The Kojongsi persimmon peels is byproduct after production of dried persimmon. This study was conducted to investigate optimal mixing ratio of Kojonsi persimmon peels as a substrate for cultivation of Pleurotus eryngii. The primary nutritive material of substrate for Pleurotus eryngii was corncob, soybean meal, beet pulp, ground corn and bran. Five to forty percent of persimmon peels were mixed with primary nutritive materials as new substrate. The chemical properties of substrate mixed with Kojongsi persimmon peels was similar to the mixture without Kojongsi persimmon peels in T-C, T-N, C/N ratio, and other nutrients. Mycelial growth time on medium with 5 to 30% persimmon peels was similar to the control without persimmon peels as 27 days but that on medium with 40% and 50% persimmon peels was delayed for 10 days. The time of pinhead formations in medium with 5 to 30% persimmon peels was 12 days, the growth time to harvest was 6 days. These results were similar to those of the control without persimmon peels. The sizes of pileus of treatments with 5 to 30% persimmon peels were tend to be smaller compared with the control. The length of stipe of 10% persimmon peels treatment was 80 mm which was shorter than that of the control with 120 mm.

Quality assessment of sweet persimmon or “Fuyu” was evaluated over room temperature distribution periods after 40-day storage at 0oC cold room. All Hunter’s values (L, a, and b) of sweet persimmon were significantly decreased after 4-day room temperature distribution while the flesh firmness was drastically decreased after 3-day room temperature distribution. Glucose and fructose contents were significantly increased by the degradation of sucrose after 3-day room temperature distribution. The highest extraction yield was obtained in the flesh of persimmon. Extraction yields of each part of “Fuyu” persimmon were 15.53% for flesh, 10.53 for seed, and 13.83 for flower bud. However, the total phenolic content of flesh was 4.8 μg/mg which was extremely lower than that of the seed (175.5 μg/ mg) and flower bud (178.2 μg/mg) of sweet persimmon. With high phenolic content, both the flower bud and seed of sweet persimmon showed excellent antioxidant activities by 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2'-azinobis( 3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) free radical scavenging test. The results showed a great potential for byproducts (seed and flower bud) of long-term, cold-stored sweet persimmon “Fuyu” as a good antioxidant material for novel functional foods.

단감 해충의 효과적인 방제를 위하여, 현재까지 주로 화학 살충제가 사용되어 왔으나, 최근 화학 살충제의 과다 사용은 해충 저항성과 농약 잔류 문제라는 심각한 문제를 야기하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 친환경 유기농자재 (Eco-Friendly Organic Pesticides; EFOP)의 주요 단감 해충 인 감꼭지나방과 톱다리개미허리노린재에 대한 살충 활성을 검토하였다. 현재 유통되고 있는 친환경 유기농자재 11 종을 실험실 조건에서 대상 해충에 분무 처리하였다. 대조 약제는 화학 살충제인 buprofezin+dinotefuran (20+15) 수화제를 사용하였다. 감꼭지나방에 대한 유기농자재의 살충 효과를 평가하는 과정에서, 감꼭지나방 유충의 개체수 부족 문제로 인하여 배추좀나방 유충을 1차 실험충으로 사용하였으며, 세 종류의 친 환경 유기농자재를 사전 선발하였다. 선발된 친환경 유기농자재는 목초액 (EFOP-1), 회화나무, 양명아주, 멀구슬나무의 혼합추출물 (EFOP-2), Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. aizawai NT0423 (EFOP-11)이었으며, 선발된 유기농자재의 감꼭지나방 유충에 대한 살충력 실험 결과, EFOP-2 의 처리구에서 생충율이 27.7% (5 일차), 13.3% (7 일차), 6.7% (10 일차)로 가장 높은 살충 효과를 보였다. 톱다리개미허리노린재에 대한 살충 효과 평가에서는 회화나무, 양명아주, 멀구슬나무의 혼합추출물 (EFOP-2, EFOP-9)과 고삼, 데리스의 혼합추출물 (EFOP-10)이 높은 살충 효 과를 보였다. 특히 EFOP-2의 처리구에서 생충율이 20.0% (5 일차), 16.7% (10 일차)로 가장 높은 살충 효과를 보였다. 결론적으로, 친환경 유기 농자재인 EFOP-

Euzophera batangensis (Lepidotera: Pyralidae) is seriously damaging trunks or branches of persimmon tree (Diospyros sp.). We tested the attractiveness of (Z)-9-tetradecen-1-ol (Z9-14OH) and (Z9,E12)-tetradeca- 9,12-dien-1-ol (Z9,E12-14OH) with single or blended baits at southern parts of Korea in 2014 and 2015. The monoene was not attractive at all at three places during the two years. In 2014, diene was equally or more attractive than the mixture in Jinju and Suncheon, respectively. In 2015 too, the attractiveness of diene and mixture was not different in Jinju and Munsan. Monitoring of the seasonal occurrence of E. batangesis with the sex pheromone components revealed that it occurred three times a year; the first occurrence from early April to mid May, the second from early Jun to mid July, and the third from late August to late September.

Chemical pesticides have been used to control persimmon pests, however the overuse of the pesticides caused insect resistance. Herein we investigate the potential of eco-friendly organic pesticides (EFOP) on the control persimmon pests, Stathmopoda masinissa and Riptortus pedestris. Eleven commercially available EFOP were sprayed on the target insects in laboratory conditions. The chemical pesticide, buprofezin+dinotefuran wettable powder served as a positive control. In the bioassay against persimmon fruit moth, the mixture of Chinese scholar tree, goosefoot and subtripinnata extracts (EFOP-2) treatment showed the highest control efficacy: 27.7% (5 days) of survival rates. In the bioassay against bean bugs, the EFOP-2 showed the highest control efficacy: 20.0% (5 days) of survival rates. These results suggest that the mixture of three plants extracts (EFOP-2) has high and multiple potential in the management of the persimmon pests.

애기유리나방과 복숭아유리나방의 성페로몬 트랩을 이용하여 2013년부터 2015년까지 경남과 전남지역의 단감원에서 이들의 발생소장을 조사하였다. 두 종 모두 년 2회 발생하는 것으로 조사되었다. 애기유리나방의 1화기의 발생최성기는 5월 하순, 2화기는 9월 중·하순인 것으로 나 타났다. 복숭아유리나방의 1화기 발생최성기는 해에 따라 조금씩 달라 5월 상순 - 6월 상순 정도이었고, 2화기 발생최성기는 애기유리나방처럼 9 월 중·하순으로 조사되었다. 년도별 지역별 유인량을 종합해보면 애기유리나방은 1세대의 유인량이 2세대보다 약 1.9배 많았으나 복숭아유리나 방의 경우에는 이와 반대로 2세대의 유인량이 1세대보다 약 1.3배 많았다. 그러나 복숭아유리나방의 감나무에 대한 피해여부는 아직까지 밝혀진 바가 없다.

본 연구는‘부유’단감의 경제적 가치를 평가하기 위해 이루어졌다. 연구를 위해 최근 9년간의 단감 ‘부유’주산지 소득조사 원시자료(707농가)와 현장을 방문하여 조사한 47농가의 자료를 이용하여 kg 당 수취가격, 투입비용, 주당 수량을 분석하였다. 연구결과 단감‘부유’의 손익분기수령은 성장기 8수 령과 쇠퇴기 85수령으로 분석되어 단감‘부유’의 경제적 갱신 한계 수령은 85수령으로 나타났다. 주당 수량은 65수령을 전후로 가장 높은 것으로 나타났다. 경제적 내용연수 85수령을 기준으로 한 단감‘부 유’의 주당 경제적 가치는 수익접근법에 의해 10,488천원, 비용접근법에 의해 9,249천원으로 분석되었 다.

This study was performed to investigate the content of carotenoid (α-carotene, β-carotene, β-cryptoxanthin, capxanthin, lutein, lycopene, zeaxanthin) and physicochemical characteristics (size, color, dietary fiber, total tannin content) of unripen and ripen persimmons (Diospyros kaki) by seven cultivars. The length of the unripen and ripen persimmons ranged from 40.87-64.75 and 48.80-80.29 cm, the width were from 44.03 to 66.73 and 57.65 to 91.53 cm, respectively. Ripen persimmons were showed in the highest Hunter’s L, a and b values. Total tannin content were resulted of unripen- and ripen persimmons ranged from 7.58 to 19.80 and 2.36 to 5.85 mg/g. Total carotenoid content were from 1.09 to 6.45 and 7.46 to 29.46 μg/g, respectively. From the above results, unripen- and ripen persimmon fruit could be useful for the health functional food.

This study was conducted to investigate the quality characteristics and antioxidant properties of cookies supplemented with 1-4% (w/w) persimmon leaf powder (PLP). pH and density of cookie dough increased significantly but moisture content decreased significantly with increasing levels of PLP (p<0.05). The spread ratio and loss rate of cookies decreased significantly with increasing levels of PLP (p<0.05). Lightness (L*), redness (a*), and yellowness (b*) decreased significantly with higher amount of PLP (p<0.05). The use of PLP significantly increased the hardness of cookies while 2,2-diphenyl- 1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2’-azino-bis-3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulphonic acid (ABTS) radical scavenging activities were significantly elevated (p<0.05). The consumer acceptance test indicated that the addition of PLP up to 2% had a favorable effect on the consumer preferences in most attributes. Based on the overall observations, cookies with 2% PLP can take advantage of the functional properties of PLP without sacrificing consumer acceptability.

Exportation of sweet persimmon has been grown up recently, but the growth was accumulated because of quarantine and shelf life issues. Herein, we've investigated the concurrent processing of ethyl formate (EtF), a MeBr alternative quarantine fumigant, and 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP), an anti-ethylene compound, on sweet persimmon and suggested proper fumigation methods. An important quarantine pest, Tetranychus urticae, was inoculated on sweet persimmon, and then 70 g m-3 of ethyl formate has been fumigated for 6 h before and after 1 ppm of 1-MCP treatment for 24 h at 5°C condition. These concurrent processing showed the promise that efficacy of EtF was enough to meet quarantine guideline and shelf life of fruits was extended in terms of the hardness, surface color and sugar contents when treated fruits were stored for four weeks at 5°C.

Chemical communication is very important for survival and reproduction in insects. The successful survival of insects depends to a large extent on the ability to detect and recognize environmental signals. We can manage the insect pest populations by eco-friendly methods by understanding the chemical communication systems which lie among the host trees, pests, and natural enemies. Persimmon is the largest fruit tree in acreage in Korea. Many insect pests are attacking various part of persimmon. Major insect pests of persimmon in Korea are Riptortus pedestris, Halyomorpha halys, Plautia stali as hemipterans, Stathmopoda masinissa, Euzophera batangensis, Conogethes punctiferalis as lepidopterans, There are also some minor insect pests including Homona magnanima, Apolygus spinolae, Synanthedon tenuis, bark beetles et cetera. Some of these produce sex pheromones to attract conspecific females or produce aggregation pheromones to gather conspecific individuals. Interestingly, some insect pests are using the semiochemicals of other species, pheromones or floral scents, as kairomones to find hosts or oviposition sites. These relationships in chemical communications at persimmon ecosystem will be discussed using our research results and others so far.

Hunter's color value “a” in dried-persimmon of table and full ripe fruit was higher than that in unripe fruit. In case of soluble solid content, full ripe fruit was 50o Brix, the highest degree, while unripe fruit was 40o Brix, the lowest degree. PPO activation of unripe fruit was 4.7, which was higher than table-ripe fruit (0.7) and full ripe (1.0). Polyphenol oxidase activation remained even while drying, but there was no difference in PPO activation degree as drying period increased. Total phenol content of unripe fruit was 101.4, which was higher than table-ripe fruit (57.5) and full ripe fruit (67.4). Total phenol content level increased as drying period increased, which was based on fresh weight. Hardness of unripe and table ripe fruit continued to decrease until three weeks during softening. After that, hardness was high and it started drying. However, in full ripe fruit, hardness increased after two weeks and softening was fast during the drying period, and its weight reduction rate was lower than that of unripe and table ripe fruit.

본 연구는 지역 특산물인 감과피를 이용한 버섯배지 개 발을 위한 기초자료로서 감과피의 이용 가능성을 검토하 고자 수행되었으며 감과피는 경상남도 산청지역에서 곶감 을 생산하고 남은 것을 수거하여 건조한 후 사용하였고 공시균주는 ASI 2312를 사용하였다. 대조구는 혼합배지:콘코브:톱밥(220:65:15, v/v)을 혼합한 기본배지를 사용하 였고 기본배지 중 혼합배지를 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%의 건조된 감과피 처리구로 대체한 처리 구를 시험구로 사용하였다. 대조구인 기본배지에 비해 시 험구인 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50% 감과피 처 리구의 T-N 함량은 감과피 첨가량이 증가할수록 감소하 는 경향을 나타내었으며 T-C 함량은 큰 차이가 없었고 C/ N율은 감과피 첨가량이 증가할수록 증가하는 경향을 나 타내었다. 감과피 첨가량이 균사생장에 미치는 영향을 조 사한 결과 대조구보다 감과피가 첨가된 모든 시험구에서 균사생장이 느리게 나타났다. 감과피 첨가량에 따른 배양 일수는 대조구인 혼합배지에 비해 감과피를 30%까지 첨 가하여도 배양일수와 초발이 소요일수에는 뚜렷한 차이는 없었지만 감과피 첨가량이 증가할수록 배양일이 길어지는 경향을 보였으며 혼합배지에 비해 감과피 첨가비율이 증 가할수록 갓의 직경은 감소하고 대의 길이는 길어지고 직 경은 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. 수확 후 동결 건조한 큰느타리버섯의 수분, 단백질, 조회분 함량은 대조구와 시 험구에서 유의성 있는 차이를 나타내지 않았지만 조지방 함량은 감과피 첨가량이 증가함에 따라 증가하는 경향을 나타내었고 β-glucan 함량은 대조구에 비해 10%와 15% 감과피 첨가구에서 높게 나타났다. 따라서 대조구와 비교 했을 때 15% 감과피 첨가구는 자실체 수량도 높게 나타 나고 β-glucan 함량도 높게 나타났기때문에 감과피 첨가 비율은 15%가 가장 적합한 것으로 사료된다.
