In this study, structural safety capacity analysis of the overpass railway bridge between Konkuk Univ. and Guui station railroad has been performed. The overpass is expected to have suffered durability reduction by deterioration. The weight reduction of the overpass has been implemented to prevent further durability reduction and to improve performance capacity. To reduce the weight, 3 procedures of replacing concrete soundproofing wall to light-weight soundproofing wall, replacing gravel ballast to concrete ballast, and reducing the weight of trough have been performed. The analysis of static/dynamic behaviors and improved capacity of the light-weighted overpass bridge has been performed. The structural safety verification of the improved structure has been implemented by using rating factors of load carrying capacity of PSC I girder. The results have shown that the deflection has been reduced by 2.6mm and tensile strength has been improved by 1.07MPa, which indicate that the structural capacity has effectively been improved. Also, the natural frequency has improved by approximately 30% where vibration reduction and dynamic behavior improvement have been achieved. Moreover, in the rating factor evaluation based on analysis and test results, an improvement from 1.82 to 1.93 has been observed. Therefore, weight reduction method for the overpass is effective considering overall results.

Two fruit moths of the oriental fruit moth, Grapholita molesta (Busck), and the peach fruit moth, Carposina sasakii (Matsumura), infest apples in Korea by internally feeding behavior. C. sasakii is a quarantine insect pest from some other countries importing Korean apples. G. molesta is not a quarantine insect pest, but can be incorrectly identified as C. sasakii especially when it is found inside apple fruits at its larval stages because it is not easy to identify the two species by morphological characters alone. This incomplete identification results in massive economical loss by fruits needlessly destroyed or turned away at border inspection stations of the importing nations. This difficulty can be overcome by molecular DNA markers. Several polymorphic regions of mitochondrial DNA of both species were sequenced and used for developing specific striction sites and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primers. Based on these sequences, three diagnostic PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) sites were detected and validated for their practical uses. Also, species-specific PCR primers were devised to develop diagnostic PCR method for identifying the internal feeders.

Since the demonstration that the transgenic plants expressing tobacco mosaic virus(TMV) coat protein(CP) gene showed resistance to TMV infection, there have been numerous attempts to produce virus-resistant plant by introducing of a part of or modified viral genome. This study was conducted to investigate the characterization and variability of disease outbreak of transgenic potato(T-potato) with the CP gene of potato leaf roll virus(PLRV) in an isolated field from 2000 to 2002. In the field inspection, incidence of PLRV on T-potato showed only 3.5％, while non-transgenic potato(N-potato) revealed 13.4％. Infection rate of PLRV was considerably low on T-potato with 4.2％ compared to 15.4％ of N-potato in ELISA tests. Those of potato virus M, potato virus Y and potato virus X on both potatoes were not statistically different. Infection of potato virus A was not observed on both potatoes. Incidence of potato late blight caused by Phytopkhora infestans on T-potato and N-potato did not differ each other with 52.7％, and 50.8％, respectively, Mating type of the causal fungus isolated from both potatoes was all Al types. Results indicates that the CP gene of PLRV affects specifically to the virus in the transgenic potato.

Phragmites australis is the dominant and constructive species among plant communities in the wetlands of the downstream of Yellow River, China. Its morphological characters were high variable in different habitats. Studies on Morphological and RAPD variation of 15 P. australis populations from this region showed that soil salinity was the dominant ecological factor that affected the morphological characters of P. australis. The basal diameter, height, leaf length, leaf width, internode length, internode accounts, panicle length were negatively related to salinity. 194 loci were amplified by RAPD, of which 9 loci was highly negative-related to salinity, and showed a tendency to prefer the habitats with fresh water. 4 loci were positively related to the salinity, and showed a tendency to prefer the salinized habitats. Most loci were neutral to salinity. The morphological and genetic characters of BZH were special, and the speciality should not be determined by salinity. The morphological characters were affected by genetic information and environment. The morphological characters should change gradually and continuously along environmental gradient under plasticity, but should changed continuously or not in genetic control. The relevancies among quantitive characters, ecological factors and genetic variation in natural populations still will still be a focus and difficulty of ecological genetics of P. australis in the future.

Six kinds of wheat flour were used for the assessments of the content of crude protein and the valorimeter value of Farinograph. Results obtained from these assessments are as follows. 1. In the case of common wheat varieties, a great differences are understood between Korean wheat and American wheat. The content of crude protein is negatively correlated to the valorimeter value in Korean wheat variefies, but there is a proportional tendency in American wheat varieties. 2. In the case of American wheat varieties, distinct differences are recognized between common wheat and durum wheat. The content of crude protein is directly correlated to the valorimeter value in common wheat varieties, but there is no proportional tendency in durum wheat.

SBAS is a satellite based navigation correction system that provides correction information and integrity information of GNSS signal through geostationary satellite based on analysis of GNSS signal in ground station. KASS, a Korean SBAS, is aiming at the APV-1 class SoL service in 2022. Sufficient ground and flight tests must be performed in advance to provide SoL services. However, since KASS, the Korean SBAS, has not yet been added in Korea, specific detailed evaluation items are not presented. EGNOS, which is expected to be the most compatible with KASS and is being serviced after its development, has already been evaluated. In this paper, we analyze the regulations applied to EGNOS construction and analyze the criteria of ground and flight test evaluation items required for flight testing, which is expected to be referenced to the flight inspection process in the future.
