In order to examine the possibility that oil seed rape could be used as a forage fodder crop and to select the most suitable variety of forage rape at the southern area of Korea, two varieties of oil seed rape currently grown for oil production and six introduced varieties of forage rape with relatively high yield and high nutritional value were grown at the same condition and yield components were observed. Forage rape was superior to oil seed rape in terms of yield components, plant fresh weight and plant dry mater weight. Velox was superior to any other variety of forage rape in these characters. When plant dry matter weight of the rape was subdivided into four components such as a main stem, branch stems, main stem leaves and branch leaves, contribution of these components to plant dry matter weight was in the order of branch stems, branch leaves, the main stem and main stem leaves. Dry matter percentage of the rape ranged from 9.32 to 11.08 percent, which was somewhat low value. There was no significant difference between two groups of the rape in terms of dry matter percentage. Velox showed somewhat higher value in dry matter percentage.

The florescence steps of Lycium chinense M. are as follows: Budding-Yellow, leaf-Falling-Flowering. Pruning treatment has a long stem diameter compared withnon-pruning treatment and as a result, the numbers of internode were great and thetotal effective numbers of branch were great, too. In the non-pruning treatment asthe fruit length was short so the fruit was small, and on the contrary in the pruningtreatment as the fruit length was long so large and good fruits were produced.Fresh fruit weight produced per 10a was increased as much as 38-39% in thesurface pruning treatment and in the pruning treatment l0Cm away from surfacecompared with in the non-pruning treatmerlt.

The objective of this research was to develop growth media for artificial ground by blending calcined clay and coconut peat. To achieve this, aggregates of clay particles were mixed with disel oil and heated to high temperature(1150~120$0^{\circ}C$) to expand clays. The particle sizes of expanded clay were controlled to 2~5mm in diameter. Then expanded clayes were mixed with coconut peat and changes of soil physicochemical properties and their effect on plant growth of Hedera L. were determined. The infiltration rate of calcined clay was very high, but the water holding capacity, the cation exchange capacity(CEC), and the nutrient contents were low. The characteritics of coconut peat was vice verse to calcined clay. This indicates that the mixture of calcined clay and coconut peat have the better characteristics than each material. As compared to mineral soil, the infiltration rate, the water holding capacity, the CEC and the nutrient contents increased, but bulk density decreased to about 1/4. And, Hedera L. grown in the mixture of calcined clay and coconut peat(6:4, v/v) had higher plant height, longer leaf length, more total number of leaves per plant and fresh weight than that grown in mineral soil, but statistical differences were not observed between two treatments.

Knit industry requires versatile knit designers who have to control whole process such as material select, color, type of machine, technique, structure and shape. In other words, knit designers urgently need to interplay between technology and design aesthetics. It becomes essential to learn and master basic principles of knitting in order to design and develop effectively for innovative knitwear design. The main purpose of this study is to show fresh methodology through examining the various applications of 'Stitch transfer knitting structure' used in women's knitwear design development. Stitch transfer knitting structure is one of the most popular techniques among various basic knitting methods. Eight knitwears were designed and produced with various types of formative applications which differ from existent stitch transfer knitwears of flat and simple style in the market. These are produced by computer knitting machine 'Shima Seiki 122S' and programmed by 'Knit CAD' software. Among various basic stitch transfer pattern, 'Leaf' pattern is selected as a most effective example for this study. This fabric applied to collar, sleeves, body pattern and accessories as formative decoration. It is expected that this study of methodology helps to get open mind and to indicate possibility to develop and show creative and innovative knitwear and knitted textile design.

This study was carried out to investigate the antioxidative enzymes and isozymes between chilling-tolerant and -susceptible varieties at the booting stage under cold water stress $(13^{\circ}C)$ in japonica rice. Total SOD, CAT, POX, and GR activities on the basis of protein were found to be important factors to defend cold water stress. Especially, SOD and CAT activities showed distinctive differences between chilling-tolerant and -susceptible varieties. Chilling-tolerant varieties were higher than chilling-susceptible varieties for SOD and CAT activities. One of eight isozyme bands for SOD was a inducible isoform. Three isozymes for CAT and one isozyme for POX were closely correlated with defense to cold water stress. Total GR activities except Stejaree 45 on the basis fresh weight and POX were increased by cold water stress, but there was no difference between chilling-tolerant and -sus­ceptible varieties.

Rye is cultivated on about 30,000ha domestically for forage and green-manure production in Korea. 'Daegokgreen' has been developed as a good quality rye cultivar for forage and green-manure, which was doubled-chromosome by colchicine treatment of diploid rye cultivar 'Gogu' in 2010. By the colchicine treatment with 0.05% for 12 hours at $2^{nd}$ leaf stage of 'Gogu', 31 tetraploid plants were obtained and they produced 2,470 seeds with 135 spikes. There was 4.4 in the number of spikes per plant, 18.3 in grain number per spike, and 37.6 g in the1,000-grain weight. The heading date of 'Daegokgreen' was April 11, which was two days later on average compared with 'Gogu'. The biomass (fresh weight) of 'Daegokgreen' was 3,701kg, which was similar to 'Gogu'. The average crude protein content of 'Daegokgreen' was 8.9%, which was 1.0% point higher than 'Gogu'. 'Daegokgreen' was found to be strong resistant to winter-kill and can be adapted to before maize cultivation.

Based on a tracer study, starch phosphorylase was implicated as an agent in the starch synthesis in sweet potato roots. The enzyme was purified from the tissue as a cluster of isozymes with an average mw of 205K (fresh roots) or 159K (roots stored for 3 mon.). On SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, one large subunit of 98K mw and several small ones of 47${\sim}57K mw were observed. From the mw data and the results of peptide mapping and immunoelectrophoretic blotting using mono- and polyclonal antibodies, it was deduced that a large part of the large subunit was cleaved at the middle part of the peptide chain to give rise to the small subunits, and on storage, the enzyme molecules were further modified by proteolysis. During the course of phosphorylase purification, a proteinaceous inhibitor of the enzyme was isolated. It had a mw of 250K and was composed of 5 identical subunits of 51K mw. In the direction of starch synthesis, the inhibitor showed a noncompetitive kinetics with a Ki of $1.3{\times}10^{-6}\;M$. By immunohistochemical methods, both the enzyme and the inhibitor were located on the cell wall and amyloplast. Crossreacting materials of the inhibitor were present in spinach leaf, potato tuber and rice grain. These findings indicate the wide occurrence of the inhibitor and also imply its possible participation in regulating starch phosphorylase activity in vivo.

Monosporascus cannonballus, a soilborne ascomycetes is recently described in Korea that causes root rot/vine decline of cucurbits. The effect of Monosporascus root rot disease on photosynthetic activity and growth was studied on oriental melon plants. At harvest stage, photosynthetic activity of diseased oriental melon plants was lower and stomatal resistance was higher than healthy plants, while xylem exudates were not observed in diseased plants. There was no difference in mineral contents of the leaves and stems between diseased and healthy plants. Leaf area, fresh and dry weights, and fruit weights of the plants were markedly decreased in diseased plants compared to those of healthy plants.

This study was carried out to determine the effects on rice growth, yields and soil improvement under the different nitrogen levels in machine-transplanted rice after plowing at the fruiting stage of milk vetch. The fresh weight of milk vetch at plowing time was 20.95 ton/ha. In dry weight, T-N and C/N were 1.58%, 21.8%, respectively. Organic matter, total nitrogen and exchangeable calcium of soil after the experiment in the plot of milk vetch were higher than those before the experiment. Leaf area and dry weight of rice plants at heading date increased as nitrogen level increased. The number of panicle and spikelets per $\textrm{m}^2$were not different except for the 110 kg/ha nitrogen level plot with milk vetch. Brown rice yield ranged from 5.45 to 6.08 ton/ha, in creasing with increased nitrogen level. So the yield increased by 1% at 77 kg/ha nitrogen level, 7% at 110 kg/ha nitrogen level plot with milk vetch compared with conventional level (rice straw 5.4 ton/ha and nitrogen 110 kg/ha).

This study was carried out to develop a fully-controlled plant growth system for studying the effects of environmental factors on plant growth. The plant growth system consists of the growth chamber, the measurement system for sensing and signal conditioning the environmental factors and the control system which includes control algorithm required for optimum operation and on-line monitoring. The results of the study on the performance of the controlled plant growth system are summarized as follows : 1. Under the light intensity of 18,000~20,000 lux, the temperature was controlled in the range of $22{\pm}0.4^{\circ}C$, the relative humidity of $70{\pm}5%$ respectively. 2. The $CO_2$ concentration was controlled in the range of $1,000{\pm}40ppm$(from 1st to 4th day) and $1,500{\pm}40ppm$(from 4th to 9th day). 3. The electric conductivity(EC) and pH of the nutrient solution were controlled in the range of $1.9{\pm}0.2mS/cm$ and $6.8{\pm}0.5pH$ respectively. 4. Under the above environmental conditions, the average fresh weight of leaf lettuce increased from 10g to 74g in 9 days with 24 hour lighting.
