  • Sexual reproduction is an essential process in the propagation of flowering plants. Recent advances in plant cell biology and biotechnology have brought new and powerful methodologies to investigate and manipulate the reproductive processes of angiosperms including agronomically important crop plants. Successful cryopreservation of maize, rye and triticale pollen and young embryos of microspore-and zygote-origine contributes to long term preservation of important plant germ-lines in gene banks. Discovering morphogenetic characteristics of the different developmental pathways taking place in wheat and maize androgenesis in vitro helps to influence the procedure to produce genetically and phenotipically stable homozygous doubled haploid plants for breeding purposes. Detailed ultrastructural and cell-biological studies on the developmental sequences of male and female gametophyte development in wheat, experimental protocols developed to isolate and micromanipulate egg cell protoplasts, make it possible to use plant gametes and the sexual route itself to produce genetically improved organisms. Plant gametes can become useful tools for crop improvement in the near future. Recent achievements by our laboratory in this field are reviewed in the present paper

  • 최근 holonic path, holonic management, holonic innovation이라는 용어가 눈에띄게 되었다. holonic, 이 단어는 영어사전을 들쳐도 발견이 쉽지 않다. 그 까닭은 이 단어가 holon이라는 어구에서 유래된 것이며, 영국의 작가이자 과학평론가였던 아터 (Arthur) 게스토가 만든 조어이기 때문이다. Hungary 태생인 Arthur는 Wien 대학공학부 에서 물리학을 공부한후, 영국에 귀화, 4 년전 1982년 부인과 같이 자살을 하여 화제를 일으킨 유명한 소설가이자 과학평론가이다. holon이라는 조어가 처음 사용된 것은 그의 저서<기계속의 유령>에서 인데, 그는 그의 저서에서 holon의 어원을 다음과 같이 설명하고 있다. 이라고. 그래서 holon이라는 단어는 그리스어 <전체>를 뜻하는 holois와 개체 또는 부분을 뜻하는 on을 합성시켜 만든 조어 라는 것이다. 최근의 신어 영어사전을 보면 holon보다 큰 전체의 일부를 구성하는 완전체, 또는 자율적인 존재(실체), 윤곽이 확실한 존재 (물)라고 풀이되고 있다.

  • In North Korea, the first report of the family Tortricidae, comprising 34 species, was made in 1969. It includes three species of the genus Grapholita (G. inopinata, G. molesta, and G. turionana). Among them, G. turionana is now placed under the genus Blastesthia. In the present study, a total of four species of the genus Grapholita are recognized from North Korea, based on material deposited in the Hungarian Natural History Museum, Hungary. Of them, Grapholita molesta (Busck), is reported for the first time from North Korea. In the present study, G. inopinata was not found. All the known species are enumerated with illustrations of adults and genitalia. Also a key for the genus is given.

  • There are many countries having a long history of exotic tree introduction from different countries and several countries including New Zealand, Brazil and Hungary have successfully introduced exotic trees. Korea's tree breeding program for introduction of exotic tree was originally started from 1924. Records reveal that hundreds of tree species were introduced from many countries and tested their germination and viability. About 415 introductions were eliminated since they had been introduced and tested. Subsequently, seven exotic trees that proved successful in trials and plantations have planted for afforestation. Simultaneously, several promising exotic trees are still under the test. In this paper, we will succinctly review and evaluate their comparative growth performance of the exotic trees in the plantation programs of the country to coping with climate change.

  • The tire production facility is a large-scale construction with the complexity of a manufacturing process. The process utilities should be wide-ranging as an effective arrangement of them is highly important. All the necessary information should be clarified together with the manufacturer at the basic planning stage, and this design should be developed to comply with the local culture and regulations. It is important to carry out more advanced engineering in terms of process, cost and quality, even if it is difficult to standardize due to the cultural and geographical conditions and regulations. The key point is to reflect all the given conditions and make a clear design during the design stage, to eliminate the problems after the construction has begun. Another key point is the delivery system, which must be totally managed from the initial design stage until the construction stage by proven companies. Flexibility, quick action, and single responsibility will be the fundamental features in all the steps of the project.

  • Purpose : This study evaluate the thermal changes caused by use of the chemoport for drug administration and blood sampling during radiofrequency hyperthermia. Materials and Methods : 20cm size of the electrode radio frequency hyperthermia (EHY-2000, Oncotherm KFT, Hungary) was used. The materials of the chemoport in our hospital from currently being used therapy are plastics, metal-containing epoxy and titanium that were made of the diameter 20 cm, height 20 cm insertion of the self-made cylindrical Agar phantom to measure the temperature. Thermoscope(TM-100, Oncotherm Kft, Hungary) and Sim4Life (Ver2.0, Zurich, Switzerland) was compared to the actual measured temperature. Each of the electrode measurement position is the central axis and the central axis side 1.5 cm, 0 cm(surface), 0.5 cm, 1.8 cm, 2.8 cm in depth was respectively measured. The measured temperature is $24.5{\sim}25.5^{\circ}C$, humidity is 30% ~ 32%. In five-minute intervals to measure the output power of 100W, 60 min. Results : In the electrode central axis 2.8 cm depth, the maximum temperature of the case with the unused of the chemoport, plastic, epoxy and titanium were respectively $39.51^{\circ}C$, $39.11^{\circ}C$, $38.81^{\circ}C$, $40.64^{\circ}C$, simulated experimental data were $42.20^{\circ}C$, $41.50^{\circ}C$, $40.70^{\circ}C$, $42.50^{\circ}C$. And in the central axis electrode side 1.5 cm depth 2.8 cm, mesured data were $39.37^{\circ}C$, $39.32^{\circ}C$, $39.20^{\circ}C$, $39.46^{\circ}C$, the simulated experimental data were $42.00^{\circ}C$, $41.80^{\circ}C$, $41.20^{\circ}C$, $42.30^{\circ}C$. Conclusion : The thermal variations were caused by radiofrequency electromagnetic field surrounding the chemoport showed lower than in the case of unused in non-conductive plastic material and epoxy material, the titanum chemoport that made of conductor materials showed a slight differences. This is due to the metal contents in the chemoport and the geometry of the chemoport. And because it uses a low radio frequency bandwidth of the used equipment. That is, although use of the chemoport in this study do not significantly affect the surrounding tissue. That is, because the thermal change is insignificant, it is suggested that the hazard of the chemoport used in this study doesn't need to be considered.

  • Background: This study aimed to investigate the standardized incidence and mortality rate of colorectal cancer and its relationship with the human development index (HDI) across the world in 2012. Materials and Methods: This ecologic study was conducted for assessment of the correlation between age-specific incidence rate (ASIR) and age-specific mortality rate (ASMR) with HDI and its components. Data for SIR and SMR for every country for the year 2012 were obtained from the global cancer project. We used a bivariate method for assessment of the correlation between SIR and SMR and HDI. Statistical significance was assumed at P<0.05. Statistical analyses were performed using SPSS (Version 22.0, SPSS Inc.). Results: Countries with the highest SIR of colorectal cancer in the world in 2012, were Republic of Korea, Slovakia, Hungary and countries with the highest SMR were Hungary, Croatia and Slovakia. The correlation between SIR of colorectal cancer and the HDI was 0.712 ($P{\leq}0.001$), with life expectancy at birth 0.513 ($P{\leq}0.001$), with mean years of schooling 0.641 ($P{\leq}0.001$) and with level of income per each person of the population 0.514 (P=0.013). In addition, the correlation between SMR of colorectal cancer and the HDI was 0.628 ($P{\leq}0.001$), with life expectancy at birth 0.469 ($P{\leq}0.001$), with mean years of schooling 0.592 ($P{\leq}0.001$) and with level of income per each person of the population 0.378 (P=0.013). Conclusions: The highest SIR and SMR of colorectal cancer was in the WHO Europe region. There was a positive correlation between HDI and SIR and SMR of colorectal cancer.

  • 이 연구는 1990년대 이후 헝가리 농촌지도의 특징적인 변화를 고찰하였다. 헝가리의 농촌지도사업은 오랜 역사를 가지고 있으며 주로 대규모 농장을 대상으로 한 농업기술전파에 주력하였다. 1990년대 이후 사유재산의 인정과 시장경제체제로의 전환과 함께 시장에서의 경쟁력이나 지속성에 대한 요구는 농촌지도사업의 방향전환을 요구하게 되었다. 유럽연합의 농업정보시스템 표준화에 요구와 헝가리 내의 농산업구조의 변화는 농업정보시스템 구축의 필요성을 낳게 되었다. 헝가리에서 농업정보시스템의 개발은 농업경제연구정보원(AKII, Research and Information Institute for Agricultural Economics)과 중앙통계사무소(Hungarian Central Statistical Office)에서 이루어졌다. 시스템 개발의 주요 분야는 농업통계, 농장회계자료네트웍, 시장정보시스템의 세 가지이며 이들의 복합적인 농업정보시스템으로 형성되었다. 본 연구에서는 위의 세 가지 주요 범주의 개발배경과 진행사항, 문제점들을 살펴보고 개선방향을 제시하였다. 헝가리 농업 농촌개발부(The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development)의 최근 정책의 특징은 전국적인 농촌지도상담 네트웍의 구축이라고 할 수 있다. 현재의 헝가리 농촌지도사업체계는 크게 세 부분으로 나누어 볼 수 있다. 첫째 농업농촌개발부의 군사무소는 지역사회의 독농가나 선도농가와의 밀접한 관계를 유지하며, 이러한 독농가나 선도농가로 하여금 지역의 농민들에게 도움을 줄 수 있도록 하는 것이다. 둘째는 민간 자문가들이 농장을 방문하여 현장에서 농민들에게 전문적인 도움을 주도록 하는 것이다. 민간 자문가들은 도 단위의 전문지도사들로부터 정보나 기술에 대한 전문적인 도움을 받는다. 세 번째는 전문교육기관을 통한 농민들에 대한 직접적인 교육이다. 이러한 교육들은 농민들에게 무료로 제공되며, 교육과정이나 프리젠테이션, 전시 등을 통해 이루어진다. 현재 헝가리 농촌지도체계는 그 실행과정, 효율성, 조직적인 면에서 완성되지 못하였고 전환기에 처해 있다. 효율적인 농촌개발을 위해서는 농촌지도상담의 효과나 조직면에서 많은 연구와 정비가 필요한데 이는 헝가리의 국가적 이익의 증대와 유럽연합의 목적에 부합하기 위해서도 적극적인 관심과 노력을 필요로 하는 분야이다. 이러한 필요성을 바탕으로 농촌지도사업의 새로운 모델을 제시하면, (1) 수도인 부다페스트에 농촌지도사업을 전반적으로 책임지는 중앙부서를 설립하여 효과적인 농촌발전을 지원하여, (2) 7개의 도에 농학계 대학과 연구소를 중심으로 하는 지역센터를 설립하여 도내의 농촌지도상담활동과 영농에서 농업관련 사안에 대해 문제해결 중심의 도움을 주도록 하며, 지역센터는 자율적, 독립적으로 운영하도록 하고, (3) 50여개의 군에 일선지도기관을 설립하여 농업인들이 쉽게 방문할 수 있도록 하며, 지역의 특수한 상황이나 사안에 대해 융통성 있게 대처할 수 있도록 하는 것이다.
