본 실험에서는 고가의 생장억제제의 대체가능성을 알아보기 위하여 기존의 생장억제제인 Uniconazole(스미세븐)과 살균제로 사용되고 있는 가격이 저렴한 Diniconazole(빈나리) 처리가 천일홍과 금잔화의 생장 및 개화에 미치는 영향에 대해서 조사하였다. 천일홍과 금잔화 모두 빈나리처리에 의해서 생장이 억제되었다. 천일홍의 경우에는 빈나리 200ppm이 금잔화의 경우에는 400ppm이 스미세븐 5ppm과 비슷한 생장억제효과를 나타내었다. 천일홍의 경우 엽폭은 빈나리 200ppm과 스미세븐처리에 의해서 유의하게 증가하였다. 개화시기는 천일홍과 금잔화 모두 빈나리처리와 대조구간의 차이는 없었다.

Sustainable development is a key issue in the 21st Century and ecotourism is an alternative area of sustainable development. Ecotourism marketing is also a part of societal marketing which emphasizes social contributions. This study investigated the factors which affected ecotourist satisfaction and behavioral intentions. The sample for this study was composed of 212 ecotourists who visited the Upo area. This is one of the most well-known educational ecotourism sites in Korea and it has been registered at the Ramsar Convention for the conservation of wetlands since 1998. This study demonstrated that expectation factors did not significantly influence satisfaction. Second, the performance factors of physical attributes, eco-interpretation, eco-experience, and usability did significantly influence satisfaction. Third, the expectation factor of accessibility was significantly related to disconfirmation. Fourth, all performance factors significantly influenced disconfirmation. Fifth, it was found that disconfirmation significantly influenced satisfaction. Finally, satisfaction significantly influenced the intention to revisit and recommend the site to others. Managerial implications and future studies are discussed.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of horticulture on hand function and cognitive ability of the old age with serious brain diseases.
