One hundred Capsicum accessions were screened for symptomatic response and resistance to Tomato spotted wilt virus-pb1 (TSWV-pb1). Symptom and its severity rating were checked by visual observation at 9, 12, 14, and 45 days after inoculation, respectively. Enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay was performed all tested individuals on non-inoculated upper leaves after the third rating to indentify viral infection. Leaf curling was predominant in almost susceptible individuals of each accession. Stem necrosis was most frequent in wild species while yellowing in commercial hybrids and Korean land race cultivars. Ring spot, a typical symptom of TSWV, was rarely detected in some of a few accessions. Different levels of resistance to TSWV-pb1 were observed among the tested accessions. High level of resistance was detected in 4 commercial cultivars of Kpc-35, -36, -57, and -62, and 8 wild species of PBI-11, C00105, PBC076, PBC280, PBC426, PBC495, PBC537, and PI201238 through seedling test by mechanical inoculation.

In this study, for the development of useful food materials, the proximate composition(total carbohydrates, crude fiber, crude protein, fat and ash) and biological activities(electron donating activity, total polyphenol contents, ACE inhibitory and ${\gamma}$-glucosidase inhibitory effects) were determined in the Garlmoe and the four wild Flammulina velutipes. As a results, the dry matter of mushrooms contained large amounts of carbohydrates, from 65.9 to 70.5 g/100g dry weight. the wild collected Flammulina velutipes proved to be an especially good source of crude fiber(7.9~18.1 g/100 g dry weight). Crude protein, fat, and ash contents of the mushrooms ranged 17.1~21.3, 4.1~5.2, and 5.7~8.4 g/100g dry weight, respectively. The electron donating activity ranged from 63.35 to 69.31% and total polyphenol contents ranged from 9.83 to 11.14 mg/g in these mushrooms. ACE inhibitions were high in Garlmoe and CBMFV-02 strain. ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibition was the highest in CBMFV-01(46.56%) strain and lowest in Garlmoe(15.91%).

Fish assemblages associated with rock reef and non-rock reef were studied using specimens collected at three sites in Geomun Island waters of the Southern Sea, Korea, in February, May, August and October, 2006. Two survey methods for the study were followed: collection by a gill net, and video observation by scuba diving. The gill-net survey was conducted during the night, the scuba-diving observations were conducted during the day. From the gill-net survey, a total of 40 species, 380 inds. and 71,426.9 g was caught at the three sites. The dominant species was Trachurus japonicus; other species were Raja kenojei, Dasyatis akajei, Stephanolepis cirrhifer, Narke japonica, Pagrus major, Sebastes inermis, and Sphyraena pinguis. At the rock-reef site, a total of 26 species, 264 inds. and 46,776.7 g was caught by gill net, and the dominant species was T. japonicus. A total of 17 species, 45 inds., 10,535.1 g was caught at the flat-bottom 1 site, and 19 species, 71 inds. and 14,115.1 g were caught at the flat-bottom 2 site. The scuba-diving survey resulted in 13 species and 1,749 inds. observed at the three sites through the survey period. The main observed fishes were rock-dwelling species such as Chromis notatus, Microcanthus strigatus, S. cirrhifer, Ditrema temmincki, Evistias acutriostris, Girella punctata, Halichoeres poecilopterus, Hexagrammos agrammus, Prionurus scalprum, Sebastes inermis, and Semicossyphus reticulatus. Seven species and 1,739 inds. observed at the rock-reef site comprised 99.4% of the inds. of the three sites. Therefore, the fish community in Geomun Island waters included many rock-reef. species, but a few were migratory species like T. japonicus and Scomber japonicus. The abundance of fish at the rock-reef site was high in comparison with those at two non-rock reefs. The dominant species were very different between the day and the night, although rock-reef species comprised the main part of the fish community. We conclude that the high abundance of fish in Geomun Island waters is most closely related to physical structure, such as rock reefs, which is the main habitat of many fishes.

The consumption of foods containing trans fatty acids (TFAs) is a matter of concern at present. According to many studies, trans fatty acids (TFAs) may cause illnesses such as the coronary heart disease, diabetes mellitus, large intestine cancer, and breast cancer. They can also raise low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol and reduce high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol. TFAs can also inhibit the synthesis of phospholipids containing polyunsaturated fatty acids in arterial cells. As a consequence the Food and Drug Administration has deemed that saturated fatty acid, cholesterol and trans fatty acid levels be listed on food labels as of 2006. The Korea Food and Drug Administration also has required the listing of trans fatty acid content on food labels since 2007. The aim of this study was to determine the total lipid and trans fatty acid (TFA) contents in retort food, powdered milk, biscuit and pizza products. The number of samples examined were 2 retort food, 6 powdered milk, 7 biscuit and 3 pizza products. The extraction of total lipids in retort food and powdered milk followed the chloroform methanol method. The extraction of total lipids in biscuit and pizza was by the acid digestion method. All samples were analyzed by gas chromatography (GC) using a SP-2560 capillary column and a flame ionization detector. The TFA contents per 100g of sample were 1-2.8% (1.9%) in retort foods, 0.4-2.4% (1.37%) in powdered milk products, 0-2.9% (1.23%) in biscuits, and 2.8-3.45% (3.03%) in pizzas.

This study was conducted to elucidate phylogenetic relationships and genetic characterization of silkworms that might be recognized as the Korean native strains. Genetic characterization in isozymes and the proteins of larval hemolymph of 17 silkworms were observed by acrylamide gel eletrophoresis, on 12 genes; Bph, Bes, les, Amy-hc, Ict-A, -B, -D,-E,-H, Pfl, Pst, Lp. Gene frequencies in each locus were compared other geographic strains. Korean native strains were remarkably different from others considered as the genetic characterization of Korean native strains. Phylogenetic relationships in Korean native strains were analysed using RAPD-PCR markers. A total of 40 primers were used and 346 bands of amplified DNA were generated from geographic strains. Genetic similarity based on the RAPD bands was used to construct phylogenetic dendrogram based on analysis of bard sharing data of amplified markers. Genetic similarity ranged from 0.595 to 0.860. In the genetic relationship based on dendrogram, they were classified into Bombyx mori group (including 16 domesticated silkworm strains) and B. mandarina group. The Bombyx mori group was separated into three sub-groups at the genetic similarity of 0.6930, including Korean, Japanese and Chinese groups. According to this result, the Korean native variety can be considered as a clearly different variety from other geographic strains. It may be concluded that the Korean native strains are also one of original geographic variety such as Japanese, Chinese, etc.

The essential oils from the aerial parts of Tagetes minuta L. from two different locations in Korea were obtained by hydrodistillation in 0.52%(Goheung, Chonnam) and 0.48% yields(Puan, Chonbuk) as a dry weight base, respectively. A total of 69 components, accounting in 94.7% and 92.1% of the oil, respectively were identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometric analysis and comparison of retention indices with those of authentic compounds. The main components in both samples(Goheung, Chonnam and Puan, Chonbuk) were limonene(5.83% and 6.41%, respectively), $cis-{\beta}-ocimene$ (4.87% and 47.73%), dihydrotagetone(14.78% and 52.83%), trans-tagetone(0.64% and 2.99%), cis-tagetone(1.13% and 2.50%), trans-tagetenone(1.15% and 11.45%) and cis-tagetenone(0.69% and 1.41 %). Although these components were present in both samples, the results showed large differences in the percentage composition of these components.

To product the edible fresh shoots of Sedum sarmentosum in summer season, 4 local strains were cultivated with cutting propagation under 0, 30, 50, 70, 90% shading. Effect of shading on shoot growth, leaf chroma value, SPAD value, and bitterness were investigated at 35 days after cutting. Plant height, the number of node and leaf stem diameter in $30{\sim}90%$ shading were increased than in the control, and Pohang local strain had little-overgrowth shoot, thicker stem, a few brenches per shoot, and larger leaf compared to the other local strains. Fresh and dry weight under shading were increased than in the control, dry weight of pohang local strain was highest in 50% shading. Hunter L and b values were decreased out of proportion to higher shading rate. SPAD value in $50{\sim}90%$ shading was significantly lower than in the control. The bitterness of fresh shoot was decreased out of proportion to higher shading rate. In Summer season, producing the fresh shoot of S. sarmentosum was excellent in 50% shading, and Pohang local strain among 4 local strains was more stable and good in yield and quality under shading.
