The changes of O-J-I-P transients were investigated using leaves of four subtropical plant species (Crinum asiaticum var. japonicum, Osmanthus insularis, Chloranthus glaber and Asplenium antiquum) under the natural conditions in winter, in order to select the stress indicators for diagnosing physiological states of plants under low temperature. In the O-J-I-P transients of these species, the fluorescence intensity was found to be higher in O-step and lower in P-step in winter than in summer. Particularly, the fluorescence intensity of the P-step in Crinum asiaticum var. japonicum was lower than those of other three plant species, indicating that Crinum asiaticum var. japonicum is the most sensitive to low temperature. Of the chlorophyll fluorescence parameters derived from O-J-I-P transients of four subtropical plants, Fm, Fv/Fo, ABS/CS, TRo/CS, $\phi_{po}$ and $\phi_{po}/(1-\phi_{po})$ decreased significantly with the increase of Fo, Sm, N, EToICS, ETo/RC and $\psi_o/(1-\psi_o)$ depending on temperature drop in winter. Therefore, these parameters could be used as indicators for estimating low temperature stress and diagnosing physiological states of plants under the natural conditions in winter.

본 연구는 환경요인의 변화, 특히 겨울철 저온이 식물체에 미치는 영향을 정량적으로 밝히기 위해, 저온감수성 식물인 문주란을 대상으로 겨울철 일주기에 있어서 항산화효소 활성과 O-J-I-P곡선의 변화를 조사하였다. 겨울철의 superoxide dismutase와 peroxidase의 활성은 여름철에 비해 다소 증가하였다. 특히, peroxidase는 겨울철 새벽과 밤에 높은 활성을 보였으며 초겨울에만 특이적으로 검출되는 isoenzyme들로 관찰할 수 있었다. 또한 겨울철 문주란 잎의 O-J-I-P곡선에서 J, I, P-단계의 형광세기가 여름철에 비해 현저하게 감소하였다. 그리고, O-J-I-P곡선으로부터 산출된 주요 형광변수들 중에 Fm과 $\Phi_{po}$는 겨울철 저온에 노출되는 기간이 길어짐에 따라 각각 $30\%$와 $50\%$로 감소하였으며, ABS/RC는 초겨울보다는 늦은 겨울에 2배정도 증가하였다.

The change of chlorophyll fluorescence parameters, O-J-I-P transients and psbA gene expression were investigated in the leaves of Crinum asiaticum var. japonicum on the natural condition in winter, in order to elucidate physiological responses of photosystem II (PS II) activity to winter stresses. The photochemical efficiencies of PS II, Fv/Fm, were significantly low in winter, contrary to its high value in summer. The values of I -qN and I-qP were lower in midday than at dawn or night both in summer and winter, although their decrease in midday was less in winter than in summer. In the O-J-I-P transients, the fluorescence intensity of J, I, P-step decreased remarkably depending on temperature drop in winter. And the D I reaction center protein of PS II decreased in late winter more than in early winter, concomitantly with relatively high content of description products of psbA gene in midday. These results indicate that low temperature in winter causes irreversible damage to PS II and subsequently leads to cell death.

겨울철 저온에 의한 식물의 반응 및 생리적 상태를 확인하기 위해 문주란(Crinum asiaticum var. japonicum)을 대상으로 엽록소형광과 항산화효소 찬성의 변화를 조사하였다. O-J-I-P곡선을 분석한 결과 겨울철에 J, I, P-단계에서의 형광세기가 현저하게 간소하였다. 문주란 잎의 광계II의 광화학적 효율, 즉 Fv/Fm은 겨울철의 온도변화 추이와 유사하게 낮은 값을 나타내어 겨울철 저온이 스트레스 요인으로. 작용하는 것으로 보인다. 그리고, 겨울철에 superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase, peroxidase 활성 이 다소 증가하였으나 catalase 활성은 여름철에 비하여 크게 낮았다. 이러한 결과는 겨울철의 Fv/Fm의 감소와 함께 문주란이 겨울철 저온에 의해 산화적 스트레스에 처해 있게되며 세포사멸이 일어나는 것으로 해석된다.

The diurnal changes of chlorophyll fluorescence and antioxidative enzyme activity were investigated in the leaves from four subtropical plant species (Crinum asiaticum var. japonicum Bak., Osmanthus insularis Koidz., Asplenium antiquum Makino and Chloranthus glaber Makino) under the natural habitats in summer and winter. The intensity of chlorophyll fluorescence was lower in O-, I-, J-, P-steps of O-J-I-P transient in winter than summer, and prominent diurnal change was not found in the fluorescence intensity of four subtropical plant species in winter. The activity and isoenzyme pattern of SOD and catalase did irregularly change seasonally and diurnally in four subtropical plant species. In contrast, the peroxidase activity and isoenzyme pattern was different depending on plant species and growth seasons; The activity increased slightly more in winter than in summer in four subtropical plant species, and several isoenzymes appeared in the leaves from C. asiaticum var japonicum, O. insularis and A. antiquum in winter.

The response of the freshwater microalga Chlorella vulgaris to mercuric ion ($Hg^{2+}$) stress was examined using chlorophyll a fluorescence image analysis and O-J-I-P analysis as a way to monitor the toxic effects of mercury on water ecosystems. The levels of photosynthetic pigments, such as chlorophyll a and b and carotenoids, decreased with increasing $Hg^{2+}$ concentration. The maximum photochemical efficiency of photosystem II(Fv/Fm) changed remarkably with increasing $Hg^{2+}$ concentration and treatment time. In particular, above $200{\mu}M\;Hg^{2+}$, considerable mercury toxicity was seen within 2 h. The chlorophyll a fluorescence transient O-J-I-P was also remarkably affected by $Hg^{2+}$; the fluorescence emission decreased considerably in steps J, I, and P with an increase in $Hg^{2+}$ concentration when treated for 4 h. Subsequently, the JIP-test parameters (Fm, Fv/Fo, RC/CS, TRo/CS, ETo/CS, ${\Phi}_{PO}$, ${\Psi}_O$ and ${\Phi}_{EO}$) decreased with increasing $Hg^{2+}$ concentration, while N, Sm, ABS/RC, DIo/RC and DIo/CS increased. Therefore, a useful biomarker for investigating mercury stress in water ecosystems, and the parameters Fm, ${\Phi}_{PO}$, ${\Psi}_O$, and RC/CS can be used to monitor the environmental stress in water ecosystems quantitatively.

The chlorophyll fluorescence combined with the O-J-I-P transients were examined in the leaves of the crinum plants (Crinum asiaticum var. japonicum BAK.), in order to satisfy the demand for rapid in vivo measurement of vitality, and to apply easily to approach questions of economical interest concerning the plant vitality. The photosynthetic efficiency, Fv/Fm, of crinum plants dramatically decreased depending on temperature drop in winter. In summer, the Fv/Fm values was lower in day time than at dawn and night, suggesting that photosynthetic efficiency is chronically photoinhibited in day time. In winter, there was no prominent diurnal fluctuations of Fv/Fm values. However, based on the O-J-I-P transient, PI$\_$NO/ and SFI$\_$NO/ dramatically increased at noon in summer, and $\psi$o/(1-$\psi$o) diurnally fluctuated in winter. These results indicated that vitality indexes such as PI$\_$NO/, SFI$\_$NO/ and $\psi$o/(1-$\psi$o) can be used as the indicators for in vivo measurement of environmental stresses.

The effects of cadmium ions ($Cd^{2+}$) on the Chl a fluorescence of Ricciocarpos natans were investigated in order to determine whether Chl fluorescence can be used as a biomarker to estimate the physiological responses of plants to cadmium stress. In all plants treated with $Cd^{2+}$, the image of Fv/Fm, which represents the maximum photochemical efficiency of PSII, changed as the $Cd^{2+}$ concentration increased, when treated for 48 h or more. Changes of ${\Phi}_{PSII}$ and $Q_P$ images were recognized even at 10 ${\mu}M$ $Cd^{2+}$. The Chl a O-J-I-P fluorescence transient was also affected even at 10 ${\mu}M$ $Cd^{2+}$. The fluorescence yield decreased considerably in steps J, I and P in plants treated with $Cd^{2+}$, although a typical polyphasic rise was observed in non-treated plants. The Chl fluorescence parameters, Fm, Fv/Fo, Sm, SFIabs, PIabs and ETo/CS, decreased as the $Cd^{2+}$ concentration increased, while the Mo and Kn parameters increased. Peroxidase activity decreased significantly and catalase activity increased as the $Cd^{2+}$ concentration increased. Because of its sensitivity to $Cd^{2+}$ Ricciocarpos natans is useful in experiments investigating the responses of plants to cadmium exposure. Several parameters (Fm, Fv/Fo, Sm, SFIabs, PIabs, ETo/CS, Mo and Kn) can be applied to determine quantitatively the physiological states of plants under cadmium stress.

The regulatory guide, RG-1.204 and its underlying or confirmatory research, NUREG/CR-6866 were studied for Korean application to LPGS of NPPs. However they excluded the application to that of NPPs. So US-NRC approved selectively industrial standards to that of NPPs on Nov 2005. It is necessary to understand the basis of regulatory technology related regulatory positions on LPGS and important to implement the guidance on LPGS as a resonable standard. The paper is examined what and how state of the art of relevant technology applied to the LPGS as well as the trip-out events related to electrical system were involved with LPGS. We reviewed the relevant standards applicable to Korean NPPs. Following are concluded to recommend. (1) IEEE 510-1050 is recommended as a guide for I&C grounding against EMI and lighting transients (2) IEEE Std-665, 510-666, Std-C62.23 for electrical grounding against voltage surges and lighting transients (3) Inspection should be thoroughly be implemented a frequency of 3-5 year period according to NFPA780 or KSC-IEC 61024.
