시설 원예작물의 겨울철 온도환경 관리에 대한 연구는 난방비 절약을 위한 저온관리 한계온도 구명(Tanaka 등, 1986), 또는 근권부 온도 조절에 의한 작물의 생산성 증진 연구와 같은 실용적 측면의 연구가 많이 수행된 바 있다(Fujie와 Saidou, 1983). 그러나 시설의 온풍기 고장 또는 정전 등으로 작물이 생육한계 온도이하의 저온상태에서 장시간 경과 되었을 때 나타나는 여러가지의 생리적인 장해나 피해에 대한 연구는 매우 적은 실정이다(Reyes와 Jennings, 1994). (중략)

Effect of arsenite, arsenate and dimethylarsinic acid (DMA) on the growth of seedling plants were investigated in order to compare the toxicity of arsenic species in soil environments. Test plants were mung bean (Phaseolus radiatus), wheat (Triticum aestivum), barely (Hordeum vulgare), cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.). Seedling growth in As-contaminated soil were significantly reduced in all test species. Arsenite was more toxic than arsenate and DMA. Among the test plants, mung bean was most sensitive to arsenic, followed by cucumber, wheat, and barely.

1970년대에 덴마크에서 원예용 배지로 암면을 사용한 이래 현재 암면은 채소 및 화훼류 양액재배에 있어서 가장 중요한 배지의 하나로 여겨지고 있다(Smith. 1996). 그러나, 이는 주로 판상암면을 의미하는 것으로 이와는 다른 형태인 입상암면은 고려되고 있지 않다. 입상암면은 판상암면과는 달리 입자형태를 하고 있기 때문에 판상암면보다 더 많은 공극을 확보할 수 있으며, 또한 입자내부에는 기존의판상암면과 같은 보습성을 지니고 있기 때문에 새로운 원예용 배지로서 대두되고 있다(Smith. 1996). (중략)

We investigated expression of cucumber senescence-associated genes (SAGs) from developing cotyledons and flower petals. Several cucumber SAGs have been reported in earlier reports. This is an extension of the previous findings. Semi-quantitative RT-PCR revealed that most of the cucumber SAG transcripts were consistently produced until the organ senescence. These results imply that many cucumber senescence-related genes are still active during the final development stage, playing some executive biological roles, possibly in remobilization of nutrients to the other parts of tissues or organs. These results were used to search for possible functions of senescence-related genes during organ development.

시설재배시 지면피복재의 멀칭 효과로는 잡초발생 억제, 토양수분 보존, 지온상승 등이 있는데 이러한 효과를 이용해 토양수분유지는 물론 근권환경을 변화시켜 작물의 생육을 향상시키고 과실의 수량 및 품질향상을 증대시키기 위한 많은 연구가 이루어지고 있다(Bhella 1988 : Lament 1993 : Park et al,. t991). 특히, 오이는 과채류 중에서 재배기간이 비교적 짧은 작물에 속할 뿐만 아니라 노화 속도가 타 작물에 비해 빠른 문제점을 갖고 있다. (중략)

Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) seedlings were irradiated or not irradiated with UV-B for several days in environment controled growth chambers. The first leaves irradiated with UV-B were retarded in growth but simultaneously acquired a remarkably high tolerence to oxidative stress, as induced by SA treatment, compared with the non irradiated leaves. Observed within 1 d after the start of UV-B and was maintained during the 5 d period of UV-B treatment. There were low rates of growth and photosynthesis in cucumber plants when treated with SA, suggesting alterations in anatomy and ultrastructure organisation of chloroplasts. Exogenous application of SA diminished chloroplast photosynthetic activity.

In order to examine the effects of Korean cucurbitaceous plants on sonic hedgehog pathway and growth of cancer cells with over-activated hedgehog pathway, we measured the sonic hedgehog conditioned medium (shh-CM) induced alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and cell viability of pancreatic cancer cell lines by treatment of cucurbitaceous plants. Among the tested cucurbitaceous plants, Actinostemma lobatum Maxim, Cucumis sativus L., Momordica charantia L., Schizopepon bryoniaefolius Maxim and Trichosanthes kirilowii Max, var. japonica Kitam showed the potent inhibitory effects (> 50 % at $20{\mu}g/mL$) on shh-CM induced ALP activity. We also evaluated the cell viability of pancreatic cancer cells treated with the cucurbitaceous plants. The tested cucurbitaceous plants showed the very weak effects on cancer cell proliferation but, T. kirilowii Max, var. japonica Kitam presented the inhibitory effect of 72.7 % on the proliferation of pancreatic cancer cells at $20{\mu}g/mL$. Taken together, we screened the effects of Korean cucurbitaceous plants on shh-CM induced ALP activity and cell viability of pancreatic cancers to search for the modulators of the hedgehog pathway leading to the inhibition of cancer cell proliferation. T. kirilowii Max, var. japonica Kitam, among the tested cucurbitaceous plants, showed the inhibitory effects on the shh-CM induced ALP activity and the proliferation of pancreatic cancer cells.

This study was conducted to determine the daily application rate and amount of N and K with fertigation during different growth stages in semi-forcing culture of cucumber plants (Cucumis sativus L. cv. Eunseongbaekdadagi). The diagnostic criteria for N and K also investigated based on petiole sap analysis. The dry weight increased slowly until 30 days after transplanting. The highest dry weights were observed at 60 days after planting, then it decreased. As the plant grew, the contents of N and K in the petiole sap and fruit of cucumber decreased. The daily uptake of N and K were highly correlated with the growing days. The $NO_3$ concentrations in petiole sap were in the range from 3,500 to 4,500 mgㆍ$L^{-1}$ in the early growth stage, but those were in the range from 2,000 to 3,000 mgㆍ$L^{-1}$ after then. However, K concentration in petiole sap were in the rang from 5,000 to 7,000 mgㆍ$L^{-1}$ The fluctuation in petiole sap concentration of K was severe in the monthly fertigation and moderate in the daily fertigation. The fertigation by petiole sap diagnosis forced EC of soil to be low and yield to increase compared to the control.

This study was performed to develop a more rapid and simple nutrient diagnosis method of plants than the conventional leaf analysis method. Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L. cv. jangil banbaek) was planted in the mixed media produced by mixing perlite and rock wool at 1:1 (v/v) ratio. The Yamazakki nutrient solution for cucumber was supplied to the media using micro-drip irrigation system. Experimental plots were consisted of no fertilization, deficient fertilization, adequate fertilization, and surplus fertilization for N, P and K. Specific color difference sensor value (SCDSV) measured by chlorophyll meter was closely related to total-N concentration in leaves measured by the conventional method. Nitrate, $PO_4$ and K concentration in petiole sap measured by test strips showed a significant relationship with total-N, P and K concentration in leaves. Linear regression equations between $NO_3$, $PO_4$ and K concentration in petiole sap and total-N, P and K concentration in the leaves were prepared. Optimum levels of $NO_{3}$, $PO_{4}$ and K in petiole sap were obtained by plugging the optimum concentrations of total-N, P and K in the leaves by other researchers into the equations. In conclusion, the SCDSV measured by chlorophyll meter and the concentration of $NO_3$, P and K in petiole sap measured by the test strips would be suitable for rapid estimation of plant nutrient status.
