  • Sweet corns are enjoyed worldwide as processed products and fresh ears. Types of sweet corn are based on the gene(s) involved. The oldest sweet corn type has a gene called "sugary (su)". Sugary-based sweet corn was typically named "sweet corn". With its relatively short shelf life and the discovery of a complementary gene, "sugary enhanced (se)", the sweet corn (su only) was rapidly replaced with another type of sweet corns, sugary enhanced sweet corn, which has recessive homozygous su/su, se/se genotype. With the incorporation of se/se genotype into existing su/su genotype, sugary enhanced sweet corn has better shelf life and increased sweetness while maintaining its creamy texture due to high level of water soluble polysaccharide, phytoglycogen. Super sweet corn as the name implies has higher level of sweetness and better shelf life than sugary enhanced sweet corn due to "shrunken2 (sh2)" gene although there's no creamy texture of su-based sweet corns. Distinction between sh2/sh2 and su/su genotypes in seeds is phenotypically possible. The Involvement of se/se genotype under su/su genotype, however, is visually impossible. The genotype sh2/sh2 is also phenotypically epistatic to su/su genotype when both genotypes are present in an individual, meaning the seed shape for double recessive sh2/sh2 su/su genotype is much the same as sh2/sh2 +/+ genotype. Hence, identifying the double and triple recessive homozygous genotypes from su, se and sh2 genes involves a testcross to single recessive genotype, chemical analysis or DNA-based marker development. For these reasons, sweetcorn breeders were hastened to put them together into one cultivar. This, however, appears to be no longer the case. Sweet corn companies began to sell their sweet corn hybrids with different combinations of abovementioned three genes under a few different trademarks or genetic codes, i.g. Sweet $Breed^{TM}$, Sweet $Gene^{TM}$, Synergistic corn, Augmented Supersweet corn. A total of 49 commercial sweet corn F1 hybrids with B73 as a check were genotyped using DNA-based markers. The genotype of field corn inbred B73 was +/+ +/+ +/+ for su, se and sh2 as expected. All twelve sugary enhanced sweet corn hybrids had the genotype of su/su se/se +/+. Of sixteen synergistic hybrids, thirteen cultivars had su/su se/se sh2/+ genotype while the genotype of two hybrids and the remaining one hybrid was su/su se/+ sh2/+, and su/su +/+ sh2/+, respectively. The synergistic hybrids all were recessive homozygous for su gene and heterozygous for sh2 gene. Among the fifteen augmented supersweet hybrids, only one hybrid was triple recessive homozygous (su/su se/se sh2/sh2). All the other hybrids had su/su se/+ sh2/sh2 for one hybrid, su/su +/+ sh2/sh2 for three hybrids, su/+ se/se sh2/sh2 for three hybrids, su/+ se/+ sh2/sh2 for four hybrids, and su/+ +/+ sh2/sh2 for three hybrids, respectively. What was believed to be a classic super sweet corn hybrids also had various genotypic combination. There were only two hybrids that turned out to be single recessive sh2 homozygous (+/+ +/+ sh2/sh2) while all the other five hybrids could be classified as one of augmented supersweet genotypes. Implication of the results for extension service and sweet corn breeding will be discussed.

  • The sexual discourse has been frequent, but the subjects of it have been limited to the young, and the sex of women and that of the old people, until now, have been overlooked. According to the data in 2,000 of the Korea Statistic Service, the older-than-sixty-five-year people consist of 37.4% men and 62.6% women. Of them, the older-than-seventy-year people consist of 33.8% men and 55.2% women. The data show the fact that as the age of the old people is higher, the number of old women is enlarging. Paying attention to the above-mentioned tendency, this study conducted a survey about the aspects of the sexual consciousness of old women. The purpose of study was focused, through the survey, on discovering the ways of old women's recognization about their sexual desire, and on presenting basic data to developing the programs which could solve the problems derived from the discovery. That is to say, the purpose of it was to prevent the sexual desire's distortion and suppression of old women, if they had any, and to present basic data to developing the programs which could convert their recognization of sex. The objects of the survey were the sample group of 301 people inhabiting in Hwaseong City, Seongnam City, Yongin City, and Suwon City, chosen out of 375,298 old women of 614,316 older-than-sixty-five-year people in Kyeonggi Province (Kyeonggi Province homepage, 2002). The data were collected by the questionnairers' interviews in the fields of old men's resting house, churches, temples, old men's niversities and so like, from September 19th to September 31th in 2003. The questionnairers as volunteers were taught the prior education, being prepared for the survey about old women's sexual consciousness. The contents of education were composed of the understanding of old women, the ways of questionnairing, and the items of questionnaire. The outcomes of the survey are following; First, concerning general items, the old women of the sample group answered that they felt greatly the difficulties of health(36.5%), economy(12.0%), and loneliness(11.3%) in turn. The 48.2% of them answered that they were healthy, but the 62.3% answered that they were suffering various illnesses. The 24.4% answered they were economically rich, and the 23.9% answered they were working. The 53.5% were living alone due to divorce or death. The 71.1% had been living for more than ten years. The 83.1% believed in their own religion. Second, the 43.8% of the sample group admitted the necessity of a heterosexual friend and sexuality The 39.0% felt sexual desire, and the 33.9% were experiencing sexuality. As the obstructing factors in performing sexuality, the objects of sample group pointed out shamefulness or morality(28.7%), anxiety that such deeds might afflict their health or the problem of health itself(20.2%), weakening of sexual potency(16.9%). This outcome shows that they have ambiguous notions about their sexual alienation and manner. Third, the 33.7% of the sample group admitted sexual education and sexual counsel, and of those that admitted them, the 85.2% said that they would take part in sexual education if it were held. It shows that the demand of sexual education and sexual counsel need be fulfilled. Therefore, through this study, the following two important suggestions can be drawn: First, systematic sexual education programs should be developed, considering old people's developing steps containing their rights of health and sex. Also those should be educated through kindergartens, primary, middle and higher education institutions. Second, sexual education and sexual counsel on prospective old people and present old people should be performed.

  • 미륵사는 백제 무왕(재위 600~641)이 창건한 사찰로 이와 관련한 창건 기록이 "삼국유사(三國遺事)" 기이(紀異) 제이(第二) 무왕조(武王條)에 언급되어 있다. 서원의 미륵사지서탑은 해체 전 6층까지의 일부가 남아있었으며 미륵사지 내의 유일한 현존 건축물로서 최근 사리장엄 발견으로 639년이라는 건립연대가 밝혀졌다. 또한 백제 사찰의 발굴조사 자료가 축적되고 동아시아의 학술적 교류가 활발해지면서 미륵사지서탑의 조영을 당시 불탑 건축의 발전 과정과 연관시켜 해석할 수 있는 가능성이 한층 높아졌다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 미륵사지서탑의 축조에 적용된 구조원리와 1층 평면의 형성을 중심으로 6~7세기 불탑 건축의 발전과정에 있어서 대형의 불탑건축이 어떻게 이루어졌는지에 관한 기초적 연구를 시도하였다. 연구 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 미륵사지서탑은 내부와 외부가 독립적인 개념으로 축조되었는데 이는 당시의 고층 불탑건축에서 나타나는 구조원리의 표현으로 보여진다. 영녕사 목탑지에서 확인된 탑실심체와 같이 내부의 구조체를 형성하는 개념과 유사하게 내부 적심을 형성하고 외부 부재를 부가하는 방식으로 축조된 것이라 판단된다. 둘째, 미륵사지서탑에서는 상부의 적심부와 동시에 심주석이 동시에 존재하는 혼합 구조를 표현하고 있는데 이는 중국의 영녕사 목탑과 같은 실심체의 구조보다 발전된 것으로 조팽성 불사의 심초석과 항토 실심체의 구조와 유사한 것으로 판단된다. 이러한 혼합 구조는 황룡사 목탑이나 일본의 목탑과 같이 내외진을 전부 목구조로 형성하고 심주가 독립적으로 지지되는 구조 방식보다 선행되는 것으로 볼 수 있다. 셋째, 미륵사지서탑의 경우 1층에 십자형의 공간이 형성된 것은 심주석에 위치한 사리 봉안에 의한 것일 가능성이 높다. 이는 심주석을 중심으로 하는 4방향의 구심적 공간이며 사리의 본질적 의미에 기인하여 백제 6~7세기의 횡혈식 석실분과 유사한 방식으로 축조되었다. 횡혈식 석실분의 축조기법은 사리가 봉안되어 있는 상징적 공간을 효과적으로 표현하기 위한 방법인 동시에 석재를 사용하여 축조된 서탑에 있어서 재료적 동일성으로 인하여 수용이 더욱 용이하였던 것으로 추정된다.
