The effect of k-casein (k-CN) variant on milk production traits (milk yield, fat yield, protein yield, fat percentage and protein percentage) was estimated for 568 Holstein cows in the first lactation. The k-CN valiant were determined by PCR-RFLP (restriction fragment length polymorphism) technique at the DNA level. Single trait linear model was used for the statistical analysis of the data. Result of this study indicated that k-CN variant affected significantly milk yield (P<0.05) and protein yield (P<0.01). Animals with the BB variant produced 622kg milk more and had protein yield higher by 32kg compared with animals with the AA variant No associations between the k-CN variants and other milk production trait were found. Therefore, milk and protein yield may be improved through milk protein typing by increasing the frequencies of k-CN B variant in dairy cattle population. In cheese making, it will be also preferable to have milk with the B variant of k-CN, which gives higher yield having a better quality than the A variant milk.

A standard $1\%$ w/v solution of CM-chitosan made from squid pen was added to milk at levels of $0.5\sim3\%$ (v/v) to improve the yield and rheological properties of cottage cheese by whey protein retention. Cheese curd did not form at levels higher than $3\%$ (v/v) CM-chitosan standard solution. Yield and total protein of cottage cheese increased up to $2\%\;by\;11\;to\;42\%\;and\;17\;to\;38\%$ respectively, compared to control cheese. Whey protein losses were decreased by 11 to $42\%$ and thus accounted for all of the increase in yield. Anomalous results were obtained at the $0.8\%$ level, which neither improved yield or whey protein retention nor stabilized rheological parameters, and at the $0.5\%$ level, which improved yield and total protein without increasing whey protein retention. Elasticity and cohesiveness of CM-chitosan-containing cheese were generally improved and stabilized during storage. Monitoring of cheese chromaticity values for four weeks revealed a delay in the onset of yellowing in cheeses with CM-chitosan compared to the controls, while the concentration of added CM-chitosan had little influence on cheese chromaticity. The addition of CM-chitosan solution could be applied directly to industrial scale cottage cheese-making without the need for any modification of the production process.

The study was conducted to determine if variation in protein yield can be explained by expressions of early lactation somatic cell score (SCS) and if prediction can be improved by including SCS among the predictors. A data set was prepared (n = 663,438) from Wisconsin Dairy Improvement Association (USA) records for protein yield with sample days near 20. Stepwise regression was used requiring F statistic (p < .01) for any variable to stay in the model. Separate analyses were run for 12 combinations of four seasons and first three parities. Selection of SCS variables was not consistent across seasons or lactations. Coefficients of detennination ($R^2$) ranged from 51 to 61% with higher values for earlier lactations. Including any expression of SCS in the prediction equations improved $R^2$ by < 1 %. SCS was associated with milk yield on the sample day, but the association was not strong enough to improve the prediction of future yield when other expressions of milk yield were in the model.

Major milk proteins have considerable variane which comes from substitution and deletions in their amino arid sequences. Variants in genes that code for milk proteins, such as ${\beta}$-lactoglobulin (${\beta}-LG$) have been established as genetic markers for milk production and milk protein composition in dairy cattle. The effect of ${\beta}-LG$ variant on milk production traits, such as milk yield. fat yield, protein yield, fat percentage and protein percentage, was estimated for 482 Holstein cows in the first lactation. The ${\beta}-LG$ variants were determined by PCR-RFLP technique at the DNA level. Single trait linear model was used for the statistical analysis of the data. Results of this study indicated that ${\beta}-LG$ variants affected significantly protein yield (p<0.05) and fat percentage (p<0.05). Animals with the AA variant produced 31kg of milk protein more than animals with the BB variant. On the contrary, cows with the BB variant had fat percentage higher by 0.35 and 0.32% compared with cows with the AA and AB variants, respectively. No associations between the ${\beta}-LG$ variants and milk yield, protein percentage and fat yield were found Therefore, milk production traits could be improved through ${\beta}-LG$ typing by increasing the frequency of A variant for protein yield or the frequency of B variant for fat content in Holstein dairy cattle population.

This investigation was undertaken in order to elicit the relationship between the extent of ultrafiltration processing of whey and its effect on composition and yield of resultant whey protein concentrate (WPC). Cheddar cheese whey was fractionated through ultrafiltration to an extent of 70, 80, 90, 95, 97.5% and 97.5% volume reduction followed by I stage and II stage diafiltration. After each level of ultrafiltration, the composition of WPC was monitored. Similarly, the initial whey was adjusted to 3.0, 6.2 and 7.0 pH levels and ultrafiltration was carried out to elicit the effect of pH of ultrafiltration on the composition. Further, initial whey was adjusted to different levels of whey protein content ranging from 0.5 to 1.0 per cent and subjected to ultrafiltration to different levels. The various range of retentate obtained were further condensed and spray dried in order to assess the yield of WPC per unit volume of whey used and the quantity of whey required to produce unit weight of product. With the progress of ultrafiltration, there was a progressive increase in protein content and decrease in lactose and ash content. The regression study led to good relationships with $R^2$ values of more than 0.95 between the extents of permeate removed and the resultant changes in composition of each of the constituents. Whey processed at pH 3.0 had significantly a very low ash content and high protein content as compared to processing at 6.2 and 7.0. The yield of WPC per unit volume of whey varied significantly with the initial protein content. Higher initial protein content led to higher yield of all ranges of WPC and the quantity of whey required per unit weight of spray dried WPC significantly reduced. Regression equations establishing the relationship between initial protein content of whey and the yield of various types of WPC have been derived with very high $R^2$ values of 0.99. This study revealed that, the yield and composition of whey can be monitored strictly by controlling the processing parameters and WPC can be produced depending on the food formulation requirement.

Nitrogen management at the panicle initiation stage(PI) should be fine-tuned for securing a concurrent high yield and high quality rice production. For calibration and testing of the recommendation models of N topdressing rates at PI for target grain yield and protein content of rice, three split-split-plot design experiments including five rice cultivars and various N rates were conducted at the experimental farm of Seoul National University, Korea from 2003 to 2005. Data from the first two years of experiments were used to calibrate models to predict grain yield and milled-rice protein content using shoot fresh weight(FW), chlorophyll meter value(SPAD), and the N topdressing rate(Npi) at PI by stepwise multiple regression. The calibrated models explained 85 and 87% of the variation in grain yield and protein content, respectively. The calibrated models were used to recommend Npi for the target protein content of 6.8%, with FW and SPAD measured for each plot in 2005. The recommended N rate treatment was characterized by an average protein content of 6.74%(similar to the target protein content), reduced the coefficient of variation in protein content to 2.5%(compared to 4.6% of the fixed rate treatment), and increased grain yield. In the recommended N rate treatments for the target protein content of 6.8%, grain yield was highly dependent on FW and SPAD at PI. In conclusion, the models for N topdressing rate recommendation at PI were successful under present experimental conditions. However, additional testing under more variable environmental conditions should be performed before universal application of such models.

Response of grain yield and milled-rice protein content to nitrogen (N) rates at various growth stages is critical for quantifying real-time and real-amount of applied N requirement for target grain yield and protein content. An experiment including 10 N rate treatments at transplanting, tillering and panicle initiation stages with four rice cultivars in 2003, 6 N treatments with two rice cultivars in 2004 and 2005 was conducted. Increase of N rates at PIS significantly increased both grain yield and milled-rice protein content but increase of N rates at tillering stage significantly increased grain yield but not milledrice protein content. Therefore, high grain yield and low milled-rice protein content would be difficult to obtain only by adjusting N rates at PIS. Internal N use efficiency (INUE) was 60.5 kg grain/kg N accumulation on an average over N treatments, cultivars, and experimental years, showing considerable reduction especially at high shoot N accumulation in the experimental year of low sunshine duration. Milled-rice protein content tended to increase almost linearly with increasing shoot N accumulation, but it revealed big variation even at the same shoot N accumulation at harvest. Milled-rice protein content decreased with increasing INUE. N accumulation in the milled rice increased at an almost constant proportion of 45.5 percent of the shoot N accumulated at harvest, showing slight decresing proportion with the increasing shoot N accumulation.

Rice yield and protein content have been shown to be highly variable across paddy fields. In order to characterize this spatial variability of rice within a field, the two-year experiments were conducted in 2002 and 2003 in a large-scale rice field of $6,600m^2$ In year 2004, an experiment was conducted to know if prescribed N for site-specific fertilizer management at panicle initiation stage (VRT) could reduce spatial variation in yield and protein content of rice while increasing yield compared to conventional uniform N topdressing (UN, ,33 kg N/ha at PIS) method. The trial field was subdivided into two parts and each part was subjected to UN and VRT treatment. Each part was schematically divided in $10\times10m$ grids for growth and yield measurement or VRT treatment. VRT nitrogen prescription for each grid was calculated based on the nitrogen (N) uptake (from panicle initiation to harvest) required for target rice protein content of $6.8\%$, natural soil N supply, and recovery of top-dressed N fertilizer. The required N uptake for target rice protein content was calculated from the equations to predict rice yield and protein content from plant growth parameters at panicle initiation stage (PIS) and N uptake from PIS to harvest. This model equations were developed from the data obtained from the previous two-year experiments. The plant growth parameters for this calculation were predicted non-destructively by canopy reflectance measurement. Soil N supply for each grid was obtained from the experiment of year 2003, and N recovery was assumed to be $60\%$ according to the previous reports. The prescribed VRT N ranged from 0 to 110kg N/ha with average of 57kg/ha that was higher than 33kg/ha of UN. The results showed that VRT application successfully worked not only to reduce spatial variability of rice yield and protein content but also to increase rough rice yield by 960kg/ha. The coefficient of variation (CV) for rice yield and protein content was reduced significantly to $8.1\%\;and\;7.1\%$ in VRT from $14.6\%\;and\;13.0\%$ in UN, respectively. And also the average protein content of milled rice in VRT showed very similar value of target protein content of $6.8\%$. Although N use efficiency of VRT compared to UN was not quantified due to lack of no N control treatment, the procedure used in this paper for VRT estimation was believed to be reliable and promising method for managing within-field spatial variability of yield and protein content. The method should be received further study before it could be practically used for site-specific crop management in large-scale rice field.

Mulberry being the only food of silkworm, Bombyx mori L., is of great economic importance to the silk industry, The success in cocoon production mainly depends on the supply of quality leaves in sufficient quantity. In mulberry, where the economic product is leaf, the uptake of nitrogen from soil is very heavy and high responses to application of nutrients have been reported. Nitrogen supports vegetative growth particularly the leaf biomass. Variation in nitrogen harvest index and other physiological and yield contributing traits were estimated in five mulberry genotypes. Considerable variation was observed for nitrogen harvest index, protein yield per plant and harvest index. The correlation studies indicated the protein yield per plant was significantly correlated with leaf yield, nitrogen content in leaf, nitrogen harvest index and harvest index. The broad sense heritability estimates revealed that harvest index showed highest heritability (88.07%) followed by nitrogen content (82.52%), protein yield (70.28%) and nitrogen harvest index (66.52%).

단백자원으로서 가장 중요한 작물인 대두의 자실수량, 단백 및 유분수량이 품종별로 파종기 및 석회시용량의 차이에 따라서 어떻게 영양을 받는가를 구명하기 위하여 우리나라 중부지방의 주요대두품종 충북백, 육우 003 및 장단백목을 공시하여 파종기를 5월 22일(대두단작재배) 및 6월 11일(맥후작재배) 및 7월 1일 (만파재배)로 달리하고 석회시용량을 10a당, 0.5kg, 100kg으로 다르게 처리하여 본 시험을 1969년 서울대학교 농과대학 부속농장에서 실시하였다. 본 시험성적에서 나타난 대두의 수량형질, 단백 및 유분수량에 대한 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 공시된 품종중 육우003의 자실수량이 가장높았다는데 이는 육우003에 주당협수가 다른 품종보다 현저히 많다는 데에서 기인되었다. 단백함량은 충북백>육우003>장단백목의 순위였고 지유함량은 장단백목>충북백>육우003의 순위였으나 단위면적당 단백수량 및 지유수량은 자실수량이 많았던 륙우003가 가장 많았다. 그러나 이와같은 품종간 수량차이는 파종기에 따라서 각각 다르게 나타나고 있으므로 설계재배에 있어서는 품종과 파종기간의 관계를 크게 고려하여야 할 것이다. 2. 제1파종기와 제2파종기간에 자실수량차이는 없었으며 만파재배인 제3파종기에서는 자실수량이 현저히 감소되었다. 이와같은 현상은 제3파종기에서 1주당협수의 감소가 현저했기 때문으로 고찰된다. 단백질함량과 지유함량은 파종기에 따라 별로 변화하지는 않았으나 단백수량 및 지유수량은 제3파종기에서 자실수량의 감소와 함께 현저히 감소하였다. 3. 석회시용량의 증가에 따라서 분지수 협수가 증가하였으며 자실수량도 증가하였다. 본 시험에서는 자실수량이 석회 100kg/10a 시요구에서 가장 높았다. 단백함량도 석회시용량을 증가함에 따라 증가하였으나 지유함량은 석회무시용구가 가장 높았다. 단백수량은 석회시용량의 증가에 따라 자실수량 및 단백함량이 같이 증가되었기 때문에 현저히 증수되었으며 지유함량은 자실수량의 증가에 의해서만 증수되었다. 4. 수량형질간의 상관관계를 보면 경장과 주당경중, 100립중 및 자실수량간에 주당경중과 주당맥수 및 자실수량간에, 주당분지수와 100립중간에, 주당협수와 자실수량간에, 100립중과 단백함량간에는 고도의 정(+)의 상관관계를 인정할수 있었으며, 주당협수와 100립중간에는 부(-)의 상관관계가 있었다.
