  • Sweetpotato is one of the important starch crops, current more considered as an industrial crop rather than food because it has higher starch content (over 80% of biomass), it is used for bio resources for industrial area. In this study, we generated S598A (a mutant gene of oat phytochrome A) sweetpotato plant using Agrobacterium-transformation method. Morphological characteristics of S598A plant were compared with the wild type sweetpotato, S598A had darker green leaves, increased chlorophyll content higher than to two-fold, delayed leaf senescence, shorter plant height (60% shorter than that of the wild type), more number of leaves and petioles about 1.8-fold, shorter petiole length (30% shorter), 1.2-fold more branches and 1.6-fold thicker stem diameters. From this study, S598A plants with such phenotypic characteristics might be able to use the solar energy efficiently, to have increased tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses and finally to increase productivity (not only starch yield but also root biomass yield). S598A sweetpotato lines are under field trials.

Comparison of two diagnostic methods, allele-specific real-time PCR and 3'-tailed PCR to discriminate between Salmonella enterica serovars Gallinarum and S Pullorum (Salmonella enterica serovars Gallinarum과 S Pullorum의 감별을 위한 2가지 진단법: allele-specific real-time PCR과 3'-tailed PCR의 비교)

  • Salmonella enterica serovars Gallinarum(SG, causative agent of fowl typhoid) and S Pullorum(SP, causative agent of pullorum disease) are very important bacterial pathogens in poultry industry. They share some common antigenic properties though the characteristics of outbreaks are quite different. To discriminate between SG and SP, we developed two rapid diagnostic methods, allele-specific real-time PCR and 3'-tailed PCR over 2 single nucleotide polymorphisms ($237^{th}\;and\;598^{th}$). In both methods, $237^{th}$ allele was found to be a good target for differential diagnosis, while $598^{th}$ allele produced some non-specific reactions.

  • Ad­hoc 무선 망에서 directional antenna의 사용은 interference를 감소시키고 spatial reuse의 증가, 그리고 네트워크 전체의 capacity 증가 등의 장점을 제공한다. 하지만 기존의 IEEE 802.11 MAC protocol은 omnidirectional antenna를 고려하여 디자인되었기 때문에 기존의 MAC protocol이 directional antennas에 사용될 경우 directional antennas의 장점을 효율적으로 제공하지 못한다. Directional antenna는 이러한 장점을 가지는 반면에 RTS/CTS를 방향성 있는 전송을 하기 때문에 hidden terminal과 이웃 노드의 위치를 파악하는데 있어서 많은 문제를 가지고 있다. 이 논문에서 우리가 제안하는 MAC protocol은 directional antennas 특성상의 문제점을 해결하여 directional antennas의 장점을 최대한 이용한다.

  • The increased use of online shopping by older consumers means that online retailers need to consider older consumers when designing websites. We investigated the specific characteristics of commercial websites (i.e., perceptual fluency) through an online experiment. Guided by perceptual fluency and affect optimization literature, hypotheses highlighting older consumers' responses to websites were proposed and tested. Results confirmed that older consumers (in their 50s) are more generous in evaluating online retailers' websites than younger consumers (in their 20s) and that responses to websites are dependent on perceptual fluency. The findings are consistent with previous research and provide additional support for theories that deal with an online apparel shopping context. Practical implications and limitations are discussed.

  • A Chebyshev filter is well known for having a sharp skirt characteristic and equi-ripple. On the other hand, a Butterworth filter has a smooth skirt characteristic and maximally flat ripple. This paper analyzes the skirt characteristics of the filters with the cascade connection. The paper deals with the Chebyshev BPF, Cascading Chebyshev BPF, Butterworth BPF, Cascading Butterworth*Chebyshev BPF. First of all, the paper designs the prototype analog LPF in order to analyze skirt characteristics of the BPFs. Then the paper does the frequency transformation into the BPFs and tests the BPFs with cascading them. As a result, the skirt characteristics of the Chebyshev BPF was the sharpest and those of the Cascading Chebyshev BPF, Butterworth BPF, Cascading Butterworth*Chebyshev BPF was superior in order. The validity of the paper was confirmed through minute measurements of test results.

  • A polarization fluorescence correlation spectroscopy system based on a confocal microscope was built to study the rotational and translational diffusion of CdSe/CdS quantum rods (Q-rods), with the same and different polarization states between the polarizer and the analyzer (i.e. the XXX and XYY states). The rotational diffusion amplitude showed the dependences on polarization of $0.75{\pm}0.05$ in the XXX state and $0.26{\pm}0.03$ in the XYY state, when the translational diffusion amplitude was 1. The diffusion coefficients of the Q-rods were found based on their translational and rotational diffusion times in the two polarization states, in solutions with viscosity ranging from 0.9 to 6.9 cP. The translational and rotational diffusion coefficients ranged from $1.5{\times}10^{-11}$ to $2.6{\times}10^{-12}m^2s^{-1}$ and from $2.9{\times}10^5$ to $5.6{\times}10^4s^{-1}$, respectively.
