In addition to the removal of dying or dead lutein cells by phagocytosis in many species, macrophages exert both luteotropic effect during maturation period and luteolytic effect during degenerative period via mediating autocrine/paracrine actions of self-producing cytokines in the corpus luteum. In this experiment, immunohistochemical and transmission electron microscopic (TEM) studies were performed to observe the morphologic changes of luteal macrophages during luteolysis. A small number of macrophages and low immunoreactivity were present at the mature stage. The number of macrophages and immunoreactivity gradually increased along the advance of luteolysis. Two subtypes of macrophages could be observed through TEM observation. One type of macrophage located between the large lutein cells contained no lipid droplets in their cytoplasm at mature stage. The other type of macrophage located near the blood vessels contained many lipid droplets in their cytoplasm during luteolysis. Particularly, no phagocytic macrophages were observed, which suggested the macrophages in the porcine corpus luteum did not involve in the phagocytotic elimination of dying lutein cells.

This study was conducted to develop an optimal pruning method for okra production. Three pruning methods were tested including apical bud removing, one-third removing from the top of plant, and no pruning as a control with 3 kinds interval for 15 days after 2 months sowing. The growth and development of okra was better at the treatment of one-third removing of plant than the others. The number of branches was 0.7 in control, 3.7~4.0 in apical bud removing, and 3.0~6.0 in one-third removing treatment. In summary, one-third pruning of plant from the top of plant at 30 days after starting of pruning treatment, which showed the highest yield by 12,910 kg/10a.

To clarify the effects of sink demand for assimilate on leaf photosynthetic rate, tissue composition, and leaf senescence of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] J plants, pod and leaf tissues were removed at growth stage $R^3$. Plant responses were measured every 10days from 2 through 42days following treatment. Leaves of depodded plants exhibited increased starch and chlorophyll contents and specific leaf weight. Stomatal resistance was also increased and leaf photosynthetic rate was reduced. Dry weight of vegetative tissues except leaves was increased by pod removal. Leaf removal resulted in a decreased starch content of leaves from 22 to 42days after treatment and that of roots at all sampling times. Specific leaf weight was decreased while leaf photosynthetic rate was increased. Stomatal resistance and chlorophyll content were little affected. Weight per seed was decreased 3.0% by leaf removal. Except for the seed, tissue protein contents were increased by pod removal but decreased by leaf removal, however, seed protein content was not affected by either. Apparent senescence was delayed by depodding. Both apparent and functional senescence were accelerated by leaf removal.

This study was conducted to investigate that the immature and mature oocytes of porcine can be cryopreserved by vitrification. Oocytes were centrifuged to polarize the cytoplasmic lipid droplets. The lipids were removed from cytoplasm by micromanipulation. Delipated oocytes were centrifuged after being preincubated with cytochalasin B(CB) fer 10 min, and lipid droplets were removed. Centrifuged oocytes were treated with CB and centrifuged to polorize lipid droplets but not delipated and control oocytes is not-treatment. Oocytes of three types were vitrified in electron microscope(EM) grids. The results of survival, maturation and cleavage rates were as follows. 1 The survival rates of immature oocytes were 15.1%, 0% and 0% in the Delipated, Centrifuged and Control after vitrification, respectively, and its rate of Delipated wassignificantly higher than Centrifuged and Control(P<.01). 2. The survival rates of mature oocytes were 12.21%, 0% and 0% in the Delipated, Centrifuged and Control after vitrification, respectively, and its rate of Delipated was significantly higher than Centrifuged and Control(P<.01). 3 The maturation rates of immature oocytes were 37.5% and 68.9% for metaphase II in the Delipated after vitrification and Non-vitrification, respectively, and its rate of Non-vitrification was significantly higher than Delipated after vitrification(P<.01). 4. The cleavage rates of immature oocytes were 12.5%, 0%, 0% and 56.1% in the Delipated, Centrifuged, Control after vitrification and Non-vitrification, respectively. It's rate of Delipated was higher than Centrifuged and Control, but there were no significant difference, and its rate of Non-vitrification was significantly higher than Delipated, Centrifuged and Control(P<.05). 5 The cleavage rates of mature oocytes were 25.0%, 0%, 0% and 67.9% in the Delipated, Centrifuged, Control after vitrification and Non-vitrification, respectively. It's rate of Delipated was higher than Centrifuged and Control, but there were no significant difference, and its rate of Non-vitrification was significantly higher than Delipated, Centrifuged and Control(P<.05).

This study was carried out to study the effect of eggplant (EG203) grafting and strawberry removal time on succeeding tomato cropping in high temperature season. In non tillage culture, bacterial wilt incidence was 30% and 0% in nongrafting and eggplant (EG203) grafting while 25% in non-grafting and 0% in eggplant (EG203) grafting in tillage culture. Commercial yield was similar in tillage and non-tillage culture using EG-203 grafting as 2,693 kg/10a and 2,657 kg/10a respectively with no difference in soluble solid content and hardness. Strawberry removal time after tomato planting enhanced plant height and internode length in 20days and 30days later removal while no difference in other growth characters. Commercial yield was higher as 1,885 kg/10a in strawberry removal before tomato planting than 1,678 kg/10a in 30days later removal. From this research, strawberry removal time should be determined by considering strawberry price and growth and expecting profit by succeeding tomato cropping.

This work focused on the effects of the timing and the frequency of shoot cutting to maximize the productivity and the nutrient removal of three emergent macrophytes, Phragmites communis, Zizania latifolia and Typha angustifolia in natural wetlands. Shoot cutting significantly enhanced biomass production and resulted in more nitrogen and phosphorus removal from water in these three experimental species, compared to those of control. However, the frequency and the timing of shoot cutting, and the enhancement ratio were different among three species. For Phragmites stands, the highest productivity was 1.9 times of control in June treatment of the first year experiment, while 1.3 times in May treatment of the second year experiment. Zizania and Typha stands were both 1.2 times of control in August treatment and June and August treatment. Calculating the total annual removal rate of nitrogen and phosphorus based on the highest productivities among treatments, in Phragmites stands, 2.0 times of nitrogen and 1.8 times of phosphorus were removed in the first year, and both 1.4 times in the second year experiment. Likewise, for nitrogen and phosphorus; 2.4 and L.8 times in Zizania stands, and 1.8 and 1.9 times in Typha stands were removed. Overall, these results suggested that cutting treatment of shoots be effective. Thus, shoot cutting of two times during a growing season were recommended to maximize the effects: that is, in May or June, and October for Phragmites stands, and in August and October fur Zizania and Typha stands.

Floret flowering of a monocarpic plant Orostachys japonicus should be controlled to change its harvest time. The study was done to clarify the effect of pinching time of inflorescence with many florets (Aug. 25, Sept. 8 and 22, Oct. 4) on its growth, morphological characters, and flowering. Night-break treatment of 2 hours at midnight were done since Aug. 25 when afterward samples were taken every 2 weeks to Nov. 4. Growth, morphological and flowering related characters were measured from each sample. Plant height, inflorescence length and number of leaves including bracts showed significant difference between the treatments because they were sharply increased until each pinching time. Stem diameter did nearly same. Leaf and bract, floret, shoot and total dry weights had similar response to the plant height, but stem and root dry ones did similar response to the stem diameter. Most florets were removed by the pinching treatments after formed ones were increased until each pinching time. Few florets were left after the treatment, meaning that night-break treatment after that could be skipped.

중유를 연소하는 D 발전소 탈황설비는 운전시간의 경과에 따라 흡수탑 중간층에 석고가 쌓이고 가스분사 파이프 내에 경질석고 스케일이 부착됨으로써 발전설비 및 탈황설비의 정상적인 운전이 어렵게 된다. 흡수탑 내부에 발생된 스케일을 제거하지 않을 경우에는 탈황효율의 저하에 따른 SO2 배출농도의 증가로 발전가능 최대출력의 하향조정이 발생되고 나아가 발전정지를 초래한다. 스케일 제거를 위한 탈황설비 세정은 발전가능 최대출력의 하향조정이 발생하는 시점으로 결정할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 탈황설비의 운전 자료를 분석하여 발전가능 최대출력의 하향조정이 발생되기 6주 전은 탈황설비 출구 SO2 농도값이 130ppm을 초과하고 동시에 흡수탑 차압은 380mmH2O을 초과하며, 직전 흡수탑 세정 이후 44주가 경과된 시점이 됨을 확인하였다. 그리고 흡수탑의 세정시기는 세정준비기간 6주와 발전가능 최대출력 하향이 발생되기 6주 전까지의 운전경과일수 44주를 더하여 직전 세정시점으로부터 50주가 경과된 시점임을 예측하였다.
