A new resistant cabbage variety 'CT-171' to Fusarium wilt was bred by crossing $A337MSBC_5$ with resistance to the disease and 397-$G_6$ with good density and color. 'CT-171' was selected after combining ability, seed gathering and regional adaptability test in 2008. For breeding of resistant varieties, we investigated the development of Fusarium wilt on cabbage seedlings inoculated with Fusariumoxysporum f. sp. conglutinans by root dipping inoculation method. As a result, 'CT-171' showed higher resistance to Fusarium wilt than 'Asiaball' used as control. The maturity of new variety was 58 days and was faster than control and well suited for autumn cultivation because of cold resistance. The anthocyanin pigment of plant was not revealed. The weight, height and width of head were 1.5 kg, 14 cm and 15 cm, respectively and the core size was 5.7 cm and stable in various cultivation environments. 'CT-171' which showed good agricultural character and resistance to Fusarium wilt filed for variety protect right in Korea Seed & Variety Service on February 2013. The new variety will be appropriate for export and domestic consumption.

The main objective of this study was to characterize physico-chemical properties, sensory property and oxidative stability of safflower seed obtained by various roasting temperature and time. The contents of water soluble solids decreased in the higher roasting temperature and time. Sensory evaluation of safflower seed roasted in various conditions showed significant differences in taste, color, flavor and palatability. The safflower seed roasted at $190^{\circ}C$ for 20min had the best palatability. At the change of Hunter's values, L values were decreased, and a, b and ${\Delta}E$ values were increased in the higher roasting temperature and time. The content of free sugars such as sucrose and raffinose were reduced significantly in higher roasting time of $190^{\circ}C$ and $210^{\circ}C$. During the storage period after roasting treatment, peroxide values (POV) were highly increased after eight months at the all treatment except for $150^{\circ}C$. Therefore, it is inadequate over eight months after roasting treatment.

The yield and quality of black medick seeds(Medicago lupulina L.) produced from different fertilization and flowering position was investigated was investigated to develop the technology of seed vigor maintenance. Number of flowers and seeds, 100 seeds weight, yellow seed percentage, and large seed percentage were higher in seeds produced from stems than in those from branches. Increase of nitrogen resulted in a higher rate of yellow and large seeds as well as 160 seeds weight. Germination rate was the highest (56.9%) in the yellow seeds harvested from stems which were grown with a treatment of lower level of nitrogen and higher level of phosphorus. Malformed seedlings were frequently observed among the seedlings grown from seeds which were produced only with phosphorus.

Microwave energy (2450 MHz) was applied to extract health-effective component (HEC) from grape seed. Three different solvents approved for grape seed extract such as water, ethanol and acetone, were confirmed in their microwave-heating properties and by which extraction efficiencies were determined. Microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) was performed under different parameters; microwave power : (0, 50, 100 and 150), time : (1, 3, 5, 7, and 9 min), the sample to solvent ratio : (1:20, 1:10, 1:5 and 1:2.5), and particle size(whole, 20, 40 and 60 mesh) and the subsequent extracts were used for determining their physicochemical properties, such as total yield : (TY), total phenolics : (TP), catechin content : (CC), electron donating ability : (EDA), and browning color. The heating properties of solvent demonstrated the optimal ranges of microwave and time as 100 W and 2 to 6 min. The TY and HFC content were higher with increasing powers in water and ethanol solvent, while HFC content were lower in acetone at over 100 W. The longer of extraction time up to 5 min, the higher extraction efficiency. Based upon the overall MAE efficiency and solvent recovery, it was found optimal to use 10 times volume of ethanol for 10 mesh of seed particle at 100 W.

The objective of this study was to investigate the content of phenolic compounds and their contribution to antioxidant activity in the seed coats, dehulled and whole black and yellow soybeans. The total phenolic and total anthocyanin contents were analyzed. FRAP, DPPH and ABTS assays were carried out to determine the antioxidant activities. The 100-seed weight and color values were also analyzed. Black seed coats had significantly greater total phenolic and total anthocyanin contents as compared to whole beans, dehulled beans, and yellow seed coats. Moreover, black seed coats exhibited the highest antioxidant activity among the samples, regardless of the utilized method. The antioxidant activities determined in all assays positively correlated with the total phenolic ($0.980{\leq}r{\leq}0.991$) and anthocyanin contents ($0.990{\leq}r{\leq}0.997$) as well as among themselves ($0.992{\leq}r{\leq}0.996$). It is anticipated that the information generated from this study will help support the development of soybean products for improving health.

This study was conducted to obtain the fundamental information on the relationship between sugar content variation and other major characteristics in colored-soybean strains collected in Korea. Sugar content varied from 8.3% to 12.1%, and averaged to be 10.1% in collected colored-soybean strains. On the basis of maturity, soybean growth types were distributed 0.5%, 1%, 5.7%, 16%, 19%, 22%, 14%, and 19% in maturity group 0 (less then 115 days), group I(116 to 123 days), group II (124 to 131 days), group III (132 to 139 days), groupIV(140 to 147 days), group V (148 to 155 days), group Ⅵ(156 to 163 days), and group Ⅶ(over 164 days), respectively. Most of colored-soybean strains were in the middle and late maturity group(maturityIII group toⅦ). Sugar content was tended to be higher in soybean seeds of late than early maturity group. Difference in sugar content was not present according to the seed coat color, whereas strains with bloom seed was higher in sugar content than those with non-bloom seed. Higher seed sugar content was shown in green seed embryo than yellow one. Total sugar content was correlated negatively with protein content (-0.29$^{**}$), positively with oil content (0.21$^{**}$) and growth period(0.36$^{**}$) in all collected colored-soybean strains, and within respective maturity group except early maturity group strains, total sugar content was correlated significantly with protein, oil, ADV, and other characteristics.stics.

The purpose of this comparative study is to investigate the differences of growth behaviors (height, weight, yield capacities etc.) and germination characters (induced photo-dormancy) among the three different species of Arnaranthus sp. The results obtained are summarized as follows. The growth of the cultivar of A.hypochondriacus was more vigor than that of the wild plant of A.retroflexus during the whole life cycle. The fresh weight, dry weight, yield capacity of A.hypochondriacus were much more higher than those of the others two species (A.retroflexus and A.Cruenthus). There are very different germinability formation and induced dormancy patterns between the cultivar and wild plant during seed formation periods. The cultivar of A.hypochondriacus was not induced primary dormancy in the any seed formation stages but wild plant of A.retroflexus was induced deep true dormancy. We suggested that these differences occured by the sum of different absorption of solar energy spectrum by the different seed colors between the cultivar (white color seed) and wild (black seed). And we confirmed the different absorption spectrum of the three different Arnaranthus sp. seeds.

In order to preserve the freshness of vegetables and to reduce the rate of decay, grapefruit seed extract (GFSE), a natural microorganism growth inhibiting agent, was applied during the preservation process of heat treated carrot and spinach. To investigate synergic effect of heat and GFSE treatment, carrots and spinaches were treated with or without 10 ppm of GFSE at $70^{\circ}C$. Surface color, texture and microbial counts of the samples were measured during storage at $4^{\circ}C$. GFSE showed an effective inhibitory activity against aerobic bacteria and yeast which might be involved in the decay of vegetables. Heat treatment at 2 min at $70^{\circ}C$ could also well preserve the color and texture of the vegetables. From the results, optimal concentrations of GFSE were 10 ppm and 50 ppm with heat treatment of 2 min $70^{\circ}C$ for the growth inhibitory effect to aerobic bacteria and yeast and preservation of color and texture.
