  • Citrus tristeza virus (CTV) was identified form CTV-infected early satsuma mandarin (Citus unshiu) and yuzu (C.junos) by RT-PCR. The total RNAs were isolated from citrus bark and seaf tissues infected with CTV and reverse transcription was followed with primers designed for amplifying CTV coat protein gene. DNA fragments 738 bp were amplified by RT-PCR and these products were colned for sequence analysis. Based on the sequence analysis, this PCR product has 97% sequence homology to CTV (T-385) CP gene isolated from USA. RT-PCR assay for CTV detection was more sensitivity than ELISA assay which was done with anti-CTV CP antibody. This is the frist report about CTV identification in Cheju island Korea.

  • In order to produce a high quality (intelligibility and naturalness) synthesized speech, it is very important to get an accurate grapheme-to-phoneme conversion and prosody model. In this paper, we analyzed Chinese texts using a segmentation, POS tagging and unknown word recognition. We present a grapheme-to-phoneme conversion using a dictionary-based and rule-based method. We constructed a prosody model using a probabilistic method and a decision tree-based error correction method. According to the result from the above analysis, we can successfully select and concatenate exact synthesis unit of syllables from the Chinese Synthesis DB.

  • The electron-capture detector (ECD) of gas chromatographs (GC) has been used widely in pesticide analysis. However, as ECD relies on radioactive material, it is troublesome to purchase and maintain. Therefore, potent replacements for ECD were investigated. A Pulsed-discharge detector (PDD) for ECD was tested and the analytical results of PDD (ECD mode), ${\mu}ECD$, and nitrogen-phosphorus detector (NPD) were compared for 107 pesticides including organochroline, organophosphorus, pyrethroids etc. The number of pesticides identified at the lowest limit of detection (LOD) was 36, 29, and 2 for PDD, ${\mu}ECD$, and NPD, respectively. The remaining pesticides showed same response to PDD and ${\mu}ECD$. The GC-PDD analysis of pesticides spiked into representative agricultural products (brown rice, spinach, and mandarin oranges) also showed good and/or equivalent recoveries using $GC-{\mu}ECD$.

  • This paper is an acoustic study of neutralization of short tones in Taiwanese. The results show that the two short tones were completely neutralized in juncture position. Since long tones in Taiwanese show complete neutralization in context position, the bidirectionality of tone alternation in Taiwanese Tone Sandhi poses a problem far rule-based approaches, while it is consistent with the hypothesis that both juncture and context tones are listed in the lexicon, instead of one being derived from the other. Moreover, in order to account for the difference between Taiwanese Tone Sandhi and Mandarin Tone Sandhi (which has been proven acoustically to be incomplete neutralization), the Naturalness Hypothesis is proposed, which claims that if the neutralization is phonetically unnatural, then the neutralization is more likely to be lexicalized and show complete neutralization.

  • A Linear Approximated Inverse Almost Ideal Demand System, suggested by Eales and Unnevehr, is estimated with monthly data set of Korean fruits consumption. LA/IAIDS consists of 6 demand equations which correspond to domestically produced Hanrabong, overwintering mandarin, strawberry, melon and tomato with imported orange. The results indicate that price and scale flexibilities are negative, as expected. And the significance is that a 10% increase in imported orange quantity is associated with 5.5% declines in the price of Korean Hanrabong while the price of other fruits is minimally affected. In addition, the estimate of scale flexibility of Hanrabong (-2.96) is much smaller than any other fruit. Hanrabong farmer might be in the face of deficit operation as a consequence of the substitution effect if orange would be imported in accordance with the Korea-U.S. free trade agreement.

  • Korean entertainment companies like SM entertainment, YG and JYP contribute enormously to the recent K-pop fever. They expand their businesses aggressively to foreign markets which has been successful. This paper seeks to find out their precise strategies to succeed in the global market. Our study focus on SM entertainment which manages successively in the Asian market. As a result, one of their successful strategies on the global market is localization. They rearrange a group with in the members to suit into the local market : for instance, Super Junior, representative boy group, has rearranged and reformed to Super Junior M (mandarin), Super Junior happy (for Japan market), etc. Coopration with SNS (Social Network Service) is another successful strategies of SM Entertainment : page views of K-pop on Youtube achieved more than 0.8 billion in 2013. Furthermore, for marketing, many members play an advertizing model for global products.

  • When two speakers read a text together, the produced speech has been shown to reduce a high degree of variability (e.g., pause duration and placement, and speech rate). This paper provides a quantitative analysis of speech rate variation exhibited in synchronous speech by examining the global and local patterns in two dialects of Mandarin Chinese (Taiwan and Shanghai). We analyzed the speech data in terms of mean speech rate and the reference of "Just Noticeable difference (JND)" within a subject and across subjects. Our findings show that speakers show lower and less variable speech rates when they read a text synchronously than when they read alone. This global pattern is observed consistently across speakers and dialects maintaining the unique local variation patterns of speech rate for each dialect. We conclude that paired speakers lower their speech rates and decrease the variability in order to ensure the synchrony of their speech.

  • In order to examine the suppressive effect of dietary fiber toward the intestinal absorption of lead, an in vitro absorption test using a semipermeable membrane was undertaken. Among dietary fiber components, cellulose showed no suppressive effect, guar gum and carboxymethyl-cellulose, a slight effect whereas citrus pectin and sodium alginate exhibited a remarkable effect. Among fibrous foods tested, rice bran, wheat bran, Chinese cabbage, radish and tangle had a higher suppressive effect while mandarin orange, apple and laver showed a lower effect.

  • 본 연구는 우리 나라 감귤에 발생하는 주요 병의 최근 발생 동향을 파악하기 위하여 수행되었다. 1995년과 1996년 조사 포장에서 12종의 병해가 확인되었는데 그 중에서 검은점무늬병, 더뎅이병 및 잿빛곰팡이병이 감귤 재배에서 주요 병해로 밝혀졌다. 1995년과 1996년 무방제 포장에서 조사한 더뎅이병의 이병과율은 89.0∼100%, 검은점무늬병의 이병과율은 99.0∼99.5%인 반면에 잿빛곰팡이병의 이병과율은 23.0∼24.0%였다. 한편 더뎅이병과 검은점무늬병은 발병율이 높음에도 불구하고 약제 방제가 비교적 잘 되지만 잿빛곰팡이병은 노지에 비해 비닐하우스에서 발생이 많고 약제 방제가 잘 되지 않음을 알 수 있었다. 과거 주요 병해였던 궤양병은 지금은 경미한 피해를 주는 병해로 전환되어 온주밀감 수출단지가 아닌 일부 재배지에서만 경미하게 발생하고 있음이 확인되었다.
