For the purpose of acquiring microbial agents that can be utilized to biologically control the major airborne diseases to apple trees, such as canker(Botryosphaeria dothidea), bitter rot(Glomerella cingulata), alternaria leaf spot(Alternaria mali), root rot(rosellinia necatrix), canker(Valsa ceratosperma) and gray mold rot(Botrytis cinerea), the effective microorgaisms were isolated, tested for antagonistic activity to the pathogens causing major diseases to apple trees and identifed. Screening of more than 5,000 species of microorganisms collected in nature for them antagonistic action to the pathogens causing 5 major diseases to apple trees resulted in selection of effective species. Out of the 11 species, one species designated as CAP134 demonstrated outstanding activity. The bacterial strain, CAP134 exerted antagonistic efficiency of 57% on an isolated strain and 40% on a donated strain of Botryosphaeria dothidea., 52% on an isolated strain and 46% on a purchased strain of Alternaria mali, 60% on Valsa ceratosperma 25% on Glomerella cingulata, and 64% Rosellinia necatrix. The CAP134 was identified as a bacterial strain to Bacillus subtilis ATCC 6633 based on morephology, culture conditions, and physio-biochemical characteristics.

The effect of post-cut vanillin treatment at high concentrations on changes of quality and microorganism in fresh-cut apples was studied. Apples (Malus domestica Borkh. cv. Fuji) were sliced, treated by dipping in different vanillin solution, 0, 40, 80, and 120 mM, packed in polyethylene bag, and then stored for up to 3 weeks at $4^{\circ}C$. Changes in total aerobic bacteria, yeast and molds, browning, soluble solids, and titratable acidity during storage were investigated. Growth of total aerobic bacteria throughout storage was strongly inhibited by vanillin regardless of treatment concentrations. Growth of yeast and molds was inhibited by vanillin of all concentrations until 2 weeks of storage. Levels of browning index, soluble solids, and titratable acidity were not significant difference among the treatment conditions until 2 weeks of storage. However, when stored for 3 weeks, browning index increased more at 80 or 120 mM vanillin, while soluble solids and titratable acidity more be decreased by 120 mM vanillin as compared with other treatment conditions. These results show that the usage of vanillin in processing of fresh-cut apples had a limitation for maintaining quality.

We isolated and confirmed two S-RNases, denoted as mpS1 and mpS2, from apple rootstock 'Marubakaido' (Malus prunifolia Borkh. Var. ringo Asami). These S-RNases contained and conserved five cysteine residues and two histidine residues, which are essential for RNase activity. The mpS1 showed high similarity to S5 (99.1%) of Malus spectabilis, whereas the mpS2 showed 99.5% nucleotide sequence similarity to S26 of (Malus ${\times}$ domestica) and 99.6% to S35 of (Malus sieversii) when compared with reported S-RNases. In amino acid sequences, the mpS1-RNase was almost similar to the S5-RNase of Malus spectabilis, and the mpS2-RNase was similar to the S35 of Malus sieversii, with only one bp being different from the S26-RNase of Malus ${\times}$ domestica. The 57 S-RNases of Malus species were renamed and rearranged containing the new S-RNases, as mprpS35 (mpS2) and mprpS57 (mpS1), for determining S-genotypes and identifying new alleles from apple species (Malus spp.).

수확후 품질이 급속히 저하되어 저장력이 약한 단점 때문에 유통기간이 매우 짧은 '쓰가루' 사과를 대상으로 플라스틱 필름과 에틸렌 흡착제 첨가에 따른 MAP(modified atmosphere packaging)의 품질유지 효과를 비교하였다. 필름 포장내의 $O_2$와 $CO_2$ 함량은 포장 후 4~6일 후 까지 급격히 변화하였고, 에틸렌 농도도 밀봉 직후 급격히 증가하여 저장 4일 후 40 $\mu\textrm{m}$ 두께의 LDPE 필름 포장구(40LD)에서 2,045 ppm까지 증가한 후 감소하였다. 저장중 품질변화 측정에서 대조구의 중량손실은 저장 60일 후 3.0% 이상이었으나 포장구는 저장 60일 후에도 0.6% 이하의 수준이었다. 저장중 적정산도 및 가용성고형분 함량 변화는 처리구간 유의적인 차이가 없었으나, pH는 대조구와 포장구간에 차이가 있었다 '쓰가루'의 저장중 경도는 저장초기 18일까지 급속히 감소하였으며, 40LD와 40$\mu\textrm{m}$ 두께의 에틸렌 흡착제 첨가 포장구(40LP)는 저장 60일 후 경도가 높게 유지되었다. 저장중 과피색 변화는 색소 분해로 인한 퇴색이 빠르게 진행되었으며, 저장 30일 이후부터 40LP가 저장중 변색이 가장 억제되었다. 외관품질은 저장 30일 후부터 대조구와 포장구가 차이가 났다. 관능검사에서도 대조구에 비해 포장구가 외관과 종합적기호도에서 유의적으로 우수함을 보였다. 이와 같은 결과를 종합해 볼 때 조생종 사과인 '쓰가루'의 유통중 신선도 유지를 위한 포장재료로 40 $\mu\textrm{m}$ 두께의 LDPE 필름의 사용가능성이 있으며 에틸렌 흡착제를 필름안에 같이 처리하면 더욱 효과가 있을 것으로 판단되었다.

Two different pest control programs were applied on 8-year-old 'Ryoka'/M.26 apple trees (Malus domestica Borkh.). Lime sulfur or Bordeaux mixture with emulsified oil were applied 12 times from late March to mid-September as organic treatment, and synthetic chemicals were 7 times applied as control treatment. Over the entire apple-growing season, photosynthesis rates of apple trees were significantly lower in the organic treatment than in the control, and this photosynthetic differences were larger in July and August. Photosynthesis-related parameters such as stomatal conductance and transpiration behaved similarly to photosynthesis. The leaf area in the organic treatment was significantly smaller ($24.7cm^2$) than that in the control treatment ($30.7cm^2$). Organic leaves contained significantly less Chl. a ($15.5mg{\cdot}g^{-1}$) than did control leaves ($17.6mg{\cdot}g^{-1}$). Fruit yield per tree was significantly lower in the organic treatment (18.8 kg) than in the control (24.5 kg), because organic fruits experienced a higher rate of disease infection such as white rot (Botryosphaeria dothidae) and bitter rot (Glomerella cingulata) than did control fruits. Organic fruits had high flesh firmness but less color development (lower Hunter's a values). In this experiment, the pest control program with frequent applications of organic fungicides showed negative effects on photosynthesis and disease infection on leaves and fruits, and thus reduce the fruit quality and yield in 'Ryoka'/M.26 apple trees.

The research was conducted to measure the effect of temperature on respiratory and quality characteristics of 'Tsugaru' apple(Malus domestica Borkh) during storage at 4$^{\circ}$C, 10$^{\circ}$C and 20$^{\circ}$C. Respiration rate of the apple just after harvest was 7.57 mL CO$_2$/kg/h at 20$^{\circ}$C. It was decreased rapidly and was 2.86 mL CO$_2$/kg/h after storage for 45 days at 20$^{\circ}$C. The apples showed the highest ethylene production rate at 10$^{\circ}$C and 20$^{\circ}$C after 14 days, and at 4$^{\circ}$C after 28 days during storage. Weight of the apple was reduced by 2.9% after 120 days at 4$^{\circ}$C and by 6.1% after 45 days at 20$^{\circ}$C. Color difference of peel and pH increased with the temperatures but titratable acidity and flesh firmness showed the reverse trends during storage. According to the subjective quality test, it could be suggested that the shelf-life of the apple is 86 days at 4$^{\circ}$C, 65 days at 10$^{\circ}$C and 37 days at 20$^{\circ}$C, respectively.

미세천공 포장재가 신선절단 사과의 품질유지에 미치는 영향을 확인하기 위하여, 원형사과(Malus domestica Borkh. cv. Red Delicious)를 제심, 절단한 후 레이저로 미세공을 하나 천공한 것과 천공하지 않은 polyolefin 필름으로 밀봉 포장하고 $4^{\circ}C$에서 3주간 저장하면서 이화학적 품질 특성들의 변화를 조사하였다. 절단사과의 과육경도는 저장 1주 후부터 천공포장구에서 유의적으로 높은 값은 보였고, 가용성 고형분 함량은 저장 3주 후에 천공포장구에서 유의적으로 높은 값을 보였다. 절단사과의 절단면 갈변도, 적정산도, pH, 아세트알데하이드 및 에탄올 함량은 두 종류의 포장구간에 유의적인 차이를 보이지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 이로써 미세천공 포장재는 신선절단 사과의 과육경도 유지에 효과적인 방법인 것으로 판단된다.

We examined the anti-inflammatory effect of the peel extract of the newly bred Korean apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) cultivar Green ball. To test its possible use as anti-inflammatory functional material, Raw 264.7 macrophages were treated with pro-inflammatory lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in the presence or absence of Green ball apple peel ethanol extract (GBE). Notably, up to 500 ㎍/mL of GBE did not result in any signs of inhibition on cellular metabolic activity or cytotoxicity in Raw 264.7 macrophages. Supplementation with GBE to LPS-treated Raw 264.7 macrophage significantly suppressed various pro-inflammatory responses in a dose-dependent manner, including i) nitric oxide (NO) production, ii) accumulation of inducible NO synthase and cyclooxygenase-2, iii) phosphorylation of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) subunit p65, and iv) expression of pro-inflammatory biomarker genes, including tumor necrosis factor alpha, interleukin 1 beta, interleukin 6, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, and prostaglandin E synthase 2.
