완전제어형 식물공장하에서 인공광원에 따른 결구상추의 생육, 잎끝마름증과 배양액속의 무기이온 변화를 검토하고자 본 실험을 수행하였다. 인공광원에 따른 지상부 생체중과 건물중간의 유의적인 차이는 없었으나 전반적인 생육은 형광등에서 가장 낮게 나타났다. 인공광원중 생육과 램프의 경제성을 고려해 볼때, 고압나트륨등을 사용하는 것이 좋을 것으로 생각된다. 인공광원에 따른 잎끝마름증 발생시기는 정식 후 14일에 처음 발생하였으며, 발생부위는 자엽으로 부터 9∼10번째 잎이었다. 발생원인으로는 빠른 생장율과 상추의 칼륨흡수로 추정되었다. 그리고 인공광원에 따라 배양액속의 무기 성분 변화를 보면, 세처리구 모두 칼슘. 마그네슘, 구리와 아연 함량 등은 축적되는 경향을 보였으며, 전질소, 인, 철과 망간 함량등은 안정적이었다.

Soil acidification challenges global food security by adversely influences soil fertility and agricultural productivity. Carbonized agricultural residues present a sustainable and ecofriendly way to recycle agricultural waste and mitigate soil acidification. We evaluated the effects of organic amendments on lettuce growth and soil chemical properties in two soils with different pH levels. Carbonized rice husk was produced at 600℃ for 30 min and rice husk was treated at 1% (w·w^-1). Carbonized rice husk increased soil pH, electrical conductivity, total carbon content, and nitrogen content compared with untreated and rice husk treatments. Furthermore, this study found that lettuce growth positively correlated with soil pH, with increasing soil pH up to pH 6.34 resulting in improved lettuce growth parameters. Statistical correlation analysis also supported the relationship between soil pH and lettuce growth parameters. The study findings showed that the use of carbonized rice husk increased the constituent elements of lettuce, such as carbon, nitrogen, and phosphate content. The potassium content of lettuce followed a similar trend; however, was higher in acidic soil than that in non-acidic soil. Therefore, improving the pH of acidic soil is essential to enhance agricultural productivity. It is considered advantageous to use agricultural residues following pyrolysis to improve soil pH and agricultural productivity.

This study examines the effects of lightemitting diode (LED) light and temperature on lettuce growth. For plant growth, we used an LED bar composed of red, white and blue LEDs (4:1:2). Six types of cultivation equipment were used to measure the temperature. To compare their effects, the heights of the lettuces and the water temperatures were measured. The results demonstrated that the lettuce growth was optimal at $25^{\circ}C$.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of soil-born microorganism, vitabio on growth of leaf lettuce in the vinyl house. Total weights of leaf lettuce treated with vitabio showed difference compared with untreated leaf lettuce. Sugar content was also increased. Mineral contents of leaf lettuce showed no difference between treated with vitabio and untreated with vitabio. Exchange Capacity (EC) and Organic Matter (OM) in chemical properties of soil treated with vitabio showed higher than soil in untreated vitabio. Vitabio treated soil contained much more microorganisms such as Bacteria, Actinomycetes, Hyphomycetes, Bacillus sp. Pseudomonas sp. after harvest.

Effects of chemical treatment with a citric acid solution or ozonated water on microbiological changes in lettuce and cabbage during storage were studied. Fresh lettuce and cabbage samples were cut into small pieces and treated by soaking in either ozonated water or a citric acid solution. After treatment, populations of total bacteria, yeast and mold, and E. coli were determined. Numbers of microorganisms increased during storage, but ozonated water and citric acid treatments retarded the increase in microbial growth. Among treatments, 1 % citric acid treatment was the most effective in terms of microbiological change and inhibition of polyphenoloxidase (PPO). For lettuce, citric acid treatment decreased the microbial growth overall by 1.5 log CFU/g and inhibited the PPO activity by 80%. These results indicate that chemical-treated lettuce and cabbage retained a better quality than those of the control during storage.

Effects of aqueous chlorine dioxide ($ClO_2$) treatment on the microbial growth and the quality of iceberg lettuce during storage were examined. Lettuce samples were treated with 0, 5, 10, and 50 ppm of $ClO_2$ solution and stored at $4^{\circ}C$. Aqueous $ClO_2$ treatment significantly decreased the populations of total aerobic bacteria, yeasts and molds, and coliforms on the shredded lettuce. Fifty ppm $ClO_2$ treatment reduced the initial populations of total aerobic bacteria, yeasts and molds, and coliforms by 1.77, 1.34, 1.10 log CFU/g, respectively. Aqueous $ClO_2$ treatment caused negligible changes in the Hunter color L, a, and b values during storage. Sensory evaluations exhibited that there were no significant changes among treatments. These results indicate that the aqueous $ClO_2$ treatment can be useful in improving the microbial safety of the iceberg lettuce during storage and extending the shelf life.

Bacillus spp. and Saccharomyces spp. are effective microorganisms that are applied as microbial fertilizers for crops in Korea. Mixed organic fertilizer (MOF) has been used in the Korean organic agriculture to supply nutrients to crops. This study was conducted to investigate the effects of MOF containing Bacillus amyloliquefaciens HSOB-7 and Saccharomyces cerevisiae HSOB-8 (MOFBS) on the soil chemical properties and growth of lettuce (Lactuca sativa). Growth factors of lettuce were higher after applying different formulation types of MOFBS, such as powder and pellet, than those of NF, and not significantly different than those of control (microbe-free MOF). Compared with the control, application of recommended amount of MOFBS (MOFBS 250 kg/10a, MOFBS treatment) and double the recommended amount (MOFBS 500 kg/10a, 2MOFBS treatment) did not significantly change the growth factors of lettuce. After the application of two formulation types or two different amounts of MOFBS, soil chemical properties such as electrical conductivity, organic matter (OM), exchangeable Ca, and cation exchangeable cation (CEC) increased. These results indicated that although the application of MOFBS improved soil fertility including OM and CEC, it did not significantly affect lettuce growth.

Lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) is known to contain water-soluble substances that are biologically active. Aqueous or methanol extracts and residues from leaves of lettuce plants were assayed to determine their allelopathic effects, and the causative allelochemicals from fractions were quantified by means of HPLC analysis and bioassayed. Extracts from oven-dried leaf samples were more phytotoxic than those from freeze-dried samples. Leaf extracts of 40 g L$^{-1}$ were completely inhibitory on root growth of alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.), while root growths of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) and soybean (Glycine max L.) were less sensitive. Early seedling growth of both alfalfa and barnyard grass (Echinochloa crus-galli) was significantly reduced by methanol leaf extracts. The major allelopathic substances analyzed by HPLC were coumarin, trans-cinnamic acid, o-coumaric acid, p-coumaric acid and chlorogenic acid. Of them p-coumaric acid was found as the greatest amount (8.9 mg 100 g$^{-1}$ ) in the EtOAc fraction; only coumarin was found in all the fractions. Hexane and EtOAc fractions of L. sativa reduced alfalfa root growth more than did BuOH and water fractions. These results suggest that lettuce had potent herbicidal activity, and that its activity differed depending on type and amount of causative compounds by fraction.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of CO₂ supplement on growth and quality in greenhouse lettuce cultivation. When CO₂ was supplied at 1,500 ppm in lettuce cultivation, overall growth parameters such as number of leaves, leaf area, plant length, fresh weight, and dry weight were superior compared to those of the control group. While there was no significant difference in relative growth rate due to CO₂ supplement, an increase in leaf area index was observed with CO₂ usage. Furthermore, although there was no significant difference in the content of water-soluble vitamins such as Vitamin C, B1, B2, B5, and B6 due to CO₂ supplement, the Vitamin B3 content in the CO₂ treatment group was 0.5 mg/kg higher than in the control group. Therefore, the use of CO₂ in lettuce cultivation resulted in increased yield and promoted growth, enabling early harvesting.

Growth responses of lettuce seeds germinated in aqueous solutions of $SO_2$ were investigated for mode of action studies of this gas. The concentration and pH of $SO_2$ solution greatly affected the growth of germinating seeds. Root growth was more sensitive to $SO_2$ than hypocotyl growth. The sensitivity of total seedling growth lay between root and hypocotyl growth. Growth inhibition of germinating seeds appeared more serioius when $SO_2$ was added during the early stage of germination.
