고품질 쌀 생산을 위한 기초자료를 얻기 위하여 작물과학원 춘천출장소 냉수처리 포장에서 냉해피해 정도가 다른 시료를 채취하여 벼의 도정특성, 쌀의 이화학적특성, 쌀가루의 아밀로그램특성 및 밥의 식미관능검정을 실시한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 냉수관개에 의한 냉해 발생은 불임율이 높을수록 출수 지연일수가 길고, 간장의 단축정도는 심했으며, 이삭의 추출은 불량하였다. 2. 쌀의 외관품질은 불임을 20% 이상부터 완전미율이 낮아지고, 유백미율과 깨어진 쌀이 증가하는 경향이었다. 3. 쌀의 이화학적특성은 냉수관개로 냉해를 유발하고 생산된 쌀이 자연구에 비해 단백질 함량이 0.9~2.0% 높았으며, 백미의 투명도가 떨어지며, 밥의 윤기치도 낮았다. 4. 쌀가루의 아밀로그램특성은 저온피해를 받은 쌀은 호화개시온도가 높고, 최고점도와 강하점도는 낮았으며, 치반점도는 높았다. 5. 식미관능검정에서는 냉해로 인해 불임율이 높을수록 식미관능이 자연구에 비해 많이 떨어졌다. 평가항목 중에서 밥맛의 차이가 큰 것은 밥의 찰기와 식미총평 이었으며, 차이가 적었던 것은 밥의 냄새였다.

Rice quality is much dependent on the pre-and post harvest management. There are many parameters which influence rice or cooked rice qualitys such as cultivars, climate, soil, harvest time, drying, milling, storage, safety, nutritive value, taste, marketing, eating, cooking conditions, and each nations' food culture. Thus, vice evaluation might not be carried out by only some parameters. Physicochemical evaluation of rice deals with amy-lose content, gelatinizing property, and its relation with taste. The amylose content of good vice in Korea is defined at 17 to 20%. Other parameters considered are as follows; ratio of protein body-1 per total protein amount in relation to taste, and oleic/linoleic acid ratio in relation to storage safety. The rice higher Mg/K ratio is considered as high quality. The optimum value is over 1.5 to 1.6. It was reported that the contents of oligosaccharide, glutamic acid or its derivatives and its proportionalities have high corelation with the taste of rice. Major aromatic compounds in rice have been known as hexanal, acetone, pentanal, butanal, octanal, and heptanal. Recently, it was found that muco-polysaccharides are solubilized during cooking. Cooked rice surface is coated by the muco-polysaccharide. The muco-polysaccharide aye contributing to the consistency and collecting free amino acids and vitamins. Thus, these parameters might be regarded as important items for quality and taste evaluation of rice. Ingredients of rice related with the taste are not confined to the total rice grain. In the internal kernel, starch is main component but nitrogen and mineral compounds are localized at the external kernel. The ingredients related with taste are contained in 91 to 86% part of the outside kernel. For safety that is considered an important evaluation item of rice quality, each residual tolerance limit for agricultural chemicals must be adopted in our country. During drying, rice quality can decline by the reasons of high drying temperature, overdrying, and rapid drying. These result in cracked grain or decolored kernel. Intrinsic enzymes react partially during the rice storage. Because of these enzymes, starch, lipid, or protein can be slowly degraded, resulting in the decline of appearance quality, occurrence of aging aroma, and increased hardness of cooked rice. Milling conditions concerned with quality are paddy quality, milling method, and milling machines. To produce high quality rice, head rice must contain over three fourths of the normal rice kernels, and broken, damaged, colored, and immature kernels must be eliminated. In addition to milling equipment, color sorter and length grader must be installed for the production of such rice. Head rice was examined using the 45 brand rices circulating in Korea, Japan, America, Australia, and China. It was found that the head rice rate of brand rice in our country was approximately 57.4% and 80-86% in foreign countries. In order to develop a rice quality evaluation system, evaluation of technics must be further developed : more detailed measure of qualities, search for taste-related components, creation and grade classification of quality evaluation factors at each management stage of treatment after harvest, evaluation of rice as food material as well as for rice cooking, and method development for simple evaluation and establishment of equation for palatability. On policy concerns, the following must be conducted : development of price discrimination in conformity to rice cultivar and grade under the basis of quality evaluation method, fixation of head rice branding, and introduction of low temperature circulation.

Rapeseed as a partial allogamous crop(allogamy rate : 25~75%) displays depression by continuous selfing. Therefore, it is essential to produce F1 hybrids with high yield using cytoplasmic genetic male sterility(CGMS). This breeding system needs to develop

Amaranth(Amaranthus spp. L.) and quinoa (Chenpodium quinoa Willd.) are old crops from South, Central America and Central Asia and their grains have been identified as very promising food crops because of their exceptional nutritive value. Squalene is an important ingredient in skin cosmetics and computer disc lubricants as well as bioactive materials such as inhibition of fungal and mammalian sterol biosynthesis, antitumor, anticancer, and immunomodulation. Amaranth has a component called squalene (2,6,10,15,19,23-hexamethyl-2,6,10,14,22-tetraco-sahexaene) about 1/300 of the seed and 5~~8~% of its seed oil. Oil and squalene content in amaranth seed were different for the species investigated. Squalene content in seed oil also increased by 15.5~% due to puffing and from 6.96 to 8.01~% by refining and bleaching. Saponin concentrations in quinoa seed ranged 0.01 to 5.6~% . Saponins are located in the outer layers of quinoa grain. These layers include the perianth, pericarp, a seed coat layer, and a cuticle like structure. Oleanane-type triterpenes saponins are of great interest because of their diverse pharmacological properties, for instance, anti-inflammatory, antibiotic, contraceptive, and cholesterol-lowering effects. It is known that quinoa contains a number of structurally diverse saponins including the aglycones, oleanolic acid, hederagenin, and phytolaccagenic acid, which are new potential in gredient for pharmacological properties. It is likely that these saponin levels will be considerably affected by genetic, agronomic and environmental factors as well as by processing. With the current enhanced public interest in health and nutrition amaranth and quinoa will most likely remain in the immediate future within the realm of exotic health foods until such time as agricultural production meets the quantities and qualify required by industrial food manufacturers.

The n-3 family fatty acids containing α -linolenic acid(18:3, ALA) have been known as physiological activation materials such as inhibitory effects on the incidence of hyper-tension, coronary heart disease and cancers as well as the control of senilc dementia. Although a lot of ALA(about 63~% ) are contained in perilla oil, it has not been commercialized yet because the purification technique of the ALA has not been well established. The procedure of purification of ALA from perilla oil was saponified with 1 N-KOH /ethanol and then saturated and low level unsaturated fatty acids were removed by low-temperature crystallization method. The concentrated unsaturated fatty acids (containing about 75~% ALA) went down through the silver nitrate-impregnated silica column chromatography for separation of high purity of ALA. The results obtained we Fraction B, C and D contained ALA more than 85.5~% (recovery, >88.9~%,~;95.4~% (recovery, >54.4~% ) and 99.9~% (recovery, >31.5~% ) in purity, respectively. Seed oil content of the tested varieties were ranged from 34.8 to 54.1~% with 45.3~% of varietal means. The major omega fatty acids contained in the oil were oleic acid(n-9) 15.2~% , linoleic acid(n-6) 13.9~% and linolenic acid(n-3) 63.1~% in the mean value. Varietal variation of n-9, 6 and 3 fatty acids ranged of 9.5~~21.4~%,~;9.1~~20.4~% and 50.6~~70.5~% respectively. Unsaturated fatty acid were averaged 92.2~% of seed oil in fatty acid composition. The ratios of n-6 to n-3 ranged of 0.13~~0.34~% (0.22~% in mean value). The highest n-3 fatty acid variety was Yecheonjong being 70.5~% . The lowest variety in ratios of n-6 to n-3 was Goseongjong being 0.13~% . Oil content showed positive correlation with stearic acid and linolenic acid, while the negative correlation with oil content and linoleic acid. On the other hand, A significant negative correlation were showed between linolnic acid and the ratios n-6/n-3 fatty acid, saturated fatty acid. Saturated fatty acid was highly correlated with unsaturated fatty acid negatively being r= -0.723** .
