This study aimed to investigate the plant growth-promoting and biocontrol potential of a grass culture with Paenibacillus ehimensis KWN8 on tomato. For this experiment, treatments of a chemical fertilizer (F), a bacterial grass culture (G), a 1/3 volume of G plus 2/3 F (GF), and F plus a synthetic fungicide (FSf) were applied to tomato leaves and roots. The result showed that the severity of Alternaria solani and Botrytis cinerea symptoms were significantly reduced after the application of the bacterial grass culture (G and GF) and FSf. In addition, root mortality in G and GF was lower compared to F. Tomato plants treated with G or GF had better vegetative growth and yield compared to F. Application of G affected the fungal and bacterial populations in the soil. In conclusion, treatment with a bacterial grass culture decreased disease severity and increased tomato growth parameters. However, there were no statistically significant correlations between disease occurrence and tomato yields. This experiment presents the possibility to manage diseases of tomato in an environmentally friendly manner and to also increase the yield of tomato by using a grass culture broth containing P. ehimensis KWN38.

Leaves of two-week old seedlings of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) were treated with various concentrations (0∼100 M) of $CdCl_2$ for up to 9 days and subsequent growth of seedlings, symptoms of oxidative stress and isozyme activities of antioxidant enzymes including superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), ascorbate peroxidase (APX) and peroxidase (POX) were investigated. Compared with the non-treated control, Cd exposure decreased biomass but increased Cd accumulation, hydrogen peroxide production and lipid peroxidation as malondialdehyde (MDA) formation in leaves and roots. Further studies on the developmental changes of isozyme activities showed that Fe-SOD, Cu/Zn-SOD and one of three APX isozymes decreased and CAT and one of four POX isozymes increased in leaves, whereas Fe-SOD, one of three POX isozymes and two of four APX isozymes decreased and CAT increased in roots, showing different expression of isozymes in leaves and roots with Cd exposure level and time. Based on our results, we suggest that the reduction of seedling growth by Cd exposure is the oxidative stress resulting from the over production of $H_2O_2$ and the insufficient activities of antioxidant enzymes particularly involved in the scavenging of $H_2O_2$. Further, the decreased activities of SOD and APX isozymes of chloroplast origin, the increased activities of CAT and POX and high $H_2O_2$ contents with Cd exposure might indicate that Cd-induced oxidative stress starts outside chloroplast.

토마토의 생육과 수확량을 예측하기 위한 중요한 요소 중의 하나는 엽면적이다. 이러한 엽면적을 정확하게 예측하는 것은 토마토 식물 생장 평가 모델의 시작이라고 할 수 있다. 이를 위해 본 연구는 토마토 잎의 측정을 통해 엽면적(LA)을 추정하는 효과적인 모델을 확인하기 위해 수행하였다. 토마토 식물 잎 조사를 위해 2주 간격으로 5개체의 토마토 식물체의 전개된 모든 잎에 대해 엽면적(LA), 엽장(L), 엽폭(W), 엽신장(La)를 측정하였다. LA와 토마토 잎 독립변수의 상관관계는 La × W, L × W, La + W, L + W의 식이 강한 양의 관계를 나타냈다. LA 추정은 LA = a + b(La² + W²)을 사용하는 선형 모델이 가장 정확한 추정치를 나타내었다(R² = 0.867, RMSE = 88.76). 9월부터 12월까지 토마토 잎의 위치에 따른 상, 중, 하 엽의 모델을 살펴본 결과, 상, 중, 하로 잎 위치에 따른 모델별 결정계수(R²) 값은 각각 0.878, 0.726, 0.794였다. 상위엽을 바탕으로 추정된 모델의 정확도가 가장 높았는데, 이는 10월 이후 토마토 재배 농가에서 중위엽과 하위엽에 실시한 반적엽의 영향으로 판단된다.

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation in tomato plants by Ralstonia solanacearum infection and the role of hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O_2$) and nitric oxide in tomato bacterial wilt control were demonstrated. During disease development of tomato bacterial wilt, accumulation of superoxide anion ($O_2{^-}$) and $H_2O_2$ was observed and lipid peroxidation also occurred in the tomato leaf tissues. High doses of $H_2O_2$ and sodium nitroprusside (SNP) nitric oxide donor showed phytotoxicity to detached tomato leaves 1 day after petiole feeding showing reduced fresh weight. Both $H_2O_2$ and SNP have in vitro antibacterial activities against R. solanacearum in a dose-dependent manner, as well as plant protection in detached tomato leaves against bacterial wilt by $10^6$ and $10^7$ cfu/ml of R. solanacearum. $H_2O_2$- and SNP-mediated protection was also evaluated in pots using soil-drench treatment with the bacterial inoculation, and relative 'area under the disease progressive curve (AUDPC)' was calculated to compare disease protection by $H_2O_2$ and/or SNP with untreated control. Neither $H_2O_2$ nor SNP protect the tomato seedlings from the bacterial wilt, but $H_2O_2$ + SNP mixture significantly decreased disease severity with reduced relative AUDPC. These results suggest that $H_2O_2$ and SNP could be used together to control bacterial wilt in tomato plants as bactericidal agents.

The present study was investigated the effect of recycled coir organic substrates on the growth of different vegetable crops. The recycled coir had better physical and chemical properties than the new coir. The growth of tomato plant was better on the coir substrate that had been used for 2 years than that on the new coir substrate. The average number of tomato fruits was 108 on the new coir substrate, while it was 179 and 165 on the coir substrate used for 1 and 2 years, respectively. The growth of cherry tomato plant was also better on the coir substrate used for 2 years than that on the new coir substrate. The average number of cherry tomato fruits was 43 on the new coir substrate, while it was 206 and 164 on the coir substrate used for 1 and 2 years, respectively. The growth of brussel sprout was better on the coir substrate used for 3 years than that on the new coir substrate and the average number of brussel sprout leaves was 26.8 on the new coir substrate, while it was 34.3 on the coir substrate used for 3 years. The growth of Korean cabbage improved on the coir substrate used for 1 years compared to the new coir substrate and the number of leaves was 15.1 on the new coir substrate, while it was 24.3 on the coir substrate used for 1 year. Thus, used coir can be recycled to improve vegetable yields compared to using new coirs.

To ascertain the effect of over-expressed maize calreticulin in tomato plant on tobamovirus movement in addition to validating potentiality of the gene (ZmCRT) as a means for the virus-resistance resource, four ZmCRT-expressing homozygous lines were generated from the T0 plants as using an Agrobacterium-mediated transformation, nucleic acid analyses, and a conventional breeding method. Of them, a line was subjected to the bioassay for tolerances to tobacco mosaic virus-U1 (TMV-U1) and tomato mosaic virus (ToMV) followed by RT-PCR and a chlorophyll fluorescence quenching analyses. Both transgenic plants transcribing ZmCRT and wild-type plants showed no symptom by 20 days after viruses inoculation, however the photosystem II quantum yield parameter measured from the upper leaves of ToMV-inoculated plants revealed that ZmCRT transgenic plants have higher photosynthetic ability than wild-type ones at that time, which indirectly implies that over-expressed ZmCRT product acts as a barrier to the cell-to-cell and/or systemic movement of ToMV. Moreover, ZmCRT transgenic plants showed remarkably longer shoot length than wild-type ones in 40 days after TMV-U1 or ToMV inoculation each, which might be resulted from higher photosynthetic ability during the phase not yet showing any external symptoms. Collectively, over-expressed ZmCRT protein in tomato plants is able to interrupt the systemic movement of infected TMV-U1 and ToMV even though not perfect.

토마토반점위조바이러스(TSWV)는 고추, 토마토 등 경제적으로 중요한 작물에 심각한 피해를 주는 바이러스들 중 한 종이다. TSWV의 넓은 기주범위, 매개충인 총채벌레 방제의 어려움 및 TSWV의 효과적인 치료제가 없기 때문에, 저항성 품종을 사용하는 것이 TSWV를 예방하는 가장 효과적인 수단이 될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 토마토에서 분리된 TSWV 분리주(SW-TO2)의 유전학적·생물학적 특성을 구명하고, 최근에 국내에서 분리된 구기자, 머위, 당귀 TSWV 분리주와 비교하였다. 순수분리된 SW-TO2는 28종의 지표식물 중 토마토를 포함한 17종에서 원형반점, 모자이크 증상 등 전신감염 증상을 보였다. SW-TO2의 유전자 계통분석 결과 국내에서 분리된 고추, 구기자 TSWV 분리주와 98~99%의 상동성을 보이며 같은 그룹에 속하였다. TSWV 저항성 평가를 위한 생물검정법을 확립하고, 시판되고 있는 고추와 토마토 품종을 대상으로 4종의 TSWV 분리주에 대한 저항성 평가를 검정하였다. TSWV 저항성 평가는 첫째, 접종엽에 괴사반점 증상이 나타나거나 병징이 없는 경우, 둘째, 상엽에 병징이 없는 경우, 셋째, 상엽을 RT-PCR 진단한 결과 음성이 나왔을 경우 등 3가지 조건이다 충족될 때 저항성으로 평가하였다.

This experiment was carried out to examine the effect of various functional materials such as bioceramic podwers, crushed shells and elvanites supplemented to the each substrate on the seedlings growth of cucumber, watermelon and tomato. The seedlings were grown in pots filled with substrates of bioceramic podwers, crushed shell and elvanites. The growth of cucumber seedlings in terms of plant height, stem diameter, leaf width, leaf area, plant fresh and dry weight was promoted by adding the bioceramic. powder (1 to 2g/kg), crushed shells (20 to 80g/kg) or elvanites (20 to 80g/kg). Watermelon seedlings in terms of plant height, number of leaves and leaf area were greater than those of the control by adding bioceramics (1 to 2g/kg). Plant height was also promoted by the adding of bioceramic power from 16 days after treatment. But leaf area was increased from 8 days after treatment, while stem diameter was not affected. Watermelon seedlings were also influenced by adding curshed shells (20 to 80g/kg) and elvanites (20 to 40g/kg) into each substrate. The growth of characteristics of tomato seedlings were promoted by adding 1 to 3g/kg of bioceramics, 10 to 80g/kg of crushed shell or 20 to 40g/kg of elvanites, respectively. Especially, root growth was greatly influenced by bioceramic powder, whereas the shoot growth(leaves and stem) was stimulated by crushed shells and elvanites suppemented into substrate.
