Tobacco mosaic tobamovirus (TMV), cucumber mosaic cucumovirus (CMV), cucumber green mottle mosaic tobamovirus (CGMMV) and zucchini yellow mosaic potyvirus (ZYMV) from individual fruits and seeds of hot pepper and cucumber were detected by the reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The dilution end-points for RT-PCR in curde sap from TMV. and CMV - infected hot pepper leaves and CMV - and CGMMV-infected cucumber leaves were 10-5. However, the amount of PCR product obtained from preparation of ZYMV-infected cucumber leaf was 10-fold lower than those of CMV or CGMMV-infected cucumber leaves. In hot pepper, both TMV and CMV were detected in all parts of the fruit wall tissue, but the yields of PCR products in the fruit stalk and its surrounding tissues were higher than those of the end parts of the fruit. On the other hand, in cucumber fruit infected with CMV, CGMMV or ZYMV, the fruit wall tissue and seed located in both stalk and end parts showed higher yields of PCR products than those of intermediate parts. Of five viruses that were analysed, only TMV in hot pepper seed, and CGMMV and CMV in cucumber seed were detected in testa parts.

Root-knot nematodes cause a significant damage on fruit yield and quality of green house growing crops. To asses the effect of eggplant rootstock, Torvum vigor', TaibyouVF' and 'Daitaro' were grafted on eggplants(Solanum melongena cv. Chookyang) and planted in root-knot nematode infested microplot in green house and compared their fruit yield, quality and plant growth with non-grafted control. Eggplant grafted with Torvum vigor had the highest fruit yield and top growth and followed by Daitaro. Non-grafted eggplant had lower yield but had higher root weight because of heavy root-knot nematode infection. Rootstock grafting in eggplant farming is a good alternative technique in root-knot nematode infested green houses without compromising fruit yield and can be applied instantly as organic farming practice.

As agricultural production increases due to population growth, agricultural by-products that are generated at all production stages increase commensurately. Black soldier fly (BSF) (Hermetia illucens) treatment has potential as an environmentally friendly process to combat the environmental pollution caused by agricultural by-products. This study examined the utilization of BSF larvae in the decomposition of the by-products of apples and mandarins, fruits commonly produced in South Korea. The BSF test larvae were fed apple pomace or mandarin waste, and the control larvae were fed calf feed. Larval weight and size were measured at 4-day intervals until larvae reached the pre-pupal stage. Larval development time, survival rate, and BSF fecundity rate were calculated for all three substrates. Waste reduction and bioconversion ratios were also calculated. The developmental time of larvae fed with apple pomace and mandarin waste was greater than that of the control larvae. The average weight of larvae fed with the fruit by-products was less than that of the control. There was no significant difference in the survival rate of BSF larvae or the fecundity rate of BSF between the substrates used in this study. BSF larvae decomposed 48.0% and 61.5% of apple pomace and mandarin waste, respectively. The bioconversion efficiency rates of BSF larvae fed with apple pomace and mandarin waste were 9.1% and 12.1%, respectively. These results indicated that decomposition of single fruit by-products by BSF larvae is an environmentally friendly and effective bioconversion process.

This study aims to confirm the appropriateness of fruit and vegetable sales at military commissaries, with the purpose of enhancing the physical health and morale of military personnel. In order to achieve this objective, we examined the actual conditions of fruit and vegetable sales at military commissaries and analyzed the soldiers' awareness of fruit and vegetable sales through questionnaire surveys. The conclusions of this study are as follows: Firstly, fresh fruits and vegetables were not sold at military commissaries. Secondly, soldiers acknowledged the need for the consumption of fruits and vegetables and strongly expressed the desire for these fresh food products to be sold at military commissaries. Although the ROK Navy privatized military commissaries for the purposes of increasing management efficiency of national defense and strengthening combat power by transferring PX salesclerk soldiers to join combat personnel, this effort produced a negative effect of price increase. The following are proposals for improving this condition: fruit and vegetable products should be introduced to military commissaries through military welfare funds; fresh food markets should be established by closely cooperating with the local community's agricultural producers; processed fruit and vegetable product (dry, frozen, airtight packaged, etc.) sales should be increased; and the privatization of the navy commissaries should be abolished.

A fundamental study was conducted to obtain the basic data involved in nondestructive quality evaluation of the fruit and vegetables. An experimental equipment for ultrasonic propagation characteristics of the fruit and vegetables such as radish , carrot , potato, and apple was set up and also power spectrum analysis system of an ultrasonic wave through the fruit and vegetables was set up. The velocity and attenuation of ultrasonic wave through the tissue specimens from the fruit and vegetables were measured and analyzed. The elastic modulus and density by the mechanical method currently used were compared with those using by ultrasonic method. The ultrasonic tranit time was almost linearly increased with the length of the specimens and attenuation of ultrasonic was mainly affected by the internal flbrous structure of the products. The regression equation was derived from the highly correlated experimental variables.

본 연구는 식약공용 오미자를 메탄올 추출해 schizandrin, gomisin A, gomisin N 함량을 확인한 후 schizandrin, gomisin A, gomisin N 함량이 높게 나온 시료 중 하나를 선정해 오미자를 차로 음용 시 물 추출방법에 따른 생리활성 물질의 함량을 확인하였다. 추출방법은 열수 추출과 상온 침출로 추출상태, 추출온도, 추출시간을 달리하여 schizandrin, gomisin A, gomisin N 함량을 비교하여 적절한 음용법을 제시하고자 하였다. 오미자를 원산지별 메탄올 추출물 시 schizandrin, gomisin A, gomisin N 총 합 평균 함량은 10.57 mg/g이었다. 국산 오미자 11.42 mg/g, 수입산 오미자 10.12 mg/g으로 국산 오미자의 메탄올 추출물의 schizandrin, gomisin A, gomisin N 총 합 함량이 더 높았다(p < 0.05). 메탄올 추출에서 높게 나온 오미자를 이용해 물 추출 방법에 따라 추출방법, 추출형태, 추출온도, 추출시간을 달리해 생리활성 schizandrin, gomisin A, gomisin N의 함량을 확인한 결과 오미자 물 추출방법에서 생리활성 물질의 함량에 가장 큰 영향을 준 조건은 추출형태였다. 원형보다 분말형태로 오미자를 물 추출 시 생리활성 물질의 함량이 높게 나왔다(p < 0.05). schizandrin, gomisin A, gomisin N의 총 합 함량이 높게 나온 추출방법은 오미자를 분말형태로 $26^{\circ}C$에서 24시간 침출하거나 $100^{\circ}C$에서 5분 이상 열수 추출했을 때 유의적 차이가 없이 높게 나왔으나(p > 0.05) 오미자를 고온 열수 추출 시 떫은맛과 신맛이 강해지므로 따라서 오미자의 물 추출의 경우 분말상태로 24시간 이상 침출하는 것이 오미자의 생리활성 물질인 schizandrin, gomisin A, gomisin N을 좀 더 효율적으로 추출하고 기호적인 면도 고려할 수 있는 음용법 이었다. 차를 마시는 기능성을 고려하여 향후 오미자 뿐 아니라 가정에서 차로 많이 사용하고 있는 다양한 약용식물의 생리활성 물질에 특성에 따른 물 추출물에 대한 효율적인 추출법등의 연구가 이루어져 할 것이다.

Objective: Terminalia arjuna plant, specially its leaves, bark, and roots, are widely used in traditional herbal medicine due to presence of bioactive components and being a rich source of natural antioxidants. But its fruit has not been used for any such purposes despite its potential to retard oxidation. Hence, the antioxidant potential of Arjuna fruit extract (AFE) in retarding lipid and protein oxidation of raw ground pork was evaluated during refrigerated storage for 9 days. Methods: The AFEs were prepared using different solvents viz. ethanol (EH), water, ethanol: water (60:40) and methanol:hot water (60:40). The AFEs were analysed for total phenolic content (TPC), 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging activity and reducing power. Water extract (WE) and ethanol-water extract (EH-WE) were selected and incorporated at 1.0% into freshly minced pork meat and compared with a synthetic antioxidant, in retarding lipid and protein oxidation during storage. Results: The TPC in AFEs using different solvents ranged from 11.04 to 16.53 mg gallic acid equivalents/g and extracts exhibited appreciable scavenging activity ranging from 50.02% to 58.62%. Arjuna extracts significantly (p<0.05) improved the colour score of meat samples by reducing the formation of metmyoglobin during storage. Both the AFEs (WE and EH-WE) significantly (p<0.05) lowered the thiobarbituric acid reactive substances value, peroxide formation and formation of protein carbonyls in raw pork than control sample during storage. Upon sensory evaluation of all samples, it was found that AFE treatment could prolong the storage period of meat samples, without influencing the colour and odour score, up to 6 days. Conclusion: AFEs used at 1% improved the oxidative stability, colour and odour score and prolonged the refrigerated shelf life of ground pork up 6 days. Therefore, AFE could be explored as an alternative natural antioxidant in retarding lipid and protein oxidation in meat products.
