This study was carried out to investigate the effect of the addition of lotus (Nelumbo nucifera) root and leaf powder on the quality characteristics of pork patties. The pork patties were of four types: nothing added (CTL), 0.5% lotus root powder added (LRP), 0.25% lotus root and 0.25% lotus leaf powder added (LRLP), and 0.5% lotus leaf powder added (LLP). There was no significant difference in $L^*$ value (whiteness), cohesiveness, gumminess, chewiness, water holding capacity, VBN content, and total bacterial amount. The moisture was highest in CTL, protein was highest in LRLP, fat was highest in LRLP and LLP, and ash was highest in LRLP (p<0.05). The total polyphenol content of the CTL, LRP, LRLP, and LLP were 3.34, 3.64, 3.90 and 3.90 mg/100 g, respectively. The $a^*$ value was highest in CTL, and the $b^*$ value of LRLP and LLP were higher than those of CTL and LRP (p<0.05). The hardness of CTL and LRP were higher than those of LRLP and LLP, and springiness was lowest in LLP (p<0.05). The cooking loss, thickness change, diameter changes, and pH were highest in CTL (p<0.05). The TBARS was highest in CTL, and was lowest in LLP (p<0.05).

In order to clarify effect of transplanting angle of seedling on shape and growth of ginseng root, ginseng of seedlings were transplanted with $60^{\circ}$ and $90^{\circ}$ respectively, and the root characters of 2-, 4- and 6-year-old ginseng were investigated. The length of main root with 45$^{\circ}$was above 7 cm (standard) but that of $60^{\circ}$ and $60^{\circ}$ was below 7 cm (standard). Number of good lateral root was above 2.3 ea for $45^{\circ}$, 0~$30^{\circ}$, but below 2.3 ea per plant for 60~$90^{\circ}$ respectively. Root fresh weight with $0^{\circ}$, $30^{\circ}$, $45^{\circ}$ was heavier than that with $60^{\circ}$ and $90^{\circ}$. Root disease infection rate was highest with $0^{\circ}$. There were, no significant difference in stem length, stem diameter, leaf area, comber of palmate leaves and leaflets per plant, ratio of missing plant, root diameter in 2-, 4- and 6-year-old ginseng.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of adding lotus root and leaf powder on the quality characteristics of cooked pork patties. The patties were of four types: unadulterated (control, T0), 0.5% lotus root powder (T1), 0.25% lotus root and 0.25% lotus leaf powder (T2), and 0.5% lotus leaf powder (T3). We found that the moisture content was highest in T1 group, and that the protein and fat contents were lowest in T1 (p<0.05). The ash content was lowest in T0 (p<0.05). The cooking yield and moisture retention level were not significantly different among the samples, but fat retention was the highest in T3 (p<0.05). The hardness, springiness, cohesiveness and chewiness were also highest in T3, and the gumminess was lowest in T0 (p<0.05). The $L^*$ values tended to increase with longer storage periods, and that of T0 was the highest after nine days of the storage (p<0.05). By contrast, the $a^*$ values decreased with longer storage periods (p<0.05), with that of T3 being the lowest (p<0.05) during storage periods. The water holding capacity decreased with longer storage periods, and that of T1 was the highest (p<0.05) during storage periods. The pH of T1 decreased, and those of T2 and T3 increased with a longer storage period (p<0.05). TBARS values increased with a longer storage period, and those of T0, T1, T2 and T3 were 8.69, 2.95, 0.88 and 0.55 mg/kg, respectively, after nine days of storage (p<0.05).

Effects on yields, yield components and nutrient content of potassium depression for two or three weeks at various growth stages were investigated in rice (var. Jinheung) under sand culture system.(K 40 ppm 1973) 1. Analysis of variance showed significant difference among treatments of both two-week (at p=0.01) and three-week depression (at p=0.05) in yield. 2. Most sensitive stage to potassium depression on yield appeared two weeks until heading (42% yield decrease) and sensitivity decreased the growth stage is apart from heading either before or after. During 30 days after transplanting two-week potassium depression increased yield, but three-week depression decreased yield. Until about 30 days after heading depression caused poor yield. 3. Root potassium involves in harvest index, filled grain ratio and grain weight with significant correlation and considerably in spikelet per panicle while potassium in leaf sheath+culm involves considerably in spikelet per panicle and panicle per hill. Relative total dry matter weight was significantly correlated with panicle per hill, spikelet per panicle and K or K/Ca+Mg only in leaf sheath+culm. The indications are that root potassium contributes for building sink and efficiency of structure while potassium in leaf sheat+culm primarily for building source, productive structure. 4. Relative yield was significantly correlated with potassium content in root and leaf sheath+culm and with K/Ca+Mg and its ratio before and after depression in root indicating that potassium depression occurs greatly in root and that K/Ca+Mg might have more important role than K content alone under depression. 5. Optimum level of $K_2O$ appears around 3% in leaf blade. 4% in leaf sheath+culm and 1% in root under the assumption that below these level the same content has the same role in relation to yield during growth. The K/Ca+Mg appeares to be 2.5 in root and should not decrease throughout the growth stages. 6. The increase of sodium content in plant by K depression was highest, especially in leaf sheath during the most insensitive period to K depression suggesting that insensitivity may be attributed to partial replacement of Na for K. Partial replacement seems very little in sensitive stage (later stage) and sensitive organ (root).

Antimutagenic effects og Eleutherococcus senticosus Maxim. on the mutagenicty induced by mutagens, 4-NQO, MNNG, $\textrm{NaN}_{3}$, 2-NF, and 1-NP was studied by the Ames test with Salmonella typhimurium TA98 and TA100. The methanol extract ($500\mu\textrm{g}$/plate) of E. senticosus Maxim. showed inhibitory effect on the mutagenicty induced by 1-NP only among the tested mutagens. In S. typhimurium TA98, the methanol extracts of the root, stem and leaf showed inhibitory effects of 54.9, 29.5, and 32.9% inhibition on 1-NP mutagenicity, respectively. In S typhimurium TA100, the methanol extracts of the root, stem, and leaf showed inhibitory effects of 593, 30.2, and 43.6%, respectively. The methanol extract were further fractionated by a subsequent liquid-liquid partition technique with chloroform, butanol, and water. The chloroform ($300\mu\textrm{g}$/plate) fraction of the root, stem and leaf showed the strong antimutagenic effects on the mutagenicity induced by 1-NP in S typhimurium TA98 and TA100. But none or weak antimutagenicities were observed in the butanol and aqueous fraction. The chloroform fractions of root, stem and leaf showed the antimutagenic effects of 61.6~88.6% in a dose-dependent manner. In the antimutagenic mode test, the inhibition effect of root was mainly bio-antimutagenic, whereas stem and leaf were desmutagenic.

An important factor in the production of organic ginseng is the control of $Alternaria$ blight and anthracnose, which mostly affect the leaves in the summer. We compared the effects of a lime-bordeaux mixture (LBM) and agricultural chemicals on the growth characteristics and ginsenoside content in 4-year-old ginseng plants when they were sprayed at 15-day intervals from mid-June to the end of September. The increases in leaf length, and survive-leaf ratio in plants sprayed with LBM were greater than the increases of the control plants, but less than those of agricultural chemicals treatment. The root weight per plant in the plants sprayed with LBM increased more distinctly than that in the control plants, while it was significantly lower than that in plants sprayed with agricultural chemicals. The root yield in plants sprayed with LBM increased by 21% compared to the root yield in the control plants, but decreased by 7% compared to that in plants sprayed with agricultural chemicals because of the decreases in leaf area and survive-leaf ratio. Spraying of LBM had a significant effect on the ginsenoside contents. The total ginsenoside content was highest in the control plants and lowest in the plants sprayed with agricultural chemicals and total ginsenoside contents was great relative to survive-leaf ratio and root weight.

This study was carried out to elucidate the effect of mulching materials on the growth of Chinese chive (Allium tuberusum Rottler) and weed control. Chinese chive was grown under five mulching materials, pine leaf, oak leaf, rice straw, rice hull and sawdust, at the Experimental Farm of Chungbuk National University from June 20, 2009 to September 30, 2009. Amaranthus mangostunus, Digitaria sanguinalis, Portuclaca. oleracea, Echinochioa crus-galli var. frumetacea and Setaria viridis were dominant weeds. Both pine and oak leaves were significantly effective mulching materials in terms of weed control indices in both nursery and field. Soil moisture contents were 1.2~3.7% higher in mulching, especially in oak leaf mulching. Mulching with pine leaf significantly increased plant height, sheath length, leaf length, bulb-, root- and leaf-weights and yield of Chinese chive, but there were no significant differences among the other mulching materials although better than those in non-mulching.

The shoot tip and young leaf of Rhodiola sachalinensis were cultured to invest the plant growth regulator condition for callus induction, shoot and root regeneration. When the shoot tip was sterilized in 2.0% of NaOCl for 20min., the contamination rate was the lowest. And the survival rate of the culture material was good in carbenicillin 500mg/L treatment group. Callus was obtained from shoot tip and young leaf segments. NAA 0.1-1.0mg/L and 2,4-D 0.1-0.5mg/L alone treatment were shown to have a good response on callus induction from shoot tip culture. In the case of young leaf culture, NAA and 2,4-D 0.1-0.5mg/L alone treatment were good in callus induction. In culturing shoot tip NAA 0.5mg/L and BA 0.5mg/L, NAA1.0mg/L and BA 0.lmg/L combination treatment was good in shoot regeneration. The regenerated shoots were rooted on MS medium supplemented with NAA and BA combination treatment. Especially, NAA 1.0mg/L and BA 0.1mg/L combination treatment was effective for root regeneration.

To examine aluminum toxicity on woody plants, Forsythia koreans and Platanus occidentalis cuttings were grown in the pot(48$\times$33$\times$9cm) filled with sand, and treated aluminum solution and ground water (pH 6.75) 3times per week from April 28, 1993 to June 16. Aluminum solution were prepared 1.0, 2.5 and 5.0mM aluminum potassium sulfate, dilulted with ground water. Growth-related characters (Shoot growth, leaf number and leaf chlorophyll content ) and root growth were measured and compared among the treatments. In all growth-related characters(Shoot growth, leaf number and leaf chlorophyll content), differences among the treatments were highly significant. In root growth, differences among the treatments were highly significant for Forsythia koreana cuttings, but not for Platanus occidentalis cuttings.
