A new oak mushroom cultivar ‘K815’ was bred from monokaryotic strains of ‘Jadam-2’ and ‘LE191732-118’. The optimal temperature for mycelial growth of ‘K815’ was 25oC, and the temperature for primordia formation and fruiting body development was 15~20oC. The fruiting body morphology is hemispherical and the fruiting form is sporadic. Total cultivation period of the new cultivar, from inoculation to its first harvest, was 133 days, which was 3 days longer than control cultivar ‘Jadam’ (129 days), with 32 days for spawn running, 89 days for browning, 4 days for primordia formation, and 8 days for fruiting body development. In the fruiting body, the thickness and diameter of pileus of the new cultivar were 32.2 mm and 58.3mm, respectively, and the length of stipe was 35.6 mm. Compared to the control cultivar ('Jadam', 'L808'), the pileus of the new cultivar was thicker and smaller and the length of stipe was shorter. The total number of fruiting bodies of ‘K815’ was 58.9, which was higher than the control varieties and total yield of 2 crop cycle of ‘K815’ was 580 g (per 3 kg substrate), which was similar to the control variety.

In this study, the biogeochemistry management (BGC-MAN) model was applied to North and South Korea pine and oak forest stands to evaluate the Net Primary Productivity (NPP), an indicator of forest ecosystem productivity. For meteorological information, historical records and East Asian climate scenario data of Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs) were used. For vegetation information, pine (Pinus densiflora) and oak (Quercus spp.) forest stands were selected at the Gwangneung and Seolmacheon in South Korea and Sariwon, Sohung, Haeju, Jongju, and Wonsan, which are known to have tree nurseries in North Korea. Among the biophysical information, we used the elevation model for topographic data such as longitude, altitude, and slope direction, and the global soil database for soil data. For management factors, we considered the destruction of forests in North and South Korea due to the Korean War in 1950 and the subsequent reforestation process. The overall mean value of simulated NPP from 1991 to 2100 was 5.17 Mg C ha-1, with a range of 3.30-8.19 Mg C ha-1. In addition, increased variability in climate scenarios resulted in variations in forest productivity, with a notable decline in the growth of pine forests. The applicability of the BGC-MAN model to the Korean Peninsula was examined at a time when the ecosystem process-based models were becoming increasingly important due to climate change. In this study, the data on the effects of climate change disturbances on forest ecosystems that was analyzed was limited; therefore, future modeling methods should be improved to simulate more precise ecosystem changes across the Korean Peninsula through processbased models.

본 연구는 주요 참나무류 수종인 신갈나무, 굴참나무, 상수리나무의 임분밀도와 생장과의 관계를 파악하고 수종 간 비교를 통해 생장 유사성 여부를 판별하여 임분밀도관리도 개발 시 주요 참나무류의 생장 예측 모형개발의 방향성을 제시하기 위해 실시하였다. 제7차 국가산림자원조사의 신갈나무, 굴참나무, 상수리나무 우점림과 참나무류 혼효림의 임분생육 자료를 기반으로 수종별 경쟁-밀도효과 곡선을 산출하고 수종 간 교차 적용 후 차우검정(Chow test)을 통해 생장 유사성을 평가하였다. 수종별 경쟁-밀도효과 곡선은 ha당 1,000본에서 평균 재적이 급격히 감소하는 경향을 보이는 역 J자형을 나타내었다. 생장 유사성 평가 결과, 상수리나무와 굴참나무는 유사한 생장 패턴을 보였지만 신갈나무는 상수리나무 및 굴참나무와 생장 패턴에 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 참나무류 혼효림은 굴참나무를 제외한 다른 수종들과 유사한 생장 패턴을 나타내었다.

To optimize initial cooling conditions, forced-air cooling was applied to freshly harvested oak mushrooms at 2 levels (0oC for 30 minutes, at 0oC for 1 hour) followed by room cooling at 3 levels (-3oC for 1 day, 0oC for 1 day, 3oC for 1 day). After initial cooling, the oak mushrooms were packaged with PVC film, then held in a storage room at 1oC for 6 weeks. Quality characteristics and percentage marketability were then investigated. As a control, Mushrooms were placed in storage with no initial cooling. The quality factors impacting marketability of fresh oak mushrooms were color change and appearance of decay. Off-odor did not occur or developed only slightly, so it did not affect oak mushroom quality within 6 weeks of low temperature storage. In all treatment groups, the shelf life in which 100% marketability was maintained was up to 3 weeks. At week 5, percent marketability of the 3 treatment groups 1 hour room cooling treatment at 0°C, 1 hour forced air cooling, and control was 100%. 80% In the group that underwent 30 min forced air cooling retained 80% marketability, and the group exposed to 1 day in room cooling at -3oC retained 86.7% marketability. At week 6 of 1oC storage, the marketability ratio was 80% in the 1 day room cooling at 0oC group, 66.7% in the 1 day room cooling at 3oC group, 46.7% in the 1 hour forced air cooling group, and 33% or less in all other treatment groups. Therefore, the most suitable initial cooling parameter to extend shelf-life of oak mushrooms is 1 day of in room cooling at 0oC immediately after harvest.

In order to provide basic data for preparing management standards and to verify the safety of the Chinese oak mushroom-derived moisturizing medium—which is synthesized and imported in large quantities—the presence of 321 residual pesticides, 7 heavy metals, and 3 radioactive materials was analyzed in the moisturizer samples. Examination of residual pesticides in seven moisturizing medium samples prepared using the Chinese oak mushroom and three domestic sawdust samples used for mushroom culture revealed the presence of cypermethrin and iprodione in three moisturizer samples, but the contents of these pesticides were below the standard limits. Zn was detected in ten samples, Cu was detected in nine samples, and Ni was detected in four samples, but their contents were below the standard limits. Pb, Cd, Cr, and Hg were not detected in any sample. No radioactive materials were detected in the samples. In addition, fruiting bodies of the oak mushroom were observed in each medium. Examination did not reveal the presence of any residual pesticides or harmful compounds. In this study, the use of the moisturizing medium prepared using the Chinese oak mushroom was found to be safe. As residual pesticides, heavy metals, and radioactivity—even in trace amounts—remain concentrated in the human body, continuous verification of the safety of hazardous substances and pollutants during the systematic cultivation and management of these mushrooms is required.

The present study investigated the effect of global warming on germination and initial growth across six deciduous oak species (Quercus mongolica, Q. variabilis, Q. serrata, Q. dentata, Q. aliena, and Q. acutissima), which are the dominant tree species in Korea forest ecosystems. Seeds were sown in climate change treatments, with temperatures higher than those of the control (approximately 3.0°C higher), and CO2 concentrations higher than those of the control (approximately 2-fold higher). Initial growth in each species was measured every two weeks. Initial growth was more rapid in all oak species at the time of root and shoot emergence under high temperature and CO2 treatments than in the control group. Leaf emergence in Q. mongolica, Q. variabilis, and Q. serrata occurred earlier under the climate change treatments than under the control. Root length increased significantly in Q. mongolica, Q. variabilis, and Q. dentata under the climate change treatments when compared to under the control. However, Q. aliena and Q. serrata exhibited a contrasting trends, and no significant difference was observed between the species and Q. acutissima. Shoot length increased significantly in Q. aliena under climate change treatments when compared to under the control but decreased in Q. aliena. In addition, no significant difference was observed in shoot length among Q. mongolica, Q. dentata, and Q. acutissima. The results showed that climate change treatments facilitated early growth, rapid emergence from the ground, leaf development, and enhanced belowground growth in Q. mongolica. Conversely, Q. aliena exhibited the lowest aboveground and belowground growth under climate change treatments when compared to other oak species. Climate change treatments had the least impact on Q. acutissima considering the insignificant differences observed in initial growth rates under climate change treatment.

표고 재배사내 진균류의 발생특성을 분석하기 위해 골목에서 발생한 진균류를 분리·동정하고 재배사내 온·습도 환경을 분석하였다. 표고골목에서 발생한 진균을 분석한 결과 Cladosporium sp., C. cladosporioides, C. anthropophilum, Pleosporales sp., Trichoderma harzianum, Acremonium sp. 6종으로 확인되었다. 재배사내 환경을 조사한 결과는 5월 1일부터 10월 12일 사이에 재배사내 최고·저 온도가 14.0~30.1oC, 평균습도는 82.8%으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 표고 재배과정 중 진균류의 발생이 활발한 초여름부터 가을철 사이에 철저한 재배관리가 중요하며, 한번 발병한 진균류는 연중 재배사내 생존이 가능하기 때문에 주기적으로 모니터링하여 사전에 유해 진균류 발생에 유리한 생육환경을 예방해야 한다.

This study was conducted in order to investigate the quality characteristics of MBA wine resulting from treatment with different oak barrel maturation methods. This study focused on the maturation of wine in five different types of barrels, including a stainless-steel maturation barrel, a foreign medium-toasted oak barrel, and domestic light, medium and heavy toasted oak barrels, and looked at the resulting differences in quality characteristics between the wines. All oak barrels used for this study had a capacity of 100 liters. The results of the study revealed that the pH content increased by up to 3.86~3.93% after 9 months, and then decreased after this point. The total anthocyanin content increased up to 152.52~174.95 mg/L during a 6 month maturation period, and thereafter began decreasing in concentration, with overall anthocyanin levels tending to be higher after maturation in foreign oak barrels. Overall, functional elements tended to measure higher after maturation in foreign oak barrels as opposed to maturation in domestic oak barrels. Therefore, these results indicate that it is necessary to improve the production of domestic oak barrels in the future in order to reliably produce wines with higher levels of functional elements.

The most important thing to successfully restore an oak forest is finding suitable climatic conditions and topographic factors for the oak species to be introduced. In this study, in order to find suitable environmental conditions for the five dominant oak trees on the Korean Peninsula, we carried out analysing the information on the location of forest vegetation on the Korean Peninsula. The range of annual mean temperature of the five oak trees was narrow in the order of Q. mongolica (7.7~14.3°C), Q. variabilis (9.2~13.8°C), Q. acutissima (10.5~14.3°C), Q. serrata (11.4~13.7°C), Q. aliena (11.0~12.9°C). The range of annual precipitation of oaks was narrow in order of Q. mongolica (1072.7~1780.9 mm), Q. variablis (1066.6~1554.9 mm), Q. acustissima (1036.5~1504.8 mm), Q. serrata (1062.6~1504.7 mm). The range of altitude was in order of Q. mongolica (147~1388 m), Q. serrata (93~950 m), Q. variabilis (90~913 m), Q. acustissima (60~516 m), Q. aliena (55~465 m). The range of slope was in the order of Q. mongolica (8~56°), Q. variabilis (5~52°), Q. serrata (11~45°), Q. aliena (15~38°), Q. acustissima (16~37°). These results are considered to be very useful in the case of ecological restoration using deciduous oak trees on the Korean Peninsula.

The evergreen oak tree, Quercus myrsinaefolia Blume, is not only economically important for wood, medicine, landscape trees, etc., but also becoming more important in terms of ecology due to climate change. However, asexual reproduction was difficult, so this study was conducted to establish the optimum conditions for micropropagation by shoot multiplication. The surface sterilized seeds of Q. myrsinaefolia were successfully germinated in WPM basal medium. BAP (1.0 mg/L) treatment was most effective for inducing multiple shoots. The highest induction rates of adventitious roots from the multiple shoots was shown in the treatment of 1.0 mg/L NAA. Both MS and WPM medium were most effective for growth of multiplied plantlets. For ex vitro acclimatization, the survival rates of multiplied plantlets were 100% in vermiculite and commercial soil. The results of this study can be used for proliferation and supply, and establishment of ex situ conservation of Q. myrsinaefolia elite trees.

본 연구는 참나무류 6수종의 임분 시업체계 확립을 위해 수종별 지위지수 곡선을 추정하였다. 대상수종은 갈참나무, 굴참나무, 떡갈나무, 상수리나 무, 신갈나무, 졸참나무이며, 지위지수 추정은 Chapman-Richards model을 이용하였다. 추정 결과, 수종별 모델의 적합도 지수는 약 35~45%의 범위로 나타났고, 평균오차제곱은 전체 수종이 1.755~2.792의 범위로 분석되었다. 연년생장량의 최고값은 8~15년으로 나타났고, 총평균생장량 최고값은 14~24년에 도달하는 것으로 분석되었다. 수종별 지위지수 분포 범위는 떡갈나무가 지위지수 8~14, 신갈나무 6~16, 상수리나무는 10~18까 지 분포하였고, 갈참나무와 굴참나무, 졸참나무는 지위지수 8~16의 범위로 나타났다. 추정된 지위지수 분류곡선은 참나무류의 임분 조성 및 육성 기술 체계화 연구에 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

본 연구는 기온상승 강도에 따른 우리나라 주요 참나 무류의 종자 발아와 초기생장에 미치는 영향을 파악하기 위해 수행되었다. 신갈나무와 졸참나무를 대상으로 온도구배온실을 이용하여 대조구, 중간 강도 온난화 처리구 (+1.7℃) 및 강한 강도 온난화 처리구 (+3.2℃)를 준비하여 재배실험을 실시하였다. 그 결과, 발아반응과 초기생장 반응은 기온상승 강도 및 수종에 따라 차이를 보였다. 중간 강도의 온난화 환경은 두 종의 발아반응을 촉진하고, 생장량 (묘고, 근원경)과 생물량 (잎, 줄기, 뿌리의 건중량 및 총 생물량)을 증가시켜, 초기정착에 다소 유리할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 그러나 Tm에서 두 종 모두 대조구보다 낮은 RMR과 높은 H/D율을 나타내, 장기적으로는 생장에 불리하게 작용할 수 있을 것임을 암시한다. 강한 강도의 온난화 환경은 신갈나무와 졸참나무의 발아반응을 촉진 시켰으나, 생육기간 종료 시점의 총 생물량은 대조구보다 유의하게 낮았다. 뿌리 생장은 대조구보다 크게 저하되었고, 이로 인하여 RMR은 낮고 S/R율은 높게 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 강한 강도의 온난한 환경이 봄철에는 발아시 기를 앞당겨 생장기간을 증가시켰지만, 여름철에는 임계치 이상의 높은 온도가 생장에 스트레스요인으로 작용하는데 기인한 것으로 판단된다. 식물의 생장은 온난화 처리기간, 토양수분, 광환경 등의 환경요인에 따라 다를 수 있으므로, 온난화에 의한 영향을 정확하게 판단하기 위해서는 다른 환경인자에 대한 모니터링과 장기간에 걸친 추가 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단되었다. 기온상승에 대한 두 식물의 반응을 비교하면, 발아 반응에서 졸참나무가 신갈나무보다 기온상승에 따른 발아율 상승이 높게 반응하였고, 생물량 분배반응에서 신갈나무가 졸참나무보다 민감하게 반응하는 차이를 보였다. 이는 자연에서 양식물의 공간 분포가 가져오는 미기후 차이에서 비롯된 것으로 판단된다.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of attractant mixture on capture efficacy on Platypus koryoensis, an insect vector of oak wilt disease in Korea. We compared three treatments, such as Citral:EtOH(5:95), EtOH, and no attractant. In order to compare the attractants, Lindgren multi-funnel traps were installed in three oak forests in the Incheon Grand Park. A total of 18 traps was installed, and traps were replaced biweekly. A total of 236, 85, and 25 individuals were collected in Citral:EtOH, EtOH, and control, respectively. Although a mixture of Citral:EtOH seems more effective in attracting P. koryoensis, number of individuals of P. koryoensis caught by attractants was different according to study sites.

기후 변화에 따른 표고 재배사내 온도와 습도의 변화추이를 알아보기 위하여 5년 동안 봄, 여름, 가을 기간에 걸쳐 국내 49곳의 표고버섯 재배사에서 온도와 습도를 측정 분석하였다. 톱밥배지 재배사의 5년간 평균 온도와 습도는 24.7℃와 60.5%이었다. 원목 재배사의 5년간 평균 온도는 24.4℃, 평균 습도는 60.0%로 나타났다. 여름철 기간 중 온도 평균은 원목재배사의 경우는 2016년 29.8℃, 2017년 29.1℃, 2018년 33.3℃이었으며 톱밥배지 재배사의 경우는 2016년 26.8℃, 2017년 20.4℃, 2018년 24.2℃이었다. 조사 기간 중 30℃가 넘는 고온으로 측정된 재배사는 봄철에 1곳, 여름철에 5곳이었으며 원목 재배사가 5곳을 차지하였다. 원목재배에서 온도가 20℃를 넘지 않는 재배사는 4곳으로 모두 가을에 조사된 온도였다. 본 연구 조사는 기후변화에 대비해 표고 재배사의 경우 원목 재배사 관리에 우선적으로 대비해야 함을 시사하였다.
