느타리 ‘흑타리’ 품종의 배양 중 고온스트레스에 의해 발생되는 미발이 현상을 구명하기 위하여 배양온도에 따른 생육차이를 조사하였다. PDA 배지에서‘흑타리’의 적정생육온도는 23~26 ̊C였고, 균사생장속도는 ‘춘추2호’에 비하여 빠른편이었다. 병내 배지온도는 초기에 상승하여 배양 중반에 최고점에 도달한 후 온도가 하강하였다. 배양 온도가 높을수록 배양기간은 짧아졌다. 배양온도 20 ̊C 처리구에서 배양기간은 25일 정도 소요되었으며, 미발이율은 1.8%, 수량은 139.4 g/병을 나타내었다. 배양온도 24 ̊C 처리구에서 배양기간은 20일 정도 소요되었으며, 미발이율은 4.2%, 병당수량은 132.1 g/병을 나타내었다. 배양온도 16 ̊C와 28 ̊C처리구에서는 미발이율이 증가되었고 수량이 감소하였다. 이 결과를 바탕으로 농가에서 배양온도와 미발이율의 관계를 조사하였다. 배양실 온도를 18 ̊C로 설정하고 배지품온을 28 ̊C 미만으로 관리하는 농가는 미발이율이 0.3~0.8%를 나타내었다. 배양실내의 온도가 20 ̊C 이상이며 환기가 잘 이루어지지 않은 농가에서는 미발이율이 3.5% 정도 발생되었다. 배양실 온도가 19 ̊C이며 배지 최고 품온이 31.3 ̊C까지 상승하는 농가는 미발이율이 8.2%로 높게 나타났다. 배양중 병내부 온도가 28 ̊C이상 상승하고 배양실내의 환기가 잘 이루어지지 않을 경우 미발이율이 증가하고 수량이 감소되는 경향을 보였다. 결과적으로, 배양실은 배지품온이 28 ̊C 이상 상승하지 않도록 배양실 내부의 공기를 지속적으로 순환시키고, 배양공간에 맞는 최적의 배양량을 넣어 관리하여야 한다.

This study aims to subdivide consumers by attributes determined mainly by consumers of fresh ginseng. It is to compare and analyze the characteristics by cluster, and to deduce the implications on distribution and marketing. For this study, a survey was conducted targeting 250 consumers of fresh ginseng. The factors were deduced through performing the exploratory factor analysis on the results of the survey, and the consumers of fresh ginseng were classified through cluster analysis. As a result of the study, the attributes considered for the purchase of fresh ginseng were condensed to the three factors: physical characteristic factor, safety factor, and cultivation indication information factor. With these as the standard, the consumers of fresh ginseng were subdivided into the three clusters: safety-oriented consumption type, label-centered consumption type, and high involvement consumption type. It was found that there were differences in demographic characteristics and attributes considered for purchase of fresh ginseng by cluster analysis. This study suggests the implications for revitalization of the fresh ginseng industry by subdividing consumers of fresh ginseng and suggesting the characteristics by cluster.

This study was performed to investigate the status of using agricultural information and develope desirable strategy to offer agricultural information for leaf vegetables farmers.187 farmers are surveyed to collect data. Many farmers get agricultural information through various channel.They satisfied with agricultural information contents, rightness of time but dissatisfied with the easiness of gain, fitness of information relatively. And the mean score of farmer's information needs on agricultural information were higher than that of theoretical mean. relatively high items were new seed information, technology of cultivation, pesticide purchase and prevention, laborer finding, consumer information, the trend of leaf vegetables price, marketing place, government's agricultural policy and laws etc.To make farmers get information easily, we recommend to gather information at one place and provide them on internet portal site composed with information related for paddy rice farmers. To make desirable information service system, farmers should bring up their internet searching ability, and agricultural extension officers in count/city have to make effort to provide useful information more often by various communication methods such as visiting farmers, using internet or e-mail service, pamphlet, and so on.

Background : Panax ginseng C. A. Meyer is a slow-growing perennial herb that is cultivated in shading condition. Climate change occur around the world that make a lot of problem such as damage of high temperature, drought, salinity and disease. The problems lower the ginseng productivity that cause income reduction of farmers. To achieve stable ginseng production, development of elite varieities resistant to abiotic and biotic stresses is consistently required. It is very time consuming process in order to develop new ginseng varieties because ginseng flowers after 3 years of growth. So, early selection system of elite line must be established. This study was conducted to develope efficient ginseng breeding techniques for early identification of heat or salinity resistance. Methods and Results : Ginseng petioles was soaked in mixed salts solution consisting of KNO3, KH2PO4, MgSO4․H2O in order to test resistant or susceptible salinity. The degree of resistance was quantified according to damage size. Also, ginseng lines transplanted in pot were treated 46℃ for 1 hour and then chlorophyll fluorescence reaction were measured in order to test resistant or susceptible high-temperature. The measured values such as Fm/Fo, Fv/Fm, Rfd were differentiated between resistant and susceptible line. Conclusion : Several lines showed that they are resistance to high temperature or salinity. The selected lines will be utilized for parents to develop new varieties.

Background : When ginseng seeds were gathered, the seeds were unripe. To grow immature embryo definitely, special treatment called dehiscence must be performed. Even though dehiscence is completed, most ginseng seeds are on enforced dormancy. The breaking seed dormancy is generally achieved using cold treatment. Also it is reported that gibberellin treatment can replace the treatment. It is very time consuming process in order to develop new ginseng cultivar because ginseng flowers after 3 years of growth. To shorten the ginseng breeding period, it is necessary to establish fast generation progress. Therefore, this study examined the possibility of breaking seed dormancy of ginseng using GA3 treatment and alternating temperature. Methods and Results : Seeds were obtained from local variety fruit which is not inbred. Gibberellin of 100 ppm was treated at seeds for 24 hours. Fixed cold condition was treated on both –2℃ and 2℃. Alternating cold condition was treated on 2℃ and then –2℃, finally 2℃. Fixed and alternating temperature was continued for 15, 30, 45, 60, 90 days that 15 days of alternating temperature is first 2℃ for 5days and then -2℃ for 5days, finally 2℃ for 5days. The other treatment periods such as 30, 45, 60, 90 days mean 10, 15, 20, 30 days respectively. Each of 48 seeds were sowed on tray in greenhouse at 3 replication. Experimental plot was completely randomized. Conclusion : Seeds untreated with GA3 were germinated little and there is no difference between 2℃ and –2℃. Alternating temperature until 60days made no difference with fixed temperature but germination rate increased up to 70.8% when seeds were treated for 90days. Germination of seeds treated with GA3 is much higher than untreated seeds especially combined with alternating temperature.

Totally, 26 collections, 17 from Korea and 9 from China, were investigated for their sequences of 5S rDNA, especially the non-transcribed spacers (NTSs). Sequences of 5S rDNA were isolated by PCR using the primers, 5s-rRNA1 and 5s-rRNA2. Genomic DNA PCR produced single amplification of 300, 330, or 350 base pair fragments. Sequence analysis revealed that all inserts contained the part of 5S rDNA gene sequence and the full length of the NTS region. Three different sizes of the fragments were confirmed due to different size of NTS and their length were 300bp, 330bp and 350bp, respectively. Among 17 Korean foxtail millets tested, 14 collections showed single 300bp amplification. Longest fragment amplification, 350bp, was obtained only from the foxtail millet from China origin, even though 2 of them include 300bp fragment. CLUSTALW multiple alignments of 26 foxtail millets clearly revealed 4 areas with certain degree of sequence heterogeneity (region I, II, III, IV). Among 4 boxed areas, foxtail millet genotypes from China have distinct insertion especially in region III. Five of them have extra insertion of sequence and their additional sequences were either 45 or 48 base pair. Three Korean foxtail millets have 32 bp insertion. Other 8 Korean collections have short insert sequences (6 to 8 bp), 3 with 8 bp and 5 with 6 bp. In addition to insert, deletion sequences were also confirmed as major deletion was observed in region II of Chinese collection. The size of deletion was 7 bp long. According to phylogenic tree constructed using MEGA4 program, clear grouping was not revealed. To obtain more convincing results various collections from many countries should be obtained and analyzed to distinguish different germplasm from different origin.

A new barley (Hordeum Vulgare L.) cultivar ‘Wooho’ was developed by Honam National Agricultural Research Institute (HARI) in 2005. It had good forage characteristics (smooth awn) and showed high forage production in the 5 locations of paddy field. ‘Wooho’ was developed from the cross between SB87125〔Oweol//(SB77011)/SB79124 (Bengei//Hagane/ Bunong) ///Y7213-SD607-CM67-Milyang12〕and SB83024 (1012.2-IB65/Ol//Samheung/Suwon18-Gang) made in 1994. Subsequent selections were made throuhg bulked and pedigree selection methods. SB94104-B-B-B-B-79 was selected for smooth awn and agronomic performance in 2001 and placed in preliminary yield trial. In 2003, it was designated as ‘Suwon 396’ and performed regional yield trials. The average forage yield of ‘Wooho’ were 11.0 MT/ha and 10.9 MT/ha at May 20 and drought stage, respectively. The shattering rate of ‘Wooho’ was lower than that of ‘Ol’. It showed superior forage quality to the check variety when harvest early drought stage. ‘Wooho’ would be recommended as a cultivar of barley for whole crop forage with smooth awn.
