A small ultraviolet telescope which can be established on a satellite of the Korean small satellite (KITSAT) series is proposed with a concept design. Possible scientific objectives are identified, and the basic structure and characteristics of the telescope are described. In order to overcome limitation of pointing and stabilization accuracy of the KITSAT, a system of secondary stabilization is designed at the focal plane, where both star-tracking CCD and science detector share a 1.2deg field of view. Star tracking information is fed to three-axis drivers that move the platform on which the star-tracking CCD and science detector are installed. The proposed stabilization system is light and efficient, in comparison with a standard system of stabilization that basically moves the whole telescope or satellite. With a good intensified CCD and second stabilization system, the telescope will achieve a limiting magnitude of 21 at 1600 angstrom, which is sufficient for observing a variety of celestial objects, such as hot stars, nebulae, galaxies with UV excess, and quasars.

Observational trends of the Jovian UV aurora, obtained from the Goddard High Resolution Spectrograph(GHRS) on board the Hubble Space Telescope(HST), are explained by a simple two component model. The model consists of cool and warm components with temperatures of about 400 and 1000K, and with methane absorptions corresponding to column densities of 6-9e16/cm2 and no methane absorption, respectively. Three trends that (1) brighter UV spectra have lower temperatures, and (2) spectra with stronger methane absorption show lower temperatures, and (3) spectra with stronger methane absorption seem to be brighter, are accounted by combinations of two components with various filling factors and intensity ratios. The model implies that precipitating particles responsibie for the cool component have higher individual energy and stronger energy flux than those for the warm component. Estimation of GHRS aperture location on UV auroral images taken by the Wide Field Planetary Camera 2(WFPC2) suggests that the cool component may correspond to emission along the oval, and the warm component to diffuse features of UV emission. Preliminary comparison of images by the WFPC2 and those by H3+ 4 micrometer ground-based observations implies that the warm component causes both weak diffuse features of UV emission and bright H3+ emission in an area at lambda III - 150 deg. inside the northern oval.

We have analyzed infrared (IR) images of Jupiter which was observed at the McDonald Observatory, Texas, U.S.A., during the P/SHoemaker-LEvy 9 (SL9) impact period and about one week after the last impact. The IR images were obtained on the 2.7m telescope using a NICMOS array with filters to isolate the 1.5 μm NH3 band, the 2.3 μm CH4 band, the 2.12 μm H2 S(0) pressure-induced absorption, and the continua at 1.58 μm and 2.0 μm (short K-band). All images except those with the 1.58 μm continuum filter show bright impact sites against the relatively dark Jovian disk near the impact latitude of about 45° S. This implies that dusts originated from the impacts reflect the solar radiation at high altitudes before absorbed by stratospheric CH4, NH3 or H2. The impact sites observed with the 2.3 μm filter are conspicuously bright against a very dark background. The morphology of impact sites, G, L, and H at 2.3 and 2.12 μm filters shows clearly an asymmetric structure toward the incident direction of the comet fragments, in agreement with the studies of visible impact images obtained with the Hubble Space Telescope. Comparisons of reflectances of G, L, and H sites with simple radiative transfer models suggest that optically thick dust layers were formed at high altitudes at which methane absorption attenuates incoming sunlight only by about 1%. The dust layers in these sites seem to form at about the same altitude regardless of the magnitude of the impacts, but they appear to descend gradually after the impacts. The dust layers have optical depths of 2-5, according to the models.

Adult diapause in insects is characterized by suppression of reproductive development. It is induced by environmental cues such as photoperiod, temperature, food availability, and other conditions Diapause-inducing environment is recognized and analyzed by the brain of the insects. The interpreted information is conveyed via endocrine system to target tissues such as ovaries, fat body, and other tissues. From this signal hierarchy of a brain-endocrine-target tissue axis, several factors are involved to express a diapause trait in a quantitative mode, even though the insects show a binomial phenotye between being in diapause or not. Recent works estimated that the number of the factors is relatively small by a series of crossing trials between high and low diapause lines. Heritability of the diapause is quite high (ca. 70%) in some species. Epistasis, sex-linkage, pleiotropism, and other nongenetic components also affect diapause inheritance. Most physiological studies have been focused on control mechanisms of the juvenile hormone (JH) synthesis in corpora allata (CA) because JH level in hemolymph of teneral adults is critical to decide a later developmental mode. Allatostatin, an antagonizer of JH synthesis, has been believed to be a potent brain message to CA for adult diapause induction.

Gold kiwifruit was fermented with Lactobacillus plantarum CK10 derived from kimchi and the fermented products were extracted with ethanol at various fermentation time-points The bacterial cellular density, total titratable acidity, total polyphenol content (TPC), and total flavonoid content (TFC) increased during fermentation, while pH values and total soluble solids decreased. Levels of TPC and TFC were highest after five days, at 1.21±0.13 mg GAE/g dry weight and 0.36±0.04 mg RE/g dry weight, respectively. The antioxidant activities of the fermented gold kiwifruit were analyzed using Fe2+ chelating activity, 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH)-, and 2,2'-azino-bis(3- ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS)- radical scavenging activities, and superoxide dismutase (SOD)-like activity. The Fe2+ chelating activity of gold kiwifruit (125-500 μg/mL) peaked after five days of fermentation at 38.40-78.47%. The DPPH radical- scavenging activity and SOD-like activity were somewhat higher after seven days of fermentation (36.01-86.81% and 54.79-93.83% at 2.5-10.0 mg/mL concentration of samples, respectively). On the other hand, the ABTS radical- scavenging activity of fermented gold kiwifruit was similar to that of the non-fermented form. The polyphenol and flavonoid contents were significantly correlated with the antioxidant activity. In conclusion, our results suggest that TPC, TFC, and antioxidant activity were increased after five and seven days of fermentation, respectively. Therefore, fermented gold kiwifruit with its increased antioxidant activity could be useful in the development of functional foods.

Ascidian embryos have become an important model for embryological studies, offering a simple example for mechanisms of cytoplasmic components segregation. It is a well-known example that the asymmetric segregation of mitochondria into muscle lineage cells occurs during ascidian embryogenesis. However, it is still unclear which signaling pathway is involved in this process. To obtain molecular markers for studying mechanisms involved in the asymmetric distribution of mitochondria, we have produced monoclonal antibodies, Mito-1, Mito-2 and Mito-3, that specifically recognize mitochondriarich cytoplasm in cells of the ascidian Halocynthia roretzi embryos. These antibodies stained cytoplasm like reticular structure in epidermis cells, except for nuclei, at the early tailbud stage. Similar pattern was observed in vital staining of mitochondria with DiOC2, a fluorescent probe of mitochondria. Immunostaining with these antibodies showed that mitochondria are evenly distributed in the animal hemisphere blastomeres at cleavage stages, whereas not in the vegetal hemisphere blastomeres. Mitochondria were transferred to the presumptive muscle and nerve cord lineage cells of the marginal zone in the vegetal hemisphere more than to the presumptive mesenchyme, notochord and endoderm lineage of the central zone. Therefore, it is suggested that these antibodies will be useful markers for studying mechanisms involved in the polarized distribution of mitochondria during ascidian embryogenesis.

Background : The practice of keeping the medicinal herbs at room temperature causes many problems, but due to lack of sufficient field research and study, it is difficult to improve related regulations and safety management. Methods and Results : The Cnidium Rhizome and Angelica gigas Root were inoculated with Lasioderma serricorne F. and incubated at 28℃ for 2.5 months and 5 months. After five months, the number of Lasioderma serricorne F. in Cnidium Rhizome increased from 30 to 1,429 (about 47 times). In the same period, the number of insects in Angelica gigas Root increased from 30 to 663 (about 22 times). Due to the rapid increase in pest population, hygiene deteriorated, changes in the active ingredient and appearance quality of the herbal medicines, which greatly damaged the value of the herbal medicine. Conclusions : These results show that current regulation requiring only sealing and not specifying the storage temperature do not guarantee quality safety. Therefore, it is necessary to establish appropriate preservation standards and improve management regulations in order to preserve safety.

Background : The hyphal growth of Poria cocos are known to grow well under medium temperature(25 - 28 ℃) and acidic(pH 4.0 - 5.0) conditions. Also, it is known that a large difference in the yield of Poria cocos depending on the cultivation method and environment. Therefore, this research was carried out to secure stable yield of Poria cocos using plastic house and bed soil. Methods and Results : The inoculation time was in mid-April 2016 and the inoculation amount was 3/4 lb each in pine trees of 60 (L) × 10 (D) ㎝. The inoculated wood was buried directly in the bed by soil composition and growth characteristics investigated after cultivating in plastic house from April to September, 2016. The composition of the bed soil was 6 treatments using peatmoss, cocopeat and perlite. The combination ratio ranges of peatmoss, cocopeat and perlite were 0 to 80 %, 0 to 60 % and 20 to 60 %, respectively. We assumed that the combination ratio of peatmoss (organic material) 60 % : perlite(inorganic material) 40% is good for the growth of the Poria cocos. In this ratio, instead of peatmoss, the amount of cocopeat was replaced by 20, 40, and 60 %, respectively. The pH and EC range of bed soil was 4.8 - 5.6, 0.7 - 2.2 dS/m, respectively. pH and EC tended to be lower in treatments with only peat moss and perlite. On the other hand pH and EC tended to raise with increasing cocopeat content. Volumetric soil water content and soil temperature were in the range of 13 - 28 % and 20 - 29℃, respectively, during the period of July to September. Soil water content tended to be higher with increasing cocopeat and peatmoss content and soil temperature tended to be lower. The degree of initial hyphal development and sclerotia formation were good in all treatments compared to the control. However, the number of sclerotia was 6 times higher in the ② treatment than in the control. The size of sclerotia was also the best at 12 (L) × 8 (W) ㎝ in the ② treatment. Conclusion : As a result of cultivating Poria cocos in plastic house, growth characteristics were different according to composition of bed soil. The first reason for this result is that the difference of soil moisture content depending on organic matter content affected the soil temperature. Actually, the average soil water content and soil temperature of ① treatment (organic material 80% ) showed 24% and 22℃ respectively during July to September, and no sclerotia was formed. However, in the ② treatment(organic material 60%), the average soil moisture and soil temperature were 14% and 26℃ during July to September, respectively and sclerotia formation was good. Another reason is that the pH of the bed soil affects the formation of sclerotia. Overall, the degree of hyphal development was good in low pH treatments, but no significant difference was found between the pH and the formation of sclerotia.

This study was carried out to examine the effects of NaOCl, sucrose, and BA concentration as pretreatment solution on quality and vase life of cut flowers in Dendranthema grandiflorum ‘Jinba’. Flower diameter, fresh weight, and vase life in control and 0 mg･L -1 NaOCl treatments decreased, and the treatment with 100~200 mg･L -1 NaOCl was more effective in the quality and vase life. In pretreatment with 2.5% sucrose solution, flower diameter and fresh weight decreased and vase life was shortest due to the rapid leaf wilting. However, pretreatment with 0.1% sucrose solution increased the flower diameter and fresh weight, and showed the longest vase life. When more than 80 mg･L -1 BA was treated with pretreatment solution, flower diameter and fresh weight decreased, and vase life was shortened. With pretreatment of 20 mg･L -1 BA, the flower diameter was bigger than in the other treatments, but it was no effect on fresh weight and vase life. Therefore, it was suggested that pretreatment solution mixed with 200 mg･L -1 NaOCl, 0.1% sucrose, and 20 mg･L -1 BA was the most effective for the quality and vase life of cut flowers in standard chrysanthemum ‘Jinba’.

The objective of this study was to find a rapid determination of the hot air stress in maize (Zea mays L.) leaves using a portable chlorophyll fluorescence imaging instrument. To assess the photosynthetic activity of maize leaves, an imaging analysis of the photochemical responses of maize was performed with chlorophyll fluorescence camera. The observed chlorophyll imaging photos were numerically transformed to the photochemical parameters on the basis of chlorophyll a fluorescence. Chlorophyll a fluorescence imaging (CFI) method showed that a rapid decrease in maximum fluorescence intensity (Fm) of leaf occurred under hot air stress. Although no change was observed in the maximum quantum yield (Fv/Fm) of the hot air stressed maize leaves, the other photochemical parameters such as maximum fluorescence intensity (Fm) and Maximum fluorescence value (Fp) were relatively lowered after hot air stress. In hot air stressed maize leaves, an increase was observed in the nonphotoquenching (NPQ) and decrease in the effective quantum yield of photochemical energy conversion in photosystem II (Φ PSII). Thus, NPQ and ΦPSII were available to be determined non-destructively in maize leaves under hot air stress. Our results clearly indicated that the hot air could be a source of stress in maize leaves. Thus, the CFI analysis along with its related parameters can be used as a rapid indicating technique for the determining hot air stress in plants.

The wheat-rye translocations are world widely used in wheat breeding. Among the various forms of wheat-rye translocation, the 1RS (short arm of rye chromosome 1) translocations are the most widely used because of the valuable genes (e.g. biotic / abiotic resistance genes) introduced from rye. We have developed a new wheat-rye cultivar ‘TRANS’ which have freezing resistance and high yield in this study. ‘TRANS’ is a new wheat-rye translocation cultivar developed by crossing between common wheat ‘Keumkangmil’ and ‘951188-G3-G1’, a 1AL.1RS translocation derived from ‘Fleming’ with the aim of high yield and resistant genes to various unfavorable environments carried by 1RS. ‘TRNAS’ have clearly different genetic and agronomic traits to the control cultivar ‘Keumkangmil’. The heading date and maturity of ‘TRANS’ are later than that of ‘Keumkangmil’. ‘TRANS’ has 1023 spike number per square meters and grain yield of 541 kg/10a, which are higher than ‘Keumkangmil’ (904 spike number/m2 and 504 kg/10a yield). ‘TRANS’ showed winter hardiness and powdery mildew resistance in artificial infection test and field evaluation. ‘TRANS’ gives lower flour yield than ‘Keumkangmil’ but ash and protein content were similar to that of ‘Keumkangmil’. The color of flour and noodle dough of ‘TRANS’ were darker than ‘Keumkangmil’. Quality parameters related to milling, flour quality, noodle dough and end-use quality of ‘TRANS’ indicates that ‘TRANS’ is soft wheat suitable for noodle making. ‘TRANS’ can be cultivated in entire part of Korea.

In animal development, the mechanisms by which localized factors and organelles in egg cytoplasm were exactly distributed into each daughter cell are essential for formation of various cell types. During ascidian Halocynthia roretzi embryogenesis, ooplasmic mitochondria were mainly segregated into muscle and neural precursor cells. At the 32-cell stage, localized mitochondria in the B6.2 blastomeres were preferentially distributed into the B7.4 muscle precursors compared with the B7.3 mesenchyme/ notochord precursors. When the B6.2 blastomeres were isolated from the early 32-cell stage embryos and then allowed to divide 2 times of cell division, the resultant partial embryos showed symmetric distribution of mitochondria, and the partial embryos were composed of equal size cells. In normal development, cell fates of the B7.3 blastomere were correlated with the unequal cleavage of B6.2 lineage cells that normally occurs in the next two-cell division stages to produce a large B8.5 mesenchyme and a small B8.6 notochord cell. Mitochondria are distributed asymmetrically in both cells. When embryos were treated with FGF receptor inhibitor SU5402 and MEK inhibitor U0126 between the 32-cell and the early 64-cell stages, the resultant embryos showed equal cleavage pattern and symmetric distribution of mitochondria in daughter cells of the B6.2 blastomeres. However, blocking of Nodal and Notch signaling did not affect the cell division pattern and mitochondrial distribution in the B6.2 lineage blastomeres between the 32-cell and 110-cell stages. Therefore, it is likely that FGF/MEK signaling is involved in asymmetric distribution of mitochondria and unequal cleavage of the B6.2 lineage blastomeres in ascidian embryo.

Studies in Modern Grammar 70, 107-127. It is known that VP-ellipsis and VP-anaphora phenomena are typologically dependent. The goals of this paper is to offer a unified algorithm for English VP-ellipsis and Korean VP-anaphora, and show how the suggested resolution algorithm, adopted from Jager (2010), can account for these two in a uniform way.
