This study was carried out to investigate the effect of sulfuric fertilizers on allylisothiocyanate(allylNCS) content of upland Wasabia japonica Matsum cultivated in heating condition in the winter season. The rhizome's growth characters following soil application of sulfur dust were not significantly different compared to control, though its soil acidity and available sulfur content was higher than other treatments. Total sulfur content of plant was increased by soil application as compared to foliar application and allylNCS content of rhizome increased up to 22.8% in the sulfur dust treatment. The result showed that soil application was effective for supplying $SO_4^{-2}$ in upland Wasabia japonica Matsum when cultivated in heating condition. In the analysis of correlation coefficients between growth and quality characteristics, allylNCS content of rhizome showed the significantly positive correlation with total sulfur content of shoot, rhizome and allylNCS content of shoot.

The Dongchimi added with Wasabi (Wasabia japonica Matsum) for the improvement of quality was scientifically explored by reviewing the optimum level and its effect on the microbiological and sensory characteristics of product fermentation. The final weight percentage of Wasabi in Dongchimi was adjusted to 0, 3, 5, 7 and 9%, per radish, respectively. Microbiological and sensory characteristics were determined during fermentation at $10^{\circ}C$ for 55 days. The viable cell counts of total and lactic acid bacteria had increased to their maximum values during fermentation until they began to drop at the later stage. Here, the 7% treatment showed a distinctive low and high numbers of total cells and lactic acid bacteria, respectively, during the later stage of fermentation. As for the sensory evaluation results of the fermented Donchimi with Wasabi, the 7% treatment was most favored for the color, the smell, the sour taste, the hot taste, the carbonated taste, the texture, and the overall acceptability of the products. The optimum levels of Wasabi in Dongchimi were estimated between 5 and 7% per added radish weight, and the 7% level was more preferred when the fermentation-retarding effect of the product was considered.

본 연구에서는 allylisothiocyanate를 발생시켜 식품의 맛을 좋게 하고 식욕 및 소화 작용을 할뿐만 아니라 여러 가지 세균, 곰팡이와 대장균의 성장을 억제하는 효과를 나타내어 식품의 방부 작용을 하는 것으로 알려진 고추냉이(Wasabia japonica matsum)를 동치미에 첨가하여 맛과 저장성에 미치는 영향을 알아보고 실용화하는 방안의 기초를 마련하고자 하였다. 고추냉이는 무 무게에 대하여 0, 3, 5, 7, 9% 첨가하여 동치미를 담그어 1$0^{\circ}C$에서 50일간 발효시키면서 관능적 및 미생물학적 특성을 살펴보았다.

본 연구는 고추냉이(Wasabia japonica matsum)가 동치미의 발효 중 저장성에 미치는 영향을 알아보고 고추냉이의 최적사용량을 찾아내고자 하였다. 고구냉이는 무 무게에 대하여 0, 3, 5, 7, 9% 첨가하여 동치미를 담그어 1$0^{\circ}C$에서 50일간 발효시키면서 이화학적 특성을 알아보았다. pH의 경우 발효 초기에는 고추냉이 첨가한 처리구가 대조구에 비해 낮게 나타났다. 발효 10일 이후에는 대조구의 pH가 가장 낮게 나타났고 고추냉이 첨가량이 증가할수록 높은 pH를 나타내었다. (중략)

This experiment was conducted to evaluate the contents of allylisothiocyanate and the change of hardness of the rhizome part of Wasabia japonica Matsum. by months after planting in water cultivation. No difference was found in plant height and leaf length at 10th and 15th months after planting, respectively. The rhizome part of wasabi was cut half and the dry weight was weighed. Dry weight was obtained as 17.3% and 21.6% from fresh lower and upper part of rhizome at 10th month after planting. At 15th month after planting, dry weight was obtained as 21.2% and 22.3% from fresh lower and upper part of rhizome. The contents of allylisothiocyanate were 0.047 mg/g and 0.633 mg/g at 10th and 15th month, respectively.

This study was investigated on the effects of colchicine and EMS. induced mutation, plant on the germination and polypeptide pattern and peroxidase activity monitored by two dimensional gel analysis in Wasabia japonica Matsum (wasabi). Germination rate of Muju was higher than that of Ulrung-Do and optimum concentration for germination was appeared 100 ppm GA3 containing with 10 ppm BAP in these cultivars. Survived plants rate of Muju was higher than that of Ulrung-Do after colchicine and EMS treatment. Peroxidase activity and plant height were decreased by mutagen treatments, while incresed in root and stem thickness. The number of protein spots and pattern showed difference between Muju and Ulrung-Do . The plants treated mutagen increased polypeptide spots, especially EMS treatment showed more different polypeptide pattern compared to control.

This study was conducted to determine the effect of seedling and division nursery stock size on the growth and yield of Wasabia japonica cultivated with cold water from Soyang Dam. As seedling and division nursery stock size were enlarged, their growth and yield were higher. In the case of division nursery stock, the rhizome yield per 10a were 782kg for large one, 723kg form medium one and 567kg for small one, and commercial rates - the percentage of rhizomes that weigh over 40g - were 87% for large one,80% for medium one and 55% for small one. In the case of seedling, large one brought out yield of 575kg/10a while medium and small one brought out low yield of 408kg/10a, and 421kg/10a, respectively. And the commercial rates from seedling were 60% for large one. 13% for medium one and 20% for small one.

The antimicrobial activities of horseradish ( Wasahia japonica) root extract against 4 kinds of food poisoning bacteria and 3 kinds of molfs were examined. The antimutagenic activity of horseradish ( Wasahia japonica) root extracts was also examined by Ames test with Salmonella tyhimurium TA 98 The antimicrobial activities of distilled water extracts from horseradish root were stronger than those of ethanol extracts, and stronger against molds than bacteria. Of the kinds of bacteria, Vibrio parahaemolyticus was best inhibited by the distilled water extracts from horseradish root. The antimicrobial activity of distilled water extracts from horseradish root were stronger against 3-Amino-1, 4-dimethyl-5H-pyrido{4,3-b}indole than 2-Amino-3,-8-dimethylimidazo-[4,5-f]quinoxaline.

Occurrence of soft rots was observed on wasabi (Wasabia japonica Matsum) grown in Chuncheon and Pyengchang Kangwon province, Korea. The symptoms appeared on the wasabi root, which became mushy and black. This eventually resulted in wilting and death of the aboveground parts of the wasabi. The causal organism was isolated from the infected lesions and was identified as Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora based on the morphological, physiological and biochemical characteristics, and on the results of the Biolog program (Biolog Inc., U. S. A.). E. carotovora subsp. carotovora is the first described bacterium which causes bacterial soft rot on wasabi in Korea.
