The effectiveness of plant-based attractants was studied using large traps, which attracted relatively more snails in agricultural water drainage ditches and rice-cultivating environments, although their effectiveness in rice fields and lakes was limited. The rate began to rise after three hours of observation. Watermelon peel exhibited the highest apple snail attraction rate (13.8%), followed by potatoes (10.0%), and apple peel (8.8%). These values significantly differed from the attraction rate attributed to papaya leaves (F=3.84; P=0.0387). After 24 h, watermelon peel and apple peel indicated a higher rate of attraction (23.4% and 21.7%, respectively), which were significantly different compared with those of papaya leaves and potatoes (F=9.94; P=0.00455). Large bait traps outperformed funnel traps in capturing golden apple snails and trapped a significant number of snails measuring over 1 cm in size. Watermelon peel was the most effective attractant for a large bait trap, followed by apple peel, potatoes, and papaya leaves. On average, 110 snails were captured in the lure net. However, potatoes, apple peels, and papaya leaves caught an average of 93, 80, and 79 snails, respectively. Among the attractants, the lure effect of the snails was not significantly different. The efficiency of large bait traps in capturing snails, regardless of the plant attractant employed, followed the order: apple peel > watermelon peel and potatoes > papaya leaves > melon > Korean melon. Watermelon peel is highly recommended for farmer use, as well as apple peel and potatoes. Utilizing these snail attractants may contribute positively to developing a safe and environment-friendly integrated pest management strategy.

본 연구센터에서는 백색과 황색의 기존 품종의 감자보다 anthocyanin함량이 높고 생리활성이 우수한 것으로 확인된 신품종인 컬러감자 '홍영'과 '자영'을 개발하였으며, 차후 컬러감자를 산업화 용도로 가공 시 전량 폐기되는 외피의 활용도를 높이기 위하여 다음과 같은 생리활성 연구를 실시하였다. 컬러감자외피의 추출물과 분획물을 이용하여 항염증 효과를 검토한 결과, 대식세포인 RAW264.7 cell에서 염증매개물질인 lipopoly sacchride(LPS)로 염증을 유발시켜 nitric oxide(NO), prostagland-in $E_2(PGE_2)$ inducible nitric oxide synthase(iNOS), 그리고 cyclo oxygenase-2(COX-2)같은 염증유발인자들의 억제효과를 확인하였다. 자색감자인 자영외피 Chloroform분획물의 염증유발인자 억제 시 $IC_{50}$ value를 측정하여 $25{\sim}50{\mu}g/ml$의 농도에서 유의성 있는 항염증 효과를 보였다. Nitric oxide 생성을 농도의존적으로 현저하게 저해하는 농도는 $36.15{\mu}g/ml$이며, 세포독성이 없는 최고 농도인 $100{\mu}g/ml$의 농도에서 LPS에 의해 유도된 $PGE_2$를 76.68%만큼 유의성 있는 저해 효과를 보였다. 그리고 iNOS와 COX-2단백질을 유의성 있게 저해하는 농도는 $50{\mu}g/ml$ 처리였으며, 특이적으로 iNOS는 $25{\mu}g/ml$을 처리하였을 때부터 유의성 있는 저해효과를 보였다. 따라서 본 연구 결과는 자영외피의 chloroform 분획물이 유의성 있는 항염증 효과를 나타내며, 이러한 효능은 예방의학적 기능성을 충분이 가지고 있기에 염증성질환의 예방을 위한 건강기능성식품의 개발가능성을 제시할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Pathogenic fungi and bacteria such as Pectobacterium atrosepticum, Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. sepedonicus, Verticillium albo-atrum, and Rhizoctonia solani were the major microorganism which causes diseases in seed potato during postharvest process. Current detection method for disease-infected seed potato relies on human inspection, which is subjective, inaccurate and labor-intensive method. In this study, a reflectance spectroscopy was used to classify sound and disease-infected seed potatoes with the spectral range from 400 to 1100 nm. Partial least square discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) with various preprocessing methods was used to investigate the feasibility of classification between sound and disease-infected seed potatoes. The classification accuracy was above 97 % for discriminating disease seed potatoes from sound ones. The results show that Vis/NIR reflectance method has good potential for non-destructive sorting for disease-infected seed potatoes.

Climate change which occuring the recent abrupt fluctuations in meteorological and climatological elements is bound, brings about more significant impacts and changes in human life One of the most important problems due to the impacts of climate change tends to have been decreased the food production, which is expected to make crop resources more and more important. Accordingly, agricultural meteorology should also become more important. In this study, the correlation between meteorological elements and root and tuber crops (potatoes and sweet potatoes), which are emergency crops, and meteorological elements were analyzed, and the impacts of climate changes on the production of such crops were examined. This study concludes that agriculture and food resources are important, and suggests that we should prepare for changes in crops, the weaponization of food, and the lack of water resources in the future. The meteorological element and crops element correlation analysis results. Sweet potatoes, which are negatively influenced by climate change, need breeding improvement and cultivation method development, and potatoes, which are positively influenced by climate change, require preparations for climate changes that exceed the climatic limit. The variations of agricultural production contributed to changes in crop production. Therefore, the importance of agricultural meteorology and the food crop industry should be fully recognized to prepare for climate change.

We analyzed the ${\gamma}$-aminobutyric acid (GABA) content of a selection of uncooked foods. Foods with GABA concentrations in excess of 100 nmole per g dry weight included: brown rice germ, brown rice sprouts, barley sprouts, bean sprouts, beans, corn, barley, brown rice, spinach, potatoes, sweet potatoes, yams, kale and chestnuts. Cereals included: brown rice germ, brown rice sprouts, barley sprouts, bean sprouts, beans, corn, barley, and brown rice and had GABA concentrations of 718, 389, 326, 302, 250, 199, 190, and 123 nmole per g dry weight (DW), respectively. The vegetables: spinach, potatoes, sweet potatoes, yams and kale contained 414, 166, 137, 129, 122 nmole GABA per g DW, respectively. The GABA concentration of chestnut was 188 nmole per g DW. However, oatmeal, adlay, broccoli, squash, carrots, onion, apples, lentinus edodes, green laver, and lactobacillus had GABA concentrations of less than 100 nmole per g DW. These results show that brown rice germ, sprouted cereals and spinach are good sources of plant-derived GABA. These data will be useful in selecting foods for the manufacturing of uncooked foods containing a relatively high concentrations of GABA.
