The regenerative capacities of protoplasts isolated from potato (Solamum tuberosum L.) tubers and tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) mesophyll tissues were examined, and then their intergeneric protoplast fusion was carried out. The potato tuber-derived protoplasts proliferated into the calli some of which showed rudimentary shoot-like structures, which had not been attempted before from tubers, while the tobacco protoplasts were regenerated into the whole plants. Intergeneric protoplast fusion between potato and tobacco was carried out and the heteroplasmic fusion products were formed. The first cell division of some of them was observed after 5 days of culture.

Protopasts were isolated from cultured cells of potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) tuber tissue. The ability of callus formation from the culture cells was higher in cultivars Dejima and Superior than in Shimabara and Irish Cobbler on Lam's medium. Therefore, the former was used as sources for protoplast isolation. Friable calli were transferred to liquid media and cells in exponential phase were used for protoplast isolation. In both of Dejima and Superior, the yield of protoplasts was high in the enzyme solution of 2% Onozuka cellulase and 1% macerozyme. Also, viability of isolated protoplasts was very good. Thus, it seems that these protoplasts would be applicable to various aims of research.

A full-length cDNA encoding dihydroflavonol 4-reductase (st-dfr) of potato was isolated by rapid amplification of cDNA ends, and their expression was investigated from purple-fleshed potato (Solanum tuberosum L. cv. Jashim). The st-dfr exists as a member of a small gene family and its transcripts was abundant in the order of tuber flesh, stem, leaf, and root. The expressions of st-dfr gene were light inducible and cultivar dependant. Transgenic potato plants harboring antisense st-dfr (AS-DFR) sequences were analyzed. The accumulation of mRNA was nearly completely inhibited as a result of introducing an AS-DFR gene under the control of the 35S CaMV promoter into the red tuber skin Solanum tuberosum L. cv. Desiree. The anthocyanin content of the tuber peels of the transgenic lines was dramatically decreased by up to 70%. The possible production of flavonols in the peels of AS-DFR transgenic potatoes was discussed.

The coat protein mediated resistance to potato virus Y is assessed here in transgenic potato plants (Solanum tuberosum L., cv Claustar). Therefore, the corresponding cDNA from tunisian isolate of the virus was cloned into Agrobacterium tumefaciens binary vector. The transgenic lines were subsequently analysed for the presence and expression of the transgene. The CP cDNA copy number was determined for kanamycin resistant plants. Three selected transgenic lines and their S1 progeny resulting from tuber germination showed a high protection level against the virus. These data appear to support the hypothesis that the virus resistance is mediated by the translated viral coat protein expressed in transgenic potato lines.

감자 소괴동 산을 위해 적합한 양담재배방식을 구명코자 분무경, NFT, perlite 및 scoria 배지비을 이용하여 '대지' 품종을 공시하고 생육과 소엽도의 연성 및 준양에 미치는 영향을 조사한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 분무병 방식이 NFT 방식이나 Perlite 및 scoria 배지경에 비해 정식 후 40일과 60일의 지상부 생조이 좋았고, 정식후 90일에는 동윤이 65.4cm, 주당자육가 7.3개로서 가장 많았으며, scoria 배지경은 기윤이 49.5cm, 도상기육 3.2개로서 가장 적었다. 2. 포지장은 분무비에서 30.4cm로 가장 길었고, 주당각지육는 NFT 방식에서 10.5개로 많았다. 3. 정식 후 90일에 주당 괴경수는 분무경에서 67.1개, NFT 62.5개, Perlite 배지경 20.1개, scoria 배지경 18.0개였다. 4. 3g 이상의 괴대 크기 분포는 분무경 72.7％, NFT 62.6％, perlite 배지비 84.1％, scoria 배지경 83.3％로 고협배지경이 높은 분포를 보였으나 주당 괴동수가 적기 때문에 총수양 은 적었다. 5. Perlite 배지경에서 황산된 소괴경은 피일발이이 적고 표피가 매끄러워서 보질의 괴대이 생산되었다.

D-type cyclin은 호르몬과 영양분의 영향을 받아 세포주기의 G1기에서 S기로 전환을 조절하는 인자이다. 우리는 감자에서 이 유전자를 분리 해냈고, 염기서열 분석을 통하여 D3 cyclin으로 분류하였다. 그리고 StCycD3;1이라 명명하였다. 다른 D cyclin유전자가 세포 분열이 활발한 조직에서 발현되는 것과 같이 StCycD3;1은 감자의 괴경, 뿌리, 꽃, 잎, 줄기, 뿌리줄기, 복지에서 다양한 발현 양상을 보였고, 영양분의 하나인 sucrose에 의하여 발현이 유도되는 것을 확인하였다.

Our research work aimed to evaluate cover crop effects of winter rye on soil characteristics, soil conservation, and yield productivities on potato fields with 15% slope during a fallowed period. There were two controls of bared field without any cultivation and conventional potato cultivation without winter rye. Potato cultivation increased soil pH, organic matter, available phosphate, and exchangeable cation regardless of cover crop cultivation. Sub-soil, particularly, all components of soil chemical properties showed higher value in winter rye cultivation than conventional cultivation. Higher soil density was observed on cover crop cultivation than conventional cultivation resulting from root residues of the cover crop both topsoil and subsoil. Cover crop residues positively affected plant growth and reduced the amount of soil erosion by holding the soil. Although severe soil erosion was seen in conventional cultivation, winter rye cultivation declined soil erosion by 47% during the fallow period on potato slope fields. Distinct soil bacterial communities were detected among treatments and some OTU(Operational Taxonomic Unit)s showed significantly higher abundance in winter rye treatment. Total yield and commercial rate demonstrated no significant differences while higher tuber phosphate, K⁺, and Mg²⁺ contents were observed in winter rye cultivation.

In an attempt to establish anti-ulcerogenic activity of potato tubers, inhibitory activity against ethanol- and indomethacin-induced gastric ulcer models in rats was evaluated for the first time. From several varieties of potato tubers including Solanum tuberosum L. cv. Superior (white skin and fresh potato) and two new varieties of (Bora valley and Gogu valley), raw potato juice was prepared and the starch was obtained from each juice by filtration and drying. Upon oral administration to rats, raw potato juice showed more or less inhibitory activity. The starch showed higher and dose-dependent inhibitory activity, suggesting that the active ingredient in raw potato juice may be the starch. Particularly, the starch obtained from the tubers of new potato variety, "Bora valley," with purple color, showed the highest inhibitory activity (62.4% and 37.1% inhibition of ulcer index at 500 mg/kg), while omeprazole (proton pump inhibitor) used as a reference drug showed 74.4% and 75.7% inhibition at 20 mg/kg against ethanol- and indomethacin-induced ulcer formation, respectively. The present study provides a first evidence of anti-ulcerogenicity of raw potato juice and the starch. Especially, the starch from "Bora valley" strongly inhibited ulcer formation in rats. Considering that these are food components, they may be safely used for anti-ulcerogenic nutraceuticals.
