In the process of solar energy conversion into electrical energy using the photoelectrochemical cell containing the sensitizer, rose bengal and supersensitizer. $I^-$, the photocurrent is stabilized and durable. But the long time span of irradiation causes the decrease of photocurrent monotonically. Spectroscopic and electrochemical analyses of rose bengal solution containing $I^-$ revealed that the decrease of concentration of rose bengal was attributed to the reaction of rose bengal in the dark with $I_2$ formed as a result of the possible photocatalytic reaction of rose bengal with $I^-$.

Purpose: This study investigated the quality characteristics and antioxidant effects of Yakju added with rose, camellia, or cockscomb flower during fermentation. Methods: The quality characteristics and antioxidant effects were estimated including pH, amino acidity, total acid, ethanol content, color value, sensory test, electric donating ability, nitrite-scavenging ability, and ferrous ion chelating effect. Results: The pH values of Yakjus added with rose, camellia, or cockscomb flower were decreased after 2 days of fermentation and then increased after 4 days of fermentation, with final pH ranging from 4.15 to 4.27. Total acid content and amino acidity were increased during fermentation. The ethanol content in Yakjus fermented with rose, camellia, or cockscomb flower was rapidly increased after 2 days of fermentation, reaching the maximum content of 19.1% after 8 days of fermentation. In color evaluation, the L values of Yakjus added with rose, camellia, or cockscomb flower did not changes during fermentation, whereas values of a and b were increased. Total phenolic compound contents in Yakjus added with rose, camellia, or cockscomb flower were 0.67, 0.59, and 0.52 mg/mL, respectively. Total flavonoid contents in Yakjus added with rose, camellia, or cockscomb flower were 0.20, 0.09, and 0.26 mg/mL, respectively. In sensory test, the overall acceptability of Yakjus added with cockscomb flower was higher than that of Yakju added with rose or camellia flower. However, the difference was not statistically significant (p<0.05). Electron donating ability and nitrite-scavenging abilities were the highest in Yakjus added with rose flower, whereas ferrous ion chelating effect was the highest in Yakjus added with cockscomb flower. Conclusion: These results indicated that Yakjus added with rose, camellia, or cockscomb flower might have valuable functional properties due to their antioxidant effects.

Electron injection from excited rose bengal into the conduction band of a thin film of SnO$2$, semiconductor was investigated in an electrochemical cell, ITO/SnO$2$/rose bengal, NaClO$4$/Pt. It was observed that urea enhanced the supersensitized photocurrent, followed by the reduction in the photocurrent after a shallow maximum. Spectroscopic analyses of the dye solution containing urea revealed that dye aggregation appeared to be involved in the increased photocurrent, although the concentration of the dye was continuously decreased dye to photochemical reactions.

A rose factory type is a system that enables year-round, planned and mass production of high quality cut-rose. Conversion of a conventional system to a rose factory is essential to increase cut-rose export. Controlling root Bone in culled rose production factory is very important for economic and efficient production of rose. This study was conducted to determine optimum root zone temperature of nutrient solution in single-stemmed rose production system. The optimum temperature of the nutrient solution for growth, photosynthetic and transpiration rates for 'Red Velvet' was $15\~20^{\circ}C$. Whereas the optimum temperature for 'Vital' was $10\~15^{\circ}C$. However, growth was almost sloped at $30^{\circ}C$, resulting in concluding the adaptation of 'Vital' to high temperature was poor as compared with 'Red Velvet'.

Crown gall on rose was observed in greenhouse during year 2003-2005. The disease incidence was up to 28.3% and the disease was the severer in hydrophonics culture than that in soil. The typical gall symptom occurred mainly on the root and crown resulting in poor foliage, stunting, and fewer blossoms. Sixty-three rose cultivars were inoculated with Agrobacterium. tumefaciens isolated from rose crown gall, to evaluate rose cultivar-specific resistance. The size of galls from inoculated rose stems was measured in a greenhouse test. Tumors formed in almost varieties of rose inoculated. Based on the frequency of tumor occurrence and weight of galls formed on the stem of rose, it was shown that 'Little Marble', 'Golden Gate' and 'Rosa Rox-ette' were extremely susceptible to crown gall. Some varieties such as 'Little Silver' appeared to be resistant to the crown gall.

Purpose - In Chinese rose market, Korea competes against Latin American and African countries, but is not so competitive in terms of price and quality, implying the importance of using appropriate marketing strategies. This study aims to examine Chinese rose consumers' recognition and attributes of preference for roses produced in Korea, in order to use the result as baseline data for Korean rose exporters to China and provide implications that help establish a variety of marketing strategies targeting each region, income and age group. Research Design, Data and Methodology - 112 Chinese people were involved and interviewed in Chinese horticulture industry who had participated in 2016 Hortiflorexpo IPM Beijing. Online questionnaire survey was additionally conducted with 533 Chinese living in Korea and China. The Conjoint Analysis was conducted for region, age, and income group of respondents to estimate the relative importance of rose attributes evaluated by each population group and the utility derived from each attribute level. This process aimed to compare respective population groups for the relative importance and utility to derive implications for targeted marketing strategies. Results - The analysis finds that Chinese rose consumers prioritize rose color, followed by price, flowering stage, and flower size in purchasing roses. They prefer red roses most, followed by pink and then yellow. Moreover, they prefer larger roses, and relatively cheaper roses. The analysis reveals they prefer roses in their 20%-flowering stage to more than 40%-flowering stage. Conclusions - Establishing marketing strategies differentiated for each Chinese consumer group is critical in expanding Korean rose export. The analysis finds while Chinese consumers living in Beijing considered rose color and flowering stage more importantly than their counterparts in Shanghai, Chinese consumers living in Shanghai considered rose price and size more importantly than their counterparts living in Beijing. Therefore, establishing marketing strategies based on these attributes of preference in each region is necessary. Mid & low-income consumer groups considered price as the most important factor, and high-income consumer groups considered rose color as the most important one. It is, thus, important to focus on rose color when establishing a marketing strategy with targeting the high-income consumer group.

The efficiency of mtCOI amplication after DNA extraction of benthic harpacticoid Tigriopus japonicus s.l. was tested under different conditions depending on fixative (99% Ethanol, or 4% Formalin) and additional chemicals (Ludox or Rose Bengal). Each experimental group by the fixative was subdivided into four groups, respectively: 1) Control (fixative only), 2) processed with Ludox HS40, 3) processed with Rose Bengal, and 4) processed with both Ludox HS40 and Rose Bengal. For the 99% ethanol-fixed sample, overall success rate of amplification by PCR was 96% or above, while for the 4% formalin-fixed one, success rate was much lower than those of ethanol-fixed: 1) Control: 27%, 2) Ludox HS40: 3%, 3) Rose Bengal: 7%, and 4) Ludox HS40 and Rose Bengal: 3%. As a result present study verify that 99% ethanol is a proper fixative for DNA extraction in meiofauna organisms.

In order to promote the value of the flowers as new agricultural products, we investigated the biological activities of rape, arrowroot, and rose extracts. Biological activities investigated included antioxidant activity and the effects on 3T3-L1 fibroblast cells. When each flower was extracted with methanol, the antioxidant index and electron donating activity of roses was the highest $(IC_{50}$ of rose extract was $17.6 \mu{g}/m\ell$). When 3T3-L1 fibroblast cells were treated with extracts made with hexane, ethyl acetate, and ether, the rape extracts had a cytotoxic effect on the cells. 12.2% of cells survived when treated with a 3mg/$m\ell$ ether extract while those treated with the same concentration of hexane and ethyl acetate had survival rates of 76.2% and 78.6% respectively. In contrast to rape, the ether extract of arrowroot and rose stimulated the growth of 3T3-L1 cells. The effect of rose extracts was much bigger than those of other extracts. Although every rose extract stimulated the growth of the 3T3-L 1 cells, the ether extract stimulated growth up to 168.6% compared to the control at the concentration of $0.3mg/m\ell$, and 148.3% at the concentration of $1mg/m\ell$. The toxicity on cells treated with $H_2 O_2$ of $450\mu{M}l$was decreased with the addition of rose extract. The survival rate after treatment with rose extract at the concentration of $100\mu{g}/m\ell$ was increased to 71% compared to the 32% survival rate of control. From these results, it can be concluded that the extracts of arrowroot and rose seem to stimulate cells, whereas the extract of rape has a cytotoxic effect. Biological activities of ether extract were the strongest compared to those of other extracts at the tested concentrations.

This report describes recent advances in tissue culture, genetic transformation of commercial rose (Rosa hybrida) and in development of new rose cultivars by molecular breeding. Rose is one of major cut-flowers in global horticulture industry. Successful progresses were made in development of new cultivars for pathogen resistant, environmental stress resistant and petal color modification by molecular breeding. New cultivars, however, has not reported yet in korea, although lots of progresses were achieved in each field of conventional breeding, tissue culture and genetic transformation. Cooperation in these research fields will promote screening of useful genes to have specific traits on rose and exploiting of processes to improve in the efficiency of tissue culture and genetic transformation of rose, therefore, we hopefully expect that new rose cultivars by molecular breeding will be released in the near future.
