미량원소인 Mo의 시비농도를 인위적으로 조절하여 '금향', '매향' 및 '설향' 딸기를 재배하면서 생장에 미치는 시비수준의 영향, 생육을 우수하게 유지할 수 있는 식물체의 한계농도, 그리고 과잉에 의해 발현되는 생리장해의 특징을 구명하기 위하여 본 연구를 수행하였다. 관비용액의 Mo 농도를 높일 경우 엽록소 함량이 뚜렷하게 직선적으로 감소하여 세 종류 딸기에서 Mo 시비농도의 처리간 차이가 인정되었다. '금향'과 '매향'은 3.0mM 이상, 그리고 '설향' 딸기는 1.0mM 이상의 고농도 Mo 시비구에서 이보다 낮은 Mo 시비구보다 유의하게 생체중 및 건물중이 감소하였다. Mo이 과다하게 시비될 경우 최초의 Mo 과잉증상이 하위엽에서 발현되었으며, 하위엽 가장자리가 황화된 후 괴사하면서 그 부위가 점차 확대되는 양상으로 변화되었다. 또한 하위엽 가장자리가 점차 구리색으로 변하면서 그 부위가 상위엽으로 확대되었으며, 신생엽에서는 엽맥 간 황화현상이 나타났다. Mo 시비농도를 증가시켜도 세 종류 딸기의 식물체 내 P, K 및 Mg 함량은 처리간 통계적인 차이와 경향을 발견할 수 없었다. '금향'과 '설향' 딸기에서 Mo 시비농도에 따른 처리간 Ca 함량의 차이가 인정되었는데 1.0mM Mo 시비구에서 가장 높고, 이보다 높거나 낮은 Mo 시비농도에서 Ca함량이 감소하였다. 관비용액의 Mo 농도를 0.25mM로 조절한 처리의 식물체 내 Mo 함량이 '금향', '매향' 및 '설향'이 각각 76.5, 104.0, $187.3mg{\cdot}kg^{-1}$였지만, 시비농도가 높아질수록 식물체내 Mo 함량이 직선적으로 증가하여 4.0mM 시비구에서 각각 4,155, 5,367 및 $2,190mg{\cdot}kg^{-1}$으로 분석되었다. 최대생장량의 90% 생장량과 이때의 식물체 내 Mo 함량을 정상적인 작물재배를 위한 최대한계점으로 간주하면 '금향', '매향' 및 '설향' 딸기의 건물중에 기초한 Mo 함량이 각각 653.4, 686.2, 그리고 $589.73mg{\cdot}kg^{-1}$ 이하를 유지하도록 Mo 시비농도를 조절해야 한다고 판단하였다.

The growth and biomass of reeds(Phragmites australis) growing in a subsurface treatment wetland system were investigated from April 2003 to October 2003. Nitrogen(N) and phosphorous(P) concentrations in above-ground(AG) and below-ground(BG) tissues of reeds were examined and the removal rate of N and P by reeds were analyzed. The system, 29 m in length, 9 m in width and 0.65 m in depth, was constructed in June 2001 on a floodplain in the down reach of the Kwangju Stream in Korea in order to purify polluted water of the stream. A bottom layer of 45 cm in depth was filled with crushed granites(15~30 mm in diameter) and a middle layer of 10 cm in depth was filled with pea pebbles(10 mm in diameter). An upper layer of 5 cm contained course sand. Reeds were transplanted on the surface of the system, which were dug out of natural wetlands, and their shoots were trimmed 40 cm in height. The height and density of the shoots averaged 237.7 cm and 244.0 shoot/$m^2$, respectively, when the reeds grew fully. The maximum biomass of AG and BG tissues were 1,964 and 1,577 g/$m^2$, respectively, and the AG : BG ratio of biomass was 1.26. Mean AG and BG dry weights were recorded as 1,355 and 748 g/$m^2$, respectively. The AG and BG tissue concentrations of N averaged 12.37 and 10.01 mg/g, respectively, and those of P 2.37 and 2.03 mg/g, respectively. Inflow to the system averaged 40 $m^3$/day. The concentrations of total nitrogen(T-N) in influent and effluent were 8.4 mg/L and 3.2 mg/L, respectively, and those of total phosphorous(T-P) were 0.73 and 0.38 mg/L, respectively. The total removal of T-N and T-P by the system during the investigation period averaged 140.2 and 9.7 g/$m^2$, respectively, and the total uptake of N and P by the reeds were calculated as 24.39 and 4.73 g/$m^2$, respectively. Average removals of about 17% of N and about 49% of P by reeds were recorded. The N and P concentrations in AG tissues were significantly different among the three zones of the system:near to inflow(St1), in the middle of system(St2), and near to outflow(St3). The N and P concentrations in BG tissues were also significantly different among St1, St2 and St3. N and P concentrations in AG and BG tissues of reeds growing in St1 were higher than those in St2 and St3. The height and density of shoots of reeds in St1 were larger than those in St2 and St3. Significant amounts of N and P in the influent were taken up by reeds in St1.

Fibrous dysplasia is a benign disorder of bone consisting of intramedullary proliferation of fibrous tissue and irregularly distributed, poorly developed bone. The disease manifests itself in the monostotic form in which only one bone is involved and the polyostotic form in which multiple bones at different sites are affected. We reported a extensive case of polyostotic fibrous dysplasia with involvement of craniofacial bones, mandible, ribs and extremities. A 18-year-old man showed remarkable right facial swelling who had been treated on right femur 3 years ago with a bone graft for pathologic fracture and he recognized facial swelling 5 years ago. Extraoral radiograms and computed tomogram showed diffuse sclerosis with a ground glass appearance of the most cranial bones, facial bones. The right mandibular lesion showed very expansile lesion with mottled appearance. Bone scans showed mutifocal increased uptakes in craniofacial bones, right mandible, bilaterally in ribs, humerus, femur, tibia and characteristic varus deformity of right femur (shepherd's crook defomity). This case showed exceptionally bilateral, extensive nature of bone lesion and didn't show any features of skin pigmentation and endocrine disturbances.

Previous experiments have shown that aqueous sodium silicate ingested in drinking water may modify the gastrointestinal uptake and(or) tissue retention of certain trace elements, including heavy metals. The present experiment tested, with a mineral balance trial using sheep, the hypothesis that dietary silicic acid could modify uptake, retention and(or) biological effects of dietary Cd. Twenty-four wethers were fed a fibrous diet of ground alfalfa hay and cottonseed hulls to which either 0 or 150 ppm Cd was added as $CdCl_2$ and 0, .5 or 1% silicic acid (as dry matter of the diet). Body weight, feed intake, excretion of urine (volume) and feces (weight), digestibility of dry and organic matter, retention of nitrogen, and packed cell volumes of blood were not affected by either Cd or silicic acid (P<.10). Cadmium decreased (P<.05) Ca retention and increased (P<.01) Mg retention. Silicic acid decreased (P<.05) K retention. Silicic acid failed (P<.01) to modify the retention of added dietary Cd. Body retention of K, Mn and Ni in response to silicic acid varied with Cd levels. If Cd is interfering with mineral retention, silicic acid may be effective in preventing this interference.

Dermal wound healing responses in the skin of the toad, Bombina orientalis, were examined using transmission electron microscopy. At 12 hours after wounding, debridement and collagenolysis occurred in damaged dermis. Histocyte has a large nucleus and long cytoplasm process. Phagocytic vesicle and lysosome were observed in the cytoplasm. Damaged blood cells were transformed spindle to irregular shape. Autolysis was observed in their cytoplasm. Histocytes are found in poly-band. The irregularly shaped nucleus is located peripheral region in cytoplasm. At 2 days after wounding, partial aggregation of blood cells is observed. Phagocytic, activity is observed in histocyte and collagenolytic collagen fibers are scattered. Fibroblast is observed in the dermis at 3 days after wounding. Clusters of ribosomes and some short cisternae of rough-surfaced endoplasmic reticulum are found in the cytoplasm. In histocyte at 7 days post wounding, various size granules composed of moderately dense material are found the cytoplasm. In this period histocyte is round to rod in profile, with slender processes projecting from the surface. At 7 day after injury, it was observed that formation of connective tissue fibers and amorphous ground substance in regenerating skin.

The effect of excess L-ascorbic acid(AsA) in blood, liver lipid levels and peroxidation status were investigate . Ten Sprague-Dawley male rats weighing 150-200g were fed 300mg AsA/100g body weight/day, mixed into ground chow diet, for 4 weeks. And another set of then rats were fed only chow diet as the control. Average body weight gain was slightly lowered by AsA feeding without food intake change. The AsA group showed higher AsA levels in plasma and liver than the control group. In addition, the AsA group showed a higher plasma TBARS value. Liver TBARS seemed to be elevated in the AsA, but not significantly. The hemolysis of red cells tended to increase with excess AsA, accompanied by a raised GSH-Px activity and lowered total GSH levels. Plasma HDL-Chol level was increased while the levels of total Chol, LDL-plus VLDL-Chol , and triglyceride were unchanged . Atherogenic index decreased. Hepatic TG levels were also decreased, but the total amount of Chol increased slightly . Platelet TXA$_2$ production was inhibited by excess AsA feeding. Above results indicafe that oral feeding of excess AsA may be beneficial in reducing the risk of atherosclerosis ; however such practice may be detrimental for tissue lipid peroxidation and weight gain.

In this study, the effects of sitting position of the driver on the whiplash neck injury have been analyzed experimentally by using hybrid III series 50 percentile male crash test dummy. A testing platform consisting of vehicle ground, driver foot rest, driver seat and a 3-point seatbelt has been prepared. This testing platform and the instrumented crash test dummy are prepared for tests according to the Euro NCAP whiplash testing protocol. The prepared test set-up has been exposed to 3 different acceleration-time loading curves defined in the Euro NCAP whiplash testing protocol by performing sled tests. 9 different sled tests have been performed with the combinations of 3 different seating positions of the crash test dummy and 3 different acceleration-time loading curves. The sensor data obtained from the crash test dummy and high-speed videos taken are analyzed according to the injury assessments criteria defined in the Euro NCAP whiplash testing protocol and the criticality of the whiplash injury is defined. It is seen that the backset distance of the driver head with the headrest and the height difference of the top of the head of the driver with the headrest have a great importance on whiplash injuries.

Transcriptional regulation, a core component of gene regulatory networks, plays a key role in controlling individual organism's growth and development. To understand how plants modulate cellular processes for growth and development, the identification and characterization of gene regulatory networks are of importance. The SHORT-ROOT (SHR) transcription factor is known for its role in cell divisions in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana). However, whether SHR is involved in hypocotyl cell elongation remains unknown. Here, we reveal that SHR controls hypocotyl cell elongation via the transcriptional regulation of XTH18, XTH22, and XTH24, which encode cell wall remodeling enzymes called xyloglucan endotransglucosylase/hydrolases (XTHs). Interestingly, SHR activates transcription of the XTH genes, independently of its partner SCARECROW (SCR), which is different from the known mode of action. In addition, overexpression of the XTH genes can promote cell elongation in the etiolated hypocotyl. Moreover, confinement of SHR protein in the stele still induces cell elongation, despite the aberrant organization in the hypocotyl ground tissue. Therefore, it is likely that SHR-mediated growth is uncoupled from SHR-mediated radial patterning in the etiolated hypocotyl. Our findings also suggest that intertissue communication between stele and endodermis plays a role in coordinating hypocotyl cell elongation of the Arabidopsis seedling. Taken together, our study identifies SHR as a new crucial regulator that is necessary for cell elongation in the etiolated hypocotyl.

상토에 기비로 혼합된 질소 시비수준 차이가 '녹광' 고추의 플러그 묘 생장에 미치는 영향을 구명하기 위해 본 연구를 수행하였다. 코이어더스트, 피트모스 그리고 펄라이트를 용적기준 35, 35 및 30%로 혼합한 상토를 조제할 때 질소를 0, 100, 250, 500, 750, 1,000 및 $1,500mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$로 농도를 조절하여 첨가하였고, 질소를 제외한 필수원소는 모든 처리에서 동일한 농도로 조절하였다. 비료를 포함한 상토를 50-cell 트레이에 충진한 후 종자를 파종하였다. 파종 후 매주 pH와 EC 측정, 파종 0, 3 및 7 주 후 상토의 다량원소 농도 분석, 그리고 파종 7주 후에 지상부 생장 조사와 식물체 무기원소 함량을 분석하였다. 파종 전 상토의 pH는 질소수준별 차이가 크지 않았지만 육묘기간이 길어질수록 처리간 차이가 커지는 경향이었다. 상토의 EC는 파종 전 질소 시비수준별 뚜렷한 차이를 보였지만, 파종 4주 이후부터 처리간 차이가 적어졌고, 7주 후에는 모든 처리에서 유사한 수준으로 측정되었다. 상토 추출용액의 $NH_4-N$ 및 $NO_3-N$농도는 EC와 유사한 경향을 보이며 낮아졌고, 다량원소농도 역시 파종 3주 이후에 감소폭이 더 커졌다. 파종 후 7주 후 조사한 고추 유묘의 지상부 생장은 500 및 $750mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ 처리구에서 우수하였으며, $1,000mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ 이상의 처리구에서는 질소 무시비구와 비슷한 수준으로 생장이 저조하였다. 파종 7주 후 분석한 식물체내 N 함량은 질소 시비수준이 높아질수록 직선적으로 증가하였으며, 지상부 생장이 우수하였던 500 및 $750mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ 시비구가 각각 5.13 및 5.31%로 분석되었다. 이상의 결과를 고려하였을 때 고추의 유묘 생장을 위해서는 기비로서의 질소시비수준을 500 또는 $750mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$으로 조절하는 것이 바람직하며, 건물중에 기초한 N 함량이 5.1~5.3% 수준으로 시비농도를 조절하는 것이 바람직하다고 판단하였다.
