Background: Ginseng black spot disease resulting from Alternaria panax Whuetz is a common soil-borne disease, with an annual incidence rate higher than 20-30%. In this study, the bacterial strains with good antagonistic effect against A. panax are screened. Methods: A total of 285 bacterial strains isolated from ginseng rhizosphere soils were screened using the Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion method and the Oxford cup plate assay. We analyzed the antifungal spectrum of SZ-22 by confronting incubation. To evaluate the efficacy of biocontrol against ginseng black spot and for growth promotion by SZ-22, we performed pot experiments in a plastic greenhouse. Taxonomic position of SZ-22 was identified using morphology, physiological, and biochemical characteristics, 16S ribosomal DNA, and gyrB sequences. Results: SZ-22 (which was identified as Brevundimonas terrae) showed the strongest inhibition rate against A. panax, which showed 83.70% inhibition, and it also provided broad-spectrum antifungal effects. The inhibition efficacies of the SZ-22 bacterial suspension against ginseng black spot reached 82.47% inhibition, which is significantly higher than that of the 25% suspension concentrate azoxystrobin fungicide treatment (p < 0.05). Moreover, the SZ-22 bacterial suspension also caused ginseng plant growth promotion as well as root enhancement. Conclusion: Although the results of the outdoor pot-culture method were influenced by the pathogen inoculum density, the cropping history of the field site, and the weather conditions, B. terrae SZ-22 controlled ginseng black spot and promoted ginseng growth successfully. This study provides resource for the biocontrol of ginseng black spot.

Physiological analysis of the physical exercise was made on 9 subjects performing mountain climbing. The course between two points (256 and 516 meters altitude) was 1,300 meters in distance and difference of vertical height was 260 meters making the mean grade of 20%. In the field, the heart rates during uphill or downhill walk were recorded by EKG radio-telemetry. In the laboratory, oxygen consumption was obtained by the recorded heart rates, using individual heart rate vs oxygen consumption diagram obtained by treadmill test. the following results were obtained. 1. Uphill walk time was 36.5 minutes, and during this period the mean heart rate was 149.0 heats/min and peak heart rate was 169.2 beats/min. The total heart beats during the uphill walk was 5.433 beats. 2. The ratio of individual mean heart rate during the uphill walk to the maximal heart rate distributed between 66.6% and 98.3%, and the mean of the total group was 83.1%. The ratio of peak heart rate of uphill walk to the maximal heart rate was 94.5% in the group. Thus uphill walk of a 20% grade mountain course was an exhaustive exercise. 3. Oxygen consumption during uphill walk was 2.22 l/min (ranged between 1.79 and 2.70 l/min) and the ratio of this to the resting oxygen consumption was 8.31. The peak value of oxygen consumption during uphill walk was 2.73 l/min and the ratio of this to the resting oxygen consumption was 10.39. 4. Energy expenditure during uphill walk showed a mean of 11.1 kcal/min and the peak expenditure rate was 13.6 kcal/min. The total energy expenditure during 36.5 minutes of uphill walk was 396 kcal. 5. In downhill walk, the time was 31.7 minutes, mean heart rate was 118.4 (ranged between 100.1 and 142.7) beats/min, and the peak heart rate was only 129.4 beats/min. The ratio of mean heart rate to the maximal heart rate was 66.3%. Total heart beats during downhill walk was 3,710 beats. The ratio of downhill oxygen consumption to the resting consumption was 5.70. The rate of energy expenditure was 7.5 kcal/min, and the total onery expenditure during the 31.7 minutes of downhill walk was 228 kcal. 6. The effect of training was manifest in the uphill walk and not in the downhill walk. After training in mountain course walk, i) the uphill time was shortened, ii) mean heart rate increased, iii) time vs heart rate curve became smooth and showed less frequent zig-zag, i.e., the depth of trough on the curve decreased and the magnitude was less than 10 beats. In non-trained subject the depth of trough on the curve was greater than 50 beats and appeared more frequently. 7. Mountain climbing is a good health promotion exercise. For the promotion of health the reasonable amount of uphill mountain walk exercise in a 20% grade course is a walk for 40 or 50 minutes duration once a week.

Spawning behavior and early life history of the tuman river sculpin, Cottus hangiongensis were studied in the laboratory and in the field at Wangpi Stream, Gyeongsangbuk-do, Korea, from January to December, 2007. The spawning ground was in the lower Wangpi Stream, which is a shallow region about 40cm or less in depth. During the spawning period, from March to April, mature males made nest cavities under stone 10 which they led a gravid female. The male and female then turned upside down, and spawning and fertilization occurred onto the ceiling of the nest cavity. After spawning, the male chased the female from the nest and mated with several other females. Fertilized eggs were spherical in shape, demersal, adhesive, transparent and yellow in color, measuring 1.86 mm (1.79~1.93 mm) in diameter. A mean of 17(12~22) various-sized oil globules were counted in the yolk. Granular materials formed a mass in the yolk. Fertilized eggs hatched at 256 hrs, 10 minutes after the morula stage under water temperature of $15.0{\sim}18.0^{\circ}C$. Newly hatched larvae 9.34 mm (9.02~9.69 mm. n=10) in total length (TL) had a large yolk At 14 days after hatching, larvae 11.40 mm (11.07~11.72 mm, n=10) in TL transformed to the postlarval stage. At 41 days after hatching, postlarvae of 18.42 mm (17.31~18.62 mm, n=10) in TL had reached the juvenile stage. The result of this study indicate that Cottus hangiongensis has the spawning ground in the lower stream and the amphidromous life history which is the different from that of Cottus poecilopus.

Pseudomonas fluorescens strain CL0145A was discovered at the New York State Museum Field Research Laboratory as an effective agent against the environmentally destructive zebra mussel, which has contaminated US waters. Dried cells of the microbe are being commercialized as an environmentally friendly solution to the problem. We found that antibiotic activity against the Gram-positive bacterium Bacillus subtilis is produced and excreted by this strain. We have carried out studies to optimize production of the antibiotic. Studies were begun in a complex corn meal medium. Activity was found in both cells and culture supernates and was maximal after one day of fermentation. Static fermentation conditions were found to be superior to shaken culture. Production of extracellular antibiotic in complex medium was found to be dependent on the content of sucrose and enzyme-hydrolyzed casein. Indeed, production was greater in sucrose plus enzyme-hydrolyzed casein than in the complex medium. Of a large number of carbon sources studied as improvements over sucrose, the best was glycerol. An examination of nitrogen sources showed that production was improved by replacement of enzyme-hydrolyzed casein with soy hydrolysates. Production in the simple glycerol-Hy-Soy medium was not improved by addition of an inorganic salt mixture or by complex nitrogen sources, with the exception of malt extract. In an attempt to keep the medium more defined, we studied the effect of amino acids and vitamins as replacements for malt extract. Of 21 amino acids and 7 vitamins, we found tryptophan, glutamine, biotin, and riboflavin to be stimulatory. The final medium contained glycerol, Hy-Soy, tryptophan, glutamine, biotin, and riboflavin.

Endophytic fungi are little known for their role in gibberellins (GAs) synthesis and abiotic stress resistance in crop plants. We isolated 10 endophytes from the roots of field-grown soybean and screened their culture filtrates (CF) on the GAs biosynthesis mutant rice line - Waito-C. CF bioassay showed that endophyte GMH-1B significantly promoted the growth of Waito-C compared with controls. GMH-1B was identified as Penicillium minioluteum LHL09 on the basis of ITS regions rDNA sequence homology and phylogenetic analyses. GC/MS-SIM analysis of CF of P. minioluteum revealed the presence of bioactive $GA_4$ and $GA_7$. In endophyte-soybean plant interaction, P. minioluteum association significantly promoted growth characteristics (shoot length, shoot fresh and dry biomasses, chlorophyll content, and leaf area) and nitrogen assimilation, with and without sodium chloride (NaCl)-induced salinity (70 and 140 mM) stress, as compared with control. Field-emission scanning electron microcopy showed active colonization of endophyte with host plants before and after stress treatments. In response to salinity stress, low endogenous abscisic acid and high salicylic acid accumulation in endophyte-associated plants elucidated the stress mitigation by P. minioluteum. The endophytic fungal symbiosis of P. minioluteum also increased the daidzein and genistein contents in the soybean as compared with control plants, under salt stress. Thus, P. minioluteum ameliorated the adverse effects of abiotic salinity stress and rescued soybean plant growth by influencing biosynthesis of the plant's hormones and flavonoids.

몰입은 관람객이 콘텐츠를 관람할 때 관람객들이 콘텐츠에 몰두하고 있는 심리적 상태를 의미하는 것으로, 관람객의 몰입경험은 콘텐츠의 만족도에 긍정적인 영향을 미친다. 따라서 공연 같은 콘텐츠를 제공하는 기업들은 콘텐츠의 흥행을 위해 관람객의 몰입도를 측정하는 것은 매우 중요하다. 설문 등의 표본조사 방법을 통해 관람객의 몰입도를 측정 연구는 방송분야 등 에서 널리 사용되고 있다. 이러한 몰입도 측정방법은 콘텐츠 관람 이후 설문을 실시하기 때문에 몰입도를 실시간으로 측정할 수 없을 뿐만 아니라 몰입도 측정의 정확성이 저하되는 문제 등이 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 생리적 반응이나 얼굴 표정 분석, 그리고 움직임 관찰 방법 등을 이용하여 몰입도를 측정하는 연구가 수행되고 있다. 생체 신호를 이용하여 몰입도를 측정하는 연구의 경우, 1인을 대상으로 생체신호를 측정할 뿐만 아니라, 많은 데이터 처리 시간과 비용이 소모되는 단점이 있어 많은 관람객이 관람하는 공연장에 적용하기에는 한계가 있다. 얼굴 표정인식 통해 몰입도를 측정하는 경우도 1인을 대상으로 하고 있으며, 밝은 조명의 실험실 환경에서만 가능하다는 단점이 존재한다. 또한 관람객들의 움직인 동기화를 이용하여 몰입도를 특정한 연구는 다중관객을 대상으로 하였지만, 이는 실험실 환경에 한정하여 적용된 사례이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 공연장, 시사회관 등 많은 관람객들이 콘텐츠를 관람하는 실제 환경에서 다중관람객이 다중몰입도의 정량적 평가를 위한 시스템을 설계하고 개발하였다. 제안된 시스템은 외부장치, 서버, 내부장치 등의 3부분으로 구성되어 있다. 서울시 마포구 상암동에 위치한 DMC 홍보관에 상설 전시장으로 운영하고 있으며, 관람객들을 대상으로 데이터를 획득하고 있다. 제안하고 있는 시스템을 활용하면 콘텐츠의 어느 구간에서 관객들이 몰입을 하고 있는지, 어느 구간에서 몰입을 하고 있지 못한지 분석가능하기 때문에, 향후 콘텐츠 제작 및 마케팅에 유용하게 활용할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

배경: 혈액제제 내에 혼입된 백혈구로 발생하는 부작용을 예방하기 위해서 백혈구필터를 이용한 백혈구의 제거가 널리 이용되고 있다. 그러나 상용 백혈구 필터로는 이식편대숙주병을 예방하기에는 충분한 백혈구제거가 되지 않아 고가의 기기를 이용한 방사선 조사를 시행하고 있는 실정이다. 한편 항체를 대체하는 압타머를 이용한 기술들이 활발히 개발되어 임상에 사용되기 시작하고 있다. 이에 백혈구에 결합하는 압타머를 이용한 압타머필터를 개발 하여 그 효율과 임상적용 가능성을 평가하고자 하였다. 방법: 포항공대 압타머사업단에 CD45항원에 결합하는 압타머 선별을 의뢰하여 제공받았으며 이를 비드에 부착시켜 백혈구와 결합하도록 한 후 자석을 이용해 제거하는 형식의 압타머필터를 개발하였다. 대한적십자사 혈액원에서 제공받은 백혈구제거적혈구 14단위에 압타머필터를 사용하여 잔여 백혈구를 제거한 후 백혈구 제거율과 적혈구 회수율, 세균배양을 시행하였다. 결과: 압타머필터 후 백혈구는 45.6%가 제거되었으며 92.8%의 적혈구회수율을 보였다. 세균배양에서는 아무것도 자라지 않았다. 결론: 압타머를 이용한 세포제거 기술을 혈액 필터에 적용하고자 CD45항원에 결합하는 압타머를 발굴하여 비드에 부착한 후 수혈 혈액을 필터링함으로써 해당 항원을 가진 세포 즉 백혈구를 제거하도록 하는 압타머필터를 개발하여 이를 평가하였다. 향후 압타머 부착 효율 및 필터과정 개선, 다른 항원에 대한 압타머 적용 등을 통해 혈액제제에서 백혈구 제거율을 높여 이식편대숙주병 예방을 위한 방사선조사를 대체하는 등 임상에 적용할 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

양파의 재배적 요인과 저장 조건에 따른 수확 전 후 특성을 조사하여, 이들 요인간의 상호적 관계에 대해 구명하고자 하였다. 본 연구에서는 양파 품종 이외의 수확전 재배환경과 같은 가변적 요인이 저장 특성과 가공 시에 미치는 영향을 조사하고자, '카스(Kars)' 등의 품종을 이용하여 재배기간 중의 토양 과습과 차광 처리에 의한 재배조건 차이에 따른 생육 차이를 조사하였으며, 수확후 상온($22^{\circ}C$)과 저온($0^{\circ}C$)으로 저장온도를 달리하여 저장 동안의 생체중량 감소와 호흡을 관측하였으며, 저장 후 가공 시 신선편이의 미생물 수, electrolyte leakage, 가스조성 변화 등을 관찰하였다. 양파 저장 시 수확후에 품종뿐만 아니라 수확전 재배조건과 같이 가변적인 요인이 영향을 미치는 것을 확인하였는데, 양파는 재배 시 토양 과습과 차광 처리가 생육에 영향을 미쳐 생육량이 감소하고, 세포조직은 크기가 커지고 엉성한 구조를 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 본 연구의 결과를 통해 재배환경의 차이가 생육뿐만 아니라 수확후에도 영향을 미쳐 생체중량 감소 및 호흡량의 증가로 이어짐을 밝혔는데, 양파 저장 중의 토양 과습과 차광 처리 한 양파의 생체중 변화와 호흡률이 대조구보다 더 높은 것으로 나타났으며, 저장 온도에서는 저온($0^{\circ}C$)뿐만 아니라 상온($22^{\circ}C$)에서 저장한 것도 재배조건의 영향을 받는 것으로 보였다. 본 연구에서 신선편이의 보존 중 변화는 수확전 재배환경보다 저장조건이 더 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으나, 재배 후 저장과정을 달리한 신선편이 양파는 측정항목에 따라 영향이 다르게 보였다. 신선편이의 electrolyte leakage나 미생물 수는 재배조건 보다는 최소 가공전의 저장온도에 더 영향을 받아 저온($0^{\circ}C$) 저장한 것이 electrolyte leakage가 높고 미생물수가 많았다. 그러나 가스 조성 변화나 이취는 재배조건이나 저장온도에 따른 영향을 확인하기 어려워 보였다. 향후 신선편이에서 가공 전 영향에 대해서는 지속적인 탐색과 포장 후 품질관리를 통해 효과적인 상품성의 유지를 위한 방법을 밝힐 필요가 있을 것으로 본다. 본 연구를 통해 양파의 품종, 재배환경, 저장조건 등이 수확후나 신선편이에 미치는 영향을 구명하여, 수확전 재배 단계에서부터, 수확후 저장, 가공까지 유기적 관계가 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 따라서 고품질의 신선한 원예산물에 대한 요구가 높아져 수확후 관리의 중요성이 강조되고 있지만, 저장 이후에도 높은 품질을 유지하기 위해서는 수확후 관리는 원물에 대한 이해를 통해 수확전 재배환경에서부터 수확후 저장기술 등이 연계되어 관리되어야 한다는 인식의 변화와 정론(定論)이 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

팔당호 식물플랑크톤의 제한영양염과 생리학적 성장 특성을 평가하기 위하여 2002년 3월부터 10일까지 팔당호의 수질환경 조사와 함께 실내 배양실험을 실시하였다. 총인의 농도와 Chl. a의 상관성 분석결과, 팔당호의 호수생산성은 인의 영향을 많이 받으며 TN/TP ratio와 식물플랑크톤의 성장잠재력 실험을 통해서도 제한영양염은 인으로 평가되었다. 특히, 봄철이 다른 계절에 비해 상대적으로 용존무기인이 낮은 농도로 존재하기 때문에 높은 인 제한을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 인의 제한정도는 계절적인 변이를 나타내었으며, 시기에 따라 질소와 규소에 의한 제한가능성도 나타났다. 팔당호 식물플랑크톤 군집의 최대성장률(${\mu}_{max}$)은 0.8${\sim}$l.1$day^1$의 범위로 나타났으며, 반포화농도($K_u$)는 0.1${\sim}$O.8${\mu}M$로 5월에 $0.8{\mu}M$로 가장 높고 9월에 $0.1{\mu}M$로 가장 낮은 것으로 조사되었다. 이는 영양염 흡수에 영향을 미치는 인의 cell quota와 관련이 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 5월에 $0.13{\mu}gP/{\mu}gChl.$ 3로 낮은 값을 나타냈다. 식물플랑크톤의 성장특성 분석을 통해 팔당호에서는 봄에 비해 여름과 가을철에 발생한 식물플랑크톤의 성장이 경쟁적으로 빠르게 발달할 수 있는 잠재성이 있는 것으로 판단된다. 결과적으로, 팔당호 식물플랑크톤 성장은 주로 인에 의하여 제한되며 여름 몬순 이후 수체의 안정기동안 높은 성장을 할 수 있는 생리적 특성을 가지고 있는 것으로 추정된다.
