This study was conducted to test the fermenting of high quality vinegar using Wasabi japonica Matsum leaves. Alcohol fermentation with Wasabi japonica Matsum leaves resulted in the reduction of sugar and sugar alcohol content during fermentation, which decreased sharply over 3 days. The alcohol content was maximized (15.4%) after 8-days of alcohol fermentation at $27^{\circ}C$ by adjusting the initial sugar concentration to $27^{\circ}Brix$, and vinegar with an acidity of 5.1% was obtained after 21-days of acetic acid fermentation at $30^{\circ}C$. The pH was shown to be 3.5 after 21-days of acetic acid fermentation at $30^{\circ}C$. Regarding the color of Wasabi japonica Matsum leaves vinegar, the L and b values increased according to fermentation time, whereas a color values decreased. In conclusion, based on the above results, it is determined that the use of Wasabi japonica Matsum leaves allows for the production of high-quality vinegar.

In order to elucidate the relationship between the rainfastness of fungicides and their water solubilities, the fungicide residues on the leaf surface of hot pepper was assessed and compared after the drop-wise applications of fungicide solutions on leaf surface followed by artificial raining. As the raining was progressed after application of aqueous acetone solution of fungicides, the residue levels of fungicides were drop rapid at the early stage of raining, but the decreasing rates of residue level were slowed down thereafter. The initial rainfastness was reversely proportional to the water solubilities of the fungicides. Whole amount of dimethomorph residue, which water solubility is 18 mg/L, was washed off by 2.5 mm of raining. Although WP formulations of fungicides showed remarkable decreases of rainfastness compared to the aqueous acetone formulations, the fungicides having low water solubility showed better rainfastness. Chlorothalonil and mepanipyrim suspension concentrates was better in rainfastness than their WP formulation, and the rainfastness of mepanipyrim suspension was reversely proportional to the median diameter of suspension particles in the range of 1 to 4 ${\mu}m$. In brief, the rainfastness of 5 fungicides tested on the pepper leaf was, in the early stage of raining, closely related to water solubility. But, as the raining is progressed, the effect of the unknown factor, which is related with the particle size of fungicides, becomes serious.

Persistence of the triazole fungicides, bitertanol and tebucnazole was investigated after their application at recommended and double rate on greenhouse-grown peppers. The half-life of bitertanol and tebuconazole on peppers at recommended and double rate was $5.2{\sim}6.1$ and $4.6{\sim}5.2$ days, respectively. Half-lives of bitertanol and tebuconazole on pepper leaves $(16.8{\sim}22.5\;days)$ was longer than those in the peppers. Residual concentration of bitertanol and tebuconazole on pepper leaves 24 days after application were 10.1 and 17.5 mg/kg, respectively, and these levels were higher than MRL which had been established at 3.0 and 5.0 mg/kg in Korea. Pattern of dissipation was well fitted to the first-order kinetics. In household washing experiment with surfactant, dislodgeable portions on pepper leaves of bitertanol and tebuconazole were occupied 36% and 48% of the residues found 24 days after application.

The Oriental tobacco budworm, Heliothis assulta (Guenee), larvae usually feed on the hot-pepper fruits and young tobacco leaves or buds in Korea. This experiment was conducted t(} compare their attraction to their host plants including fruits of the sweet-pepper and solanum uk kwang, besides the other two mentioned above. First instar larvae were most attracted to the hot-pepper fruits. Flowers or leaves of the hot pepper plants were not attractive either. When the hot-pepper fruits were compared for attractancy, based on developmental stages, relatively mature fruits, just before ripening, were the most attractive. Their extract with or without 10% ethanol also gave similar result to 1st instar larvae or 2~4 instar larvae, suggesting a possibility that there is an attractant(s) in the hot-pepper fruits.

Temperature is one of the most important factors affecting crop growth. The diurnal cycle of the scale factor [Tsc] for air temperature and the surface temperature of crop leaf and soil could be estimated by the following equation : $[Tsc]=0.5{\times}sin(X+C)+0.5$. The daily air temperature (E[Ti]) according to the E&E time [X] can be estimated by following equation using average (Tavg), maximum (Tm) and minimum (Tn) temperature : $E[Ti]=Tn+(Tm-Tn){\times}[0.5{\times}sin\;\{X+(9.646Tavg+703.65)\}+0.5]$. The crop leaf temperature in 24th June 2014 was high as the order of red pepper without mulching > red pepper with mulching > soybean under drought > soybean with irrigation > Chinese cabbage. The case in estimating crop leaf surface temperature using air temperature and soil surface temperature was lower in the deviation compared to the case using air temperature for Chinese cabbage and red pepper. These results can be utilized for the crop models as input data with estimation.

Home-made broccoli Kochujang (HMBK) was prepared with the addition of 5% broccoli leaf powder. Its physicochemical and functional properties were measured in extracts (80% methanol, 80% ethanol, and distilled water) and compared with home-made Kochujang (HMK) and factory-produced Kochujang (FPK). Total phenolic content (TPC) was 22% higher in methanol extract from HMBK (524.2 GAE/100 g) compared to HMK (431.0 GAE/100 g). TPC was 8% higher in ethanol extract from HMBK (541.9 GAE/100 g) compared to HMK (499.9 GAE/100 g). DPPH radical scavenging activity was 1.6 times higher in the methanol extracts from HMBK than HMK. In contrast there was no difference in DPPH radical scavenging activity between HMBK and HMK. Oxygen radical absorbance capacities in methanol and ethanol extracts from HMBK were similar to HMK, but both were higher than extracts from FPK (55% and 23% higher, respectively). Inhibition of angiotensin I converting enzyme activity in methanol extracts from HMBK was similar to HMK, but it was 2.6 times higher than inhibition activities from FPK. Interestingly, only ethanol extract from HMBK showed a 10.7% and 18.3% inhibition on cell growth of the human colon adenocarcinoma grade II cell line (HT-29) and human lung carcinoma cell line (NCI-H1229), respectively. These results indicate home-made Kochujang with broccoli leaf powder contains high total phenolics, antioxidant activities, and cancer cell growth inhibition activities.
