본 연구에서는 저온환경에서 콘크리트 동해를 방지하기 위해 생석회의 화학반응을 활용한 발열시트 및 단열재를 사용하여 제작한 거푸집 특성을 실험을 통해 평가하였다. -10°C 정온조건에서 거푸집 실험 결과, 발열시트가 부착된 거푸집의 경우 발열시트 내부 생석회의 발 열로 인해 타설 초기에 일반거푸집에 비해 10°C이상 높은 온도이력을 보여주었고 단열재를 부착한 거푸집의 경우 콘크리트 수화열을 보존하 여 지속적으로 높은 온도를 유지하는 특징을 나타냈다. 아이소핑크와 발열시트를 부착한 거푸집과 진공단열재를 붙인 거푸집이 압축강도나 적산온도에서 가장 높은 값을 가졌다. 압축강도 측정시 진공단열재 및 아이소핑크와 발열시트를 부착한 거푸집이 재령 3일에서 약 5 MPa로 가 장 높게 측정되었다. 몽골 현지 외기온도에서도 실험을 하였는데 앞선 결과와 마찬가지로 발열시트, 단열재를 함께 붙인 거푸집이 48시간 동안 25°C 이상으로 가장 높은 온도이력를 나타내었다. 따라서 거푸집에 발열시트 및 단열재 부착을 함으로써 발열 및 단열효과로 인해 저온환경에 서 콘크리트 강도발현에 도움을 주는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

본 연구는 저온환경에서 경화가 가능한 알루미나시멘트 및 아질산염을 사용한 보수용 시멘트 모르타르의 기초성능을 평가하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 국내 건설현장에서 사용되고 있는 보수용 모르타르를 조사 및 선정하였으며, 이를 대상으로 알루미나시멘트, 아질산염을 치 환하여 혼입량 조절에 따른 실험평가를 실시하였다. 그 결과, 알루미나시멘트, 아질산염을 보수용 모르타르에 치환하여 사용할 경우 초기 강도 발현이 증진되었다. 또한 내화학성이 개선되었고 수축거동이 감소하였으며 동결융해에 대한 저항성이 증대되었다. 알루미나시멘트와 아질산 염을 2:1의 비율로 7.5% 치환하여 외부구조물에 시공한 결과 표면상태가 5개월 이상 양호하게 유지되었으며, 실제 외부구조물에 사용성이 우 수한 것으로 판단된다.

이 연구는 상변화 물질(저온 PCM)을 포함한 경량 콘크리트의 기계적 성능을 검토하기 위해 수행되었다. Micro capsulised PCM은 wax type core와 melamine based wall으로 구성되어있다. 또한, 단일 종류의 PCM의 경우, Vermiculite에 파라핀 왁스를 삽입하고 그 표면을 멜 라민 수지로 코팅 하였다. 계면 중합은 1-dodecanol(핵심 물질)과 물(용매) 사이의 표면에서 중합반응이 일어나 벽 물질을 형성한다는 원리에 기반한다. 경량 콘크리트는 10 MPa의 압축 강도, 1.5 MPa의 인장 강도 및 1.0 kg/L의 절건 밀도를 가지며 10 %, 20 % 또는 30 %의 PCM을 포함 하고 있다. 이를 위해 예비 배합으로 경량 기포 콘크리트(1.0 kg/m3)를 제조 한 후 1-dodecanol 및 멜라민의 PCM 마이크로 캡슐과 혼합하여 그 물성을 조사하였다.

무스카리는 백합과의 단자엽식물로서 전세계에 약 50여종이 자생하고 있으며, 내한성이 강한 추식구근으로 지중해 연안과 중앙아시아 지역에 걸쳐 자생하고 있다. 주로 분화용이나 화단용으로 이용되며, 화색은 청색, 백색, 자주색이 있다. 우리나라에서는 번식은 주로 모구 의 기부에서 형성되는 자구를 분리하여 사용되고 있으나, 바이러스 감염, 모구의 비싼 가격, 대량번식의 어려움 등의 문제점이 있다. 따라 서 본 실험은 무스카리의 종자번식의 가능성을 알아보기 위해, 종자발아에 미치는 저온처리 및 발아에 필요한 온도와 광 조건에 대해 알아 보고자 실시하였다. 파종전 0과 15℃에서 15~90일까지 저온처리 후 20℃에서 파종한 결과 발아율이 0~6.7%로 매우 낮았다. 5와 10℃에 서는 저온 처리일수가 경과할수록 발아율이 높아졌는데, 5℃에서 75일과 90일처리는 파종전에 이미 각각 54%, 71%가 발아한 상태였고, 최종 발아율은 66.7%와 84.0%로 가장 높은 발아율을 보여 주었다. 5℃에서 70일간 저온처리 한 후 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30℃에서 파종하였는 데, 파종 전 발아율은 34%였고, 최종 발아율은 10℃에서 82.7%로 가장 높았고, 5와 15℃에서 각각 75.3%와 76.7%, 20~30℃에서는 48.0~58.0%로 나타났다. 그러나 50% 발아율까지의 일수는 15℃에서 4.7일로 가장 짧았으며, 10과 5℃에서 각각 18.7일, 28.3일로 길었 다. 따라서 무스카리 종자는 파종 전 5℃에서 75~90일간 저온처리한 후 10~15℃에서 파종하는 것이 발아율 향상에 효과적일 것으로 판단 되었다.

2014년 슬러지 발생량은 10,187ton/day로 2008년 기준 약 7,446ton/day에 비해 발생량이 약 37% 증가하였다. 하수슬러지의 발생량은 매년 증가할 것으로 예상되기 때문에 하수슬러지 발생량을 최소화 시키고 자원화하기 위한 여러 가지 대안 중 혐기성 소화방법과 슬러지 감량화 기술이 대안으로 제시되고 있다. 소화조는 장시간의 체류시간, 설계 값보다 낮은 소화효율 등의 고질적인 문제가 있으므로 슬러지를 효과적으로 처리 하기위해 이용 효율을 극대화하는 방안이 필요하다. 따라서 소화조 투입 전 단계에서 하수슬러지를 가용화하는 전처리를 실시하여 가수분해를 촉진시키고, 소화 효율을 높이는 방법을 이용하고 있다. 전처리 공정은 열적처리, 물리·화학적 처리, 생물학적 처리 등으로 구분되며, 이중 열적전처리 공정은 고온조건이나 저온조건에서 고분자 형태로 존재하는 슬러지를 저분자 형태로 전환시켜 바이오가스의 생산량과 소화효율을 증대시키는데 효과적인 것으로 알려져 있다. 열적전처리 중에서도 저온 열적전처리는 고온 열적전처리에 비해 공정 운전에 들어가는 에너지 소모량이 적고, 바이오가스 생산면에서도 효과적으로 알려져있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 생슬러지 및 잉여슬러지를 대상으로 60~120 ℃, 30~120분 조건에서 실시한 저온 열적전처리 공정에 의한 물리·화학적 특성 변화를 분석하고, BMP test를 통하여 바이오 가스 생산율을 평가하였다. 용존성 물질로 존재하는 SCODCr, NH4+, PO43-, VFAs 분석결과, 생슬러지 및 잉여슬러지 모두 열적전처리 온도가 상승함에 따라 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 가용화율은 120 ℃ 120분조건에서 SCODCr의 경우 가용화 전 각각 453mg/L, 1,698mg/L에서 열적전처리 후 최대 5,337mg/L, 8,769mg/L로 증가하였으며, TCODCr 중 SCODCr가 각각 약 12%, 18.6%차지하는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 저온열적가용화 또한 슬러지의 세포 floc 파괴에 의한 내부 물질의 용출에 기인하여 가수분해 단계를 촉진시켜 소화효율을 향상시킬 수 있다고 판단된다.

본 연구에서는 토마토를 일정한 기간(15일) 동안 저장하여 토마토의 품질인자인 감모율, 색상과 경도를 분석하고 비 파괴적 방법으로 토마토 경도를 측정한 결과로 경도와 감모율 사이의 상관관계를 분석하고 선형회귀모델을 도출하여 토마토 품질을 예측하고자 하였다. 그린하우스에서 재배된 ‘티와이250’품종을 수확한 후 일반 과실 종이 박스에 포장한 후 설정환경이 10℃, 90%RH인 항온항습챔버에 저장하여 3일 간격으로 경도, 무게와 색상 변화를 조사하였다. 15일간 저장 중 감모율은 저장기간이 증가함에 따라 증가하나 1.1% 정도에 머물러 단순히 감모율 인자로만 판단했을 때 토마토의 신선도 품질에 영향 끼치는 수준은 아니다. 색상변화 중 명도와 색조 각은 저장기간의 증가에 따라 감소하는 경향을, a/b와 ΔE는 증가하는 경향을 나타냈었고 일원분산분석결과를 볼 때 유의한 수준이었다(p<0.001). 경도는 저장기간이 증가함에 따라 감소하는 경향을 나타냈으며 저장 15일차에는 경도감소율이 40% 이상인 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 비 파괴방법으로 측정한 경도 값과 감모율 사이의 상관관계를 분석하여 선형회귀모델 WL=-0.0241×F+1.5213을 하였으며 모델의 추정치 오차는 ±0.231이었다. 이러한 결과에 비추어볼 때 수확 후 일정한 저장환경에서 비파괴적인 경도 측정을 통해 감모율을 추정하고 신선도를 판단하는 지표고 사용하는 것이 가능한 것으로 판단되었다.

The present study aimed to investigate the effects of low temperature on the growth, yield, quality, and biologically active compounds of strawberry and obtain basic information for developing a technology for stable growth of strawberry in greenhouses. Growth of strawberry, including leaf number, area, and length, plant height, and dry weight was better at the optimum growth temperature of 20℃ than at a lower temperature of 15°C. At the low temperature of 15°C, the cultivar 'Maehyang' was more tolerant and displayed better growth rate than 'Seolhyang'. At 15°C, the fruit production per week and fruit weight was lower than that at 20°C. In contrast, fruit length and diameter were not significantly different between the two growth temperatures. Growth temperature also did not affect the fruit color index, Hunter L, a, b value, or fruit firmness. However, the sugar content of strawberries grown at 15 was higher by 0.8 and 1.5 Brix for 'Seolhyang' and 'Maehyang', respectively, than of those grown at 20°C. There was no difference in the content of fisetin, a biologically active compound, for 'Seolhyang' at both growth temperatures, however, the fisetin content of 'Maehyang' was higher at 20°C than at 15 . Cinchonine and ellagic acid content of 'Seolhyang' was higher at 20°C than at 15 , whereas that of 'Maehyang' was higher at 15°C than at 20℃ . Quercetin content showed no significant differences with respect to growth temperature, however, it tended to increase at 20°C. The cinnamic acid content of 'Seolhyang' was higher at 15°C than at 20℃ , whereas that of 'Maehyang' increased at 20°C. Collectively, the biologically active compounds of strawberry were affected by growth temperature. Moreover, the content of these compounds tended to increase at 20°C, the optimum growth temperature, rather than at the sub-optimal growth temperature of 15°C.

Combustion of ethanol (EtOH) at low temperatures has been studied using titania- and silica-supported platinum nanocrystallites with different sizes in a wide range of 1~25 nm, to see if EtOH can be used as a clean, alternative fuel, i.e., one that does not emit sulfur oxides, fine particulates and nitrogen oxides, and if the combustion flue gas can be used for directly heating the interior of greenhouses. The results of H2-N2O titration on the supported Pt catalysts with no calcination indicate a metal dispersion of 0.97±0.1, corresponding to ca. 1.2 nm, while the calcination of 0.65% Pt/SiO2 at 600 and 900℃ gives the respective sizes of 13.7 and 24.6 nm when using X-ray diffraction technique, as expected. A comparison of EtOH combustion using Pt/TiO2 and Pt/SiO2 catalysts with the same metal content, dispersion and nanoparticle size discloses that the former is better at all temperatures up to 200℃, suggesting that some acid sites can play a role for the combustion. There is a noticeable difference in the combustion characteristics of EtOH at 80~200℃ between samples of 0.65% Pt/SiO2 consisting of different metal particle sizes; the catalyst with larger platinum nanoparticles shows higher intrinsic activity. Besides the formation of CO2, low-temperature combustion of EtOH can lead to many other pathways that generate undesired byproducts, such as formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, acetic acid, diethyl ether, and ethylene, depending strongly on the catalyst and reaction conditions. A 0.65% Pt/SiO2 catalyst with a Pt crystallite size of 24.6 nm shows stable performances in EtOH combustion at 120℃ even for 12 h, regardless of the space velocity allowed.

Activity of the noncontacted low temperature atmospheric pressure surface discharged plasma (LASDP) converts stable gas to ionized gas known as discharge or plasma. This ionized gas exhibits the antimicrobial activity. We examined the effects of 3 different storage treatments for 80 days on ‘Setoka’ : ambient storage (AS), low-tempperature storage (LTS), and low-temperature atmospheric pressure plasma+low-tempperature storage (PLTS). Total soluble solids showed no the significant differences between the 3 treatments. Acidity gradually decreased, and was 0.5% under AS after 30 days of storage. Fruit firmness increased by a few percent until 40 days of storage. Weight loss in AS was higher than for other treatments. After 80 days of storage, the decay ratio was significantly low in PLTS treatment: (AS, 50.5%; LTS, 5.6%; PLTS, 1.9%). In AS treatment, 73% of the rotten fruits were infected particularly with green and blue mold; however, only 1% of the rotten fruits were infected in case of PLTS treatment. In conclusion, LASDP treatment can pre

Omija-cheong, concentrated extracts from sugar-treated Omija fruit (Schisandra chinensis Baillon), is produced by traditional manner in Korea. The quality characteristics of Omija-cheong processed at low temperature with a pilot-scale were investigated to optimize the incubation time. With increasing incubation time in processing Omija-cheong, the pH level of Omija-cheong remained constant, while titratable acidity and organic acids increased. Fresh Omija fruits contained citric, malic and succinic acids, most of which were extracted into concentrated extracts after 37 days of incubation and reached to the stable concentration after 47 days of incubation. Titratable acidity in Omija-cheong gradually increased from 1.18% to 2.71%, and also was correlated with total concentration of organic acids. About 80% of supplemented sucrose for manufacturing Omija-cheong was converted into glucose and fructose until 68 days of incubation, and the composition of free sugars was maintained to be stable up to 138 days of incubation. The contents of total flavonoids and phenolic compounds in Omija-cheong were 24.1 mg-GAE/L and 1,635 mg-QE/L at 57 days of incubation, which were more than 9 and 5 times higher than those in Omija fruits, respectively. From the quality characteristics in processing Omija-cheong by low-temperature incubation, more than 60 days of incubation is required for the constant quality and value-added beverage.

This purpose of this study was to determine the best enrichment medium for rejuvenating and recovering Salmonella placed in cold temperature prior to the employment of the gold biosensor combined with a light microscopic imaging system. A mixture of nalidixic-resistant Salmonella Typhimurium and Enteritidis were inoculated onto chicken (1,000 CFU/chicken). After cold injury at 4℃ for 24 hr, Salmonella on chicken was enriched for 6 hr with six non-selective media including buffered peptone water broth, lactose broth, brain heart infusion broth (BHI), universal pre-enrichment broth, nutrient broth, and tryptic soy broth, and five selective media including brilliant green broth (BG), rappaport-vassiliadis R10 broth, selenite cystine broth, selenite broth, and tetrathionate brilliant green broth (TBG) for the comparison of Salmonella growth. Various concentrations of Salmonella (10, 50, 100, 500, and 1,000 CFU/chicken) were then enriched for 6 hr in both BHI and BG media to select the best media. BHI was selected as the most effective non-selective enrichment medium, while BG was selected as the most effective selective enrichment medium. Finally, BHI medium was selected as the most efficient enrichment medium for Salmonella growth injured from cold temperature during processing or storage.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of low temperature-adapted Saccharomyces cerevisiae Y297 and fermentation temperatures on the quality of Yakju brewed. Physicochemical properties of Yakju brewed were compared pH, total acidity, ethanol, free amino acid, organic acid contents, and volatile flavor compounds in S. cerevisiae Y297 with control treatment. Cooked non-glutinous rice and saccharogenic amylase in koji were mixed with ethanol-producing yeasts and then fermented at 15℃, 20℃, and 25℃ for 20 days. Yakju brewed using the Y297 treatment showed the highest ethanol yield (17.9%) at 20℃. Expression of heat shock protein (HSP) 104 was evaluated by immunoblotting as an indication of adaptation to low temperatures (15℃); levels of the HSP104 protein were higher in the Y297 treatment than in the control. Organic acid analysis showed that the lactic acid content of Yakju brewed using the control was the highest at 25℃. Finally, free amino acid analysis showed that the Y297 treatment had a higher proportion of essential amino acids than the control. Overall, these results indicate that S. cerevisiae Y297 could be used as a suitable yeast for Yakju brewed under low temperature (15℃) condition.

Background : Plants live in restricted spaces that are constantly exposed to various environmental stresses. Under these stressful conditions, plants lead to biosynthesize specialized metabolites to adapt to environmental stresses. Here we investigate the effects of cold on the metabolome of tartaty buckwheat, focusing the flavonoid biosynthetic pathway. Methods and Results : From the metabolic profiling based on the GC-TOF-MS analysis, we identified the effect of cold on forty-four metabolites, including sugars, amino acids, and organic acids. Most of sugars and sugar derivatives remain nearly unchanged or slightly decreased in the plants grown at 25 ºC, whereas sugar and sugar derivative contents of cold-treated plants significantly increased, excepting galactose. Some of amino acid and amino acid derivatives contents decrease in cold-treated plants, whereas organic acid derived from tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle were increased the cold-treated plants compared with the plants grown at 25 ºC. Particularly, the contents of two anthocyanins, cyanidin 3-O-glucoside and cyanidin 3-O-rutinoside, were significantly increased by cold treatment. Proanthocyanidins such as epicatechin and catechin were also significantly affected by cold. The expression of most flavonoid biosynthetic genes were significantly upregulated in cold-treated buckwheat seedling. Among the flavonoid biosynthetic genes, the expression of FtANS was notably upregulated in response to cold. Conclusion : By analyzing both primary metabolites and secondary metabolites of tartary buchwheat without or with cold, we showed that cold play a critical role in the modulation of the primary metabolites and flavonoid synthesis pathway in tartary buchwheat. Particularly, anthocyanin and proanthocyanidin biosynthetic pathways are strongly up-regulated in response to cold.

‘Jonathan’ apples are relatively small size which contributes to enhancing fruit consumption and gaining popularity. Thus, this study was carried out to evaluate the effects of AVG (aminoethoxyvinylglycine, ReTain®), sprayable 1-MCP (1-methylcyclopropene, HarvistaTM), and fumigation 1-MCP (SmartFreshTM) applications on fruit quality attributes and storability in ‘Jonathan’ apple fruits during cold-stored. The Jonathan fruits were dipped with either ReTain (75 mg/L) or Harvista (125 mg/L) solutions for 5 min, or fumigated with SmartFresh (1 mg/L) for 18 hr before storage at 0±1℃ for 75 days. Flesh firmness and titratable acidity remained higher in all pre-treated apples than control ones during cold storage period. Flesh firmness was higher for apples treated with ReTain and SmartFresh than samples treated with Harvista, while soluble solid content and respiration rate were not affected by sample pretreatment. Internal ethylene concentration (IEC) of all pretreated apples remained below about 4.5 μL/L during the entire storage period while that of control sample greatly increased to 10.29 μL/L. Ethylene production was much higher in control fruits than in treated ones during cold storage. These results indicated that ReTain and 1-MCP treatments would be considerably effective in retention of fruit quality attributes of ‘Jonathan’ apple during cold-stored.

Background: This study represents the first report that the anti-obesity activity of ethanol extracts of Aronia melanocarpa can be enhanced through ultrasonification at a frequency of 120 ㎑ at 60℃ (UE). Methods and Results: The amounts of cyanidin-3-O-galactose (cya-gal), a major anthocyanin in A. melanocarpa were higher by up to 402.4 ㎎/100 g, as compared with 221.4 ㎎/100 g and 322.1 ㎎/100 g, for hot water at 100℃ and 70% ethanol at 80℃ respectively. This result should cause the higher antioxidant activities of the UE than extract of hot water and ethanol in DPPH free radical scavenging. It was confirmed that the high antioxidant activity of UE could play an important role in inhibiting the production of proteins related to adipocyte differentiation, such as peroxisome proliferator activated receptor-γ (PPAR-γ) and sterol regulatory element binding protein 1 (SREBP1). Conclusions: Ultrasonification at a frequency of 120 ㎑ at 60℃ should result in better anti-obesity activity than that observed using other processes. It was also observed for the first time that the anti-obesity activity of A. melanocarpa was associated with its antioxidant activity, possibly due to the higher elution of intact cya-gal, owing to efficient low temperature ultrasonification extraction. These results could also be applied to improve other biological activities of medicinal herbs that contain many types of heat-labile bioactive substances.

Flower bud differentiation by temperature and photoperiod was investigated in early-, medium-, and late-maturing cultivars of radish (Raphanus sativus L.). Flower bud differentiation was induced by only day-length extension treatment (18 hr light/day) in early - and medium-maturing cultivars. Therefore, the early- and medium-maturing cultivars of radish were advanced the time of the flowering by the 2 weeks low temperature duration with day-length extension (18 hr light/day). The vegetative growth of early- and medium-maturing cultivar was the best by only day-length extension (18 hr light/day). However, late-maturing cultivar was needed for the flower bud differentiation and optimal vegetative growth not only long-day but also low temperature during 4~6 weeks at least. Our results suggest the optimal condition for flower bud differentiation in the each early-, medium-, and late-maturing cultivars of radish, which will be useful to develop breeding materials of radish.

The objectives of this study were to isolate and characterize low temperature adaptation yeast and to obtain suitable yeasts strains for manufacturing Yakju. In this study, we isolated 482 wild yeasts from fermented foods. Out of these, 5 yeast strains were selected based on increased growth at low temperature (15℃) and high β-glucosidase activity. To screen the aromatic level of isolates, media containing cerulenin and 5,5,5-trifluor-DL-leucine (TFL) were used. Y297 strain demonstrated tolerance against TFL and produced more than 13% alcohol. Y297 strain was identified a Saccharomyces cerevisiae based on the 26S rDNA gene sequences. Maximum cell growth was observed after 19 hr and 38 hr of incubation at 25℃ and 15℃, respectively. The exponential phase was followed by a lengthy stationary phase, at 15℃, when the cells remained high viable. Y297 strain demonstrated tolerance against alcohol (10%), glucose (60%) and salt(NaCl, 8%). β-glucosidase and esterase activity in Y297 were higher than those of controls at 15℃. Overall, these results indicated that using wild yeast strain, isolated from fermented food, affects the chemical characteristics of the brewed Yakju.

The efficacy of an experimentally designed cold chain container and a currently used styrofoam container was investigated with respect to important factors affecting the quality of fresh beef during storage under different conditions. The temperature in the TEPP-1 container was maintained at 5℃ using a phase change material (PCM) during transport and delivery. During storage in the TEPP-1 container, no significant difference was observed in pH of beef, but color decreased slightly, which does not affect the desire to purchase. After storage for 7 days, the rate of VBN and TBA in the TEPP-1 container, was lower than that in the TEPP-2 container. Drip loss was lower in the TEPP-1 container (0.87%) than in the TEPP-2 container (1.78%). No significant changes were observed in microbal count until 4 days in either of the containers, but after storage for 7 days, the count increased significantly. Microbial count in TEPP-1 was 6.65 log CFU/mL and that in TEPP-2 was 7.62 log CFU/mL. The results of sensory evaluations indicated that the overall acceptability of beef after storage for 7 days was better in the TEPP-1 container than in the TEPP-2 container. The EPS container was inferior in comparison with TEPP-1 and TEPP-2. It was impossible to continue the experiment using the EPS container after 3 days. These results suggest that the experimentally designed TEPP-1 container can be used for beef transport and delivery for 7 days without significantly affecting the quality of beef.

Background : Aruncus dioicus var. kamtschaticus, functional wild vegetable, is perennial herb and young leaves with soft texture are generally used as edible food. So the demand for the vegetable has increased recently. This study was carried out to determine the effects of temperature and shading on germination characteristics of A. dioicus. Methods and Results : The experiment was performed by temperature and shading treatments. Seed pre-treatment before the germination experiment was carried out by the storage in low temperature (4℃) under wet condition (LTW) for 0, 15, 30, 45 and 60 days and shading treatment were 35%, 50%, and 75% under control, BA (6-benzyladenine) and GA3 (gibberellic acid) condition for 24 hours. Increasing the length of the storage periods led to increases seed germination percent in low temperature (4℃) under wet condition (LTW), germination rate of A. dioicus seed was the highest at 15℃ with 60 days of seed pre-treatment. In the case of seeds pre-treatment with LTW, the more temperature went up, the more days to 50% of Germination of Final Germination Rate (T50) went down. As a result of surveying shading treatment, germination rate was the highest in control of 35% shading and the next higher was in control of 50% shading. Conclusions : It is concluded that the temperature and shading are important factors to produce A. dioicus. Also, We suggest these results as basic data of A. dioicus for sexual propagation.
