The test possibility of L-ascorbic acid(AsA) assay by ascorbate oxidase(A.O) solution obtained from cucumber was estimated. The results obtained were summarized as follow. The difference of absorbance before and after oxidation of AsA by A.O solution was proportional to the AsA concentration. Iso- AsA compared to same concentration of AsA was 97% response. Therefore, the 0 specificity on Iso- AsA a was deficient. On the sucrose, glucose, fructose were coexisted from 5 times, 500 times of AsA concentration, none of them were affected by any level of AsA concentration. In the case of EDTA, it was not nearly affected that EDTA was coexisted 50 times of AsA concentration, but EDTA Inhibited considerably from 500 times of AsA concentration. The effect of citric acid on the AsA concentration was not in the same level of AsA, however, it was slightly inhibited from 5 times, 50 times of AsA concentration and 500 times of AsA inhibited remarkably As known L-AsA was catalycally autooxidated by Cu2+ and Fe2+. They were not nearly affected In the above 0.01M level on the Ash assay. However, Fe3+ ion was neither nearly affected in the 0.001M level nor In the above 0.01M level on the AsA assay.

The objectives of this study were to examine the effect of storage time, temperature, pH, and NaCl concentration on hydroperoxide lyase and lipoxygenase activities, and to establish important informations to the production of typical cucumber flavor. Conditions affecting lipoxygenase and hydroperoxide lyase would be important for cucumber flavor production. Maximum activity was observed at pH 5.0 for hydroperoxide lyase and pH 5.5 for lipoxygenase. Both enzymes were relatively stable at $40\;to\;50^{\circ}C$ for 6days storage time. Maximum activity of both enzymes was observed with 0.2 M NaCl at pH 5.0. Activities were stimulated with concentrations of NaCl from 0.05 to 0.2 M. Hydroperoxide lyase and lipoxygenase activities were decreased at concentration of NaCl greater than 0.2 M.

To develop herbicide-resistant cucumber plants (Cucumis sativus L. cv Green Angle) embryogenic suspension cultures were co-cultured with Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain LBA4404 carrying a disarmed binary vector pGA-bar. The T-DNA region of this binary vector contains the nopalin synthase/neomycin phosphotransferase Ⅱ (npt Ⅱ) chimeric gene for kanamycin resistance and the cauliflower 35S/phosphinothricin acetyltransferase (bar) chimeric gene for phosphinothricin (PPT) resistance, After co-cultivation for 48 h, embryogenic calli were placed on maturation media containing 20 mg/L PPT. Approximately 200 putatively transgenic plantlets were obtained in hormone free media containing 40 mg/L PPT. Northern blot hybridization analysis confirmed the expression of the bar gene that was integrated into the genome of five transgenic plants. Transgenic cucumber plants were grown to maturity. Mature plants in soil showed tolerance to the commercial herbicide (Basta) of PPT at the manufacturer's suggested level (3 mL/L).

A strain of Cucumber mosaic virus(CMV) was isolated newly from sweet pepper(Capsicum annuum var. angulosum) showing necrosis with large necrotic spots on fruits and vein banding with malformation on leaf at Cheongdo area in Gyeongsangbukdo. The new strain was designated as a CMV-NP and the shape of virus particles was isometric of 26 nm in diameter from the sweet pepper fruit by Dip method. The strain of CMV-NP was identified genetically by VC/RT-PCR. CMV-NP could infect systemically on the 9 indicator plants including Cucumis sativus, but it could infect locally on Chenopodim amaranticolor and C. quinoa. CMV-NP induced the specific symptoms of necrotic rings on the inoculated and the upper leaves of N. rustica and Tetragonia expansa. On Cucumis sativus, the large chlorotic ring and vein chlorosis were produced on the upper leaves. CMV-NP had no virulence on Datura stramonium.

Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) plants were regenerated through organogenesis and somatic embryogenesis in cotyledon and hypocotyl cultures. The shoots were efficiently formed on the basal region of cotyledons cultured on MS medium containing 1.0㎎/L zeatin and 0.1㎎/L IAA in all cultivars used. Embryogenic calli were formed on hypocotyl segments cultured on MS medium containing 1.0㎎/L 2,4-D in cv. group 'Nakhab' and maintained by consecutive subculture on the same medium every 2-3 weeks without loss of embryogenic ability. Upon transfer to MS basal medium, high frequency somatic embryogenesis was achieved easily from embryogenic callus. Regenerated plantlets through organogenesis and somatic embryogenesis were transplanted to pots and gradually acclimatized to greenhouse condition where they subsequently produced fruits.

A pot experiment was carried out to investigate the effect of boron on the growth, symptom, yield, and content of boron in Perilla(Perilla frutescens var. japonica HARA), Melon(Cucumis melo L.) and Cucumber(Cucumis sativus L.). The results obtained are as follows. Perilla. melon and cucumber uptake a lot of boron from the soil, and toxic effects of boron result in leaf tip yellowing by progressive necrosis. Yield of perilla, melon and cucumber are decreased at the $3{\sim}5mg\;kg^{-1}$, $5{\sim}10mg\;kg^{-1}$ of boron applicated in soil, respectively. Boron content in the leaf is the highest among various parts plant, and the tip and margin of the leaf contained more boron than central part of the leaf. Boron applicated was moved and accumulated to the plant and soil.

Cucurbits including pumpkin (Cucurbita pepo), gourd (Lagenariaa siceraria), cucumber (Cucumis sativus), melon(Cucumis melo) and watermelon(Cucurbita anguria) were diseased with mosaic symptoms. The causal virus was identified as watermelon mosaic virus(WMV). The WMV was transmitted by Myzus persicae Sulzer, and no seed borne virus was found. The virus caused large local lesions on the inoculated leaves of the Chenopodium amaranticolor and mosaic symptom on the upper leaves of Cucumis melo, Cucumis sativus, Lagenaria siceraria, Cucurbita anguria and Cucurbita pepo. There were no symptoms on the inoculated leaves of the Nicotiana tabacum var. Bright yellow, Nicotiana glutinosa, Vigna unguiculata. Petunia hybrida and Datura stramonium. Thermal inactivation point was $55\~65^{\circ}C$, dilution end point was $10^{-4}\;10^{-5}$ and longevity in vitro of the virus was $7\~8$ days. The virus showed positive reaction against watermelon mosaic virus antiserum in microprecipitin tests. The virus particles were flexuous rods in size of 750 nm.
