Effects of various concentrations of copper on growth change of blue-greenalgae Anabaena flos-aquae were studied. There was significant differences among cultures treated with various concentrations of copper in growth of algae with parameters of cell numbers, specific growth rate (SGR) and chlorophyll contents. Algal growth and SGR were inhibited on by effect of various concentrations of copper more than without copper (ANOVA, F=34.69 p<0.001, F=114.89, p<0.001). The SGRs of various concentrations of copper in media were higher than without copper on 8 days after copper treated. The mean of chlorophyll contents was 1.978 ${\mu}g{\cdot}mL^{-1}$ and 1.648 ${\mu}g{\cdot}mL^{-1}$, respectively, while those of algae in culture without copper was 3.179 ${\mu}g{\cdot}mL^{-1}$ (ANOVA, F=153.74, p<0.001). The cellular morphology was different between media of which copper treated and without copper. The colony of algae in media which copper treated was shorter than without copper. Effects of various concentrations of copper on growth change of blue-green-algae Anabaena flos-aquae occured variety changes of parameters of cell numbers, specific growth rate (SGR), chlorophyll contents and cellular morphology on growth of algae.

This research was conducted to get the basic materials necessary to obtain the somatic hybrid plant between Solanum sisymbriifolium and other Solanum species (S. integrifolium and S. toxicarium). Regarding the formation of colony from the protoplast in S. sisymbriifolium, S. integrifolium and the fused protoplast mixture; for the S. sisymbriifolium, a colony was observed in F medium(Kao medium containing $5.0mg{\cdot}L^{-1}\;NAA,\;1.0mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ 2,4-D and $1.0mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ BA); and for the S. integrifolium, in G medium (a half strength MS medium containing 0.03 M sucrose, 0.4 M mannitol, $1.0mg{\cdot}L^{-1}\;NAA,\;1.0mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ kinetin) respectively. In mixed cultured protoplast after electriofusion treatment, the cell division and colony formation were observed in both media F and G. For the shoot and root formation rate, there was no difference between the parent of each breed and mixed protoplast regardless of the medium. In the fused protoplast mixture of S. sisymbriifolium and S. toxicarium, a colony formation was also observed in both media F and H(a half strength MS medium containing 0.03 M sucrose, 0.4 M mannitol, $1.0mg{\cdot}L^{-1}\;NAA,\;1.0mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ kinetin); and there was no difference in the shoot and root formation rate between the parent and the mixed protoplast.

Quantitative trait loci (QTLs) controlling ability of somatic embryogenesis were identified in soybean. A frame map with 204-point markers was developed using an RI population consisting of 117 $F_{11}$ lines derived from a cross between cultivar 'Keburi' and a weedy soybean 'Masshokutou Kou 502'. The parents differed greatly in their abilities of somatic embryogenesis using immature cotyledons as explants. The ability of somatic embryogenesis was evaluated in five different experiments: the $F_{11}$ (evaluated in 1998) and $F_{15}$ (2002) generations cultured on basal media supplemented with $40\;mg\;l^{-1}$ 2,4-D (2,4-D1998 and 2,4-D2002), $F_{14}$ (2001) generation on medium with $40\;mg\;l^{-1}$ 2,4-D and high sucrose concentration [2,4-D2001 ($30\;g\;l^{-1}$ sucrose)], and the $F_{11}$ (1998) and $F_{12}$ (1999) generations on medium with $10\;mg\;l^{-1}$ NAA (NAA1998 and NAA1999). The RILs showed wide and continuous variations in each of the five experiments. In the composite interval mapping analysis, 2 QTLs were found in group 8 (D1b + W, LOD = 5.42, $r^2$ = 37.5) in the experiment of 2,4-D1998 and in group 6 (C2, LOD = 6.03, $r^2$ = 26.0) in the experiment of 2,4-D2001 (high concentration sucrose). In both QTLs, alleles of 'Masshokutou Kou 502' with high ability of somatic embryogenesis contributed to the QTLs. For the other three experiments, no QTL was detected in the criteria of LOD >3.0, suggesting the presence of minor genes.

This study identified heart response of participants while listening to sounds which have 1/f fluctuations with exponent ${\alpha}$ gradient. The participants were engaged in emotional stress work. Prior studies related to 1/f fluctuation sound have reported that sound source can alleviate psychological and physiological state of users. Subjects of this study were exposed to sound with three levels of ${\alpha}$ gradient. Heart response of subjects were measured with Photoplethysmography(PPG) sensor simultaneously. The dependent variables of this study were beat per minute(BPM), very low frequency percent of pulse rate variability (VLF percent), the standard deviation of all normal RR intervals (SDNN), and high frequency power(HF power). Subject showed arousal response when exposed to sound with exponent ${\alpha}$ gradient of 3 whereas the sound with exponent ${\alpha}$ gradient of 1 and 2 resulted in relax effect. The characteristic of 1/f fluctuation sounds can be applied to alleviate stress for employers under emotional labor.

With the advent of applicant tracking systems, online recruitment has become more popular, and recruitment fraud has become a serious problem. This research aims to develop a reliable model to detect recruitment fraud in online recruitment environments to reduce cost losses and enhance privacy. The main contribution of this paper is to provide an automated methodology that leverages insights gained from exploratory analysis of data to distinguish which job postings are fraudulent and which are legitimate. Using EMSCAD, a recruitment fraud dataset provided by Kaggle, we trained and evaluated various single-classifier and ensemble-classifier-based machine learning models, and found that the ensemble classifier, the random forest classifier, performed best with an accuracy of 98.67% and an F1 score of 0.81.

Weeds bring disadvantages to crops since they can damage them, and a clean treatment with less pollution and contamination should be developed. Artificial intelligence gives new hope to agriculture to achieve smart farming. This study delivers an automated weeds growth point detection using deep learning. This study proposes a combination of semantic graphics for generating data annotation and U-Net with pre-trained deep learning as a backbone for locating the growth point of the weeds on the given field scene. The dataset was collected from an actual field. We measured the intersection over union, f1-score, precision, and recall to evaluate our method. Moreover, Mobilenet V2 was chosen as the backbone and compared with Resnet 34. The results showed that the proposed method was accurate enough to detect the growth point and handle the brightness variation. The best performance was achieved by Mobilenet V2 as a backbone with IoU 96.81%, precision 97.77%, recall 98.97%, and f1-score 97.30%.

The effects of pH, saturated oxygen, and back-flushing media were investigated in hybrid process of tubular ceramic microfiltration and $TiO_2$ photocatalyst-loaded PES (polyethersulfone) beads for advanced drinking water treatment, and compared results of water, nitrogen, or oxygen back-flushing in the viewpoints of membrane fouling resistance ($R_f$), permeate flux (J) and total treated water ($V_T$). $R_f$ decreased, and J and $V_T$ increased as decreasing pH. Turbidity treatment efficiencies were similar at water or nitrogen back-flushing independent of pH, but DOM (dissolved organic matter) treatment efficiency did not have a trend at water back-flushing. $R_f$ at NBF (no back-flushing) with SO (saturated oxygen) was the lower than that at NBF without SO. Also, the DOM treatment efficiency at NBF with SO was the lower than that at NBF without SO. It happened because OH radicals produced by reaction of SO and photocatalyst could dilute with water inside the module. The DOM treatment efficiency of gas back-flushing showed the larger than that of water back-flushing at back-flushig period 10 min. It proved that the adsorption or photo-oxidation of PES beads could be activated by the more effective bead-cleaning of gas back-flushing than water back-flushing.

High yields of protoplasts were obtained following enzymatic digestion of the vagetative thalli of marine green alga Monostroma nitidum. The enzyme mixtures containing $4\%$ Cellulase R-10+$3\%$ Macerozyme R-10+$3\%$ Abalone acetone power produced $4.41\times10^6$ protoplasts per 300 mg of fresh tissue. The highest yield of protoplasts was obtained by 270 minutes treatment of the thalli in enzyme solution. Freshly isolated protoplasts were spherical in shape and ranged between $13\~33\mu$m in diameter. The high efficiency of differentiation were obtained by incubating freshly isolated protoplasts in 0.4 M mannitol f/2 medium for 7 days and then transferring to 0.2 M mannitol f/2 medium. Protoplasts began to form new cell walls three days after initial culture and began to germinate after 10 days, and then form a leafy thallus after further culture in f/2 medium. The addition of antibiotics in media inhibited the differentiation of protoplasts in culture.

Fungal isolates belong to Fusarium solani (perfect stage : Nectria haematococca) were isolated form pea, ginseng roots and soybean during 1995 and 1996 in Korea. Thirty-five isolates were identified as F. solani f. sp. pisi based on the morphological characteristics and their pathogenicity. Microconidia formed on the long conidiophore were ovoid or oblong sizing 5~14 x 2.5~5.0 $\mu\textrm{m}$. Macroconidia were formed on carnation leaf agar media with 4.8~5.3 x 32.0~40.7 $\mu\textrm{m}$ in size. They belonged to $\beta$-type since their 3-septate macroconidia were smaller than $5\mu\textrm{m}$ in width. Chlamydospores were smooth- or rough- walled and formed in terminal or lateral branches of hyphae, intercalary, or in chains. Most isolates were highly virulent to pea seedlings, producing dark brown or rot lesions. This is the first report of f. solani f. sp. pisi being pathogenic to pea in Korea.
