This study was conducted in order to exam­ine relationships between the viviparous germination ability and the antioxidative system in rice seeds and seedlings. Enzyme activities was compared among the four varieties with different viviparous germination ability from the early or mid-late maturity group. $\alpha$-Amylase activities correlated with the viviparous germination rate (VGRs) and $\alpha$-amylase activity in seeds of 40 days after heading (DAH) was highest in Dongjinbyeo among mid­late maturing varieties (MLMVs) and in Daeseongbyeo among EMVs. $\alpha$-Amylase activity in dry mature seeds was also higher in varieties with higher VGR. Glucose contents in viviparously germinating seeds and mature dry, seeds were higher in varieties with higher VGRs. Cat-alase activities did not correlate with the VGRs in both maturity groups. However, peroxidase activities in viviparously germinating seeds were higher in varieties with higher VGRs.

Using the Socio-cultural Stress and Coping model, this study proposed a path model to explore how cultural values affect the physical health of Korean American caregivers through caregiver burden, receipt of informal social support and utilization of formal care services. For physical health outcomes, three physical health indicators were employed: self-reported global physical health, self-reported blood pressure, and salivary cortisol. The path model was analyzed by using a sample of 87 Korean caregivers living in Los Angeles County and Orange County, California, USA. The major findings of this study included the following: 1) Stronger belief in cultural values was associated with more frequent utilization of formal care services, leading to lower levels of systolic boold pressure; 2) Cultural values did not affect the physical health of Korean American caregivers through caregiver burden. The demonstration of positive effects of cultural values on the physical health of Korean America caregivers through social support utilization call attention to the need of further research on the understudied group providing family care to frail older family members.

Varietal differences on viviparous germination of newly released rice varieties were investigated to provide selection criteria for the high quality rice production. Laboratory and field tests were conducted on 20 different rice varieties in 2007. Varieties which showed below 10% of viviparous germination at the laboratory test were Odaebyo, Hitomebore, Koshihikari, Hwasungbyo, Hopyongbyo, Ilpumbyo, Chuchungbyo when they were treated 35 days after heading (DAH) at the temperature of 25/$15^{\circ}C$ (day/night) for 8 days, and were Hitomebore, Koshihikari, Hwasungbyo, Hopyongbyo under diurnal temperature of 30/$20^{\circ}C$ (day/night). At the field test with artificial lodging, there were 12 varieties including Hopyongbyo, Hitomebore that showed lower viviparous germination below 10% when they were treated at 35DAH and measured 8 days after lodging treatment but there was only four varieties (Ilpumbyo, Hwasungbyo, Chuchungbyo, Hopyongbyo) when lodging treatment was made at the 45DAH. Among newly released rice varieties, viviparous germination rate of Hopyongbyo was below 10% and was 11 to 20% at Hithomebore and Samgwangbyo, 21 to 40% at Koshihikari, Odae-No.1, Josaengheukchalbyo, Chonghobyo, 41 and 60% at Suean-No.1, Whongwangbyo, Bosukchalbyo, and 61 to 90% at Gopumbyo when it was examined 8 days after lodging treatment at 45DAH.

This study aimed to examine the changes in the health status, social network and satisfaction of caregivers as a result of caregiving using a structural equation model. As a result, it was found that caregiving increased the level of depression and decreased the subjective health status in both men and women. The social network and satisfaction were found to differ according to gender. For the women caregivers, caregiving affected their subjective health status and depression. In the case of the men caregivers, the total effect of caregiving on their subjective health was 1.087(p<.05), while the indirect effect was 0.546(p<.05). Also, caregiving affected the subjective health status of the male caregivers through the functional family network as a mediating factor(0.42, p<.01). The results suggest the necessity to take these gender differences into consideration when discussing the health of caregivers. Also, the functional family network needs to be strengthened to prevent the deterioration of the health status of male caregivers.

Seed dormancy is an adaptive trait in which seeds do not germinate under unfavorable environmental conditions. Low dormancy seeds are easily germinated under optimal environmental conditions, and these characteristics greatly reduce the yield and quality of crops. In the present study, we compared the pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) rate of two cultivars, Joun and Jopyeong, using the Winkler scale after heading day and temperature of the test. The PHS rate increased as the Winkler scale after heading day increased from 700℃ to 1100℃ and the temperature of the test increased. In all conditions, the PHS rate of Jopyeong was higher than that of Joun. RNA-sequencing was used to analyze the cause of the high PHS rate. We analyzed the biological metabolic processes related to the abscisic acid (ABA) metabolite pathway using the KEGG mapper with selected differentially expressed genes in PHS seeds. We found that the expression of ABA biosynthesis genes (OsNCEDs) was down-regulated and that ABA catabolic genes (OsCYP707As) was up-regulated in PHS seeds. However, the quantitative real-time PCR results showed that Joun had a higher expression of OsNCEDs than that of Jopyeong, but OsCYP707As did not yield a significant result. Joun displayed higher ABA content than that of Jopyeong not only during ripeness time but also during PHS treatment. Taken together, we provided evidence that the ABA content remaining in the seed is important to the PHS rate, which is determined by the expression level of the ABA biosynthesis gene OsNCEDs.

This study was conducted to investigate varietal difference in viviparous germinability at different days after heading and temperature conditions. Three Japonica rice varieties, Sobaekbyeo, Odaebyeo and Hwaseongbyeo, and Sare type rice variety, Jakwangdo, showed higher viviparous germination rate from 20 days after heading, while a Tongil type rice, ]ungwonbyeo, and a Indica varieyt, IR-20, showed still low viviparous germination at 40 days after heading. Viviparous germination rate of rice varieties observed at 4 and 10 days after incubation was greately increased with increasing temperature from 15$^{\circ}C$ to 3$0^{\circ}C$ , and germination rate less than 5% was observed at 4 days after incubating at 15$^{\circ}C$ in all rice varieties teased. Viviparous germination pattern of rice varieties was divided into two types. Three Japonica and Sare type rice varieties showed higher and faster in viviparous germination than a Tongil type and Indica rice verieties. Viviparous germination was delayed under day /night fluctuation of incubation temperature compared with day /night fluctuation of incubation temperature compared with day /night constant condition at the same average temperature. The optimum incubation temperature and duration to evaluate viviparous germinability of rice varieties were 25/15$^{\circ}C$ and 6 days, respectively.

This experiment was conducted to find out the factors governing the viviparous germination of In. $\times$ Ja. type rice varieties. Six varieties, i.e., Milyang 21, Raekyeong, Milyang 30, Yeongnamjosaeng, Nopoong and Mansuk, were used for this experiment. The viviparous germination easily occurred between 40 to 45 days after heading, and was easier in yellow-ripe stage or full-ripe stage than dough-ripe stage. The use of exceeding fertilization induced more viviparous germination than ordinary one. The early varieties such as Yeongnam-josaeng and Milyang 21, easily occurred the viviparous germination. The local conditions of viviparous germination were usually poorly drained soils and narrow alluvial valleys where were high humidity prevailed.

Rice flour varieties have been developed to replace wheat, and consumption of rice flour has been encouraged. damage related to pre-harvest sprouting was occurring due to a weather disaster during the ripening period. Thus, it is necessary to develop pre-harvest sprouting rate prediction system to minimize damage for pre-harvest sprouting. Rice cultivation experiments from 20 17 to 20 19 were conducted with three rice flour varieties at six regions in Gangwon-do, Chungcheongbuk-do, and Gyeongsangbuk-do. Survey components were the heading date and pre-harvest sprouting at the harvest date. The weather data were collected daily mean temperature, relative humidity, and rainfall using Automated Synoptic Observing System (ASOS) with the same region name. Gradient Boosting Machine (GBM) which is a machine learning model, was used to predict the pre-harvest sprouting rate, and the training input variables were mean temperature, relative humidity, and total rainfall. Also, the experiment for the period from days after the heading date (DAH) to the subsequent period (DA2H) was conducted to establish the period related to pre-harvest sprouting. The data were divided into training-set and vali-set for calibration of period related to pre-harvest sprouting, and test-set for validation. The result for training-set and vali-set showed the highest score for a period of 22 DAH and 24 DA2H. The result for test-set tended to overpredict pre-harvest sprouting rate on a section smaller than 3.0 %. However, the result showed a high prediction performance (R2=0.76). Therefore, it is expected that the pre-harvest sprouting rate could be able to easily predict with weather components for a specific period using machine learning.
