$GA_{4+7}$+BA, a plant growth regulator for induction of feathering in young apple tree and increasing fruit size, was applied by various methods on 'Gala'/M.9 apple trees in high density orchard for 4 years to investigate its effect on fruit and shoot growth. $GA_{4+7}$+BA($80-300mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$) increased fruit length, fruit weight, and L/D ratio regardless of application methods, but it did not affect soluble solid content, acidity, leaf area, and chlorophyll. Seed number was not affected by $GA_{4+7}$+BA application, however, more immature seeds was observed in treated 'Gala' fruit. Shoot growth was increased when spraying $GA_{4+7}$+BA at tree crown but not affected when spraying at fruit directly. More significant fruit growth was observed when $GA_{4+7}$+BA was applied on the fruits between late of May and early of June when fruit cell division ended; however, high concentration of $GA_{4+7}$+BA resulted in lower fruit storability because of lower firmness. Hence, more attention should be paid when applying high concentration of $GA_{4+7}$+BA to small sized fruit cultivars like 'Gala'.

Single crysals of BaTiO3 were grown by TSSG technique at various cooling rates. Morpolo girts, defects and domain structures of the grown crystals were investigated. At the cooling rates below 0.5℃/hr, equant single crystals were obtained and the 11111 faces were dominantly developed. If the cooling rate was much faster or if the vortical temperature gradient in the so lotion was very large, the solution became unstable and the needle formed BasTil04 o crystals were precipitated. Two sets of parallel lamella domains are arranged perpendicular to each other and the irregularly shaped boundaries are fixed between them. These sets of domains show remarkable orientation contrast in x-ray topography. Heating the crystal above 127℃, the phase transition from tetragonal to cubic occurs. The phase transition front (PTF) moves in the direction of temperature gradient. Domains in the tetragonal phase are successively rearranged and regular strain patterns appear in the cubic phase. The habit plane of PTF in BaTi03 is found to deviate from a l1101 lattice plane by app roximately 9°.

$BaTiO_3$ particles were prepared using $Ba(OH)_2{\cdot}8H_2O$ and $Ti(OC_2H_5)O_4$ by the hydrothermal method and their characteristics treated at the various temperatures have been investigated. This prepared $BaTiO_3$ powder includes a very small amount of $H_2O$ and $OH^-$. By increasing the treated temperature from $200^{\circ}C$ to $1000^{\circ}C$, the mean particle size was accordingly increased from $0.022{\mu}m$ to $0.072{\mu}m$ and the tetrogonality(c/a)was increased from 1.02 to 1.2 so that the phase transition to tetroganal takes place. $BaTiO_3$ sintered at $1250^{\circ}C$ after heat treatment at $400^{\circ}C$ for 3 hrs showed a specific dielectric constant of 8120 and surface activation energy was 9680 kcal/mol.

Optimal synthetic condition of barium sulfate were investigated from the viewpoint of yield and bulkiness according to a randomized complete block design proposed by G.E.P. Box and K.B. Wilson. Barium chloride and magnesium sulfate were utilized as reactants in order to prepare barium sulfate in this study. It was found that optimum temperature range of reactant solutions was $60{\sim}100^{\circ}C$ and the optimum concentration range of the reactant solutions was $10{\sim}17.3%$ and $10{\sim}20%$ respectively, on the viewpoint of yield and bulkiness. The optimum mole ratio of $BaCI_2$ to $BaSO_4$ was in the range of $1.50{\sim}2.0$ and the optimum mole ratio of $BaCI_2$ to $BaSO_4$ was in the range of $1.50{\sim}2.0$ and the optimum reacting time range was $15{\sim}20$ minutes. The optimum drying temperature range was $110{\sim}130^{\circ}C$ from the viewpoint of yield, but it was $90{\sim}110^{\circ}C$ on the basis of bulkiness.

The role of NAA(1-Naphthaleneacetic acid) and BA(6-Benzyladenine) in the adventitious shoot regeneratlon from Populus leaf segments and changes in the pattern of RNA and protein synthesis were investigated. The adventitious shoot regeneration octured at the basal cut end of Populus leaf segments. This process was effected by many factors, including wounding culture conditions, light and plant growth regulators etc. The highest adventitious shoot regeneration frequency was obtained at $0.01mg/\ell$ NAA with $0.2mg/\ell$ BA. In this condition adventitious shoot starved to regenerate on the 13th day of oullure. The most optimal hormone composition for RNA and protein synthesis was $0.01mg/\ell$ NAA with $0.2mg/\ell$ BA. The content of RNA and protein was greater at the proximal part. In the course of adventitious shoot regeneration, the proteins associated with polar-regeneration appeared at the proximal part of populus leaf segment.

[ $(BaSr)TiO_3$ ] thick films were prepared by tape casting method, using $BaTiO_3\;and\;SrTiO_3$ powder slurry in order to investigate dielectric properties i.e. dielectric constant, ${\varepsilon}_r$, Curie temperature, $T_c$. Grain growth within $(BaSr)TiO_3$ thick films was observed with increasing weight ratio of $BaTiO_3$. This observation can be explained by phenomena of substitution of $Sr^{2+}$ ion for $Bi^{2+}$ ion in the $BaTiO_3$ system. Also, the Curie temperature in $(BaSr)TiO_3$ thick films was shifted to lower temperature range with increasing $ SrTiO_3$. Furthermore, Curie temperature having maximum dielectric constant was in the range of $-40^{\circ}C\;to\;30^{\circ}C$, and hence sharper phase transformation occurred at Curie temperature. There occurred decrease in tunability and k-factor of $(Ba_{0.6}Sr_{0.4})TiO_3$ calculated from the dielectric constant, ${\varepsilon}_r$ above Curie temperature. In addition, above the $60^{\circ}C$, phase fixation was observed. This means that internal stress relief occurred with increasing $90^{\circ}$ domains.

A ${\beta}-1,3-glucanase$ of soybean (Glycine max) was isolated, and the effects of benzyladenine(BA) on celluar levels of the enzyme content and activity were studied. The effects of BA on callose content in cell wall and wall regeneration of protoplasts were also studied to show promoting effect of cytokinin in cell wall regeneration and to elucidate action mode of cytokinin. The polypeptide of 21 kD was identified as ${\beta}-1,3-glucanase$, and the cellular content and activity of this polypeptide were decreased by BA treatment. The callose content in cell wall of callus and the wall regeneration of protoplasts were increased by BA treatment. These results indicate that cytokinin promotes cell wall regeneration by inhibition of callose degradation via decreasing ${\beta}-1,3-glucanase$ level in cell.

Objectives : This study aimed to investigate the difference of brain activities in viewing a common emotional situation according to perspective-taking. Methods : Using fMRI, brain activities were measured while performing the task viewing a common emotional situation on either self-perspective or third-person perspective in fourteen healthy men. The relatively activated brain areas on each perspective were investigated, then the relationship between the activated brain regions and the scores of self report about some emotion or empathic ability were explored. Results : The relatively activated brain areas on self-perspective were bilateral paracentral lobule(BA 5), right postcentral gyrus(BA 3), right precentral gyrus(BA 4), left superior temporal gyrus(BA 22), left medial frontal gyrus(BA 6), whereas on third-person perspective right inferior frontal gyrus(BA 47), left caudate body and tail, right superior temporal gyrus(BA 38), right medial frontal gyrus(BA 8) were activated. The relative activity of left superior temporal gyrus on self-perspective was positively correlated with the score of Beck Depression Inventory. Conclusion : This study demonstrated that the activated brain region according to perspective-taking were different while viewing a common emotional situation. The depressive feeling would have an influence on the brain activity related to perspective-taking.

In order to establish micropropagation system Anthurium andreanum 'Atlanta', dwarf type, shoots of A. andreanum were cultured on medium supplemented with cytokinin. Callus was formed from the base of shoots. high frequency callus induction was obtained on medium with 10.0mg/L BA or 10.0mg/L TDZ(thidiazuron) at more than 71.8%. The shoots were cultured on media with various combinations and concentrations of TDZ, BA and 2.4-D to enhance callus induction. Callus was induced at more than 72.6% and grew vigorously on media containing 10.0mg/L BA and 0.0∼0.5mg/L 2.4-D, or 1.0mg/L TDZ. Stimulation effects of cytokinin by 2.4-D did not occur in combined treatments of cytokinin and 2.4-D. Callus was cut into sections(7${\times}$10mm), and then cultured on media with BA alone or BA and 2.4-D to regenerate shoots and to stimulate the callus growth. Shoot regeneration and callus growth were effective on media with 10.0mg/L BA alone, or 10.0mg/L BA and 0.1mg/L 2.4-D. In combined treatments of BA and 2.4-D, stmulation effects of cytocinin by 2.4-D also did not occur. Callus growth was decreased, accordiong to increasing the concentration of 2.4-D. In cimbined treatments of TDZ and 2.4-D in shoot regeneration and callus proliferation, stimulated effects of cytokinin by 2.4-D did not occur entirely. Media with 0.5∼1.0mg/L TDZ ingibited the regeneration and rooting of shoots, and callus growth from callus sections. Addition of 2.4-D on medium with TDZ ingibited the regeneration and rooting of shoots, and callus growth. Rooted plantdts were acclimatized in greenhouse. The plantlets were survived more than 98% in soil of vermiculite alone or mixed perlite 1 and vermiculite 1.

A magnetoplumbite type of Ba ferrite(BaM) layers were deposited on Pt(111) and Pt(200) layers, and their c-axis orientation and magnetic characteristics were compared each other. The as-deposited BaM layer on Pt(111) one at the substrate temperature $T_s$ above $500^{\circ}C$ revealed remarkable c-axis orientation. The saturation magnetization 4$\piM_s$ and the perpendicular coercivity $H_{c⊥}$ of the films as-deposited at $T_s$ of $600^{\circ}C$ were 4.0kG and 2.5kOe, respectively. On the other hand, BaM ferrite layer deposited on Pt(200) layer at $T_s$ as relatively low as $500^{\circ}C$ also revealed weak c-axis orientation as well as (107) one and the films as-deposited at $T_s$ of $600^{\circ}C$ exhibited 4$\piMs_{and}$ $H_{c⊥}$ of 2.8kG and 2.5kOe, respectively. It was suggested that although chemical activity of Pt surface was effective for the formation of BaM crystallites, the lattice matching was also important for obtaining BaM layer with good c-axis orientation and large perpendicular anisotropy.sotropy.
