  • We collected and examined germplasm resources of lettuces, edible chrysanthemums and mallows for organic farmers. We found that 3 genotypes (OL-51, OL-52, and OL-63) are suitable for organic cultivation. The main use of treatment for grey mold among eco-friendly pest control methods is helpful to increase efficiency of seed-gathering after collecting and evaluating a total of 64 kinds of lettuces-collected 43 South Korea local varieties, 8 kinds cultivated by the Highland Agriculture Research Center, 4 kinds of cultivated lettuces, and 9 kinds for sales- to choose appropriate kinds of lettuces for organic cultivation in South Korea. We chose those with more than 300 leaves (OC-18, OC-44, and OC-51) after evaluation of yield characteristics of a total of 62 edible chrysanthemums. We covered each genotype of seed of edible chrysanthemums when gathering the seeds by ourselves so as not to decrease the purity of each genotype. We chosed OM-38, OM-39, and OM-40 for their yield performance and germination rates among the total 41 genotypes of mallows. We selected 9 genotypes of lettuces, editable chrysanthemums and mallows with possibility of organic cultivation and found that they can be used permanently through self seed-gathering on organic farms.

  • 원예산물의 저온저장중 부패방지를 위한 천연항균제 개발의 일환으로 식용 가능한 식물을 채집하여 E. coli K 12, B. subtilis K KCTC 1028 및 딸기부패균에 대한 항균활성을 조사하였다. 사철 쑥, 가죽나무 잎, 초피 잎, 적송 잎, 뽕 잎, 씀바귀, 마늘의 즙액은 E. coli와 B. subtilis에 대하여 높은 항균활성을 보였다. 이들 식물체 즙액으로부터 n-hexane, ethyl ace떠te, chloroform 및 물로 용매분획한 분획물로 항균성을 재검색한 결과, 사철쑥, 가죽나무 잎, 적송 잎, 씀바귀의 ethyl acetate 분획과 초피 잎과 마늘의 모 든 분획에서 비교적 높은 향균활성을 보였으며 가죽나무 잎의 ethyl acetate 분획 이 가장 높은 항균활성(6 nun)을 보였다. 한편 딸기의 저온저장중인 과육으로부터 두 종의 부패 세균을 분리하 여 각각 Staphylococcus sp. TG-IOI과 Staphylococcus sp. TG-I02 로 동정하였다. 이들 균주에 대한 항균성을 조사한 결과, 가죽나 무 잎의 ethyl acetate 분획에서 두 균주에 대하여 가장 높은 저 해효과(각각 6 mm, 7 nun)를 보였다.

  • We investigated traditional knowledge about ethnobotanical uses around national parks in the northern areas of Province Gyeongsangbuk-do, with the focus on the Sobeaksan National Park area. Interviews were carried out to 138 residents at 42 places from 7 counties and/or cities, and verified species and usage information were categorized by taxonomic groups, usage, and used parts. The ethnobotanical species of the regions consisted of a total of 277 taxa: 244 species, 3 subspecies, 28 varieties, and 2 forma in 213 genera of 79 families. The significant native plants included one Endangered Species (Paeonia obovata Max.) and four endemic species (Salix hallaisanensis H. Lev., Aconitum pseudolaeve Nakai, Paulownia coreana Uyeki, and Cirsium setidens (Dunn) Nakai, Sasa coreana Nakai). About 17 Approved Species for Delivering Overseas designated by Korea Ministry of Environment have been also traditionally valuable in the regions. The main usage of the plants were edible (185 taxa) and medicinal (175 taxa). Leaves were most commonly used parts (109 taxa), followed by stems (73 taxa), fruits (69 taxa), roots (67 taxa), and wholes (57 taxa). The traditional usage of plants were diverse as those useful parts. Leaves, fruits and seeds were used as edible and medicinal; sprouts (young shoots) were mainly used as edible; but roots and flowers were used as medicinal. The study does not only provides examples of traditional uses of native plants, but also facilitates sustainable managements and developments of ethnobotanical knowledge for the contemporary society.

  • Ruspolia differens (Serville) (Orthoptera: Tettigoniidae) is a highly valued edible grasshopper species in Africa. However, the effects of plant diets on lipid content and fatty acid composition of R. differens are not well understood. We tested the effects of four diets on the total lipid content and fatty acid composition of R. differens. Sixth instar nymphs of R. differens were reared on one, and mixtures of two, three, and six natural plant inflorescences. Individuals collected from the field constituted a control treatment. We extracted lipids and analyzed the fatty acid methyl esters using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. We analyzed if the total lipid content, body weight, and fatty acid composition differed among diets and between the sexes using two-way ANOVAs and a PERMANOVA model, respectively. The total lipid content and weight of R. differens did not differ among the diets. The nine common fatty acids were palmitic (mean across treatments, 26%), oleic (22%), palmitoleic (18%), linoleic (13%), stearic (7%), myristic (6%), myristoleic (4%), ${\alpha}$-linolenic (2%) and arachidic acid (1%). The composition of fatty acids and the proportion of essential fatty acids significantly differed among the diets. The proportion of essential fatty acids was highest in the control treatment (21%) but low in less diversified (one to three feed) diets (12-13%). This study demonstrates that the fatty acid composition in R. differens can be influenced through diet. Thus, with dietary manipulations, using local plants in Africa, it is possible to produce R. differens with preferred high quality essential fatty acids for human consumption.

  • 식용 감미료 아스파탐은 아미노산 중 하나인 아스파라긴과 페닐알라닌의 합성으로 형성된 것이다. 자당보다 200배 높은 단맛을 내는 단백질 성분으로 당 대체할 수 있는 물질이기에 다이어트 제품으로 사용된다. 동물과 인체에 끼치는 영향에 관한 연구는 잘 되어있지만, 식물 대사에 관한 연구는 된 적이 없다. 본 연구에서 발아된 양파, 콩나물, 칼란코에를 재료로 아스파탐 물질대사 영향을 실험하였다. 발아된 뿌리를 가진 3종류 식물은 1mM 아스파탐을 처리한 초기에는 급속히 성장하는 효과를 나타내어 구성 성분인 아미노산 영향으로 영양분 공급 효과를 보인다. 하지만 4주 동안 처리될 때 측근과 유사한 돌기 증상이 양파에서 목질화된 형태로 나타나고, 빨리 시들은 효과가 콩나물에서 보이며, 뿌리의 노화현상이 12주 된 칼란코에에서 나타난다, 모두 성장 단계를 지나서는 노화 촉진 현상을 보인다. 이것은 구성 성분인 두 종류 아미노산 중에 아스파라긴은 급성장을 유도하는 옥신 발생과 관계가 있다고 보여 주고, 페닐알라닌 효과로 목질화 현상이 나타나는 결과로 생각하여진다.

  • Plant tissue culture and molecular biology techniques are powerful tools of biotechnology that can complement conventional breeding, expedite crop improvement and meet the demand for availability of uniform clones in large numbers. Jatropha curcas Linn., a non-edible, eco-friendly, non-toxic, biodegradable fuel-producing plant has attracted worldwide attention as an alternate sustainable energy source for the future. This review presents a consolidated account of biotechnological interventions made in J. curcas over the decades and focuses on contemporary information and trends of future research.

  • Cotyledonary leaves of tomato cv. Megha were transformed with the hepatitis B virus 's' gene, which encodes surface antigen. Six plant expression cassettes (pHBS, pHER, pEFEHBS, pEFEHER, pSHER and pEFESHER) were used to assay the possible expression levels by agroinfiltration. The maximum transient expression level of 489.5 ng/g D.W. was noted in pEFEHER-infiltrated cotyledonary leaves. Transgenic tomato plants with pEFEHBS and pEFEHER expression cassettes were regenerated and characterized by molecular analysis. The expression of the antigen in the fruits was confirmed by RT-PCR and ELISA analysis. This is the first report on the expression of hepatitis B surface antigen in tomato.
