With the advent of age that people spend more time and money on leisure activities, there is increasing interest in professional sport games. The location of large scale sport facilities has substantial impacts on existing transportation pattern because the facility attracts and generates massive traffic volume within a short period of time. This study aims to develop a mode choice model of leisure trips of which the destinations are a sport facility. A structured SP (stated preference) survey questionnaires were developed through an experimental design, and professional sport spectators were asked to state their preference in the choice of transport mode to the sport facility. The survey results show that public transportation is preferred to passenger cars for their trip to big sports event, implying that the convenience of back home trip after the event is an important factor of their mode choice. This study is a rare research on the trip pattern to sports complex in Korea, which provides policy implications on the provision of mass transit including subway system to large scale sport complexes. And it is also expected that this study contributes to future researches on leisure trip pattern.

The fauna and the distribution of plant parasitic namatodes were investigated by smapling about five hundred grams of soil around roots of mulberry trees from 929 mulberry fields in Korea. Of fourteen genera detected on mulberry fields, Paratylenchus aciculus, P. projectus, P. morius, Helicotylenchus dihystera, Meloidogyne arenaria were found to be parasitic to mulberry. Among them Paratylenchus species were the most abundant in mulberry fields, but Tylenchorhynchus sp., Aphelenchus sp., Helicotylenchus sp., and Meloidogyne sp. were also observed in high frequency. Meloidogyne species were observed in high frequency in Jeonbuk, Gyeonggi and Jeonnam, Helicotylenchus sp., in Gyeongnam and Gyeonggi, Xiphinema sp., in Jeonbuk and Jeonnam, and Paratylenchus sp., in Gyeonggi, Gyeongbuk, Gyeongnam, and Jeonnam. The growth of mulberry was poor as the increase of density of Paratylenchus sp.

Plant-parasitic nematodes were surveyed at peach orchards in Gyeongbuk province for three years from 2000 to 2002. Species, density, frequency, Simpson's index, Shannon and Wiener index, and prominence value were analyzed. Plant-parasitic nematodes were isolated from 97 orchards out of 124 orchards. More important plant-parasitic nematode genera on peach were Tylenchorhynchus nudus, Criconemoides informis, Paratylenchus elachistus, Pratylenchus vulnus, and Helicotylenchus digonichus. Aphelenchus sp., Tylenchus sp., Heterodera sp., Scutellonema sp. were found, but were not important. Root-knot nematodes were not found even though they were serious in foreign countried.

Orchid fleck virus (OFV) is an unassigned plant virus in the family Rhabdoviridae. OFV was isolated from Cymbidium sp. showing oval necrotic lesions on their leaves in Korea, and designated as OFV-NHHS1. The complete nucleotide sequence of the RNA1 (6,413 nt) (GenBank accession no. AB516442) and RNA2 (6,001 nt) (GenBank accession no. AB516441) was determined in this study. RNA1 and RNA2 contained five and one ORF respectively. RNA1 encodes nucleocapsid (N) of 49 kDa, ORF2 of 26 kDa, ORF3 of 38 kDa, ORF4 of 20 kDa and glycoprotein (G) of 61 kDa proteins, whereas RNA2 encodes a single polymerase of 212 kDa. OFV-NHHS1 shared extremely high similarity of 98.6-100% and 98.9-99.6% in nucleotidle and amino acid sequences with a Japanese isolate, OFV-so, respectively. However, the N, G and L of OFV-NHHS1 revealed 6.9-19.3%, 7.3-12.0%, and 13.4-26.6% identities to those of 29 Rhabdoviruses, respectively. To survey the infection rate of OFV in commercial orchids in Korea, 51 Cymbidium sp., 10 Phalaenopsis sp., 22 Oncidium sp. and 21 Dendrobium sp. plants that showed typical viral symptoms were collected. RT-PCR with specific primers for detection of Cymbidium mosaic virus (CymMV), ORSV and OFV showed high infection rate by ORSV alone and double infection by ORSV and CymMV. One of the orchids tested was infected with OFV. This is the first report of the complete nucleotide sequences of OFV isolated in Korea.

Helminthological parasites for inhabitants in Boeun-Gun, Chungbuk province were survyed. Total infection rate was 21.4% and helminth ova of-seven species were observed: Clonorchis sinensis 11.7%, Metagonimus sp. 7.0%, Echinostoma hortense 2.7%, Taenia sp. 2.3%, Ascaris lumbri-coides 0.8%, Trichuris trichiura 1.6% and Enterobius vermicularis 3.5%. Infection rate of food-transmitted helminths (C. sinensis, Metagonimus sp. E.hortense, Taenia sp.) was 76.4% (42/55), soil-transmitted helminths (A.lumbricoides, T. trichiura) was 7.3% (4/55), contageous helminths(E. vermicularis) was 16.3% (9/55). Multiple infection rate was 30.9% and most of them were limited in snail-transmitted helminths(C.sinensis, Melagonimas sp., E. hortense). Infection rate of male (18. 3%) was higher than those of female (3.1%). Intensities of C.sinensis and Metagonimus sp. were light or moderate, showed 530 and 444 by mean E.P.G. respectively. In this survey, we newly found the small endemic areas of E.hortense, which was previously reported sporadically in Korea other than in Chungbuk province.

The Purpose of this study is to analyze the impact of telecommuting-the use of telecommunications technology to perform work from remote sites- on the transportation system. It examined the effects of telecommuting on commuter travel. After reviewing case studies of foreign countries and their telecommuting characteristic, two types of survey, RP(Revealed Preference) and SP (Stated Preference), were carried out in order to analyze the impact of telecommuting on traffic. The RP survey examined respondents'attitudes toward information technology and the characteristics of their work. The SP survey asked respondents what conditions would make them want to become a telecommuter. It was found that higher salaries and communication subsidies would induce more people to telecommute. Overall, it was found that if telecommuting were to be executed in Seoul, 49.1% of workers would become telecommuters, which would result in a 14,407 billion won reduction in direct and indirect transport costs per year. This research proves that traffic congestion can be reduced effectively by instituting telecommuting as an option for workers.

Survey was conducted on the kinds and densities of pests associated with stored garlic collected from farms of major garlic production areas from 1994 to 1995 in Korea. Aceria tulipae, Rhizoglyphus sp., Ditylenchus dipsaci, and Tyrophagus putrescentiae were frequently detected with high densities and Tarsonemus bilobatus and Aphelenchus avenue showed relatively low detection rates and densities. Detection rate of A. tulipue was 38% in 1994, but the rate was 65% in 1995. Number of the mite ranged from 1 to 4,500 per scale. Detection rate of Rhizoglyphus sp. was 63% in 1994, but the rate was 13% in 1995 and average number of the mite ranged from 1 to 135 per scale in 1994. Garlics damaged by Rhizoglyphus sp. showed decaying symptom. T~rophagusp utrescentiae was detected from 22 farms among 32 farms surveyed in 1994 and from 21 farms among 39 farms surveyed in 1995. However, number of the mite on garlic scale was relatively lower than the other mites and its damages on stored garlic was not determined.

This study assumes a vehicle choice model based on the multinomial model and analyzes the vehicle choice behaviors of consumer. An SP survey targeting drivers was implemented and data was collected for model estimates, with the possible choice options of the survey takers limited to gasoline, HEV, PHEV, and EV vehicles. The explanatory variable mostly displayed a significance level of under 5%, and excluding variables for price and fuel the remaining variables were all consistent with the logical direction with the plus (+) sign and the results were determined to be rational. Consumers selecting mid-size & full-size vehicles are able to afford more than consumers that selected other vehicle types, so there was relatively little consideration given to low fuel costs when compared to vehicle price. For this reason, it was determined that for the full-size vehicle model the fuel variable could be disregarded. Socio-economic variables that were statistically significant were the age and infor variables for the sub-compact & compact, the age, infor and inc3 variables for the mid-sized & full-size vehicles.

As preventive measures for bonsai exports, nematodes were isolated from 55 bonsai samples of five coniferous species (Chamaecyparis pisifera, Juniperus chinensis, Pinus densiflora, Pinus thunbergii, and Taxus cuspidate) from all 15 bonsai gardens in Korea. Nematodes belonging to 21 genera in 7 orders were isolated from the 55 bonsai samples. Among plant-parasitic nematodes, Tylenchus spp. was the most frequently isolated (14.9%), followed by Ditylenchus spp. (10.5%), Aphelenchoides spp. (9.5%), Aphelenchus sp. (5.5%), Criconemoides sp. (4.0%), Helicotylenchus sp. (0.7%), Hemicycliophora sp. (0.7%), Mesocriconema sp. (0.7%), Tylenchorhynchus sp. (0.7%), and Paratylenchus sp. (0.4%). Among nonparasitic nematodes, Cephalobina was the most frequently isolated nematodes (26.5%), followed by Rhabditida (19.3%), Dorylaimida (17.8%), Pangrolaimida (14.5%), Plectida (6.5%), Tryphylida (6.2%), Mononchida (3.3%), Alaimida (2.9%), Monhysterida (2.5%), and Triplonchida (0.4%). Based on these results, we conclude that there is no problematic plant-parasitic nematode in bonsai gardens of Korea.
