겨울철 눈이 내린 도로의 동결을 방지하기 위해 염화칼슘을 제설제로 사용하는데 이것은 용해되어 도로주변의 수목에 피해를 줄 수 있다. 본 연구는 겨울철 제설제로 이용되는 염화칼슘 처리에 따른 복자기의 생장과 생리적 반응을 알아보기 위해 생장 특성, 광색소함량, 광합성 효율, 엽록소형광반응을 측정하고 식물체 및 토양 분석을 하였다. 실험구는 무처리(대조구), 9mM(0.5%), 18mM(1.0%), 54mM(3.0%)의 총 4개의 처리구로 나누어 용해액을 신초가 나기 전, 일주일 간격으로 2회 500ml씩 살포하였다. 염화칼슘 처리 결과, 처리 후 30일째 염화칼슘 농도가 증가함에 따라 0.5% 처리구부터 총엽록소함량, 광합성율, 증산율, 기공전도도, 광계 II활성이 감소하였고 특히 3.0% 처리구에서 두드러졌다. 반면, 엽록소a/b는 염화칼슘 농도가 높아짐에 따라 증가하였고 수분이용효율은 1.0% 처리구에서부터 증가하였다. 처리 후 50일째 3.0% 처리구는 고사하여 측정할 수 없었고, 모든 처리구에서 대조구에 비해 엽록소a, 엽록소b, 총엽록소함량, 광계II활성, 광계II광화학효율이 감소하였다. 이러한 결과는 $Ca^{2+}$와 $Cl^-$이 잎과 토양에 축적되어 수분의 흡수와 전자전달의 방해에 기인한 것으로 염화칼슘 처리구에서 수고생장율의 50% 이상 저하를 가져왔다. 염화칼슘의 처리 농도와 시기에 따른 차이는 있었지만 모든 염화칼슘 처리구에서 생장율은 감소하고 생리적 활성은 둔화되었고 이는 시간이 경과함에 따라 심해졌다.

본 연구는 엽록소형광반응 분석을 이용하여 건조스트레스에 의한 공정육묘의 광화학적 활력을 분석하였다. 토마토와 오이 공정육묘를 8일 동안 건조스트레스 처리를 하였다. 엽록소형광반응(OJIP)과 매개변수 분석을 통해 건조스트레스로 인한 작물의 광화학적 변동을 평가하였다. 엽록소 형광반응(OJIP) 분석 결과, 토마토는 처리 후 5일부터 최대 형광량(P)이 감소한 반면 J-I 단계에서는 엽록소 형광량이 증가하였다. 따라서 생리적 활력이 감소한 것을 알 수 있었다. 오이의 경우 처리 후 4일부터 최대 형광(P) 및 변동 형광량($F_V$)이 낮아지고 J-I 단계의 엽록소 형광 수치가 증가하였다. 엽록소 형광 매개변수 분석한 결과 토마토는 처리 후 5일부터 특히 $ET2_O/RC$와 $RE1_O/RC$가 감소하면서 광계II와 광계I의 전자전달효율이 유의적으로 낮아진 것으로 보인 반면 오이는 처리 후 4일부터 $ET2_O/RC$와 $PI_{ABS}$가 상당히 변화하였다. 결론적으로 $F_V/F_M$, $DI_O/RC$, $ET2_O/RC$, $RE1_O/RC$, $PI_{ABS}$, $PI_{TOTAL}ABS$ 6개의 지표가 공정육묘의 건조스트레스를 판단하는 지표로 선정되었다. 건조스트레스지수(DFI)를 통해 건조스트레스로 인한 작물별 건전성 평가를 하였고 오이의 경우 토마토에 비해 건조 저항성이 낮은 것으로 판단되었다.

삼중항-삼중항 소멸에 의한 광에너지 상향전환 기술(triplet-triplet annihilation upconversion, TTA-UC)은 특정 조건을 만족시키는 유기물들의 에너지 전달 및 융합 과정에 의해 저에너지의 광자를 고에너지의 광자로 변환시키는 신개념 에너지 전환기술이다. 본 연구에서는 실리카 마이크로입자(silica microparticle, SM)를 UC가 구현되는 폴리우레탄 박막 내에 담지 시켜 입사되는 광원의 광산란 효과를 도모함으로써 TTA-UC 효율을 향상시키고, 그 기작에 대해 탐구하였다. Seeded growth method를 통하여 약 950 nm의 균일한 크기를 갖는 SM을 합성하였으며, UC 박막 내에 담지 된 SM의 농도를 증가시킴에 따라 635 nm 광원 조사 시 430-570 nm 영역에서의 UC 세기가 최대 1.64배 증가함을 확인하였다. 삼중항 lifetime 측정을 통하여 광감응제 PdTPBP와 전자수용체 perylene 간의 triplet-triplet energy transfer(TTET) 효율을 분석한 결과, 박막 내에 담지 된 SM이 chromophore 간의 TTET에 미치는 영향은 미미한 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 입사 강도-UC 세기의 상관관계를 분석하여 TTA-UC 효율을 분석한 결과, SM이 박막 내에 존재할 경우 UC 양자효율이 최대 1.5배 향상됨을 확인하였다.

The effects of cadmium ions ($Cd^{2+}$) on the Chl a fluorescence of Ricciocarpos natans were investigated in order to determine whether Chl fluorescence can be used as a biomarker to estimate the physiological responses of plants to cadmium stress. In all plants treated with $Cd^{2+}$, the image of Fv/Fm, which represents the maximum photochemical efficiency of PSII, changed as the $Cd^{2+}$ concentration increased, when treated for 48 h or more. Changes of ${\Phi}_{PSII}$ and $Q_P$ images were recognized even at 10 ${\mu}M$ $Cd^{2+}$. The Chl a O-J-I-P fluorescence transient was also affected even at 10 ${\mu}M$ $Cd^{2+}$. The fluorescence yield decreased considerably in steps J, I and P in plants treated with $Cd^{2+}$, although a typical polyphasic rise was observed in non-treated plants. The Chl fluorescence parameters, Fm, Fv/Fo, Sm, SFIabs, PIabs and ETo/CS, decreased as the $Cd^{2+}$ concentration increased, while the Mo and Kn parameters increased. Peroxidase activity decreased significantly and catalase activity increased as the $Cd^{2+}$ concentration increased. Because of its sensitivity to $Cd^{2+}$ Ricciocarpos natans is useful in experiments investigating the responses of plants to cadmium exposure. Several parameters (Fm, Fv/Fo, Sm, SFIabs, PIabs, ETo/CS, Mo and Kn) can be applied to determine quantitatively the physiological states of plants under cadmium stress.

Ionizing radiation causes many alterations in photosynthetic machineries. However, there is no information about effects of ionizing radiation on the development of photosynthetic machineries in plants. We investigated the greening of etiolated mung bean seedlings after gamma-irradiation of 50 to 300 Gy. The irradiation inhibited seedling growth with great dependence on the radiation dose. In particular, growth of stems was more affected than that of hypocotyls. Irradiated leaves showed inhibition in growth, aberration in morphology, and yellowing in color depending on the radiation dose. Contents of photosynthetic pigments such as chlorophylls and carotenoids were significantly decreased in the irradiated leaves. The apparent electron transport rate for photosynthesis, ETR, was similarly changed depending on the radiation dose. However, the maximal photochemical efficiency of Photosystem II (PSII), Fv/Fm, was little affected by the irradiation. Moreover, the 50-Gy seedlings maintained the control level of light saturating for photosynthesis and showed slightly higher Fv/Fm values in spite of significant decreases in the photosynthetic pigment content and ETR. These results suggest that the inhibition of the overall photosynthetic capacity couldn’t be causally relatqaed with the repression in the initial development of irradiated seedlings and that the overall photosynthetic machineries can develop and work to some extent as a concerted system for photosynthesis even after exposure to acute doses of ionizing radiation.

In this study, the bio-phytoremediation and phytoremediation technologies were applied to the soils contaminated with total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) and heavy metals to evaluate the remediation efficacy from May 2012 to December 2013. Poplar (Populus bonatii Levl.) and Sun Hemp (Crotalaria juncea L.) were selected and planted in phytoremediation practice. These plants were also utilized in the bio-phytoremediation practice, with the addition of earthworm (Eisenia fetida) and petroleum-degrading bacteria (Pseudomonos sp. NKNU01). Furthermore, physiological characteristics, such as photosynthesis rate and maximal photochemical yield, of all testing plants were also measured in order to assess their health conditions and tolerance levels in adverse environment. After 20 months of remedial practice, the results showed that bio-phytoremediation practice had a higher rate of TPH removal efficacy at 30-60 cm depth soil than that of phytoremediation. However, inconsistent results were discovered while analyzing the soil at 100 cm depth. The study also showed that the removal efficiency of heavy metals was lower than that of TPH after remediation treatment. The results from test field tissue sample analysis revealed that more Zinc than Chromium was absorbed and accumulated by the tested plants. Plant height measurements of Poplar and Sun Hemp showed that there were insignificant differences of growth between the plants in remediation plots and those in the control plot. Physiological data of Poplar also suggested it has higher tolerance level toward the contaminated soils. These results indicated that the two testing plants were healthy and suitable for this remediation study.

Recent studies on the photoreactivity of l,4-unsaturated systems have changed some ideas that were firmly established in this area of research for many years. Thus, we have described the first examples of 2-aza-di-$\pi$-methane (2-ADPM) rearrangements promoted by triplet-sensitization and by single electron transfer (SET) using electron-acceptor sensitizers. These reactions afford N-vinylaziridine and cyclopropylimine photoproducts in the first examples of di-$\pi$-methane processes that yield three-membered ring heterocycles. l-Aza-1,4-dienes also undergo SET-promoted l-aza-di-$\pi$-methane (l-ADPM) rearrangements via radical-cation intermediates using electron acceptor sensitizers. In some cases, alternative cyclizations yielding different carbocycles and heterocycles have been observed. The l-ADPM and di-$\pi$-methane (DPM) reactions also occur via radical-anion intermediates on irradiation using electron donor sensitizers. On the other hand, the photoreactivity reported for $\beta$,${\gamma}$-unsaturated aldehydes for many years was decarbonylation to the corresponding alkenes. However, our studies demonstrate that these compounds undergo the oxa-di-$\pi$-methane (ODPM) rearrangement with high chemical and quantum efficiency. A comparison of the photochemical reactivity of $\beta$,${\gamma}$-unsaturated aldehydes and corresponding methyl ketones has shown that the ketones do not undergo the ODPM rearrangement while the corresponding aldehydes are reactive by this pathway. Monosubstituted $\beta$,${\gamma}$-unsaturated aldehydes at C-2 undergo the ODPM rearrangement yielding the corresponding cyclopropane carbaldehydes diastereoselectively. Finally, we have described the first examples of reactions, similar to the well know Norrish Type I process, which take place in the triplet excited state of $\beta$,${\gamma}$-unsaturated carbonyl compounds by excitation of the C-C double bond instead of the carbonyl group.

Influence of gamma rays on the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 cells was investigated in terms of a bidirectional hydrogenase, which is encoded by hoxEFUYH genes and responsible for biohydrogen production. Irradiated cells revealed a substantial change in stoichiometry of photosystems at one day after gamma irradiation at different doses. However, as evaluated by the maximal rate of photosynthetic oxygen evolution, maximal photochemical efficiency of photosystem II, and chlorophyll content, net photosynthesis or photosynthetic capacity was not significantly different between the control and irradiated cells. Instead, transcription of hoxE, hoxH, or lexA, which encodes a subunit of bidirectional hydrogenase or the only transcriptional activator, LexA, for hox genes, was commonly enhanced in the irradiated cells. This transcriptional enhancement was more conspicuously observed immediately after gamma irradiation. In contrast, hydrogenase activities were found to somewhat lower in the irradiated cells. Therefore, we propose that transcription of hox genes should be enhanced by gamma irradiation in a LexA-mediated and possibly photosynthesis-independent manner and that this enhancement might not induce a subsequent increase in hydrogenase activities, probably due to the presence of post-transcriptional and/or post-translational regulatory mechanisms.

Characteristic changes in chlorophyll fluorescence from thalli of red alga, Porphyra, under high salt stress and during subsequent recovery were investigated, and the differences in the sensitivity to the stress among four species of Porphyra with different intertidal distributions were compared. By the treatment of NaCl with $9\%$ or higher concentrations, photochemical efficiency (Fv/Fm) decreased in a biphasic pattern: a rapid decrease was observed within 1­3 h and followed by a slow decline. The decrease of Fv/Fm was mainly due to the increase of Fo without significant increases of Fm. When the thalli treated with $15\%$ NaCl for 6 h were returned to natural sea water for recovery, the increase of Fv/Fm also showed a biphasic pattern: a rapid increase of Fv/Fm was observed within 2 h and followed by a slow increase. Differences in the sensitivity to salt stress among the four species could be found during recovery after the treatment of severe salt stress. After the treatment of $20\%$ NaCl for 6 h, Fv/Fm decreased below 0.3 in all of the four Porphyra species, and the species living in upper parts of the intertidal zone (P. suborbiculata and P. pseudolinearis) could recover better compared with the species in lower parts of the intertidal zone (P. seriata and P. yezoensis), during recovery for 24 h. The species collected from the coast of the South Sea seemed to be more tolerant than those in the East Sea.
