온도처리가 비트와 쌈추의 생육과 생리활성 물질 함량에 미치는 영향

The consumption of leaf vegetables has been steadily increasing in Korea. Leaf vegetables are used for "Ssam (vegetable wrap-up), eaf vegetables has been steadily increasing in Korea. Leaf vegetables are used for asoned condiments inside several layers of young vegetable leaves. This study investigated the effect of air temperature on the growth and phytochemical contents of beet (Beta vulgaris L.) and Ssamchoo (Brassica lee L. ssp. namai) grown in a closed-type plant factory system where fluorescent lamps were used as an artificial light source. Seeds of beet and Ssamchoo were sown in a peat-lite germination mix. The roots of 20-day-old seedlings were washed, and the seedlings were planted on a styrofoam board and grown in hydroponic beds for 25 days under fluorescent light. Plants were exposed to one of three different air temperature regimes (20, 25 and $30^{\circ}C$ during the day combined with $18^{\circ}C$ during the night), which were monitored with a sensor at 30 cm above the plant canopy. Increased plant height and leaf area were observed in beet at $25^{\circ}C$ and $30^{\circ}C$ compared to $20^{\circ}C$. For Ssamchoo, the greatest plant height, leaf area, fresh weight and dry weight were obtained at $20^{\circ}C$. Ascorbic acid content of beet and Ssamchoo leaves were highest at $30^{\circ}C$. In beet, total polyphenol and flavonoid contents were higher at $20^{\circ}C$ (42.4, $197.0mg{\cdot}g^{-1}DW$) and $25^{\circ}C$ (46.9, $217.0mg{\cdot}g^{-1}DW$) than $30^{\circ}C$ (22.4, $88.0mg{\cdot}g^{-1}DW$). In Ssamchoo, total polyphenol and flavonoid contents were also higher at $20^{\circ}C$ (79.2, $268.2mg{\cdot}g^{-1}DW$) and $25^{\circ}C$ (66.3, $258.3mg{\cdot}g^{-1}DW$), respectively, than $30^{\circ}C$ (53.7, $134.7mg{\cdot}g^{-1}DW$). Hence, the optimum temperature appears to be $20^{\circ}C$ for growing both beet and Ssamchoo in a closed-type plant factory system with fluorescent light. 쌈채소는 웰빙시대의 도래와 더불어 식생활에서 큰 변화를 주었고, 소비량이 계속적으로 증가하고 있다. 지금까지 국내에서는 배추, 상추 등 일부 채소 작물에 대한 쌈문화가 발달해 왔지만 최근 들어 다양한 종류의 쌈채소와 재배기술에 관한 연구가 활발하게 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구는 인공 광원으로 형광등을 이용하여 식물공장내에서 비트와 쌈추의 수량과 품질을 향상시키고자 수행하였다. 처리는 식물공장내 식물체로부터 30cm 위치에 자동센서를 설치하여 온도가 20, 25, $30^{\circ}C$가 유지 되도록 하였고, 광량은 $200{\mu}mol{\pm}20{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$로 고정하고 일장은 주야간이 12/12hr, 상대 습도 50-80%로 하였다. 모든 처리구의 근권부 전기전도도(EC)는 $2.0dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$로 공급하였으며 재배기간 pH는 6.1-7.2로 유지되었다. 그 결과 비트의 초장과 엽면적은 온도가 높았던 $25^{\circ}C$와 $30^{\circ}C$ 처리구가 $20^{\circ}C$ 처리구보다 높았고, 쌈추의 경우도 온도가 높
