Heteroplasmic rice plastid transformant was generated using suspension cells as bombardment materials. PCR analyses confirmed incorporation of aadA and cp4-epsps genes into the rice plastid genome by homologous recombination events via the flanking sequences of the trnI and trnA. Transplastomic calli were actively proliferated when cultured on AAM2 medium supplemented with various concentrations (500-3000 mg/L) of streptomycin in dark condition, and transplastomic suspension cells showed resistance to nonselective herbicide, glyphosate. Through 'agarose pie selection' method, heteroplastomic calli, containing considerably high level of transplastome and expressing the CP4 EPSPS protein, were obtained. They were further regenerated to green shoots with healthy roots.

Green Tea consists of 15-30% catechins (a type of polyphenol), which act as super antioxidants, inhibitory action against aging process. Antioxidants fight radical-free oxygen, an agent which can begin the process of cancer by damaging essential body chemicals and harming DNA. This study was peformed to develop the elderly diet using Green Tea as an inhibitory action against aging process. Nokchaborijook (Baley gruel added rice powder and Green Tea) was manufactured by various levels of Green Tea(1, 4, 7%) and the grinding period(15, 30, 45 sec). The optimum levels of added Green Tea and grinding periods on Nokchaborijook were determined with the results of sensory evaluation by response surface methodology and analysis of composition. The Anti-oxidant Vitamin A, C, E and Flavonoid were increased with increased levels of Green Tea and grinding periods be decreased. As the levels of Green Tea and grinding periods were increased, the green color and penetrated force became stronger. Among the sensory attributes, Bitterness, Green Tea Flavor and Hashness were greater depending on increasing Green Tea. Jujube flavor was greater relying on decreasing Green Tea. Greenness and spreadability of particles were increased as both the amounts of Green Tea and the grinding period were increased. This result was used to determine the optimum conditions of adding levels of Green Tea and grinding periods. The optimum conditions of Nokchaborijook was established as adding of 5.8% Green Tea grinded for 15 seconds.

The effect of the addition of dough ripe stage rice (DRSR) and yellow ripe stage rice (YRSR) on the quality characteristics of Backsulgi was investigated. The DRSR and YRSR addition ratio of 30% was selected by preliminary sensory evaluation study for which backsulgi was prepared with DRSR added to full ripe stage rice (FRSR, control) as the weight ratio of 0, 20, 30 and 50%. The pasting properties of 30% added DRSR and YRSR flours, analyzed with rapid viscosity analyzer (RVA), were compared with FRSR flour. The RVA values of holding, breakdown, final viscosities were higher in 30% DRSR and YRSR flours than in control. Backsulgi prepared with 30% DRSR and YRSR showed lower moisture content along with higher greenness and yellowness than control. As a result of analysis with texture analyzer, adhesiveness, springiness, cohesiveness, chewiness and resilience were lower in backsulgis with 30% DRSR and YRSR than in control. In the sensory evaluation, backsulgis with 30% DRSR and YRSR were assessed as having more intensive green color, and more greenish and delicious taste than control. Furthermore, backsulgi with 30% DRSR showed higher score of overall acceptability than 30% YRSR (p<0.05), and not significantly different score with control (p>0.05). Therefore, the addition of 30% DRSR could give favorable color and flavor to backsulgi.

This study was carried out to investigate the improvement effect of soil fertility by incorporation of GMC(green manure crops) at rice cropping after cultivation GMC such as the barley for alternative rye in paddy field over the past two years(2006~2007). Plots, which consisted of incorporation time of GMC as rye; heading stage, barley; heading stage, heading stage of rye and 10days after heading stage were divided by amount of applied rates; standard fertilizer fertilization, diagnosis fertilization and non-fertilization. we investigated change of soil physico-chemical properties, degree of decomposition on GMC in soil, growth and yield potential. The obtained results were summarized as follows. The fresh weight of GMC at incorporation time on heading stage of rye, heading stage and 10days after heading stage of barley were $2,715,\;2,352,\;2,867kg\;10a^{-1}$ respectively. Content of total nitrogen at three incorporation times was 1.31, 1.46, 1.38% and the C/N ratio were 33.4, 28.7, and 34.6, respectively. Some soil physical properties, such as soil hardness and bulk density tended to decrease with incorporation of GMC, while surface soil depth and porosity were increased. Some soil chemical properties, such as content of exchangeable cations and cation exchangeable capasity(CEC) were increased with incorporation of GMC compared with before experiment. Rice yields was increased 3~9% in diagnosis application plots on application of barley compared with control($559kg\;10a^{-1}$) and incorporation of barley caused to improve perfect kernel ratio 73.6~78.7% in appearance characteristics of brown rice compared with cotrol(73.0%). It was found that incorporation with 10days after heading stage of barley was more effective to reduce chemical nitrogen fertilizer and to improve soil fertility.

Agrobacterium-mediated gene transfer has recently been developed to improve rice transformation. In this study, 3 different transformation methods were tested including soaking, co-cultivation, and vacuum infiltration. Agrobacterium tumefaciens GV3101 harboring the binary vector pGreen:: LeGSNOR was used in this experiment. This study aimed to identify the most appropriate method for transferring LeGSNOR into rice. Vacuum infiltration of the embryonic calli for 5 min in Ilpum resulted in high transformation efficiency based on confirmation by PCR, RT-PCR, and qRT-PCR analyses. In conclusion, we described the development of an efficient transformation protocol for the stable integration of foreign genes into rice; furthermore, the study results confirmed that PCR is suitable for efficient detection of the integrated gene. The vacuum infiltration system is a potentially useful tool for future studies focusing on transferring important genes into rice seed calli, and may help reduce time and effort.

The plastid transformation approach offers a number of unique advantages, including high-level transgene expression, multi-gene engineering, transgene containment, and a lack of gene silencing and position effects. The extension of plastid transformation technology to monocotyledonous cereal crops, including rice, bears great promise for the improvement of agronomic traits, and the efficient production of pharmaceutical or nutritional enhancement. Here, we report a promising step towards stable plastid transformation in rice. We produced fertile transplastomic rice plants and demonstrated transmission of the plastidexpressed green fluorescent protein (GFP) and aminoglycoside 3′-adenylyltransferase genes to the progeny of these plants. Transgenic chloroplasts were determined to have stably expressed the GFP, which was confirmed by both confocal microscopy and Western blot analyses. Although the produced rice plastid transformants were found to be heteroplastomic, and the transformation efficiency requires further improvement, this study has established a variety of parameters for the use of plastid transformation technology in cereal crops.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to simplify the traditional manufacturing method of Jeungpyun by developing a new process for Jeungpyun preparation using meringue and to also investigate the quality characteristics of Jeungpyun made with green tea powder. Methods: The Jeungpyun was manufactured as 4 sample preparations (Jeungpyun: J; Jeungpyun+0.5% green tea: J+0.5% GT; Jeungpyun+1% green tea: J+1% GT; and Jeungpyun+1.5% green tea: J+1.5% GT) through mixing rice flour, meringue, green tea powder (0-1.5%), dry yeast, water, and milk, steaming for 4 min at $180^{\circ}C$ and 3 min at $220^{\circ}C$, and then standing for 1 hr at room temperature. The quality characteristics of Jeungpyun were evaluated based on physicochemical properties, total mold, texture analysis, and sensory evaluation. Results: The pH of Jeungpyun batter was significantly lower in J+1.0% GT and J+1.5% GT than J. The specific gravity, weight, volume, and specific volume of J+0.5% GT and J+1% GT was not significantly different, as compared to J. In color, L value decreased and a and b value increased based on the increase of green tea powder. The antifungal activity was the highest in J+1.5% GT, followed by J+1.0% GT, J+0.5% GT, and J, in order. Samples with added green tea powder showed decreased hardness, as compared with J; its effect was significant in J+1.0% GT and J+1.5% GT after storage for 1 day. In sensory evaluation, the color of Jeungpyun was darkened by the addition of green tea powder. The egg smell and hardness significantly decreased by addition of green tea powder. Based on quantitative description analyses, overall acceptability was the highest in J+1% GT. Conclusion: Therefore, 1% green tea powder was the optimal amount for preparing Jeungpyun with meringue. For simplification of the traditional manufacturing method, Jeungpyun could be produced with meringue and green tea powder, which has potent physiological activities.

Viral infections and root growth were examined to elucidate the relationship between viral resistance and root growth in 26 Korean hulless barley cultivars. Viral resistance was estimated in experimental filed of Honam agricultural research institute for 3 years. Length and number of seminal and adventitious roots were examined for evaluation of root growth in both field and green-house conditions 30 days after seeding. Dominant viral infection occurred in Korean hulless barley by Barley yellow mosaic virus (BaYMV) in fields; however, susceptible cultivars were infected by either BaYMV, Barley mild mosaic virus (BaMMV) or both. Only four cultivars, including Donghanchalssalbori, Kwangwhalssalbori, Namhossalbori and Naehanssalbori, presented stable resistance to viral infections. Susceptible cultivars to viral infection in fields showed shorter seminal root length and fewer adventitious root number than resistant cultivars. Resistant cultivars showed better root growth and significant difference in adventitious root length in green house conditions. Increase in the number of seminal roots in resistant cultivars was derived from decreased damage of roots by the viral infection compared to the susceptible cultivars.
