Inactivation of the gene coding for dihydroflavonol 4-reductase (DFR) is responsible for the color difference between red and yellow onions (Allium cepa L.). Two inactive DFR-A alleles, DFR-$A^{PS}$ and DFR-$A^{DEL}$, were identified in our previous study. A functional marker was developed on the basis of the premature stop codon that inactivated the DFR-$A^{PS}$ allele. A derived cleaved amplified polymorphic sequences (dCAPS) primer was designed to detect the single nucleotide polymorphism, an A/T transition, which produced the premature stop codon. Digested PCR products clearly distinguished the homozygous and heterozygous red $F_2$ individuals. Meanwhile, to develop a molecular marker for detection of the DFR-$A^{DEL}$ allele in which entire DFR-A gene was deleted, genome walking was performed and approximately 3 kb 5' and 3' flanking sequences of the DFR-$A^R$ coding region were obtained. PCR amplification using multiple primers binding to the extended flanking regions showed that more of the extended region of the DFR-A gene was deleted in the DFR-$A^{DEL}$ allele. A dominant simple PCR marker was developed to identify the DFR-$A^{DEL}$ allele using the dissimilar 3' flanking sequences of the DFR-A gene and homologous DFR-B pseudogene. Distribution of the DFR-$A^{PS}$ and DFR-$A^{DEL}$ alleles in yellow onion cultivars bred in Korea and Japan was surveyed using molecular makers developed in this study. Results showed predominant existence of the DFR-$A^{PS}$ allele in yellow onion cultivars.

The bulb storability of eight red and ten yellow onion (Allium cepa L.) cultivars grown primarily in Korea was evaluated. During storage, sprouting occurred earlier in red cultivars than in yellow cultivars. In addition, the ratio of sprouted to unsprouted bulbs increased more rapidly in red cultivars than in yellow cultivars. However, not all yellow cultivars had strong storabilities. Bulb storability of three yellow cultivars was as poor as that of red cultivars, suggesting only a slight possibility of a pleiotropic effect of color and bulb storability. Meanwhile, $F_3$ lines of a red cultivar selected based on stronger storabilities showed intermediate storabilities between those of the red and yellow cultivars, implying that strong storability could be obtained by successive selection. In contrast, $F_1$ hybrids from crosses between yellow and red breeding lines showed poor storability compared with the yellow cultivars, indicating that poor storability may be dominant over strong storability. The relationships between color and other traits that potentially affect storability, such as fresh and dry weight, water content, and firmness of bulbs, were evaluated. No significant differences in these traits were observed between the two colors, although the water content of yellow cultivars and the dry weight of red cultivars were slightly higher than their counterparts. Correlation analyses between bulb storability and other traits, including weight, water content, and firmness, also showed no significant correlations. In this study, no correlations were identified between bulb color, storability, and other traits. However, based on these results, red cultivars with stronger storabilities could be developed through successive selection of bulbs with stronger storabilities.

An eight-week feeding trial was conducted to evaluate the effects of a diet consisting of different onion juice processing by-product (OJPB) levels on juvenile black rockfish Sebastes schlegelii growth, feed utilization, and, lysozyme and antioxidant enzymes activities. Juvenile rockfish (2.2 g) were randomly distributed into 15 flow-through tanks (30 fish/tank). Five experimental diets were prepared in triplicate. The experimental diets were supplemented with OJPB at different levels of 0 (control), 0.25, 0.5, 0.75 and 1% (designated as OJPB0, OJPB0.25, OJPB0.5, OJPB0.75 and OJPB1, respectively). At the end of the feeding trial, the results revealed that the fish that were fed the OJPB0.75 and OJPB1 diets showed enhancement in growth (weight gain and specific growth rate) and feed utilization (feed efficiency and protein efficiency ratio) compared with the fish that were fed other diets. Plasma lysozyme, glutathione concentration, and superoxide dismutase and catalase activities significantly increased in the fish that were fed the OJPB0.75 and OJPB1 diets. In conclusion, dietary supplementation of 0.75-1% OJPB in juvenile rockfish diet improved the growth performance and antioxidant status.

한국산 식용 및 약용식물의 항당뇨 효과 탐색 연구로 본 연구에서는 Allium속 식물 중 식품으로 다양하게 사용하고 있는 5가지 양파, 파, 마늘, 부추 및 산마늘을 냉동건조하고 분말화하여 첨가한 식이를 STZ로 유발시킨 당뇨 흰쥐에게 28일간 섭취시킨 후 혈장 포도당, 지질 함량 및 간장내 무기질 함량을 분석하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1) STZ에 의한 당뇨유발로 당뇨대조군의 체중은 감소하였으나 당뇨실험군의 체중은 증가하는 경향을 보였고 특히 마늘섭취군에서는 유의적인 체중 증가를 나타내었다. 식이이용효율에서도 당뇨대조군은 다식현상으로 식이섭취량은 체중증가량이 적어 음 (-)의 식이효율을 나타내었고 양파섭취군과 마늘섭취군 및 부추섭취군은 유의적으로 높은 식이효율을 보였다. 2) 장기의 무게는 당뇨대조군과 당뇨실험군에 비해 마늘섭취군의 신장 무게가 유의적으로 낮아 신장 비대를 엊제한 것으로 나타났으며 다른 장기에서는 유의적인 차이를 보이지 않았다. AST 활성도는 실험군간에 유의성이 없는 결과를 나타내었으나 ALT 활성도는 마늘섭취군에서 유의적으로 낮은 수준을 나타내었다. 3) 당뇨대조군은 고혈당이 지속된 반면 마늘섭취군의 혈당은 실험 1주째부터 유의적으로 낮은 수준을 보여 혈당 억제 효과를 나타내었으며 부추섭취군도 실험 4주째에는 유의적으로 낮은 수준의 혈당을 나타내었다. 간장 글리코겐 함량은 정상군에 비해 모든 당뇨유발군이 유의적으로 낮은 함량을 나타내었으나 당뇨대조군에 비해 Allium속 식물의 섭취는 모두 높은 수치를 보이었다. 4) 혈장 내 콜레스테롤, 중성지방, 유리지방산, HDL-콜레스테롤 함량은 각 실험군간의 유의차가 없었으며 폐의 MDA 함량은 당뇨대조군에 비해 양파섭취군, 마늘섭취군, 부추섭취군과 산마늘섭취군에서 유의적으로 낮았다. Allium속 식물 중 마늘과 부추는 고혈당의 수준을 저하시키거나 억제시켜 혈당을 개선할 수 있으며 부추와 산마늘섭취가 혈당저하에는 관련되지 않았으나 조직의 과산화지질 감소에는 작용함을 알 수 있었다. 당뇨병의 주요증세가 고혈당 그리고 다식임에도 불구하고 급격한 체중감소를 보인다는 점에서 본 실험결과는 Allium속 식물을 당뇨동물에게 급여함으로써 체중저하를 방지하고 당대사를 개선함으로써 당뇨병의 증세가 어느 정도 호전될 수 있음을 보여준다. Allium속 식물이라도 함유된 생리활성 성분에 따라 다른 생리적 기능을 나타낼 수 있으므로 그 생리활성성분을 고려한 적절한 섭취는 그 효능을 극대화할 수 있음을 추정할 수 있으며 각 성분에 대한 생리 활성에 대해서는 더 깊은 연구가 필요하다고 사료된다. 또한 그 자체로서 항산화 작용에 관여하거나 다양한 체내 산화스트레스에 대해 영향을 받는 Cr, Zn, Fe 및 Mn과 같은 미량 원소들의 체내 반응 기작에 관해서는 앞으로 좀더 연구해야 할 과제라고 사료된다.

This study was carried out investigate to optimum levels of nitrogen and phosphate fertilizer to get a higher yield and a quality of an onion(Allium Cepa L.) from 1993 to 1994. Three fertilizer levels were applied with 120, 240 and 360kg/ha of nitrogen and 100, 200 and 300kg/ha of P2O5 during the onion growing season. After harvesting the onion, it was storaged at given deposit. The growth and yield of the onion were better at the fertilizer levels of both 240 and 360kg/ha of nitrogen and of both 200 and 300kg/ha of P2O5 than at the level of 120kg/ha in nitrogen and 100kg/ha of P2O5. The content of total nitrogen and P2O5 in plant was decreased with reduced application levels of nitrogen and phosphate fertilizer. The rotting rate was higher at the levels of both 360kg/ha in nitrogen and 300kg/ha in P2O5 than the other treatment during the storage period. The sprouting rate tended to be high at 240kg/ha of nitrogen and 100kg/ha of P2O5.

열처리한 양파 착즙액의 ethyl acetate 분획물로부터 항산화물질을 분리 동정하기 위하여 1, 2차 silica gel column chromatography, preparative TLC 및 HPLC를 이용하여 항산화활성 물질을 분리 정제하였다. GC/MSD, $^1H$-NMR 및 $^{13}C$-NMR spectrum 결과로부터 구조 동정한 결과 분리된 물질은 2,3-dihydro-3,5-dihydroxy-6-methyl-4H-pyran-4-one(DDMP)으로 확인되었다. DDMP의 항산화활성의 $IC_{50}$값은 241.6 ${\mu}g/mL$이었으며, vitamin E의 69.2 ${\mu}g/mL$와 C의 45.3 ${\mu}g/mL$보다는 낮은 활성을 보였고 BHT의 268.0 ${\mu}g/mL$보다는 높은 활성을 보였지만 유의적인(p>0.05) 차이는 나타나지 않았다. 추후 DDMP를 기능성물질로 활용하기 위하여 다양한 생리활성 평가가 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

A two year study was conducted on the effects of composted pig manure applications on organically managed intermediate-day onion ($Allium$ $cepa$ L.) with mid-season production. The manure application rates were 0, 4.0, 6.0, and 8.0 $ton{\cdot}ha^{-1}$, and accompanied by organic fertilizer with 240 $kg{\cdot}ha^{-1}$ nitrogen for all treatments. There was a positive linear effect on the marketable bulb yield with increasing applications of pig manure. However, pig manure rates of 6.0 or 8.0 $ton{\cdot}ha^{-1}$ did not affect the marketable yields or bulb weights at harvest. There was no significant difference between pig manure application rates and mineral concentration or nutrient uptake in onion bulbs. Soil pH and electric conductivity (EC) were lower at harvest compared to preplant soil, while exchangeable potassium and calcium contents increased at harvest. However, there were no significant effects on soil pH, EC, and organic matter or exchangeable cations caused by different pig manure application rates. Mineralized $NO_3$-N content was not affected by pig manure application rates except at transplanting and 129 day after transplanting. Based on the results of this study, when organic fertilizer is applied at a rate of 240 $kg{\cdot}ha^{-1}$ N, 6.0 $ton{\cdot}ha^{-1}$ composted pig manure should be adequate for producing onions using an organic production system.
