Effect of the microbial product made of Bacillus stearothermophilus DL-3, which was isolated from the soil and identified in this study, and rice bran on microorganisms in soil and growth of lettuce (Red skirt lettuce) and Chinese cabbage (Ga rack new No.1 Chinese cabbage) was investigated. Total numbers of microorganisms in the pot with untreated soil, treated with standard amount of microbial product and treated with double amounts of microbial product for growth of lettuce after 6 weeks were 2.78${\times}$10$^{7}$ CFU/g, 2.72${\times}$10$^{8}$ CFU/g and 3.63${\times}$10$^{8}$ CFU/g. Total numbers of microorganisms in the soil without treatment of microbial product and treated with standard amount of microbial product were 2.06${\times}$10$^{8}$ CFU/g and 5.49${\times}$10$^{8}$ CFU/g. Total numbers of microorganisms in the pot with untreated soil, treated with standard amount of microbial product and treated with double amounts of microbial product for growth of Chinse cabbage after 6 weeks were 1.43${\times}$10$^{7}$ CFU/g, 3.42${\times}$10$^{8}$ CFU/g and 7.22${\times}$10$^{8}$ CFU/g. Total numbers of microorganisms in the soil without treatment of microbial product and treated with standard amount of microbial product were 5.75${\times}$10$^{8}$ CFU/g and 7.96${\times}$10$^{8}$ CFU/g. On basis of leaf length, leaf width, leaf number, wet weight and dry weight, the growth of lettuce and Chinese cabbage on the soil treated with microbial product was faster than that on the untreated soil. The treatment of microbial product in the soil resulted in the increase of useful microorganisms, which seemed to enhance the growth of lettuce and Chinese cabbage.

This study was conducted to evaluate the allelopathic effect of aqueous extract of Ganghwa domestic mugwort (Artemisia spp.) on vegetables and its related allelo-chemicals. When the receptor vegetables, such as Chinese cabbage, lettuce, and red radish, were treated with aqueous extract obtained from Sajabalssuk (A. $sp^*I$), Ssajuarissuk (A. $sp^*II$) or Ssajarissuk (A. $sp^*III$), their germination rate, leaf number, plant height, and root length were restricted with increasing concentration of aqueous extract. Allelopathic effect was the highest in radish, than lettuce and Chinese cabbage in order. The growth of topplant were more inhibited then root growth observing in restriction of plant height, root length, and chlorophyll contents. The plant height, the root length of red radish were 53.3 and 61.2% and their fresh weights were 19.8 and 26.4% compared to those of controls, respectively. A. $sp^*III$ showed the highest allelopathic effect among the donor plants. In HPLC analysis, 7 phenol compounds were identified in A. $sp^*I$ and A. $sp^*II$, and, in A. $sp^*III$, and hydroxybenzoic acid and phenylacetic acid were further identified as allelochemicals. It is considered that their plant growths were variously inhibited by the amounts and types of allelochemicals in aqueous extracts. To increase the productivity of farm land after cultivation of mugwort, these results can be useful to select the following field crops.

The present study was designed to observe whether nutritional education on children or mothers of the children who avoid to eat vegetables can improve the preferences for the vegetables of the subjects. The subjects were 45 children who are fourth to sixth grade of primary school in Bibong. They were assigned to one of three groups which are Control, Children Education and Mothers Education groups. Control group was not given any special education, while experimental groups were given nutritional education for 4 weeks. The effects of education was evaluated in the aspects of preference changes for vegetables, nutritional knowledge, attitude and food behavior of the subjects The results are summarized as follows. 1. Preferences to cucumber, lettuce, chinese cabbage and raddish were high in three groups while greenonion, onion, lotus roots and red pepper didn't suit for their taste. 2. Significantly increased scores for the preference to red pepper, pumpkin, Dorajee(root of chinese bell-flower), braken, mushroom was shown only in the children who had nutritional education while the children in the group of Mothers Education improved their preference only cabbage and lotus roots. 3. Nutritional knowledge of the children in Children Education group has improved significantly(p<0.05). While there was no significant difference between control and Mothers Education group. 4. When scores for food habit of mother and children were estimated, there was no significant difference among three groups. However, score of food habit in children was higher than that of mothers. 5. Food habit and nutrition knowledge of mother were not well corelated with dietary attitude and behavior of their children. These results indicate that the program of nutrition education in the present study can improve the food choice of children for vegetable and correct one-sided food habit. The program applied in this study would serve a kind of model for the dietetic teachers to guide the children who mainly dislikes vegetables.

A study was conducted to survey the fauna and the field density ofp lant parastic nematodes on important cash crops in Korea. Studies were carried out with sampling about five hundred grams of soil around roots of eighteen different kinds of crops from fifty five locations throughout the country. Nematodes were elutriated from over three thousand soil samples, and identified into sixteen different genera. Among them Ditylenchus species were found to be the most abundant in fields of garlic and onion, Helicoty-lenchus of sesame, chinese cabbage and mulberry, Meloidogyne of red-pepper, tomato, cucumber and peanut, Pratylenchus of mulberry and peach, Pratylenchus of apple, Chinese cabbage and radish, Trichodorus of potato, and Xiphinema of peach and potato. Field density of Meloidogyne species was increased with the longer continuous cultivation of red-pepper in the same field.

Color values of anthocyanins from seven natural food colorants, such as purple-fleshed sweet potato (PSP), red flower cabbage (RFC), red cabbage (RC), grape skin (GS), black rice (BR), egg plant (EP), and fig fruit (FF) were evaluated, resulting in the selection of four color sources with higher color values including PSP, RFC, RC and GS. The stabilities of anthocyanins from the selected colorant sources against metal ions, ascorbic acid, ultra-violet light, and heating were investigated. Anthocyanins from PSP and GS were degraded significantly by $Mn^{2+}$, while those from RFC and RC were degraded by $Cu^{2+}$. Asthocyanins from PSP were the most stable against the color-degrading factors, followed by RFC, RC, and GS in descending order.

The response surface methodology was used for monitoring the changes in organoleptic properties of chinese cabbage kimchi adding pinemushroom during storage at l0$\^{C}$. The sensory score of kimchi were high from 4th to 8th days and low at around 12th day. At the 1st day of storage, the more pinemushroom was added, the lower showed the score of sensory evaluation. But in case of the score for taste and flavor, the more pinemushroom and red pepper powder were added together, the higher it showed. At the 4th day, the score of color, flavor, taste and overall palatability increased. Especially, the score was the highest when kimchi was added with 5.0∼6.0% of pinemushroom and 3.0∼3.5% of red pepper powder. At the 8th day, the score of mouth-feel was high. The kimchi adding pinemushroom showed the highest scores of sensory evaluation during the storage period from 4th to 8th days at 10$\^{C}$.

The antimutagenic effect of green-ye1low vegetables on the mutagenicities induced by N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine(MNNG) and N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) in Salmonella assay system and also their inhibitory effect on AZ-521 human gastric cancer cells were studied. Twenty-four items from twenty six kinds of vegetables(92%) revealed antimutagenic activity toward MNNG (p< 0.0l, 0.05). Perilla leaf, Korean cabbage, cauliflower, lettuce, mustard leaf, water dropwort, small water dropwort, carrot and burdock inhibited the mutagenicity more than 80%. The methanol extracts of the vegetables also showed the antimutagenic activity toward NDMA (p< 0.01, 0.05). Especially, perilla leaf, kale, soybean sprout and onion inhibited more than 80% of the NDMA induced mutagenicity in S. typhimurium TA100. Small water dropwort and perilla leaf exhibited the strong inhibitory effect (97~100%) on the growth of the AZ-521 human gastric cancer cells. Soybean sprout, water dropwort, broccoli, crown daisy, green red pepper, red pepper leaves, spinach, cabbage and sweet potato also inhibited growth of the cancer cells (p < 0.001~0.05).

To develop natural crab-like flavorants from red snow crab Chionoecetes japonicus cooker effluent (RSCCE), the flavor was analyzed during the concentration of RSCCE up to $40^{\circ}Brix$. Using solid phase microextraction (SPME)/gas chromatography (GC)/mass selective detection (MSD), 30 volatile flavor compounds were detected in four RSCCE samples (10, 20, 30, and $40^{\circ}Brix$). These comprised 12 aromatic compounds, 5 N-containing compounds, 2 5-containing compounds, 2 alcohols, 2 aldehydes, and 7 miscellaneous compounds. The amounts of all volatiles except alcohols and aldehydes increased significantly with the concentration (p<0.05). Of the volatiles detected, the most abundant was a dimethyl trisulfide with an odor like onion/cooked cabbage. Of the N-containing compounds (nutty, roasted peanut-like odor), 2-ethyl-5-methylpyrazine was the most abundant, followed by 2,5-dimethylpyrazine and 2-methyl-5-isopropylpyrazine in that order (p<0.05). The N- and S-containing compounds with characteristic odors detected in this experiment are thought to play a positive role in RSCCE during concentration.

Effects of animal manure application on the yield of crops were studied. Red pepper (1995) and Chinese cabbage (1996) were planted in pot with chicken, cow and pig manure application at $1.6mg\;ha^{-1}$, $3.2mg\;ha^{-1}$. Silage corn was grown in pot at 100%, 75%, 50% and 0%of recommended chemical fertilization rate among previously manure applied soils to predict the reduction of fertilizer. Results were as follows: Chemical properties of manure applied soils for two years were increased as pH 6.1~7.1, OM $17.1{\sim}23.7g\;kg^{-1}$, $P_2O_5$ $370{\sim}1.058mg\;kg^{-1}$, while those of chemical fertilizer applied soils were pH 5.8. OM $16.9g\;kg^{-1}$, $P_2O_5$ $249mg\;kg^{-1}$. Exchangeable cation and $P_2O_5$ content were increased in chicken manure applied soils than those in manure applied soils. Red pepper yield in manure applied pots was 121~192% compared to that in only chemical fertilizer applied pot. Effects of manure application was in the order of pig, chicken and cow manure. Chinese cabbage yield in manure applied pots was 55%~111% compared to that in chemical fertilizer applied pot. Effects of manure application were higher in red pepper than in Chinese cabbage. Fresh corn yield showed no significance between reducing 0% and 25% of recommend fertilization rate in previously manure applied plots, except in previously cow manure applied plots at $1.6mg\;ha^{-1}$. Fresh corn yield showed a positive correlation ($r=0.75^{**}$) with organic matter content and showed a positive correlation ($r=0.85^{**}$) with total nitrogen in untreated plot among previously manure applied soils.
