Stenotrophomonas maltophilia BW-13 is a potent biocontrol agent to control crisphead lettuce bottom rot caused by Rhizoctonia solani. To define the optimum conditions for the mass production of the S. maltophilia BW-13, we have investigated optimum culture conditions and effects of various carbon sources on the bacterial growth. The optimum initial pH and temperature were determined as pH $6.0\~7.0 and $35^{\circ}C$, respectively. For the selection of effective carbon source for the mass production, we tested the low molecular carbon sources such as sucrose, glucose, lactose, maltose, manose and the high molecular carbon source such as dough conditioner, rice bran, corn starch, sweet potato starch. As the results, the addition of dough conditioner in a basal medium ($1.25\%\;K_{2}HPO_4,\;0.38\%\;KH_{2}PO_4,\;0.01\%\;MgSO_4{\cdot}7H_{2}O,\;0.5\%\;Yeast extract$) was able to achieve higher cell density and the antifungal activity than others. Therefore, the basal medium containing $3\%$ dough conditioner (named as dough conditioner medium) was finally selected the optimized media for the mass production of BW-13 strain.

In order to use whey lactose in alcohol fermentation, we investigated fermentation conditions of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Kluyveromyces fragilis in lactose-hydrolyzed whey with ${\beta}-D-galactosidase$. and optimum conditions of the above two yeasts through oxygen regulation by Pasteur effect which is the characteristic of the yeasts were determined. In addition, optimum condition for application of fermented whey in Tak-ju process was also examined. With 0.7% ${\beta}-D-galactosidase$, 93% lactose was hydrolyzed at pH 6.5 in 30 minutes. Because S. cerevisiae is unable to ferment galactose, the production of ethanol by S. cerevisiae was lower than that of K. fragilis in lactose-hydrolyzed whey. But ethanol productivity by S. cerevisiae was higher than that by K. fragilis in glucose added whey. In fermentation with oxygen regulation and addition of 60 g/l glucose, the ethanol productivity of K. fragilis and S. cerevisiae were 18.9 g/l (11.8% increase) and 43.5 g/l (22.1% increase), respectively. It appeared that the ethanol productivity of S. cerevisiae was higher than thst of K. fragilis under the above conditions. In ethanol fermentation added rice starch, Aspegillus oryzae hydrolyzed 80% of starch in 60 hours, and the production of ethanol was 80.2 g/l

The viscometric properties of six kinds of waxy starches of Olchal and Hankang(waxy rice), Chalborie (waxy barley), Yullmoo (waxy Job's tears), Chajoe (waxy foxtail millet), Chalsusu (waxy great millet) and Chalocsusu (waxy corn) were investigated. The increase in optical transmittance of 0.1% starch suspensions occurred at $55^{\circ}C$ for Hankang, $60^{\circ}C$ for Olchal, Chalborie, Chajoe and Yullmoo and $65^{\circ}C$ for Chalsusu and Chalocsusu, and further inrreased $70^{\circ}C$ for Hankang and Olchal, $75^{\circ}C$ for Chajoe, Chalsusu, Chalocsusu and Yullmoo and above $85^{\circ}C$ for chalborie. Amylogram on 5%, starch suspensions showed that gelatinization temperature and maximum peak height were 850 B.U. at $62^{\circ}C$ for Hankang, $65^{\circ}C$ and 980 B.U. for Olchae, $64^{\circ}C$ and 1,080 B.U. for Chalborie, and 1,410 B.U. at $69^{\circ}C$ for Yullmoo, and 1,280 B.U. at $71^{\circ}C$ for Chajoe, and 1,260 B.U. at $71^{\circ}C$for Chalsusu and 1,420 B.U. at $70^{\circ}C$ for Chalocsusu. Swelling power of starches was $38{\sim}55$, and Hankang, Olchal, Chajoe, Chalocsusu and Yullmoo starches had higher swelling power than Chalsusu and Chalborie starches. Intrinsic viscosity of them was $1.43{\sim}1.75$ and hardness of them highly relevant to the gelatinization properties.

This experiment was conducted to investigate the opimum media, media amount and planting density of nutri-culture for the high quality and yield of wild vegetable, Liguliaria fischeri Turez. The fried rice hull was recognized best media among perlite, sand and fried rice hull for nutri-culture of Ligularia fischeri Turcz. The yield on fried rice hull media at early growing stage was lower, but higher than in other media at late growing stage. Therefore, total yield in fried rice hull media was 15-29% higher than that of the existing perlite media. Growth and yield of Ligularia fischeri Turcz. were not significantly different between medium amounts, therefore considering economical efficiency and stability, the optimum medium amount was 105 $\iota/m^3$, Yield by planting density increased in the high density and 50 plants/$m^2$ was considered as proper planting density in nutri-culture of Liguliaria fishcheri Turcz.

This study was carried to investigate the changes in physical and chemical properties during preparation of Yukwa. Protein content of glutinous rice was decreased during soaking time and acid and pH values were increased while contents of lipid and ash were not changed. Particle size distribution showed thate average particle size of 7 days soaking treatment smaller than those of 3 days and starch damage of glutinous rice flour was increased during soaking time. The major flavor components after soaking were found ethyl ester acetic acid, ethanol, 2-butan -ol, 2-methyl 1-propanol, 1-butanol, 3-methyl 1-butanol and 1-pentanol, propanoic acid. Content of acetic acid and butanoic acid were rapidly increased during soaking time. Results for ratio of storage modulus(G') and loss modulus(G') in glutinous rice flour dough indicated $tan{\delta}$ was increased for a while and decreased as frequency increased. G' value was very similar with G' value after steaming which means rubber-like property while G' and G' value were changed after during storage time. Treatment at $-20^{\circ}C$ had the highest hardness for cutting degree of dough. There was no difference in color value between different water contents. Hardness of Bandegi (sheet) was decreased as water content increased and the highest popping value was obtained at 18% of water contents. Adding 3% soaked bean had higher redness value of Yukwa and lower value in yellowness.

This study was carried out to assess the agronomic characters and physicochemical properties of floury and chalky-endosperm mutant lines induced by chemical mutagen treatment to rice varieties, Hwacheongbyeo and IR24. Linkage analysis of a floury-endosperm gene was carried out using linkage testers. The grain size of brown rice of the mutants was smaller than that of the original varieties. The l, 000-grain and 1$\ell$ weight were lighter in the mutants compared with those in the original varieties. The compound starch granules in the endosperm cell of the mutants showed a loosely-packed crystalline structure. Amylose contents in mutants ranged from 16.9 to 28.5%. Crude protein contents of the mutants were not significantly different from the original rice variety, Hwacheongbyeo, but white core mutant(line 47106) derived from IR24 showed higher protein(l1.32%) compared with IR24(8.30%). The mutants showed slightly harder gel characteristics, and much lower viscosity in Amylograph than original varieties. Steamed rice-cakes from mutant lines showed greater volume than those from original varieties. During the process of alcohol fermentation, Brix in the mutants(especially floury mutants) decreased faster and the alcohol production after 10-day fermentation was much greater in the mutants than in the original varieties. Three different gene loci for floury endosperm characteristics were identified from the allelism test among mutant lines, and the genes were tentatively symbolized as flo-a, flo-b and flo-c, respectively. A floury gene, flo-a, was linked with lg(liguleless) gene in the linkage group N, with R.V. 5.76$\pm$1.72%.

This study aimed to establish a liquid fermentation process to increase the alcohol productivity of distilled soju using domestically grown sorghum. After preparing mash with different ratios of sorghum and rice, the optimal amount of raw material was determined, and sorghum pretreatment methods, enzyme types, and modified nuruk were tested. The soluble solids (°Brix) of the saccharification solution ranged from 3.00 to 25.20 for bacterial α-amylase and 4.20 to 20.80 for fungal α-amylase. Bacterial α-amylase was more suitable for starch saccharification. At 20% sorghum and 80% rice mash, the alcohol content was 15.11%, showing that soluble solids and alcohol content increased with higher rice content. When puffed sorghum was used with bacterial α-amylase, alcohol content rose to 16.55%, showing puffed sorghum is suitable for fermentation without a separate saccharification process. In mash with 20% puffed sorghum and 80% rice, adding modified nuruk resulted in alcohol contents of 16.73% and 16.28%, respectively, for groups with and without nuruk. The alcohol content of the distillate after vacuum distillation showed a similar trend, suggesting modified nuruk has little effect on alcohol productivity and requires further research. When modified nuruk was added, alcohol and esters increased, but sulfur compounds, which are perceived as off-odors, also rose. Therefore, it is better not to use modified nuruk in distilled soju made with sorghum. In conclusion, the process using 20% puffed sorghum, 80% rice, and bacterial α-amylase is deemed feasible for improving the productivity of distilled soju through liquid fermentation with puffed sorghum and enzymes.

The effects of foliar application of phosphate was investigated in the light of plant physiological point of view. The phosphate applied on the foliar both in meiosis and heading time was penetrated considerably into the rice. The amount of P absorbed by foliar application at high temperature was higher than that at low temperature but still considerable amount of P was absorbed at low temperature. The phosphate applied on younger flag leaf was absorbed more vigorously than the second and third leaves. The absorbed P on leaf was translocated to the panicle, especially on the brown rice starch, then moved to another panicle wherever the phosphate was needed. The major fraction of absorbed P under high temperature condition was T.C.A. soluble-Ba insoluble phosphate of mainly phytic form but Ba soluble-EtOH insoluble fraction, sugar phosphate ester, was identified as dominant P under low temperature condition.

The lees of Korean traditional wine called as Jubak or Sul-jigemi in Korea is byproduct from alcohol fermentation industry, which is remnant of fermentation broth after filtration, centrifugation, distillation, or sedimentation during aging. Since, Korean traditional wines are produced from edible plant sources such as rice, foxtail millet, fruits and medicinal herbs with nuruk (a traditional fermentation starter and starch degrader), the Jubak from rice wine (takju), medicinal herb wine (yakju) and fruits wine are considered as safe byproduct and have various useful bioactivity. Considering the recent rapid increased production of Jubak from takju industry, and the reinforcement of dispose of Jubak as waste material in worldwide, the development of efficient reuse process for Jubak is necessary in traditional wine industry. In this review, the status of current industry, research and patent trends in relation with Jubak production, treatment, utilization and renewal was analyzed and different bioactive compounds including phenolic acids from Jubak were provided. Jubak is not any more waste material, and is the source of bioactive functional materials for food, cosmetics and medicinal industry. To develop the efficient and economic renewal technology including recovery process for bioactive substances from Jubak, systematic collaboration and research among the industry, academy and government is necessary.
