남부지역에서 고구마 바이러스 무병묘의 정식시기 및 재배 기간에 따른 괴근 수량 및 씨고구마 생산량을 조사한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 바이러스 무병묘 정식시기에 따라 씨고구마로 사용하기에 알맞은 100~300 g 크기의 괴근 생산량은 6월 중순 정식 재배에서 ‘신율미’ 2,364 kg/10a, ‘풍원미’ 2,625 kg/10a 수준이었다. 2. 바이러스 무병묘를 7월 상순에 정식하여 재배하여도 씨고구마로 사용하기에 알맞은 100~300 g 크기의 괴근 수량은 ‘신율미’ 2,043, ‘진홍미’ 1,799, ‘다호미’ 1,390, ‘풍원미’ 1,985 kg/10a 정도가 생산되었다. 3. 고구마 바이러스 무병묘 정식 후 110일, 120일, 그리고 130 일 재배 시 씨고구마 수량은 ‘풍원미’ 1,605, 1,907, 1,834 kg/ 10a, ‘호감미’ 1,816, 1,771, 2,137 kg/10a 수준으로 생산되었다. 4. 수확 전 채취한 고구마 잎에서 SPLCV, SPFMV, SPVG, SPLV 등 4종 바이러스 이병 정도를 검정한 결과 정식시기, 재배기간 등 품종에 따라 약간 차이는 있으나 낮게 검출되어 다음해 씨고구마 종자로 문제가 없다고 판단하였다. 5. 바이러스 무병묘 대량 증식에는 시설과 노력이 많이 소요되고 증식량이 적어 면적 확대에 어려움이 있기 때문에 무병씨고구마를 생산하면 면적 확대에 유리하다. 무병묘가 소량 일 경우는 계속 증식하면서 7월 상순까지 본밭에 정식하여도 씨고구마 생산이 가능하였다. 금후에는 무병묘로 생산한 연차 간 씨고구마에 대해 품종별 수량과 품질 평가 후 씨고구마의 적정 갱신 주기를 설정하고자 한다.

1. 본 연구는 고구마의 큐어링 처리 및 저장기간에 따른 품종별 저장성 차이를 조사하여 품종별 적정 저장 조건을 설정하고자 수행하였다. 수확된 고구마는 온도 32±1℃, 상대습도 92±3% 조건에서 3일간 큐어링 처리를 실시하였고 대조구와 함께 13±℃의 저장고에 30주간 저장하였다. 2. 저장 기간에 따른 부패율 및 감모율은 품종별로 큐어링 처리 여부에 따라 다른 양상을 보였으며 대부분 품종에서 큐어링 처리구의 부패율과 감모율이 낮게 나타났다. 품종별로는 ‘호감미’, ‘풍원미’, ‘신건미’, ‘주황미’가 장기저장을 위해서 큐어링 처리가 필요한 품종으로 나타났으며, ‘다호미’, ‘연자미’ 품종은 큐어링 처리 여부에 따른 유의한 차이가 없었다. 3. 큐어링 처리 여부에 따른 부패율 차이가 없었던 ‘다호미’, ‘연자미’를 제외한 나머지 품종은 감모율 조사에서도 큐어링 처리가 장기 저장에 더 유리한 것으로 조사되었다. 4. ‘호감미’ 품종의 경우 저장기간별 부패율 및 감모율을 예측하고 조수입을 계산하였을 때 큐어링 처리 시에는 조수입이 증가하였으나 큐어링 무처리 시에는 저장기간이 길어질수록 조수입이 감소하였다. 5. 따라서 이러한 품종별 저장성 차이를 고려하여 각 품종에 맞는 수확 후 관리 및 적정 출하시기를 예측하는 것이 고구마 저장성 증대 및 농가 소득 향상에 유용하게 적용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

This study was carried out to obtain the basic quality characteristics, like moisture contents, hunter color value, total polyphenol, starch, amylose, and ash contents and pasting characteristics of sweet potato cultivars according to storage periods. Moisture contents of all the varieties decreased with long storage period, and were lower in dry type than tender and moist type sweet potato. Lightness(L value) of sweet potato flesh was decreased in Shinyulmi, Daeyumi, Shinhwangmi but other seven cultivars showed increasing trend. Redness(a value) was increased in Sinyulmi, Sinhwangmi, Sinjami and yellowness (b value) increased in Yeonjami only. The total polyphenol contents increased in Dahomi, Sinjami up to 4 months of storage and all other varieties showed decrease during storage period. The starch contents also decreased with storage period. The amylose contents showed different by the cultivars. The ash contents in all varieties ranged from 1.1 to 1.7%, and there was no difference among varieties and storage periods. There was no change in pasting temperature during storage periods. Peak viscosity, through viscosity, breakdown and final viscosity were different according to storage periods and cultivars. But setback tended to increase in all cultivars.

Since the 1990s, the second generation of Zirconium alloys containing main alloy compositions of Nb, Sn and Fe have been used as a replacement of Zircaloy-4 (Zr-Sn-Fe-Cr), a first-generation Zirconium alloy, to meet severe and rigorous reactor operating conditions characterized by high-burn-up, high-power and high-pH operations. In this study, the mechanical properties and creep behaviors of Zr-Sn-Fe-Cr and Zr-Nb-Sn-Fe alloys were investigated in a temperature range of 450~500˚C and in a stress range of 80~150 MPa. The mechanical testing results indicate that the yield and tensile strengths of the Zr-Nb-Sn-Fe alloy are slightly higher compared to those of Zr-Sn-Fe-Cr. This can be explained by the second phase strengthening of the β-Nb precipitates. The creep test results indicate that the stress exponent for the steady-state creep rate decreases with the increase in the applied stress. However, the stress exponent of the Zr-Sn-Fe-Cr alloy is lower than that of the Zr-Nb-Sn-Fe alloy in a relatively high stress range, whereas the creep activation energy of the former is slightly higher than that of the latter. This can be explained by the dynamic deformation aging effect caused by the interaction of dislocations with Sn substitutional atoms. A higher Sn content leads to a lower stress exponent value and higher creep activation energy.

A new rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) variety ‘Jungmo 7003’ is with early flowering and disease tolerance, which has white petals. ‘Jungmo 7003’ was developed from the cross between ‘Tower’ as female parent and ‘AB130’ as male parent in 1983. The selection for advanced lines with white flower had been done by the pedigree method. A promising line, ‘83025-B-1-1-2’, was selected and designated as the name of ‘Mokpo113’. It had good results from regional adaptation yield trials at four locations for two years from 2013 to 2014 and was released as the name of ‘Jungmo 7003’. ‘Jungmo 7003’ has light-green and middle parted leaf, light-green stem and black seed coat. Since, the prominent very special trait of ‘Jungmo 7003’ is white flower, it can be used for landscaping purposes created farm-art images. The flowering date of ‘Jungmo 7003’ was 16th April and ripening date was 5th June. The yield of ‘Jungmo 7003’ was 207 kg/10a, which was 6% lower than ‘Hanlayuchae' in regional adaptation trials. ‘Jungmo 7003’ showed high resistance to screrotium. The oil content of ‘Jungmo 7003’ was 43.8%. In fatty acid composition of ‘Jungmo 7003’, oleic acid content is 68.4%, which is 1.2% higher than ‘Hanlayuchae'. ‘Jungmo 7003’ will be adaptable to southwestern area including Jeonllanam-do, Jeollabuk-do and Gyeongsangnam-do and Jeju island of Korea.
