Background and objective: Moth orchids in the vegetative stage are suitable for a multi-layer growing environment in a closed-type plant factory which can be a good alternative that can reduce production costs by reducing cultivation time and energy cost per plant. This study was conducted to find out the optimal rhizospheric environment for different irrigation methods without a potting medium and rhizospheric ventilation for the vegetative growth of young Phalaenopsis hybrid 'Blanc Rouge' (P. KV600 × P. Kang 1) and Phalaenopsis Queen Beer 'Mantefon' in a closed-type plant factory system. Methods: The one-month-old clonal micropropagules with bare roots rapped with a sponges were fixed on the holes of styrofoam plates above growth beds, and were watered using the ebb-and-flow (EBB) and aeroponic (AER) methods with Ichihashi solution (0.5 strength) once a day at 06:00 (P) or 18:00 (S), and both (PS). Rhizospheric ventilation (V) was also applied to change the temperature, relative humidity, and CO₂ concentration of the beds. Plants potted into sphagnum moss and watered once a week were used as the control group. Results: After 12 months of treatment, the growth characteristics of the EBB groups were the best among the treatment groups without a medium, but no effect of irrigation timing was observed. V reduced the temperature, relative humidity and CO₂ concentration of the beds. Whereas, EBB+V (ebb-and-flow with ventilation) improved plant growth and reduced the occurrence of disorders and withering. Especially, EBB+V showed a similar performance to the control group. Conclusion: The results indicated that the optimal irrigation method without a potting medium for producing middle-aged potted moth orchids was the EBB system with forced rhizospheric ventilation. Therefore, further studies on the optimal ventilation method and moisture control of the crown need to be carried out to develop the irrigation system without a potting medium for vertical farming in closed-type plant factories.

A vegetative filter strip (VFS) is one of the best management practices (BMPs) to reduce pollutant loads. This study aims to assess the effectiveness of VFS in dense upland field areas. The study areas are agricultural fields in the Maedae (MD), Gaa (GA), and Jaun (JU) watersheds, where severe sediment yields have occurred and the Korean government has designated them as non-point management regions. The agricultural fields were divided into three or four clusters for each watershed based on their slope, slope length, and area (e.g., MD1, MD2). To assess the sediment trapping (STE) and pesticide reduction efficiency (PRE) of VFS, the Vegetative Filter Strip Modeling System (VFSMOD) was applied with three different scenarios (SC) (SC1: VFS with rye vegetation; SC2: VFS with rye vegetation and a gentle slope in VFS range; and SC3: VFS with grass mixture). For SC1, there were relatively short slope lengths and small areas in the MD1 and GA3 clusters, and they showed higher pollutant reduction (STE>50%, PRE>25%). For SC2 and SC3, all clusters in GA and some clusters (MD1 and MD3) in MD show higher pollutant reduction (>25%), while the uplands in JU still show a lower pollutant (<25%). With correlation analysis between geographic characteristics and VFS effectiveness slope and slope length showed relative higher correlations with the pollutant efficiency than a area. The results of this study implied that slope and slope length should be considered to find suitable upland conditions for VFS installations.

This study was conducted to analyze changes of irrigation water and soil volumetric water content by irrigation method of field soil in Saemangeum reclaimed tideland. The main test irrigation methods was surface drip irrigation, sprinkler irrigation, and sub drip irrigation. In addition, the correlation between irrigation amounts and crop yield by irrigation method was investigated. For soil volumetric water contents increases by 25%, surface drip irrigation took 1.5 hour, sprinkler irrigation took 2.0 hours, and sub drip irrigation took 3.0 hours. As a result of analyzing the irrigation amounts according to the yield, the surface drip irrigation was 2.66 mm/day in the seedling stages, 3.31 mm/day in the vegetative growth stages, and 5.09 mm/day in the flowering stages. Sprinkler irrigation was 2.90 mm/day in the seedling stages, 3.87 mm/day in the vegetative growth stages, and 7.11 mm/day in the flowering stages. Sub drip irrigation was 2.42 mm/day in the seedling stages, 3.09 mm/day in the vegetative growth stages, and 4.87 mm/day in the flowering stages. It was analyzed that there was a statistically significant difference in irrigation amounts by fresh weight and irrigation method (F=4.002, p=0.022), and irrigation amounts by dry weight and irrigation method (F=3.499 p=0.034). Surface drip irrigation was judged to be more appropriate than sprinkler irrigation or sub drip irrigation for field crops in Saemangeum reclaimed land.

As apple trees mature, it is important to maintain good light distribution within the canopy to produce marketable fruits. Tree thinning is the selective removal of a proportion of trees growing in the orchard to provide more growing space and a good light environment for the remaining trees. This study was conducted over 3 years (14-16 years after planting) to investigate the influence of tree thinning on vegetative growth, yield, fruit quality, and blooming in the 14 years old slender spindle 'Fuji'/M.9 apple trees planted with the tree space of 3.2×1.2 m. The trees were placed in a control group (no thinning; 260 trees per 10 a) or a tree thinning group (thinned 50% of the control; 130 trees per 10 a). The tree thinning successfully improved light penetration, yield per tree, fruit red color, and yield efficiency for 3 years, and the tree thinning controlled the occurrence of biennial bearing. However, tree thinning significantly decreased accumulated yield per 10 a compared with the control. The vegetative growth, yield per tree, soluble solid contents, and blooming were not clear by the occurrence of biennial bearing in the control. These results indicated that tree thinning was a good method for improving light penetration and preventing biennial bearing in the old 'Fuji'/M.9 high-density apple orchards.

Water dropwort (Oenanthe stolonifera DC.) is a perennial herbaceous plant that grows wild throughout Korea. As of 2020, 24,819 tons (51.7% of open field, 48.3% of facility) are produced in 1,278 ha (59.9% of open field, 40.1% of facility) nationwide. Water dropwort, which is rich in nutrients such as vitamins and iron, is mainly cultivated by vegetative propagation method using local traditional species, however, seed propagation and breeding of cultivars are insufficient so far. Since securing, propagating and continuous characterization of various genetic resources are required to breed new cultivars, this study was conducted to compare the main characteristics of domestic genetic resources and to improve their utilization. Growth characteristics such as plant height, fresh weight, plant type, and flowering date were investigated for the 89 varieties of genetic resources owned by Jeollabuk-do Agricultural Research and Extension Services after vegetative propagation in the individual pots. Also, the morphological image information of leaves and flowers was constructed. Genetic resources were collected nationwide and originated in 30 regions including Hwaseong, Siheung and Jeju. Their plant types could be classified into straight, intermediate and creeping types according to their morphological characteristics, and at this time, the number of intermediate types accounted for the largest proportion. Flowering was carried out under high-temperature and long-day conditions in summer. According to the flowering date, they could be classified into early, middle and late flowering varieties, and at this time, the middle flowering varieties occupied the largest proportion. As a result of the investigation of vegetative growth characteristics, varieties with long plant height, heavy fresh weight and thick stem thickness were identified. Along with this result, it is thought that classification and selection of genetic resources for various purposes will be possible through additional investigations such as analysis of components and antioxidant activity. Moreover, it is judged that such results can be used as basic data for breeding new water dropwort cultivars in the future.

방선균은 토양 속에 다양하게 존재하는 미생물의 일종으로 그람 양성 진정세균으로 이차대사산물을 생산하는 시기와 포자 착생이 시작되는 세포분화의 시기가 밀접한 관련이 있다. S. griseus는 streptomycin을 비롯한 다양한 종류의 endopeptidase 및 exopeptidase들을 생산한다. 방선균에서의 protease 생산은 많은 경우에 이차대사산물이 형성되거나 형태분화가 유도되는 시기에 동시에 시작된다는 점에서 Pretense가 이차대사물질 생산 및 세포분화에 일정한 기능을 수행할 것이 라는 점을 시사하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 S. griseus IFO 13350에서 클로닝한 SGPD protease가 각 strain에서 형태학적으로나 생리적으로 어떠한 gene dosage 효과를 미치는지 조사하는 것이었다. sprD 유전자가 S.lividans를 숙주로 사용한 시스템에서 대량발현이 성공적으로 되는 것을 확인한 후, 본 유전자를 클로닝한 S. griseus IFO13350 균주와 이의 A-factor 결손주인 S. griseus HH1에 형질전환하였다. S. griseus HH1과 S. griseus IFO13350에서는 protease activity가 벡터만 도입된 대조군과 sprD 유전자가 들어간 형질전환체에서 큰 차이를 보이지 않았다. 또한 S. griseus IFO 13350 및 HH1 모두에서 생리학적·형태학적 분화의 차이를 발견하지 못하였다. Chymotrypsin계열의 pretense를 암호화하는 유전자만이 S. griseus에서 발현이 repression된다는 사실을 본 연구 결과를 통하여 알게 되었다. 이를 바탕으로 sprD유전자와 동일계열의 chymotrypsin 계열의 유전자들이 공통적으로 S. griseus에서 repression 되는 일반적인 기전이 있을 것으로 판단, chymotrypsin계열 유전자들의 promoter부분의 염기 상동성을 조사하였다 번역개시부위 바로 상부 유전자부터 상동성을 조사한 결과 적어도 상당부분의 염기배열이 잘 보존된 지역이 존재함을 알게 되었다. 향후 이들 발현기구의 조절기구를 연구함으로서 protease의 기능을 밝히는데 좋은 단서를 제공할 것으로 판단된다.

Studies on carbon flux in the oceans have been highlighted in recent years due to increasing awareness about climate change, but the coastal ecosystem remains one of the unexplored fields in this regard. In this study, the dynamics of carbon flux in a vegetative coastal ecosystem were examined by an evaluation of net and gross ecosystem production (NEP and GEP) and $CO_2$ exchange rates (net ecosystem exchange, NEE). To estimate NEP and GEP, community production and respiration were measured along different habitat types (eelgrass and macroalgal beds, shallow and deep sedimentary, and deep rocky shore) at Gwangyang Bay, Korea from 20 June to 20 July 2007. Vegetative areas showed significantly higher ecosystem production than the other habitat types. Specifically, eelgrass beds had the highest daily GEP ($6.97{\pm}0.02g\;C\;m^{-2}\;d^{-1}$), with a large amount of biomass and high productivity of eelgrass, whereas the outer macroalgal vegetation had the lowest GEP ($0.97{\pm}0.04g\;C\;m^{-2}\;d^{-1}$). In addition, macroalgal vegetation showed the highest daily NEP ($3.31{\pm}0.45g\;C\;m^{-2}\;d^{-1}$) due to its highest P : R ratio (2.33). Furthermore, the eelgrass beds acted as a $CO_2$ sink through the air-seawater interface according to NEE data, with a carbon sink rate of $0.63mg\;C\;m^{-2}\;d^{-1}$. Overall, ecosystem production was found to be extremely high in the vegetated systems (eelgrass and macroalgal beds), which occupy a relatively small area compared to the unvegetated systems according to our conceptual diagram of a carbon-flux box model. These results indicate that the vegetative ecosystems showed significantly high capturing efficiency of inorganic carbon through coastal primary production.

동전마름병을 일으키는 Sclerotinia homoeocarpa는 한국에서 가장 일반적인 한지형 잔디 병원균이다. 경기도, 충청남도, 전라북도, 경상북도 등 다양한 지역에서 분리한 13개 균주로부터 유도된 nit 변이균주를 이용하여 의한 체세포화합성군(vegetative compatibility group, VCG) 평가가 이루어졌다. 돌연변이주는 질소동화작용에 근거하여 nit1, nit2, nit3, NitM 등 4가지 유형으로 분류되었다. 균주간에 돌연변이주 발생정도는 크게 차이가 있었으며 최대 15개의 변이주를 생산한 균주가 있는 반면에 전혀 형성하지 못한 균주도 존재하였다. 선택배지에서 4가지 돌연변이주 유형 중에 nit1과 NitM의 발생빈도(80%)가 높았으며, nit2와 nit3은 발생빈도가 매우 낮았다. 한 개의 큰 체세포화합성군 그룹과 4개의 작은 그룹이 18개 돌연변이주로부터 결정되었다. Nit 변이균주를 이용하여 의한 VCG 평가는 매우 효율적이었으며, 향후 한국의 Sclerotinia homoeocarpa균의 효율적 관리를 위한 생태학적 역학적인 면을 연구하기 위해서는 보다 많은 지역으로부터 분리된 균주의 평가가 필요하다.

막걸리에서 분리된 B. subtilis의 특성을 파악하고자 영양유무(buffer와 TSB), pH(pH 7과 4, 막걸리 pH 4), adaptation 조건에 따라 초고압에 의한 저감 효과를 살펴보았다. B. subtilis 포자는 영양유무, pH에 관계없이 환경 적응력이 있었고, 초고압에 의한 저감효과도 미미하게 관찰되었다. B. subtilis 영양세포는 영양유무와 pH에 따라 대조구(non-treatment)의 균수 차이가 관찰되었고, 초고압에 의한 저감 효과도 다르게 나타났다. B. subtilis 영양세포는 저온에서 영양과 pH가 불리한 환경에서 endospore를 형성하여 적응을 하게 되고 초고압에 의한 저감효과는 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 특히 막걸리에 접종한 경우는 buffer(pH 4)와 TSB(pH 4)보다 적응력이 약한 것으로 관찰되었다. B. subtilis 포자를 접종한 막걸리의 저장 실험 결과, 내열성이 있으며 균의 증식은 관찰되지 않았다. 결론적으로, 막걸리에서 B. subtilis는 대부분 포자상태로 존재하며, 포자는 초고압에 대한 저항력이 큰 것을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 초고압은 영양세포 사멸에 효과적이었다.
