Nineteen clones of Jerusalem Artichoke (JA) from several countries were collected through the series of experiments about JA started in 1979. Collected clones were screened for adaptibility in Korea and showed introduction path way. The results about an ecological response of collected clones including flowering, tuberization, biomass production, sugar contents and grouping of collected clones for use of genetic material were as follows; 1. Nineteen clones collected were ffom Korea(2), Japan(l), USA(Z), Canada(2), France(4), Germany(7), and USSR(1). 2. Through the characteristics of top collected clones were divided to the types of branch-non branch, short and long plant height, and early and late maturity. Tuber characteristics were mainly grouped to the types of white skin color-violet skin color, clusters-single unit, round-elongate, and knotty-smooth. 3. Total sugar yields 6-om top at flowering time were 490 - 630kgl10a and 6-om the tuber were 420 -490 kg/ IOa through the high yielding clones.

To yield high concentrations of protein expressed by genetically modified Escherichia coli, it is important that the bacterial strains are cultivated to high cell density in industrial bioprocesses. Since the expressed target protein is mostly accumulated inside the E. coli cells, the cellular product formation can be directly correlated to the bacterial biomass concentration. The typical way to determine this concentration is to sample offline. Such manual sampling, however, wastes time and is not efficient for acquiring direct feedback to control a fedbatch fermentation. An E. coli K12-derived strain was cultivated to high cell density in a pressurized stirred bioreactor on a pilot scale, by detecting biomass concentration online using a capacitance probe. This E. coli strain was grown in pure minimal medium using two carbon sources (glucose and glycerol). By applying exponential feeding profiles corresponding to a constant specific growth rate, the E. coli culture grew under carbon-limited conditions to minimize overflow metabolites. A high linearity was found between capacitance and biomass concentration, whereby up to 85 g/L dry cell weight was measured. To validate the viability of the culture, the oxygen transfer rate (OTR) was determined online, yielding maximum values of 0.69 mol/l/h and 0.98mol/l/h by using glucose and glycerol as carbon sources, respectively. Consequently, online monitoring of biomass using a capacitance probe provides direct and fast information about the viable E. coli biomass generated under aerobic fermentation conditions at elevated headspace pressures.

Raw material of gelidioid red algae yielding high-quality agar has been in short supply due to overharvesting, but in situ farming of gelidioids has not been practical due to their slow growth. To produce vegetative seedstock of a cosmopolitan species, Pterocladiella capillacea, we investigated the number and length of regenerated branches arising from sectioned fragments during 3 weeks of laboratory culture at 10, 15, 20, and 25℃. All sectioned fragments formed axis-like branches mostly from the upper cut edge and stolon-like branches mostly from the lower cut edge, showing a high capacity of regeneration and intrinsic bipolarity. At 20℃, the number of regenerated branches increased to 2.74 ± 1.29 on the upper cut edge and 4.26 ± 2.66 on the lower cut edge. Our study reveals that the use of fragments bearing regenerated branches as seedstock can be a simple method to initiate fast propagation for mass cultivation in the sea or outdoor tank.

To increase rice production, manipulating plant architecture, especially developing new high-yielding cultivars with erect leaves, is crucial in rice breeding programs. Leaf inclination angle determines the light extinction coefficient (k) of the canopy. Erect leaves increase light penetration into the canopy and enable dense plantings with a high leaf area index, thus increasing biomass production and grain yield. Because of erect leaves, the high-yielding indica rice cultivar 'Takanari' has smaller k during ripening than 'Koshihikari', a japonica cultivar with good eating quality. In our previous study, using chromosome segment substitution lines (CSSLs) derived from a cross between 'Takanari' and 'Koshihikari', we detected seven quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for leaf inclination angle on chromosomes 1 (two QTLs), 2, 3, 4, 7, and 12. In this study, we developed a near-isogenic line (NIL-3) carrying a 'Takanari' allele for increased leaf inclination angle on chromosome 3 in the 'Koshihikari' genetic background. We compared k, dry matter production, and grain yield of NIL-3 with those of 'Koshihikari' in the field from 2013 to 2016. NIL-3 had higher inclination angles of the flag, second, and third leaves at full heading and 3 (- 4) weeks after full heading and smaller k of the canopy at the ripening stage. Biomass at full heading and leaf area index at full heading and at harvest did not significantly differ between NIL-3 and 'Koshihikari'. However, biomass at harvest was significantly greater in NIL-3 than in 'Koshihikari' due to a higher net assimilation rate at the ripening stage. The photosynthetic rates of the flag and third leaves did not differ between NIL-3 and Koshihikari at ripening. Grain yield was higher in NIL-3 than 'Koshihikari'. Higher panicle number per square meter in NIL-3 contributed to the higher grain yield of NIL-3. We conclude that the QTL on chromosome 3 increases dry matter and grain production in rice by increasing leaf inclination angle.

This research was conducted to examine the changes in growth and production of Oryza sativa L. cv. Ilmi, which was developed to cultivate high yielding rice variety in the Southern plains of Korea. The seedlings of the rice were cultivated from May to October in 2012 under three different conditions: control, AC-AT, ambient $CO_2$ + ambient temperature; AC-ET, ambient $CO_2$ + elevated temperature; EC-ET, elevated $CO_2$ + elevated temperature. The aboveground biomass, belowground biomass, the total biomass of the rice, and panicle weight per individual were the heaviest in the EC-ET. But, the number of grains per panicle and the weight of one grain was higher at the condition of AC-ET and EC-ET than that of AC-AT. The number of tiller was higher at the condition of AC-AT and AC-ET than that of EC-ET. However, there was no significant difference in the number of panicles per individual and the ripened grain rate among the control and global warming treatments. Crop yield was the highest in the EC-ET. This result means that the global warming condition should be considered in the selection of suitable paddy field for the limibyeo in the future.

Lodging is a serious issue in rice production, because it drastically decreases the biomass production and grain yield. Since the Green Revolution, the lodging resistance has been increased by lowering the moment of above-ground parts due to the short culm by the semi-dwarf gene sd1. However, it has been pointed out that sd1 alone has suppressive effects for biomass production and yield. To increase rice yield, the long-culm and large panicle type varieties with a superior lodging resistance need to be developed. To improve the lodging resistance and yield of these type varieties, it would be effective to identify novel alleles for these traits underlying natural variations in rice and to pyramid these alleles to a single rice variety. In order to perform this strategy, we have developed new rice lines derived from crosses among varieties with superior alleles. At first, TULT-gh-5-5 was selected from a cross between strong culm and high biomass variety Leaf Star and high-yielding variety Takanari, and TUAT-32HB was selected from a cross between high-yielding variety Akenohoshi and Takanari. Then, we developed the super thick-culm and super grain-bearing line, LTAT-29 derived from a cross between TULT-gh-5-5 and TUAT-32HB. In the current study, to identify the QTLs and genes relating to the strong culm and the high yield of LTAT-29, we performed QTL analysis using SNPs markers with $F_2$ population derived from a cross between LTAT-29 and Takanari. LTAT-29 has never lodged throughout the growth period despite it had long culms and heavy panicles. LTAT-29 had a larger outer diameter of the culm and twice the size of the section modulus than Takanari. As a result, the bending moment at breaking of LTAT-29 was significantly larger than that of Takanari. Brown rice yield of LTAT-29 was $9.2t\;ha^{-1}$ about 10% higher than that of Takanari due to the larger number of spikelets per panicle. LTAT-29 had a greater number of secondary branches per panicle. In the $F_2$ population between LTAT-29 and Takanari, we found continuous frequency distributions in the section modulus and the spikelet number per panicle. Two QTLs increased the section modulus by the alleles of LTAT-29 were detected on Chr.1L and Chr.2L. One QTL increased the spikelet number per panicle of Takanari by the allele of LTAT-29 was detected on Chr.1L, and two QTLs increased the number of secondary branches per panicle by the alleles of LTAT-29 were detected on Chr.1L and Chr.4L. It was found that the alleles of these QTLs were the japonica type originated from Leaf Star or Akenohoshi. The novel QTLs for the traits related to super thick-culm and super grain-bearing and their combinations could be utilized for improving the lodging resistance and yield in rice varieties.

본 연구에서는 Phellinus linteus 균사체의 액상배양을 통한 면역증강 생리활성 효능의 단백다당체 생산공정을 개발하기 위한 시도로서, 우선 생산균체의 원형질체 형성을 통한 고생산성 균주를 개발하고자 하였으며, 발효기 액상배양 시 최적 배양형태의 유도를 통해 균사체와 단백다당체의 생산성을 극대화하고자 하였다. 본 연구실에서 채취한 생산 균주를 ITS rDNA sequencing 방법과 blast search 방법에 의해 조사한 결과 다양한 Phellinus linteus 종들과 99.67% 이상의 유사성 확인되어, 이 균주를 Phellinus linteus라고 최종적으로 동정할 수 있었다. 이 동정된 균주로부터 균주 개량을 시도하기 위해 Phellinus linteus 균사체로부터 대량의 원형질체 형성 및 재생에 의한 단일 콜로니 획득 방법을 개발함으로써 균주를 신속하게 개량할 수 있었다. Sorbitol을 이용한 banding filtration 방법을 이용하여 원형질체를 회수한 결과 $10^5{\sim}10^6\;protoplasts/ml$를 얻을 수 있었으며, 원형질체 재생률은 $10^{-2}{\sim}10^{-3}$로 나타났다. 균주개량을 위해 원형질체 재생배지와 고체배양배지에서 고성장성 및 고안정성을 보이는 균주들을 지속적으로 대량 선별하여, 액상 생산배양을 수행하였다. 그 결과 균사체량은 13~15 g/L로 대부분 비슷하게 자랐으며, 조단백다당체의 함량 또한 5.8~6.4%로 거의 비슷하게 분포하는 것으로 나타났는데, 이로부터 고체배양배지에서 빠른 성장속도를 보여주는 균주들이 대부분 액상 생산배양에서도 고생산성 및 고안정성을 보여주는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 한편 Phellinus linteus 균사체의 경우 조단백다당체의 함량이 세포 무게당 거의 일정한 양을 함유하고 있는 것으로 확인되었으므로, 조단백다당체의 생산성을 증가시키기 위해서는 최종 생산배양에서의 균체량 증가가 가장 중요한 것으로 판단되어, 균사형성 고등균류의 균사체 배양 시 균체량 증가에 가장 중요한 요인 중의 하나인 생산균주의 배양형태적 특성에 대해 집중적으로 조사하였다. 균주개량 실험을 통해 고생산성 균주로 최종 결정된 AR147 균주를 이용해서 다양한 배양조건에서 발효조 배양을 수행한 결과, 최종 생산발효조로의 접종원이 고농도의 균사모양인 경우에 생산균주의 배양형태가 매우 작은 compact한 펠렛 모양(대부분 직경 0.5 mm 이하)을 유지하는, 이상적인 균사체 액상배양 공정이 이루어지는 것으로 확인되었다. 즉 생산 발효조배양에서 직경 0.5 mm 이하의 compact한 펠렛 모양의 배양형태가 유도되었을 경우, lag phase 시간의 획기적 감소와 1.5배 이상의 높은 세포비성장속도로 인해, 최종 균사체생산성이 다른 배양형태를 유도한 경우에 비해 약 3.3배 더 높은 주목할 만한 배양결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 이로부터 균사 형성 Phellinus linteus의 산업용 발효조 배양 시, 각 배양단계에서의 생산균체의 배양형태가 최종 균체생산성, 궁극적으로는 최종 단백다당체의 생산성에 심각한 영향을 미친다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

Rice production in Korea has markedly increased during the last two decades due to newly developed high yielding varieties and improved production technology. This experiment was conducted to determine the potential of tropical japonica germplasm in enhancing the yield of temperate japonica. The yield performance of two tropical japonicas (IR 65597-29-3-2 and IR66154-52-1-2) and one temperate japonica (Dongjinbyeo) was compared at different plant densities and nitrogen levels under Korean environmental conditions. Although tropical japonicas showed low tillering habit and large panicles, they had similar leaf area index and dry weight at heading stage to Dongjinbyeo of the high tillering type indicating that there was not much difference between tropical and temperate japonica in terms of biomass production. The highest milled rice yield of 6.15 t/ha was obtained from Dongjinbyeo at a high nitrogen level with less planting density (220 kg N/ha and 30 $\times$ 15 cm). However, those of the two tropical japonicas were 5.36 t/ha at the condition of 165 kg N/ha and 30 x 10 cm planting density and 5.06 t/ha at the condition of 165kgN/ha and 15 x 15 cm planting density, respectively. Ripened grain of tropical japonicas ranged from 65 to 87%, while that Dongjinbyeo ranged from 82 to 97% under Korean conditions.

By the progress of genome sequencing, infrastructures for marker-assisted breeding (MAB) of rice came to be established. Fine mapping and gene isolation have been conducted using the breeding materials derived from natural variations and artificial mutants. Such genetic analysis by the genome-wide dense markers provided us the knowledge about the many genes controlling important traits. We identified several genes or quantitative trait loci (QTL) for heading date, blast resistance, eating quality, high-temperature stress tolerance, and so on. NILs of each gene controlling heading date contribute to elongate the rice harvest period. Determination of precise gene location of blast resistance gene pi21, allowed us to overcome linkage drag, co-introduction of undesirable eating quality. We could also breed the first practical rice cultivar in Japan with a brown planthopper resistance gene bph11 in the genetic back-ground of an elite cultivar. Discovery of major and minor QTLs for good eating quality allowed us to fine-tune of eating quality according to the rice planting area or usage of rice grain. Many rice cultivars have bred efficiently by MAB for several traits, or by marker-assisted backcross breeding through chromosome segment substitution lines (CSSLs) using genetically diverse accessions. We are also systematically supporting the crop breeding of other sectors by MAB or by providing resources such as CSSLs. It is possible to pyramid many genes for important traits by using MAB, but is still difficult to improve the yielding ability. We are performing a Genomic Selection (GS) for improvement of rice biomass and grain yield. We are also trying to apply the genome editing technology for high yield rice breeding.
