This study presents a new nationwide quantitative precipitation estimation (QPE) based on the hybrid surface rainfall (HSR) technique using the weather radar network of Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA). This new nationwide HSR is characterized by the synthesis of reflectivity at the hybrid surface that is not affected by ground clutter, beam blockage, non-meteorological echoes, and bright band. The nationwide HSR is classified into static (STATIC) and dynamic HSR (DYNAMIC) mosaic depending on employing a quality control process, which is based on the fuzzy logic approach for single-polarization radar and the spatial texture technique for dual-polarization radar. The STATIC and DYNAMIC were evaluated by comparing with official and operational radar rainfall mosaic (MOSAIC) of KMA for 10 rainfall events from May to October 2014. The correlation coefficients within the block region of STATIC, DYNAMIC and MOSAIC are 0.52, 0.78, and 0.69, respectively, and their mean relative errors are 34.08, 30.08, and 40.71%.

Turnip mosaic Potyvirus (TuMV) and Ribgrass mosaic Tobamovirus (RMV) are major viruses infecting crucifer crops in Korea. RMV-FG22 was isolated from oriental cabbage. TuMV isolates were TuMV-CA7 from oriental cabbage, TuMV-TU and TuMV-TU2 from turnip, TuMV-RA from rape, TuMV-ST from stock, and TuMV-R9 from radish. The six isolates of TuMV were classified by symptom expression in inbred lines of crucifers. TuMV-CA7 and TuMV-TU isolates infected mostly oriental cabbages; TuMV-ST, TuMV-TU2, and TuMV-R9 infected radishes; and TuMV-RA infected both oriental cabbages and radishes. Crops used in six combinations of mixed infections were 'Tambok' cultivar resistant to TuMV,'SSD63' susceptible inbred line of oriental cabbage, pure line of leaf mustard, and‘Daeburyungyeorum’cultivar of radish. External symptoms in 'Tambok' and radish by each of the six single infections of TuMV showed similar results by bioassay. Synergistic response of necrotic death occurred within 1 week after inoculation in all combinations mixed with TuMV and RMV-FG22 on leaf mustard. In oriental cabbage 'SSD63' , synergism of necrosis occurred in four TuMV isolates, but not in TuMV-ST and TuMV-R9. In oriental cabbage 'Tambok' , synergism was expressed only in two combinations of RMV-FG22+TuMV-CA7 and RMV-FG22+TuV-TU, but other combinations had the same symptoms produced by RM-FG22. In radish‘Daeburyungyeorum’, only mild mosaic symptoms were induced by combinations of RMV-FG22+TuMV-CA7, RMV-FG22+TuMV-TU, RMV-FG22+TuMV-RA, and RMV-FG22+TuMV-R9. Mosaic and severe mosaic were induced in combinations of RMV-FG22 +TuMV-TU2 and RMV-FG22+TuMV-ST, respectively.

For the survey of viruses infected in peanut cultivated in Korea, peanut seeds and leaves showing viral symptoms were collected from their growing areas. Typical symptoms on virus infected peanut leaves including mosaic, mottle with necrosis, yellowing, stripe or vein banding and stunts were observed. Two viruses isolated from the naturally infected peanuts were identified as Bean common mosaic virus(BCMV-PSt) and Peanut mottle virus(PeMoV) by their host range, immunosorbent elcetron microscopy(ISEM), direct immuno staining assay(DISA), RT-PCR, and intracellural symptoms. Direct negative staining method by electron microscope showed filamentous particles of about 780 m in length as well as inclusion bodies. In ultrathin sections of BCMV-PSt and PeMoV infected tissues, cytoplasmic cylindrical inclusions as well as filamentous virus particles were observed in the cytoplasm of parenchyma cells. ISEM revealed filamentous particles strongly decorated with antiserums of BCMV-PSt and PeMoV Peanut seeds were stained with BCMV-PSt and PeMoV antisera indicating the possibility of seed transmission far these viruses. Seedlings germinated from peanut seeds which reacted with antiserums of BCMV-PSt by DISA showed mild mottle or stripe symptoms while mosaic and necrotic mottle symptoms were observed for PeMoV-positive seedlings. Filamentous particles were strongly decorated with each antiserum under ISEM observation. BCMV-PSt coat protein gene of about 1.2 Kbp was amplified by RT-PCR. Altogether these results indicate that BCMV-PSt is the most prevalent virus infecting peanut in Korea.

An isolate of Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV), called as Lag-CMV, was identified from Lagenaria leucantha var. gourda showing mosaic symptom, and its properties was compared to Fny-CMV (subgroup IA) and As-CMV (subgroup IB) by host reaction in several indicator plants, dsRNA analysis, RT-PCR analysis, restriction enzyme profile of the PCR products and nucleotide sequence of coat protein gene. Lag-CMV was similar to As-CMV used as a control CMV by the induced chlorotic spot on inoculated leaves and mosaic symptoms on upper leaves of N. tabacum. cv. Xanthi nc. In the cucumber and zucchini squash, Lag-CMV and As-CMV induced a mild mosaic symptoms than that of Fny-CMV. Size and shapes of local lesions on Chenophodium amaranticolor and Vigna unguiculata induced by Lag-CMV was similar those by Fny-CMV or As-CMV. In experiments of dsRNA profiles and RT-PCR analysis of coat protein gene, Lag-CMV was come within subgroup I CMV. Moreover, restriction enzyme analysis using EcoRI, SalI, MspI, XhoI, and HindIII of the RTPCR products and nucleotide sequence analysis of the coat protein gene showed that Lag-CMV belong to a member of CMV subgroup IB of the same to As-CMV.

The virus infecting French bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) was identified as Bean Common Mosaic Virus(BCMV) based on the host range, symptomatology, serology, morphology of virus particles and inclusion bodies. Isolates of BCMV were obtained from seeds of P. vulgaris collected at Suweon, Jangsu and Jinju in Korea. French bean produced vein clearing, mosaic, stunting and leaf curling. Symptom of Chenopodium quinoa was local lesions on the inoculated leaves, not on the upper leaves. The electron micrograph of the virus from French bean was flexuous approximately 750nm in length. Cylindrical and pinwheel cytoplasmic inclusion bodies were observed in French bean leaf infected by BCMV. BCMV from the French bean was transmitted through seed and green peach aphid, Myzus persicae. The thermal inactivation point was $55\~60^{\circ}C$, dilution end point was $10^{-3}\~10^{-5}$ and longevity in vitro was $2\~3$ days for BCMV from French bean. The isolates of BCMV reacted positively against BCMV antiserum. The extract of BCMV infected bean leaves, Azukibean mosaic virus (AZMV) and Cowpea aphid borne mosaic virus(CaMV) also reacted with BCMV antiserum, however, BCMV and CaMV showed the spur in agar gel diffusion test.

Concentric mosaics are made with arranging and summing of video frames by using common spacial standards. Compared with previous works on 3-D wavelet transform coding, we have made important design considerations to enable flexible partial decoding and bit-stream random access. A just-in-time(JIT) rendering engine of the compressed concentric mosaic is developed. However, computationally, it is still demanding to accomplish the real-time rendering. Only the contents for specific scene representation are need to be decoded by maintaining compressed data. Thus our proposed algorithm is able to render real concentric mosaic by using lifting scheme instead of wavelet transform.

Barely yellow mosaic(BaYMV) and barely mild mosaic (BaMMV) bymoviruses are both transmitted by the soil-inhabiting fungus Polymyxa gramnis, and are responsible for economic losses in barley crops in Asia and Europe. Because chemical control of the vector is ineffective, the losses can only be prevented by growing resistant barley cultivars. The objective of this study is to produce resistant barley plants by transformation with viral coat protein(cp) genes. Resistance tests of T1 plants transformed with the BaYMV CP gene showed that at least four independent lines had clear resistance to BaYMV but two other lines were highly susceptible with severe symptoms. The CP gene was detected in all resistant T1 plants by genomic PCR. Most of T2 progenies derived from the resistant T1 lines also showed resistance. In contrast, only one out of 21 independent T2 lines transformed with the BAMMV CP gene tested showed clear resistance to BaMMV, and others were very susceptible. Further analyses of resistance and CP gene expression are in progress.

Ammi majus (white lace flower, Unbelliferae) is an ornamental plant used for cut-flower arrangements worldwide. A potyvirus was isolated from its leaves with mosaic and chlorotic symptoms in the cultivated field of Chiba, Japan. Compared with Japanese homuort mosaic virus (JHMV) previously isolated from Cryptotaenia japonica, it showed similar characteristics in host reactions and molecular properties. The nucleotide sequences of coat protein and 3'- nontranslated region were highly homologous and shared 87％ and 91％ identities with those of JHMV, respectively. This virus was thus supposed to be an isolate of JHMV and designated as JHMV-Am. Phylogenetic tree was constructed using CP nucleotide sequences of the two isolates and other potyviruses previously reported. JHMV-Am and JHMV fell into a cluster with Korean strain of Zantedeschia mosaic virus (ZaMV-KR). However, low identity in amino acid sequences was found in the termini of CP genes between the two isolates of JHMV and ZaMV-KR.

Freesia, a member of the Iridaceae family, has fragant, tubular shaped flowers and is very popular ornamental plants in the world. Diseased freesia plants showing systemic leaf streak mosaic symptoms were collected from a cultivated farm in Kyonggi province, Korea in 2003, and its causal agents were investigated. Two viruses, Cucumber mosaic virus (Fr-CMV) and a potyvirus, were identified from the leaf tissues of the diseased freesia based on sequence analysis and host range tests. CMV-Fr could infect systemically on Chenopodium quinoa, C. amaranticolor, N. glutinosa, and N. benthamiana, and this biological property is distinguishable from ordinary strains of CMV. A filamentous potyvirus-shaped virus could not infect general indicator plants by mechanical inoculation. Single RT-PCR products was successfully amplified with a set of degenerate primers specific to the Potyvirus genus and total nucleic acids from the infected tissues, and was cloned into the pGEMT-Easy vector. Nucleotide sequences confirmed it belongs to the Potyvirus genus with either a new species or an isolate of Freesia mosaic virus (no information is available for the FrMV). This is the first report of FrMV in Korea and more characterizations of the two viruses are in progress.

Ultrastructural observation was conducted for the cells of oriental cabbage, Brassica campestris ssp. pekinensis 'Chungawang', inoculated simultaneously with Turnip mosaic virus (TuMV-ACT2-4vq) and Ribgrass mosaic virus (RMV-Ca1dn2) which were known as major destructive viruses of oriental cabbage in Korea. In cells infected with RMV alone, the virus particles were located as bundle or scattering in cytosols and vacuoles, which were typical ultrastructures of tobamovirus. Vessels of xylem were compacted with RMV particles. The cells infected only with TuMV had the cluster of virus particles scarcely and the typical potyvirus inclusions of scrolls, pinwheels, tubes and laminated aggregates in cytosols. The TuMV particles were jammed lineally between tonoplasts. In double infection, the two unrelated viruses of TuMV-ACT2-4vq and RMV-CA1dn2 were located together in a cell, and typical properties of each virus were also observed. The potyvirus inclusions and the tobamovirus particles were mixed entirely in cytoplasm. The virus particles of RMV wre presented strikingly near and in the center of potyvirus inclusions. In vascular cells, the tobamovirus particles were located abundantly than those in single infection. The potyvirus inclusions were embedded in the cluster of RMV particles in phloem parenchyma cells and the vascular elements were degenerated severely.
