Morphological and molecular information of two marine algae collected from Korea is given. One belonging to a green alga, is characterized by small size up to 4 cm high, much branched thalli on all sides, slender and linear branchlets which is constricted near base, axes without prominent branch scars, chloroplasts with a prominent central pyrenoid. The other, as a brown alga, is distinct from other Korean species in having cylindrical elevated projections at all parts of thallus axis, leaves with slightly serrulate margin together with distinct midrib bearing spines and absence to rarely occurred vesicles. In phylogenetic tree based on rbcL sequences, these two species are nested in the same clade with Bryopsis triploramosa and Sargassum polyporum, respectively. In this study, these two species are newly recorded in the Korean marine algal flora based on the morphological and molecular data.

결과지는 뿌리에서 흡수한 수분 및 무기성분과 엽에서 만들어진 동화산물의 이동통로 역할을 하여 과실 품질에 영향을 준다. 본 연구는 하이부시 블루베리 ‘Bluecrop’의 결과지 세력과 신초생장 및 과실 특성과의 관계를 구명코자 수행되었다. 결과지 세력은 결과모지와 결과지 특성을 기준으로 하여, 결과모지의 굵기가 6 ㎜ 미만이고 결과지 길이가 10 ㎝ 미만을 A, 결과모지의 굵기가 6 ㎜ 미만이고 결과지 길이가 10 ㎝ 이상을 B, 결과모지의 굵기가 6 ㎜ 이상이고 결과지 길이가 10 ㎝ 미만을 C, 그리고 결과모지의 굵기가 6 ㎜ 이상이고 결과지 길이가 10 ㎝ 이상을 D로 구분하였다. D의 신초는 길이 6.5 ㎝, 굵기 1.70 ㎜, 신초당 엽수 5.8 개로 다른 세력의 가지에서 자란 신초보다 길고 굵었으며 신초당 엽수는 많았다. D의 엽면적은 13.5 ㎠로 다른 가지보다 넓었다. 첫 수확기는 결과모지가 굵고 결과지가 길었던 가지에서 1주일 빨랐다. 14 ㎜ 이상의 대과의 비율은 결과지 길이가 길었던 B와 D에서 각각 41.7%와 46.8%로 높았다. 14 ㎜ 미만의 소과의 평균 가용성 고형물은 결과지 세력에 따른 차이가 없었으나, 14 ㎜ 이상의 대과의 평균 가용성 고형물은 결과지 길이가 길었던 B와 D에서 각각 16.2 °Bx, 15.6 °Bx로 높았다. 결과지 및 결과모지와 결과지의 교차효과에서 유의적인 차이가 인정되었다. 14 ㎜ 미만인 과실의 평균 가용성 고형물은 14.5 °Bx로 결과지 세력에 따른 유의적 차이가 없었다. 결과모지가 대과 생산비율에 미치는 영향이 없으므로, 길이 10 ㎝ 이상의 결과지를 활용하여 착과시키는 것이 좋을 것으로 판단된다.

A variety of surgical approach for ankle and tibiotalocalcaneal arthrodesis has been described. We used a transfibular approach between the sural nerve and lateral branch of the superficial peroneal nerve. This permits excellent visualization of the ankle and subtalar joint so that the fusion can readily be achieved under the direct visualization. Eight ankle fusions and four tibiotalocalcaneal fusions were carried out through a transfibular approach and reviewed. The resected fibula was utilized for bone graft. The follow up period was from 12 to 22 months. Ages of the patients ranged from 27 to 58 years. The postoperative regimen was six weeks nonweight bearing in a short leg cast, followed by weight bearing in a short leg cast until union occurred. All cases were fused except one who had preoperative pyogenic arthritis of the ankle and hindfoot. The results were as follows; 1. The chance of incisional neuroma is lessened through incision between the sural nerve and superficial peroneal nerve. 2. The possibility of a skin slough is reduced by using full thickness skin flaps. 3. Excellent visualization of the ankle and subtalar joint is easily achieved. So, we believed that the transfibular approach for ankle and tibiotalocalcaneal arthrodesis is the excellent surgical approach.

If an alternative path would not be considered for redistribution of loads, local failure in structures will be followed by a progressive collapse. When a vertical load-bearing element of a steel structure fails, the beams connected to it will lose their support. Accordingly, an increase in span's length adds to the internal forces in beams. The mentioned increasing load in beams leads to amplifying the moments there, and likewise in their corresponding connections. Since it is not possible to reinforce all the elements of the structure against this phenomenon, it seems rational to use other technics like specified strengthened connections. In this study, a novel connection is suggested to handle the stated phenomenon which is introduced as a passive connection. This connection enables the structure to tolerate the added loads after failing of the vertical element. To that end, two experimental models were constructed and thereafter tested in half-scale, one-story, double-bay, and bolted connections in three-dimensional spaces. This experimental study has been conducted to compare the ductility and strength of a frame that has ordinary rigid connections with a frame containing a novel passive connection. At last, parametric studies have been implemented to optimize the dimensions of the passive connection. Results show that the load-bearing capacity of the frame increased up to 75 percent. Also, a significant decrease in the displacement of the node wherein the column is removed was observed compared to the ordinary moment resisting frame with the same loads.

During an earthquake, soils filter and send out the shaking to the building and simultaneously it has the role of bearing the building vibrations and transmitting them back to the ground. In other words, the ground and the building interact with each other. Hence, soil-structure interaction (SSI) is a key parameter that affects the performance of buildings during the earthquakes and is worth to be taken into consideration. Columns are one of the most crucial elements in RC buildings that play an important role in stability of the building and must be able to dissipate energy under seismic loads. Recent earthquakes showed that formation of plastic hinges in columns is still possible as a result of strong ground motion, despite the application of strong column-weak beam concept, as recommended by various design codes. Energy is dissipated through the plastic deformation of specific zones at the end of a member without affecting the rest of the structure. The formation of a plastic hinge in an RC column in regions that experience inelastic actions depends on the column details as well as soil-structure interaction (SSI). In this paper, 854 different scenarios have been analyzed by inelastic time-history analyses to predict the nonlinear behavior of RC columns considering soil-structure interaction (SSI). The effects of axial load, height over depth ratio, main period of soil and structure as well as different characteristics of earthquakes, are evaluated analytically by finite element methods and the results are compared with corresponding experimental data. Findings from this study provide a simple expression to estimate plastic hinge length of RC columns including soil-structure interaction.

In August 2001, pod rot of cowpea caused by Choanephora cucurbitarum was found in the experimental fields of the Gyeongsangnam-do Agricultural Research and Extension Services, Korea. Initial symptoms of the disease were the appearance of water-soaked, dark-green lesions and followed by rapid rotting of the infected tissues. As the disease progressed, whitish mycelia and monosporous sporangiophore with monosporous sporangiola were produced on the lesions. The fungus produced white to pale yellowish brown mycelia with scattered monosporous sporangiophore and monosporous sporangia containing sporangiospores on potato dextrose agar (PDA). Monosporous sporangiophore was long, slender and branched at the apex, with each branch bearing a sporangiospore. Sporangium was subglobose in shape and 42.6-112.6 ㎛ in size. Monosporous sporangiola were elliptic, fusiform or ovoid, brown in color, and 9.8-23.4$\times$7.2-12.8 ㎛ in size. Sporangiospores were elliptic, fusiform or ovoid in shape, dark brown or brown in color, 12.9-24.6$\times$8.6-15.4 ㎛ in size, and had three or more appendages. Zygospores were black and 43.6-72.4 ㎛ in size. The fungus grew on PDA at 15-40$\^{C}$, and optimum temperature was 30$\^{C}$. This is the first report on pod rot of cowpea caused by C. cucurbitarum in Korea.

Purpose - Considering corporate companies that are continually growing and bearing in mind the theory of agency, how confident can stakeholders be about their benefits in relation to managers' decisions? Previous research has indicated that the type of corporate governance can have an effective impact on companies' performance. The current study aims to investigate the impact of ownership structure on listed companies on the Tehran Stock Exchange. Research Design, Data, and Methodology - Through use of the correlation coefficient, the results indicate a positive correlation among the percentage of common stock held by board members, the percentage of non-executive board members, and separation of the positions of chairperson of the board of directors and managing director. Results - Based on the return on assets index, only the correlation between the proportion of ownership of the managing director and financial investment company ownership is significant. Conclusion -Managers can potentially make decisions that benefit themselves but are detrimental to shareholders' interests. Corporate governance is a factor that can mitigate agency costs. Corporate governance comprises the laws, regulations, structures, processes, cultures, and systems that lead to the achievement of objectives such as accountability, transparency, justice, and stakeholders' rights.

Rock bridges in rock masses would increase the bearing capacity of Non-persistent discontinuities. In this paper the effect of ratio of rock bridge surface to joint surface, rock bridge shape and normal load on failure behaviour of intermittent rock joint were investigated. A total of 42 various models with dimensions of $15cm{\times}15cm{\times}15cm$ of plaster specimens were fabricated simulating the open joints possessing rock bridge. The introduced rock bridges have various continuities in shear surface. The area of the rock bridge was $45cm^2$ and $90cm^2$ out of the total fixed area of $225cm^2$ respectively. The fabricated specimens were subjected to shear tests under normal loads of 0.5 MPa, 2 MPa and 4 MPa in order to investigate the shear mechanism of rock bridge. The results indicated that the failure pattern and the failure mechanism were affected by two parameters; i.e., the ratio of joint surface to rock bridge surface and normal load. So that increasing in joint area in front of the rock bridge changes the shear failure mode to tensile failure mode. Also the tensile failure change to shear failure by increasing the normal load.

In the current paper, the various responses of concrete rectangular liquid storage containers under seismic load, each isolated by a lead-rubber bearing subjected to bi-directional earthquake forces are investigated. A parametric study is conducted to investigate the effects of isolation period, yield strength of the isolator and the effects of soil-foundation interaction for non-isolated and base-isolated tanks located on different soil types. In most cases, the value of base shear, base moment, wall displacement and hydrodynamic pressure is reduced by the effect of the isolators whose effective frequency is within the appropriate range. The sloshing displacement is amplified due to seismic isolation of the tanks for both tall and shallow tank configurations. Also, it is found that the seismic isolation technique is more efficient for the more flexible tank. Studying various soil types indicates that, unlike the responses of non-isolated tanks which change drastically for different soil types, the responses of base-isolated structures are less affected. Finally, it is observed that the variation in structural responses is not only related to the superstructure configuration and bearings properties but also depends on the earthquake specifications.
