  • In 2001, a black scab disease was observed in tea plant (Thea sinensis) cultivated in the hillsides of Hwngaemyon and Hadong-gun, Gyeongnam province, Korea. The disease symptoms initially appeared on leaves, green twigs and stems, showing small dark brown spots on the infected areas, which gradually expanded. A fungus was isolated from diseased leaves and green twigs. It grew readily on potato dextrose agar, forming dark green to dark gray colonies. The optimum temperature for mycelial growth was about 20$^{\circ}C$. The diameter of growing hyphae was 3.5-5.8 $\mu\textrm{m}$. Conidia were ellipsoidal, ovoid or subspherical, and mostly one-celled but occasionally septate. The size of one-celled and septate conidia were 3.7-12.4${\times}$3.4-5.2 $\mu\textrm{m}$ and 9.3-18.7${\times}$3.8-7.2 $\mu\textrm{m}$, respectively. Conidia were formed in long branched chains on the erected conidiophores, which were dark brown in color and 28.9-218.3${\times}$3.0-6.1 $\mu\textrm{m}$ in length. The fungus was identified as Cladosporium herbarum on the basis of its morphological characteristics. The black scab disease occurring in tea caused by Cladosporium herbarum has not been previously reported in Korea.

  • A soybean cultivar with a green seed coat and cotyledon contains high levels of lutein, which is beneficial for eye health. Plus, antinutritional components such as lipoxygenase, Kunitz trypsin inhibitor (KTI), lectin and stachyose exist in the mature seed. The genetic elimination of these antinutritional factors is a necessary step in green soybean breeding. This research was conducted to improve a new green soybean line with the green cotyledon and tetra null genotype (lox1lox2lox3tilers2) in terms of lipoxygenase, KTI, lectin and stachyose. We used five germplasms to develop a breeding population. A total of 69 F2 seeds were obtained from the cross of parent 1 and parent 2, and from those, 21 F2 seeds were selected that had the green seed coat color, and which were free of lectin protein. Next, four F2 plants with the green seed coat and tetra null genotype were selected from the breeding population derived from four genotypes. The absence of lipoxygenase, KTI and lectin proteins was confirmed in the F5 strain. The breeding line has a green seed coat, green cotyledon and white hilum color. The 100-seed weight and stachyose content for the breeding line were 30.7 g and 2.40 g/kg, respectively. The line selected in this study could be used as a cultivar or parent to improve colored soybean cultivars through the removal of antinutritional components such as lip- oxygenase, KTI, lectin and stachyose.

  • We investigate multi user joint rate scheduling and power allocation problem for a delay sensitive CDMA systems. First, we characterize the existing two user joint rate scheduling and power allocation. We then extend the problem to the case of the multi user systems. In general, there is no simple optimum solution for the multi user scheduling problem. To that end, we propose a sub optimum solution, termed 'virtual user approach'. We show the performance of the virtual user approach to verify the benefit of complexity.

  • This study was designed to investigate the possible role of 10 green manure crop extracts in antimicrobial activity against potato common scab (Streptomyces scabiei). Ten green manure crops were extracted with hexane, ether, ethylacetate, methanol and water. The DPPH radical scavenging activity of ether, methanol and water was higher than those of hexane and ethylacetate fractions. The fractions of methanol, ethylacetate, ether and water showed antimicrobial activity against Streptomyces scabiei from the concentration of 0.25 mg/mL. Methanol fraction of Sorghum showed the highest antimicrobial activity against this microorganism. This result suggests the sorghum extract was the best as good green manure crop with antimicrobial activity against Streptomyces scabiei.

  • This study surveys the state of 'children's snacks' sold within the Green Food Zone and that of High Calorie Foods with Low Nutrition Value (HCFLNV). The main purposes are the analyses of foods in accordance to KFDA Program for HCFLNV and an analysis of differences in HCFLNV that are dependent on relevant factors such as food types, school types, origins, the scale of manufacturing company, area and price. Based on the analyses, educational and political implications have been sought that will form nutritious dietary habits, contribute to the prevention of obesity, and improve health in child consumers. The methodologies of this study are literature studies and surveys. The results of this study can be summarized as following. First, the number of children's snacks is 517 items of total 645 gathered within 150 Green Food Zones. Candies are the most popular item, next are cookies, chocolates, and breads. Second, in the real state survey there are 186 HCFLNV (36.0%) among children's snacks sold within Green Food Zone. Based on the survey results, the marking of HCFLNV on the package of children's snacks and the extension of the ban of HCFLNV sales to all stores within the Green Food Zone are strongly suggested. This provides preliminary data related to children's snacks and food safety. With enforcement of the Special Act on the Safety Management of Children's Dietary Life, the rate of HCFLNV has decreased and the child snack product environment in stores has improved. However, it is necessary to supervise low-priced snacks and promote an awareness of HCFLNV along with the child consumer education of food safety is needed.

  • Incidences of leaf blight of lily cultivars Raizan and Casa Blanca in the open field cultivation were 50% and 45.4%, respectively, while those in the green house cultivation were significantly reduced to 1.5% and 1.9%, respectively, In the green house, the incidences of the disease in sprinkler watering cultivation were $14.5{\sim}16.5%$, while those in drip watering cultivation were only $1.5{\sim}2%$. Incidence of the disease was severe in the field where the lily was cultivated successively for 2 to 3 years. Isolation frequencies of B. elliptica from overwintered plant debrises such as leaves, stems, capsules, and bulbs were 43.3%, 46.7%, 60% and 0%, respectively, while those of B. cinerea were 10.3%, 0%, 3.3% and 0%, respectively, Incidence of leaf blight in the field where diseased plant debris was cleaned was 7.3%, while that in the field where diseased plant debris was not cleaned was 56.5%. Incidences of the disease in the field where coverages of soil surface with black vinyl, bark or rice straw were used were 6.6%, 8.2% and 11.3%, respectively, while that in the field where the coverage was not used was 21.3%.

  • Apartment housings that adopt a bearing wall structure design, which account for a majority of the housing units available in Korea, are not free from structural constraints that limit the extension of their service life. The resulting need for reconstruction from the ground up requires a massive consumption of resources and energy, and triggers environmental pollution resulting from construction wastes. As a solution to such issues, the government enforces incentive schemes to promote a remodeling-friendly rahmen structure design. Green Frame, which is a novel concept of composite precast concrete structure to support rahmen structure apartment housing buildings, can address the constraints of bearing wall structure and conventional rahmen structure designs that limit the potential for remodeling projects, while reducing the term of construction. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the characteristics of Green Frame and its absolute term of construction, and compare the terms of frame work construction in apartment housing projects adopting different structural design approaches to illuminate their differences. In the end, Green Frame is found to be capable of reducing the term of construction in apartment housing projects. As the term of construction is a very critical element of a construction project, Green Frame will ultimately prove to be one of the key enablers to ensure the success of apartment housing construction projects.
