A survey was carried out to understand and analyze the characteristics of the symptoms of musculoskeletal disorders among farmers of pears, grapes, cucumbers, eggplants and various vegetables. One hundred and forty farmers participated in the study. It was found that task characteristics differ according to crops and the gender of the farmers. The fruits farmers mainly assume arm-elevated postures while vegetables farmers mostly take bent-back or squatting postures. The symptoms of musculoskeletal disorders are mostly reported in the low back, shoulder, and knee. Though the rates of symptoms of musculoskeletal disorders were not much different among the crops, the fruits farmers showed relatively higher rate of symptoms in the shoulder and neck than those of other crops. The rate of symptoms of female farmers was higher than that of male farmers, which is the similar results of other studies. The relatively low correlationship between the task characteristics and the rate of symptomes might be caused by the fact that most farmers are involved in various agricultural tasks that are not much different among different crops.

Fruits are subjected to complex dynamic stresses in the transportation environment. During a long journey form the production area to markets, there is always some degree of vibration present. Vibration inputs are transmitted from the vehicle through the packaging to the fruit. Inside, these cause sustained bouncing of fruits against each other and container wall. These steady state vibration input may cause serious fruit injury, and this damage is particularly severe whenever the fruit inside the package is free to bounce, and is vibrated at its resonance frequency. The determination of the resonant frequencies of the fruit may help the packaging designer to determine the proper packaging system providing adequate protection for the fruit, and to understand the complex interaction between the components of fruit when they relate to expected transportation vibration inputs. The first frequency of the pear in packaged freight be stacked in resonance frequency band of the pear packaged freight was increased from the bottom to the top of the stack but the second frequency of that in resonance frequency band of the pear was decreased. This indicated that the high damage score of the pear in bottom tier in vibration test was due to higher acceleration level in resonance frequency band of the pear.

This study was conducted to monitor the level of bifenthrin residues in pear sprayed with 2% bifenthrin wettable powder (WP) at the recommended rate at four different schedules prior to harvest. The target analyte was extracted with acetone, partitioned into dichloromethane, and then purified by florisil chromatographic column. The residue determination was performed on a DB-5 capillary column using GC with electron capture detector (ECD). Linearity of this method was quite good ($r^2$ = 0.9951) in the concentration ranged from 0.2 mg/kg to 10 mg/kg. Recovery test was carried out at two concentration levels, 0.2 mg/kg and 1.0 mg/kg, in three replicates, and their rates were from 82.9% to 107.2%. No quantitative bifenthrin was detected in pear of all kinds of treatments including the treatment sprayed 4 times until 7 days before harvest. This sensitive and selective method can be used to monitor the trace residual amounts of bifenthrin in pear in a quite low concentration level.

Apple stem grooving virus (ASGV) is considered to cause the most economically important viral disease in pears in Korea. The current PCR-based methods used to diagnose ASGV are time-consuming in terms of target detection. In this study, a novel assay for specific ASGV detection that is based on reverse transcription-recombinase polymerase amplification is described. This assay has been shown to be reproducible and able to detect as little as $4.7ng/{\mu}l$ of purified RNA obtained from an ASGV-infected plant. The major advantage of this assay is that the reaction for the target virus is completed in 1 min, and amplification only requires an incubation temperature of $42^{\circ}C$. This assay is a promising alternative method for pear breeding programs or virus-free certification laboratories.

Fruit bagging is a traditional way to produce high-quality fruit and to prevent damage from insects and diseases. Growing pears by non-bagging is concerned about the damage from insect, it can be controlled by installing a insect net facility. Wind load should be considered to design the insect net facility because it has the risk of collapse due to the strong wind. So we carried out wind tunnel test for measurement of drag force, where the insect net with porosity about 65% is selected as an experimental subject. As a result of the test, drag force was measured to be 244.14 N when insect net area and wind speed are $1m^2$ and 22.7 m/s respectively. And, drag coefficients for the insect net were found to be about 0.55~0.57, which may be used as the preliminary data to design the insect net facilities at the orchard.

Using the big data analysis of the Choseonwangjosilrok, this research aimed to figure out the fruits' types, prevalence, seasonal appearances as well as the royalty's perspective on fruits during Choseon period. Choseonwangjosilrok included nineteen kinds of fruits and five kinds of nuts, totaling 1,601 cases at 72.8% and 533 cases at 24.2% respectively. The text recorded fruits being used as: tributes for kings, gifts from kings to palace officials, tomb offerings, county specialties, trade goods or gifts to the foreign ambassadors, and medicine ingredients in oriental pharmacy. Seasonally the fruits appeared demonstrating an even distribution. Periodic characteristics were observed in decreasing quantity chronologically. From fifteenth century to nineteenth century, the fruits with timely features were seen: 804 times at 36.6%, 578 times at 26.3%, 490 times at 22.3%, 248 times at 11.3%, and 78 times at 3.5% respectively. In fifteenth century: citrons, quinces, pomegranates, cherries, permissions, watermelons, Korean melons, omija, walnuts, chestnuts, and pine nuts appeared most frequently. In sixteenth century: pears, grapes, apricots, peaches, and hazelnuts appeared most frequently. In seventeenth century: tangerines and dates appeared most frequently. In eighteenth century, trifoliate orange was the most frequently mentioned fruit.

Fire blight disease, caused by Erwinia amylovora, could damage rosaceous plants such as apples, pears, and raspberries. In this study, we designed to understand how E. amylovora affected other bacterial communities on apple rhizosphere; twig and fruit endosphere; and leaf, and fruit episphere. Limited studies on the understanding of the microbial community of apples and changes the community structure by occurrence of the fire blight disease were conducted. As result of these experiments, the infected trees had low species richness and operational taxonomic unit diversity when compared to healthy trees. Rhizospheric bacterial communities were stable regardless of infection. But the communities in endosphere and episphere were significanlty affected by E. amylovora infection. We also found that several metabolic pathways differ significantly between infected and healthy trees. In particular, we observed differences in sugar metabolites. The finding provides that sucrose metabolites are important for colonization of E. amylovora in host tissue. Our results provide fundamental information on the microbial community structures between E. amylovora infected and uninfected trees, which will contribute to developing novel control strategies for the fire blight disease.

The browning phenomenon of fruits can be easily observed when fruits or vegetables (apples, pears, bananas, potatoes, etc.) are cut with a knife and the part turns brown. When this browning occurs, changes in taste, color, and nutrients usually are introduced. The cause of this browning phenomenon has been well studied for a long time, but these studies have mainly focused on preventing deterioration of processed foods during food processing or storage. Resultantly, there are few studies on how much changes in nutrients (saccharides, amino acids, fats, water-soluble low molecular weight ammonium ions, etc.) are caused by browning. The purpose of this study is to determine the change in nutrients during browning using apple as a model fruit. We conducted a comparative study on how much the nutrient fluctuations differ depending on the presence or absence of pretreatment such as the application of heat. All analysis was conducted using ¹H NMR. The ANOVA analysis showed that the concentrations of 4 amino acids (alanine, asparagine, isoleucine, and valine), 3 types of sugars (fructose, glucose, and xylose), 1 type of organic acid (lactate) and choline were significantly increased in samples showing browning. In addition, the groups before and after browning were clearly separated using multivariate statistical analysis methods (PCA, PLS-DA), which was greatly contributed by two sugar components (fructose and glucose) present in high concentrations in apples.
