This experiment was conducted to examine the changes in polysaccharide concentration and morphological variation of Fomitopsis pinicola mycelium during submerged-culture in the citrus peel medium (CP). On the 12 days culture, the yields of mycelium and alcohol insoluble substance were 40.21%(w/v) and 6.94%(w/w), respectively, which were much higher than 11.29%(w/v, wet basis) and 3.17%(w/w, wet basis) obtained from YM medium. A large amount of acid soluble polysaccharides was derived from YM medium while a larger amount of alkali soluble polysaccharide was produced from CP medium. Yields of the mycelium were higher when cultured in CP medium However, there was no significant difference in formation of membranous vesicle between mycelia cultured in CP medium and YM medium. It was also observed that the formation of vacuole was closely related to the activation of the multivescular body known as cytolysome. As a result activation of mycelium and cell wall biosynthesis were more accelerated in CP medium.

This study was carried out to provide the geographic information based on the distribution of rice qualities and palatability in Gyeoungbuk province of Korea. The rice grain quality and environmental factors were analyzed using 513 sampling sites based on different five-agroclimtic regions of Gyeoungbuk province during three years from 2002 to 2004. In rice grain quality characteristics, the average palatability was low in South eastern coastal and Tabaek semi alpine regions as $67.6\~68.3$ and the coefficient of variation (CV) was relatively high as $6.2\~7.4\%$. The average head rice rates were low in South and Central eastern coastal regions as $87.3\~88.2\%$ and CV was high as $8.2\~8.3\%$. The average protein content was high in Central eastern coastal regions as $8.0\%$ and CV was high as $8.2\~8.3\%$. In case of palatability, the variation was differed clearly between high and low agroclimatic regions; it means that it is possible to divide the same agroclimatic region of high CV into two or three areas by CV of palatability. As the results of subdividing each existing agroclimatic regions based on the palatability, the variation of grain quality characteristics was become lower than that of existing five-agroclimatic regions. Therefore, the re-establishing of agroclimatic region based on rice grain quality was very important for precise cultivation for rice.

This study was conducted to determine the effect of rice bran on rice yield, grain quality and weeds control depending on applying times. The redox potential was severely reduced $4{\sim}7$ days after rice bran application but that of conventional practice was reduced 17 days after transplanting. During the decomposing of the rice bran in the water, the dissolved oxygen in the water was exhausted right away after rice bran application. The dry weight of weed increased as the rice bran application time was delayed that weed dry weights increased by 138% in applying before puddling (ABP), 219% in 5 DAT (days after transplanting), 300% in 7 DAT and 619% in 9 DAT compared to conventional practice. The rice yield reduced remarkably in rice bran treatments after transplanting compared to conventional practice and applying before puddling. In the rice quality, the head rice ratio in the rice bran treatment was higher than that in conventional practice, and its protein content decreased. The results confirm that the rice bran application make the rice palatability higher, but there was no difference in rice qualities depending on application times.

This study was carried out to compare the growth and yield characteristics between bakanae diseases (Gibberella fujikuroi) infected and uninfected rice plants with different disinfection mothods. The infected rice seeds, harvested previous year, were disinfected either with prochloraz for 48 hours at $33^{\circ}C$ in germinator or 24 hours at room temperature and not disinfected. In the methods of disinfection, it is more effective in disinfected by prochloraz for 48 hours at $33^{\circ}C$ using germinator near to 0% of infection rate, followed by conventional method as 5.0% and 76% in not disinfected rice seeds. In the rice yield components among the disinfection methods, panicles were increased about 11% in the disinfected seeds using germinator for 48 hours compared to conventional method. Ripening grain rate also increased at the disinfected using germinator as $80.3{\sim}80.3%$, improved more than $4.9{\sim}5.9%$ compared to the conventional disinfection. From these results, the rice yield was $512{\sim}517\;kg/1,000\;m^2$ at the disinfected using germinator which increased more than $6{\sim}7%$ compared to the conventional disinfection.

The origins and the functions of the multi vesicular bodies and the various structures of the membranes related to the cytolysomes were studied in the mycelium cells of Rhizopus nigricans, Aspergillus niger and A. ochraceus, in the hymenium and basidium cells of Agricus bisporus sand Rhizopogon rubesecens, in the cells of assimilation tissue of Marchtantia polymorpha and Pogonalum inflexum and in the mesophyll cells of Pteridium aqiulinum, Pinus densiflora, Ginkgo biloba and Panax ginseng fixed with glutaraldehyde-paraformaldehyde-$ OsO_4$. In Rhizopus nigricans, Aspergillus niger, A. ochraceus, Agricus bisporus sand Rhizopogon rubescens, the concentric multilamellar, multivesicular, myelin-vesicle-tubular and concentric parallel-lamellar complexes were originated from the plasmalemma, while in Marehantia polymorpha, Pogonatum inflexum, Pteridium aquilinum, Pinus densiflora, Ginkgo biloba and Panax ginseng, they were originated from plasmalemma and the cytoplasm. The structures originated from the plasmalemma may be grouped into multi vesicular body and myelin-like structure, both forming the secondary vacuoles or protruding into the central vacuoles and finally degrading, In some cases, endoplasmic reticulum within the cytoplasm encloses some part of the cytoplasm to form a circle where the membranous lamellae increase in number, while the enclosed cytoplasm decrease to be eventually replaced by the multilamellar structure which is released into the vacuoles and subsquently degraded. The structures originated from the cytoplasm are believed to be the cytosegresomes or cytolysomes closely related to the differentiation of the vacuoles. The possible fate of these structures are also discussed.

This study was carried out to improve the rice grain quality of Gyeoungbuk Province from 2002 to 2004. In variation of grain quality characteristics as the cultivation years were changed, the coefficient of variation (CV) of palatability and amylose content were relatively low as $3.9\~4.3\%$ and those of protein content and head rice rate were high as $7.9\~12.2\%$. Among the varieties, the tendency of variation was similar with cultivation years changing, CV of amylose content and palatability also low as $2.6\~3.6\%$ and those of head rice rate and protein content were high as $5.4\~7.2\%$. In variation as affected by shifting of transplanting times, the CV of protein content was low as 2.2, it was also relatively low in amylose content and head rice rate as $3.1\~3.7\%$, but it was high in palatability as $5.8\%$. As the nitrogen application levels were different the CV of amylase content was $1.8\%$ that it was not affected by the N levels. But in case of protein content, the CV was $4.4\%$ that the variation was somewhat increased, it suggested that as the N levels were increased the protein content was also increased. From these results, the rice quality characteristics showed the higher variation in the change of cultivation years than that in rice varieties, transplanting times or nitrogen levels.

This study was carried out to compare the rice quality between domestic brand rice and imported Chinese rice. In the appearance of grain, head rice rates were $96.1\%$ in domestic brand rice (Ilpumbyeo), $94.1\%$ in Jingguan (Chinese brand rice) and $86.5\%$ in Xiaozhandao(Chinese brand rice). In case of Chinese parboiled rice, the head rice rate was $0\%$ because the cracked and broken rice occupied about $95.5\%$. The low protein contents in Ilpumbyeo and Xiaozhandao as 6.5 and $6.7\%$ show relatively high palatability as 81.9 and 71.4. However, high protein contents in Jingguan and Chinese parboiled rice as 7.5, $7.4\%$ show low palatability as 64.3 and 55.6. In viscosity characteristics, peak viscosity, break down and final viscosity were higher in Ilpumbyeo and Xiaozhandao, midium in Jingguan and lowest in Chinese parboiled rice. And the set back value, which was negatively related with amylose content, was lowest in Ilpumbyeo and highest in Chinese parboiled, suggesting slow deterioration in Ilpumbyeo and rapid deterioration in Chinese parboiled rice. Overall physical components of cooked rice measured by Texture Analyser were higher in Ilpumbyeo than those in Chinese parboiled rice.

The ultrastructural changes of embryo and endosperm cells were observed during the green fruit with embryo about $250{\mu}$ long to germination. 1. In the embryo cells of green fruit with embryo about $250{\mu}$ long, mitochondrial cristae and plastid are undifferentiated and dictyosome are occasionally observed. There are electron-opaque globoids in the vacuole and a lot of spherosomes in the outer layer of smooth endoplasmic reticulum. Endosperm is filled with spherosomes and electron-opaque protein bodies surrounded by spherosomes, and due to these, other organelle are not observed. 2. In the embryo cells of seeds with red seed coat, mitochondrial cristae are well developed, electron-opaque globoids increased, and vacuoles are enlarged. In the endosperm, however, spherosomes increased, protein bodies are enlarged, and electron-opaque globoidal crystals are dispersed within them. 3. In the procambium and epicotyl cells of dehiscent seed, Golgi vacuoles and vesicles are well developed, and mitochondrial cristae are also well differentiated. Spherosomes are numerously present and radicle cells, peripheral cells of hypocotyl, and vacuoles of cotyledon are well differentiated. Endosperm is filled with spherosomes containing electron-opaque granules and protein bodies are surrounded by a single membrane. There are acid phosphatase around globoids and spherosomes. 4. At the time of seeding, spherosomes markedly increased in the outer layer of cotyledon and protein bodies are also observed. Cell organelles are differentiated and plastids containing starch are also present. 5. In the outer $2{\sim}3$ layers of cotyledons, radicle cells, and peripheral cells of hypocotyl during post-seeding to germination, spherosomes and plastids with starch increased, and mitochondria and microbodies are also found around the nucleus of embryo cells. With approaching, the germination stage, in the endosperm contacting with embryo, vacuoles are well differentiated but spherosomes decreased. There increased electron-opaque materials within vacuoles. In other endosperm, with the decrease of spherosome, mitochondria increased and electro n-opaque globular bodies are formed and gradually increased. The outer layer of protein bodies are reduced while electron-transparent portions are enlarged and fused together to occupy the outer layer where small particles are formed. 6. In the endosperm of germination stage, spherosomes decreased while protein bodies, are fused together to form 2 or 3 within a cell.

This experiment was conducted to clarify the effect of the temperature for grain filling duration on quality and taste of cooked rice cultivated in different region in Korea. In 2006 and 2007, 4 mid-late maturing group of rice varieties (Nampyeongbyeo, Ilpumbyeo, Junambyeo and Dongjin 1) were cultivated in 28 experimental plots of 27 different regions located in 8 provinces. The taste of cooked rice were positively correlated with 1,000 grain weight but negatively correlated with protein content of brown rice. Mean temperature for 30 days from heading was more closely correlated with grain filling and tastes of cooked rice than those for 40 days. Though, the optimum mean temperature for the best taste of cooked rice for 30 days after heading was 22.1 to $23.1^{\circ}C$ depending on varieties, in general, 1,000 grain weight and cooked rice taste were the highest in the mean temperature of $22.2^{\circ}C$ for 30 days from heading. But grains were poorly ripened in case of the mean temperature lower than $21.0^{\circ}C$ for 30 days after heading. Therefore, for the better taste of cooked rice in Korea, the developing new rice varieties and cultivation method should be focused to adjust the mean temperature within $22-23^{\circ}C$ during the period of 30 days after heading.
