  • The productivity of rice has been influenced by various abiotic factors including temperature which cause to limitations to rice yield and quality. Rice yield and quality are adversely affected by high temperature globally. In the present study, four Korean four cultivars such as Dongan, Ilpum, Samkwang, Chucheong were investigated in order to explore molecular mechanisms of high temperature at seedling stage. Rice seedlings grown at $28/20^{\circ}C$ (day/night) were subjected to 7-day exposure to $38/28^{\circ}C$ for high-temperature stress, followed by 2-D based proteomic analysis on biological triplicates of each treatment. The growth characteristics demonstrated that Dongan is tolerant while Ilpum is sensitive to high-temperature stress. High temperature has an adverse effect in the seedling stage both in high temperature sensitive and tolerant cultivar. Two-dimensional gels stained with silver staining, a total of 722 differential expressed protein spots (${\geq}1.5-fold$) were identified using Progenesis SameSpot software. However, a total of 38 differentially expressed protein spots were analyzed by LTQ-FT-ICR MS. Of these, 9 proteins were significantly increased while 10 decreased under high-temperature treatment. Significant changes were associated with the proteins involved in the carbohydrate metabolism, photosynthesis, and stress responses. Proteome results revealed that high-temperature stress had an inhibitory effect on carbon fixation, ATP production, and photosynthetic machinery pathway. The expression level of mRNA is significantly correlated with the results obtained in the proteome investigation. Taken together, these findings provide a better understanding of the high-temperature resistance by proteomic approaches, providing valuable insight into improving the high-temperature stress tolerance in the global warming epoch.

  • In order to breed a new P. eryngii cultivar with high temperature tolerance trait to cope with climate change, strains and cultivars were characterized at $20^{\circ}C$ that is $5^{\circ}C$ higher than normal condition followed by screening for the characteristics such as required days to harvest, quality and yield. Monokaryons from the selected strains were crossed. $Da-32{\times}KNR2322-15$ derived from the crosses between KNR2322 having characteristics of short growing day and Da($Ga5Na5-4{\times}KNR2312-7$) having charateristics of high guality and yield at $20^{\circ}C$, showed 14.9 days for harvest, 120.6 g yield, and 7.0 quality in the first trial. The strains were named as Taeyangsongi and cultivated on a large scale to compare with Kenneutari No. 2 at a mushroom farm. Yield of Taeyangsongi (109 g) was significantly different(P=0.001) from Kenneutari No.2. Quality of the new (6.6) and the reference cultivar (3.5) was also statistically different (P=0.001) The brightness of pileus of Taeyangsongi (59.5) was 10 points less than the reference cultivar due to which it has an inability to bear high temperature stress. Thus, PCR reactions with URP2 discriminated between Taeyansongi and reference cultivars (Keneutari No. 2 and Aeryni).

  • Neoporphyra kitoi Ma. Abe, N. Kikuchi, Tamaki, Tom. Sato, Murase, Fujiyoshi & Mas. Kobayashi has been known as an endemic species in Japan. Its high temperature tolerance suggests that it could be advantageous for cultivation. In this study, we collected it from the Ulleungdo island, Korea and transferred it into Pyropia for a new combination, identified as Pyropia kitoi(Ma. Abe, N. Kikuchi, Tamaki, Tom. Sato, Murase, Fujiyoshi & Mas. Kobayashi) D.J. Kim, T.O. Cho & B.Y. Won comb. nov. based on morphological and molecular analyses. Pyropia kitoi is also reported as a new record species in the list of Korean macroalgal flora. Although we didn't observe the emergence of new blades from the rhizoidal cells, which is a key character for this species, our molecular analysis of rbcL revealed that our samples from Korea were congruent with "Neoporphyra kitoi" from Japan and were nested within the clade of Pyropia. The gene sequence divergence between the Korean and Japanese samples was 0-0.2%.

  • Over the last decade, dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) has attracted much attention due to the high solar-to-electricity conversion efficiency up to 10% as well as low cost compared with p-n junction photovoltaic devices. DSSC is composed of mesoporous TiO2 nanoparticle electrodes coated with photo-sensitized dye, the redox electrolyte and the metal counter electrode. The performances of DSSC are dependent on constituent materials and interface as well as device structure. Replacing the heavy glass substrate with plastic materials is crucial to enlarge DSSC applications for the competition with inorganic based thin film photovoltaic devices. One of the biggest problems with plastic substrates is their low-temperature tolerance, which makes sintering of the photoelectrode films impossible. Therefore, the most important step toward the low-temperature DSSC fabrication is how to enhance interparticle connection at the temperature lower than $150^{\circ}C$. In this talk, the key issues for high efficiency plastic solar cells will be discussed, and several strategies for the improvement of interconnection of nanoparticles and bendability will also be proposed.

  • The purpose of this study is to investigate the actual conditions, to find problems, and to present an improvement plan of interior landscape in the subway stationis. Moreoiver, it will presume the possibilties to develop the subway and ways to utilie underground space effectively. The results are summarized as follows A light intensity was recorded 0-100 Lux as the lowest light and 500 Lux below as the highest in 61 subway stations. An average temperature of 12 $^{\circ}C$and an air humidity of 38% were recorded over a 4 month period from January to April, but includes a drastic variaton between -8.5$^{\circ}C$ and 21.5$^{\circ}C$. Soil acidity of pH 7 below and soil moisture of 1-2 wet degree were apeared in subway stations mostly. Plant forms consisted of artificial flower & flower. Plant species were recorded at a total of 54 species and appeared in the order of Araucaria heteropylla, Ophiophogon jaburan, Aspidistra elatior cv. 'Asahi' and Hedera helix. Plant height was, for the most part, below 0.5m. Plant species that was fined of conditions were Palm, Camellia japonica, Araucaria heterophylla as a high plant, dracaena fragrans, dracaena deremensis cv. Wakneckii as a middle plant, and Ophiopogon jaburan, Hedra helix, ytomium falcatum, Aspidistra elatior cv. Asahi as a low plant. It used to water materials such as small pool, small cascade, water cycles and natural materials such as natural rock, small rock, sand, bark and animal materials such as squirrels, birds, goldfish as an object for plants in the subway stations. From these actual conditions, First of all, It must make up physical environments such as light, temperature humidity, soil for plant growth, and is important to chooce suitable indoor plants and draw up systematic management in the subway environments. Also, it change plants frequently and uses variable objects for subway stationi individuatism, Moreover, indoor plants with strong environmental adaptation abities such as shade tolerance, drought tolerance and cold tolerance need to develope variable species possibly. If these improvements occur, utilization and amenity of subway stationis will increase, according to the use of interior landscape.

  • To improve the fermentation characteristics of the haploid starch-fermenting recombinant yeast strain K114/YIpMS$\Delta$R(LEU2/URA3) secreting both $\alpha$-amylase and glucoamylase was rare-mated with polyploid industrial yeast Saccharomyces sp. K35. The K35 strain had good fermentation-characteristics such as ethanol-tolerance, high temperature and sugar-tolerance, and high fermentation rate. Among the resulting 66 hybrids, the best strain RH51 was selected. The RH51 exhibited amylolytic activity of K114/YIpMS$\Delta$R(LEU2/URA3) as well as ethanol and sugar tolerance of K35. The optimum temperature of hybrid RH51 for starch fermentation was 34$\circ$C which was same as that of K35 but different from that (30$\circ$C) of K114/YIpMS$\Delta$R(LEU2/URA3). The optimum pH was 5.0. The optimum size of inoculum was 2% as the pellet (w/v) of yeast cells. The hybrid strain RH51 produced 7.0% ethanol (w/v) from 20% (w/v) soluble starch while K35 formed almost no ethanol, 0.3% (w/v). RH51 strain produced 7.5% (w/v) ethanol after 8 days in a 2.5 l fermenter containing 800 ml of 20% (w/v) soluble starch. The residual starch content in the fermentation medium was 1.68% (w/v), and therefore almost all the starch was fermented completely.

  • The effects of nacl concentration, temperatura, light and growth regulator(GA3, kinetin) on the tuber germination of s. maritimus were investigated. The germination percentage increased with decreasing nacl, showing salt tolerance through time, and with increasing temperature untile 20~30oC light / dark (12/12 hr) of optimal temperature. The multiplication of nacl and temperature on germination percentage and velocity, increased significantly in higher temperature than lower temperature in saline. The germination percentage showed high value in dark condition than in light condition which is the charracteristics of underground organ. and ga3 act as germination stimulator to overcome the inhibitory effect of nacl. The effect of ga3 showed significant differances on tubers of s. maritimus of germination but that of kinetin had a litter sffects on germination. Factors of nacl and temperature interacted significantly and the effects of nacl on germination percentage and velocity depended on temperature condition.

  • Lead-free ferroelectric ceramics are widely researched today for industrial applications as sensors, actuators and transducers. Since $Pb(Zr_aTi_{1-a})O_3$-(PZT) has high Curie temperature($T_C$), high piezoelectric properties near its morphotropic phase boundary(MPB) composition and small temperature dependence electrical behavior, it has been used to commercial materials for wide temperature range and different application fields. According to the tolerance factor concept, since the $Bi^{3+}$ cation with 12-fold coordinate has a smaller ionic radius than 12-fold coordinate $Pb^{2+}$, most bismuth based perovskites possess a smaller tolerance factor. Therefore, MPBs with a higher $T_C$ may be expected in $Bi(Me^{3+})O_3PbTiO_3$ solid solutions. As in lead based perovskite systems, it is clear that we need to explore more materials in simple or complex bismuth based MPB systems. The objective of this study is to investigate the $Bi(Ni_{1_a}X_a)O_3-PbTiO_3(X=Ti^{4+},\;Nb^{5+})$ perovskite solid-solution. For improving the electronic conduction problem, the magnesium and manganese modified system was also studied.

  • The Copper-Clad Laminate (CCL) is a main electronic component of specialtype printed circuit boards (PCBs) such as Silver Through Hole PCB. This CCL should have high reliability under the aging test, and usually the test is done at a higher temperature (110-$150^{\circ}C$) than the normal. Then, this test condition of high temperature may cause such quality problems as hole eccentricity and reduction of distance between part holes. After measuring the CCL shrinkage affected by temperature, the correction factor of a press mold was a, pp.ied to solve these problems. The results showed that the tolerance of hole pitch(${\pm}$$100{\mu}m$) was satisfactory and the internal and external failure costs were reduced by 55%.
