Abstract

The present study investigated the plant growth characteristics, dormancy breaking, yield, and biological activity properties (contents of flavonoid and phenolic compounds, nitrite scavenging activity, and the survival rate of lung cancer) of four asparagus cultivars. It aimed to examine selection possibilities for high efficacy cultivar to promote biological activity in asparagus cultivation in South Korea. The results showed that the number of asparagus buds and root fresh and dry weight of 'Jersey Giant', 'Jersey Supreme', and 'NJ953' were higher than those of 'UC157' cultivar, and there were no differences in the number of roots. The dormancy breaking period of 'Jersey Supreme' was prolonged compared to the other cultivars. 'Jersey Giant' and 'NJ953' had more total spears, and greater spear diameter, and yield than other cultivars. Total flavonoid content was unaffected by cultivar and was higher in ethanol extraction than in hot water extraction. Total phenolic compound content was the lowest in 'NJ953' for both hot water and ethanol extracts, whereas in the ethanol extraction, 'UC157' had the highest, with $39.23mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$. 'Jersey Giant', 'Jersey Supreme', and 'NJ953' all showed greater than 70% nitrite scavenging activity. In the case of ethanol extraction, the survival rates of lung cancer in extracts from 'Jersey Giant', 'Jersey Supreme', and 'UC157' were lower than 'NJ 953' cultivar, regardless of extraction concentration. The survival rate of lung cancer was lower in hot water extraction than in ethanol extraction, so that the consumption of asparagus is also expected to be helpful in preventing lung cancer. The growth characteristics and biological activity effects of edible asparagus that were identified in the present study are expected to be useful in selection of high efficacy cultivars for biological activity and utilization.

본 연구는 아스파라거스 4 품종의 생장 특성, 휴면타파, 수량 및 생리활성 함량(플라보노이드와 페놀화합물 함량, 아질산염 소거 및 폐암세포 생존율)를 조사하였다. 국내 아스파라거스 재배 시 생리활성 고효능 품종 선택 가능성을 검토하기 위해 실험을 수행하였다. 'Jersey Giant', 'Jersey Supreme' 그리고 'NJ953' 품종들은 'UC157' 품종보다 눈의 개수, 뿌리의 생체중과 건물중 등이 높았지만 뿌리의 개수에 차이가 없었다. 'Jersey Supreme' 품종의 휴면타파 기간은 다른 품종들보다 길었다. 'Jersey Giant'와 'NJ953'품종들은 다른 품종들보다 순의 개수, 직경 및 생산량이 높았다. 총 플라보노이드 함량은 품종 간에 차이가 없었지만 에탄올 추출에서 열수 추출보다 총 플라보노이드 함량이 높았다. 총 페놀화합물은 열수 추출과 에탄올 추출 모두 'NJ953' 품종은 가장 낮은 반면에 에탄올 추출에서 'UC157'에서 가장 많은 $39.23mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$을 나타냈다. 'Jersey Giant', 'Jersey Supreme' 그리고 'NJ953'의 아질산염 소거 효과는 70% 이상 효과를 나타냈다. 에탄올 추출 시 추출물의 농도와 관계없이 'Jersey Giant', 'Jersey Supreme' 그리고 'UC157' 품종들은 'NJ953' 품종보다 폐암세포 생존율 낮은 결과를 나타냈다. 또한 폐암세포 생존율은 에탄올 추출보다 열수 추출에서 낮아 아스파라거스 식용도 폐암 예방 효과에 도움이 될 것으로 기대된다. 본 연구결과를 통해 규명된 아스파라거스의 생육 특성과 생리 활성 효과는 생리활성 고효능 품종 선택 및 이용에 도움이 될 것으로 기대된다.
