Setoka (Tangor Norin No.8) is a superior tangor cultivar cultivated in a greenhouse on Jeju Island, and its ${\beta}-cryptoxanthi$n content was determined during the ripening season (September 2005 to March 2006). The ${\beta}-cryptoxanthi$n content of the peel of Setoka fruits was higher than that of the flesh. Also, the ${\beta}-cryptoxanthi$n content in both peel and flesh gradually increased through the ripening season from the beginning of pigmentation, and then decreased slightly late in the ripening season. The ${\beta}-cryptoxanthi$n content in the peel of Setoka fruits varied throughout the season with values of 0.02 (Sep), 0.67 (Nov.), 2.27 (Dec.), 2.88 (Jan.), 2.27 (Feb.), and 2.13 mg% (Mar.). The ${\beta}-cryptoxanthi$n content in Setoka fruit flesh increased throughout the ripening season with values of 0.05 (Sep.), 0.22 (Nov.), 0.57 (Dec.), 0.80 (Jan.), and 0.91 mg% (Feb).

This study was designed to analyze the chemical compositions of 'Setoka' branch essential oils (SEBO) and to test their biological activities. 'Setoka' is a Citrus species widely cultivated in Jeju Island. At the present, 'Setoka' branches produced by thinning process were mostly discarded as a waste. Therefore, utilization of this branch waste has received much attention. 'Setoka' branch essential oils (SBEO) were prepared by treatment of its ethanol extracts with jojoba oil. SBEO were chemically analyzed using gas chromatograph-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), and following components were identified; ethyl linoleate (64.14%), ethyl palmitate (16.50%), neophytadiene (11.06%) and beta-citronellol (5.09%). The anti-inflammatory activity in the SBEO was examined using RAW 264.7 murine macrophage cells stimulated with LPS. As a result, the SBEO inhibited nitric oxide (NO) productions with a dose-dependent manner. In addition, SBEO showed good anti-microbial activities against drug-susceptible and -resistant skin pathogens such as Staphylococcus aureus and Propionibacterium acnes, which are acne-causing bacteria. Based on these results, we suggest that SBEO has the possibility for use as an anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial agent in cosmetic applications.

We investigated quality changes in Setoka ([Citrus unshiu$\times$Citrus sinensis]$\times$Citrus reticulate]$\times$[Citrus reticulata$\times$Citrus sinensis]) wrapped in 30-m pore size low-density polyethylene film (LDPE) and stored at different temperatures. LDPE wrapping effectively inhibited weight loss, and fruits seemed fresh even after room temperature storage. The decay rate was higher at room temperature and with LDPE wrapping. The respiration rate of LDPE- wrapped fruits was somewhat higher than that of control samples. Thus, no modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) effect was observed when 'Setoka' citrus was studied. Acidity decreased at a constant but different rate with each storage method used, and these rates were correlated with respiration rates. Soluble solid content (SSC), however, increased during 45 days of storage a subsequent rapid decrease was then observed.

Activity of the noncontacted low temperature atmospheric pressure surface discharged plasma (LASDP) converts stable gas to ionized gas known as discharge or plasma. This ionized gas exhibits the antimicrobial activity. We examined the effects of 3 different storage treatments for 80 days on 'Setoka' : ambient storage (AS), low-tempperature storage (LTS), and low-temperature atmospheric pressure plasma+low-tempperature storage (PLTS). Total soluble solids showed no the significant differences between the 3 treatments. Acidity gradually decreased, and was 0.5% under AS after 30 days of storage. Fruit firmness increased by a few percent until 40 days of storage. Weight loss in AS was higher than for other treatments. After 80 days of storage, the decay ratio was significantly low in PLTS treatment: (AS, 50.5%; LTS, 5.6%; PLTS, 1.9%). In AS treatment, 73% of the rotten fruits were infected particularly with green and blue mold; however, only 1% of the rotten fruits were infected in case of PLTS treatment. In conclusion, LASDP treatment can prevent postharvest decay caused by fungi and is an efficacious alternative extending the shelf-life of citrus fruits.

Citrus mosaic sadwavirus (CiMV) is a closely related virus with the Satsuma dwarf virus (SDV) along with Navel orange infectious mottling virus (NIMV), Natsudaidai dwarf virus (NDV), and Hyugagatsu virus (HV). The present study found that the typical symptoms of CiMV-infected citrus fruits include the appearance of dark blue speckles or ringspots on fruit rinds and the browning of oil glands in the spots as rind coloring began. As rind coloring progressed, the spots gradually faded, whereas the browning of the oil glands worsened to the point that the tissues surrounding the oil glands became necrotic. In very early satsuma mandarins (Citrus unshiu 'Miyamoto Wase') and 'Setoka' cultivar (C. hybrid 'Setoka') of late-maturity citrus, the symptomatic fruits were eventually dropped. And in early satsuma mandarin (C. unshiu 'Miyakawa Wase'), the peel hardness of the virus-infected fruit (1,618.3 ± 305.5, g-force) was more than twice as hard as that of the healthy fruit (636.5 ± 39.1, g-force). The ratio of flesh weight to total fruit weight was higher for the healthy fruit (77.3 ± 1.7%) than for the infected fruit (70.7 ± 0.6) and peel puffing was more severe in the infected fruit (2.9 ± 0.4 mm) than in the healthy fruit (0.9 ± 0.2 mm). The soluble solids content in infected citrus fruits was less values than the healthy fruit by 0.5-1.5 °Brix. These findings reveal that CiMV infection on citrus trees reduces the fruit quality of citrus.

This study was conducted to eliminate viruses from citrus-infected plants using micrografting and thermotherapy. Six citrus cultivars including a 'Setoka' hybrid were used as plant sources. The TAS-ELISA technique demonstrated that several plants were CTV positive. However, no CTV symptoms were detected in plants obtained from shoots and treated at a high temperature of $40^{\circ}C$ during the day and night and micrografted for two weeks with old trifoliate orange rootstock in vitro. Indexing of CTV, SDV, and CTLV for RT-PCR analysis of the eleven citrus seedlings, including 'Setoka', 'Samdajosang', 'Pungkwang', 'Shiranuhi', and 'Ehimekashi dai28go' was virus free following the micrografting and thermal therapy.

만감류 5종(한라봉, 천혜향, 황금향, 레드향, 카라향) 부위별 에탄올 추출물의 항산화 활성에 관하여 총 폴리페놀 함량 측정, 총 플라보노이드 함량 측정, DPPH radical 소거 활성 실험을 실시하였다. 만감류 5종(한라봉, 천혜향, 황금향, 레드향, 카라향)의 총 폴리페놀 함량의 경우, 레드향 과피 처리구(93.97mg/g)에서 가장 높았으며, 천혜향을 제외한 모든 만감류 품종 부위들 가운데, 과피 처리구에서 높은 폴리페놀 함량을 나타내었다. 만감류 5종(한라봉, 천혜향, 황금향, 레드향, 카라향)의 총 플라보노이드 함량은 한라봉 전체 처리구(23.65mg/g)에서 가장 높았으며, 모든 처리구에서 30mg/g 함량보다 낮은 결과를 나타내어 총 폴리페놀 함량 대비 낮은 함량을 나타내었다. 이러한 현상은 만감류 5종(한라봉, 천혜향, 황금향, 레드향, 카라향) 가운데 과피 두께의 비율이 영향을 미친 것으로 판단되어진다. 만감류 5종(한라봉, 천혜향, 황금향, 레드향, 카라향)의 DPPH radical 소거 활성의 경우, 한라봉 전체(81.01%)를 시작으로 한라봉 중피(73.13%), 한라봉 외피(63.94%) 처리구에서만 DPPH radical 함량이 EDA 50% 이상 값을 나타내었다. 특히 총 폴리페놀 함량(mg/g)과 총 플라보노이드 함량(mg/g) 모두에서 높은 수치를 기록했던 처리구들 가운데 한라봉 중피(79.75, 23.16), 한라봉 전체(75.51, 23.65) 처리구에서 높은 항산화 활성을 보인 반면, 레드향 과피(93.97, 20.59)의 활성은 49.26%로 DPPH radical EDA 50%에 미치지 못하였다. 이러한 결과는 과피와 과육의 에센셜 오일과 성분의 차이에서 기인된 것으로 추측된다.
