Pod dehiscence in six rape varieties drying after harvest in the field was investigated with use of strain gauge. The development of rape pods was observed after 3-4 days of flowering. The length of pod and seed reached of their maximal size at the 20th and 35th days after flowering, respectively. The seed shape was nearly spherical 40 days after flowering, and pod width was maximal at the 45th days of flowering. Moisture content of seeds was 70% at cutting time, reduced to 30% at 5 days of drying in the plastic film house and 10% at 14 days. Pod dehiscence showed a diurnal change with moisture content of pods and relative humidity, and the dehiscence became difficult under low moisture content of pods and relative humidity of which seems to be related to the rapid drying condition of pod.

Transgenic tobacco plants expressing either a sweet potato anionic peroxidase (POD) (swpal) or neutral POD (swpnl) were irradiated by gamma radiation, and the gamma radiation-induced biochemical changes in antioxidant enzymes and plant growth inhibition were investigated at 30 days after treatment. Gamma radiation significantly inhibited the growth of all plants regardless of transgenic or nontransformed plants, showing a dose-dependent inhibition. In high dosage of 50 and 70 Gy, plant heights were severely retarded and new leaves does not emerged. No significant changes in antioxidant enzymes such as POD, superoxide dismutase and catalase were observed in all plants regardless of irradiation dosages ranging from 10 to 50 Gy. These results suggest that sweet potato PODs may be not involved in the protection against the oxidative stress induced by gamma radiation.

The proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) method for time-dependent problems significantly reduces the computational time as it reduces the original problem to the lower dimensional space. Even a higher degree of reduction can be reached if the solution is smooth in space and time. However, if the solution is discontinuous and the discontinuity is parameterized e.g. with time, the POD approximations are not accurate in the reduced space due to the lack of ability to represent the discontinuous solution as a finite linear combination of smooth bases. In this paper, we propose to post-process the sample solutions and re-initialize the POD approximations to deal with discontinuous solutions and provide accurate approximations while the computational time is reduced. For the post-processing, we use the Gegenbauer reconstruction method. Then we regularize the Gegenbauer reconstruction for the construction of POD bases. With the constructed POD bases, we solve the given PDE in the reduced space. For the POD approximation, we re-initialize the POD solution so that the post-processed sample solution is used as the initial condition at each sampling time. As a proof-of-concept, we solve both one-dimensional linear and nonlinear hyperbolic problems. The numerical results show that the proposed method is efficient and accurate.

Medical leech therapy is a treatment for the venous congestion of tissue flaps, grafts, and replants. We report a case of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) following leech application at a congested flap after mastectomy. A 45-year-old woman had an invasive ductal carcinoma. Modified radical mastectomy was performed. The chest wall defect was reconstructed with a local rotation flap. On postoperative day (POD) 1, congestion and color change were observed, and 10 medical leeches were applied to the congested area. On POD 4, another 10 medical leeches were applied. On POD 12, wound necrosis progressed and a pus-like discharge appeared. A wound swab culture revealed MRSA. Debridement was carried out on POD 15. From POD 16, vancomycin and piperacillin/tazobactam were injected for 18 days. The wound culture on POD 18 also revealed MRSA. A split-thickness skin graft was performed on POD 28. MRSA has not been clearly identified in the literature as a leech enteric bacterium. Although MRSA may have come from another source, the present case raises the possibility of MRSA infections following leech application at congested flaps. When medical leeches are applied at the congestion site of a flap, an aseptic cradle will be helpful. Vancomycin irrigation may be needed if infection occurs.

In this paper, we studied a method of wirelessly checking up the POD for captive flight tests which is performed during the development of guided weapons systems. The wireless power transfer module, the power distribution device, and the battery pack were designed to wirelessly power the captive flight test POD, and the communication device was designed to enable wireless communication between the POD and the check-up device. The communication device was designed to enable WiFi, IR communication, and laser diode communication, so that various communication methods could be tested. Through the performance test, it was confirmed that power was stably supplied to the captive flight test POD, and the wireless communication performance was verified by measuring the delay time and error rate. As a result, by using our system the POD check-up for the captive flight test was performed wirelessly and the data of the captive equipment could be obtained effectively.

Present studies were carried out to get a basic information for biological control of soybean rod borer, Grapholitha glycinivorella Matsumura, causing main injury in soybean cultivation in Korea. 1474 native strains were cultivated in field to evaluate the pod borer damage. Pubescence density and color, maturity group, seed coat color, aphid and general leaf damage and seed damage by pod borer were investigated, and determined among their relationships. As another basic study for ecological control of insect, 6 leading varieties were planted on different planting date with 3 levels of plant spacing, on which pod borer damage and some related agronomic characters were studied. The results obtained one summarized as follows: Average injury of soybean pod borer was $5.2\%$ ranging $0-38\%$ in 1474 strains planted on 20 May. Non-significant correlations were found between pod borer damage and pubescence density and color, while pod borer damage closely related with maturity groupand aphid damage at $5\%$ level ofttests. Most severe damage was found in green seed coast color and maturity group V. Late and sparse plantings tend to have more damages to the pod borer than those of early and dense plantings. Pod setting date and period of pod maturing seemed related with pod borer damage. Bongeui and Chungbuk-baik cultivars were resistance to soybean pod borer, while Clark and Kumkang-daerip were susceptible in field tests.

The objective of experiment was to investigate the effects of planting density on growth and yield of vegetable soybean, and to clarify the optimum planting density of vegetable soybean in the middle west region of Korea. The field experiment with 4 levels of planting density was carried out at Yesan area in $2005{\sim}2006$. The days from seeding to flowering and the days from seeding to harvesting and lodging were not significantly different among planting distance. The stem length was increased as planting distance was shortened but the number of node, branch, pod per branch, pod per individual, weight of stem and pod, one hundred pod weight and rate of 2+3 seed per pod were decreased as planting density was increased. The size of vegetable soybeans was not significantly different among planting distance, but the harvest index of vegetable soybean was decreased as planting distance was shortened. Yield of vegetable soybean was increased as planting distance was decreased. However, the approriate densities for stem and pod weight per a plant, number of pod per a branch and the vegetable soybean yield of 2+3 seed per pod were different from that density. The optimal planting distance of varieties was $60{\sim}25\;cm$ in Sunheukkong and Ilpumgeomjeongkong and was $60{\sim}35\;cm$ in Galmikong.

Callus was induced from the petioles of scented-geranium (Pelargonium graveolense) in MS medium containing various concentrations of plant growth regulators. The highest frequency of more than 70% of callus was induced in 2 mg/l NAA and 0.5 mg/l BAP or 2 mg/l 2,4-D and 0.5 mg/l BAP combined treatment, while not in 2,4-D, NAA or BAP alone. When the callus was transferred to the MS medium containing 0.05 mg/l NAA and 0.5 mg/l BAP, were highest intensity of shoot formation, 14 shoots/callus, was induced after 5 weeks. The highest rooting was observed on hormone-free rooting media from the regenerated shoots after 3 weeks, indicating that the regeneration from geranium callus might be possible by changing the hormone ratios. Peroxidase (POD) specific activities in callus induced from 2 mg/l NAA and 0.5 mg/l BAP were higher than those of 2 mg/l 2,4-D and 0.5 mg/l BAP callus during the entire culture periods. POD isozyme C3 was the main cathodic POD isozyme expressed in NAA and BAP callus, while C1 was the main in 2,4-D and BAP callus. However, anodic POD isozymes, A1, A2 and A3 were expressed with similar activities in both hormone combinations.

Unsteady CFD results of the backward facing step (BFS) flow field is reconstructed by the low-dimenstional modes using the POD (Proper Orthogonal Decomposition) technique. Flow responses to the blowing or suction with various frequencies and amplitudes applied at the edge of the BFS can also be analysed using the same technique. The present technique can be effectively applied to the feedback flow control device.
