This study was conducted to investigate the effects of summer green manure crops as an alternative for imported expeller cake fertilizer on environment-friendly lettuce production. Sunnhemp, soybean, sudangrass, and sorghum, as summer green manure crops, were evaluated under the condition of a plastic film house. In the amount of nitrogen supplied through cultivation of green manure crops, soybean plot, which supplied 187 kg ha-1, was the highest, followed by sorghum plot, 156 kg ha-1. Since all green manure plots supplied more nitrogen than that required by soil testing, it was possible to replace the nitrogen supply of expeller cake fertilizer with the amount of nitrogen produced by green manures for autumn lettuce cultivation. N nutrient balances in sunnhemp, sudangrass, soybean, and sorghum plots were 13 kg ha-1, 28 kg ha-1, 30 kg ha-1, and 38 kg ha-1, respectively. The initial yield and total yield of lettuce showed no significant difference in green manure plots compared to the expeller cake plot, but . It was thought that all green manure crops could be substituted for expeller cake fertilizer used as nitrogen fertilizer, but it would be necessary to adjust the cultivation period and reduction point according to the type of green manure in order to maintain the C/N ratio, nitrogen supply, and nitrogen balance suitable for lettuce production.

우리나라 재래종벼 6품종의 벼 흰잎마름병 저항성 유전자를 동정하고자 저항성 유전자 Xa1를 갖는 IR-BB 101과의 교배조합을 양성하고 일본균주 ⅠA(T7174)를 접종한 결과 청군벼의 벼 흰잎마름병 저항성 유전자는 Xa1 이었고, 육성재래, 아국도, 흑피 및 이천7일찰은 Xa1 및 다른 우성유전자 1개를 보유하였으며, 긴까락샤레는 Xa1 및 다른 우성유전자 2개를 갖고 있었고 이 중 2개는 저항성 발현에 보족적으로 작용하는 것으로 추정되었다.

This study was carried out to get the information of Plum tree (192 germplasm) collected in Korea, and to evaluate the organic acid contents and fermentation solution. The organic acid content of fruit was 50.9 ± 6.0 ㎎/g, and which was composed of 55.5% of citric acid, 43.4% of malic acid and 1.1% of oxalic acid, and showed large difference among germplasms. Oxalic acid and malic acid made no differences in organic acid content according to flesh color, whereas citric acid and total organic acid contents were highest in orange color and lowest in whitish green. Malic acid, citric acid and total organic acid contents did not show differences among fruit weight groups, but oxalic acid content was highest at fruit weight of 5.1 ~ 10.0 g and lowest at more than 20.1 g. The sugar content of fermentation solution of fruit was 55.7 ± 1.6 °Brix and the harvest rate was 116.7 ± 8.7%. The correlation coefficients among fruit weight, the sugar content (°Brix) and harvest rate of fermentation solution were very low, and there were correlations of r=–0.551** between fruit weight and oxalic acid, r=– 0.767** between malic acid and citric acid, and r=0.834** between citric acid and total organic acid content.

본 연구는 동백나무의 대량번식 및 양묘를 위한 기초 정보를 제공하기 위하여 종자 무게와 저장방법에 따른 발아특성과 유묘생장을 조사하였다. 실온저장과 4℃건조저장의 발아율은 종자 무게에 따라 일정한 경향이 없었다. 4℃ 습윤모래저장의 발아율은 종자무게가 무거울수록 높아졌으나 저장 120일에 매우 낮은 발아율을 나타내었다. 4℃ 습윤여과지저장의 발아율은 60 일, 90일, 120일 저장 모두 80% 이상으로 높았고, 종자 무게에 따른 발아율의 차이도 거의 나타나지 않았다. 평균발아일수는 실온저장과 건조저장에서 30일 내외의 긴 시간이 요구되었지만 습윤저장(모래, 여과지)은 13일 내외로서 짧았다. 엽수, 엽건물중, 줄기직경, 뿌리건물중은 종자 무게 1.21 g 이상부터 평균치를 상회하였고, 줄기길이는 종자 무게 1.01 g, 식물체건물중은 종자 무게 0.81 g, 줄기건물중은 종자 무게 0.61 g부터 유묘의 평균치를 상회하였다. 유묘 생장은 종자 무게가 무거울수록 양호하였으며, T/R율은 종자가 무거울수록 낮아지는 경향이었다. 동백나무 유묘의 대량생산을 위해서는 종자 무게 및 크기를 구체화할 필요성이 있고, 파종을 위한 종자저장은 4℃ 습윤여과 지저장이 가장 효율적인 방법으로 평가되었다.

This study was conducted to investigate the antioxidant activity in the leaves and stems of 50 tomato accessions, in order to examine the possibility of using tomato by-products as a functional material. The extracts of the leaves (LE) and stems (SE) were analyzed for DPPH, ABTS, and total polyphenol content (TPC). Antioxidant activities and TPC differed significantly between the LE and SE of the 50 tomato accessions. TPC in LE and SE showed wide variation, ranging from 24.4 to 60.6 and 12.5 to 18.8 ㎎ GAE/g, respectively. The DPPH and ABTS antioxidant activities of LE ranged from 10.0 to 38.2% (scavenging effect) and 20.8 to 59.0 ㎎ ASC/g, respectively, while the DPPH and ABTS measurements of SE were 1.4 to 8.8% and 2.2 to 22.5 ㎎ ASC/g, respectively. As assessed by the relative antioxidant capacity index (RACI), IT033117 and IT203466 had the highest antioxidant activity in LE and SE, respectively. These results will expand the knowledge of antioxidant activity and provide information on tomato accessions valuable for the development of functional foods and food additives.
