A radioprotective ginseng protein fraction was obtained from Korean white ginseng powder by the following isolation and purification procedures: Tris-HCI buffer extraction, 70% ammonium sulfate fractionation, CM-rellulosr column chromatography, heat inactivation and Sephadex G-75 column chromatography. This fraction was further purified by Sepharose 4B and Sephadex G-150 column chromatographies. Three fractions obtained were subjected to Native-PAGE and SDS-PAGE using gradient gels and the silver staining method. Molecular weights of the native proteins and their subunits were estimated.

Effect of ginseng hairy and native roots on body absorption, fecal and urinary excretion of Ingested radiostrontium were investigated in the mouse(NIH-strain, male) treated with or without pre-feeding of each ginseng soluble fraction. The test groups were fed with basic diet supplemented with 1% each ginseng soluble fraction for 7 darts before the radiostrontium were administered by intragastric intubation. In the groups of treated with soluble fraction from ginseng hairy roots, the radioactivities of fecal and urinary excretion increased about 15% over than that of control groups and the whole body retention were about 38%. In the groups of treated with soluble fraction from native ginseng roots, the radioactivities of fecal and urinary excretion increased about 25% over than that of control groups and the whole body retention were about 28%. Also, the levels of radiostrontium accumulation retained significantly the higher percent in skeletons than in other organs.

Trace metals in honey have an influence on the taste of honey along with pollens. Western bee honeys, which are mostly collected from acacia, have less than 0.1% of ash. Savor of Korean native-bee honey is thought to be due to the difference of the contents of trace metals. Korean native-bee honeys collected from Jirisan District, which is the greatest producing area of native-bee honey in Korea, showed high contents of ash. Korean native-bee honeys from the districts other than Jirisan District also showed similar results($0.44{\sim}0.83%$ of ash) to those from Jirisan District. Potassium was found to be the principal factor of high content of ash with over 85% of trace metals in ash.

Background: Korean ginseng (Panax ginseng Meyer) is a perennial herb prone to various root diseases, with Phytophthora cactorum being considered one of the most dreaded pathogens. P. cactorum causes foliar blight and root rot. Although chemical pesticides are available for disease control, attention has been shifted to viable, eco-friendly, and cost-effective biological means such as plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) for control of diseases. Methods: Native Bacillus amyloliquefaciens strain HK34 was isolated from wild ginseng and assessed as a biological control agent for ginseng. Leaves from plants treated with HK34 were analyzed for induced systemic resistance (ISR) against P. cactorum in square plate assay. Treated plants were verified for differential expression of defense-related marker genes using quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. Results: A total of 78 native rhizosphere bacilli from wild P. ginseng were isolated. One of the root-associated bacteria identified as B. amyloliquefaciens strain HK34 effectively induced resistance against P. cactorum when applied as soil drench once (99.1% disease control) and as a priming treatment two times in the early stages (83.9% disease control). A similar result was observed in the leaf samples of plants under field conditions, where the percentage of disease control was 85.6%. Significant upregulation of the genes PgPR10, PgPR5, and PgCAT in the leaves of plants treated with HK34 was observed against P. cactorum compared with untreated controls and only pathogen-treated plants. Conclusion: The results of this study indicate HK34 as a potential biocontrol agent eliciting ISR in ginseng against P. cactorum.

Ginseng Is renowned for both its medicinal and herbal uses and successful cultivation of Panax ginseng in Asia and Panax quinquefolium in North America has until recently taken place in the native geographical ranges of the plants. As a consequence of the potential high capital return and anticipated increases in consumer consumption, commercial cultivation of American ginseng now occurs well outside the native range of the plant in North America. In fact, the region of greatest expansion of cultivation is in the semi-arid interior region of British Columbia, Canada. Linked with this expansion is the potential domination of the ginseng industry by agricultural corporations. In the interior of British Columbia, the native deciduous forest environment of eastern North America is simulated with elevated polypropylene shade and a surface covering of straw mulch. The architecture of these environments is designed to permit maximum machinery usage and to minimize labor requirements. Further, with only a four- years growth cycle, plant densities in the gardens are high. In this hot, semi-arid environment, producers believe they have a competitive advantage over other regions in North America because of the low precipitation rates. This helps to minimize atmospheric humidity such that the conditions for fungal disease development are reduced. If soil moisture level become limited, supplemental water can be provided by irrigation. The nature of the radiation and energy balance regimes of the shade and many environments promotes high soil moisture levels. Also, the modified environment redlines soil heating. This can result in an aerial environment for the plant that is stressful and a rooting zone environment that is suloptimal. The challenge of further refining the man modified environment for enhanced plant growth and health still remains. Keywords Panax ginseng, Panax quinquefolium, cultivation, ginseng production.

The nature of the radiation and energy balance regimes of the shade and much environment promotes high soil moistilre levels. Also, the modified environment reduces soil heating. This can result in an aerial environment for the plant that is stressful and a rooting zone environment that is sub-optimal. The challenge of further refining the man modified environment for enhanced plant growth and health still remains.

American ginseng (Panax quinquefolium L.) is one of the most widely used medicinal herbs in the world. It is indigenous to North America and was used by native North Americans long before the arrival of Europeans in the New World.(omitted)

Gel filtration과 ion exchange chromatography, reversed-phase 및 ion exchange FPLC를 이용하여 고려인삼 뿌리에서 subunit 분자량 약 25 kDa의 주요단백질(이하 GMP)을 분리하였다. PAS 염색을 통하여 GMP는 carbohydrate moiety를 갖는 당단백질일 가능성을 보여주었고, 이는 glycosidase 처리후 protein band shift 실험으로 확인되었다. GMP는 native polyacrylamide 전기영동 및 gel permeation FPLC를 통해 native form은 약 63 kDa의 분자량을 갖는 dimer로 판단된다. GMP의 생리활성 측정결과, inflammation mediator의 기능탐색에 쓰이는 anticomplementary activity를 보여주었다.

국내 수집 재래종 인삼과 기존육성품종과의 유전적 연관을 통해 풍기지역 고유의 재래인삼 특성을 구명하고 지리적 표시제 및 신품종 육성을 위한 자료로 활용하기 위하여 수행한 결과는 다음과 같다. 유전적 연관 분석에서 가장 먼 것으로 분류된 풍기지역 수집종 331002 등 5점과 금산지역 수집종 332009 등 5점간의 형태적 특성을 비교한바 풍기 재래종 인삼의 경수는 1~2개로 금산지역 수집종과 차이가 없었으나, 장엽수, 경색, 엽병색, 소엽 모양에서는 금산지역 수집종과 차이를 보였다. 즉 풍기 재래종은 장엽수가 5개이고 소엽 모양이 타원형이며, 경색과 엽병색이 자색, 연자색, 진자색 등 다양한 것이 특징적이었다. 특히 유전적 연관에서 풍기지역 수집종 중 331002, 331005, 331007 및 331026은 함께 grouping 되었지만 331002는 대비 품종인 천풍과 99.5%에서 함께 group지어져 있었다. 특히 331002 등 이 3개의 풍기 수집종은 기존 품종과 유전적 차이를 나타내보였다. 이를 통해 풍기 수집종 331002, 331005, 331007은 국내 재래종에서 순계분리법으로 선발된 기존육성품종과는 유전적 차이가 있음을 알 수 있었다. 특히 331007은 농가 조사에서 나타난 주요 특성을 모두 갖추고 있어 풍기 재래인삼의 고유 특성을 가진 것으로 추측 되었다. 본 연구를 통해 풍기지역 재래 인삼의 주요 형태적 특성을 확인하였고, 유전적인 면에서도 타 지역 수집종과 기존육성품종과도 구분되어짐을 확인하였다. 더불어 선발된 OPD05 등 9개의 prime는 경수 1개, 장엽수 5개, 소엽 모양은 타원형, 경색과 엽병색이 자색계열인 특성을 지닌 풍기 재래인삼을 구분하는데 유용하게 활용될 수 있어서 인삼 유전자원의 특성 구분 및 품종개량에 유익하게 활용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
