  • The main purpose of these studies were to clarify differences in Cheju - scoria and other solid media on quantity and quality of cherry tomatoes and on shift of component of the nutrient solution, and to use Practically Cheju-scoria as an excellent solid culture medium. The results obtained were summarized as follows ; 1. Among scoria plots, the rates of dry weights, fruits and their sugar-acid ratio were higher in the plot that was drained well with deep flow for one hour once a day. 2. Fresh fruit weights were lighter in rockwool and deep flow technique, but larger in scoria, Hyugashi (artificial gravel, $\Phi$10-12mm) and perlite in moving to higher flower cluster. 3. The results of analysis on microelement among solution components showed decrease of concentrations of P and K in the period of growth and development. 4. Yields and brix of cherry tomato showed a tendency to increase in rockwool and Hyugashi than anothers. 5. The concentration of fertilizer base was increased in general solution culture. Transpiration and absorption were similar in scoria plot and other media. 6. More studies of the Cheju-scoria development is required in order to use it as a solid medium for solution culture.

  • Tomato fruits(Lycopersicon esculentum $M_{ILL}$.) picked at mature (from mature green to breaker) and ripe (from pink to red) stage were packed into two layers in corrugated fiberbox and transported 200km and 400km from the harvested site. Loss (abrasion + cracking) in marketability was lowest (11.0%) from mature + 200km transport, followed by mature + 400km transport(13.5%), ripe + 200km transport(28.5%), and ripe + 400km transport (45.5%). When data were pooled by fruit maturity, firmness of mature fruit was 1.55 times higher than ripe fruit. However, vitamin C content was 1.25 times higher in ripe fruit than in mature fruit. Fruit transported longer distance and packed in bottom layer within a box exhibited lower firmness and vitamin C content in both maturity. It was concluded that it is desirable to transport relatively shorter distance for ripe tomato and longer distance for less ripe fruit.

  • Hydroponic culture has been developed to control soilborn diseases, to increase yield and to enhance the quality of vegetable, The pathogen could be detected from infected plant materials, hydroponic tanks, culture solution and solid media of the severely infected greenhouse, The density of pathogen population was coincided with the severity of disease incidence, For example, 1,900cfu m$L^{-1}$ pf pathogens were counted from tomato plants sampled in a 20% diseased greenhouse. The pathogens may be introduced in the greenhouse through the contaminated soil surrounding the house and/or through the infected young seedlings grown on the nursery soil. Also, not detected to Ralstonia solanacearum from tomato seeds (House Momotaro, Bbaebbae, Ggoggo, and Minicarol cultivar) selling at a market.

The Influence of over Foraging, and Pollinating Activities on Tomato Fruits by a Korean Native Bumblebee, Bombus ignitus S, (Hymenoptera : Apidae) in Cherry-tomato Houses (시설방울토마토에서 호박벌(Bombus ignitus)의 방화활동 및 과도한 방화가 토마토에 미치는 영향)

  • This study examined the foraging activities and the Influence of excessive foraging activity by B. ignitus workers on the quality of cherry-tomato fruits in cherry-tomato green-house. The peak time of pollination by B. ignitus worker was recorded at 8:00 and the average of foraging time on each flower was 11.7 secs. The total pollinating time of B. ignitus was 41 mins and 37 secs and its total number of visiting flowers was 195.2. The average time of staying on flowers was 8.8 ${\pm}$5.4 secs when two bumblebees were allowed to pollinate per Pyong (3.954 square yards) in the green house of tomatoes for 24 hours, but it was two times shorter (4.0${\pm}$3.1 secs) compared with that when one bumble-bee was allowed to pollinate per Pyong for one hour. The stamen color of tomato flowers visited by the bumblebee for one hour was brown while the stamen color for 24 hours was dark brown due to the frequent visiting. The average fruit bearing rate of the 4th-6th clusters of tomatoes visited for one hour was 48.9%, which was not significantly different from those allowed to visite for 24 hours. However, the number of seeds of flowers visited for 24 hours was 64.0, which was more than 55.3 seeds of flowers visited for one hour. The weight of fruit was 25.4 g and 24.4 g, respectively. The sweetness was not different significantly between one and 24 hours of visit (P > 0.05). The result revealed that end pro-duct of cherry-tomato was not influenced by over foraging activity of B. ignitus workers on tomato flowers.

  • 토마토의 품질판단 주요 기준인 과일크기, 과색, 모양, 당도 등은 유전적인 요인 이외에 재배환경에도 크게 영향을 받는다. 그중 당도는 토양수분과 관계가 깊다고 알려져 있으며, 일반적인 토양재배는 당도향상을 위한 수단으로 생육단계에 따라 토양수분을 조절하는 방법이 있으나 토성, 지하수위 및 기상등에 의해 영향을 많이 받으므로 효과적인 토양수분조절이 용이하지 않다. (중략)

  • 과실의 형질을 비파괴적으로 추정하는 방식은 파괴적 추정방식에 비해 연속적으로 측정이 가능하여 생육상태를 상세히 분석할 수 있으며, 같은 과실에 대하여 반복하여 측정할 수 있는 장점을 지닌다는 점에서 생장분석에 유용하게 사용되고 있는 방식이다. 또한 비파괴적 추정은 simulation에 의한 자동화 등에 적용할 수 있어 최적생장조건을 설정하는데 사용되며, 다량의 과실을 자동선별 및 자동수확하는데 이용될 수 있다. (중략)

  • 현재 우리나라의 양액재배 농가에서의 양액관리는 대부분은 계측에 의하여 양액의 농도를 조절해 주지 못하고 있으며, 대부분이 일정비율 내지 일정간격으로 양액을 보충해 주거나 몇 일 간격으로 양액 전체를 교환해 주고 있는 실정이며, 자동화 장치를 가지고 양액재배를 하는 농가는 거의 없는 실정에 있다. 따라서 양액관리의 정확성 및 성력화가 이루어지고 있지 못하며 이에 따른 생산성 향상 및 고품질을 기대하기란 실로 어려운 상황에 있다. (중략)
