  • A leaf spot pathogen Alternaria sp. was recovered from jimson weed, tomato, parsley, and coriander collected during surveys of blight diseases on Solanaceae and Apiaceae in Algeria. This species produced large conidial body generating long apical beaks that tapered gradually from a wide base to a narrow tip and short conidiophores originating directly from the agar surface. This species exhibited morphological traits similar to that reported for Alternaria crassa. The identification of seven strains from different hosts was confirmed by sequence analyses at the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, RNA polymerase second largest subunit, and translation elongation factor 1-alpha loci. Further the pathogen was evaluated on jimson weed, coriander, parsley, and tomato plants, and this fungus was able to cause necrotic lesions on all inoculated plants. A. crassa is reported for the first time as a new species of the Algerian mycoflora and as a new potential pathogen for cultivated hosts.

  • 우리나라 하천변 홍수터의 복원수종을 선발하기 위하여 우리나라 낙엽성 참나무 주요 6종의 유식물을 일반 토양(대조구)과 뿌리가 잠기는 침수된 토양에서 재배하여 그 생육변화의 차이를 분석하였다. 생육분석에 사용한 항목은 잎 수, 잎 길이, 잎 폭, 잎 면적, 지상부 길이, 줄기 길이, 줄기 직경, 뿌리 길이, 식물체 길이(뿌리 길이+줄기 길이), 잎 무게, 줄기 무게, 뿌리 무게, 식물체 무게 등 13가지 형질이다. 졸참나무는 관찰한 13가지 모든 형질에서 침수처리구에서도 잘 자라 대조구와 생육 차이가 없었다. 갈참나무는 식물체 길이 만, 떡갈나무는 잎 길이 등 4개 형질에서, 굴참나무는 잎 수 등 6개 형질에서, 상수리나무는 뿌리 길이 등 7개 형질에서, 신갈나무는 잎 수를 제외한 12개의 형질에서 대조구보다 침수 처리구에서 못 자랐다(p<0.05). 전체적으로 볼 때 낙엽성 참나무류의 침수에 대한 내성의 순서는 졸참나무>갈참나무>떡갈나무>굴참나무>상수리나무>신갈나무 순으로 감소하였다. 따라서 참나무류를 하천변의 홍수터 복원 시에는 졸참나무나 갈참나무를 식재하는 것이 바람직하다.

  • 식물 표현체(plant phenomics) 연구는 우수한 형질의 식물 품종과 유전적 특성을 선별하기 위해 여러 식물체의 형태적 특징을 관측하고, 획득한 영상 빅데이터를 분석하는 기술이다. 기존의 방법은 검출 대상에 따라 직접 색상 임계값을 변경해야 하기 때문에 빅데이터를 다루는 정밀검정시스템에 적용하기 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 정밀검정시스템을 위한 식물체와 배경의 자동 분할이 가능한 합성곱 신경망(Convolution neural network: CNN) 구조를 제안한다. LeafNet은 9개의 컨벌루션 계층과 식물의 유무를 판단하기 위한 시그모이드(Sigmoid) 활성화 함수로 구성된다. LeafNet을 이용한 학습 결과, 식물 모종 영상에 대하여 정밀도 98.0%, 재현율 90.3%의 결과가 도출되어 정밀검정시스템의 적용 가능성을 확인하였다.

  • Adzuki beans have gained popularity in recent years due to their health benefits. Breeding of Adzuki beans is less favorable than with other legumes due to low genetic diversity. This study aimed to evaluate the genetic diversity of 252 adzuki bean germplasms from China, Japan, and Korea using 18 agro-morphological parameters and comparing their performance to three prominent Korean cultivars: Geomguseul, Arari, and Chungjupat. Leaf shape, pod color, and seed coat color were among the qualitative traits that showed wide variations. The quantitative variables also showed wide variations among adzuki bean germplasms. Although there was no significant difference (p < 0.05), the average rate of germination declined in the order of Korean (91.44%) > Chinese (91.31%) > Japanese (87.47%) adzuki beans. Chinese adzuki beans needed fewer days to flower (DF, 58.22 days) and days to mature (DM, 107.13 days), which varied significantly compared to the Korean and Japanese adzuki beans (p < 0.05). The average number of pods per plant (PPP) and one-hundred seeds weight (HSW) were higher in Japanese adzuki beans compared to the Korean and Chinese adzuki beans although the variation of each was not significant. Almost 29.76% of the accessions had early-blooming flowers, 3.97% were premature, 21.43% produced more PPP, and 3.97% yielded more SPP compared to control cultivars. Results of hierarchical cluster and principal component analyses revealed three clusters with significant variation in all quantitative variables except for RG (p < 0.05). The key factors in multivariate analyses were DF, DM, and HSW. Our study investigated the genetic diversity of adzuki bean accessions and identified ten early maturing and ten high PPP-yielding accessions. Our findings would help farmers and breeders to select the top-performing accessions that can provide them with various options.

  • Sweetpotato is one of the important starch crops, current more considered as an industrial crop rather than food because it has higher starch content (over 80% of biomass), it is used for bio resources for industrial area. In this study, we generated S598A (a mutant gene of oat phytochrome A) sweetpotato plant using Agrobacterium-transformation method. Morphological characteristics of S598A plant were compared with the wild type sweetpotato, S598A had darker green leaves, increased chlorophyll content higher than to two-fold, delayed leaf senescence, shorter plant height (60% shorter than that of the wild type), more number of leaves and petioles about 1.8-fold, shorter petiole length (30% shorter), 1.2-fold more branches and 1.6-fold thicker stem diameters. From this study, S598A plants with such phenotypic characteristics might be able to use the solar energy efficiently, to have increased tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses and finally to increase productivity (not only starch yield but also root biomass yield). S598A sweetpotato lines are under field trials.

  • The genetic diversity of two subpopulations of Corynandra chelidonii, one of terrestrial and the other of aquatic environments, was measured with molecular markers, such as start codon targeted (SCoT), inter simple sequence repeats (ISSR), and random amplification of polymorphic DNA (RAPD). The traditional morphological traits such as habitat, habit, leaf morphology, the colour of the sepals and petals, number of stamens, and seed morphology formed the base for their realization as two varieties, C. chelidonii var. pallae and C. chelidonii var. chelidonii. The polymorphism between the two variants was 100% with the primers SCoT-2 and OPA-1 and 4, while maximum polymorphism was detected with ISSR-2, SCoT-3, and OPA-3. The study used, for the first time, more than one molecular marker to assess the genetic variation underscoring the morphological variation in Corynandra chelidonii (L.f.) Cochrane & Iltis. The study justifies the recognition of the two subpopulations of Corynandra chelidonii from aquatic and terrestrial environments as two distinct varieties, C. chelidonii var. pallae (Reddy & Raju) V.S.Raju and C. chelidonii var. chelidonii, respectively, based on the traditional taxonomic evidence.

  • This study was carried out to investigate the effect of forms and levels of nitrogen fertilizer on plant growth and essential oil production of Agastache rugosa. Calcium nitrate had more influenced on length and width of leaves and lateral branch length than did urea. When nitrogen fertilizer level was increased from 12 kgN/I0a to 24kgN/I0a, plant growth was stimulated and dry matter of leaf and inflorescence were increased. Top dry matter of plant with calcium nitrate treatment (38.4 g) was heavier than that of urea treatment (32.8 g). Interactions among accession and nitrogen form and nitrogen rate were not significantly different for top dry matter. The forms and rate of nitrogen fertilizer did not affect estragole content. The estragole contents was higher in leaf (91.8%) than that of inflorescence (81.3%). While the essential oil content was not affected by different nitrogen forms, nitrogen level affected the essential oil contents positively by increasing dry matter. Essential oil yield was not affected by accession or nitrogen form, but by nitrogen rate. With increasing N application from 12kgN/I0a to 24 kgN/I0a, essential oil yield was increased by 95.8 %.

  • Twenty two varieties of pecan including wild types were classified based on 6 characters measured by principal component analysis score distance. The results are summarized as fellow. Twenty two varieties were classified into 5 groups based in PCA score distance. Five groups were distinctly characterized by many morphological characters. Total variation could be explained by 51%, 95%, 99% with first, third and fifth principal components respectively. Varimax rotation of the factor loading of the first factors indicated that the first component was highly loaded with leaf characters, the second component with fruit characters, but fruit length was negative loaded. The second, the third and the fourths groups of cultivars had very close genetic parentage similarity.

  • The present study researched morphological characteristics and analyzed the genetic diversity by using RAPD in Calanthe species, native plant in Jeju, Korea. Twenty-six samples were selected by flower color, and 19 horticultural traits were investigated to study morphological characteristics. The C. discolor had the smallest leaf, the length and width of dorsal sepal, lateral sepal, petal, central lip, lateral lip, and flower stalk length were shortest and/or smallest except the spur and ovary length in Calanthe species, but those of Calanthe discolor for. sieboldii (Dence.) Ohwi (Calanthe discolor for. sieboldii) were the largest and/or biggest, and those of variants were the intermediate between C. discolor and C. discolor for. sieboldii, but spur length was the longest in C. discolor, the shortest in C. discolor for. sieboldii, and intermediate in the variants. Ovary length in C. discolor was shortest and C. discolor for. sieboldii and variants were similar with each other. The flower colors of C. discolor were brownish red, the value of CIE Lab was between 40 and 50. The flower color of C. discolor for. sieboldii was yellowish; the value of CIE Lab was between 110 and 130. And variants had various colors between 50 and 70 in the value of CIE Lab. After analyzing multiple band patterns of PCR products, 154 bands were selected as polymorphic RAPD markers. The analysis of Genetic distance of Calanthe species using RAPD showed that C. discolor and C. discolor for. sieboldii are more distant from each other than variants, and demonstrated the fact that genetic position of variants is between the other two species.

  • 대두에서 종자크기와 앞 크기와의 관계를 알아보기 위하여 두 형질에서 큰 차이를 보이는 12 strain을 선택하여 half diallel mating system으로부터 만들어진 66개의 $F_2$ 분리집단을 대상으로 양 형질에 대한 관계를 조사한 결과는 다음과 같다. 종자크기 (g/100 seed)는 6.7에서 43.8의 변이를 보였고, 잎의 넓이와 길이(cm)에서는 각각 5.7에서 8.6과 9.4에서 12.9의 변이를 보였다. $F_2$ 집단에서의 잎의 넓이와 길이는 고도의 유의한 정의 상관관계를 보였고, 종자 크기와 잎 크기에서도 동일한 경향을 보여, 잡종집단 및 germplasm 내에서 일반적으로 큰 잎 형질과 대립종자 형질은 고도의 정의 상관관계가 있는 것으로 사료된다. 따라서, 대두 잡종집단에서나 germplasm내에서 어린 식물체를 대상으로 하는 생육초기에서 대립종자를 가진 genotype를 선발하기 위해서 큰 잎을 가진 genotype의 선발은 효과적인 수단이 될 것으로 보인다.
