Purpose: Selection-optimization-compensation (SOC) models have been proposed and applied to various populations to examine successful aging from a multidimensional perspective. This study aimed to develop a scale to measure SOC strategy among late middle-aged women (aged 50 to 64 years) and to test its validity and reliability. Methods: Preliminary items were developed through a literature review and interviews. Overall, 32 preliminary items were confirmed via two rounds of expert content validity analysis and a pilot survey. Data were collected from 299 late middle-aged women and analyzed using IBM SPSS/PC+ version 27.0. Construct validity, criterion validity, and reliability tests were conducted. Results: The SOC strategy scale, reflecting the characteristics of late middle-aged women and developed through exploratory factor analysis, comprised 19 items across four factors: goal-oriented selection, compensation for loss, outcome optimization, and ability-based optimization. The scale explained 66.9% of the variance in total factors, with a Cronbach's α of .95. Statistically significant correlations with the reference scale (r=.30, p<.001) were observed. Conclusion: The developed scale demonstrated high validity and reliability, thus representing a viable instrument for measuring SOC strategy among late middle-aged women. Using this scale to assess the use of SOC approaches in these women can improve our understanding of the aging process and help establish supportive programs for their aging journeys.

Temperature-dependent development study for overwintered eggs of Pseudococcus comstocki (Kuwana) wasconducted to develop a forecasting model for egg hatch date. Hatch times of overwintered eggs were comparedat five constant temperatures (10, 15, 20, 25, 27$^{\circ}$C) and different collection dates. A nonlinear, four-parameterdevelopmental model with high temperature inhibition accurately described (R2=0.9948) mean developmentalrates of all temperatures. Variation in developmental times was modeled(~~=0.972w9)it h a cumulative Weibullfunction. Least-squares linear regression (rate=O.O06358[Temp.]-0.07566)d escribed development in the linearregion (15-25$^{\circ}$C) of the development curve. The low development threshold temperature was estimated 11.9"Cand 154.14 degree-days were required for complete development. The linear degree-day model (thermal summation)and rate summation model (Wagner et al. 1985) were validated using field phenology data. In degreedaymodels, mean-minus-base method, sine wave method, and rectangle method were used in estimation of dailythermal units. Mean-minus-base method was 18 to 28d late, sine wave method was 11 to 14d late, rectanglemethod was 3 to 5d late, and rate summation model was 2 to 3d late in predicting 50% hatch of overwinteredeggs. hatch of overwintered eggs.

Since its initial outbreak in Korea in 2015, fire blight has consistently emerged annually. Fire blight outbreaks usually begin in May, peak in June, and decline in July in Korea. In this study, we analyzed cases that exhibit a distinct pattern of disease occurrence based on yearly weather conditions from 2020 to 2023. In 2020, fire bight disease occurrence began in late May. Although the disease incidence started late by the low temperatures in April, which caused flowering period delayed, the incidence increased significantly due to the high risk of blossom infection. In 2021, the first outbreak began in late April because the flower infection started in early April. In 2022, despite the high blossom infection risk during the flowering period in April and the high incidence of fire blight in May, the incidence decreased sharply from June due to the low rainfall in May. In 2023, due to torrential rains and hail in late June, the incidence of fire blight increased even in July. Considering the weather factors that affect the increase of fire blight disease, it is suggested that control measures to prevent the fire blight infection should be carried out before and after wind-driven rains.

The electrophysiological properties of the inward current contributing to the late plateau phase of the action potential were investigated using the whole cell clamp technique and intracellular dialysis in single atrial cells isolated from the rabbit heart. The inward current was activated by various repolarizing pulses after a brief depolarizing pulse to +40 mV for 2 ms and its time course was similar to that of the late plateau of the action potential. The current was fully activated above the potential of -40 mV and abolished by intracellular EGTA. Ryanodine of $1{\mu}M$ also abolished the late plateau and the inward current. Reduced $Na_o\;to\;30%\;and\;20\;mM\;Na_1$ diminished the late plateau together with the inward current. Diltiazem blocked the activation of the current and Ni in the concentration of $40{\sim}200\;{\mu}M$ decreased the development of the late plateau and the inward current. Fully activated current-voltage relation of the inward current showed exponential voltage dependency which was steeper in more hyperplarizing range. The above findings suggest that the inward current was activated by intracellular calcium and contribute the late plateau phase of the action potential. It could be concluded that the inward current would be the inward component of Na-Ca exchange.

This experiment was carried out to determine growth characteristics, dry matter (DM) yield, seasonal yield distribution and nutritive value of early- and late maturity orchardgrass, 1990 to 1992. The cultivars used in this study were Potomac, Hallmark (early maturing cultivar) and Lidacta, Rancho (late maturing cultivar), and a mixture plot (Potomac 25% + Hallmark 25% + Lidacta 25% + Rancho 25%) was involved. The seeding rate was 20 kgha in all treatments. Plant height of Potomac and Hallmark was longer than that of Lidacta and Rancho. The dates of initial heading and 50% heading of early maturing cultivars (Apr. 30 and May 10) were 10 days earlier than those of late matuing cultivars. Potomac and Hallmark were upright, and Lidacta and Rancho were semi-upright type, and severe disease and weeds (30 ~ 40%) were observed at Lidacta plot. On an average of three years, the DM yields of Potomac (10,549 kglna), Hallmark (10,435 kg) and mixture (10,356 kg) were significantly (P<0.05) higher than those of Rancho (9,457 kg) and Lidacta (8,218 kg). However, seasonal yield distribution of late maturing cultivars was better than that of early maturing cultivars. The contents of crude protein, crude fat, crude fiber, nitrogen %ee extract, aude ash, neutral detergent fiber, P, K, Ca, and Mg were not significantly different between cultivars, but higher aude protein yield was found at Potomac, Hallmark and mixture plots. Based on the above results, it may be concluded that early maturing cultivars for high productivity, late maturing cultivars for seasonal yield distribution, and seeding of mixture andlor separation of early- and late maturing cultivars are recommended. Also Lidacta was a not promising cultivar due to low productivity, severe disease, and high weeds development.

This study was showed into the pollen development with in vivo by bud size and genotype. Microspores of buds from 2.0 mm to 2.5 mm of all genotypes were composed of mainly tetrad cells and early uninucleate stage cells. Microspores derived from buds of 2.5-3.0 mm were exposed cells of early uninucleate, middle uninucleate, and late uninucleate. Microspores from buds of 3.0-3.5 mm contained mostly late uninucleate stage cells and showed some early binucleate stage cells. Microspores of buds with 3.5-4.0 mm in length were composed of mainly binucleate stage cells and decreased late uninucleate stage cells. Microspore with more than 4.0 mm were entered into binucleate stage cells of divided generative nucleus and vegetative nucleus. In 'Tamlayuchae', microspores derived from buds of 3.5-4.0 mm were observed cells of late uninucleate stage and early binucleate stage because of late microspore development. In MS-maintainer, the spring type, microspore derived from buds of 2.5-3.0 mm were observed tetrad stage cells.

The photoperiod and temperature response of Korean varieties were studied under field and greenhouse conditions. Results of the experiment indicated that all varieties tested were relatively intensitive to photoperiod. The early varieties were least affected by photoperiod while the late varieties showed the greatest response. Low temperature delays flowering either under short daylength or natural daylength. In general, temperature has a greater effect than photoperiod on the growth duration of the varieties used. The late varties had longer photoperiod-sensitive phase than the early varieties. Temperature has very little effect on the photoperiod-sensitive phase. The basic vegetative phase is longer in the early varieties than the late varieties. High temperature results shorten duration of the basic vegetative phase.
