Cucurbita is one of the crops with high demand in the world. Securing breeding sources is crucial and fundamental to any plant breeding program. This study was conducted to investigate the characterization of phenotypic traits and phylogenetic classification of germplasm provided by the National Agrobiodiversity Center of RDA. Fourteen phenotypic traits were measured in 199 accessions of Cucurbita germplasm. Among these germplasm, 92 accessions of C. moschata, 34 accessions of C. maxima, and 73 accessions of C. pepo were classified using the KASP marker from the Seed Industry Center. It was confirmed that there were five classifications in C. moschata, five in C. maxima and four in the C. pepo. The results of this study provide fundamental data on Cucurbita germplasm and are expected to be useful in breeding programs.

To improve the shelf-life of mushrooms, Lentinula edodes GNA01 mushrooms were treated with gel packs containing slow-released chlorine dioxide (ClO2) gas at 5~10 ppm for 5 days at 20℃ and the weight loss rate as well as the changes in pH, color and texture properties of the treated samples were investigated. The weight of the control and ClO2 gas treated samples were decreased slightly, and there were no differences during the storage period. However, the weight of the control changed faster than those of the ClO2 gas treated samples during storage period. The pH in the control and in the ClO2 gas treated samples were decreased during storage period, but the samples treated with 5 and 7 ppm ClO2 gas were the least changed. On the other hand, the samples treated with 10 ppm ClO2 gas showed no difference from the other treatments during 4 days, but the pH was lower than that of the control on the fifth day. The lightness of inside and outside in mushroom were decreased whereas redness and yellowness were increased during storage period. However, color changes in the ClO2 gas treated samples were lower than those of the control. Especially, the samples treated with 5 and 7 ppm ClO2 gas were the least changed. The texture of the mushroom were decreased consistently during storage period. The texture of the control changed faster than those of the ClO2 gas treatments during 5 days. Especially, the samples treated 5 ppm ClO2 gas were the least changed.

In this paper, we proposed a method to determine the acceleration/deceleration time of the motion for reducing the residual vibration caused by the resonance of the robot in the high-speed motion. The relationship between the acceleration/deceleration time and the residual vibration was discussed for the trapezoidal velocity profile by analyzing the time when the jerk happens. The natural frequency of the robot can be estimated in advance through the dynamics simulation. The simulation and experiment for both cases where the moving distance of the robot is long enough and the distance is short, are implemented in the 1-DOF linear robot. Simulation and experimental results show that when the acceleration/deceleration time is a multiple of the vibration period, the settling time and the amplitude of the residual vibration become less than when the time is not a multiple.
