Methyl jasmonate (MeJA) is a signal molecule in the activation of defense responses in plants. In this study, we isolated 15 MeJA-inducible genes by subtractive hybridization. These genes encode two myrosinase-binding proteins, five lipase-like proteins, a polygalacturonase inhibitor, a putative chlorophyll-associated protein, a terpene synthase, a dehydroascorbate reductase, an ascorbate oxidase, a cysteine protease, an O-methyltransferase, and an epithiospecifier protein. Northern analysis showed that most of the Chinese cabbage genes are barely expressed in healthy leaves, but are strongly induced by MeJA treatment. We also examined whether these MeJA-inducible genes were activated by ethethon, BTH, and Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato (Pst), a nonhost pathogen of Chinese cabbage. The results showed that none of the MeJA-inducible genes was strongly induced by ethephon or by BTH. The genes encoding lipase-like proteins and a myrosinase-binding protein were weakly induced by Pst. Other MeJA-inducible genes were not activated at all by the pathogen.

Effect of bombardment of the growing film by energetic particles on its properties is know over many years and is widely used for modification of the film properties. Despite of this there are no final answers on such questions as: what is the mechanism of compositional changes that take place for some compound films deposited under the ion bombardment, how the ion bombardment influences the epitaxial growth, what mechanisms govern the growth of the film on its early stages during deposition under the ion bombardment. The role of composition of film-forming species in formation of film structure is barely investigated or even not investigated at all. Experimental evidence and discussion of the influence of ion bombardment and composition of film-forming species on structure and composition of compound films are briefly considered in the review.

This research explored contemporary cities and children's lives in picture books by a survey of 71 picture books published and translated into Korean from 1996 to 2006. These books represented city or urban life as their settings with children or personified animals as their main characters. They were classified by four categories. Results were the city space that most frequently appeared in the picture books were streets (73%) including downtown (38%) and back streets (6%). Emotions displayed by children in the city were mainly negative feelings (60%) including fear, worry, sadness, and boredom. The most important issue was alienation (28.5%). Main characters barely managed to cope with life in the city (76%).

A holography technique optically reconstructs a three-dimensional object in space to provide a natural sense of depth and volume to the observer, thereby providing an ultimate 3D image capable of solving the problem of "vergence-accommodation conflict" occurring in a conventional stereoscopic imaging system. In this paper, we present a technical framework for measuring the performance and evaluating the quality of a holographic display, which enables a quantitative measurement of the optical and physical properties that affect the performance and quality of a holographic display. In addition, we provide the trend regarding standardization related to holographic display measurements. Although this trend has barely started, research activities related to holographic display measurements and quality evaluations are expected to grow in the near future.

Three marine heterotrophic flagellates from intertidal sediments of Gwang-Am beach and Garorim Bay, Korea were identified as Neometanema parovale Lee and Patterson 2014, Stephanopogon pattersoni Lee et al. 2014 and Thaumatomastix sp. These species are reported taxonomically for the first time from Korea, and are described with illustrations and micrographs. Diagnostics of these species are as follows. Neometanema parovale (Euglenozoa): size in vivo, $10{\sim}23{\mu}m\;long$ with 22 pellicular strips, ingestion apparatus barely visible by light microscopy and two flagella pointed in different directions when moving. Stephanopogon pattersoni (Percolozoa): size in vivo, $20{\sim}33{\mu}m\;long$, with 6 ventral and 1 ventro-lateral ciliary rows, and three barbs. Thaumatomastix sp. (Cercozoa): size in vivo, $14{\sim}17{\mu}m$ with body scales and spines, and two flagella with one naked and one scaled.

In this study, volumes of shrinkage and porosity of A356.2 alloys during casting were analyzed as a function of melt temperature, pouring diameter, mold temperature, and Sr content. The temperature of the melt barely affected the shrinkage and porosity formation. The pouring diameter determined the pouring rate, and it was proportional to the shrinkage, yet no relationships with the density of porosity were observed. When the mold was heated at $400^{\circ}C$, shrinkage and porosity in the alloy increased above the one in the mold without heating. However, the mold without heating experienced interior shrinkage and the porosity was mainly distributed near interior shrinkage. The addition of Sr to the melt resulted in more shrinkage and less porosity.

Recently, various kinds of study on light weight structure are performing in the world. The Al honeycomb sandwich structural type adopt for improvement of lightness and structural stability to major part structure of aircraft or spacecraft. Adhesion badness properties of adhesive and adhesion properties of fillet mainly studied about al honeycomb structure. But study for adhesive properties of sandwich construction with surface treatment of Aluminum alloy barely performed. In this study, adhesive film was used between Al and honeycomb core of honeycomb panel[1]. The study for adhesive properties of sandwich construction with surface treatment of AA 5052 skin was performed.

This study was undertaken to compare those 4 most commonly used incisions for exposure of fractures of the infraorbital rim and the orbital floor. The patient's age ranged from 19 to 67 years, the majority being in the 2nd decade. There were 17males and 1 female. Three orbital rim, 5 lower eyelid, 7 subciliary and 3 combined conjunctival-lateral canthotomy incisions were reviewed. Following points were the summury of author's experience. 1. The average scar following any of four incisions is barely noticeable. 2. Adequate fracture exposure was achieved with lower eyelid, orbital rim, subciliary and combined conjunctival-lateral canthotomy incisions. 3. One transient ectropion following subciliary incision occurred in 29-years old man with prolonged postoperative eyelid edema.

Spalling is defined as damages to concrete exposed to high temperature during fire, causing cracks and localized bursting of small pieces of concrete. As the concrete strength increases, the degree of damage caused by spalling becomes more serious due to impaired permeability. It is reported that polypropylene(PP) fiber has an important role in protecting concrete from spalling, and the optimum dosage of PP fiber is 0.2%. However, this study was conducted on non-reinforced concrete specimens. The high-temperature behavior of high-strength reinforced concrete columns with various concrete strength and various quantity of PP fibers is investigated in this study. The results revealed that the ratio of unstressed residual strength of columns increased as the concrete strength increased and as the quantity of PP fiber increased from 0% to 0.2%. However, the effect of PP fiber quantity on residual strength of column was barely above 0.2%.

There is no single or simple answer for effective communication between laboratory technician and clinical dentist. Love-hate could be used to describe the relationship between dentists and their labs. Great lab work can make a dentists life much easier and can result in getting many referrals. However, if the lab work is not up to par and/or late, it can add stress and agony to a dentists practice. Also the opposition is right. If the preparations are calibrated, the impressions clear, and the bite registrations accurate, most labs can do their work reasonably well. Unfortunately, many cases received by labs are barely adequate, especially when it comes to reading margins, which are frequently created by the imagination of the person trimming the dies. In other words, both dentists and lab technicians need to be able to understand how each party operates so that solutions to problems can be found. Effective communication with the laboratory is critical if any degree of success is desired.
