Physicochemical characteristics and analysis of functional constituents of mulberry (Morus alba L.) fruit juices were investigated according to four different mulberry cultivars, including iksuppong, daeseongppong, cheongilppong and kwasangppong. Among the four mulberry cultivars examined, the small-sized cheongilppong had higher soluble solid content and lower titratable acidity, whereas the big-sized daeseongppong had higher titratable acidity and lower soluble solid content than other mulberry cultivars. Cheongilppong had higher contents of fructose and glucose, while daeseongppong had higher contents of citric and malic acids than the other mulberry cultivars. Kwasangppong had higher contents of two anthocyanins, cyanidin 3-glucoside and cyanidin 3-rutinoside, while cheongilppong had lower contents of two anthocyanins than the other mulberry cultivars. Daeseongppong had higher contents of resveratrols, flavonoids and moracin, whereas cheongilppong had higher levels of protocatechuic, chlorogenic and caffeic acids than the other mulberry fruits. Of the four mulberry cultivars, daeseongppong and cheongilppong had higher contents of GABA and DNJ, respectively, than the other mulberry cultivars. These results provide useful information to food technologists for the development and standardization of high quality mulberry juices as well as their processed foods.

The fertilities of indigenous and cultivated mulberry species(varieties) which were polli nated with Morus nigra L. brought from Turkey were investigated. The percentage of ripening sorosis was very high in indigenous species, Morus tiliaefolia Makino and cultivated variety, Keomseolppong and it was around 50% in both Daeryukppong and Cheongilppong However, the flowers of Morus bombycis Koidz. (BOM5-8) and Yongcheonppong fell after pollination. Looking at the sizes of seeds, they are also various. Generally, it was extremely small in Morus tiliaefolia, but it was medium in Keomseolppong, Cheongilppong and Daeryukppong. The fertilization percentage was generally low with 32-42% in the varieties, but it was comparatively high in Keomseolppong and Morus tiliaefolia. The seed germination percentages of Daeryukppong and Morus tiliaefolia are 88.0% and 23.6%, respectively, but it was below 2% in Cheongilppong and Keomseolppong. The cross success percentages are 14.2% and 8.0% in Daeryukppong and Morus tiliaefolia, respectively, but it was below 0.3% in Cheongilppong and Keomseolppong.

This study was carried out to find out whether there exists any content variation in 1-deoxynojirimycin (DNJ) among regional and varietal mulberry leaves. HPLC analysis was performed for 22 samples collected from several localities in Korea and Tsushima Islands Japan. The highest content was observed in the Cheongilppong sample collected at Youngchun City, Kyungsangbuk Province (1,882.7 $\mu\textrm{g}$/g DW), whereas lowest content was observed in the Cheongilppong sample collected at Jiniu City, Kyungsangnam Province (395.65 $\mu\textrm{g}$/g DW). In the comparison of regional samples of Kaeryangppong variety, DNJ content was highest in the order of Woniu City (1,460.1) > Boungun (999.85) > Hweongsung-gun (939.12) > Cheongju City (688.78). In case of Cheongilppong, DNJ content was highest in the order of Youngchun City (1.882.8) > Sanchung-gun (1,125.3) > Sunchon City (649.17) > Byunsan-myon (441.54) > Jinju City (395.65). Average content of regional samples was higher in Kaeryangppong (1,021.7 $\mu\textrm{g}$/g DW) than that of Cheongilppong (898.87 $\mu\textrm{g}$/g DW). Average DNJ content of the wild mulberry loaves collected from Cheju Island and Tsushima Island (1,012.9$\mu\textrm{g}$/g DW) was high enough to reach to that of the regional Kaeryangppong samples. In the comparison among varietal samples collected in Suwon, the highest DNJ content was observed in YK209 (768.16 $\mu\textrm{g}$/g DW), amongst overall low DNJ content of the varietal samples. Considering a few pieces of information from our data, DNJ content appears not to be influenced solely by annual temperature of the planted areas.

In this study, mulberry fruit juice was added with a salad dressing to compare and analyze the effect of different amounts of mulberry fruit juice(0, 10, 20, and 30%) and different breeds($Cheongilppong$ $and$ $Gwasang$ $2$) on the physicochemical qualities of salad dressing. As incresing of mulberry fruit juice added to, pH of the dressing decrease. Among the examined groups, $Gwasang$ $2$ were better than the others. Viscosity and sweetness of the dressing increased by the amount of mulberry fruit juice were added. DPPH radical scavenging activity of the control group was 15.60% while mulberry fruit juice salad dressing ranged from 19.73-50.83%. DPPH radical scavenging activity of $Gwasang$ $2$ group were higher than that of $Cheongilppong$ group. Color L and b value decreased as the amount of mulberry fruit juice added more, too value increase. The sensory property results showed that the salad dressing with 30% mulberry fruit juice was rated best. It was also preferred most. These results suggest 30% of mulberry fruit juice with $Gwasang$ $2$ are the best substitution ratio for salad dressing.

Nutritional and functional components, and physicochemical characteristics of mulberry fruits from Morus alba L. cultivars, including Daejappong, Iksuppong, Daesungppong, Yongppong, Cheongilppong, Gwasang 1 and Gwasang 2, were investigated and compared. Among the 7 mulberry cultivars examined, Iksuppong, Cheongilppong and Gwasang 2 had higher contents of nitrogen free extract, total sugar and total reducing sugar, than other mulberry cultivars, while contents of protein, fat, and fiber were lowest. Gwasang 1 and Daesungppong had the highest content of total phenolic, total flavonoid, and total anthocyanin. Daesungppong, Gwasang 1 and Gwasang 2 had higher contents of C3G and C3R than other mulberry cultivars, although C3R content of Cheongilppong was the highest. Four flavonoid contents varied among of 7 mulberry cultivars. Contents of two major flavonoids, rutin and quercetin, were the highest in Gwasang 2, while Iksuppong and Cheongilppong were the lowest. Contents of piceid and 4-prenylmoracin were the highest in Daesungppong and Cheongilppong, respectively. Cheongilppong of mulberrys had the highest content of GABA. Iksuppong and Gwasang 2 with moderate weight and dark color had higher contents of total soluble solid than other mulberry cultivars, while contents of titratable acidity were lower. Our results provide useful information on nutritional and functional constituents of mulberry fruits according to cultivars, and their physicochemical and processing properties.

Mulberry leaves contain many natural components and are considerable resource for natural antiokidants. The antioxidant effect of 'Cheongilppong' collected from Chuncheon, Suwon and Wanju regions were investigated with minilum L-100 device and ARAW-KIT (anti-radical ability of water-soluble substance), in comparison to the ascorbic acid. The measurement parts were mulberry leaves collected from different areas and some kinds of mulberry branches. We obtained that even if samples were same variety, antioxidant capacity of those showed different results according to collected regions. Also, antioxidant effect of mulberry leaves were higher than that of branches. The order of antioxidant effect in Spring was Chuncheon > Suwon > Wanju. The antioxidant effect of mulberry leaves collected from Chuncheon, Suwon and Wanju regions of just before the coloration stage with anthocyanin in fruits were 3627.5 nmol, 2620.0 nmol 1360.7 nmol (ascorbic acid equivalents), respectively. In Autumn, the antioxidant effect and hardness quality of mulberry leaves were increased gradually until just before fallen leaves stage. Therefore, we concluded that being the most suitable period for collecting mulberry leaves as a antiokidant resource is from the latter part of May to the first ten days of June.

This study was carried out to investigate the mineral content in the regional, varietal and seasonal mulberry leaves. On average, mulberry leaf samples contained minerals in the order of potassiumi phosphorus, calcium, magnesium, iron and so on (2.494 g/100 g, 2.255 g/100 g, 1.835 g/100 g, 0.627 g/100 g, 0.0245 g/100 g DW, respectively). Calcium content was 19-fold and 4-fold higher than that of green tea and spinach, respectively, suggesting that mulberry loaves appear to be a calcium-rich food source. In the comparison of geographic samples of Cheongilppong variety, calcium bevel was highest in Youngchun sample (2.477 g/100 g) and highest potassium level in Suwon sample (2.962 g/100 g). In the geographic samples of YK209 variety, Jinju-City sample was highest in calcium content (1.509 g/100 g). Among wild mulberry loaves collected from Cheju Island and Tsushima, potassium level was highest in Bongge-dong, Cheiu City (3.865 g/100 g) and calcium level in Mitshshima Town, Tsushima (2.948 g/100 g). In the comparison of varietal samples collected in Suwon at the mulberry field of Dept. of Sericulture & entomology, Shinkwangppong variety was highest in the potassium levels although Keryangppong and Shinkwangppong were higher in calcium revel. In the comparison of seasonal samples of Cheongilppong, there was a rough trend of increase in some minerals up to July (e.g., calcium rind )potassium). Finding of the highest calcium and potassium contents in the wild mulberry (3.865 g/100 g and 2.948 g/100 g, respectively) rather than in the cultivated ones warrant that more focus should be paid to wild mulberry leaves to utilize their minerals effciently.

Recently mulberry has been commercialized but it loses its marketability rapidly after harvest. In this study, characteristics of mulberry were examined at different storage temperature after harvest using the typical Korean mulberry cultivars. Postharvest spoilage fungi on the various mulberry cultivars, Cheongilppong, Daeshim, and Gwasang No. 2 was observed 2, 2, and 1 d, respectively, after harvest at 28℃. However, at 4℃, the day was 8, 7, and 4 d, respectively. At 28℃ storage condition, the weight loss behavior of mulberry did not showed significantly different among them. However, at 4℃ storage condition, mulberry Cheongilppong loses its weight rapidly compared to Daeshim and Gwasang No. 2. Sugar content of mulberry stored at 4℃ was nearly constant, but stored at 28℃ decreased with storage time. The acidity of mulberry slightly decreased with storage time and then increased. Juice leakage of frozen mulberry leaked abruptly within 6 h from the fruit body and then flattened at 25℃. The results of our study, the postharvest characteristics of mulberry were affected by mulberry cultivar and need to further study to increase the shelf life.

The objective of this research was to develop the functional material of water and 60% ethanol extracts from nine kinds of mulberry fruits (Morus alba L.) that influence the inhibitory activity on angiotensin-converting enzyme, xanthine oxidase, ${\alpha}$-amylase, and ${\alpha}$-glucosidase. The total phenolic contents in the water extracts were over 2 mg/g in two species (Cheongilppong and Kangwon III) and five species (Daeyoupchosaeng, Cheongilppong, Kangwon III, Hihak, and Cataneo) of 60% ethanol extracts. The inhibitory activity against the angiotensin-converting enzyme was determined with them. Baekwoon III was $90.9{\pm}4.5%$ in the water extracts, and Hihak was $81.8{\pm}4.5%$ in the 60% ethanol extracts. The inhibitory activity of Kuksang 20 against xanthin oxidase was about 10% in the water extracts, and Cataneo was $21.4{\pm}2.3%$ in the 60% ethanol extracts. Six of the species (Daeyoupchosaeng, Suwonppong, Cheongilppong, Kangwon III, Hihak, and Kuksang 20) in the water extracts showed inhibitory activities against ${\alpha}$-amylase, as 100%, respectively. The inhibitory activity of ${\alpha}$-glucosidase was determined for these nine species. Four species (Baekwoon III, Daeyoupchosaeng, Cheongilppong, Kangwon III, Hihak, and Kuksang 20) in the water extracts and three species (Daechoukmyeun, Kangwon III, and Kuksang 20) in the 60% ethanol extracts showed inhibition of over 20%. The results revealed strong biological activity in spite of little total phenolic contents. These water and 60% ethanol extracts with high-quality biological activity from various mulberry fruits (Morus alba L.) are expected to represent good candidates for the development of antihypertentive and antidiabetes sources.

The recovery of mulberry from a late frost (April 24 to 27) was investigated for four varieties : Kaeryangppong, Cheongilppong, and Jamsang 21 in Cheongju area, Chungbuk Province. 1. Unfavourable meteorlogical conditions for recovery of mulberry followed the early late frost : lower than normal temperatures in mid-April, less sunshine in early and mid-Jay, lower temperatures and early and less precipitation in late-May, and less precipitation than normal in early June. 2. Jamsang 21 grew to the 2-3 leaf stage first, at which time Kaeryangppong and Jamsang 22 were at the 1-2 leaf stage, and Cheongilppong was at the swallow-bill shape-1 leaf stage. 3. The first leaf stage occurred on May 12, 15 days after the frost and, 19 days later in an average year. The difference lasted until the harvesting season, the 6 leaf stage. 4. Young shoot length was 50-58% of that in 1989. Kaeryangppong was the shortest at 50% and the Jamsang 21 highest at 58% of 1989 values. 5. Leaf number was 52-67% that in 1989. Kaeryangppong was the lowest at 52% and the Jamsang 21 highest at 67% of 1989 values. 6. Young shoot and leaf weight was 44-63%, and leaf weight 39-61%, compared to 1989. Kaeryangppong and Cheongilppong were the lowest, Jamsang 21 and Jamsang 22 were the highest, compared to 1989 data. 7. Young shoot length was 50-58% compared with 1989. Kaeryangppong was the lowest as 50%, the highest Jamsang 21 as 58%. 8. Number of leaf was 52-67% compared with 1989. Kearyangppong was the lowest as 52%, the highest Jamsang 21 as 67%. 9. Young shoot and leaf wight was 44-63%, and leaf weight was 39-61% compared with 1989. Kaeryangppong was the lowest, lowest, Jamsang 21 was the highest, Cheongilppong was similar with Kaeryangppong and Jamsang 22 was similar with Jamsang 21. 10. Rate of young shoot and leaf weight to total weight decreased from 75% in 1989 to 55-61% in 1990. Rate of laef weight to young shoot decreased from 72-82% to 67-71%, showed 5-10% decrease. 11. Leaf yield decreased highly in Jamsang 22 as 57% compared with 1989. Kearyangppong 61%, Jamsang 21 64%, Cheonglppong 72%. Leaf yield was 827kg/10g in Kaeryangppong, 1, 000-1, 050kg/10a in the other varieties.
