This study carried out to investigate selection response of pure line population of layer chicken. Data for two layer pure line of Single Comb White Leghorn were collected from 1986 to 1991. Primary selection criteria were egg number to 270 days of age (EN270), egg weight(BW270), body weight (BW270) at 270 days of age and the days of the 1st egg(SM). The results obtained in this study are summarized as follows ; 1. Mean phenotypic values of two strains were decreased by 1.94 day(K), 1.320ay(F) for SM and increased by 0.09g(K), -0.05g(F) for EW 270 and 0.56(K), -0.78(F) for EN270. 2. The ratio of a realized selection differential to expected selection differentials for SM (sexual maturity), EW 270, and BW 270 were not significantly decreased during 5 generations. 3. Heritability were estimated from sib analysis. The means of estimates were 0.28(F), 0.39(K) for BW270, and 0.25(F), 0.29(K) for EN270 and 0.51(F), 0.48(K) for EW270. 4. The genetic gains were estimated by method of selection index in retrospect on the basis of selection differentials. EN270 and EW270 were found to increase by 2.01(F), 2.25(K) and 0.54 (F), 0.65(K) per generation.

We have studied the effects of incoherent pumping on EIA at the transition between the $F_g=2$ ground state and the $F_e=3$ excited state in $^{85}Rb\;D_1$-line. Generally, the studies about EIA have been done in the cycling transition, where the population has no loss to other states. In the case of EIA by using the $^{85}Rb\;D_1$ transition line, the population is transferred to the other hyperfine state due to optical pumping. We incoherently pumped the atoms from $F_g=3\;to\;F_g=2$ with the pumping beam, which is resonant at the transition from $F_g=3\;to\;F_g=2$. We were able to observe the effects of incoherent pumping depending on the power and the polarization of the pumping beam.

Xanthoceras sorbifolium is considered as bio-energy crops owing to the high oil content from kernel. This study was performed to analyze calorific value, crude ash content, ultimate ratio, crude lipid and fatty acid composition among seed sources. Calorific values ranged from $4,526.0\;cal\;g^{-1}$ to $7,377.2\;cal\;g^{-1}$ in seeds and kernels showed the highest value. Calorific values and crude ash contents were observed as significant difference among plantations and/or individuals (p>0.05). Kernel from SD-F plantation showed the highest calorific value and lower crude ash content. C content comprised 63.4%, the highest levels was detected from SD-F (64.8%). Crude lipid content in kernel observed as 54.5 g $100\;g^{-1}$ from SD-F. In contrast it was determined the lowest value from LN-JARS as 46.5 g $100\;g^{-1}$. The fatty acid composition of kernel was determined to those of oleic acid (31.3%) and linoleic acid (38.1%) from SD-F and LN-JARS. These results will be offered to useful information for breeding materials selection.

To obtain information on the inheritance of grain weight and grain size of japonica cultivar, Sobibyeo which has high yielding potential and large grain in rice, the genetic variation, heritability and phenotypic correlation of 1,000 grain weight, grain length, width and thickness were investigated in two crosses, Iksan 429/Sobibyeo and Iksan 430/Sobibyeo. The gram characteristics of $\textrm{F}_1$ hybrids exceeded mid-parental values, while grain length: width ratio was intermediate between the parents. In $\textrm{F}_2$ populations, the average grain length, width and thickness were intermediate as mid-parental values, but grain weight exceeded the mid-parental values. In $\textrm{F}_2$ populations of Iksan 429/Sobibyeo and Iksan 430/Sobibyeo, mean 1,000 grain weights were 24.86g and 25.04 g on the average, and ranged 18.4g-32.2g and 19.5g-33.4g, respectively. The segregation mode for grain weight was regarded as a nearly normal distribution in two crosses of $\textrm{F}_2$ populations. Estimates of broad sense heritabilities for grain weight in Iksan 429/Sobibyeo and Iksan 430/Sobibyeo were high as 89.00% and 89.06%, and grain length showed the highest heritability among grain characteristics as 97.45% and 97.35%, respectively. Grain weight was highly correlated with grain length, width and thickness, and grain length was highly correlated with grain width and thickness. These grain characteristics were apparently controlled by polygenes. Accordingly, these traits will be readily improved through selection in the early segregating generations.

A simple, fast and reproducible quantitative analysis method for sugar concentration composed in oligosaccharide mixture was developed. Two glass TLC plates were prepared per sample. After dipping one plate into the copper bicinchoninate reagent and the other plate into 5% sulfuric acid solution, both plates were baked in microwave oven until sugar spots were developed or the surface temperature of TLC plate becomes 60 to 70 $^{\circ}C$. The corrective factor values [F value =(the value of total sugar concentration converted as glucose unit/the value of reducing sugar concentration converted as glucose unit)/(polymerization degree of sugar)] of different molecular weight sugars were determined. Within the concentration of 0.25∼1.0 $\mu\textrm{g}$ in each sample loaded, the fructose-F (corrective factor value of fructose) was 0.45, yet for the higher concentration (2.5∼7.5 $\mu\textrm{g}$) fructose-F was 1.0. In case of glucose, in the range of 0.5∼7.5 $\mu\textrm{g}$, glucose-F was same as fructose-F, 1.0. However, as the molecular weight of sugar was increased, the F values were decreased in both maltodextrin and isomaltodextrin oligosaccharides in 0.5∼7.5 $\mu\textrm{g}$ of each sample loaded. Interestingly, F values were equal for the same molecular weight sugars, although the structures were different from each other. Using F value of each sugar, we could determine and compare the exact total sugar concentration of different molecular weight maltooligosaccharide and isomaltooligosaccharide. We also could determine if the unknown sugar was a reducing or non-reducing compound by using optimized TLC with microwave oven method.

This study aimed at characterizing the rheological properties and molecular weight of tara gum fractionated with ammonium sulfate. Tara gum was separated into six fractions (F1-F6) at different concentrations of ammonium sulfate, ranging from 12.21 to 28.67% (w/w). The yield of the tara gum fractions ranged between 4.98 and 17.47%, and their intrinsic viscosity ranged from 9.38 to 12.44 dL/g. The highest values of Huggins coefficient (k') and viscosity-molecular mass were observed in fraction F3. The shear viscosity of the tara gum fractions was measured by a cone-plate viscometer, clearly showing shear thinning behavior. Size-exclusion chromatography results showed that the molecular weight ranged between 635.42 and 776.71 kg/mol, and the F3 fraction exhibited higher values of molecular weight.

The characteristics of plantlets redifferentiated from calli of F1 hybrid between Panax ginseng and Panax quinquefolius were investigated. Growth of plantlets redifferentiated from F1 hybrid was superior to the plants redifferentiated from Korean ginseng. Stem color of plantlets redifferentiated from F1 hybrid was more purple than that from Korean ginseng and leaf color of the former was also greener than that of the latter. Chunpoong, Yunpoong and Seonweon which are belonged to Korean ginseng showed same PCR band(A), while American ginseng showed different PCR band (B) in Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS) region. F1 hybrid exhibited both A and B PCR band which belonged to Korean ginseng and American ginseng, respectively. F1 hybrid calli and plantlets redifferentiated from F1 hybrid calli showed same PCR band with that of F1 hybrid plant in ITS region. Therefore it was confirmed that piantlets redifferentiated from F1 hybrid exhibited genetic stability in ITS region.

Excess application of paper mill sludge (PMS) in field can limit phosphorus uptake by crops because aluminum presented in the sludge can fix or adsorb available phosphorus which is necessary for crop growth. To investigate phosphorus (P) adsorption characteristics of PMS, we examined P adsorption maximum $(X_m)$ using Langmuir isotherm and P adsorption energy constant $(K_f)$ using Freundlich isotherm for PMS without alum, PMS with alum, and composted PMS with alum through a laboratory incubation test. The maximum P adsorption capacities were 800 ${\mu}g\;g^{-1}$ in soil, 47 $mg\;g^{-1}$ in PMS without alum and 61 $mg\;g^{-1}$ in PMS with alum. P adsorption capacity with alum treatment for PMS increased by 30%. That of PMS compost was 68 $mg\;g^{-1}$ and showed that composting increases 11% of P adsorption. Freundlich constant $K_f$ was 22 in check soil, while $K_f$ values in PMS without alum and in PMS with alum were 398 and 426, respectively. After composting, $K_f$ value of PMS compost significantly increased as 1,819. In conclusions, p adsorption capacity for PMS were increased by alum treatment or composting and therefore excess or continuous land application of alum-amended or composted PMS can limit P uptake for crops by reducing available P in sell.

Productivity of biosurfactant (rhamnolipid) by Pseudomonas aeuginosa F722 was investigated in the several culture conditions and culture composition. Biosurfactant production by P. aeuginosa F722 was amounted to 0.78 g/l as the result of the nitrogen sources and carbon sources without investing of optimum conditions. As for that one was investigated, biosurfactant production by P. aeruginosa F722 was amounted to 1.66 g/l. Biosurfactant production increased twofold because the composition of a modified C-medium was investigated efficiently. $NE_4$Cl or $NaNO_2$ inorganic nitrogens and yeast extract or trypton organic nitrogens were effective, but others inorganic nitrogens and organic nitrogens tested were not efficient far biosurfactant production by P. aeruginosa F722. The optimum concentration of $NH_4$Cl; inorganic nitrogen and yeast extract; organic nitrogen were 0.05% and 0.1%, respectively. In various carbon sources, others with the exception of hydrophobic property substrate (n-alkane) and hydrophilic property substrate (glucose, glycol) were not found to be effective fur biosurfactant production, and 3.0% was better in yield than other concentration of glucose. This yielded C-to-N ratios between 17 and 20. In our experiment, the highest biosurfactant production by P. aeruginosa F722 were observed in 5 days cultivation, containing glucose 3.0%, $NH_4$Cl 0.05%, and yeast extract 0.1% and C-to-N ratio was 20. Optimal pH and temperature for biosurfactant production were 7.0 and $35^{\circ}C$, respectively. Under the optimal culture conditions with glucose, biosurfactant production was amounted to 1.66 g/l. Velocity of biosurfactant production and strain growth increased after nitrogen depletion. The average surface tension of 30 mN/m after the 3 days of incubation under optimal culture condition was measured by ring tensionmeter.
