratory, however its size was samller than that of natural flies. Considerably more eggs were laid near pea seeds than other hosts tested. Among beans, Bapmitkong with blue seed-coat and a cowpea bean strain were preferred for oviposition. 'Namcheon` cultivar was found to be susceptible to attack by the larvae in the laboratory.

This study was conducted to investigate a morphological trait in 294 rice accessions including Korean breeding lines. We also carried out a genome-wide association study (GWAS) to detect significant single nucleotide polymorphism markers and candidate genes affecting major agronomic traits. A Manhattan plot analysis of GWAS using morphological traits showed that phenotypic and statistical significance was associated with a chromosome in each group. The significance of SNPs that were detected in this study was investigated by comparing them with those found previously studied QTL regions related to agronomic traits. As a result, SNP (S8-19815442), which is significant with regard to leaf angle, was located in the known QTL regions. To observe gene mutations related to leaf angle in a candidate gene, Os08g31950, its sequences were compared with sequences in previously selected rice varieties. In Os08g31950, a single nucleotide mutation occurred in one region. To compare relative RNA expression levels of candidate gene Os08g31950, obtained from GWAS analysis of 294 rice accessions and related to lateral leaf angle, we investigated relative levels by selecting 10 erect leaf angle varieties and 10 horizontal leaf angle varieties and examining real-time PCR. In Os08g31950, a high level of expression and various expression patterns were observed in all tissues. Also, Os08g31950 showed higher expression levels in the erect leaf angle variety group and higher expression rates in the leaf than in the root. The candidate gene detected through GWAS would be useful in developing new rice varieties with improved yield potential through future molecular breeding.

Symptoms of summer patch were observed on Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.) cv. "Midnight II" from mid-June in 2015 in Seoul, Korea. The symptoms appeared as leaf blight, root rot, and frog-eye patch, which are typical of summer patch. To identify the causal agent of these symptoms, a pathogen was isolated from diseased leaves and roots, and the cultural, morphological, and phylogenetic characteristics were analyzed. The isolate reached 50-60 mm on potato dextrose agar (PDA) after 10 days as a white-grey mycelium with septa, and became olive-green or brown from the center. Phialide-like structures were observed at the ends of hyphae, and conidia were rarely observed. A phylogenetic analysis was conducted based on large subunit (LSU) and RNA polymerase II large subunit (RPB1) sequences. According to this analysis, the isolated pathogen was confirmed to be Magnaporthiopsis poae. In a pathogenicity test, summer patch symptoms were observed at 20 days after inoculation using the same grass cultivar. This is the first report of summer patch disease caused by M. poae on cool season grass in Korea.

In order to investigate some chemical components, higher alcohols, ethyl acetate and volatile compounds of Vitis vinifera red wines were analyzed by HPLC, GC and GC-MS. During the process of ripening for the content of wine and acids were much changed, particurally the content of tartaric acid was decreased largely. Content of total phenolics and phenol flavonoid in wines which manufactured with Malbec varieties as 470mg/L and 245mg/L respectively, was higher than those in Cabernet sauvignon (310mg/L, 135mg/L) and Cabernet franc (425mg/L, 125mg/L) wines, and nonflavonoid was higher in Cabernet franc wine(300mg/L) than in others. Content of acetaldehyde was higher in Malbec wine (33mg/L) than in Cabernet sauvignon (26mg/L) and Cabernet franc (28mg/L) wines. Amount of methyl alcohol, propanol and isoamyl alcohol were higher in Cabernet sauvignon wine than in others, and isobutanol was more in Malbec wine(64mg/L), ethyl acetate was more in Cabernet franc wine as 35mg/L than in Malbec(28mg/L) and in Cabernet sauvignon (23mg/L) wines. Volatile compounds were isolated about 87~91 varieties from concentrates of three red wines by GC, and thirty-five compounds including terpine-4-ol were identified by GC-MS.

This study was carried out to identify of C3G (cyanidin-3-glucoside) from mulberry fruits and quantify with different varieties. C3G of mulberry fruits was extracted with 1％ HCl-MeOH and purified with open column (5${\times}$90cm) which filled with Amberlite IRC-50 ion exchange resin. The $\lambda$max ranges of the purified C3G on UV/vis spectrum were 516nm and 280nm. Also, molecular weight of C3G from mulberry fruits by LC-Mass was determined as 449. From above results, we concluded that anthocyanin pigment of mulberry fruits was C3G only. The cyanidin-3-glucoside (C3G) was separated and quantified by High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) system using a Nova-Pack C$\_$18/ column. Mean content of the 35 tested accessions was 0.89％. Also fruity characteristics as well as C3G content to select the desirable mulberry varieties for the production of fruit were researched and analyzed. We selected three suitable varieties such as 'Susungppong', 'Kangsun', and 'Jeolgokchosaeng(Chungpuk)'.

Root-knot symptoms were found on a commercial tomato cultivar carrying Mi, a resistance gene to root-knot nematodes including Meloidogyne incognita, M. arenaria, and M. javanica in 2012 at Buyeo, Chungnam Province in Korea. The isolate was identified as M. incognita based on molecular analyses using two species-specific primer sets. Pathogenicity of the isolate on one susceptible and three resistant tomato cultivars to the root-knot nematodes was tested. The nematode isolate showed strong pathogenicity on all the tested cultivars at all tested incubation temperatures. In addition, resistance degree of 33 commercial tomato cultivars, 8 susceptible and 25 resistant cultivars to root-knot nematodes, was also tested. Plants were determined as resistant when they suppressed the nematode reproduction. All the cultivars demonstrated strong susceptibility to the nematode regardless of resistance of the tomato cultivars. To our knowledge, this is the first report on the occurrence of Mi infecting M. incognita isolate in Korea. On the other hand, to construct an efficient screening method for selecting resistant breeding source to the nematode isolate, root-knot development of M. incognita on four tomato cultivars according to several conditions such as inoculum concentration, plant growth stage, and incubation period after transplant was investigated. Reproduction of the nematode on all the tested cultivars according to inoculum concentration increased in a dose-dependent manner. Except for inoculum concentration, there was no significant difference in reproduction level of the cultivars according to the other tested conditions. On the basis of the results, we suggest an efficient screening method for new resistant tomato to the nematode isolate.

As a foundational study for notifing excellence of persimmon leaves tea, the chemical component and antioxidant activity were investigated in persimmon leaves from Dungsi, Gabjubaekmok, Weulhasi and Cheongdobansi and green tea leaves. Total sugar contents in all persimmon leaves more higher than that of green tea leaves, and the highest free sugar contained in persimmon and green tea leaves was sucrose. Free sugars present in persimmon and green tea leaves were composed of sucrose, glucose, fructose, maltose and xylose. Sucrose and fructose took more than 70% of total sugar contents. 31∼32 kinds of amino acid were detected in persimmon leaves and 35 kinds in green tea leaves. And total amino acids contained in persimmon leaves were Dungsi, Gabjubaekmok, Weulhasi and Cheongdobansi, respectively 60.40 nmol/${\mu}$L, 53.21 nmol/${\mu}$L, 52.29 nmol/${\mu}$L and 47.58 nmol/${\mu}$L. Total amino acid contents in green tea leaves was the most abundant of all as 114.72 nmol/${\mu}$L. The contents of vitamin C in persimmon and green tea leaves were in the range of 0.015∼0.089% and 0.01%, respectively. Vitamin C was significant higher content in the persimmon leaves than in green tea leaves. Caffeine was not detected in all persimmon leaves, but the caffeine content of green tea leaves was 6.63 mg/l00 g. The content of catechin was showed in the orders of Cheongdobansi, Gabjubaekmok, Weulhasi, Dungsi and green tea leaves; 0.35%, 0.34%, 0.24%, 0.18% and 0.07%, respectively. The contents of gallic acid in Dungsi and Gabjubaekmok were 0.32% and 0.20%. That of green tea was 1.41%, it was the highest content in all samples. The content of calcium in Chengdobansi was most abundant in all samples as 3516.14 ppm, it was 4∼5 times as that of green tea leaves. Flavor component pattern among persimmon leaves was similar, but that of green tea leaves was different. The IC50(${\mu}$g) value of Dungsi, Weulhasi, Gabjubaekmok, Cheongdobansi and green tea were 64.5, 42.0, 47.0, 64.0 and 19.0 respectively.
