본 연구의 목적은 서지학적 기록을 통하여 인삼의 기미(氣味)변화를 고찰하고자 한다. 한국 산양삼(山養蔘) 재배는 A.D. 1000년 경 고려시대로부터 시작되었다. 그 후, A.D. 1500년-1600년 경 조선시대에 인삼재배 기술이 확립되었다. 이 무렵 집 근처 밭에서 인삼을 재배하기 시작하였고, 이를 가삼(家蔘)이라고 기록하고 있다. 가삼재배는 A.D. 1790년 경 전국으로 확대되었다고 정조실록에 기록되어 있다. 한편, 인삼의 기미는 A.D. 250에서 A.D. 1600년까지 대부분 동양의학서적에 미한(微寒)으로 기록되어 있다. 그러나, A.D. 1600년 이후에는 미온(微溫) 또는 온(溫)으로 기록하고 있다. 이와 같은 인삼의 기미변화를 인삼재배역사 기록을 통하여 고찰해보면, A.D. 1600년 경 이전의 미한(微寒)의 기미 인삼은 산삼 또는 산양삼으로 인식할 수 있고, A.D. 1600년 경 이후의 미온(微溫) 또는 온(溫)의 기미 인삼은 가삼으로 인식할 수 있다. 또한, 기미를 미한(微寒)으로 표기하였던 한의서의 효능은 오장을 주로 보하고, 정신을 안정시킨다는 효능을 위주로 하였으나, 온(溫)으로 표기한 1600년대 이후의 한의서의 효능은 원기를 보하고, 진액을 생성시킨다는 효능이 주로 또는 추가된 것을 알 수 있다. 이와 같은 결과는 재배환경이 산에서 들로 바뀌면서 인삼의 성질(기미)과 효능의 변화가 온 것으로 판단된다. 향후, 재배환경에 따른 성분변화가 효능차이에 미치는 연구가 고려인삼의 정체성 확인에 필요하다고 생각한다.

백령도는 인천광역시 옹진군에 속한 대한민국의 서해 최북단의 섬이고 면적은 51km²로 우리나라 섬 중에서 15번째로 크다. 1996년에 당시 한국담배인삼공사와 한국인삼연초연구소가 백령도에서 인삼의 재배 가능성을 조사하였다. 1997년에 옹진군의 재배 비용 지원에 힘입어 백령도에서는 최초로 인삼 묘포가 조성되었고, 1999년에 한국담배인삼공사와의 계약에 의해 밭에 묘삼(苗蔘)을 이식하였다. 2003년 본포에서 5년간 재배된 6년생의 첫 수확이 있었고 생산된 전량을 한국인삼공사에서 수매하였다. 이후 한국인삼공사는 2012년까지 2년생 밭을 계약하여 6년생이 된 2016년 가을까지 해당 밭에서 생산된 인삼을 수매하였다. 이후 2014년부터는 김포파주인삼농업협동조합과 계약하여 인삼을 생산하고 있다. 백령도의 6년생 재배 밭 9개소(총 5,961칸)를 조사한 결과 생육이 양호한 상위 5개소는 생존주율(生存株率)이 42.6~68%이고 생육이 부진한 하위 4개소는 생존주율이 11.1~21.3%로 매우 저조하였다. 생존주율이 저조한 4개소는 공통으로 전작물(前作物)이 다비성 작물인 고추였다. 고추재배 시 처리된 퇴비나 거름으로 인하여 토양에 질소 성분이 과잉 남아 인삼 뿌리를 썩게 하였을 것으로 판단된다. 전체 인삼밭의 평균 잎점무늬병 발병엽율(發病葉率)은 8.6%이었는데, 6년생 6개소는 1.1~4.7%로 발병엽율이 낮았으나 다른 3개소는 16.7~20.9%로 높게 나타났다. 결주(缺株)와 잎점무늬병 발병이 많은 것은 육지보다 적은 강우량 때문에 해가림 피복을 비가 새는 차광망으로 설치한 것이 원인으로 추정된다. 한편, 황갈색 반점형 황증이 3% 발생한 밭이 있었는데 토양 중 철 성분이 과잉으로 존재하여 인삼에 과다하게 흡수되었기 때문으로 추정된다. 백령도 인삼재배에서 생산성을 증대시키기 위해서는 토양에 대한 이화학적 분석 결과를 토대로 해서 과학적 방법으로 예정지 관리를 강화하여야 하며, 비가 새지 않는 차광지로 해가림하고, 점적관수 시설을 설치하는 등 백령도에 적합한 인삼경작법을 개발해야 할 것으로 생각된다. 백령도의 아름다운 자연환경에 인삼제품과 음식을 특화하여 인삼이 백령도의 새로운 발전 동력이 되기를 기대한다.

We investigated the diversity of the foliar endophytes of Korean ginseng. Endophytic fungi were isolated from healthy leaves of mountain-cultivated ginseng (MCG) and field-cultivated ginseng (FCG) at 4 sites in Chungbuk Province. A total of 24 species of fungal endophytes were identified using molecular approaches. Additionally, the diversity of these endophytic fungi was compared between MCG and FCG. The major isolated endophytes were Edenia gomezpompae and Gibberella moniliformis in the MCG and FCG samples, respectively. The results suggest that ginseng endophytes have different community structures in different environments, and this understanding may prove useful in ginseng cultivation.

Photosynthesis and respiration of leaf and root of field grown Panax ginseng were investigated according to aerial part sensecence. No apparent photosynthesis activity was detected in senescenced leaf(less than 0.7mg total chlorophyll/g FW) and leaf dark respiration was consistent relation with senescence. Leaf respiratory Q$_{10}$ consistently increased with senscence. Root respiration and Q$_{10}$ tended to decrease with aerial part senescence only in the range of optimum temperature of leaf growth. Apparent photosynthesis or respiration of leaf was negatively or positively correlated, respectively with the increase of air temperature. Root respiration with temperature was well accordance with Arrhenius plot which was not consistent with aerial part senescence. Accelerated senescence may be recommendable for better root yield unless any reserve in stem or leaves contributes to root through translocation.

Identification of the age of ginseng root is very important in commercial market as well as in research field. However, any criterion abut it has not been clearly established yet. We studied to find a clear morphological key for identification of ginseng root\\`s age using the histochemical staining method. Fresh sections of 3, 4, 5, and 6 year old roots were stained with 1% nile blue, observed under the light microscopy, and compared each other. The number of secretory duct layers(SDL) is a useful key to confirm the age of ginseng root as follow; three-year-old root has two, four-year-old one has three, fie-year-old one has four, and six-year-old one has five resin duct layers on each cortical region of roots. Secretory ducts are thought to be formed by the vascular cambium every year. Unlike the surrounding parenchyma cells, secretory epithelial cells lack starch grains in the cytoplasm.

A field experiment was conducted in the arid interior of British Columbia, Canada to assess the seasonal soil temperature and moisture regimes in an American ginseng garden. As a consequence of the man-modified microclimate (elevated shade canopy and surface covering of mulch), the growing environment of the crop was fundamentally altered when compared to adjacent agricultural growing environments. In the ginseng garden, soil temperatures were found to remain low throughout the growing season whereas soil moisture remained high when compared with the outside garden environment. These results indicate that even in the hot, arid environment of the interior of British Columbia, the growing of ginseng is undertaken in sub-optimal conditions for the major part of the growing season. This poses challenges for the producers of the crop to modify the architecture of the gardens to enhance the soil regime without creating a deleterious aerial environment.

A field experiment was conducted to find out the effects of field productivity, variety and nitrogen rate on the yield, quality, chemical constituents and physical properties of burley cured leaf in three field with different productivity(Degree of field productivity: A ; high, B ; medium, C : low) during successive two years(1988~89). The yield and quality were remarkably lowered when nitrogen fertilizer being applied much in low productive field. As compared with Burley 21, KB101 showed high yield, particularly the yield of KB101 in low productive field was relatively high. The effect of nitrogen rate on the yield was somewhat different according to field productivity and production year. When the nitrogen fertilizer being applied above 22.5kg/10a, the added nitrogen had no effect on the yield. Total nitrogen content of cured leaf grown in low productive field was high while total alkaloid was low, therefore total alkaloid/total nitrogen ratio was remarkably low. The lightness, red and yellow color of cured leaf grown in low productive field was remarkably low. As compared with Burley 21, the contents of total alkaloid and total nitrogen and shatter resistance index of cured leaf was somewhat low, while the filling power, lightness, red and yellow color were slightly high. Total nitrogen content of cured leaf was increased remarkably by nitrogen addition, but total alkaloid was not increased though the nitrogen fertilizer being applied above 22.5kg/10a. The filling power and shatter resistance index of cured leaf grown in high nitrogen plot, and the lightness and yellow color were low while the red color was relatively high. It comes into question that the visual quality being increased as well as increment of yield and nitrogenous compounds by nitrogen addition in high productive field. In low productive field, it is considerable that nitrogen addition for high yield should be prohibited because it causes the decrement of yield and quality, on the contrary.

Korean ginseng has been used for thousands of years as an important medicinal plant. Lime-Bordeaux mixture (LBM) was made with copper sulfate and quicklime, which was sprayed instead of pesticides in ginseng field. Net photosynthesis ($P_N$) was compared between Treatment and Non-treatment of LBM in 3 Year Old Ginseng. $P_N$ in control plot recorded $2.94{\mu}mol\;(CO_2)\;m^{-2}s^{-1}$ at the first day of experiment, which was similar until the last day of experiment. However, The $P_N$ in LBM recorded $2.23{\mu}mol\;(CO_2)\;m^{-2}s^{-1}$, which was lower than that in control plot. As time goes by, The $P_N$ in LBM was gradually increased up to $3.21{\mu}mol\;(CO_2)\;m^{-2}s^{-1}$ and finally, it was similar with that in control plot at 7th day as a $3.20{\mu}mol\;(CO_2)\;m^{-2}s^{-1})$.

Red ginseng (RG, the extract of Panax ginseng Meyer) has various biological and psychological activities and may also alleviate fatigue-related disorders. The present study was undertaken to evaluate what kind of fatigue red ginseng alleviate. Animals were orally administered with 50, 100, 200, 400 mg/kg of RG for 7 days. Before experiments were performed. Physiological stress (swimming, rotarod, and wire test) are behavioral parameters used to represent physical fatigue. Restraint stress and electric field test to a certain degree, induce psychological fatigue in animals. Plasma concentration of lactate and corticosterone (CORT) were also measured after these behavioral assays. RG supplementation (100 mg/kg) increased movement duration and rearing frequency of restrainted mice in comparison with control. 100 and 200 mg/kg of RG increased swimming time in cold water ($8{\pm}4^{\circ}C$) while at 100 mg/kg, RG increased electric field crossing over frequencies. 50, 100 and 200 mg/kg RG prolonged running time on the rotarod and at 100 mg/kg, it increased balancing time on the wire. RG at those doses also reduced falling frequencies. RG supplementation decreased plasma CORT levels, which was increased by stress. Lactate levels were not significantly altered. These results suggest that RG supplementation can alleviate more the damages induced by psychological than physical fatigue.
