The secondary growth model for Salmonella was developed based on the artificial neural network (ANN) with data collected from ComBase and FoodData Central. In addition to the existing secondary model variables (temperature, pH, Na+, and water contents), more input variables (sugar, carbohydrate, lipid, and protein contents) were considered. The output variables were microbial growth parameters (lag phase duration [l] and maximum growth rate [mmax]). A commercial ANN program (NeuralWorks Predict) was utilized with training at 80%, validation at 10%, and test data at 10%. ANN models were created using all data and cleansed data. Using the cleansed data, the training/testing root mean square error (RMSE) for mmax improved from 0.14/0.16 to 0.11/0.14, whereas the RMSE for l was still not acceptable, from 11.94/33.03 to 7.09/4.18. The l data were divided into two ranges with high and low goodness of fit, whereas the ANN model for each field was built, resulting in an optimally low RMSE.

수입된 관상용 부추속 종과 야생 부추속 종을 교배하고 새로운 품종을 얻기 위해서는 한국에 자생하는 부추속 종의 개화생리의 이해가 필요하다. 본 연구는 일장처리를 통해 자생 부추속 4종의 화아발달 및 생육특성을 알아보고자 수행하였다. 실험은 국립수목원 유용식물증식센터의 Phyto-Garden System에서 실시되었으며, 온도는 25℃, 습도는 70%로 유지 되었다. 꽃눈이 각 1개씩 출현한 개체를 이용하여, 2019년 6월 28일에 장일(LD, 16hours), 단일(SD, 9hours), 외부환경으로 나누어 실험하였다. LD와 SD처리에서 8:00~17:00(9h)까지 는 296±13μmol･m-2 ･s-1의 광도 하에서 실험하였다. 이후의 추가되는 시간은 형광등을 이용해 약 5μmol･m-2 ･s-1로 일장연장 (day extension, DE)처리를 하였다. 생육조사는 생장특성으로 초장, 초폭, 엽수, 엽장을, 개화특성으로는 꽃의 수와 개화소 요일수를 조사하였다. 실험결과, 한라부추의 단일처리에서 엽수를 제외한 초장, 초폭, 엽장, 엽폭이 장일처리 및 외부환경 보다 높게 측정되어, 4종의 부추속 식물 중 한라부추가 추대 이후 단일처리에서 가장 생장이 왕성한 것으로 확인하였다. 또한, 단일처리에서 개화소요일수는 각각 강부추 51.8일, 둥근 산부추 46.5일, 선부추 43.7일 그리고, 한라부추 52일로 나타 났다. 반면 장일처리의 개체들은 실험종료일까지 전혀 개화하지 않았다. 외부 환경조건에서는 부추속 4종이 평균적으로 97.2일째에 개화하였다. 본 실험은 자생 부추속 4종이 단일처리에서 외부환경보다 화아발달이 촉진되는 결과를 나타냈다.

Plant biomass is a huge carbon-complex that has potential as a nutrient. Therefore we extracted and separated useful materials for plant growth from tea leaf and stem. The pre-treatment process including high temperature (200 °C) and pressure (20-40 kgf/cm2) was treated for several minutes and extracted at 120 °C for 30-60 minutes. After that the chemical compositions and ingredients were analyzed from that plantnutrient. As a result of mineral contents, calcium and magnesium concentrations are higher than other minerals. Also the result of carbohydrates analyses has shown that the sugar oligomer consists of xylose(95.3%) and glucose(4.7%), and the sugar monomer consists in the order of xylose (52.7%) > manose (22.8%) > arabinose (10.8%) > galactose (10.2%) > glucose (3.5%). Before applied to field, in vitro plant growth system and formulation were examined. To evaluate the effect of the nutrients, both strawberry green-house and persimmon fields were used in this test. The treated persimmons were heavier than controls scored at 13-22%. In addition, the storageperiod was extended in the treated strawberries. Interestingly in the treated strawberry, the contents of polyphenols were increased (38-57%). These results suggest that the plant-nutrient can afford to help for plant growth and storage, and it can be substituted for other commercial nutrients. In conclusion, this plant-nutrient may help to extend eco-friendly or organic farming in Hadong-gun area.
