Blackgram (Vigna mungo) is more salt tolerant than mungbean (Vigna radiata). This study was initiated to know whether the accumulation pattern of mineral ions in different plant parts plays a significant role in the differences in salt tolerance between the two Vigna species. Different mineral ions, viz. N, Cl, Na, K, Mg and Ca in different organs of two varieties of each of blackgram- Barimash-l (susceptible one) and Barimash-2 (tolerant one), and mungbean-Barimung-3 (tolerant one) and Barimung-4(susceptible one), were analyzed after growing with 0, 50, 75 and 100 mM NaCl solutions. The two crops showed a decreased but similar pattern of total N accumulation under saline conditions. The tolerant variety of both the crops showed a less reduction in total N than the susceptible one. Leaves showed the maximum while stem the minimum N, irrespective of levels of salinity. C $l^{[-10]}$ and N $a^{+}$ accumulation increased with the increasing salinity levels. Interestingly, similar to a halophyte, the salt tolerant blackgram exhibited conspicuously higher amount of N $a^{+}$ in the shoot than the salt-susceptible mungbean. However, the tolerant varieties showed less amount of N $a^{+}$ than the susceptible one, especially in blackgram. Seeds of both Vigna spp. accumulated the minimum amount of N $a^{+}$ than other plant parts. $K^{+}$ accumulation decreased by salinity in most of the plant parts, except seeds. Blackgram showed larger reduction in K than mungbean. The $Mg^{++}$ increased in leaves, petioles and stem by salinity while decreased in the roots, podshells and seeds in both the crops. Salinity increased $Ca^{++}$ accumulation in all plant-parts except roots of both Vigna spp. Apparently, the leaves of mungbean accumulated higher concentration of $Ca^{++}$ than blackgram. Varietal differences in the accumulation pattern of $K^{+}$, $Mg^{++}$ and $Ca^{++}$ were not clear. It was concluded that blackgram, presumably, possesses a similar salt tolerance mechanism to halophyte, and the pattern of accumulation of mineral ions in blackgram and mungbean was not fully ascribed to the differences in salinity tolerance between the two Vigna species.gna species.ies.s.ies.

To select appropriate herbicides for adzukibean and mungbean, a series of experiments was carried out in both field and pot from 1980 to 1983. Tolerance to the herbicides tested was highest in soybeans and followed by mungbean and adzukibean in the order. Pre-emergence herbicides showed relatively low phytotoxicity were chlorambem, linuron, and metribuzin for adzukibean and alachlor and butachlor for mungbean. Post-emergence herbicides showed no external phytotoxicity for adzukibean and mungbean were alloxydim, Dowco 453, fluazifop, etc.. For mungbean, terbutryn (1.5 kg, a.i./ha) which is pre-emergence herbicide showed the best weeding control efficacy but some possible phytotoxicity. Among post-emergence herbicides, acifluorfen (300 g, a.i./ha) showed the best weeding efficacy with no yield reduction though some phytotoxicity which recovered within 20 days. Compared to single herbicide application, the mixture or systemic treatments of herbicides showed much higher weeding control efficacy and seed yields: the systemic treatments of linuron (500 g, a.i./ha) / Dowco 453 (180 g, a.i./ha) or linuron (500 g, a.i./ha) / fluazufop (260 g, a.i./ha) for adzukibean and the mixture treatment of alachlor (1.31 kg, a.i./ha) / acifluorfen (150 g, a.i./ha) for mungbean, respectively.

Mungbean should be harvested several times according to its physiological characteristics and weather conditions of cultivation region. In Korea, mungbean is usually sown in June and harvested three or four times, and the cultivated area is being rapidly reduced. Therefore, the author developed cultivation techniques of mechanical harvesting suitable for the weather conditions of the southern part of the Korean peninsula. The optimum sowing time of mungbean for mechanical harvesting in southern part of Korea is around July 20. When sown around July 15, mungbean should be harvested twice and then the mechanical harvesting of mungbean was not possible. Meanwhile, when sown after July 25, the mechanical harvesting was possible but the maturing period was longer and the seed yield was decreased. Therefore, it is safe to say that in Korea the mechanical harvesting of mungbean is possible for the middle part of Korea when the plant is sown before July 20 and for the southern coastal region of Korea when sown after July 20 (if July 20 is set up as the baseline for the southern part of Korea). Out of Keumseong and Owool, which are popularized cultivars in Korea most, Owool is determined to be most appropriate for mechanical harvesting. Owool is favorable for mechanical harvesting because, when compared to Keumseong, it is higher both in plant height and in pod height, and also the seed yield is better.

This study was performed to investigate differences of antioxidant activity, the content of free amino acids including GABA(gama-amino butyric acid) among mungbean cultivars grown in Highland area (Jinbu) and to compare those between seeds and sprouts. In DPPH (diphenyl picrydrazyl) radical scavenging activity, 'Jangan' mungbean activity was more higher than that of other cultivars. The content of total phenolic compounds of mungbean ranged from 1,186 to $1,493\;{\mu}g/g$ in seed and 2,321 to $2,783\;{\mu}g/g$ in sprout. Among amino acids of seeds, the content of glutamic acid was highest in 'Soseon' mungbean, and contents of almost amino acids increased during sprouting of seeds. The content of GABA that are known as a material having high functional effects on human body was also analyzed. When the relatively high content of GABA was observed in seeds of almost mungbean grown in highland, and their contents rapidly increased after sprouting from seeds. As a result of this experiment, it is expected that mungbean will be developed to a good alternative crop having high value as functional food materials in highland area of Korea.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the quality characteristics of mungbean starch gels that were prepared with different concentrations (0, 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5%) of peach seed powders (PSP), which exhibit antioxidant characteristics. Mungbean starch gel samples were prepared and subjected to quality characteristics such as moisture content, general components, color, texture profile analysis, total polyphenol contents, DPPH radical scavenging activity, and sensory qualities. The L-value and the a-value for color decreased significantly, whereas the b-value increased significantly as the PSP concentration increased (p<0.05). In the texture profile analysis, the mungbean starch gel with 1.5% PSP showed significantly lower degrees of hardness, cohesiveness, springiness, gumminess and brittleness (p<0.05). The total polyphenol content was highest in the 1.5% PSP to which mungbean starch gel was added, which also showed a higher than 70% DPPH radical scavenging activity level in a dose-dependent manner (p<0.05). In the sensory test of the mungbean starch gel, its sensory scores for flavor and taste were highest in the 0.5% PSP to which mungbean starch gel was added.

Particle size distribution, pasting properties by Rapid Visco Analyser, and textural properties of acorn, mungbean and buckwheat starches, which are the basic raw materials for mook, are compared. The major particle size of mungbean starch was $10{\sim}30$ micron, whereas acorn and buckwheat starches were $5{\sim}20$ micron. At the same starch concentration, mungbean starch had the highest peak viscosity, breakdown and setback. Acorn starch showed the lowest peak viscosity and breakdown. The peak viscosity of buckwheat starch was close to that of mungbean, however the trough and final viscosity were comparable to those of acorn starch. At the same peak viscosity, mungbean starch showed the lowest trough and final viscosity and the highest breakdown and setback. Acorn starch was differentiated from buckwheat starch in that the former had the higher value of setback. The textural properties of mungbean starch gel were significantly different from others. The texture of gels from acorn and buckwheat starches revealed that only the hardness and gumminess were different each other. The hardness of starch gels were negatively correlated with trough and final viscosity, and positively correlated with setback.

Mungbean is used for not only seed but sprout, so, consumption of mungbean has been on the rise in Korea. Life cycle of mungbean tends to be short among Legume. For that reason, Mungbean can be harvested for various cropping system and season per regions and farmers regardless of sowing date and harvesting date. So, Prior research is needed about growth characters and life cycle of mungbean per sowing period. Mungebean cultivar 'Dahyun' and 'Sanpo' supplied by Korea Agriculture Technology Promotion Agency(KOAT) is cultivated in wagner pot. Sowing period is proper time of seeding in Jeollanam-do and Gyeongsangnam-do that is major cultivation region of mungbean in korea from early May to mid July every 2 weeks. Length at maturity stage tends to increase from early May(sowing date: 4^th May) to early July(sowing date: 5^th July), but after that, It tends to decrease from mid July(sowing date: 19^th July). Number of branches and nods shows a similar trend. Length of pod has no tendency and no difference per sowing date. Number of pod per plants has also no tendency per sowing date. Test plots sowing in late May has the most number of pods.(Sanpo 22.9pods, Dahyun 16.8) Number of seeds per pod tends to increase to late May and Test plots sowing in mid July has the most number of seed per pod. In case of sowing at early May, Days of emergence is 7d. its summation of temperature is 132.2℃. After that, it tends to decrease to mid June. After mid June, Days of emergence is fixed to 3d. Average temperature growing up in this season, Summation of temperature from sowing to emergence takes the lowest point in test plots sowing in mid June.(Sanpo 88.6℃, Dahyun 88.6) Days of flowering tends to fasten from early May to mid July. Two cultivar shows same level. Days of maturity tends to fasten to mid June, after that tends to slow. In case that many research results about growth characters and life cycle mungbean per sowing period are drawn, it is expected that it result in increase of cultivation area and income of farmer.

The physicochemical properties and gel forming properties of mungbean and buckwheat crude starches were investigated. The results were as follows; 1. The granule size and shape of mungbean crude starch were $11~32\mu\textrm{m}$ and oval, and those of buckwheat crude starch were $3~10 \mu\textrm{m}$ and polygonal. 2. The amylose conteut of mungbean crude starch and buckwheat crude starch were 78.0% and 26.4% respectively. 3. The blue value of mungbean crude starch and buckwheat crude starch were 1.030 and 0.409, respectively. 4. Periodate oxidation of mungbean crude starch resulted that amylose had the average molecular weight of 95, 648, degree of polymerization of 590 and amylopectin had the degree of branching of 5.4, glucose unit per segment of 18.6, and periodate oxidation of buckwheat crude starch resulted that amylose had the average molecular weight of 133, 690, degree of polymerization of 825 and amylopectin had the degree of branching of 5.2, glucose unit per segment of 19.2 5. Water binding capacity of mungbean crude starch was 185.1% and that of buckwheat was 209.9% 6. The pattern of change in swelling power of mungbean crude starch for increasing temperature started to increase at $60^{\circ}C$ and increased rapidly from $70^{\circ}C$, and that of buckwheat increased slowly from $60^{\circ}C$ to $90^{\circ}C$ without rapid increase. 7 The ranges of gelatinization temp. of mungbean and buckwheat crude starches were 63. 9-$109^{\circ}C$ and 52.5-84.$2^{\circ}C$, respectively. 8. The gelatinization patterns for 6% munbean crude starch and 8% buckwheat crude starch were investigated by Brabender amglograph. Mungbean crude starch showed the initial pasting temperature of 77.6$^{\circ}C$ without peak height, and buckwheat crude starch showed that of $62.5^{\circ}C$ without peak height. In addition, sensory evaluation for sample starch gels (mungbean, buckwheat, cowpea) was done. 1. The difference of sensory characteristics for each starch gel was significant. 2. The sample starch gels were regarded as 'Mook' by pannels. 3. 74.44% of the degree of Mooklike was explained by hardness.

In this study, the selected 789 lines having agronomic values out of over 2,500 mungbean (Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek) germplasms, examined the 27 characters including hypocotyl color and leaf size of 401 lines in 2005 and of 388 lines in 2006, and analyzed the contents of vitexin and isovitexin in these mungbean germplasms. The average contents of vitexin and isovitexin in mungbean of the 401 lines used in 2005 were 8.71($1.1{\sim}13.4$) and 9.54($0.9{\sim}15.9$) mg/g, respectively, and the correlation coefficiency ($R^2$) of the contents of vitexin and isovitexin was 0.958. Nine lines including VC3890B were selected to be the ones containing high vitexin and isovitexin. The average contents of vitexin and isovitexin in mungbean of the 388 lines used in 2006 were 10.17($2.0{\sim}15.9$) and 10.64($0.2{\sim}17.6$) mg/g, respectively, and the correlation coefficiency ($R^2$) of the contents of vitexin and isovitexin was 0.958. Six lines including VC4096-2B-4-B-2-B were selected to be the ones containing high vitexin and isovitexin. The contents of vitexin and isovitexin were higher in the mungbean with larger leaves and longer ripening period out of the main characters.

Results from an innovative approach to improve remediation in the rhizosphere by encouraging healthy plant growth and thus enhancing microbial activity are reported. The effect of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (Am) on remediation efficacy of wheat, mungbean and eggplant grown in soil spiked with polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) was assessed in a pot experiment. The results of this study showed that Am inoculation enhanced dissipation amount of PAHs in planted soil, plant uptake PAHs, dissipation amount of PAHs in planted versus unplanted spiked soil and loss of PAHs by the plant-promoted biodegradation. A number of parameters were monitored including plant shoot and root dry weight, plant tissue water content, plant chlorophyll, root lipid content, oxido-reductase enzyme activities in plant and soil rhizosphere and total microbial count in the rhizospheric soil. The observed physiological data indicate that plant growth and tolerance increased with Am, but reduced by PAH. This was reflected by levels of mycorrhizal root colonization which were higher for mungbean, moderate for wheat and low for eggplant. Levels of Am colonization increased on mungbean > wheat > eggplant. This is consistent with the efficacy of plant in dissipation of PAHs in spiked soil. Highly significant positive correlations were shown between of arbuscular formation in root segments (A)) and plant water content, root lipids, peroxidase, catalase polyphenol oxidase and total microbial count in soil rhizosphere as well as PAH dissipation in spiked soil. As consequence of the treatment with Am, the plants provide a greater sink for the contaminants since they are better able to survive and grow.
