This study was conducted to investigate the effects of modified drum priming and 24-Epibrassinolide (24-EBL) treatment to improve the seed quality for export. 40, 50 and 60% seed moisture content (SMC) of hydrated seeds were incubated for 16 and 24 h in a container with a relative humidity of 99% at 26 rpm for a modified drum priming treatment. The treated seeds were sown at $20^{\circ}C$ and $30^{\circ}C$ (12/12h, light/dark) with four replications of 25 seeds on pleated paper. The seeds were hydrated with water or 24-EBL solutions of $10^{-7}$, $10^{-8}$ and $10^{-9}M$, respectively. The germination of the modified drum primed seeds (24 h incubation after 60% SMC hydration) improved to 1.6 days mean germination time (MGT) and $46%{\cdot}day^{-1}$ germination rate (GR), while the untreated seeds showed 2.1 days MGT and $28%{\cdot}day^{-1}$ GR. The modified drum priming (60% SMC and 24 h incubation with $10^{-9}M$ 24-EBL) showed improved results in MGT (1.8 days) and GR (55%) at $20^{\circ}C$, whereas untreated seeds showed 2.3 days MGT and 44% GR. Under $30^{\circ}C$, germination of modified drum primed seeds was significantly improved in GP (80%), GR ($31%{\cdot}day^{-1}$), HS (55%) and MGT (3.3 days), however, untreated seeds showed decreased GP (27%), GR ($22%{\cdot}day^{-1}$), HS (55%) and MGT (4.8 days). This study showed that the germination of lettuce seeds is enhanced by 24 h drum incubation with 24-EBL and this method can be used effectively to achieve the benefits of early germination and uniform seedling development. In addition, these treatments circumvent thermo-dormancy of lettuce seed and have a possibility of high-quality and environment-friendly seed processing.

This study was conducted to determine the effects of seed storage methods ($-20^{\circ}C$, stratification, $2^{\circ}C$ dry, $2^{\circ}C$ wet and room temperature) and $GA_3$ application (control, $dH_2O$, 10, 100, 1000 ppm) on seed germination and seedling growth of S. lyratum. As a result seed germination rate of S. lyratum was the highest at 91% when seeds were stored at room temperature and then soaked for 24 hours in $GA_3$ 10 ppm. And seedlings of S. lyratum showed the best quality when seed were stored at $2^{\circ}C$ dry and then soaked for 24 hours in $GA_3$ 1000 ppm, with the growth characteristics of plant height (47 mm), number of leaves (8), leaf width (12 mm), leaf length (19 mm), fresh weight (aerial/root part; 471/476 mg), dry weight (aerial/root; 106/41 mg) and seedling quality indices (106). Therefore, S. lyratum seed were stored at $2^{\circ}C$ dry, and then soaked for 24 hours in $GA_3$ 1000 ppm, seed germination rate was more than 80% and production of superior quality container seedlings.

The $100\%$ of insect pests on the imported logs and Sitophilus oryzae(L.) will be killed both when the imported logs are fumigated on shipboard with 25g methyl $bromide/m^3$ for 24hours at $10\~20^{\circ}C$ and when they are fumigated on shipboard with 37.5g methyl $bromide/m^3$ caculated by DT products for 16 hours at $10\~20^{\circ}C$ using 2 fans of 1800rpm over and ID 30cm. Without using fans, it takes $4\~6$ hours to make gas concentration even in hold. But using 2 fans per hold, the period reduces to $1\~3$ hours.

From immature seed of Phaseolus vulgaris L., a novel phytosteryl glucoside was isolated. Strong ion peaks at m/z 613 $[M+Na}^{+},\;696\;[M+Matrix]^{+}$ in positive F AB- MS and at m/z 589 $[M-1]^{-}$ in negative F AB- MS indicated the molecular weight of the compound is 590. Four hundred MHz $^IH-NMR$ analysis revealed that the compound canys a 24-hydroxy-24-vinyl-cholesterol (saringosterol) as an aglycone and a ${\beta}-D-glucopyranose$. Four hundred MHz $^IH-NMR$ analysis of the acetate derivate of the compound revealed that hydroxyls at C-1' in glucose moeity and at C-3 in aglycone have been condensed. Therefore, the phytosteryl glucoside was characterized to be $3-0-{\beta}-D-glucopyranosyl-24-hydroxy-24-vinyl-cholesterol$ (saringosteryl glucoside). This is the first demonstration for the presence of saringosterol in higher plants. Also this is the first identification of saringosteryl glucoside in natural materials.erials.

Potato virus X (PVX) resistance in potato is one of the best-characterized resistance models, however little is known in pepper. To evaluate the resistance to PVX in Capsicum annuum, a total of eleven pepper accessions were used for resistance screening against two PVX strains, USA and UK3. None of them were resistant against strain UK3, whereas four resistant genotypes were found against strain USA, three of which were further characterized. Two unlinked dominant genes were identified for both genotypes Bukang and Perennial; resistance in the genotype CV3 seemed to be conferred by two complementary dominant genes. These results demonstrated that the resistance to PVX in C. annuum is different from that in potato. This is the first report on genetic analysis of PVX resistance in C. annuum.

Effects of temperature, soil moisture level, flooding, and soil microflora on decay of root galls in club root disease of Chinese cabbage were examined in the laboratory. Number of days required for complete decay of root galls was 3 days at $32^{\circ}C$ or higher, 12 days at $16{\sim}20^{\circ}C$ and 28 days at $8^{\circ}C$. As soil moisture content goes up, root gall decay became faster resulting 3 days for complete decay under saturated moisture condition at high temperature of $32^{\circ}C$, and 8 days under the same moisture level at $24^{\circ}C$. Soil moisture effect was relatively low at $24^{\circ}C$ compared to $32^{\circ}C$. Stimulation of decay by soil flooding was not observed at $32^{\circ}C$ but became apparent at $12^{\circ}C$. Influence of soil microflora on root gall decay was negligiable. Based on these results, temperature appears to be the most important factor affecting root gall decay in soil. Root gall decay is thought to be affected more easily by other environmental factors under low temperature conditions. Maturity of resting spores of Plasmodioprora brassicae in root galls tended to increase as time prolongs during root gall decay. Density of the resting spores was lower in fresh root galls where their maturity was also low as compared to completely decayed root galls. Number of resting spores in completely decayed root gall was $6.5{\times}10^{6}/g$ tissue and its maturity was over 95%.

This experiment was conducted to improve germination rate of the seed treated duration of storage and $GA_3$ in Celosia argentea. With the seed directly after harvest, as increasing concentration of $GA_3$, ranged from 50ppm to 200ppm, and dipping hour, ranged from 6 to 24 hour, the rate of germination was also increased. The germination of seed dipping in 200ppm $GA_3$ for 24 hours was the highest with $52\%$ compared to the control with $12\%$. As increasing storage duration in $22{\pm}2^{\circ}C$, ranged from 2 weeks to 12 weeks, the rate of germination was also increased showing $84\%$ at 12 week. However, the rate of germination was not increased with the storage of $5^{\circ}C,\;0^{\circ}C,\;and\;-70^{\circ}C$. With the seed storage 16 weeks in $22{\pm}2^{\circ}C$ after harvest, the rate of germination was $84\%$. The rate of germination was increased $94\%\;to\;99\%$ by the $GA_3$ concentration, ranged from 50ppm to 400ppm, and dipping hour, ranged from 6 to 24 hour. The germination was finished 4 days after sowing.

The volatile flavor components were isolated from the roots of Saussurea lappa C.B. Clarke produced in Korea and China by the hydro distillation, and were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS). 63 aroma compounds representing 87.47% of the total peak area were tentatively identified, including 13 alcohols (22.56%), 26 hydrocarbons (21.78%), 4 aldehydes (21.24%), 11 ketones (18.04%), 1 oxide (0.52%), 3 esters (0.16%), 1 carboxylic acid (0.02%) and 4 miscellaneous components (3.15%). 46 volatile flavor components of imported S. lappa C.B. Clarke constituted 65.69% of the total volatile composition were tentatively characterized, consisting of 1 aldehyde (23.32%), 24 hydrocarbons (16.69%), 10 ketones (15.84%), 7 alcohols (8.92%), 1 oxide (0.83%), 2 esters (0.07%) and 1 acid (0.02%). The predominant components of both essential oils were (7Z,10Z,13Z)-7,10,13-hexadecatrienal and dehydrocostuslactone.

To examine the relationship between plant hormones and the development of pepper anthracnose, we investigated the effects of several plant hormones on the progression of disease symptoms. Of the five plant hormones examined, abscisic acid (ABA) increased the lesion length and disease incidence on detached fruits of Capsicum annuum cv. Nokkwang. The simultaneous application of ABA with inoculation of Colletotrichum acutatum JC24 resulted in increased lesion length, depending the concentration of ABA applied. Additionally, application of ABA caused the development of pepper anthracnose in fruits of Capsicum baccatum cvs. PBC80 and PBC81, which were previously resistant to the disease. Furthermore, ABA administration rendered increased pathogenicity of other isolates of C. acutatum BAC02063, PECH10, and TCBNU3 obtained from the Chinese matrimony vine, peach, and tea tree, respectively. Our data suggest that exogenous ABA may result in the suppression of defense mechanisms of pepper fruits against anthracnose, which leads to a change in the susceptibility of pepper fruits and the development of pepper anthracnose.

Ripe rot was frequently observed on fruits, leaves and stems of grape growing in eight locations in Korea from 2004 to 2006. All 30 isolates of Colletotrichum sp. were obtained from lesions of the ripe rot on grape plants. Out of the isolates, 19 isolates were identified as Colletotrichum acutatum and the others as Colletotrichum gloeosporioides based on morphological and cultural characteristics. Inter and intra specific variations of the Colletotrichum spp. isolates were investigated using RAPD and sequences of rDNA ITS and $\beta$-tubulin-2. Isolates of C. acutatum and C. gloeosporioides were distinctly differentiated by molecular analyses. Phylogenetic trees of ITS and$\beta$-tubulin-2 showed that Korean isolates of C. acutatum were clustered into groups A2 and A3 among the eight global groups. A2 included non-chromogenic isolates and A3 chromogenic ones. Both C. acutatum and C. gloeosporioides isolates were tested for pathogenicity to grape leaves. All isolates tested induced lesions on the leaves of grape by artificial inoculation. There was no difference in pathogenicity between C. acutatum and C. gloeosporioides isolates. This is the first report that C. acutatum except C. gloeosporioides causes grape ripe rot in Korea.
