Hyowon6, a mid-late maturing, good eating quality rice variety with multi-resistance, was developed by the rice breeding team of Pusan National University in 2013. This variety was derived from a cross between Hwayeong (as a multi-resistant parent) and Koshihikari (as a good eating quality parent). Selection by the pedigree breeding method was carried out until the $F_8$ generation. A promising line, JS14-12-36-8-5-3-1-1-1, was developed and designated as HY103 in 2013. This variety headed on August 22, which was 11 days later than that of Hwayeong. The culm length and panicle length of Hyowon6 was 85.7 cm and 21.1 cm, respectively. The number of panicles per hill was 14.5 and the number of grains per panicle was 101.7. The ratio of ripened grain was approximately 92% and the 1,000-grain weight was approximately 21.36 g for brown rice, which were similar to those of Hwayeong. Hyowon6 was moderately resistant to lodging and also to neck blast, leaf blight, and stripe virus. The glossiness value of Hyowon6 was 83, which was considerably higher than that of Hwayeong.

Since a large amount of training data is typically needed to train Deep Neural Networks (DNNs), a parallel training approach is required to train the DNNs. The Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) algorithm is one of the most widely used methods to train the DNNs. However, since the SGD is an inherently sequential process, it requires some sort of approximation schemes to parallelize the SGD algorithm. In this paper, we review various efforts on parallelizing the SGD algorithm, and analyze the computational overhead, communication overhead, and the effects of the approximations.

This is a study for the improvement of the defected elevator spar in operating aircraft. The elevator spar web holes were analyzed to find out the cause of the cracks. The fatigue striations were observed and the cracks occurred by the repetitive stresses during the elevator works. Also the outboard connection structure of the elevator and horizontal stabilizer was more weak shape than the inboard. The design changes were recommended and the analyses were performed to verify the improvement of the changed shapes.

The discharge characteristics of pulse-driven coplanar micro barrier discharges for an ultraviolet (UV) light source using Ne-Xe mixture have been investigated using a two-dimensional fluid simulation at near-atmospheric pressure. The densities of electrons, the radiative excited states, the metastable excited states, and the power loss are investigated with the variations of gas pressure and the gap distance. With a fixed gap distance, the number of the radiative states $Xe^*(^3P_1)$ increases with the increasing driving voltage, but this number shows weak dependency on the gas when that pressure is over 400 Torr. However, the number of the radiative states increases with the increase of the gap distance at a fixed voltage, while the power loss decreases. Therefore, a long gap discharge has higher efficiency for UV generation than does a short gap discharge. A slight change in the electrode tilt angle enhances the number of radiative species 2 or 3 times with the same operation conditions. Therefore, the intensity and efficiency of the UV light source can be controlled independently by changing the gap distance and the electrode structure.

Background: Uric acid levels in urine are measured using urine specimens 24 hours or by uric acid glomerular filtration rate (UAGFR) with spot urine, which additionally requires a blood sample. This study aimed to investigate whether urinary uric acid creatinine ratio (UUACr) obtained by spot urine alone could be recognized as a substitute for UAGFR value, and hyperuricosuria can be screened by UUACr. UUACr is known to vary with age and regional differences. This study focused on the reference value of each value in Korean young populations. Method: We enrolled Korean subjects 1-20 years with normal kidney function, from a single hospital, classified into 5 age groups, 1-5 years, 6-8 years, 9-12 years, 13-15 years, and 16-20 years. We checked spot urine uric acid, creatinine and serum uric acid, creatinine levels on the same day from February 2014 to December 2018. We measured the average of UAGFR and UUACr in each groups. The UUACr cut-off value of the upper 2 standard deviation (SD) of UAGFR were taken. Results: The upper 2 SD of UUACr (mg/mg) and UAGFR (mg/dL) were determined in all age groups. UUACr decreased with grown up (P=0.000), but UAGFR were not statistically different among the groups. UUACr and UAGFR were not significantly different by gender. UUACr and UAGFR were positively correlated; UUACr cut-off value of upper 2 SD UAGFR (0.54 mg/dL) was 0.65 mg/mg in total age. Conclusions: UUACr could potentially be used to screen for hyperuricosuria.

저영향개발은 녹색 기반시설을 이용한 침투, 여과, 저류, 지체 등의 효과를 달성하는 구조적 방식과 집중된 우수 배제 방식을 분산시키는 비구조적 방식이 있다. 국내에서는 저영향개발을 주로 시범사업 수준에서 침투트렌치, 식생수로, 투수성 포장과 같은 일부의 요소기술만 적용하고 있는 실정으로, 비구조적 방법을 이용한 분산식 우수배제 방식을 도입한 사례는 거의 없다. 본 연구에서는 PCSWMM을 이용하여 송산 그린시티 개발 사업에 기존의 집중형 우수 배제 방식과 비구조적 방식을 포함한 저영향개발을 각각 도입하여 홍수 및 침수 저감 효과를 검토하였다. 본 연구에서는 송산 그린시티에 저영향개발 기법을 고려하면서 기존 4개의 주 수로에 2개의 소규모 수로를 추가적으로 고려하였다. 또한, 우수관거는 연장이 길어짐에 따라 관거의 규모가 커지므로 유역 유출부에 인접한 지역은 직접 우수 배제가 되도록 하였고, 우수의 배제 방향을 분산시킴으로써 관거의 규모가 비대해지지 않도록 하였다. 홍수 및 침수 저감 효과는 50년 빈도 확률 강우량과 100년 빈도 확률강우량을 적용하여 검토하였다. 그 결과, 적용된 집중형 우수 배제 방식의 경우에는 50년 빈도 확률강우량 조건에서 48 ha, 100년 빈도 확률강우량에서는 81 ha가 침수되는 것으로 모의가 되었다. 반면, 분산형 우수배제 방식을 포함한 저영향개발을 반영할 경우, 50년 빈도 확률강우량에서 6 ha, 100년 빈도 확률강우량 조건에서는 18 ha가 침수되는 것으로 모의가 되었다. 즉, 분산형 빗물관리를 계획함에 따라 홍수 저감의 효과가 나타나는 것으로 분석되었다.

In this study, we aimed to evaluate the quality of Aralia elata shoots according to different packaging methods during storage at 2℃. The highest level of dehydration and wilting incidences were observed in polypropylene containers with polyvinyl chloride wrap (PP+PVC), and these levels continually increased during the entire storage period, compared to other packaging methods. The overall marketability of A. elata shoot packaged in polyethylene terephthalate container (PET) and PP with the mineral-coted functional warp (PP+F) constantly declined during storage with a similar level of 38.6 and 36.0% at 15 days in storage, respectively. PP with PET cover packaging (PP+PET) showed the lowest decay and wilting rates during the entire storage, and the wilting score at 10th day was 51.9, 58.0, 51.8% suppressed, as compared to PET, PP+PVC, and PP+F, respectively. Consequently PP+PET packaging effectively decreased the deterioration of A. elata and maintained marketability for 10 days of storage at 2℃.

An agar-degrading bacterium was isolated from red seaweed (Gelidium amansii) on a natural seawater agar plate, and identified as Saccharophagus sp. AG21. The ${\beta}$-agarase gene from Saccharophagus sp. AG21 (agy1) was screened by long and accurate (LA)-PCR. The predicted sequence has a 1,908 bp open reading frame encoding 636 amino acids (aa), and includes a glycosyl hydrolase family 16 (GH16) ${\beta}$-agarase module and two carbohydrate binding modules of family 6 (CBM6). The deduced aa sequence showed 93.7% and 84.9% similarity to ${\beta}$-agarase of Saccharophagus degradans and Microbulbifer agarilyticus, respectively. The mature agy1 was cloned and overexpressed as a His-tagged recombinant ${\beta}$-agarase (rAgy1) in Escherichia coli, and had a predicted molecular mass of 69 kDa and an isoelectric point of 4.5. rAgy1 showed optimum activity at $55^{\circ}C$ and pH 7.6, and had a specific activity of 85 U/mg. The rAgy1 activity was enhanced by $FeSO_4$ (40%), KCl (34%), and NaCl (34%), compared with the control. The newly identified rAgy1 is a ${\beta}$-agarase, which acts to degrade agarose to neoagarotetraose (NA4) and neoagarohexaose (NA6) and may be useful for applications in the cosmetics, food, bioethanol, and reagent industries.
