In this study, the antioxidative effects, inhibitory effects on tyrosinase and elastase and components of Fagopyrum esculetum extracts were investigated. Fagopyrum esculetum used for this study is hulls and dehulled seeds. The free radical(1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical, DPPH) scavenging activities($FSC_{50}$) and reactive oxygen species(ROS) scavenging activities($OSC_{50}$) of extract/fractions from Fagopyrum esculetum were measured. The aglycone($3.5{\pm}0.0{\mu}g/mL$) and ethyl acetate fractions($0.2{\pm}0.1{\mu}g/mL$) of hulls showed the most effective scavenging activities. The protective effects on the rose-bengal sensitized photohemolysis of human erythrocytes were investigated. The ethyl acetate fraction exhibited the most prominent cellular protective effect(${\tau}_{50},\;771.7{\pm}9.9 min$ at 10 ${\mu}g/mL$). The inhibitory effect of aglycone fraction of hull and dehulled seeds on tyrosinase were examined ($53.6{\pm}0.5{\mu}g/mL,\;35.6{\pm}0.4{\mu}g/mL$, respectively). And The inhibitory effect of aglycone fraction of hull and dehulled seeds on elastase were investigated($3.7{\pm}0.4{\mu}g/mL\;and\;6.0{\pm}0.7{\mu}g/mL$ respectively). But 50% ethanol extract rarely exhibited the inhibitory activity on tyrosinase and elastase. (+)-Catechin and (-)-epicatechin were contained in ethyl acetate fraction of dehulled seeds. And ethyl acetate fraction of hull contains flavonoids of hyperin, quercetin, rutin and so on. These results indicate that extract/fractions of Fagopyrum esculentum can function as antioxidants in biological systems, particularly skin exposed to UV radiation by scavenging $^1O_2$ and other ROS, and protect cellular membranes against ROS. Fagopyrum esculentum extract could be used as a new cosmeceutical for whitening and anti-wrinkle products.

Korean cultivars of buckwheat(Fagopyrum esculentum Moench.) was crossed with Canadian cultivars in order to improve seed yield as well as leaf production of buckwheat for using as food and medicine. The agronomic characteristics and rutin contents of F$_2$ hybrids are investigated for further selection of superior lines. Dry weight per plant was the highest in a line 1110(6.71g) and leaf weight per plant was the highest in a line 1110(1.91g). Hybrid seeds were 0.55 - 0.70cm long and 0.37 - 0.47cm wide on average. 100 seeds weight ranged from 2.57g to 3.58g. Line 1076 produced the longest seeds(0.70cm) and line 1186 was the longest in seed width. Line 1196 showed the highest 100 seeds weight(3.58g). The highest frequency of the LWR(length/width rate) was 0.66~0.70, indicating that seed shape of the hybrids was mostly oval. Line 1087 showed the highest contents of rutin(77.26ppm). Lines 1090 and 1181 contained respectively rutin of 54.76ppm and 54.35ppm in the seeds. From the yield and rutin point of view, the most superior lines was line 1087 among the lines used for this study.

This experiments were carried out to develop for food in some plants seeding. Plant materials were Raphanus sativus, Perilla frutescens var. acuta, Perilla frutescens var. japonica, Scutellaria baicalensis, Angelica dahurica, Angelica gigas, Ligusticum acutilobum, Peucedanum japonicum, Platycodon grandiflorum, Codonopsis lanceolata, Allium monanthum and Fagopyrum esculentum. The results obtained are summarized as follows ; germination rate was the highest in Raphanus sativus and germination vigor was excellent in Perilla frutescens var. acuta Total overall acceptability was the best in Perilla frutescens var. acuta

Three new compounds were isolated from the methanol extracts of buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum) hull, and their structures were determined to be 6,7-dihydroxy-3,7-dimethyl-octa-2(Z),4(E)-dienoic acid (1), 6,7-dihydroxy-3,7-dimethyl-octa-2(E),4(E)-dienoic acid (2), and 4,7-dihydroxy-3,7-dimethyl-octa-2(E),5(E)-dienoic acid (3) by NMR and MS spectroscopic analyses. These compounds at $500{\mu}g$ concentration showed antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, demonstrated by the paper disc method.

We analyzed the nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequence of common buckwheat, Fagopyrum esculentum and tartary buckwheat, F. tataricum. The diversity of the nucleotides and haplotypes, Tajima's D, and Fu's Fs was analyzed and compared among the varieties of common buckwheat and tartary buckwheat. The diversity of nucleotides and haplotypes indicated that the buckwheat populations had undergone rapid population expansion but D and Fs did not support their expansion statistically. The phylogenetic analysis of ITS sequences did not clearly establish the phylogenetic relationships between the varieties of common buckwheat. The In/Del sequence of ITS-1 region could, therefore, be used as a DNA marker to distinguish raw or manufactured products derived from common buckwheat and tartary buckwheat.

Buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum), which is a traditional Korean crop, has been known as a health food due to its rich nutrition. This study was conducted to evaluate the change in flavonoid content of flowers and seeds during post-flowering growth of Korean tartary buckwheat variety 'Hwanggeummiso', with the aim of providing basic data for the development of functional food and feed additive. Tartary buckwheat took 69 and 99 days from the sowing date to reach the flowering and maturity stages, respectively. As a result of examining the flavonoid components of each part of tartary buckwheat, chlorogenic acid, rutin, and isoquercitrin of flowers increased from the flowering period on 22 May (0 days after flowering) to 42 days after flowering, while quercetin increased until 21 days after flowering and then decreased thereafter. In seeds, chlorogenic acid, rutin, and isoquercitrin were most abundant at the time of seed-bearing on 14 days after flowering, and showed a decreasing tendency thereafter. On the other hand, quercetin showed a tendency to increase until 21 days after flowering and then decrease. Overall, the flavonoid content was higher in flowers than in seeds, with rutin being particularly prominent. Based on this, the possibility as food materials and feed additives was confirmed using buckwheat produced in Korea.

메밀(Fagopyrum esculentum Moench)은 마디풀과(Polygonaceae) 메밀속 (Fagopyrum)으로 약 20종이 있으며, 전 세계 인류 역사와 함께해 왔으며, 오랫동안 사랑을 받아 온 작물이다. 메밀 생태형 분류는 늦게 파종할수록 종실 수량이 떨어지는 여름메밀, 반대로 늦게 파종할수록 종실 수량이 증가하는 가을메밀과 중간형 메밀이 있다. 여름메밀 대표품종은 양절메밀, 양절메밀2호가 있다. '양절메밀'은 춘파·하파 재배가 가능한 여름메밀 품종으로, 1994년 육성되어 장려 품종으로 결정되었다. '양절메밀'의 특성은 유한생육 초형으로, 조숙·단간·다수성 이며, 꽃색은 흰색이며 종자는 흑색이다. 성숙일수는 60-64일로 짧으며, 성숙 후에도 탈립이 강하고, 경장은 단간으로, 도복에 강한 편이다. 그 후 수량성이 증가된 '양절메밀 2호'가 육성되었다. 양절메밀2호는 대립종자로 종자가 흑갈색이며 천립중도 29.5g으로 양절메밀보다 무겁다. 가을메밀로는 대산메밀, 다원 및 순백이 육성되었다. 싹용인 '대산메밀'은 줄기가 연홍색이고 종자가 갈색이었다. '대산메밀'은 가을메밀 품종으로 가을 재배에 적합하다. 경장은 중장간종이며, 생육 일수는 양절메밀보다 약간 늦은 중생종이다. 메밀싹 수율이 높아 새싹 재배에 적합한 것으로 나타났다.
