The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of artificial light sources on the germination and seedling vigor of lettuce, aiming to identify the optimal artificial light source for producing high-quality seedlings. Lettuce cultivar of 'Tomalin' and 'Seonpunggold' exhibited the highest seed emergence in the Metal halide(MH) lamp and High-pressure sodium(HPS) lamp treatment group, while the emergence rate parameter, T50, was the fastest in the HPS lamp treatment group. Both cultivars showed good growth characteristics such as number of leaves, root length, and stem diameter under RGB-LED, and their seedling vigor was excellent as well. The plant height was smallest in the Red + Green + Blue LED treatment, but the leaves were round and thick, resulting in higher biomass and dry weight. Single light sources of Red LED and Blue LED led to reduced growth compared with that under the mixed light treatments. Chlorophyll content in lettuce varied with the type of artificial light, with both cultivars exhibiting the highest chlorophyll content in the Red + Green + Blue LED treatment. The most suitable artificial light for lettuce seedling growth was the Red + Green + Blue LED treatment.

Since the size effect law announced currently has been based on the normal weight concrete, for light weight concrete having different fracture characteristics, its application is questionable. Accordingly, in this study, a model equation to predict the effect of dried unit weight of the concrete on size effect of its compressive strength was developed and a database using existing research results was created. After determining the experimental constants of prediction models of Ba${\check{z}}$ant based on nonlinear fracture mechanics, Kim and Eo, and this study using the database, their results are mutually compared. Finally, it was found that the prediction model of this study considered dried unit weight of concrete predicted well the test results for light weight concrete than that of the models of Ba${\check{z}}$ant and Kim and Eo.

This study compared lipid oxidation and color stability of M. longissimus from five Korean native black barrows (66 kg average weight; KNP) and modern genotype barrows ($Landrace{\times}Yorkshire{\times}Duroc$, 112 kg average weight, MGP) during light exposure in a refrigerated shop display. The meat samples were aged at $1^{\circ}C$ for 5 days and either kept in the dark, or under light of flux 3,000 lux, at $4^{\circ}C$ for 7 days. The KNPs contained larger amounts of fat than did MGPs (p<0.05), but KNPs had lower $C_{14:0},\;Cl_{8:3},\;and\;C_{20:5}$ contents than did MGPs (p<0.05). The pH of KNP was lower than that of MGP, and increased more rapidly upon exposure to light. The TBARS assay showed that oxidized lipid levels increased more rapidly in KNP than in MGP, and this accumulation was accelerated by exposure to light. The KNP was always a darker red in color than was MGP, and the color deteriorated more rapidly in the light than in the dark. The sensory attributes of raw pork were reduced by exposure to light, but KNP showed higher sensory attributes than did MGP. Compared to the MGP, the KNP showed greater color stability under light, retained desired sensory attributes under light longer, but showed a lower lipid oxidation stability under light. Overall, light exposure accelerated lipid oxidation in and discoloration of pork.

This study investigated the effects of light intensity on growth performance, blood components, eye condition, and carcass characteristics of broiler chickens. Three hundred and fifty-two 1-day-old male chicks were assigned to one of four treatments (four repetitions per treatment, 22 birds per repetition) and reared in a floor pen for 5 weeks. From the second week, chicks were reared under four different levels of light intensity (5, 20, 35, and 50 lx) and the lighting duration was maintained at 18-hours light : 6-hours dark (18L : 6D). The feed intake and body weight were measured weekly. At 35 days of age, 12 birds per treatment were randomly selected for blood sampling, eye measurement, and carcass analysis. There were no significant differences in body weight gain, feed intake, and feed conversion ratio among treatments. Triglyceride levels in the serum were significantly higher in the 5 lx treatment, and creatinine was significantly lower in the 5 lx treatment (p < 0.05). The heterophil : lymphocyte ratios decreased significantly as light intensity increased (p < 0.05); however, other blood cell compositions were not affected by light intensity. Interleukin-6 content was significantly higher in the 5 lx treatment than in other treatments (p < 0.05), but the content of tumor necrosis factor-α was not significantly different among treatments. Serum corticosterone concentration was significantly higher at 5 lx than at 20, 35, and 50 lx (p < 0.05). The corneal diameter was the highest in 5 lx treatment (p < 0.05), and tended to increase as the light intensity decreased. Other eye parameters were not significantly different among treatments, but displayed a tendency to increase as the light intensity decreased. Carcass yield and part yields were not affected by light intensity. Meat quality parameters (pH, color, cooking loss, and water-holding capacity) did not show significant difference among the treatments. The results indicate that a light intensity of 5 lx may increase physiological stress or have a negative effect on broiler welfare, even if the performance and carcass characteristics are not affected. Therefore, a light intensity of 20 lx or above is recommended considering both the growth performance and welfare of broilers.

This study was conducted to light intensity and night interruption on leaf production in perilla. Using two cultivars ; og-dong and Yeup-sil. The present studies were conducted to investigate effect of the light intensity and night interruption for prolongation of vegetative growth by flowering inhibition in the National Honam Crop Experiment Station, R. D. A, Iri, Korea. The results are summarized as followes, varietal differences of days to flower initiation were not significant by the light intensity and night interruption, however differences of days to flower initiation light intensity or night interruption treatment were higly significant. Flowering of perilla was prolongated in high light intensity and in long night interruption. Between the factors treated flowering of perilla was more influenced by light intensity than night interruption. Days to flower initiation of perilla were light intensity(0.5∼1 Lux) in 30 mins night interruption, however 3∼10 light intensity in 60 mins night interruption and 30∼100 Lux light intensity in 10, 30, 60 mins night interruption treatment were not flowering. Plant height, leaf area and dry weight of perilla were the highest in 30∼100 Lux light intensity treatment than in the other treatments. The results would be avaliable establish year-round production methods for low cost of perilla leaf.

The action spectrum for light-induced growth of fruit body in Pleurotus ostreatus has been studied by irradiation at various wavelengths. Effective wavelengths were distributed from near ultraviolet to blue region of spectrum. The most effect of light was observed in the region between 340 to 520 nanometers. The growth weigth obtained from which has been irradiated 144 hours in the region of 340-520 nm increases 74%, on the contrary the observed growth weight has been observed in the longer wavelengths than 620 nm. The pileus size was promoted 30$\times$32% in the region of 340-500 nm, and retarded 22$\times$19% in the dark. the strip length was rearded 12% in the region of 340-500 nm, and promoted 38% in the dark. The color thickness for pileus is getting light in longer wavelengths.

The taxonomic characteristics of Eupatorium rugosum were reviewed and growth responses under different light intensities were investigated. Changes of soil and vegetation environments at experimental plots on Mt. Namsan were surveyed and the distribution pattern examined. The distribution of E. rugosum was closely related to the content of total nitrogen and available phosphorus in the soil. No competitors which could inhibit the growth of E. rugosum were present. Growth of E. rugosum was highest at a light intensity of 7, 500 lux, but dry weight was highest at a light intensity of 15, 000 lux followed by 30, 000 and 7, 500 lux. Growth in height of E. rugosum under a light intensity of 1, 500 lux continued even though the amount of growth was small. E. rugosum is found throughout the area of Mt. Namsan, and its density is higher at the roadside and in valley regions. E. rugosum appeared at 25 of 50 quadrats on Mt. Namsan, and the mean coverage of E. rugosum in survey quadrats was 12%.

Thc effect of light and phylohormonc on the belalaln synthesis was tested using the suspension culture of a rod(bclalaln produulng) cell line from Phytolacca esculenta V. Houtte. Betalain synthesis of rod-cell 1ine was strongly dependent on the irradiation of blue light, but induced by hormone, IAA and/or kinetin, in dark conditions. In a light condition, however, 2 mg/l of IAA increased the betalain content about 30% (per gram fresh weight), whereas more than 0.5mg/l of kinetin remarkably decreased. The hairy root derived from the same plant was also observed for the blue light-dependent pigmentation in the root-tips. When the hairy root grown in dark was transferred to the light condition, the accumulation of betalain was initiated after 12hours. Such pigmentation was completely inhabited by addition of a protein synthesis inhibitor.
