Disease occurrence and development of gray blight of tea (Camellia sinensis) were investigated. Higher incidences and more severe damage by gray blight were found in Japanese tea variety Yabukita than the Korean local variety. In Yabukita, Pestalotiopsis longiseta was more frequently observed on the diseased leaves than P. theae but vice versa in the Korean local variety. This indicates that there was the varietal difference in the distribution of fungal species of gray blight pathogens. Both varieties were most severely damaged during the third harvest period with weather conditions of high temperature and humidity favorable to the disease. Presence of the tea brown blight fungus Glomerella cingulata on the margin of gray blight lesion at the late stahe suggested that the pathogenic fungi of tea gray blight were replaced by the brown blight fungus during the disease development.

A fungus associated with gray blight on tea plant (Camellia sinensis) was identifed as Pestalotiopsis theae based on the mycological characteristics. Mycelial growth on potato dextrose agar and size and shape of conidia of P. theae were similar to those of P. longiseta, but P. theae was different from P. longiseta in the color of three median cells and the number of apical appendages. Artificial inoculation of conidial suspension or mycelial mats on the wounded leaves and shoots of healthy plants induced the same disease, respectively. The Korean native variety was relatively. The Korean native variety was relatively more resistat to P. theae than a Japanese variety‘Yabukita’which has bee recently introduced and planted in large areas of southern parts of Korea. Here, we report the report the first record of gary blight caused by P. theae on tea plant in Korea.

차나무의 분자학적 유연관계 및 유전적 다양성을 알아보기 위하여 한국에서 자생하는 차나무 집단 21개 지역 차나무에 대하여 DFR 유전자 부위를 이용하여 PCR-RFLP분석을 하였다. DFR 4+5 primer 쌍을 이용하여 증폭결과 DFR유전자의 크기는 약 1.4kb에서 PCR산물을 획득하였다. PCR산물에 제한효소 Hpa II 및 Mse I를 이용하여 RFLP분석 결과 차나무 집단간 또는 집단내 차나무간의 유전적 다양성을 보였다. Hpa II 제한효소를 이용한 RFLP 밴드패턴은 3가지 형태로 구분되었으며, 같은 차나무 집단내에서도 유전적 다양성이 나타났다. Mse I 제한효소를 이용한 밴드패턴은 6가지의 형태로 다양성을 보였으며, 웅포집단 차나무의 경우 집단 내 다양성이 2가지 형태로 나타나 같은 집단내에서의 유전적 변이는 적은 것으로 보인다. 본 연구에서 사용한 2가지의 제한효소의 결과 차나무의 집단간 또는 같은 집단내의 차나무간에서 유전적 다양성을 확인할 수 있었다.

Cigarette smoke causes atypical structure of pulmonary and oxidative damage. Therefore, we carried out to determine if exposure to cigarette smoke alters pulmonary structure and anti-oxidant related enzyme in a animal model, when natural product extracts using by Nebulizer. The rat were divided into four groups: $H_2O-treated$ (Control), natural product (Camellia sinensis) extracts-treated (CS), natural product extracts-treated with cigarette smoke-exposed (CS+SM) and cigarette smoke-expose (SM). All groups are similar to Control group in weight, but SM group is lower than the other groups. Microscopic image of the pulmonary structure in SM group showed deleterious alterations in the morphology, but the other groups are maintained in normal structure. In anti-oxidant related enzymes, SOD (superoxide dismutase) and catalase, SM group represents the lowest enzyme activity among all groups. But G6PD (glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase) and LPO (lipid peroxidation) is SM group represents the highest enzyme activity among all groups. These result indicate that the natural product extracts is an efficient tissue protective substance against smoke-induced lung injury.

차나무 카테킨류의 생산성을 높이기 위하여 차나무 잎의 캘러스 배양시 thiamine-HCl과PVP의 효과를 조사하였다. 캘러스의 생장은 20 mg/L thiamine-HCl이 포함된 캘러스증식배지(0.2 mg/L 2,4-D와 1.0 mg/L TDZ가 첨가된 MS 배지)에서 가장 왕성하여 대조구에 비해 1.7배의 생장을 보였다. 배양된 캘러스의 카페인 함량은 신초에 비해 $10\%$이하로 낮아졌고 총 카테킨류 함량은 40 mg/L thiamine-HCl에서 가장 높아 신초의 1.6배까지 증가하였다. 특히 신초에서는 검출되지 않았던 (-)-epicatechin(EC)이 thiamine-HCl 또는 PVP를 처리하여 배양하였을 경우 모든 처리에서 검출되었으며, (-)-epicatechingallate(ECG)는 신초에서 보다 4.8배나 높은 함량을 나타내었다. 캘러스 생장과 고효율의 카테킨 생산을 고려했을 때 30 mg/L thiamine-HCl이 포함된 배지가 최적의 배양조건으로 판단된다.

The factors affecting chemical composition of green tea (Camellia sinensis L.) during extraction process were temperatures and times. The optimum extraction conditions were measured in relation to the changes of chemical compositions from water extracts of green tea (Camellia sinensis L.) under different extraction temperatures (50, 70, 9$0^{\circ}C$) and extraction times (1, 3, 5 minute). The change of color intensity during browning reaction, flavonoid components, contents of total phenols and hydrogen donating activity (reducing activity for $\alpha$, $\alpha$'-diphenyl-$\beta$ -picryhydrazyl) of water extracts form green tea increased as extraction temperatures increased from 50 to 9$0^{\circ}C$ and extraction times prolonged from 1 to 5 min. The contents of important free sugars such as sucrose and glucose slightly increased as the extraction time was prolonged, while little difference in the content of fructose with the prolonged extraction time. Catechins contents extracted from the commercial steamed green tea were increased at higher temperature and longer extraction time. Epigallocatechin (EGC) extracted from 9$0^{\circ}C$ (extraction time 5 min). presented 99.9 mg/g in highest composition of catechin followed by epigallocatechin gallate (EGCg), epicatechin (EC), epicatechin gallate (ECg). The content of vitamin C extracted from green tea was increased about 2 times as the extraction temperature increased from 50 to 9$0^{\circ}C$ and as the extraction time increased from 1 to 5 min. with exception at 9$0^{\circ}C$(extraction time:5 min) which showed less vitamin C content than 7$0^{\circ}C$(extraction time : 3 min) probably due to possible destruction of vitamin C by high temperature.

홍차를 우려내고 남은 부산물인 홍차박을 30% 에탄올로 추출하여 수율, 폴리페놀 함량 및 항산화 활성을 확인하였다. 홍차박의 추출 수율은 $22.4{\pm}1.18%$이었고, 폴리페놀은 추출물에 $23.2{\pm}1.02{\mu}g\;GAE/mg$ 들어있었다. 홍차박 추출물은 양이온라디칼, 유리라디칼 및 아질산염을 농도에 비례하여 소거하였고, 환원력과 지질과산화 억제활성도 농도의존적으로 증가하였다. 홍차박 추출물의 ABTS 양이온라디칼, DPPH 유리라디칼 및 아질산염 소거에 대한 $IC_{50}$값은 각각 141.8, 108.1 및 $397.2{\mu}g/m$이었고, 환원력에 대한 $IC_{50}$값은 $97.8{\mu}g/mL$로 나타났다. 또한 홍차박 추출물은 linoleic acid의 과산화를 효과적으로 억제하였다. 결론적으로 홍차박 추출물은 우수한 항산화 활성을 보유하고 있어 생리활성 소재로의 활용 가능성을 보여주었다.

Tea plant (Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze) has been cultivated widely in many developing Asian, African, and South American countries, where it is the most widely consumed beverage in the world next to water. It has critical importance to understand the genetic diversity and population sturcutre for effective collection, conservation, and utilization of tea germplasm. In this study, 410 tea accessions collected from South Korea were analyzed using 21 SSR markers. Among 410 tea accessions, 85.4% (310 accessions) accessions were collected from Jeollanam-do. A total of 286 alleles were observed, and the genetic diversity and evenness were estimated to be averagely 0.79 and 0.61, respectively, across all the tested samples. Using discriminant analysis of principal components, the four clusters were detected in 410 tea accessions. Among them, cluster 1 showed higher frequency of rare alleles (less than 1%) than other clusters. Using calculation of the index of association and rbaD value, each cluster showed a clonal mode of reproduction. The result of AMOVA showed that most of the variation observed was within populations (99%) rather than among populations (1%). Our results might contribute to provide data about genetic diversity for the conservation of tea germplasm and for future breeding programs.
