The occurrence of plum fruit moth, Grapholita dimorpha, has been recently reported in apple orchards in Korea. It has been suspected that G. dimorpha and its related species, G. molesta, may occur simultaneously in other host plants. This study reports the occurrence of G. dimorpha in pear orchards of different localities in Korea. The identification of G. dimorpha was determined by morphological characters and the DNA marker. The cross-trapping of both species may be possible because the major sex pheromone (SP) compositions for the two species are similar. From the monitoring data, G. dimorpha and G. molesta were caught in SP lure traps of G. dimorpha and both species were also caught in SP lure traps of G. molesta. This cross-trapping of G. molesta to a SP lure of G. dimorpha varied significantly among pear orchards in different geographical localities. Furthermore, the occurrence peaks of the two species were not coincidental in all monitored orchards. These suggest that monitoring data obtained from each SP trap of both species in pear orchards may be mixed with two species, which would result in the over-estimation of population density and peak frequency on both species in pear orchards.

배나무잎 이상반점증상의 이병여부를 조기에 판별할 수 있는 가장 간편한 검정방법을 개발코자 시험하였다. 접목시기는 늦어질수록 병징발현율이 감소하였다. 접목방법은 2중절접, 2중삭아절접 순으로 양호하였으나 숙련된 기술이 필요한 이중절접방법보다 간편한 2중삭아절접 방법이 대량검정에 적합하였다. 이상반점증상의 전염에 필요한 최소 접촉시간은 1일 이상이었고 칼루스가 형성되어 접목부위가 활착된 21일 이후에서 발병이 가장 높았다.

This study was attempted to compare the properties of proteolytic enzymes in fruits(Pear, Kiwifruit, Fig, Pineapple and Papaya) for the application of scientific information to cooking. The results were as follows: 1. The optimum temperature of crude proteolytic enzymes in pear, fig and pineapple is 60$^{\circ}C$ and it was relatively active in 40-70$^{\circ}C$; papaya showed max. activity in 60$^{\circ}C$ and highly stable activity in 40-80$^{\circ}C$, but kiwifruit showed max. activity in 40$^{\circ}C$ and it maintained to 70$^{\circ}C$. 2.. The crude proteolytic enzymes of pear, fig, pineapple and papaya showed opt. pH at pH 7.0 and maintained at pH 5.0-8.0, but max. activity of kiwifruit observed in pH 3.0 and pH 5.0-8.0. 3. As a result of comparison of total activities of fruits per kg unit, the order of activities was pineapple > kiwifruit > papaya > fig > pear.

This experiment was conducted to elucidate the effects of fruit bagging on the amounts of pesticide residues on/in pears with two pesticides, chlorpyrifos 25% WP, and penconazole 5% WP, and two pear cultivars, Niitaka and Hwangeum-bae. Residues of chlorpyrifos and penconazole in bagged pears were only $0.4{\sim}27%$ of those in non-bagged one. Residues of both pesticides in bagged and non-bagged pears were steeply reduced in the field but slowly reduced during storage. Residues of chlorpyrifos were more in the peel than in the flesh, while penconazole in bagged pear was evenly distributed in the peel and flesh. Chlorpyrifos was evenly distributed in outer bag and inner bag irrespective of bag materials, while most of penconazole was found in outer bag rather than in inner bag. To produce safer pear from pesticide residues, removal of bag before storage is recommended.

This study investigated the efficiency of mating disrupters for the control of Grapholita molesta(Busck) and Adoxophyes orana in pear orchards. G. molesta was shown 4 peak occurrence, which were different according to treatments. In conventional control, many moths were captured in mid and late April and peaks occurred in mid June, August, and early-mid September. In the non-control treatment, there were low populations in April. A. orana also appeared to 4 peak in 2007. Moths were rarely captured in mating disrupter treatment but many were captured in both the non-control and in conventional treatment. A. orana damage differed significantly between mating disrupter use and conventional control in 2006. Especially, the difference was significant between conventional control and mating disrupter to leaf damage in August, and there were similar results in the damage by G. molesta in the shoots and fruits.

Three low-molecular compounds were isolated from methanol extracts of pear (Pyrus pyrifolia N. cv. Chuhwangbae) fruit peels using solvent fractionation, various types of column chromatogrphy (Diaion HP-20, Sephadex LH-20, and silica gel), and high performance liquid chromatography with an assay guided by 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical-scavenging activity. The isolated compounds were identified as 2-carboxyl-4(1H)-quinolinone (kynurenic acid, 1) from butanol fraction, cis-p-coumaric acid (2) from ethyl acetate-acidic fraction, and vanillin (3) from the ethyl acetate-phenolic fraction, respectively. These isolated compounds were confirmed on the basis of the spectroscopic data of electrospray ionization mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance. This is the first time that compounds 1-3 were isolated and identified in pear.

Pear psylla, Caccopsylla pyricola (Homoptera: Psyllidae), is a serious insect pest in pear orchards. C. pyricola overwinters as adults under rough bark scales of pear trees. When the weather warms up in the spring, the overwintered adults become active, climb up to the tree branches, and inhabit on fruit twigs to lay eggs. This study was conducted to develop a forecasting model for the onset of upward-movement of overwintered C. pyricola adults to control them by timely spraying of petroleum oil. The adult population densities were observed under rough barks (B) and on fruit twigs (T) of pear trees. Relative upward-movement rates (R) were calculated as T/(B+T). Low threshold temperatures for the activation of overwintered C. pyricola adults were selected arbitrarily from 5 to $9^{\circ}C$ at a $1^{\circ}C$ interval. Then, the days (D) when daily maximum air temperatures were above each low threshold temperature were counted from 1 February until to the dates with R $\geq$ 0.8. The same methods were applied for the prediction of the first observation of eggs. The variation of coefficients (CV) for the mean Des were lowest with the low threshold temperature of $6^{\circ}C$. At this selected threshold temperature, the upward movement of C. pyricola adults occurred with 12 D and they started laying eggs with 25 D. In the field validation, the model outputs with the $6^{\circ}C$ threshold temperature reasonably well explained the observed data in Suwon and Cheonan in 2002. Practical usages of the model were also discussed.

This study was carried out to investigate the quality characteristics of pear jam containing fresh ginger(G1) and ginger powders; dried ginger powder(G2), freeze-dried ginger powder(G3), and hot-air dried ginger powder(G4). The moisture, crude protein, and crude ash content of the control group were significantly higher than those of the experimental groups (p<0.001, p<0.05, p<0.01). The pH of the dried ginger powder added jam(G2) was the lowest(p<0.05). Texture profile analysis found that the dried ginger powder added jam(G2) had the highest firmness, consistency, cohesiveness, and resistance to flow/viscosity among all samples(p<0.001). Regarding the spread-meter value of the pear jam, the control group (G1) and hot air-dried ginger powder added jam(G4) had the highest values. The dried ginger power added jam(G2) had the lowest value among the samples(p<0.01). Regarding the color values of the pear jam, the control group(G1) had the highest L and b values. Hot-air dried ginger powder added jam(G4), on the other hand, had the lowest(p<0.001). The opposite was true for a value: hot-air dried ginger powder added jam(G4) had the highest. From the sensory evaluation, a positive trend was observed for the appearance of the dried ginger powder added jam(G2)(p<0.001). For sweetness, the dried ginger powder added jam(G2) had the highest value. A positive trend was observed for the overall acceptability of the dried ginger powder-added jam(G2)(p<0.001). Therefore, the dried ginger powder-added sample(G2) seemed to be the most appropriate to make pear jam with high acceptability.
