  • In order to establish the basic data for the growth of fish in the aquaculture industry, the behavior analysis of rockfish (Sebastes inermis) depending on the temperature and LED lights was conducted. In this study, water temperatures were set from $3^{\circ}C$ to $30^{\circ}C$ were used. One red light (wave length: 622 nm; light power: 811 mW) and one green lights (wave length: 518 nm; light power: 648 mW) were used. Behavior of the rockfish was expressed as average moving distance (AMD) for 1 minutes and a rate of movement. The mean AMD depending on the temperature was 1.0 m and the mean rates of movement was 50%. The mean AMD were 1.5 m, 1.9 m and 0.7 m in the red LED light, green LED light and control condition respectively. The mean rates of movement were 54%, 65% and 45% in the red LED light, green LED light and control condition respectively.

  • Paecilomyces japonica is widely cultured to produce mycelium for medicinal and health food use. Illumination is an important factor in the growth and production of mycelium in submerged culture. The effects of different light-emitting diode (LED) combinations on the growth and cordycepin content as bioactive substances of mycelium were investigated. The results showed that the mycelium dry weights were lower under dark condition and red LED treatments. Dark condition, fluorescent light, and ultraviolet-A failed to increase the cordycepin content. Blue light was necessary to increase the cordycepin content, and a red-to-blue ratio of 3:7 induced the highest cordycepin content. The cordycepin contents of mycelium in submerged culture were significantly higher in a 12 h/day illumination time under red and blue (red-to-blue ratio of 3:7) LED treatments, showing an increase of up to 38% compared with those under the fluorescent-light control condition. The results demonstrated the roles of light with different wavelengths on the biosynthesis of cordycepin as bioactive substances. The low-heat release and replacement of traditional fluorescent lights with low-energy-consuming LEDs could increase the contents of bioactive substances. After optimization of the cordycepin production using response surface methodology (Box-Behnken design) to its canonical form, the optimum combination was found to be as follows: illumination time = 17.7 h/day, sugar content in the medium = 9.7 g/50 mL, and incubation time = 61.2 h. The model predicted a maximum response of 3779.2 ㎍/mL cordycepin yield.

  • Here we report the long-term stability of polymer:nonfullerene solar cells which were stored under dark and indoor light condition. The polymer:nonfullerene solar cells were fabricated using bulk heterojunction (BHJ) layers of poly[(2,6-(4,8-bis(5-(2-ethylhexyl) thiophen-2-yl)-benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b']dithiophene))-alt-(5,5-(1',3'-di-2-thienyl-5',7-bis(2-ethylhexyl)benzo[1',2'-c:4',5'-c']dithiophene-4,8-dione))] (PBDB-T) and 3,9-bis(6-methyl-2-methylene-(3-(1,1-dicyanomethylene)-indanone))-5,5,11,11-tetrakis(4-hexylphenyl)-dithieno[2,3-d:2',3-d']-s-indaceno[1,2-b:5,6-b']dithiophene (IT-M). To investigate their long-term stability, the PBDB-T:IT-M solar cells were stored in an argon-filled glove box. One set of the fabricated solar cells was completely covered with an aluminum foil to prevent any effect of light, whereas another set was exposed to indoor light. The solar cells were subjected to a regular performance measurement for 40 weeks. Results revealed that the PBDB-T:IT-M solar cells underwent a gradual decay in performance irrespective of the storage condition. However, the PBDB-T:IT-M solar cells stored under indoor light condition exhibited relatively lower power conversion efficiency (PCE) than those stored under the dark. The inferior stability of the solar cells under indoor light was explained by the noticeably changed optical absorption spectra and dark spot generation, indicative of degradations in the BHJ layers.

  • This study is conducted to analyze effects of soil moisture on the growth of maple(Acer palmatum) under indoor low light intensity. Maples grew under three different light intensities such as sunny place(average 353.2W/$m^2$), half shade(average 7.7 W/$m^2$) and shade/(average 1.9W/$m^2$).Under half shady and shady condition, each 24 planters(2 maples planted in each planter) were used and divided into 3 groups treated with different watering points. Three levels of soil water potential were set for watering points, such as -200mbar, -300mbar or -500mbar. Under sunny condition, there were only group of 8 planters, as comparison. Watering was applied when soil water potentials reached -500maber. The results of plant growth experiment are as followed. 1. Under the shady condition, 32 maples died among 48 maples for 7 months. 9 maples survived, watered at soil water potential -200mbar, 5maples at -300mbar and 2maples at -500mbar. 2. Leaf water content ratios were higher under lower light intensity. For the cell wall became thinner under lower light intensity. 3. Maples in shady were easy to die due to having thin cell wall, therefore they were easy to loss the turgor pressure. 4. In case of half shady condition, the group, watered at soil water potential -200mbar, had much smaller amount of rootlet than -300mbar, because there were excessive soil water. The group, watered at soil water potential -500mbar, had smaller amount of rootlet than -300mbar and there was a remarkable difference in leaf water potential in spite of nearly same soil water potential, because leaves received the water stress under lower soil water potential. 5. When maples grew soundly, the leaf water potential was largely influenced by the soil water potential.

  • This experiment was conducted to find out the method of preventing decrease in the marketable yield of oriental melon (Cucumis melo L. var. makuwa MAKINO) under low light intensity. By maintaining low light of 400 $\mu$mol$.$m$^{[-10]}$ 2$.$S$^{-1}$ from 10 days after fruit set to fruit enlargement period, the photosynthetic rate and chlorophyll contents of leaf were reduced. Leaves which had no urea application showed largely decreased photosynthetic rate The content of soluble solids was lower$.$ in the low light than natural light treatment. Regardless of foliar application of urea, % fermentation fruits was under 4% in the natural light treatment and over 10% in the low light treatment. The less the fruit thinning, the greater was % fermentation fruits under low light condition. The % fermentation fruits were 39% and 40% in no fruit thinning treatment. The harvest was delayed under low light condition regardless of foliar fertilization. As the number of thinned fruits was decreased, the harvest time was delayed more. Marketable yield per plant sharply decreased under low light intensity. Compared with natural light, the yield under low light treatment was 16∼34%. The treatment fertilized with 0.5% urea on leaf had 34% greater harvest index of marketable yield than other treatments. In conclusion, when the long low light condition from 10th day after fruiting was forecasted, thinning two fruits out of six fruits and two times foliar fertilization with 0.5% urea should be applied.

  • Changes of chlorophyll fluorescence and xanthophyll cycle pigment contents in maize leaves were investigated dunng desiccation in darkness or in the light. In darkness, a drastic dehydration of detached maize leaves down to 50% relative water content (RWC) affected photochemical efficiency of photosystem II (Fv/Fm) and pht)tochemical quenching (qP) only slightly. In contrast, desiccation in the light with a moderate intensity led to a pronounced reduction in Fv/Fm with a Fo quenching when RWC was greater than 70%. This reduction in Fv/Fm could be recovered in darkness under hutrod condition. In leaves with RWC below 70%, significant reduction in Fv/Fm was accompanied by an increase of Fo, which could not be reversed within 5 h in darkness under humid condition. The nonphotochemical quenching increased during desiccation in the light with a concomitant rise in zeaxanthin at the expense of violaxanthin. Pretreatment with dithiothreitol (DTT), an inhibitor of zeaxanthin synthesis, inhibited the development of nonphotochemical quenching and prevented the xanthophyll interconversion during desiccation in the light. These results suggest that even light with a moderate intensity becomes excessive under dehydration and zeaxanthin-associated photoprotection of photosynthetic apparatus against photodamage is involved, but the protection is not complete against severe desiccation.

  • Characteristic growth patterns of Cordyceps militaris isolates on various media, under varying light conditions and at varying incubation periods were examined. Light was found to be the most critical single factor in determining the density, texture, and pigmentation of the mycelial culture of the fungus. However, under the light condition, the degree of pigmentation and mycelial density were found to be affected by the incubation period and type of medium. Irrespective of the variations in medium type or incubation period, there was no pigmentation of the mycelium under dark condition. Radial growth of the mycelium was faster under dark incubation rather than under light incubation. Abundant mycelial density and darkest pigmentation of C. militaris isolates were produced in nutritionally rich media like SDAY, SMAY and CZYA, suggesting that these media may fulfill all the requirements for vegetative growth of the fungus. Growth characteristics of C. militaris isolates could be easily observed by the simple agar culture method, which would be useful to characterize the phenotypic characteristics of large number of pure cultures of the fungus under given conditions of growth factors such as medium, light and temperature.
