Resistance to Phytophthora blight (Phytophthora capsici Leonian) of commercial cultivars of Capsicum pepper in Korea were evaluated from 2008 to 2010. In 2008 and 2009, the cultivars were tested for resistance to the Pc003 isolate collected in Youngyang, Gyeongbuk province. In 2010, the selected cultivars in the previous years were tested by inoculating with 3 isolates obtained from the pepper plants in Miryang in Gyeongnam province, Youngyang in Gyeongbuk province, and Goesan in Chungbuk province. A continuous variation in resistance from highly resistant to susceptible was observed among the commercial pepper cultivars. It was also noted that some cultivars, although their names were initiating with 'Yeokgang' or 'PR' meaning Phytophthora resistance, were very low in resistance or susceptible. When the resistant cultivars selected in 2008 and 2009 experiment were inoculated with the 3 isolates, all the commercial cultivars except a rootstock, 'Tantan', succumbed to the exceptionally virulent Pc005 (Miryang) isolate. Pc002 (Goesan) was a little more virulent than Pc003 (Youngyang). A few cultivars resistant to Pc003 (Youngyang) were severely infected by Pc002 (Goesan). Significant interaction in analysis of variance suggested the differential interactions between cultivars and pathogen isolates. Strategies to breed cultivars having high level of resistance to the highly variable pathogenic fungus, Phytophthora capsici, were discussed.

Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) is an important worldwide disease in the livestock industry. To characterize BVDV circulating in Gyeongbuk province in the Republic of Korea which has the highest cattle population density, 365 rectal swabs from clinically BVDV Korean indigenous calves were collected. Fifty cases were identified as positive for BVDV. A phylogenetic analysis of 5'- untranslated regions (UTR) revealed that most of our cases belonged to BVDV-2a (n = 48), while only two cases were classified as BVDV-1a (n = 1) and 1b (n = 1), respectively. These results indicated that BVDV-2a is the most prevalent subgroup in Korean indigenous calves of Gyeongbuk province.

This study was performed to assess the financial performance of medical institutions and examine the affecting factors in Taegu metropolitan and Kyungpook province. The major results are as follows ; The liability to total assets was significantly different according to the ownership type of medical institution. It was the highest in the case of juridical person having a special status. The total assets turnover and value added to total assets were significantly different according to the type of medical institution, period of establishment, and ownership type of medical institution. They were higher in the tertiary medical institution, in private hospital and university hospital, and they were increased with establishment period of medical institution. The growth rate of patient revenues were significantly different according to the type of medical institution, period of establishment, and the growth rate of adjusted inpatient days were significantly different by period of establishment. The return on assets and net profit to gross revenues were the highest in private hospital. Private hospital went into the black, but other hospitals went into the red figures. According to the multiple regression analysis for the net profit to gross revenues, ownership type, period of establishment, and management strategy of medical institution were significant It was higher in private hospital and medical institution with prospector management strategy, and it was increased with establishment period of medical institution. In multiple logistic regression analysis for the status of financial performance in medical institution, period of establishment, management strategy of medical institution were significant It was better in medical institution with prospector management strategy and longer period of establishment.

To compare the contents of well-known effective constituents, paeoniflorin, albiflorin and benzoic acid, of Korean paeony roots cultivated at different regions, this study was to provide the basic information for the quality evaluation of paeony roots. HPLC analysis showed that the paeoniflorin contents of white paeony roots of 3 years grown at Eui-seong gun, Kyungpook was the highest of 2.06% and red paeony roots of 3 years grown at Im-sil gun, Junpook was the lowest of 1.33%. The highest level of albiflorin contents was 2.04% of red paeony root grown at Ul-jin gun, Kyungpook, while the lowest levels were 0.05% of Eui-seong gun, Kyungpook and 0.06% of Im-shil gun, Junpook. The highest level of benzoic acid contents was 0.12% of red paony roots grown at Choung-do gun, Kyungpook and that grown at Ul-jin gun, Kyungpook was the lowest. Based on the average of three available constituents, the paeony roots cultivated at Kyungpook province was the highest contents of 2.03%, while 1.47% at Junpook province. These results suggest that Kyungpook province is the best region for the cultivation of white and red paeony roots, the combining of three available constituents would be more accurate than use of paeoniflorin only.

The objectives of this study are ; 1) To analyze the time use and the invironments of rural housewives household labor according to the characteristics of agriculture. 2) To investigate the factors influencing household labor time. In this study, the rural areas are divided into two groups according to characteristics of agriculture. One is traditional agricultural area-Seokchon Dong in Youngcheon Kun, and the other is commercial agricultural area-Dongpo 1 Dong in Sungju Kun. Two areas are located in Kyungpook Province. 145 housewives dwelling in above two villiages were interviewed. The statistics used for data analysis were frequency, percentile, T-test, x2-test, and multiple regression analysis. Results are as follows; 1) household labor time had not significant differences Hetween Youngcheon and Sungju. But agricultural labor time was longer in Sungju than in Youngcheon. 2) household labor environments in Sungju were better than those in Youngcheon. 3) household labor time was influenced by agricultural labor time and socio-cultural time.

The actual status of production, management and export of 96 traditional food processing companies which supported by the government in Kyungpook province were investigated. Governmental support contributed to the increase of farmhouse income, employment and depreciation of agricultural products a bit, but it was supported mostly to unexperienced party. Technologies for food processing developed in institute and college were little. 42 percent of packaging design was developed by service commission, but the agency was very limited. Total export price in 1996 was 2.3 billion Won, but it was decreased in 1997. The responce to the prospect of traditional food processing work, 37.5 percent replied that this work can bring up as exportable product, but ambiguious response was a little. To settle a weakness of farming food processing work, the establishment of special marketing comapny was required and this company should accomplish marketing advertizing and exporting business.

Waste management in Jeju Province, Korea, has recently emerged as an urgent problem. The increasing waste discharge requires more landfills but, since it is an island, the available land is restricted. Accordingly, an efficient waste management urgently requires environmentally sustainable policies. In this article, the waste discharge characteristics (such as the amount of waste, its composition, etc.) of Jeju Province have been compared with those in the rest of Korea. The current industrial waste management of two cities on the Island, Jeju City and Seogwipo City, has been also analyzed to suggest policies for an efficient management. The local government's endeavor to enhance environmental awareness of the community has been known to reduce the private cost of policy compliance, and have individuals recognize the results of their policy compliance. Policies to achieve the above are then proposed.

A study on the population density of crayfish intermediate hosts and infestation status of crayfish with encysted larvae of Paragonimus westermani in Ulchin county, Kyungpook Province, Korea was conducted from May to October in 1986. The population density of the crayfish ranged from 1 to 13, with an average of 4 per man-hour. Among the six habitats, Ducheon had a somewhat higher density than that of the others. Of eight hundred and seventeen crayfish examined, 127 or 15.5 per cent harboured the metacercarial larvae of Paragonimus westermani. The majority of the larvae were found in three parts of the body: most frequently in the cephalothorax, next in the gills, and then in the liver. The average number of metacercarial larvae per infected crayfish ranged from 1.0 to 1.9, with an average of 1.7. Summarizing the results, this study indicates that the population density of crayfish intermediate host and infestation rates for the crayfish with encysted larvae of Paragonimus westermani in Ulchin county of Kyungpook Province is relatively high.
