This study was to investigate the chemical compositions of germinated (GSS)- and ungerminated (UGSS)-safflower (Carthamus tinctorius) seeds. GSS had higher amount of sugar and crude fiber than UGSS, but less amounts of protein and lipid. Levels of $\alpha$-tocopherol and essential amino acids of GSS were higher than those of UGSS, although there are no difference in fatty acid composition between GSS and UGSS. Among the nine phenolic compounds detected, five phenolic compounds, except for two lignans and two flavonoids, were found in both GSS and UGSS. Four serotonin derivatives accounted for about 80 per cent of total phenolic compounds, and levels of five phenolic compounds decreased slightly with germination. These results suggest that germination may enhance the functionality of safflower seed by increasing nutritional compositions and by decreasing phenolic compounds with bitter taste and cathartic effects.

This study was performed for increasing the consumption and developing the function of pumpkin(Cucurbita moschata DUCH.) seed. The changes of the contents of general chemical compositions, fatty acids, amino acids, ascorbic acid and ${\beta}$-carotene during sprouting were analyzed. Also, the bitter taste, which was produced during sprouting, were purified by using thin layer chromatography and preparative high pressure liquid chromatography. The purified bitter compound was identified by mass spectrum and nuclear magnetic resonance($^1$H '||'&'||' $\^$13/C-NMR). Weight of pumpkin seed sprout was increased to 348.4% and the length of stem was dramatically increased at 8 days. In each head and stem parts of the pumpkin seed sprout, the contents of protein and lipid were decreased, however, the contents of fiber, ash and soluble inorganic nitrogen were increased. The fatty acids of the pumpkin seed sprout were mainly represented as linoleic acid, oleic acid, palmitic acid and stearic acid. During sprouting, palmitic acid was gradually increased, reversely, linoleic acid was gradually decreased. The general amino acids of head part in the pumpkin seed sprout grown at 23$^{\circ}C$ during 8 days were orderly more contained glycine, alanine, arginine, cystein and proline. Those of free amino acids were orderly more contained arginine, threonine, alanine and glutamine. The contents of L-ascorbic acid and ${\beta}$-camtene of the pumpkin seed sprout were gradually increased with increasing sprouting days. The bitter taste material of head part of the pumpkin seed sprout was detected at Rf value 0.72 on silicagel TLC plate and separuted as one peak by HPLC. The chemical structure of the puified bitter compound was identified as a cucurbitacin glycoside by MS and NMR. The content of bitter compound at 8 days was contained 42.2 mg per 1kg sprout head.

In vitro grown microtubers of potato (cv Jaju) were used for introduction of herbicide resistance gene using bombardment with DNA-coated particles. The apical shoot-tip area of newly sprouted microtubers were intensively bombarded. After bombardment, microtubers were germinated and transplanted in a greenhouse. Northern blot analysis indicated that bar gene was expressed in two plantlets. After 5 weeks of growing, commercial herbicide Basta was sprayed to screen the resistant plants. All untransformed potato plants died after 7 days while two transgenic plants survived.

Sunflower (Sunking4505) and Rape (Sunmang) are oil-seeds containing high oleic acid, and these are used for the production materials of bio-diesel and applying for phytoremediation. The effect of cadmium on germination rate and the growth of the plants is evaluated. Object seeds were placed in Cd (0, 1.5, 4, 12, 30, 60, 100, 150, 300, 500 mg/L) solutions for seven days, and germination rate, root length, shoot length, seedling length, and dry weight were observed. $IC_{50}$, seedling vigor index, and tolerance indices were computed, and data were statistically analyzed by Analysis of Variance (ANOVA). Germination rate as well as root, shoot, and seedling length decreased as the cadmium concentration increased except dry weight. The $IC_{50}$ of sunflower and rape are 112 and 10 mg-Cd/L, respectively. Only one of the sunflower seeds is germinated at 500 mg-Cd/L whereas rape seeds are not germinated more than 150 mg-Cd/L solution. Root has higher cadmium sensitivity than shoot, and sunflower has higher germination rate, growth, and seedling vigor index than rape. In case of tolerance indices, sunflower has lower value than rape at relatively low concentration, but has higher value at high concentration.

The purpose of this study was to develop new functional cereal bars for breakfast with 9 types of cereal(corn, whole wheat, rice, brown rice, black rice, indian millet, sprouting brown rice, black soybean, job's tear) and their chemical and sensory properties were evaluated. Process of cereal bars are cereal mixing ${\to}$ formation ${\to}$ baking ${\to}$ cooling ${\to}$ topping. Moisture content of sunsik-type cereal bars were $9.4\%$, and puffed-type cereal bars were $10.1\%$. L-values of sunsik cereal bars were lower than that of puffed type cereal bars, and a-value was the highest in sunsik-type cereal bars with fructooligosaccaride. Texture measurement showed that hardness of sunsik-type cereal bars was higher than that of puffed-type cereal bars. Sensory evaluation resulted that sunsik-type cereal bars showed the high quality Score.

The presoaking conditions of soybeans in various solution for decreasing microbial contamination and improving germination were investigated. Soybeans were treated with presoaking solutions (sterilized water, 0.1% grape fruit extract, 0.1% vitamin $B_1$ derivate solution AS5 and vitagen) at $25^{\circ}C,\;35^{\circ}C,\;45^{\circ}C\;and\;55^{\circ}C$ for $3\sim12$ hr and germinate at $25^{\circ}C$, 95%RH for 3 days. Total bacterial count and coliform count of soybeans were $6.0\times10^5CFU/g$ and $3.0\times10^5CFU/g$, respectively, and the most of presoaking treatments decreased the microbial contamination. The increase of presoaking time induces low germination ratio compared with unsoaked soybeans and the germination of soybeans was not detected at $55^{\circ}C$. The germination of soybeans was effected by presoaking solutions, temperature, and time. The optimal presoaking condition for decreasing microbial contamination and promoting initial germination was using grape fruit extract at $35^{\circ}C$ for 6 hr.

This study focused on the usefulness of plant extracts for a city organic farm. Insecticidal activity of 8 plant species, plants crude extracts by ethanol and water, against third instar larvae (susceptible strain) of Plutella xylostella was evaluated in this study. Ethanol(25%) extracts of plant materials had better insecticidal activity than water extracts at the room temperature. Insecticidal activity were investigated by leaf disc spray method. Five plant extracts (Capsicum annuum, Chelidoniun majus, Leonurus sibiricus, Coptis japonica, Mentha piperascens) showed over 50% insecticidal activity to P. xylostella at the concentration of $1500mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$. Extract of C. annuum showed the highest insecticidal activity (83.3%) against P. xylostella. Phytotoxicity was not observed on Raphanus sativus and Brassica campestris with spray application. Seed germination and growth of two plants were not affected. Extract of C. japonica revealed 73.3% control efficacy against P. xylostella of R. sativus and showed 70% control efficacy against those of B. campestris, respectively, in plastic house. Insecticidal activity against various insects was observed in C. japonica extract as 87.4% for R. sativus and 74.3% for B. campestris in the field. These results suggested that extracts of C. annuum, C. japonica showed the highest insecticidal activity, and could be used as city farm insecticides for organic farming.

Simulated acid rain(SAR) treatment caused a lethal effect on the newly germinated seedlings of Capsicum annum cv. Komyung even though the germination rate of the seeds was stimulated by the treatment of SAR. Young germinated seedlings were much more sensitive to SAR than the already-grown seedlings. The typical symptom caused by SAR was white spot or lesion on the leaf and appeared readily and severely at the low pH of SAR. Generally, Phytophthora rot was severer in SAR treatments than in control. However, the disease was less severe in lower pH of the SAR treatment than in higher pH. Pathogen inoculation following the SAR treatment increased the disease. The severest Phytophthora rot was observed in the SAR treatment of pH 4.0 or 4.5 regardless of the inoculation time.

전산기의 신뢰도(reliability)라 함은 사용자가 제출한 입력에 대하여 전산 기가 제공하는 결과의 신빙성의 척도라할 수 있는데, 이것은 주어진 전산기의 부 분품 하나하나가, 그리고 프로그램의 하나하나의 instruction이 설계당시에 목적한 성능을 얼마나 잘 유지하고 있는가를 측정하는 척도라고 볼 수 있습니다. 이 신 뢰도는 전산기의 수명, 필요할 때 전산기가 가동할 확율, 또는 전산기의 성능으로 나타낼 수 있습니다. 제2세대 이전의 전산기들에서는 전자공업과 전산기 기술의 불충분한 발전으로 인하여 비용과 기계의 크기의 한정 때문에 신뢰도 향상을 위 한 대책이 거의 없었습니다. 따라서 현재 볼 수 있는 American Air Line의 SABRE(Semi Automatic Business Research Environment), Bell 전화 연구소의 ESS-I, II, III(Electronic Switching System), IBM의 FMS(Future Manufacturing System)과 같은 real-time 씨스템으로서의 응용분야의 개발은 상 당히 어려운 문제였습니다. 그러나 전자공업의 비약적인 발전에 힘입어 금세대의 범용전산기의 설계가 가능하게 되었고, 오퍼레이팅 씨스템의 발전으로 인하여 multiprogramming, time-sharing, real-time 씨스템 등의 응용분야의 개발이 활발 하게 되었습니다. 이러한 응용분야의 활발한 개발과, 대규모 집적회로 (LSI)의 개 발로 ROM(Read Only Memory)의 가격화, 그리고 microprogram의 보급 등으로 특수 목적의 time sharing operation을 위한 소형 전산기가 발전하게 되었으며 종 래의 범용 전산기 대신에 CDC의 string unit과 pipeline을 이용한 STAR 100과 일리노이 대학의 256processor와 Burrough의 B6500로 구성된 ILLIAC-IV와 같은 초대형 전산기가 등장하게 되었습니다.
