The present study collected 18 kinds of commercially circulated liquid Sansuyu (Corni fructus) in pouch form and conducted comparative analysis on markings and physicochemical characteristics in order to utilize this information as a base material for the development of Sansuyu liquid products. The most abundant valid substance was morroniside, followed by loganin and cornin, in that order. Total concentration of valid substances in Cornus fruit products produced in the Gurye region was 168.50 mg/100 g, which was significantly higher than the overall average of 130.89 mg/100 g. There were seven (1st) and seven (2nd) kinds that contained more morroniside than the overall average, six (1st) and four (2nd) kinds with more loganin than the overall average, and eight (1st) and one (2nd) kinds with more cornin than the overall average. There were also five types in which no loganin was detected. There were significant differences in the valid substances of most products according to production period. Overall, these results show that processing method standardization research on extraction conditions is needed to produce liquid Sansuyu products of excellent quality.

'Mantari' is a new variety of oyster mushroom for bottle culture. It was bred by crossing monokaryons isolated from 'DM11732' and 'Chunchu-2ho'. The optimum temperature for the mycelial growth was $26{\sim}29^{\circ}C$ on PDA medium, and that for the primordia formation and the growth of fruiting body of 'Mantari' on sawdust media was $18^{\circ}C$ and $16^{\circ}C$. It took 32 days to finish spawn running, 4 days to finish primordia formation, and 3 days to finish fruiting body growth in the bottle culture. The fruitcharacteristics: the pileus was round and gray-black in color, and the stipe was long, thin, and light gray in color. The yield per bottle was 179 g/900 ml and was 5% higher than that of the control variety (Chunchu-2ho). The physical properties of the fruit body were as follows: springiness, cohesive, gumminess, and brittleness of the stipe tissue were 96%, 76%, 160 g, and 15 kg, respectively.

This study was carried out to investigate seedling quality, growth characteristics and yield of hot pepper (Capsicum annum) grown in the open field according to seedling growth periods (SGPs) of 45, 55, 65, 75, and 85 days. Before planting, plant height, node number, leaf area, fresh and dry weight of seedlings were high in longer-SGP treatments, the T/R ratio was high in SGP 45 and SGP 85 treatments compared with other treatments. At 10 weeks after planting, plant height, stem diameter and leaf area of plants treated with SGP 45 and SGP 55 were significantly higher compared to other treatments. Fresh and dry weight of the plant with SGP 45 treatment was greatest, however, the dry matter percentage with SGP 45 was low compared to other treatments. Fruiting number and weight per plant were highest in SGP 45 treatment. Shorter SGP treatments such as 45 and 55 days gave greatly increased total weight of ripened fruit at 18 weeks after planting. Our results showed that SGP for hot pepper grown in the open field influences plant growth parameters and marketable yield, so that SGP 45 to SGP 55 is optimum to cultivate hot pepper plant.

Persimmons on the trees are often exposed to weather condition of cold temperature before harvest, which affects the fruit quality at harvest time and later storage. This study investigated the effect of the harvest season temperature on the storage quality of 'Fuyu' sweet persimmons. Monitoring the temperature changes in the orchard showed five times of cold temperature below the freezing temperature of persimmon, $-2.1^{\circ}C$, in the harvesting period between mid October and mid November with the lowest being as low as $-5.4^{\circ}C$. Among three different harvestings, the tertiary one at mid November showed decreased 'L' value and consistently high 'a' value of color index and high reduction in hardness during 150 days storage of fruits at $0^{\circ}C$ showing freeze-injured symptoms, compared to the first one at mid October and the second one at early November. The fruits of first harvest maintained consistently hard texture with increased 'a' color value probably due to postharvest ripening. The tertiary harvest exhibited increase in fructose and glucose contents and decrease in sucrose of the fruits, being very different from the first and secondary harvests which maintained constant level of all three free sugars. Mid November with possible sudden temperature drop is unsuitable period for harvesting sweet persimmons in the quality at harvest and later storage, and thus the harvest should be designed to be done before that time.

Mycological characteristics of Phomopsis citri isolates obtained from blighted twigs of citrus cultivation areas in Jeju island were all identified as Phomopsis citri known as the anamorph stage of Diaporthe citri. Pycnidia the isolates sized from 112.2 to 614.4${\mu}m$ (av. 328.8${\mu}m$) and shaped conical to lenticulata in black. Two types of phialospores, ${\alpha}$-and ${\beta}$-spores were observed from pycnidia. The ${\alpha}$-spores were hyaline, unicellula, fusiform to ellipsoidal and sized 4.7~8.7 1.9 ${\times}$ 3.5${\mu}m$ (av. 6.7 ${\times}$ 2.3 ${\mu}m$). The ${\beta}$-spores were hyaline, unicellula, filiform, curved and often strongly hooked and sized 13.2~27.1 ${\times}$ 0.8~1.6 ${\mu}m$ (av. 22.1 ${\times}$ 1.0 ${\mu}m$). All isolates grew well and produced abundant pycnidia and spore horns on PDA. In addition, all isolates showed strong pathogenicity to citrus fruit inducing melanose symptoms when artificially inoculated with the pycnidial spores.

Sweet pumpkin is a squash fruit that contains low total solids but is rich in carotene, pectin, mineral salts, vitamins, and other substances beneficial to health. An attempt was made to develop a value-added food product; sweet pumpkin powders (SPP) were incorporated into a model system of noodles as a healthy food ingredient, and selected physicochemical properties and consumer preferences were determined. Elevated SPP concentration was associated with increased pH, soluble solids, and turbidity; however, moisture absorption decreased (P<0.05). Increasing amounts of SPP significantly reduced both raw and cooked noodle brightness (L*); however, yellowness (b*) appeared to increase. In addition, 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging activity increased significantly (P<0.05). The consumer acceptance test indicated that incorporation of 10% SPP to the formulation is recommended to take advantage of the health benefits of SPP without major sacrificing the quality acceptance of consumers.

This study was conducted to ferment high quality vinegar by using Omija fruit. Strains of bacteria producing acetic acid were isolated from spoiled Omija wine (OV1 and OV2) and traditional rice vinegar (RA). The bacterium was from optimally-oxidized Omija wine containing 6.0% ethanol and from Omija vinegar with 5.21% acetic acid by 14 days of fermentation. The Omija vinegar got the highest sensory score (5.80) among several commercial vinegars. The Omija vinegar showed a potent antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli, and Pseudomonas fluorescens by the paper disc test, while Omija wine had limited antibacterial activity against S. aureus and P. fluorescens. The diameter of the clear zone formed by the paper disc test using Omija vinegar was not less than 9.5 mm. The DPPH free radical-scavenging activity of Omija wine was higher than that from Omija water extracts. The nitrite scavenging ability of Omija wine (36.98% of all nitrites present) and vinegar (31.14%) was higher than that from Omija water extracts (22.53%). Omija vinegar exhibited strong antibacterial and antioxidant activities. In conclusion, we prepared high quality vinegar from dried Omija.

The inhibitory effects of radish juice on the mutagenicities of cigarette smoke condensate (CSC), methanol extract of charred part of fried or broiled saury pike (MECS) and 2-aminofluorene (2-AF) were examined by the use of Ames assay toward Salmonella typhimurium TA 98 strain. Radish juice exhibited inhibition percentage of about 100, 100 and 87 on the mutagenicities of CSC, two kinds of MECS and 2-AF, respectively. Except for juices of cabbage and leek, radish juice has inhibited more effectively the mutagenicity of CSC than other fruit or vegetable juices studied. Inhibitory effect of radish juice might be originated from the components with molecular weight above 50,000 and decreased sharply in 5 min by heat treatment at $100^{\circ}C$, but hardly changed at low and moderate storage temperatures such as $4^{\circ}C,\;10^{\circ}C,\;25^{\circ}C\;and\;35^{\circ}C$ for about 2 weeks. Precipitate obtained from ammonium sulfate saturation from 30 to 80% had inhibitory effect on the mutagenicity of CSC. Extracts from 3 bands of non-denaturing gel of $30{\sim}80%$ amnonium sulfate precipitate have exhibited the inhibitory effects on the mutagenicity of CSC.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of preprocessing the transmitted energy spectrum data on development of a robust model to predict the sugar content in intact apples. The spectrum data were measured from 120 Fuji apple samples conveying at the speed of 2 apples per second. Computer algorithms of preprocessing methods such as MSC, SNV, first derivative, OSC and their combinations were developed and applied to the raw spectrum data set. The results indicated that correlation coefficients between the transmitted energy values at each wavelength and sugar contents of apples were significantly improved by the preprocessing of MSC and SNV in particular as compared with those of no-preprocessing. SEPs of the prediction models showed great difference depending on the preprocessing method of the raw spectrum data, the largest of 1.265%brix and the smallest of 0.507% brix. Such a result means that an appropriate preprocessing method corresponding to the characteristics of the spectrum data set should be found or developed for minimizing the prediction errors. It was observed that MSC and SNV are closely related to prediction accuracy, OSC is to number of PLS factors and the first derivative resulted in decrease of the prediction accuracy. A robust calibration model could be d3eveloped by the combined preprocessing of MSC and OSC, which showed that SEP=0.507%brix, bias=0.0327 and R2=0.8823.
