A new soybean variety, “Sunam” was developed from the cross between Kosuzu and Bukwangkong by soybean breeding laboratory of the National Honam Agricultural Experiment Station (NHAES) in 2002. The preliminary, advanced, and regional yield trials for evalu

The genetic basis underlying heterosis for agronomic traits of rice under cold water irrigated field condition was investigated in the 143 RILs and 286 BC₁F₁ lines from the cross between a cold-susceptible variety, Milyang23 and a co

This experiment was carried out to evaluate the microclimate of wheat canopy, growth and yield characteristics of wheat under north-south and east-west row orientation. The variety used in this experiment was "AG South 2000", which was developed in USA. Solar radiation, air temperature, relative humidity, and soil temperature were monitored by data logger from March to May in 2002, The ratio of light penetration to the bottom from the upper canopy was 36.8% in north-south and 21.4% in east-west row orientation. Temporal march of light penetration to the bottom from March to May decreased as wheat developed canopy structure and decreased a little from May as plant were matured. The highest light penetration to the bottom from upper canopy occurred at 13：00 in both north-south and east-west row orientations, respectively which were 36 times in north-south and 27 times in east-west row orientation, respectively. Daily maximum temperature at the bottom of canopy occurred at 14：00 with 29 times in north-south, while 19 times were obtained at 14：00 and 15：00, respectively in east-west row orientation. Relative humidity at the bottom of the canopy in east-west yow orientation showed higher than that of north-south row orientation. Occurrence of daily maximum soil temperature of north-south showed one hour later compared with east-west yow orientation. 1000 grain weight and test weight of north-south row orientation was higher than those of east-west vow orientation. Correlation coefficient between solar radiation of upper canopy and 1000 grain weight showed r=0.8132* , and between air temperature of upper canopy and number of spikes per ~textrmm2 and 1000 grain weight showed significant positive correlation with r=0.8139* , and r=0.8293* , respectively.

Two split-hull mutants were induced a) by the treatment of chemical mutagen, N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (MNU), in the fertilized egg cells of Hwasunchal and b) in the progeny crossed between Stay-green and Indica-like mutant lines. This study was carried out

10년 이상 된 방사능오염 토양에서 동전기적 방법에 의한 Cs과 Co의 제염효율을 높이기 위해 HSO과 시트르산을 첨가제로 사용했다. 동전기 토양복원 컬럼의 방출수 평균속도는 2.0 cm/min이고, 10일 동안 방출된 토양폐액의 부피는 컬럼의 3.6 공극부피다. 10일간 Cs 의 제거효율이 54%에 불과한 반면에, Co는 97%나 제거되었다. 이것은 Cs의 흡착평형계수가 Co 보다 크기 때문이라고 생각된다. 본 연구에서 제시한 수학적 모델에 의한 컬럼 잔류 오염도는 실험 오차 범위에서 실험결과와 잘 일치하였다.

Twenty-one lowland rice genotypes were evaluated for their stability parameters with respect to grain yield in a multi locational trial at five different sites of Eastern India viz. CRRI, Cuttack (Orissa); OUAT, Bhubaneswar (Orissa); CRS, Masodha (UP); RAU, Pusa (Bihar) and RARS, North Lakhimpur (Assam). Pooled analysis of variance reflects existence of genotype x environment interactions and contribution of both linear and nonlinear components to genotype (G) x environment (E) interactions. Through stability parameter analysis it was found that Rayda ~textrmB3 , CR 778-95 and CR 661-236 were suitable for over all environments where as Sabita, OR 1334-16 and OR 1358-RGA-4 were suitable for rich environments. PSR 1209-2-3-2, CR 780-1937, Ambika, OR 877-ST-4-2 and CR 662-2211 were identified for poor environments.

국산화강암에 대한U(VI) 수착에 대한 실험적 연구를 지화학적 매개변수들인 접촉시간, pH, 이온강도, 탄산염 농도 등의 함수로 회분식으로 수행하였다. 국산 화강암에 대한 U(VI)의 수착의 분배계수 는 실험 조건에 따라 약 1-200 mL/g의 값의 범위를 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 화강암 입자에 대한 U(VI)의 수착은 접촉시간, pH 및 탄산염 농도 등에는 크게 의존하였으나 이온강도에는 크게 의존하지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 화강암 입자들에 대한U(VI)의 수착은 용액에서 pH와 탄산염의 농도에 의존하는 우라늄 화학종과 밀집한 관계가 있음을 알 수 있었다. 또한 속도론적 수착 실험에 의하여 2 단계 일차식 속도론적 거동이 화강암 입자들에 대한 우라늄의 속도론적 수착을 지배할 수 있는 것으로 유추되었다. pH 7 이상의 알칼리 영역에서 화강암에 대한 우라늄의 수착이 크게 감소되었는데 이는 화학종 계산에 의해 예측된 바에 따라 음이온의 U(VI)-탄산염 복합체 형성에 기인하였을 것이다.

Improving grain yield and quality of japonica rice continues to be a major breeding objective in Korea. In this study we evaluated genetic divergence among four japonica rice cultivars and assessed the relationship between genetic distance and hybrid perf

This study is to identify the physiological traits of submergence-tolerant varieties of rice plants (Oryza sativa L.) in Yeongnam area, southeastern part of Korea, where the reduction of rice yield due to submergence is remarkably severe. In the present study, two tolerant varieties of rice plants were selected from over 30 rice varieties grown in under a 10-day period. The tolerant varieties selected from a submerged paddy field. As a control, one intolerant variety of rice plant was chosen. Of the tolerant variety Samgangbyeo, rather than Haepyungbyeo, had a lower dissolved oxygen consumption and maintained a higher dry weight than the intolerant variety. The leaf photosynthetic rates (LPS) of the two tolerant varieties were significantly higher than that of the intolerant-variety after four days of submergence treatment. These results indicate that lower dissolved oxygen consumption in a limited pool is prevented by ethylene formation in the tolerant varieties, which may be a mechanism of submergence tolerance.

The elite rice cultivar, Suweon365, shows high level of leaf blast resistance. The number and chromosomal locations of genes conferring the resistance were detected by linkage analysis using DNA markers in the RILs from the cross between Suweon365 and Chu

고준위 방사성폐기물 처분장에서 적용하고 있는 다중 방벽의 한 부분인 처분 용기는 벤토나이트 완충재의 팽윤과 지압으로부터 폐기물을 역학적으로 안정하게 보호함과 동시에 일정 기간 방사성폐기물의 유출을 억제하는 역할을 한다. 처분용기의 건전성은 엄격한 재질 선정과 품질 보증을 통해 확보된다. 그러나 용기 제작 과정이나 수송 중 예상치 못한 사건으로 인해 불량 용기가 발생할 가능성이 있다. 본 논문에서는 이와 같은 경우 방사성폐기물로 인해 생태계에 미치는 환경 영향을 연간 개인 선량으로 평가하였다. 연구결과 일부 불량 처분 용기가 발생하더라도 현 평가에 사용한 입력 데이터 범위에서는, 국내 고준위 방사성폐기물 처분 개념이 방사선적 안전성을 확보할 수 있는 것으로 판명되었다.

Field studies were conducted in the southeastern Korea (36~circ N) on a commerce silt loam soil at paddy field. Seed were manually planted on 16 July 2003. Plants were planted with plant densities of 70~times 10 cm (row width x plant spacing), 50 x 10 cm, and 30 ~times 10 cm. Two seedlings per hill were taken prior to V3 stage. Fertilizer was applied prior to plant at a rate of 30-30-34 kg (N-~textrmP2~textrmO5 -~textrmK2~textrmO ) per ha. Experimental design was a randomized complete block in a split plot arrangement with three replications. Yield from different planting densities responded similarly in three soybean cultivars and increased when planting density increased. Somyeongkong showed the highest increasing rate of yield about 26% by 338 g ~textrmm-2 at 30 x l0 cm compared to yield of conventional planting density (70 x 10 cm). Also, the planting density significantly affected pod and seed number and seed weight, but not seed per pod. The tallest plant appeared at 30~times 10 cm. The change of leaf area according to days after emergence showed differently in soybean cultivars. The highest and lowest total dry matter production per square meter appeared at 30 x 10 cm and at 70 x 10 cm, respectively. Crop growth rate (CGR) showed greater at R3∼R4 stages compared with V7∼R2 or R2∼R3 growth stages and showed the greatest at 30 x 10 cm in three soybean cultivars. As late planted soybean, there was a significant relation between seed yield and CGR, and leaf area index (LAI) according to planting densities at before and after the flowering stage. Relationship between seed yield and CGR in three planting densities showed a highly significant positive relation (~textrmR2 =0.757) at R3 to R4 stages, and significant relations (~textrmR2 =0.505, 0.617) at V7 to R2 and V2 to V3. Also, there was a highly significant positive difference between seed yield and LAI during R3 to R4 and R2 to R3 stages.

고준위방사성폐기물 처분장의 완충재 후보물질 선정을 위해 경주 벤토나이트를 대상으로 수리특성, 팽윤특성, 열적특성, 역학특성 및 핵종유출 저지특성을 조사하였다. 실험결과, 압축 벤토나이트의 수리전도도는 m/s 이하로 매우 낮았으며 건조밀도가 증가할수록 감소하였다. 팽윤압은 0.66 ㎫∼14.4 ㎫ 사이의 값을 보였으며 건조밀도에 따라 증가하였다. 건조밀도가 1.4 Ms/㎥ ∼ 1.8 Mg/㎥1.4 일때, 열전도도, 열축압축강도 (unconfined compressive strength), 탄성계수 (Young's modulus of elasticity), Poisson 비는 각각 0.80 ㎉/m ∼1.52 ㎉/m , 0.55 ㎫ ∼ 8.83 ㎫, 59 ㎫ ∼ 1275 ㎫, 0.05 ∼ 0.20의 값을 나타내었다. 압축벤토나이트에 대한 핵증 확산계수는 산화 환경에서 측정되었으며, 주어진 실험조건에서 삼중수소 (H-3)는 1.7 /s ∼ 3.4 /s. 양이온 핵종 (Cs, Sr , Ni)은 8.6 /s ∼ 1.3 /s, 음이온 핵종 (I, Tc)은 1.2 /s ∼ 9.5 /s, 악티나이드 핵종은 3.0 /s ∼ 1.8 /s 사이의 값을 나타내었다. 이때 확산계수는 모든 핵종에 대해 압축벤토나이트의 건조밀도가 증가할수록 감소하는 경향을 보였다.
