Flavor components of dry shrimp, roasted-dry shrimp and roasted-dry shrimp with corn oil (w/w: 10%, 25%) were investigated to evaluate the effects of added corn oil on the formation of volatile components in dry shrimp during roasting process. The identified volatile included 20 nitrogen-containing compounds (7 pyrazines, 7 pyridines 3 pyrroles, others) 14 aldehydes, 5 alcohols, 4 ketones and 11 others. The largest quantities of lipid-derived products hexanal, nonanal, 2-pentylfuran, 1-octen-3-ol, trans-2-decenal, trans, cis-2,4-decadienal, trans, trans-2,4-decadienal were detected in the roasted-dry shrimp samples with corn oil. The lipid-derived aldehydes might be involved in the formation of 3- ethyl-2,5-dimethylpyrazine, 2,3,5-trimethyl-6- ethylpyrazine, 2-ethyl-5,6-dimethylpyrazine, 2,3,5- trimethylpyrazine, 3- ethyl-2,6-dimethylpyridine, 2-propylpyridine, ben-zopyrrole and the others. The nitrogen-containing compounds seem to be a major flavor component and responsible for characteristic flavor in roasted-dry shrimp with corn oil.

This study carried out to investigate the effects of the types of animal manure and the dogies of the slope on productivity of com and the runoff of nitrogen and phosphorus in corn cultivation soil. Main plots were consisted of the degrees of slope, such as $0\%\;9\%$ and $18\%$ and the subplots on consisted of the types of animal manure, such as chemical fertilizer (CF), compost of swine manure fermented with sawdust (CSMFS), and cattle slurry (CS). Erosion was constructed with 0.33 m width, 3 m length and 0.4 m height. The results obtained were summarized as follows; 1. Dry matter(DM) yield of corn decreased by an enhancement of the degrees of slope DM yield reveals that there is an increase in order CS > CF > CSMFS. 2. Nitrogen contents of the whole corn reveals that there is an increase in order CF>CS>CSMFS. However, nitrogen content was not affected by the degrees of slope. 3. Nitrogen yields (NY) of com decreased by an enhancement of the degrees of slope. NY of CS increased more than 2.0 fold as compared CSMFS. 4. Mineral nitrogen content in the runoff during the experiment was hardly influenced by both the degrees of slope and the types of animal manure. 5. $NO_3$ - N in the runoff during the experiment increased by an enhancement of the degrees of slope. 6. In the degrees of slope used in this experiment, $NH_4$-N and $PO_4$-P content in runoff was lower than 8 ug / ul and 1 ug/ul, respectively.

The differences of pigment compositions in leaf chloroplast between sun and shade plant were analyzed to investigate the photo-induced destructive effects on shade species under the strong light. Ginseng was selected as a C-3 shade plant, soybean as C-3 sun species and corn as C-4 malate forming sun species. To study the effects of light, ginseng was divided into two subgroups; the 1 and 2 lines received sunlight a little more than those of 3 and 4 lines. Total amounts of chlorophylls, carotenes and xanthophylls were not considerably different among 3 and 4-lined ginseng, soybean and corn. However, the amounts of the three components of 1 and 2-lined ginseng and the chlorophylls content in corn leaves were smaller than those of others. The molar ratio of lutein to total carotenoids was significantly high in ginseng, that of violaxanthin was considerably high in corn and that of neoxanthin the highest in 1 and 2-lined ginseng among tested samples. Chlorophylls to carotenes ratio was 16.0 and highest in ginseng, 13.2 in soybean and 12.0 in corn. In 1 and 2-lined ginseng, the molar ratios of lutein and carotenes were lower while those of neoxanthin and violaxanthin were higher than those of the samples of more light. It was noticeable that an antheraxanthin-like epoxy carotenoid detected in soybean and corn leaves extracts was not observed in ginseng leaf extract.

In this study, we analyzed the effect of corn growth on the radar backscattering coefficient. At first, we measured the backscattering coefficients of various corn fields using a polarimetric scatterometer system. The backscattering coefficients of the corn fields were also computed using the 1st-order VRT(Vector Radiative Transfer) model with field-measured input parameters. Then, we analyzed the experimental and numerical backscattering coefficients of corn fields. As a result, we found that the backscatter from an underlying soil layer is dominant for early growing stage. On the other hand, for vegetative stage with a higher LAI(Leaf-Area-Index), the backscatter from vegetation canopy becomes dominant, and its backscattering coefficients increase as incidence angle increases because of the effect of leaf angle distribution. It was also found that the estimated backscattering coefficients agree quite well with the field-measured radar backscattering coefficients with an RMSE(Root Mean Square Error) of 1.32 dB for VV-polarization and 0.99 dB for HH-polarization. Finally, we compared the backscattering characteristics of vegetation and soil layers with various LAI values.

Physicochemical properties of defatted and lipid-reintroduced kidney bean, mung bean, and corn starches were investigated. Granule shapes of kidney bean and mung bean starches were oval/round, but corn starch was polygonal and each shape was not changed after defatting and lipid reintroducing. The granule sizes of starches ranged $12{\sim}45{\mu}m,\;10{\sim}32{\mu}m\;and\;5{\sim}20{\mu}m$ respectively, but those of lipid reintroduced starches increased slightly. All starches showed Ca type in x-ray diffraction but relative crystallinity was decreased by defatting. The amylose contents of starches increased after defatting but decreased after lipid-reintroduction. The swelling power and solubility of untreated starches at each temperature increased by defatting but decreased by lipid-reintroduction except corn starches. The initial pasting temperatures of kidney bean, mung bean and corn starches by amylograph were $87,\;67\;and\;80^{\circ}C$ respectively, and those of them were lowered by defatting. The peak viscosity, height at $50^{\circ}C$, consistency and setback on amylogram of starches decreased by defatting but increased by lipid-reintroduction.

The objective of this study was to calculate the unit price of an alternative feed ingredient for broiler chickens in consideration of the energy and nutritive contents in the feed ingredient by using a simple Excel worksheet. A corn-distiller's dried grains with solubles (corn-DDGS) was used as an alternative ingredient and corn and soybean meal as ingredients to be replaced. The net change of feed price was calculated based on the replacement values which were estimated in consideration of energy and nutrient concentration in feed ingredients used in the calculation, the price of feed ingredients and inclusion rate of the alternative ingredient. The nitrogen corrected apparent metabolizable energy(AMEn) and standardized ileal digestible AA including Lys, Met, Thr, and Trp, total Ca, and available P were employed as nutritive component to calculate the replacement values for individual feed ingredients. The equation for replacement was 1 ${\times}$ corn-DDGS + 0.0334 ${\times}$ soybean oil + 0.0182 ${\times}$ Limestone = 0.8893 ${\times}$ corn + 0.13 ${\times}$ soybean meal + 0.0004 ${\times}$ Lys + 0.0022 ${\times}$ Met + 0.0005 ${\times}$ Trp + 0.0028 ${\times}$ Thr + 0.0264 ${\times}$ dicalcium phosphate. The replacement price of corn-DDGS was calculated to be 270 won/kg when the inclusion rate was 15% and the energy and nutrient contents were considered in the calculation. In conclusion, the Excel-based ingredient price calculator may be useful to determine the economic value when an alternative feed ingredient is used in diets fed to broiler chickens.

The effect of starches such as potato, corn and wheat starch on the rheological properties of ocean jumbo squid kamaboko was investigated. Changes in the water holding capacity and color values of those kamaboko gels was also studied using the maximum gel strength endowing starch, Wheat starch could ive the better water holding capacity and breaking stress than potato or corn starch within $10{\%}$ additional level but corn starch resulted the highest those value at $20{\%}$ added. Wheat starch had higher level of breaking strain and jelly strength at $10{\%}$ then in descending order were corn starch, potato starch. But those starches were decreased after $15{\%}$ level. Texture map showed the simple rheological properties of each starches heat gel with jumbo squid kamaboko, Corn starch map showed more tough and brittle than the other. Potato starch map showed more elastic gel than corn starch. Wheat starch map could make elastic-mushy gel. There was no significant color differences of each starches but the whiteness of each starch showed increase when the starch rate was increased.

Greenhouse and laboratory studies were conducted to investigate the allelopathic potential of alfalfa and vetch residues on soybean and corn using various extract concentrations (0, 5, 10, 15 and 20%, w/v) and residue rates (0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75 and 1%, w/w). Aqueous extracts of alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) and vetch (Vicia spp.) exhibited an allelopathic effect on soybean and corn seed germination, seedling length and weight. The degree of inhibition significantly increased as the aqueous extract concentration increased. Alfalfa and vetch 20% extracts reduced soybean seed germination, seedling length and weight by 35%, 57%, 32% and 15%, 42%, 25% respectively, when compared to control. Corn germination, seedling length and weight was inhibited by 20%, 23%, 38% by alfalfa and 19%, 18%, 35% by 20% vetch extracts. Alfalfa and vetch extracts inhibited secondary root formation and branching as the extract concentration increased. Alfalfa and vetch 20% extracts inhibited by 41% and 32% secondary root numbers, respectively as compared to control. It was found that the aqueous extract of alfalfa resulted in greater reduction in germination, seedling length and weight of soybean than that of vetch. Alfalfa and vetch 1% residue rate inhibited soybean plant height by 30% and 10%, leaf area by 31% and 23%, and dry weight by 18% and 1%, nodule number by 27% and 20% also. Alfalfa and vetch residue significantly enhanced plant height, leaf area and dry weight of corn. The maximum stimulation occurred with 0.25% and 1% of alfalfa and vetch residue rates, respectively. Plant height, leaf area, and dry weight increased by 23%, 59%, 58% and 17%, 52%, 94% with alfalfa and vetch residues of 0.25% and 1%, respectively. This study demonstrates that there is an allelopathic potential resulting from alfalfa and vetch residues on soybean growth and yield. It also suggests that these residues may affect crop growth and development due to the inhibitory or stimulatory effects of allelochemicals existing in the residue.

Crop production can be secured by the cycle of green manure crops as an alternative of the chemical fertilizer. Recently, rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) has been cultivated in the south part of Korea for the production of biodiesel. In this research, we focused on recycling rapeseed residue, which is produced after harvesting the rapeseed for biodiesel, as a potential source of nitrogen to the succeeding crop. Pot experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of winter rapeseed as green manure on mineralization and uptake of nitrogen to the succeeding corn (Zea mays L.). Result showed that total nitrogen and C/N ratio of rapeseed at the harvesting stage was 0.54% and 63, respectively. The incorporation of rapeseed without decomposition period slightly inhibited nitrogen uptake to the succeeding corn compared to those with 30 days decomposition period. The pH and EC values of soils increased by increasing the period of decomposition of rapeseed from 5.2 to 6.4 and from 0.05 dS/m to 0.21 dS/m, respectively. Significant amounts of $NH_4^+$ and $NO_3^-$ are released by incorporation of rapeseed. The succeeding corn took up 86% and 88% of inorganic nitrogen released from the rapeseed with and without decomposition period, respectively. The overall results suggested that the utilization of rapeseed residue as green manure can be an alternative source of nitrogen in corn-rapeseed double cropping system.

To find out the optimum storage temperature and duration, changes in the content of sugars and soluble solids and flavor rate of two sweet corn hybrids (Great Bell and Golden Cross Bantam) and a super sweet corn (Crisp Super Sweet 720) were observed after storing at -20, 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25$^{\circ}C$ for 1,3,5, and 7 days. At the temperatures below 10$^{\circ}C$, contents of soluble solids and total sugars and flavor rate were not changed significantly, but at the temperatures higher than 15$^{\circ}C$ they decreased as storage temperatures increased and duration extended. Storage duration conserving flavor seems to be 7 days at temperatures below 10$^{\circ}C$, 3 days at 15$^{\circ}C$, and 1-2 days at 25$^{\circ}C$. When corn was frozen, flavor rate was a little low compared with corn stored at 0$^{\circ}C$ although sugar content was higher. Both soluble solids and total sugar contents were positively correlated with flavor rate of cooked corn.
