본 연구는 적외선 열 영상 장치를 이용하여 2년생 ‘유미’ 복숭아나무의 토양수분 수준에 따른 엽온 및 CWSI를 분석하여 수분스트레스 측정 가능성을 검토하였다. 엽온은 대기온도와 유사한 일변화를 보이며 낮 시간대에는 대기온도보다 높은 양상을 보였다. 엽온은 전일(24시간) 기준으로 대기온도(r2 = 0.95), 일사량(r2 = 0.74), 상대습도(r2 = -0.88)와 모두 높은 상관계수를 나타났다. 또한 토양수분장력은 낮 시간대(11~16시)에 엽온(r2 = -0.57), 엽-대기온도차(r2 = -0.71), CWSI(r2 = -0.72)와 높은 부의상관을 나타냈다. CWSI와 엽온, 엽-대기온도차의 상관계수는 24시간 기준으로 매우 높았고(r2 = 0.90, r2 = 0.92), CWSI와 토양수분장력의 상관분석에서 24시간 기준으로는 상관관계가 낮았으나(r2 = -0.27), 낮 시간대(11~16시)에는 상관관계가 매우 높았다(r2 = -0.72). CWSI (y)와 토양수분장력(x)의 상관관계 결정계수(r2)는 11~12시간대에 가장 높았으며(r2 = 0.68), 이때 회귀식은 y = -0.0087x + 0.14로 조사되었다. 일반적인 토양수분스트레스 시점인 -50 kPa에 해당되는 CWSI는 0.575로 계산된다. 따라서 적외선 열 영상 장치를 이용한 엽온 및 CWSI는 토양수분장력에 대해 높은 상관계수를 나타낸 것으로 보아 복숭아나무의 수분스트레스 진단에 유용하게 활용할 수 있을 것으로 예상된다.

The Port of Pyeong Taek is located on the west coast, meaning that the difference between the rise and fall of tide is great (flood tide 1.8 to 2.9 knots, ebb tide 1.6 to 2.9 knots). Due to mainly N~NW’ly strong winds & high waves during winter, navigating as well as loading & discharging vessels must focus on cargo handling. The strong tidal and wind forces in the Port of Pyeong Taek can push an LNG carrier away from its berth, which will end up causing forced disconnection between the vessel’s cargo line and shore-side loading arm. The primary consequence of this disconnection will be LNG leakage, which will lead to tremendous physical damage to the hull and shore-side equipment. In this study, the 125K LNG Moss Type ship docked at No. 1 Pier of the Pyeong Taek is observed, and the tension of the mooring line during cargo handling is calculated using a combination of wind and waves to determine effective mooring line and mooring line priority management. As a result if the wind direction is 90° to the left and right of the bow, it was found that line monitoring should be performed bearing special attention to the Fore Spring Line, Fore Breast Line, and Aft Spring Line.

Japanese pine sawyer, Monochamus alternatus, is the main pest that mediates pine wilt nematode, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, that causes serious damage to pine forests. In this study, we studied the strategy to control M. alternatus using entomopathogenic fungi. The fungi were collected from soil by an insect-baiting method and two fungal isolates (Metarhizium anisopliae JEF-197 and JEF-279) showed high virulence against M. alternatus. The Metarhizium isolates were evaluated for insecticidal activity against M. alternatus by spray treatment on live pine trees and wintering trees, and the M. anisopliae JEF-197 showed high insecticidal activity. In addition, the interaction of fungi and M. alternatus were analyzed by RNA-seq. This result can contribute to the development of insect control agents using entomopathogenic fungi.

본 연구는 복숭아 주간부 동해 예방을 위한 피복재의 보온성을 평가하기 위해 백색부직포, 황색일반지, 방수패드로 만들어진 피복재의 물리적 특성 및 보온성을 평가하고 실제 겨울철 복숭아 주간부 보온효과를 구명하여 피복재로서의 이용가능성을 검토하기 위해 수행하였다. 세 피복재 중 2겹방수패드 처리가 보온율과 열저항성이 가장 우수하였다. 2겹방수패드 처리의 주간단열효과는 14.09oC 만큼 온도상승을 차단하였고, 야간보온효과는 7.23oC 만큼 온도하강을 차단하여 보온효과가 가장 우수함을 확인하였다. 따라서 방수패드 재질을 보온피복재로 개발·보급할 경우 복숭아 주간부 동해 피해를 경감시키는데 도움을 줄 수 있을 것으로 생각되었다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of low-intensity cardiac rehabilitation exercise on the cardiac function and the degree of fibrosis in an older white rat model. This study used male Sprague- Dawley white rats that were 50 weeks old. After the acute myocardial infarction induction, Twenty of the rats were randomly allocated into an experimental group and a control group, and each of the groups consisted of 8 rats. In the experimental group, the exercise was conducted for six weeks, 30 minutes a day, five days a week, using a Rotarod treadmill for animals. The degree of myocardial fibrosis was significantly repressed in the experimental group(13.69±1.90%) and in the control group(15.67±1.54%)(p<0.05). However, fractional shortening and ejection fraction did not show a significant difference. The results of this study suggest that cardiac rehabilitation with low intensity treadmill exercise repress the myocardial fibrosis.

The purpose of the study was to investigate effects of Low intensity cardiac rehabilitation, using a treadmill, on the myocardial structure. We identified the effects by analyzing changes in the rats' weights and the results of biopsies. Twenty Sprague-Dawley male rats, 50 weeks old, were randomly divided into the exercise group and the control group. myocardial infarction( MI) was induced by ligaturing their left anterior descending artery. After the acute MI induction, two rats of each group began to fall dead, therefore, eight of each group completed at the end of the experiment. We used treadmills for animals for the exercise group. This exercise group performed 30 minutes of exercise five times per week for six weeks, while the control group did not perform any exercise. No statistically significant differences in weight were found in within group comparison and between group comparison. Furthermore, we observed histological changes in the myocardium using Hematoxylin & Eosin and Masson's trichrome staining in both groups. Low-intensity exercise inhibited myocardial fibrosis, may serve as a reference in the cardiopulmonary field, which plays a role in rehabilitating patients with cardiac disorders, including acute MI.

The sex pheromone of Synanthedon bicingulata (Staudinger), a major pest of peach trees in many regions of northeast Asia, was identified. Two major components from the pheromone gland extracts of female moths are E3,Z13-18:OAc and Z3,Z13-18:OAc, and the average ratio of these components is about 4:6, respectively. In addition to the major components, four minor components, Z13-18:OAc, E2,Z13-18:OAc, E3,Z13-18:OH, and Z3,Z13-18:OH also were identified from pheromone gland extracts. Field tests showed that E3,Z13-18:OAc and Z3,Z13-18:OAc are essential for attraction of male S. bicingulata moths, and males are optimally attracted to the blend ratio found in pheromone gland extracts of conspecific females. Addition of the minor glandular components (Z13-18:OAc, E2,Z13-18:OAc, E3,Z13-18:OH, and Z3,Z13-18:OH) did not affect captures of males to the primary binary blend. Thus, the blend of E3,Z13-18:OAc and Z3,Z13-18:OAc at the natural ratio can be used for monitoring populations of this species.

Nokona regalis (Butler) and Toleria romanovi (Leech) (Lepidoptera: Sesiidae) are economically important pests of grape in northeast Asia. We compared the overwintering, damage and seasonal flight activities of these two species in Korean vineyards. Mature larvae of N. regalis overwintered in the infested shoots of grape, while T. romanovi overwintered as mature larvae enclosed within a cocoon in the soil. Larvae of the former species fed primarily in grape shoots (97.2%), whereas larvae of the latter species burrowed into main trunks (57.4%) and branches (40.4%), causing significant damage and frequent mortality. The seasonal fluctuation of male catches was monitored with pheromone traps in 2010. Male moths of N. regalis were present from late May until middle June, and peak abundance occurred in early June. T. romanovi males were trapped from early June to early August with peak catch in middle July in Suwon.

자두와 살구의 종간 교잡 과종인 플럼코트 ‘Harmony’ 품종의 생산성 향상을 위해 재식거리 6×3 m 조건에서 덕이 없는 Y자 수형, Y자 팔메트 수형으로 재배하고 수체 생장, 과실 특성, 과실 수확량을 비교하였다. 재식 5년차의 조사 결과에 의하면, 덕이 없는 Y자 수형, Y자 팔메트 수형에서 수체 생장량은 유사하였으나 수관 점유율은 Y자 팔메트 수형에서 높았고, 주당 수확 과실수 및 수확량도 Y자 팔메트 수형에서 높았다. 과실의 과중과 가용성고형물 함량은 수형간에 차이가 미미하였으며 덕이 있는 Y자 수형에서 과실 낙과율이 낮은 경향이었다. 재식 4~5 년차의 결과로 보아 Y자 팔메트 수형은 덕이 없는 Y자 수형에 비해 수관점유율 확대가 빠르며, 과실 착과량이 증가하고, 과실 낙과율을 경감하여 수확량 증대에 기여할 것으로 예상된다.

Background : Indigenous plant in Jeju island, Sasa quelpaertensis Nakai, belongs to the Bambusoideae and inhabit around Mt. Halla. According to the ancient book such as Dongui Bogam, Sasa quelpaertensis Nakai have been known to possess the antidiabetic, anti-inflammatory, and anti-diuresis effect. However, because of gradual upturning temperature, Sasa quelpaertensis Nakai was spread out to wider area and intrude the habitat that other plant species are growing. Recently, although the study to seek effective use of Sasa quelpaertensis Nakai, the investigation about functional properties has not been taken place enough. Methods and Results : To assess the inhibitory activity of melanin synthesis, we employ the tyrosine as substrate and measure the formation of dopaquione at 490 nm. Firstly, 0.1 mM potassium phosphate buffer and tyrosinase were mixed and incubated at 37℃. After incubating at 37℃, the absorbance rate was measured at 490 nm. The value was compared with positive control, arbutin, and calculated with the rate between sample and control value. Previously, formononetin, glabrene, glabridin, glabrol, artocarbene, dihydromoriin are known as effective substances for whitening. Moreover, the arbutin, which was separated from Arctostaphylos uva-ursi (L.) Sprengel, are widely used in cosmetic field. Arbutin inhibits tyrosinase and tyrosine synthesis, which induce blackish pigmentation. Practically, the Sasa quelpaertensis Nakai leaf ethanol extract depend on different solvent condition, whole extracts showed stronger inhibition than arbutin. Especially, 60% ethanol extract exhibited twice higher tyrosinase inhibitory activity than arbutin, whereas least inhibitory activity was seen in 20% ethanol extract. Conclusion : In this study, a attempt was made to investigate the tyrosinase inhibitory activity of Sasa quelpaertensis Nakai leaves extracted by different solvent condition. In the results, each extracts was prior to arbutin. Yet, 20% ethanol extract was lowest, but on the one hand, 60% ethanol extract demonstrated the highest tyrosinase inhibitory activity.
