The effective growth of pepper seedlings relies on the growing period and tray used, which both aim to minimize seedling damage during the transplantation process. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of red and green pepper seedling growth in plug and cylindrical paper pot (CPP) trays with different growth periods of the seedlings. Two different seedling growth trays were used for the two varieties of pepper seedlings in the same growing media. The pepper seedling growth rates were investigated at 15, 30, and 45 days for each of variety. Important parameters, e.g., the plant height, fresh weight for the plant and root, number of leaves, leaf length and width, and leaf chlorophyll contents, were measured. During the experiment, the CPP tray maintained uniform seedling growth as compared to the plug tray. CPP trays ensured the height of the seedling, with these results 0.84 to 1.6 times higher than those of the plug tray for all conditions, indicating the good quality of the pepper seedlings. The shoot and root weights were found to be greater with more leaves in the CPP tray seedlings for 45 days compared to the seedlings grown in the plug tray, whereas the green pepper variety showed a greater leaf ratio than the red pepper seedlings. The analysis of pepper seedling growth presented in this study will guide the selection of suitable growth trays and seedling periods for farmers when they undertake automatic pepper transplantation in the field.

Bacterial leaf spot by Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria has been known to cause serious problem in red pepper in Korea. However recent survey showed that most smptoms in the leaves were mixed with two different symptoms one was leaf spot and the other was canker. bacteria isolated from canker were identified as Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis on the basis of biochemical and physiological characteristics. The causal bacteria were non-motile rod-shaped and Gram-positive. The lesions on pepper leaves appeared at first as small blisters or pimple-like white spots which enlarged in size at a later stage. The centers of some of the spots became necrotic and brown and were surrounded by a white halo. Pathogenicity tests were performed on pepper cv. Alchan seedling by spraying of bacterial suspension. During 1997 and 1998 total 17% of 527 fields surveyed were infected by C. michiganensis subsp. michiganensis. The canker of red pepper caused by C. michiganensis subsp. michiganensis was first identified in this study in Korea, and new name "gueyangbyung" was tentatively given to the disease.

Experiments were conducted to determine the method of nioculation and inoculum level, and the optimum age of pepper seedlings for evaluation of resistance to bacterial wilt in pepper. Injection of bacterial suspension(107~108 cells/ml) to the leaf axil of the 3rd or 4th leaf of pepper, and drenching the soil planted with pepper seedling after wounding roots with scalpel, resulted in good varietal difference in resistance to bacterial wilt. PI377688, PI358812 and PI369994 of 298 open-pollinated lines and 10 hybrids tested for resistance to bacterial wilt were highly resistant and such local cultivars as Masan, Anjinbaengi, Kimyongcho and Punggakcho moderately resistant.

Pepper powdery mildew causes increasingly economical damage due to increased cultivation of pepper in greenhouses. To assess resistance of pepper resources against pepper powdery mildew, we developed a novel evaluation formula for pepper resistance against powdery mildew. The evaluation formula named S index is as follows; (number of the highest disease leaf/top leaf number)-(number of the lowest disease leaf/top leaf number). Positive correlation (81%, P = 0.01) between S index and authentic disease leaf rate was observed from the pepper plants infected by powdery mildew. Various pepper species from our genetic resources were evaluated to identify pepper varieties conferring resistance against powdery mild using S-index. Capsicum frutescens accessions 3CA131 and C. baccatum accessions 3CA0162, 3CA174, 3CA176 showed high resistance to powdery mildew, but none of C. annuum was resistant. Results suggest that S-index proposed in this study is useful to assess resistance evaluation of powdery mildew in chili pepper breeding.

The antimutagenic effects of juices from green pepper(GP), red pepper leaf(RPL), red pepper(RP) and sweet pepper(SP) were examined by the Ames method using Salmonella typhimurium TA100. The juice supernatants of GP, RPL and RP showed antimutagenic activities against afltoxin B1(AFB1) in Salmonella typhimurium TA 100. The juice supermatants of GP and RPL also exhibited the inhibitory effects(p<0.05) to the mutagenicities induced by N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine(MNNG) and 4-nitro-quinoline-1-oxide(4-NQO). The juice of RP showed antimutagenic activities against indirect mutagen of AFB1, however, the activity was reduced at higher concentration(5.0%), furthermore, as the adding concentration of sample increased to 5.0%, it exhibited slight comutagenicith on direct mutagen of MNNG. Theantimutagenic activities of GP and RPL juices were reduced significantly after heating at 100℃ for 20min, supposing that the antimutagenic compound(s) in the juices were heat labile.

Procedures for Dietary Fiber(DF) determination were applied to some common vegetables. The samples selected in this study were: Radish(Leaf), Chinese cabbage, Spinach, Shepherd's purse, Red pepper(Leaf), Perilla(Leaf), Soybean(Leaf) and Cabbage. DF was analyzed by the method of detergent fractionation. Values for NDF, ADF, Lignin, Hemicellulose, Cellulose were obtained. NDF for most samples was $12.9{\sim}27.4%$, except Soybean(Leaf) (41.9%), ADP was $7.7{\sim}16.9%$. Lignin was around $1.0{\sim}2.1%$; Red pepper (Leaf) (7.6%), Perillar(Leaf) (5.7%), Soybean(Leaf) (4.2%) were exceptions. $Hemicellulose(NDF{\sim}ADF)$ was about $2.9{\sim}12.0%$, except Soybean(Leaf) (25.0%). $Cellulose(ADF{\sim}Lignin)$ was $6.3{\sim}13.0%$. This paper describes two properties of the fiber of commonly eaten vegetables; Water-Holding Capacity(WHC) and Density. The capacity of the ADP to hold water was estimated. The WHC measurements differed from 6.6g per g of ADP for Red pepper(Leaf) to 10.4g per g of ADP for Radish(Leaf). Radish(Leaf), Soybean(Leaf) had the greatest WHC whereas Red pepper(Leaf), Perillar(Leaf) had the least. Two types of density determinations are shown. Direct (non-packed) values largely correspond with bulk(packed) density.

This study was undertaken to investigate the knowledge and the use of Korea traditional basic side dishes, Jangachies, by housewives. Among the 58 kinds Jangachies, the most well-known Jangachies (above 80% of subjects) turned out to be Perilla leaf, Red pepper leaf, Garlic, Young stem of garlic, Green red leaf, Cucumber and dried Radish Jangachi in the order. In cooking experience of Jangachi, 40% of subjects in Perilla leaf, 28.0% in Green red pepper, 24.8% in Garlic and 24.1% in Red pepper leaf Jangachi have cooked frequently. The proportion of subjests who has bought the marketed Jangachi products were 51.6%. Major problem of that products was pointed out for a sanitary condition, high price and poor taste. If marketed Jangachies were improved over the aspects, the proportion of subjects who would buy the products was 76.2%. The frequency of Jangachi intake was very low on a average due to too salty taste and the difficulty in preparation. The older in age, the more in interest level for Jangachi (p<0.05). 39.6% of subject have had preparation ability of Jangachies. With increasing age (p<0.01), decreasing education level (p<0.01) and those who live in rural area (p<0.05), preparation ability of Jangachi tended to be higher.

Diseases caused by Pepper yellow leaf curl virus infection is considered to be emerging plant diseases in Indonesia in the last five years. One key factor for disease management is the availability of accurate detection of the virus in plants. Polyclonal antibody for Pepper yellow leaf curl Indonesia virus-Bogor (PYLCIV-Bgr) was produced for detection of the virus using I-ELISA and DIBA methods. The antibody was able to detect PYLCIV-Bgr from infected plants up to dilution 1/16,384 and cross reaction was not observed with Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV), Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV), and Chilli veinal mottle virus (ChiVMV). Positive reaction was readily detected in membrane containing Begomovirus samples from Yogyakarta (Kaliurang and Kulonprogo) and West Java (Bogor and Segunung). Infection of PYLCIV-Bgr in chillipepper, tomato, and Ageratum conyzoides was also confirmed using polyclonal antibody for PYLCIV-Bgr in DIBA. Polyclonal antibody for PYLCIV-Bgr is suggested to be included in disease management approach due to its good detection level.

This study was conducted with pot experiment to find out the effect of ginkgo leaf wastes application produced from the pharmaceutical process on the growth and yield of red pepper. Four kinds of ginkgo leaf wastes, the natural dried leaves, the leaves produced from the pharmaceutical process, the dried leaves to remove methanol after the pharmaceutical process, and the leaves washed with water to removal methanol and some activated materials after pharmaceutical process, were treated with two levels of application rates. The growth responses and yield were measured throughout the experimented period. Shoot growth of red pepper was inhibited by all treatment of ginkgo leaf wastes compared to the treatment of NPK and NPK+compost. Red pepper yields were also significantly reduced by treatment of the ginkgo leaf wastes except for the treatment of the water washed ginkgo leaf wastes, 1,000 kg/10a, which showed similar yield to NPK treatment. The major reseon to reduce the growth and yield seemed to be originated from the allelopathic substances of the ginkgo leaves. The organic matter contents of the soil after experiment were slightly increased with the treatment of the ginkgo leaf wastes and compost than that of NPK treatment. Based on these results, this study for using the ginkgo leaf wastes should be done more to utilize the wastes of the pharmaceutical process as a organic fertilizer.

An undescribed Cercospora leaf spot of pepper grown in a greenhouse was observed at Jinju area in 1983. The symptom of this disease showed frog eyes spot on lower leaves of pepper. Leaves and petiole of pepper plant inoculated with spore suspension of this pathogen app­eared leaf spot after 2 weeks and exhibited cicular, brown frog eyes spot. This fungus was grown slowly on PDA and produce condia on infected leaves. The occurrence of this disease was responsi­ble for factors with high temperature and humidity conditions in the ill-ventilated greenhouse. This causal fungus was identified as Cercospora capsici Heald et. Wolf from the shape and length of the conidiophores, the length of the condia, and pathogenic behaviors.
