아시아 주요국으로 ‘Shine Muscat’ 포도를 수출하기 위하여 수출대상국의 농약잔류허용기준(MRL)에 적합하며 안정적이고 우수한 품질의 포도를 생산할 수 있는 포도 병해 방제력을 개발하고자 하였다. 경북 경산과 상주 지역의 간이비가림시설에서 재배되는 ‘Shine Muscat’ 포장에서 수출 대상국에서 허용 된 약제 중에서 포도 재배에 많이 사용되는 살균제를 선발하였고, 재배 기간 동안의 병해 발생을 방제하기 위하여 개화전부터 성숙기까지 10-11회 살포하였다. 2년에 걸쳐 약제를 살포하고 수확 전 병해 발생 여부를 조사하고 수확 후에는 과실의 품질 특성과 잔류 농약을 분석하였다. 갈색무늬병, 노균병, 탄저병이 발생하였으며, 2019년 2번 처리구에서 전체적으로 82% 이상의 방제가를 나타내었다. 과실 품질 특성은 지역별로 약간의 차이를 나타냈고 모든 처리구에서 농약 잔류량은 0.00-0.20 mg/kg 수준으로 주요 수출국의 MRL 이하로 검출되었다. 본 연구에서는 최근 수출량이 증가하는 ‘Shine Muscat’ 포도 재배에 활용할 수 있으며 안전한 수출용 포도를 생산할 수 있는 병해 방제력을 개발하였으며, 국내의 포도 수출 농가에 도움이 될 것으로 생각된다.

This study was conducted to compare the effect of salicylic acid (SA), an ethylene biosynthesis inhibitor, and the 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) fumigation, to prevent fruit quality deterioration and physiological disorders during the shelf-life of Korea’s leading export grape variety ‘Campbell Early’. The berries treated with SA after 1- MCP fumigation (1-MCP+SA) showed a higher firmness value and titratable acidity than single treatment of SA or 1-MCP. The rate of shattered berry was high as 41.7% for 100ppm ethephon spray, 40.8% for 25μM SA, and 38.2% for 1,000ppb 1-MCP, but showing only 18.7% when the SA was applied after 1-MCP fumigation. The ratio of short brushes less than 1mm was largest at 74.3% for ethephon treatment, while 1-MCP+SA treatment was found to have the longest brush length among all treatments, with a 2-4mm ratio of 22.8% and a 4-6mm ratio of 27.9%. The weight of rachis was found to be the lowest at 2.3g in the ethephon treatment, and the reduction of rachis weight loss per cluster by 1-MCP+SA treatment was evident. In addition, 1-MCP+SA treatment were effective in mitigating stem browning and berry decay during the 16-day storage period at 19oC in this cultivar, so it is believed that they can be used as a practical post-harvest treatment in grape exportation.

We propose some countermeasures needed to cope with fortifying international regulations for fisheries subsidies. The government should rigorously select the recipients of fisheries subsidies to ensure that they are not engaged in ineffective projects by resorting to subsidies. On the other hand, the government should make the individual applicant’s application for the subsidies easier by exempting them from the submission of a burdensome feasibility report. As for the strengthening regulatory international movements against the fisheries subsidies, we can consider the following countermeasures. One is not to designate and provide prohibitive subsidies in such a way that violates international norms. The other one is to reform the domestic fisheries subsidies system in Korea with the following points considered. It should be considered that fisheries subsidies, which can be categorized as the actionable subsidies, should not be granted to the items that can be exported but to the items that can be used for domestic consumption or processing. In the case of non-actionable subsidies, the subsidies are mainly allowed for promotion of public-sector research and development, regional development, and adaptation to new environmental regulations. Thus, the non-actionable subsidies should be designated in the consideration of the allowances for these activities.

The purpose of this case study was to investigate the effects of thoracic mobilization and manipulation on a patient with upper thoracic pain. The subject had been complaining of upper thoracic pain for the last 4 months. On the X-ray, T3 and T4 spinous process were located on the left side of the vertical axis. First, transverse mobilization was applied from left to right at the T3-T4 and then thoracic manipulation was performed. The intervention methods of mobilization and manipulation were based on the concept of Maitland manual therapy. The subject underwent a total of 20 sessions (five times per week for four weeks). The thoracic pain and vertebral rotation angle were measured to examine the effect of the intervention. The thoracic pain score decreased (from 4.0 to 1.5) and the angle of thoracic vertebral rotation decreased (from 7.0º to 4.0º). These results suggest that applied mobilization and manipulation in patients with a primary complaint of thoracic pain decreasing the thoracic pain and vertebral rotation angle.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the health conditions of occupation group and hobby group related to visual display terminal (VDT) syndrome. The VDT occupation group was mainly composed of the worker in banks, telephone companies, and general offices. The VDT-related hobby group was composed of high school students, and Internet cafe users. A questionnaire survey was conducted to classify the subjects according to hours of computer usage. The results indicated that the occupation group represented a higher level of subjective symptoms than VDT-related hobby group. In the VDT occupation group, ‘Poor body condition’, ‘Feeling uncomfortable or pain in the neck’‘, Feeling uncomfortable or pain in the back’‘, Feeling stressed out’, and‘ Feeling uncomfortable or pain in the shoulder’ items indicated a high level of subjective symptoms. In the VDT-related hobby group, ‘Feeling uncomfortable or pain in the neck’, and‘ Feeling uncomfortable or pain in the back’ items indicated a high level of subjective symptoms. According to the hours of computer usage, 4-6 hours and 6 hours or more groups represented a higher level of subjective symptoms than 2-4 hours group. These findings suggest that Visual display terminal (VDT) work effects the individual's health conditions.

본 연구는 AVG처리가 ‘홍로’사과 표피의 지질물질 변화량에 미치는 영향을 구명하고자 실시하였다. 수확 후 상온에서 저장한 ‘홍로’사과의 내생 에틸렌 농도는 220 mg • L−1 AVG처리구는 무처리구와 200 mL • L−1 Ethephon처리구에 비해 현저히 낮은 수준을 보였으며, 같은 기간 지질물질 발생량도 다른 처리구보다 낮은 수준을 유지하였다. 따라서 수확 2주전 220 mg • L−1 AVG처리는 내생 에틸렌 농도를 낮추어 과실의 노화를 지연시킬 뿐만 아니라 과실 표피의 지질물질 축적도 줄여줌으로써 상온유통이 되는 ‘홍로’ 사과의 과실품질 향상 및 유지에 효과적이다.

Near infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS) has become increasingly used as a rapid and accurate method of evaluating some chemical compositions in forages and feedstuff. This study was carried out to explore the accuracy of near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) for the prediction of chemical parameters of fresh whole crop barley silages. A representative population of 284 fresh whole crop barley silages was used as a database for studying the possibilities of NIRS to predict chemical composition. Samples of silage were scanned at 1 nm intervals over the wavelength range 680~2,500 nm and the optical data were recorded as log 1/Reflectance (log 1/R) and were scanned in fresh condition. NIRS calibrations were developed by means of partial least-squares (PLS) regression. NIRS analysis of fresh whole crop barley silages provided accurate predictions of moisture, acid detergent fiber (ADF), neutral detergent fiber (NDF), crude protein (CP) and pH, as well as lactic acid content with correlation coefficients of cross-validation (R2cv) of 0.96, 0.81, 0.79, 0.84, 0.72 and 0.78, respectively, and standard error of cross-validation (SECV) of 1.26, 2.83, 2.18, 1.19, 0.13 and 0.32% DM, respectively. Results of this experiment showed the possibility of the NIRS method to predict the chemical parameters of fresh whole crop barley silages as a routine analysis method in feeding value evaluation and for farmer advice.

In order to select the superior lines of bumblebee queens(Bombus terrestris) in oviposition and colony development which has some characteristics of diapause with adult type, undiapaused bumblebee queens of 3rd generation were surveyed in room condition compared to queen treated with CO2 and artificial hibernation. Oviposition rate and preovipositional days of undiapaused queens was lower in efficacy with 46.7% and shows same trend in preovipositional days with 52.8 days than the other treatment with CO2 anesthesia and artificial hibernation with 60.0%, 86.7%, 26.1 days and 26.6 days respectively. In continuous experiment, we also surveyed ovipositional characteristic and colony development of three types of queens emergenced from undiapaused queens and treated queens with CO2 and artificial hibernation. Although undiapaused queens in 1st generation were more effective in the same condition than treated queens, but the undiapaused queens of 3rd generation emergenced from undiapaused queens of 2nd generation were very low trend in all checkpoints compared with treated queens in same generation. This results was shown that the queens treated with CO2 or artificial hibernation need to be in successive mass rearing continuously in the year round.

Korea is a origin of three basic species, P. ussuriensis, P. pyrifolia and P. fauriei. Genetic relationship among Korean pear cultivars compared with their parents were also identified that they are closely related P. pyrifolia, P. ussuriensis and/or hybrid between two species. SSRs or Microsatellites are co-dominant and typically neutral inheritance showing high degree of polymorphism, large number of alleles per locus, abundance in genomes, and suitability for automation. SSR markers were developed in apple and pear where they were used for construction of genetic linkage maps, evaluation of the genetic diversity, cultivar identification, genotype identification, and in the determination of genetic relatedness. Many apple (Malus × domestica Borkh.) SSRs would be useful for genetic mapping in European and Asian pears in previous experiments and cross-species amplification was observed between apple and pear. The objectives of this study were to develop polymorphic SSR markers in ‘Whangkeumbae’ and ‘Minibae’, which were chosen as the representative cultivars of P. pyrifolia and P. ussuriensis in each among Korean pears, from ‘Golden Delicious’ genomic sequences generated by next generation sequencing technology and to evaluate the utility of the SSR markers based on ‘Golden Delicious’ sequences. Of 51 SSR markers, 18 were polymorphic in ‘Whangkeumbae’ and ‘Minibae’. The cross-species transportability of primers designed in ‘Golden Delicious’ sequences makes SSR markers more useful, given the current high level of investment in mapping the genomes of related Rosaceae.

Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are the most frequent type among variations found in genomic regions and are valuable markers for genetic mapping, genetic diversity studies and association mapping in plants. There are three basic species known as Korean native which are Pyrus ussuriensis, P. pyrifolia, and P. fauriei. Genetic relationship among Korean pear cultivars compared with their parents was identified that they are closely related P. pyrifolia, P. ussuriensis and/or hybrids between two species. Lack of genetic resources, including molecular markers to study pears are very severe. Recently developed next generation sequencing (NGS) platforms offer opportunities for high-throughput and inexpensive genome sequencing and rapid marker development. The objective of this study was to develop polymorphic SNP markers in ‘Whangkeumbae’ and ‘Minibae’, which were chosen as the representative cultivars of P. pyrifolia and P. ussuriensis × pyrifolia in each among Korean pears, using genomic sequences generated by NGS technology. In this study, more than 18.6 Gbp and 15.8 Gbp sequences were obtained from NGS of ‘Whangkeumbae’ and ‘Minibae’, respectively. ‘Whangkeumbae’ and ‘Minibae’ contained 2,712,288 and 2,747,224 SNPs, respectively. In SNPs validations between ‘Whangkeumbae’ and ‘Minibae’, the number of polymorphic SNPs were 2,516,438 and non-polymorphic SNPs were 1,179,391. For HRM primer design, 2,125,479 HRM candidate primers were obtained from polymorphic SNPs and 343,731 SNP primers were developed. This study shows that the utility of NGS technology to discover efficiently a large number of SNPs and SNP primers can provide valuable information in the genome study of Pyrus spp.
