  • Dormant rice seeds were treated with different levels of ethyl methanesulfonate(EMS) and sown directely on the well managed seed beds and the ontogenetically different tillers of $_{x}\textrm{M}_1 plants were marked as they are developed. The biological effects of $_{x}\textrm{M}_1 plant and mutation frequency of $_{x}\textrm{M}_2 were investigated. utation frequency evaluated with tiller groups and $_{x}\textrm{M}_1 sterility, differs from the results reported with radiation treatment. Hence, selection of $_{x}\textrm{M}_1 panicle of primary or secondary tillers could be recommended for increase mutation frequency in $_{x}\textrm{M}_2 generation.

  • Transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 from rattlesnakes (rsTRPA1) and boas (bTRPA1) was previously proposed to underlie thermo-sensitive infrared sensing based on transcript enrichment in infrared-sensing neurons and hyper-thermosensitivity expressed in Xenopus oocytes. It is unknown how these TRPA1s show thermosensitivities that overwhelm other thermoreceptors, and why rsTRPA1 is more thermosensitive than bTRPA1. Here, we show that snake TRPA1s differentially require Ca2+ for hyper-thermosensitivity and that predisposition to cytosolic Ca2+ potentiation correlates with superior thermosensitivity. Extracellularly applied Ca2+ upshifted the temperature coefficients (Q10s) of both TRPA1s, for which rsTRPA1, but not bTRPA1, requires cytosolic Ca2+. Intracellular Ca2+ chelation and substitutive mutations of the conserved cytosolic Ca2+-binding domain lowered rsTRPA1 thermosensitivity comparable to that of bTRPA1. Thapsigargin-evoked Ca2+ or calmodulin little affected rsTRPA1 activity or thermosensitivity, implying the importance of precise spatiotemporal action of Ca2+. Remarkably, a single rattlesnake-mimicking substitution in the conserved but presumably dormant cytosolic Ca2+-binding domain of bTRPA1 substantially enhanced thermosensitivity through cytosolic Ca2+ like rsTRPA1, indicating the capability of this single site in the determination of both cytosolic Ca2+ dependence and thermosensitivity. Collectively, these data suggest that Ca2+ is essential for the hyper-thermosensitivity of these TRPA1s, and cytosolic potentiation by permeating Ca2+ may contribute to the natural variation of infrared senses between rattlesnakes and boas.

  • Dormant one-year-old ginseng roots were subjected to a range of stratification temperatures and time to define effective limits to these parameters and to quantify their effect on terminating dormancy. Effective storage temperatures tested ranged from $0^{\circ}C\;to\;9^{\circ}C.$ A low percentage of roots produced tops with as few as 30 days in stratification; however, 75 to 90 days were required for 100 percent emergence. Days to emergence, after planting, decreased with increased days in storage thru the maximum storage time of 120 days. The number of days of dormancy was relatively constant, near 126.5 days, over the range of effective temperatures and acceptable storage times. The minimum period of dormancy was associated with 75 days in storage at $3^{\circ}C.$ Root growth rate, after emergence, was greatest following 105 days of stratification. The frequency distribution of emergence with days in stratification suggests the potential of selecting for strains of ginseng with low chilling needs for satisfying dormancy requirements.

  • In order to clarify the relationship between the activity and age of vacular cambium in the rhizome of Botrychium ternatum, the cambia of the 6th and 10th internodes from its shoot apex were compared ultrastructurally and histochemically. The cambium in the 6th internode had two to four radially arranged cells in each row, and the cells are radially flattened and had thiner tangential walls than radial. The cambial cells were ultrastructurally characterlized by the presence of a large vacuole, few storage materials such as starch grains and lipid droplets, and various cell organelles such as mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulums and dictyosomes in cytoplasm. On the other hand, the cells of cambium in the 10th internode showed irregular arangement and somewhat enlargement in radial plane. The cells were filled with numerous storage materials and small vacuoles and had few cell organelles except for mitochondria. In addition, the activity of acid phosphatase appeared in the cambium of the 6th internode but of the 10th. From the above results, it is clear that the vascular cambium of the 6th internode was active and that of the 10th was dormant. Thus we reached a conclusion that the rhizome of '||'&'||'trychium ternatum has determinate cambium.

  • This study was to elucidate the relation between the periodical requirement of growth factors(Yang et al., 1993) and the synthesis of RNA and protein during the germination of Streptomycn coefic%r A3(2) in mineral liquid medium(ISP-4) without addition of growth factors. As results, The germination time was about 10 hr, and meanwhile, periodical nutritional requirement was verified to be repeated with interval of 2 hr. Spore size was enlarged with time but its number was rather decreased. Spore could be deviJed into viable, dormant, and dead state. In such a germination process it was found that RNA and protein were being synthesized periodically when spores were stained with AO and INT methods and observed under the fluorescence microscope. Those syntheses were coincided with the period of nutritional requirement. Hence, it was discllssed that spore population in early germination would need amino acids related to protein synthesis.

  • To elucidate the role of tow environmental factors, temperatures and photoperiod, in diapause induction and development of the dark grey cutworm, Agrotis tokionis B., field and laboratory experiments were implemented. As larvae entered diapause later, the diapause duration became shorter resulting in the synchronization of pupation of the test population. The summer diapause of this insect was assumed to be obligatory because every mature larvae had to experience summer dormant period at all experimental conditions of temperature and photoperiod. It was suggested that the diapause stage could be divided into two different phases in relation to temperature reaction. as the temperatures examined, the duration of diapause was shortened by higher temperature in the early phase, while it was shortened by lower temperature in the late phase. Th diapause period was the shortest under short-day condition (LD 8:16)

  • It is very important to prolong the lifetime of wireless sensor networks by using their limited energy efficiently, since it is not possible to change or recharge the battery of sensor nodes after deployment. LEACH protocol is a typical routing protocol based on the clustering scheme for the efficient use of limited energy. It is composed of a few clusters, which consist of head nodes and member nodes. Though LEACH starts from the supposition that all nodes have data transferred to a head, there must be some nodes having useless data in actual state. In this paper we propose a power saving scheme by making a member node dormant if previous sensed data and current data is same. We evaluate the performance of the proposed scheme in comparison with original clustering algorithms. Simulation results validate our scheme has better performance in terms of the number of alive nodes as time evolves.

  • Heavy metal treatment on the fertilized frog eggs before the first cleavage results in a quantitative alteration in the number of PGCs. The formation of PGCs is inhibited by a limited range of heavy metal during the early embryonic development. Total doses of lead above 70ppm and doses of cadmium above 4ppm result in a partial reduction of germ cells at the mitotically dormant stage. After this stage the germ cell number increases almost at the same rate as the untreated control tadpoles. In contrast, on mercury treated eggs, total doses above 0.8ppm cause more damage to germ cell formation. Their proliferation rate thereafter seems to be lower compared with the others. These facts seem to suggest that the heavy metal treatment on frog eggs prior to the first cleavage division is not highly effective in the complete elimination of PGCs in constrast with UV irradiation, even though cytolysis of the tissue occurs in the tadpoles.

  • In order to find out the effect of five kinds of cultural treatments in fall crop production of potatoes the experiments were carried out with Simabara cultivar at Chonan in 1976. Sprouting of dormant seed pieces were induced by soaking in 2ppm GA and 250ppm Ethrel mixed solution for 60 minutes. Seed pieces with longer sprouts at transplanting, and increasing of urea(nitrogen) application from 10 to 30 Kg per 10a resulted better growth, yields, and quality. Application of total nitrogen at one time on 24th July(transplanting date) resulted lower emergence, yields, growth, and quality as compared with divided application on 24th July and 15th August and 5th September. Higher transplanting than 60$\times$20cm or 70$\times$17cm resulted slender growth and lower yields. Deeper mulch with wheat straw (from 4 to 12cm) induced lower maximal earth temperature in summer and higher minimal earth temperature in autumn.

  • There is a growing concern about the possible increase in inter-annual variation of minimum temperature during the winter season in Korea. This view is strengthened by frequently reported freezing injury to dormant fruit trees, while warmer winters have prevailed recently. The January minimum temperature record at fourteen weather stations was analyzed for 1951-2000. The results showed no evidence of increasing standard deviation at 3 locations between 1951-1980 and 1971-2000, while the remaining 11 stations showed a trend of decreasing standard deviation for the two periods. An empirical model explaining the spatial variation of the standard deviation was derived by regression analysis of 56 stations' data for 1971-2000. Daily minimum temperature and the site elevation may account for 68% of the observed variations. We applied this model to restore the average standard deviation of the January minimum temperature for 1971-2000, and the result was used to produce gridded minimum temperature data for the recurrence interval of 10 and 30 years at 250m resolution. A digital form of the plant hardiness zone map may be developed from this product for site-specific selection of adapted plant species.
