  • This study was conducted to evaluate the prediction of sensory attributes of tobacco smoke by the use of volatile oil components of tobacco. For analytical and sensory evaluations, twelve aging tobaccos (i.e., 3 crop years; 1998, 1999, 2000, and 4 stalk positions) were prepared in flue-cured and burley tobaccos. 61 volatile oil components and 5 sensory attributes such as irritation, impact, after taste, bitter and green were investigated. Irritation of flue-cured tobacco, and irritation and impact of burley tobacco were significantly increased with the ascending stalk position, whereas after taste of burley tobacco was significantly decreased. Significantly positive correlations among irritation, impact, and bitter were observed in flue-cured tobacco. A significantly positive correlation between irritation and bitter was observed, significantly negative correlations between after taste and irritation and between after taste and impact were observed in burley tobacco. Except for green of burley tobacco, all probabilities of multiple linear regression equations between volatile oil components of tobacco and sensory attributes of tobacco smoke were significant(P$\leq$0.05). This study suggests that the multiple linear regression equations may be useful to predict the sensory attributes of tobacco smoke with a few selected volatile oil components of tobacco.

  • Flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) has been used for the edible oil in Korea. The evaluate the effect of plant growth retardants on flaxseed yield, oil content, and gibberellin level, chloromequat chloride (CMC), paclobutrazol (PBZ), and prohexadione-Ca (PHC) were used as plant growth retardants in this study. These plant growth retardants were foliar-sprayed to flax plant at 55 days after seeding. The concentrations of each plant growth retardant were as followed: CMC 250, 500, 1000 ppm, PBZ 40, 80, 160 ppm and PHC 500, 1000, 2000 ppm. PHC treatment to forming bolls was more stimulated than CMC and PBZ. The highest ripened seed rate was observed in PHC treatment at 2000ppm. The high see yields were obtained in PHC treatment following PBZ and CMC, in turn. Seed yield that significantly increased in PBZ and PHC was found to be increased 12.4 ~ 23.9% as compared to the control. The PHC showed higher flaxseed production and oil yield than that of CMC and PBZ. The results obtained in the present study suggest that higher concentration of plant growth retardant (PHC) increased flaxseed yield and oil content. The optimal concentration of PHC treatment was observed in 2000 ppm. It concludes that the foliar application of PHC 2000 ppm may be useful for the increasing oil and higher seed production in flax plants.

  • This study was conducted to obtain the fundamental information on antioxidant component as affected by process of grain filling in different plant types of sesame. Sesamin and sesamolin as antioxidant components, oil content and seed weight were investigated for two plant types with different by branching habit. The sesamin and sesamolin contents in grains followed a pattern of increase immediately after flowering in branch type and monocapsule habit than non-branch type and tricapsule habit. But they started to decrease around 45 days after flowering, which oil content and seed weight continued to increase until maturity. The sesamin content increased quickly up from 10th to 40th day after flowering and showed almost maximum at 43th day after flowering. The sesamolin content increased quickly up from 20th to 30th day after flowering and showed almost maximum at 45th day after flowering. The oil content increased quickly up from 20th to 30th day after flowering and showed almost maximum at 47th day after flowering. The seed weight increased quickly up from 20th to 40th day after flowering and showed almost maximum at 48th day. The sesamin content, sesamolin content, oil content and seed weight showed almost maximum at from 43th to 48th day after flowering. So that this period was considered to be of physiological maturity.

  • Output traits centered on improved plant-based products will find their way to consumers in such ways as nutritionally enhanced foods, therapeutic proteins for disease treatment and vaccines, bio-industrial products, modified oil quality and biofuels. Significant progress in biotechnology has occurred over the last several decades. The importance of output traits development and production using biotechnology will impact not only agribusiness, but also pharmaceutical and food industries. The objective of this paper is to review briefly the current status of output traits development in crop plants using nutrients and pharmaceuticals as examples.
