The purpose of this study is to propose the optimum adding rate of freeze-drying beet leaf powder, which has antioxidant components, that have superior DPPH radical extinction effects, in the Sulgidduk, a representative of steamed rice cake, which improve its functionality. According to the measured results on moisture contents and pH levels of Sulgidduk, with added freeze-drying beet leaf powder, the moisture contents have been significantly declined with increasing rates of added beet leaf powder. The pH levels of sample groups are within the range of 6.26-6.13. From the chromatography of measured results, lightness and yellowness have declined and redness have increased along with increasing rates of added beat leaf powder. According to the texture of measured results, the hardness, and chewiness have declined by the increasing the rate of added beet leaf powder. For the storage period, hardness, and chewiness have been inclined, but cohesiveness declines, with increased the storage period, while there are no changes from elasticity. The DPPH contents of Sulgidduk, with added freeze-drying beet leaf powder, inclined by increasing the rates of added beet leaf powder. The sensory test results of color, aroma and fragrance incline with increasing rates of added beet leaf powder. From acceptance test results, the sample group added with 3% receive the highest appraisals.

Studies were carried out to report breeding procedure and characteristics of Fb, a strain of silkworm with abnormal food habit polyphagous. Selection was continued up to the 14th generation toward higher incidence of cabbage leaves feeding variants. In the autumn of 1992(7th generation), selected strain were subjected to severe selection by feeding them on artificial diet that did not contain mulberry leaf powder. The results were clearly positive and reached to higher than 95% of cabbage feeding in the 14th generation. This strain was first discovered by feeding cabbage leaves, but later they were observed to eat some kind of plants like lettuce, Chinese cabbage, radish, beet, apple, persimmon, pear, etc. As described above the procedure, cabbage feeding trait was clearly heritable. The strain responsible for this traits was named Fb.
