Soil-borne fungal pathogens such as Verticillium and Rhizoctonia can colonize in the stem tissue of plant through root and lead to wilting symptoms of plant by blocking. water transportation. During the colonization of Rhizoctonia solani in the vascular tissue of tomato stems, particularly, phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) gene induction pattern was cyclized showing peak induction at two different time points (10 and 80 h) after fungal spores inoculation in vivo. In leaves or roots, however, no such cycling pattern was observed. The first induction peak may be due to an initial sporulation events leading to a second induction peak by a proliferation of fungal spores to the upper stems or other tissues from an initial spore trapping sites. Tomato PAL gene was also dramatically induced by wounding, light illumination and mercury chloride treatment but was not cyclized. Mercury chloride showed the earliest induction with all tissues even at half an hour after treatment.

As a result of the current population concentrations in urban centers, demand for intercity transportation is increasing rapidly. Railway transportation is becoming popular as an intercity transportation because of its timely service, travel speeds and transport efficiency. Among the many railway systems, the innovative and environmentally friendly maglev system has been rated very highly as the next-generation intercity railway system. Linear induction motors are widely used for the propulsion of maglev trains because of their light weight and low construction costs. The urban maglev that was recently completed in Incheon airport site employs a 110km/h class linear induction motor. However, this system was designed to meet requirements for inner-city operations and is not suitable as an intercity transportation system, which requires medium to high speeds. Therefore, this study deals with the characteristics and designs of linear induction motors used for the propulsion of maglev trains that can be used as intercity trains. Rail car specifications for high-speed trains have been presented, and the characteristics of linear induction motors that can be used for the propulsion of these trains have been derived using the finite element method (FEM).

Production of camptothecin ((PT) from callus cultures of Camptotheca acuminata Decne was affected by light and culture conditions. Among the culture media tested, modified B5 medium containing 3% (w/v) sucrose, 2 mg/L B,4-D, 2 times of MS medium vitamins, 500 mg/L casein hydrolysate, 250 mg/L myo-inositol, 0.05% (w/v) activated charcoal, and 0.15% (w/v) gelite was used for callus induction . The highest cell growth and CPT production were obtained in dark and green light condition, respectively. Photoperiod has no effect on cell growth and CPT production. Both cell growth and CPT production were also influenced by combination ratio of red and blue light .Cell growth and CPT production were the highest in the ratio of red and blue light,90:10.

In general, unstable phenomena of induction motor are oftenly appeared at low speed and light load. This paper discribes eigenic unstable regions of I.M. itself by computer simulations and the results are compared to experimental ones. And also the optimal design parameters of I.M. which the unstable reg ion can be minimized are determined.

Using double immunodiffusion and immunoelectrophoretic techniques, attempts were made to detect any protein changes in leaf tissues of a short-day plant, Pharbitis nil Chois. variety Violet during floral induction under 8 hr light, 16 hr dark cycles. Immunoprecipitin systems shwoed at least four proteins newly appeared in the induced leaf tissues. Accumulation of the proteins were observed as the induction proceeded.

When an induction motor is lightly loaded, the efficiency can be very substantially improved by controlling the air gap flux. Thus in the system which requires constant speed under either normal load or light load, it is possible to save energy by means of controlling the air gap flux. In this paper, the required relationships between stator current and rotor slip frequency for optimal efficiency control is derived and the improved control loop is suggested.

Somatic embryos were induced from immature cotyledons and cultured on a MS medium containing 40mg/L 2,4-D. The maximum induction of embryos was obtained from immature cotyledons in a size of 3-4mm, and the highest frequency was obtained in the induction medium at pH 7.0. For embryo development, embryogenic tissues were transferred to a MSM6AC and MSM6 media. Developing embryos were placed at 27$^{\circ}C$with dim light (20$\mu$$molm^{-2}$$s^{-1}$) provided by cool fluorescent tubes (3-D wavelength light is better than standard light). Somatic embryos were clearly developed from globular stage to cotyledonary stages. The color of embryo may be a useful parameter for estimation of embryo quality. When the embryo becomes mature, embryo will be ready for desiccation in order to induce roots and shoots of embryos.

In this paper, we designed the cylindrical type light source that had a electromagnetic principle of inductively coupled plasma, and measured its electrical-optical properties. Using the principle of transformer, electrically equivalent circuit of cylindrical type light source was analyzed. According to the parameters of electromagnetic induction which were diameter of coil with $0.3\~1.2\;mm{\Phi}$, number of turns with $4\~12$ turns, distance with $40\~120$ mm and RF power with $10\~150$ W, the electrical and optical properties were measured. When diameter of coil was $0.3\;mm{\Phi}$, number of turns was 8 turns and distance was 40 mm, the highest brightness of 29,730 $cd/m^2$ was shown with RF power 150 W. The relationship between electromagnetic induction and plasma discharges was shown by mode transition from E-mode to H-mode.

Background: LIGHT (TNFSF14) is a member of tumor necrosis factor superfamily and is the ligand for TR2 (TNFRSF14/HVEM). LIGHT is known to have proinflammatory roles in atherosclerosis. Methods: To find out the expression pattern of LIGHT in atherosclerotic plaques, immunohistochemical analysis was performed on human carotid atherosclerotic plaque specimens. LIGHT induced atherogenic events using human monocytic cell line THP-1 were also investigated. Results: Immunohistochemical analysis revealed expression of LIGHT and TR2 in foam cell rich regions in the atherosclerotic plaques. Double immunohistochemical analysis further confirmed the expression of LIGHT in foam cells. Stimulation of THP-1 cells, which express TR2, with either recombinant LIGHT or immobilized anti-TR2 monoclonal antibody induced interleukin-8 and matrix metalloproteinase(MMP)-9. Electrophoretic mobility shift assay demonstrated that LIGHT induces nuclear localization of transcription factor, nuclear factor $(NF)-{\kappa}B$. LIGHT induced activation of MMP-9 is mediated by $NF-{\kappa}B$, since treatment of THP-1 cells with the $NF-{\kappa}B$ inhibitor PDTC (pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate) completely blocked the activation of MMP-9. Conclusion: These data indicate that LIGHT is expressed in foam cells in atherosclerotic plaques and is involved in atherogenesis through activation of pro-atherogenic cytokine IL-8 and destabilization of plaque by inducing matrix degrading enzyme.

적색 LED를 이용한 들깨의 개화억제를 위한 일장연장처리 기술을 개발하기 위하여 적색광에 대한 들깨의 개화와 생육반응을 검토하였다. 들깨는 적색광에 의한 일장연장 처리로 개화가 억제되었으나 초적색광 조사로 개화하여 광가역성을 나타냈다. 인공생육실 환경하에서 적색광 $0.177{\mu}mol/m^2/s$ (PAR : $0.62{\mu}mol/m^2/s$)로 일장연장 처리시 들깨의 개화가 억제되었다. 비닐하우스 시험포장에서 적색광 $0.2{\mu}mol/m^2/s$ 처리(PAR : $0.7{\mu}mol/m^2/s$)는 관행의 백열등 30 Lux 처리와 같이 개화하지 않고 영양생장을 지속하였다. 적색 LED장치를 이용한 일장연장 처리는 관행의 백열등 처리보다 들깨의 초장은 3%, 엽수는 7%, 엽생체중은 21%, 엽면적은 19% 증가시키는 경향이었다.
