$SO_2$에 의한 조경수목(造景樹木)들의 피해(被害)의 감수성(感受性)을 조사하기 위하여 무처리(無處理), 0.5, 1.5 및 2.5ppm의 $SO_2$ 가스를 각각 하루에 4시간(時間)씩 6일간(日間) 처리(處理)하면서 가시피해율(可視被害率)과 내생(內生) ethylene 발생량(發生量)을 측정(測定), 분석(分析)하였다. $SO_2$ 농도(濃度)에 따른 묘목(苗木)들의 가시피해율(可視被害率)은 0.5ppm 이하에서는 조사대상(調査對象) 수종(樹種) 모두 피해증상(被害症狀)이 없었으며, 1.5와 2.5ppm 수준(水準)에서 경시적(經時的)으로 변화(變化)가 나타났는데, 고농도(高濃度) 일수록 피해율(被害率)이 높았으며, 평균(平均) 피해율(被害率)은 튜립나무가 가장 높았고 다음으로 스트로브잣나무, 은행나무, 소나무, 잣나무의 순(順)이었다. $SO_2$ 처리(處理)에 의한 내생(內生) ethylene의 발생량(發生量)을 보면, 고농도(高濃度) 처리구(處理區)에서는 저농도(低濃度)에 서보다 ethylene의 발생량(發生量)이 많았으며, 발생량(發生量) 최대점(最大點)에 도달되는 시간(時間)도 빨랐다. Ethylene 발생량(發生量)은 튜립나무가 은행나무에서보다 많았으며, 침엽수류에서는 스트로브잣나무, 소나무, 잣나무 순(順)으로 많았다. 특히 가시피해율(可視被害率)이 80% 이상(以上)이었던 스트로브잣나무는 가시피해율(可視被害率)이 증가(增加)함에 따라 ethylene 발생량(發生量)도 직선적(直線的)으로 증가(增加)하다가 가시피해율(可視被害率)이 40-50% 이상에 도달한 이후 ethylene 발생(發生)이 오히려 감소(減少)하는 경향(傾向)을 나타내었다.

Environmental conditions may cause the quality change of fruits during distribution after harvest. In order to prevent the damage or quality change of fruits for distribution, the characteristic of fruits affected by the environmental conditions such as temperature, humidity under various distribution conditions should be known. This research was performed to analyze how the environmental conditions affect the factors such as weight loss rate and ethylene production of the peach under several distribution conditions. Environmental conditions of the actual distributed route were evaluated and the data obtained from the conditions were used for the simulated environmental tests. Regression models of the weight loss rate and the ethylene production of peach were developed and used in predicting peach quality. The weight loss rate of the peach estimated by the ASHRAE data was shown the higher value on the transportation temperature condition than on the low and room temperature conditions. The weight loss rate and the ethylene production of the peach on the simulated distribution conditions were measured and the measured weight loss rate of peach was the smaller than the theoretically estimated one. The regression models of the weight loss rate and the ethylene production were developed respectively.

Biosynthesis of the phytohormone ethylene is under tight regulation to satisfy the need for appropriate levels of ethylene in plants in response to exogenous and endogenous stimuli. The enzyme 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid synthase (ACS), which catalyzes the rate-limiting step of ethylene biosynthesis, plays a central role to regulate ethylene production through changes in ACS gene expression levels and the activity of the enzyme. Together with molecular genetic studies suggesting the roles of post-translational modification of the ACS, newly emerging evidence strongly suggests that the regulation of ACS protein stability is an alternative mechanism that controls ethylene production, in addition to the transcriptional regulation of ACS genes. In this review, recent new insight into the regulation of ACS protein turnover is highlighted, with a special focus on the roles of phosphorylation, ubiquitination, and novel components that regulate the turnover of ACS proteins. The prospect of cross-talk between ethylene biosynthesis and other signaling pathways to control turnover of the ACS protein is also considered.

'Formosa' plums were picked at three maturity stages according to skin redness, treated with $1{\mu}L{\cdot}L^{-1}$ 1-MCP at $10^{\circ}C$ for 24 h and then stored for 21 days at $10^{\circ}C$. Ethylene production, respiration rate, firmness, color, TSS, TA, and ethanol concentration were determined. Total phenolic content, total flavonoid content, and antioxidant capacity were determined periodically by separating the flesh from the peel. Ethylene production and respiration rate were strongly inhibited in all stages of the 1-MCP-treated fruit, while ethylene production dramatically increased in all stages of non-treated fruit until 11 days after harvest, after which it decreased until the end of the experiment. The respiration rate of the stored fruit increased for 11 days in stages 1 and 2 and for 7 days in stage 3 and decreased after. 1-MCP-treated fruit in all stages showed delay in fruit quality changes such as firmness, TA, skin color, and ethanol concentration, but non-treated fruit did not. Total phenolic contents, total flavonoid contents and antioxidant capacity of 'Formosa' plums were not affected by 1-MCP treatment or maturity stage. However, those values were higher in the peel than in the flesh.

Effects of polyamines on ethylene biosynthesis were studied in synchronized suspension cultured cells from leaf segments of Nicotiana tabacum L. Putrescine, spermidine and spermine inhibited the endogenous production of both ACC and ethylene. Those production was more remarkably inhibited by spermidine and spermine than putrescine. These results were the same tendency with those obtained from exogenous application of SAM and ACC. Polyamines had more inhibitory effect on hte conversion of ACC to ethylene than that of SAM to ACC, but ACC was not accumulated. The inhibition rate of exogenously applied ACC conversion to ethylene was well coincident with that of exogenously applied SAM conversion to ethyene via ACC by polyamines. However, polyamines inhibited more the activity of ACC synthase than that of EFE. From these results we can suggest that polyamines inhibit both steps of SAM to ACC and ACC to ethylene, and more effectively the latter than the former.

Gibberellic acid did not affect ethylene production, whereas gibberellin biosynthesis inhibitors triggered ethylene production in dormant tubers. Gibberellic acid did not induce sprouting of dormant tubers, however, treatment of gibberellin biosynthesis retardants enhanced sprouting rates. Sprouting rate in ancymidol-treated tubers was highest among gibberellin biosynthesis retardants. Sprouting rate of tubers treated with ancymidol increased to $91.4\%$. Batatasin-III content in $GA_3$ treated tuber was increased in the highest concentration $(30{\mu}g\;I^{-1})$. Tubers treated with mepiquat chloride, Batatasin-I was increased steadily, but contents of Batatasin-III and V showed dramatic decrease at the $ 1,000{\mu}g\;I^{-1})$ concentration. This infers that gibberellin biosynthesis retardants play key roles in promoting breaking dormancy on dormant tubers of Chinese yam.

Methyl jasmonate(MeJA)가 녹두(Phaseolus radiatus L.) 하배축과 잎에서 에틸렌 생성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 녹두 하배축 조직에서의 에틸렌 생성은 MeJA의 농도에 비례해서 감소했으며 그 억제 효과는 3시간 이후부터 현저하게 나타났다. 1-Aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) oxidase의 활성에 대한 MeJA의 억제 효과 역시 3시간 이후부터 나타났으며 ACC synthase의 활성에는 별 효과가 없었다. $450\;\mu\textrm{M}$ MeJA가 포함된 배지에서 배양시킨 녹두 하배축 조직에서 옥신 유발 에틸렌 생성은 대조구에 비하여 현저히 억제되었는데 이러한 옥신 유발 에틸렌 생성에 대한 MeJA의 억제 기작을 알아보기 위하여 ACC synthase의 활성과 ACC oxidase의 활성을 조사하였다. MeJA는 옥신이 처리된 조직내 ACC양과 ACC synthase 활성 및 ACC oxidase의 활성을 감소시켰다. 따라서 옥신 유발 에틸렌 생성에 대한 MeJA의 억제 효과는 MeJA가 ACC synthase의 활성 뿐만 아니라 ACC oxidase의 활성을 감소시킴으로써 나타난다고 볼 수 있다. 하배축과는 반대로 $4.5\;\mu\textrm{M}$로 처리한 잎 조직에서의 에틸렌 생성은 대조구에 비해 약 50% 촉진되었으며 옥신에 의해 유발된 에틸렌 생성량은 MeJA에 의해 증가되었다. 잎에서의 MeJA에 의한 에틸렌의 합성 증가는 ACC oxidase의 활성 증가에 기인하였으며 ACC synthase의 효소활성은 변화가 없어TEk. 따라서 MeJA는 녹두의 서로 다른 조직에서 에틸렌 합성에 대해 서로 상반된 효과를 나타내었다.

This study was conducted to determine the effectiveness of silver thiosulfate(STS) in reducing $O_3$ injury to tomato plants(Lycopersicon esculentm Mill. 'Pink Glory'). Two days prior to $O_3$ fumigation, plants were given a foliar spray of STS solution at concentrations of 0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6 mM contained with 0.05% Tween-20. STS concentrations below 0.6 mM were significantly effective in providing protection aginst $O_3$ exposure(16 h at 0.3 ppm). STS reduced leaf injury rate, defoliation of cotyledons, ethylene production and degree of epinasty induced by $O_3$ injury. STS slightly increased ethylene production in non-$O_3$-fumigated plants, but changes of chlorophyll content and transpiration rate on a whole plant basis were not observed. In $O_3$-fumigated plants, STS treatment reduced chlorophyll destruction but did not affect transpiration rate. STS treatment seemed not to affect peroxidase(POD) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity in non-fumigated plants but reduced increasing activity of POD by $O_3$ fumigation. However, such an effect as above was not found in SOD activity. Even though enzymatic protection effects were not confirmed, the fact that reduction of acute injury rate was attained for 16 h fumigation indicates that the phytoprotective effects of STS are not necessarily related to blocking the action of strees-induced-ethylene as an anti-ethylene agent.

아스파라거스는 수확 후 품질변화가 심하여, 보존 전에 1-MCP 등의 전처리를 통하여 상품성 유지효과를 검정하고자 하였다. 아스파라거스를 1-MCP 및 CEPA 처리 후 $7^{\circ}C$에 저장하면서 에틸렌과 $CO_2$ 발생 등을 관찰하였다. 또한 저장전 처리에 따라 발생되는 에틸렌 및 $CO_2$ 발생량을 측정방법에 따라 연속적인 방법과 비연속적인 방법으로 측정하였다. 아스파라거스 유통 중 불량환경을 가정한 CEPA 처리에 의해 에틸렌 가스 발생 및 호흡 특성이 달라지는데 1-MCP와의 혼용처리로 에틸렌의 영향을 상쇄시키는 것으로 나타났다. CEPA 처리는 에틸렌 및 $CO_2$ 가스 발생이 증가하며, 1-MCP 혼용처리로 인해 발생량이 감소하였고 1-MCP 단용처리는 무처리에 비해 에틸렌 발생에 큰 차이가 없었으나, $CO_2$ 발생량을 다소 감소시키는 것으로 나타났다. $CO_2$ 발생에서 연속측정(flow-system)이 비연속적 측정보다 변화 경향이나 처리간의 차이가 명확히 나타났다. 형태적이나 생체중량, 가용성고형물, 삼투몰 농도에 있어서 1-MCP는 CEPA에 의한 영향을 경감시키는 효과는 있었으나, CEPA 처리와 같이 외생적인 에틸렌과 조우하지 않는다면 무처리에 비해서는 큰 효과를 보이지 못하였다. 아스파라거스에서 1-MCP 처리는 불량 환경조건에서 발생되는 외생 에틸렌의 영향을 상쇄시킬 수 있을 것으로 보였으며, 전처리를 통한 상품성 유지가 기대된다.

'Unicon' cherry tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) is one of the most highly perishable horticultural crops due to its high water content and respiration rate. This study was carried out to assess the effect of continuous application of $CO_2$ (control [air], 3%, and 5%) on the quality and shelf life of cherry tomato fruits stored at $10^{\circ}C$ and $85{\pm}5%$ relative humidity (RH) at two maturity stages (pink and red). Continuous application of $CO_2$ did not affect the soluble solids content (SSC) or titratable acidity (TA) of the fruit at either maturity stage during storage. However, there was a significant difference among treatments in terms of flesh firmness, cell wall thickness, pectin content, vitamin C content, skin color, lycopene content, weight loss, ethylene production rate, respiration rate, and acetaldehyde and ethanol production. Fruits treated with 5% $CO_2$ maintained their high quality with regards to vitamin C, skin color ($a^*$), lycopene content, weight loss, physiological parameters (ethylene production rate, respiration rate, and volatile compounds), flesh firmness, cell wall thickness, and pectin content at both maturity stages compared with 3% $CO_2$ treatment and the control. Continuous application of $CO_2$ (5%) reduced the ethylene production rate and the production of volatile compounds during storage. Therefore, cherry tomato 'Unicon' fruit can be stored for two weeks without losing fruit quality at both maturity stages under continuous application of 5% $CO_2$ as a postharvest treatment.
