Background: The thermoluminescent dosimeter (TLD) and Monte Carlo (MC) dosimetry are carried out to determine the occupational dose for personnel in the handling of ¹²⁵I seed sources. Materials and Methods: TLDs were placed in different layers of the Alderson-Rando phantom in the thyroid, lung and also eyes and skin surface. An ¹²⁵I seed source was prepared and its activity was measured using a dose calibrator and was placed at two distances of 20 and 50 cm from the Alderson-Rando phantom. In addition, the Monte Carlo N-Particle Extended (MCNPX 2.6.0) code and a computational phantom with a lattice-based geometry were used for organ dose calculations. Results and Discussion: The comparison of TLD and MC results in the thyroid and lung is consistent. Although the relative difference of MC dosimetry to TLD for the eyes was between 4% and 13% and for the skin between 19% and 23%, because of the existence of a higher uncertainty regarding TLD positioning in the eye and skin, these inaccuracies can also be acceptable. The isodose distribution was calculated in the cross-section of the head phantom when the ¹²⁵I seed was at two distances of 20 and 50 cm and it showed that the greatest dose reduction was observed for the eyes, skin, thyroid, and lungs, respectively. The results of MC dosimetry indicated that for near the head positions (distance of 20 cm) the absorbed dose rates for the eye lens, eye and skin were 78.1±2.3, 59.0±1.8, and 10.7±0.7 µGy/mCi/hr, respectively. Furthermore, we found that a 30 cm displacement for the ¹²⁵I seed reduced the eye and skin doses by at least 3- and 2-fold, respectively. Conclusion: Using a computational phantom to monitor the dose to the sensitive organs (eye and skin) for personnel involved in the handling of ¹²⁵I seed sources can be an accurate and inexpensive method.

During visiting North Korea from 2001 to 2005, I have had a few chances to observe and discuss several North Korean scientists for the seed production program and also, the occurrence of potato pests. Healthy seed production, especially in the early generations, e.g. the production of virus-free starting materials as well as in vitro pre-basic seeds (G0) by hydroponics and basic seeds under netted houses according to her new national seed potato program of Academy of Agricultural Science, Pyongyang, North Korea, has been done well so far. Some major pests occurred, however, in the early generations such as pre-basic seed (G0) in greenhouse, basic seed (G1) in screenhouse, foundation seed-I (G2) and even ware potatoes in the fields are Phytopitthora infestans, Spongospora subterrunea, Ralstonia solanacearum, Pythium spp. and some viruses such as Potato virus X, Potato virus Y, Potato leafroll virus, and also larger potato ladybeetle, greenhouse whitefly and potato tuber moth. Therefore, the success of healthy seed production in North Korea will be thoroughly depended on the pest control and the multiplication of virus-free seed stocks in the isolated areas, especially where no infected potatoes are grown.

Aluminium secondary butoxide(ASB)를 출발물질로 하여 졸-겔방법에 의해 소결거 동에 미치는 $\alpha$-Al2O3 seed의 첨가효과에 따른 알루미나의 저온소결 가능성과 알루미나의 상전이에 대하여 TEM, DTA, XRD, FT-IR등으로 고찰을 하였다. TEM 분석결과 초기 생 성물인 boehmite가 비정질에서 단결정질로 진행되어 가고 있음을 확인하였다. 그리고 DTA 분석결과 $\alpha$-Al2O3 seed의 첨가한 경우 seed의 함량이 증가함에 따라 상전이 온도는 점차 낮아졌으며 약 0.4wt%일 때 seed를 첨가하지 않은 시료의 전이온도(약 1126$^{\circ}C$)에 비하여 약 7$0^{\circ}C$ 저하된 약 1056$^{\circ}C$로나타났으며 그 이상의 seedcja가에 있어서는 전이온도에 크게 영향을 나타내지 않았다. 또한 XRD분석결과 $\alpha$-Al2O3 seed를 첨가하지 않은 경우 110$0^{\circ}C$이 상의 온도에서 $\alpha$상이 생성되었음을 알수 있었다. 또한 100$0^{\circ}C$이상의 온도에서 $\alpha$상이 생성 되었음을 나타내는 Al-O 흡수특성 피크가 400~1000cm-1 범위에서 나타내고 있는 것을 FT-IR 분석결과에서도 확인할수 있었다. 그리고 $\alpha$-Al2O3 seed를 약 0.4wt% 첨가시 900~ 95$0^{\circ}C$에서 $\alpha$상이 형성됨을 관찰할 수 있었다.

The present experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of seeding date on agronomic characters including seed weight of soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) at Sunchon, the southern coastal area of Korea. One hundred eighteen native and improved varieties were used in this study. As the seeding date was delayed, the number of days to flowering for the cultivars was reduced. This trend was more obvious in late maturing cultivars(LMC) than in early and medium maturing cultivars (EMC and MMC). Late seeding also resulted in decrease in the number of leaves, stem length, and number of nodes. The heaviest seed weight was obtained with EMC and MMC planted on May, and seed weight decreased with delayed seeding date. Seed weight was positively correlated with number of days to flowering, number of total leaves at flowering, stem length and number of nodes on main stem at maturity. Based on seed weight the cultivars was classified into five types: Type I; Seed weight of the cultivars decreases with delayed seeding date. Type II; Seed weight of the cultivars does not vary with seeding date. Tyep III; Seed weight of the cultivars increases with delayed seeding date. Type IV; Seed weight of the cultivars increases when the seeding date approached the appropriate seeding date, but decreases thereafter. Type V; The reversed type IV. Type I, II, III, IV and V occupied 37, 16, 17, 10 and 20％ of the tested cultivars, respectively.

This paper describes design of cryptographic processor which can execute SEED, DES, and triple DES encryption algorithm. To satisfy flexible architecture and area-efficient structure, the processor has I unrolled loop structure with hardware sharing and can support four standard mode, such as ECB, CBC, CFB, and OFB modes. To reduce overhead of key computation, the precomputation technique is used. Also to eliminate increase of processing time due to data input and output time, background I/O technique is used which data input and output operation execute in parallel with encryption operation of cryptographic processor. The cryptographic processor is designed using 2.5V 0.25 $\mu\textrm{m}$ CMOS technology and consists of about 34.8K gates. Its peak performances is about 250 Mbps under 100 Mhz ECB SEED mode and 125 Mbps under 100 Mhz triple DES mode.

This study was carried out using rats weighing $40{\sim}50\;g$ which were devided into seven groups with various diet compositions emphasizing fat levels of perilla seed oil for the period of 41/2 weeks. The levels of fat in the diet were 5%, 10%, 15% and animals were fed ad libitum. The results are as follows : 1) Yellow pjgmentation of both neck and tail was clearly observed in groups fed 10% and 15% level perilla seed oil without vitamin I supplementation (IV and VII). 2) The growth rate in groups fed 15% level perilla seed oil was reduced as compared to that in groups fed 5% or 10% level perilla seed oil. 3) The mean hematocrit values of 15% level perilla seed oil groups tended to be lower than those of control group, tut the differences were not significant. 4) The serum vitamin I concentration showed different value in various groups, the values of control group were significantly higher than those of perilla seed oil groups-15% level with or without vitamin E supplementation (VI and VII) and 10% level without vitamin E supplementation (IV). According to the results, 10% level-perilla seed oil in the diet can be considered safe if vitamin E is not omitted from the vitamin mixture ana the group fed 15% fat with P/S ratio of 1 appeared to be safe during the experimental period. Finally the long-term studios have to be persued in many aspects by using perilla seed oil in the experimental diet. Because rats are known t4 be quite resistant to the experimental diets, comparative studies using various animal species have to he conducted.

Changes in genetic diversity after seed-tree practice were simulated in test plantation of tulip tree at Sokdal-ri, Banwol-myon, Hwasung-gun, Kyungki Provence. I-SSR markers were analyzed in a total of 305 tulip trees. A total of 89 amplicon variants were observed by PCR with 9 I-SSR primers. Genetic diversity for 305 trees was relatively high (S. I. =0.4532). Individuals originated from the seed orchards in U.S.A. showed the highest level of genetic diversity (0.4530), those from Anyang showed the medium level (0.4152), and those from Cheonbuk showed the lowest (0.3929). Simulation of seed-tree practice accompanied by 2 consecutive thinnings was performed on the basis of morphological characteristics and planted distances of the individual trees, which left 37 trees as candidates for seed-trees. Decreasing rate of genetic diversity within seed sources was greatest for individuals from Cheonbuk (28.3%), moderate for those from Anyang (16.3%), and smallest for those from U.S.A. (8.0%). In spite of little difference in decreasing rate of individuals for the 3 seed sources (87.5~88.2%), large difference in decreasing rate of genetic diversity within seed sources might be due to difference in number of mother trees for the 3 seed sources. For example, whereas individuals originated from the seed orchard in U.S.A., which showed the smallest decreasing rate of genetic diversity, might be originated from relatively large number of mother trees, those from Anyang and Cheonbuk might be originated from relatively small number of mother trees. Although mean of 17.5% of the genetic diversity within seed sources was decreased through 2 consecutive thinnings, a decrease in genetic diversity for the whole individuals (37 trees) was only 6.1%. This observation suggests that the seed-tree practice on the basis of the criteria established in the present study may not result in great reduction in overall genetic diversity of the progenies.

In this paper SEED, the Korea Standard 128-bit block cipher algorithm is implemented with VHDL and mapped into one FPGA. SEED consists of round key generation block, F function block, G function block, round processing block, control block and I/O block. The designed SEED is realized in an FPGA but we design it technology-independently so that ASIC or core-based implementation is possible. SEED requires many hardware resources which may be impossible to realize in one FPGA. So it is necessary to minimize hardware resources. In this paper only one G function is implemented and is used for both the F function block and the round key block. That is, by using one G function sequentially, we can realize all the SEED components in one FPGA. The used cell rate after synthesis is 80% in Altem FLEXI0KlOO. The resulted design has 28Mhz clock speed and 14.9Mbps performance. The SEED hardware is technology-independent and no other external component is needed. Thus, it can be applied to other SEED implementations and cipher systems which use SEED.
