In ginseng fields, soil organic matter content showed significant positive correlation with soil moisture content and root yield. Soil moisture content showed significant positive correlation with root yield, stem diameter and stem length but significant negative correlation with relative missing plant rate, defoliation and alternalia bright infection. For more than 2 Kg yield per Kan under present cultivation technique, soil moisture appeared to be greater than 17% and organic matter 2%. Many fields (58%) were below this requirement and belong to sand loam and loam soils.

Nucleoside diphosphate kinase (NDPK) is involved in multiple signaling pathways in mammalian systems, including G-protein signaling. Arabidopsis NDPK2, like its mammalian counterparts, is multifunctional despite its initial discovery phytochrome-interacting protein. This similarity raises the possibility that NDPK2 may play a role in G-protein signaling in plants. In the present study, we explore the potential relationship between NDPK2 and the small G proteins, Pra2 and Pra3, as well as the heterotrimeric G protein, GPA1. We report a physical interaction between NDPK2 and these small G proteins, and demonstrate that NDPK2 can stimulate their GTPase activities. Our results suggest that NDPK2 acts as a GTPase-activating protein for small G proteins in plants. We propose that NDPK2 might be a missing link between the phytochrome-mediated light signaling and G protein-mediated signaling.

This field experiment was conducted to determine the optimum nitrogen level and plant population for silage and grain corn cv. Suweon No. 19 at Suweon from 1981 to 1982. The results obtained are summarized as follows: 1. Leaf Area Index (LAI), Loding Index (LI) and stalk diameter were increased by raising nitrogen level but ear height was decreased. And tasseling date and stalk height were not influenced by nitrogen level. 2. LAI, LI and ear height were increased by raising plant population but tasseling date, stalk height and stalk diameter were decreased. 3. Numbers of missing hill and barren plants were increased by raising nitrogen and dense plant population respectively. Grain yield and total digestible dry matter yield in 5,550 plants with 10kg of nitrogen fertilization per 10a were recommendable for grain and silage corn respectively.

Agrivoltaic systems (AVS) is defined as combining farm-grown crops with photovoltaic panels (PV) installed several meters above the ground. Solar radiation (W/㎡), photosynthetic photon flux density (PPFD, µmol/㎡/s), air temperature (℃), vapor pressure (kPa), soil moisture (㎥/㎥), soil temperature (℃), wind direction (˚), and wind speed (m/s) were measured under the AVS in Boseong-gun during winter barley season. Data was collected by 5 minute interval. All data can download at Github site (https://github.com/chojaeil/AVS_Boseung). To gap-filling missing solar radiation data during about two weeks, the conversion coefficient from solar radiation to PPFD was estimated as 0.41. Further, according to the ratio of diffuse radiation to direct radiation, the maximum value among the twenty PPFD sensors under the AVS was related to the PPFD value of filed.

This study is to estimate the spatial soil moisture using Terra MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) satellite data and machine learning technique. Using the 3 years (2015~2017) data of MODIS 16 days composite NDVI (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) and daily Land Surface Temperature (LST), ground measured precipitation and sunshine hour of KMA (Korea Meteorological Administration), the RDA (Rural Development Administration) 10 cm~30 cm average TDR (Time Domain Reflectometry) measured soil moisture at 78 locations was tested. For daily analysis, the missing values of MODIS LST by clouds were interpolated by conditional merging method using KMA surface temperature observation data, and the 16 days NDVI was linearly interpolated to 1 day interval. By applying the RNN-LSTM (Recurrent Neural Network-Long Short Term Memory) artificial neural network model, 70% of the total period was trained and the rest 30% period was verified. The results showed that the coefficient of determination ($R^2$), Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), and Nash-Sutcliffe Efficiency were 0.78, 2.76%, and 0.75 respectively. In average, the clay soil moisture was estimated well comparing with the other soil types of silt, loam, and sand. This is because the clay has the intrinsic physical property for having narrow range of soil moisture variation between field capacity and wilting point.

Effect of soil water on the growth of Panax ginseng(2 years old) was investigated through pot experiment. the results were as follows. 1. Optimum soil moisture content for root yield appeared to be 65.5% of field capacity(22.1% fresh weight basis) and at 31.5%(10.7% fresh weight basis) relative growth rate was nil. 2. Under suboptimum condition of soil moisture, emergence of shoot and leaf unfolding was delayed. The rate of emergence of shoot and leaf area was also decreased while missing shoot rate was increased. 3. Root yield was positively correlated with leaf area per plant(r=0.91 **), stem diameter (r=0.73**), stem length(r=0.71 **) fresh top yield(r=0.93**) and negatively with missing shoot rate(r=-0.77**). 4. Fresh root weight showed negative correlation(r=-0.80**) with water content of root indicating that tissue is more compact when grown at sufficient water.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of soil covering materials such as rice bran, rice hull and saw dust on garlic growth through a field experiment in wintertime. Rice bran was the smallest in term of particle size, but it recorded the highest level of bulk density. The missing plant rate after winter season was relatively high, 59.3%, and that of soil covering materials stood at the low level of 10%. Other growth factors recorded the highest level during application of rice bran. In terms of chemical properties of soil-covering materials, rice bran recorded the highest level of 1.84, 2.34 and 0.16% in the content of N, P, and K, respectively. The subsoil temperature was higher by application of rice bran as compared to that of other materials which stood at the lowest temperature ($-9^{\circ}C$).

Xanthmonas campestris pv. campestris, causal agent of Black rot of crucifers, were isolated and identified from crucifer host. In order to determine the characters of X. c. pv. campestris associated with pathogenicity, Tn5 mutagenesis was carried out by conjugating with E. coli pJB4J1. Transconjugants were plate- assayed for missing cellulase, protease and amylase activity. A cellulase negative mutant was selected and tested for pathogenicity. Light microscopy and Scanning electron microscopy revealed that substomatal tissues were colonized by mutant, but was far less extensive than those by wild type. Stomatal surface and substomatal tissue appeared to have degraded by only wild type in 24 hrs and progression of pathogenesis was distinct in 48 hrs. In 6 days, wild type proliferated well in the tissue facilitated by cellulase activity. As a result, cellulase was determined as the important factor in pathogenesis.

Numerous researches on network self-configuration have been conducted on Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) and Ad Hoc network but the results have not been applied yet for factory automation. This paper presents development of intelligent process management systems conducting process monitoring and control irrelevant to physical position of a plant operator. The systems are indispensable for diagnosis of rotating machines which cannot exploit wired network. The system was implemented in a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA) using Bluetooth communication protocol. When a mobile terminal reaches to communication range of the process management server, the server detects the mobile terminal to reconfigure plant network automatically. The server authenticates a user of the terminal to download and installs monitoring and control program considering authorized level of the user. If the terminal leaves communication range of the server, it deletes the node from the network and removes the program automatically to save resources and prevent security problems such as missing terminal. Operation of developed functions was verified in a testbed emulating steel-making plant.

Relationships among root yield, planting density (PD), missing plant rate (MR), leaf area index (LAI) , leaf area per plant(LAP), root weight(RW), number of harvested root(RN) and leaf fall plant rate (LFP) were investigated by survey of white ginseng plantations in Pungi and Geumsan area. In Geumsan PD was about twice than in Pungi but yield was low with high rates of MR and LFP. Yield depended on RN in high PD cultivation while on RW in low PD. The effect of MR on yield was prominent in high PD cultivation. PD showed insignificant negative correlation with yield and no clear relation with MR. RN depended on PD and was especially limited by MR, Yield depended on LAI at harvest time and especially at maximum growth time. LAI was not different between high and low PD area but depended only on RN in high PD and only on LAP in low PD area, and limited by MR in both PD. LAP depended highly on RW and this fact seems to be the very reason that LAI could not increase with the increase of PD. All fields showed the suboptimum LAI.
