本稿は、日本語「自己実現」を例題として、複数の一般的な国語辞典を用いて、時間的経過を追ったり比較したりしながら、調査を行ったものである。この単語の源流や用語法を効果的に探っていくための研究の見地が獲得され、実際に進められた。第一に、「自己実現」を考える際に、「自我実現」という言葉も同時に探るべき必要性が明らかになった。「自己」も「自我」も、ともに英語“self”に相当するが、微妙な違いに注意を払う必要がある。第二に、自己実現とは、倫理学説として把握され続けてきており、辞書的には、学説として見出しにされることもしばしばであった。第三に、アメリカの心理学者のアブラハム・マズローの欲求階層論の自己実現概念が普及しているのを意識しつつも、イギリスの思想家のトーマス・ヒル・グリーンの重要性こそが見直されなければならない。

Garland chrysanthemum is conventionally ratooned and harvested by selective hand picking. This manually intensive mode of harvesting may be improved by adopting mechanized harvesting practices. In view of incorporating machine harvesting into garland chrysanthemum crops, this study evaluated the effects of plant and cutting height on ratoon crop regrowth. Garland chrysanthemums were horizontally harvested using six combinations of three plant height levels at harvest (20 cm, 30 cm, and 40 cm) and three cutting height levels (5 cm, 10 cm, and 15 cm) over three repeated harvests. Plant height at harvest as well as the cutting height affected the total ratooning yield and regrowth process. If plant heights at harvest were low (20 cm) or cutting height relative to plant height at harvest was excessively high, yields decreased. Higher plant heights at harvest and lower cutting heights resulted in longer regrowth periods. Evaluation of branch structures revealed that low cutting heights decreased the number of branches and nodes remaining for regrowth. If the plant height at harvest was low (20 cm), node numbers tended to decrease. Excessively high cutting heights relative to plant height at harvest potentially results in the harvest of immature leaves and stems. We determined that harvesting at 30 cm plant height with 10 cm cutting height was suitable for ratooning, and resulted in high yields. This combination resulted in a sufficient number of first lateral branches and nodes on the plants, thus enabled the harvest of fully grown leaves.

Lateral heads, which generate after the harvest of an apical head of broccoli (Brassica oleracea L. var. italica), are generally small and have a low market value. Our purpose in this study was to increase the yield of broccoli from April to May, when domestic broccoli production is low, by removing excess branches (dubbed the “L-shaping” process) and growing one or two large and marketable lateral heads with the cultivar ‘Yumehibiki’. First, we demonstrated that transplanting seedlings in late-January and early-February to a field covered by plastic mulch and tunnels enabled apical heads and marketable lateral heads to be harvested in April and May, respectively. The number of marketable lateral heads reached a maximum 81% of that of apical heads. Next, we derived the base temperature (BT; °C), effective heat unit summation (EHUS; °C·day) from transplanting to apical head harvest, and additional EHUS from apical head harvest to lateral head harvest. They were 1.76°C, 747°C·day, and 254°C·day in 2016, and 1.74°C, 675°C·day and 204°C·day in 2017, respectively. The favorable timing for transplanting to result in the highest marketable yield was estimated as when the average temperature reached 4.0°C, but was less than 7.1°C. Finally, we characterized the lateral branches that were most likely to produce marketable lateral heads. The branches that produced marketable heads showed significantly higher values for thickness of branch, length of branch, and number of leaves on branch than those that produced nonmarketable heads, although the diameters of the developing heads on the branches were not significantly higher. Further analysis revealed that the leaf area was also significantly higher in marketable lateral heads than in nonmarketable heads. Taken together, the possibility of a substantial increase in yield during the broccoli off-crop season by using L-shaped ‘Yumehibiki’ was demonstrated in this study.

Lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) bolting is often limiting in agricultural production as stem elongation followed by flower bud differentiation results in unmarketable plants. Thus, to solve this problem, it is important to elucidate the molecular mechanisms controlling flowering. To investigate the relationship between gene expression and flowering in lettuce, homologs of flowering-related genes were isolated and their expression over time was analyzed in three cultivars and in one breeding line by using quantitative real-time PCR. In plants grown in the field, the expression of the lettuce homologues APETALA 1 (LsAP1L) and LEAFY (LsLFYL) in the shoot apex correlated with flower bud formation, and FLOWERING LOCUS T (LsFT) expression increased during the transition from vegetative to reproductive growth. The transcription of FLOWERING LOCUS D (LsFLDL), FVE (LsFVEL), and LUMINIDEPENDENS (LsLDL) also increased with flowering. Our previous study showed that LsFT was upregulated during lettuce flowering induced under controlled high temperature conditions. Results from both studies suggest that LsFT is involved in lettuce flowering, both in natural and controlled conditions. This is also the first report on the expression of other flowering-related genes along with flowering of lettuce grown in the field.

Axillary buds of broccoli (Brassica oleracea L. var. Italica) develop and produce lateral heads after the apical heads have been harvested; however, lateral heads are not used because of their small size, and only one apical head is generally harvested from one plant. In this study, we aimed to establish a new method to harvest two heads of 12 cm diameter from a plant by pinching the apical bud and growing two axillary buds (“V-shaping” process) in autumn cropping. First, we measured the probability of axillary bud generation (PA) at each leaf axil and calculated the integration of the PA (IPA). The PA from the 5th to 8th true leaves was especially high, and the IPA reached 4.7. Next, we investigated the period of harvest and yield of heads at different times (3rd, 5th, 7th, 9th, 11th, 13th, and 15th leaf stage) of V-shaping in Field 1 (Ibaraki Prefecture, Tsukuba City). In V-shaped plots from the 7th to 11th leaf stages, the number of marketable heads significantly increased in comparison to that of the control. It increased by 61% of that of the control at the 11th leaf stage. However, the period of harvest was delayed, and the quality of heads deteriorated by cold injury when V-shaping was conducted from the 11th stage onward. Finally, we assessed the applicability of V-shaping cultivation in other fields. V-shaping was conducted from the 9th to 11th leaf stage. The number of marketable heads increased by 69 and 62% in Field 2 (Ibaraki Prefecture, Tsukubamirai City) and Field 3 (Nara Prefecture, Uda City), respectively. However, it only slightly increased in Field 4 (Mie Prefecture, Tsu City). Comparison of cultivation conditions at these 4 fields revealed that early transplantation, to allow an approximate 300°C day increase in effective heat unit summation for harvesting before the daily minimum temperature fell below approximately 0°C, was important. In addition, improving the drainage of the field seems important, and the input of manure compost (long-term fertilizer effect) may improve the quality and yield of heads. Thus, we concluded that V-shaping cultivation enabled the harvesting of two heads by V-shaping and increased the number of marketable heads by more than 60% in a wide area.
