The red emission properties of $Mn^{4+}$ doped $SrAl_{12}O_{19}$ prepared by the solid-state reaction was investigated, in order to verify its potential to act as the red emitting phosphor of white LEDs. The emission spectrum exhibits a narrow band between $600{\sim}700 nm $ with four sharp peaks occurring at about 643, 656, 666, 671 nm due to the $^2E\to^4A_2$ transition of $Mn^{4+}$. The excitation spectrum exhibits a broad band between $200{\sim}500 nm$ with three peaks occurring at about 338, 398 and 468 nm, respectively. Moreover, the relative emission intensity of $SrAl_{12}O_{19}:Mn^{4+}$ with or without $CaF_2$ and MgO fluxes measured at excitation source 390 nm. The relative emission intensity of $SrAl_{12}O_{19}:Mn^{4+}$ containing 0.67mol% MgO was approximately 30% higher than that of the base composition sample. Strontium hexa-aluminate measured at room temperature as a function of the substituted Mg concentration. MgO was added to replace part of the $Al_2O_3$. Also, the relative emission intensity of $SrAl_{12}O_{19}:Mn^{4+}$ containing 0.67 mol% MgO and 0.67 mol% $CaF_2$ was approximately about 48% higher than that of the base composition $SrAl_{12}O_{19}:Mn^{4+}$.

Ceramic pigments, which show good thermal and chemical stabilities, have been applied for various industry with development of digital printing technology. Ceramic inkjet printing has advantages of high efficiency of ink usage and eco-friendly process. Thus, the interest of the ceramic pigments with various function and color including CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow, black) digital primary color is increasing. Here, we investigated the thermal and chemical stabilities of white ceramic pigment for digital inkjet printing process. The microstructure and crystal structure of MgO, $Al_2O_3$, $MgAl_2O_4$, $CeO_2$ were analyzed, and the stability with glaze were evaluated. In order to evaluate the applicability for digital inkjet printing, the chemical stability of white ceramic pigments at high temperature was investigated by characterization of the mixed color properties with CMYK ceramic pigments after firing process.

Fifty-day-old plug seedlings of yacon (Polymnia sonchiflolia Poeppig ＆ Endlicher) were transplanted on Mar. 23, Apr,8, Apr,23, May 8, May 23, and June 7,2002 at Jeju to evaluate the effect of transplanting date on the growth and yield of yacon in Jeju island. Delaying the transplanting until May 23 greatly decreased plant height stem height, main stem diameter and number of nodes per plant. The number of marketable tuberous roots was about 6.0 per plant with the early transplanting from March 23 to April 231 but decreased to 1.9 per plant with the latest transplanting time, June 7. The yield of marketable tuberous roots of early transplanted (March 23 to April 23) yacon was about 27 MT/ha, and was 32.4 MT/ha at April 23 transplanting, but was remarkably reduced at the three later transplantings, May 8, May 23, and June 7. Dry matter and soluble solid contents of marketable tuberous roots were 14％ and 15％, respectively, regardless of transplanting date. The weight of a marketable tuberous root ranged from 153 to 183.9 g at the first three transplantings, but gyeatly reduced with delaying transplanting until May 7. The optimum transplanting date for yacon in Jeju island seems to be from mid-April to late April considering tuberous root yields, the risk of late-spring frost, and cost of seedling raising.

From January to December 2007, we have investigated sediment types, environmental factors and density of clam Ruditapes philippinarum inhabited at Oeri, Naeri, Jonghyeon and Bangmiri tidal flats in Gyeonggi Bay off the west coast of Korea. Sediment types of Oeri and Jonghyeon were characterized with well sorted muddy sand. In contrast, Bangmiri tidal flat was mainly composed of poorly sorted gravelly muddy silt and Naeri was characterized with very poorly sorted muddy-sandy gravel. During the course of study, the surface water temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen and pH ranged 3.2 to $27.0^{\circ}C$, 21.7 to 33.3 ‰, 5.6 to 12.7 mg/l and 7.36 to 8.82, respectively. The suspended solid (SS) ranged from 3.2 to 1,266.0 mg/l and chlorophyll-a level in the water column ranged $0.3-36.1{\mu}g/l$, respectively. The density of clam in the study areas was mainly determined by the harvesting activities rather than the types of substrate. Relatively higher density of clam was observed in Oeri and Bangmiri where the clam seeds were sowed by the villagers. Condition factor of clams were found to be higher in Oeri where the substrate sorting was better with higher level of chlorophyll a. It was believed that sediment types and the level of available food the two governing factors controlling the density and growth of clam in Gyeonggi Bay.

When rapeseed oil as the carbon source was used for tylosin production from Streptomyces fradiae TP-1239 was very sensitive to oleic acid. Cell growth was restrained by adding 0.8 g/l of oleic acid to the culture broth. Mutant strain TM-224-1 resistant to 1.2 g/l of oleic acid was obtained by screening in solid and liquid media containing oleic acid. The uptake rate of oleic acid by TM-224-1 was approximately 3.8 fold higher than the parent strain. For comparing the TM-224-1 and the parent strain, batch cultures were carried out in a jar fermentor. Cell growth of TM-224-1 strain was higher than the parent strain after two days of culturing. However, after four days of culturing, it was similar to that of the parent strain. The amount of rapeseed oil consumed by TM-224-1 and the parent strain were 60.5 and 78.2 g/l, respectively. The production and yield of tylosin was aproximately 2.0 and 3.2 fold higher than the parent strain, respectively. From these results, it was concluded that this mutant, which was resistant to oleic acid, has improved tylosin production.

This study was conducted to find out the influence of red LED (Light Emitting Diode) lighting on the photosynthesis, vegetative growth and fruit quality of 'Fuji'/M.26 adult apple tree during night after sunset. The photosynthetic rate, stomatal conductance and transpiration rate at daytime of red LED treatments was not different to those of the control. However, the stomatal conductance and transpiration rate at the nighttime of red LED treatments were lower than those of the control, and the red LED lighting during night after sunset was not induce to photosynthesize at nighttime. In the leaf characteristics, the red LED lighting seemed to increase leaf area and C/N ratio, but decrease SPAD value. The bourse shoot length of the red LED treatments was shorter than that of the control. In the fruit quality, the red LED lighting seemed to increase ethylene production, respiration rate, soluble solid content and fruit red color, and especially the fruit red color tend to increase as the red LED lighting time was longer. In conclusion, the red LED lighting during night after sunset of 'Fuji'/M.26 apple tree promoted the fruit maturation.

The red emission properties of $Bi^{3+}$ co-doped $Y_2O_3:Eu^{3+}$ prepared by the solid-state reaction was investigated, in order to verify its potential to act as the red emitting phosphor of white LEDs. The emission spectrum consisted of a weak band at 581, 587, 5931 and 599 nm, with maximum sharp peaks occurring at about 611 nm due to the $^5D_0{\rightarrow}^7F_2$ transition of $Eu^{3+}$, while the excitation spectrum exhibited a broad band between 290 and 430 mm with peaks occurring in the range of $310{\sim}390nm$. Also, SEM image of the sample containing 0.43 mol% $H_3BO_3$ and 2.08 mol% $BaCl_2{\cdot}2H_2O$ phosphor particles grew to achieve diameters of $700{\sim}800nm$.

Anthers from several lines of carrot (Daucus carota L.) were plated on the semi-solid B$_{5}$, basal medium supplemented with 2,4-D and NAA at two concentrations, 1.0 and 2.0 mg/L plus 0.2 mg/L BAP (benzylaminop-urine). Anthers of the most lines on the B$_{5}$ basal medium with 2,4-D showed higher percentages of callus formation than those with NAA. Particularly, in line 45477, highest percentages of callus formation (50%) were observed on B$_{5}$ medium with 1.0 mg/L 2,4-D plus 0.2 mg/L BAP. With 1.0 mg/L 2,4-D, two months was sufficient for initiation of callus development. Calli were regenerated into plantlets through embryogenesis onto regeneration medium without any growth regulators. When callus showing yellowish and soft structure was cultured, it yielded green plants at high regeneration rates, The response of anthers in callus induction and plant regeneration was different among lines investigated. Optimal callus induction and plant regeneration could be obtained through manipulating the concentration of growth regulators. Plantlets after transfer to perlite were grown successfully in greenhouse conditions. Anther culture of carrot will be used as a useful breeding tool in future.

Red clay has been used for making rakuyaki for the past 400 years. Because the resources for red clay in Japan are being depleted, many potters in Japan began to develop new materials which can replace red clay. In this study, It is analyzed that the chemical and physical properties of red clay from Shigaraki (Shiga, Japan), and developed a novel engobe which can be used for making Rakuyaki instead of Shigaraki red clay. Results from Raman spectroscopic examination showed that ferric oxide content in Shigaraki red clay is 9.4 % (Goethite 5 %, Wustite 4.4 %), and that the mechanism of red color development by the firing at $900^{\circ}C$ for 10 min is the chemical transformation of Goethite into Hematite, and the subsequent formation of solid solution with Alumina and Silica. To make similar ferric oxide content to that of Shigaraki red clay, we added 5 g of Goethite and 9 g of Wustite to 100 g of White kaolin from Hadong area (Gyeongsangnam-do, Korea). The $L^*a^*b^*$ color scale of the mixture was 56.83, 27.22, and 23.28, respectively, and stable red color was successfully developed under the same firing condition used for Shigaraki red clay.

This study was conducted to examine the effects of IAA and kinetin on induction of gemmae and gametophytes in Hypnum plumaeforme moss during tissue culture. Explants were obtained from sterilized gametophyte tips cultured on solid basal medium containing Knop's major salts and Nitsch and Nitsch's trace elements. After culture, inoculated gametophyte tip produced protonema firstly, changed to new gametophytes after four weeks. Aseptic gametophytes were chopped and inoculated on the same media containing 0.01, 0.1, 1 and $10{\mu}M$ of IAA and kinetin. As a result, secondary protonemata as well as protonemal gemmae were formed from gametophytes. But protonemal gemmae formation was varied according to the concentration of IAA and kinetin. Lower concentration of IAA and kinetin promoted gemma formation and bud induction. Especially, $0.01{\mu}M$ of kinetin showed the highest frequency of bud and gemma production. All the materials, obtained from $0.01{\mu}M$ kinetin medium, were subcultured to media supplemented with 0.01, 0.1, 1 and $10{\mu}M$ of IAA and kinetin again to induce gametophytes. After subculture, protonema and calli were developed from secondary protonema, and induced gametophytes finally. IAA regulated induction and growth of gametophytes, and kinetin influenced gemma formation and gametophyte induction also. All aspects of development of this moss species were governed by the external growth regulators.
