We aimed to predict the Italian ryegrass (IRG) productivity change of introduced and domestic varieties based on climate factors and identify suitable areas for IRG cultivation using the RCP 8.5 scenario. The minimum mean air temperature in January showed the highest correlation with productivity. The ratio of possible and low productivity areas was high in Gangwondo, and the ratio of suitable and best suitable areas was relatively high in the central and southern regions in the past 30 years. The change in the IRG cultivation area was found to be 26.9% in the best suitable area between 1981–2010 but increased significantly to 88.9% between 2090s. In the IRG suitability comparison classes between domestic and introduced cultivars, the ratio of suitable and best suitable areas was relatively high in the domestic varieties during the past 30 years. However, there is almost no difference between the IRG domestic and introduced varieties in the IRG suitability classes after the 2050s. These results can predict changes in the IRG suitability classes between domestic and introduced cultivars according to the climate change scenario, but there are limitations in accurately predicting the productivity of IRG because the results may vary depending on other environmental factors.

We found ten species of larvae belonging to the family Pleuronectidae as a result of analysis on ichthyoplankton collected monthly from the East Sea, Yellow Sea, Korea Strait and East China Sea between February 2016 and May 2018 using bongo net. The ten species of pleuronectid larvae were divided into three groups in morphology. Group A had three or four bars on the lateral side of the tail: Glyptocephalus stelleri, G. kitaharae, Pseudopleuronectes yokohamae, and Hippoglossoides dubius. Group B had a row of melanophores along the dorsal and ventral side of tail: Cleisthenes pinetorum, Eopsetta grigorjewi, Dexistes rikuzenius, and Platichthys bicoloratus. Group C had dense melanophores which are covering trunk and tail entirely except caudal peduncle: Platichthys cornutus and Platichthys japonicus. The three groups did not associate with previous molecular phylogenetic studies except for the G. stelleri and G. kitaharae of the group A.

The black pine bast scale are the main insects of the Japanese black pine forest in Korea, and the distribution is spreading around the Japanese black pine forest in the east and west coast. However, after the nationwide survey in 2010, there has been no investigation on the distribution and spread of these, so we conducted the 2017 and 2018 surveys to determine the extent of the northern area inland or east and west. In the 2017 survey, outbreaks were observed in 35 areas from 47 dong or myeon of 14 cities or counties, mainly in areas not previously located in the outbreak area. In the 2018 survey, additional outbreaks were confirmed at 14 out of 23 areas in the East Coast region, and damage was detected at 27 out of 28 points in the inland area of the South Sea and distribution was found at 16 out of 17 in the west coast.

본 연구는 강산 분위기에서 아연의 산화 환원 반응을 통한 폐수 중 질산성 질소 제거에 관한 연구이다. 폐수에 황산(H2SO4)을 첨가하여 강산 분위기를 조성한 다음, 아연과 설파믹산을 넣어주게 되면 금속 아연이 산화되고, 이온화된 질산성 질소가 환원 처리되어 제거되는 연구이다. 산화 반응은 강산 분 위기일수록 반응이 잘 일어나기 때문에 pH 2.0~4.0 범위 중 pH 2.0에서 제거효율이 높았다. 설파믹산을 첨가함으로써 질산 이온을 최종 질소가스로 환원시켜 제거하는 것이 설파믹산이 존재하지 않을 때보다 H+ 이온 소모량이 적기 때문에 설파믹산을 투입하는 것이 유리하였다. 같은 아연 양에 따라 설파믹산을 넣지 않은 것은 질산성 질소가 46.0% 제거되는 반면, 설파믹산을 넣게 되면 질산성 질소가 93.0% 제거 된다. 본 실험에서 아연은 입자가 분말 형태로 제조되어 반응성이 다른 일반 아연 금속보다 크기 때문에 반응 후 1분 만에 제거 효율이 약 80.0% 로 매우 높게 나타났다.

The purpose of the study was to identify the relationship transformational leadership, job satisfaction, and organizational commitment of nutrition teacher(dietitian) in school foodservice organization. A total of 209 employees in school foodservice operation were surveyed using a self-administrated questionnaire. The data were analyzed using SPSS Windows(Ver. 18.0) for descriptive analysis and reliability analysis, correlation analysis, and regression. the respondents were 89.0% female, 90.4% under high school, and 90.4% under contract employment. The transformational leadership factors - Charisma (p<0.001), intellectual stimulation, and individual consideration - had positive effects on job satisfaction and organizational commitment. In conclusion, transformational leadership(Charisma) of dietitian directly contributed to job satisfaction and organizational commitment in school foodservice employees.

Pleurotus citrinopileatus was successfully cultivated and commercially available in Korea. The antioxidant, xanthine oxidase, tyrosinase inhibitory activities and polyphenol contents of fruiting bodies of Pleurotus citrinopileatus extracted with acetone, hot water and methanol (hereinafter referred to Fr. Ace, Fr. HW and Fr. MeOH). The antioxidant activities on β-carotene-linoleic acid in the Fr. Ace, Fr. HW and Fr. MeOH were 96.12%, 94.21% and 96.52%, respectively at the concentration of 20 mg/ml. Xanthine oxidase inhibition activity in the Fr. Ace, Fr. HW and Fr. MeOH were 30.12%, 35.42% and 29.02%, respectively at the concentration of 5 mg/ml. Tyrosinase inhibition activity in the Fr. Ace, Fr. HW and Fr. MeOH were 58.78%, 49.25% and 63.29%, respectively at the concentration of 1.0 mg/ml. Total polyphenol contents in the Fr. Ace, Fr. HW and Fr.

본 연구는 초미세분쇄기술을 이용하여 옥수수전분의 입자구조파괴가 이루어졌을 때 분자구조적, 물리적 변화가 어떻게 이루어지는지를 구명하고자 하였다. 초미세 분쇄처리 후 옥수수전분의 평균직경은 약 50% 감소가 이루어졌으며 비표면적은 567% 증가하였다. 초미세분쇄처리 전·후의 옥수수전분에 대한 분자량분포를 GPC로 측정한 결과 분쇄 후 저분자량의 Peak II의 면적이 21.0%에서 86.5%로 상승하였다. 손상전분 함량은 각각 9.63%와 83.57%로 초미세분쇄처리에 의하여 크게 증가하였다. 옥수수전분의 경우는 겔(gel)을 형성하였으나 초미세분쇄처리 후에는 전분의 분쇄과정에서 전분입자파괴와 아울러 옥수수전분의 분자량이 저분자화 되면서 겔 형성능력이 크게 저하되었다.
