Abstract: The present invention relates to a genome-wide analysis of gene expression levels of the Korean fir of Abies genus. More specifically, the present invention relates to the isolated genes expressed in response to heat treatment using a next generation sequencing-based platform.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for improving the performance of a determination of whether an earphone is mounted to a portable terminal, such as a portable terminal supporting a 3.5 mm earphone plug, are provided. An apparatus for recognizing whether the earphone is mounted to the portable terminal includes a common ground terminal and a switching terminal of an earphone plug receptacle for electrically connecting to each other and the same pole of an earphone plug when the earphone plug is mounted in the earphone plug receptacle, and an external output managing unit for generating an earphone mounting notification signal through a detector.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for removing white noise in a portable terminal are provided. The method for removing the white noise in the portable terminal includes measuring a volume variation of a voice signal output from a power amplifier; detecting a frequency band including white noise using the measured volume variation; and removing signals of the detected frequency band in the voice signal before output to speaker.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for determining the type of accessory connected to an earphone terminal in a portable terminal are provided. The apparatus includes a switching unit for controlling a power source supply time for an operation of an Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) via a power source independent of a power source supplying power to the ADC for other operations.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for automatically reporting a speakerphone call mode of a portable wireless terminal having a speakerphone module to a calling partner. The method includes entering a call mode when a call is initiated; determining whether the speakerphone call mode is turned on after the initiation of the call mode; reading a predetermined report message for reporting an on state of the speakerphone call mode from a memory of the portable wireless terminal when the speakerphone call mode is turned on; and transmitting the predetermined report message to the calling partner's terminal. Accordingly, the method makes it possible to efficiently prevent an invasion of privacy of the calling partner without causing inconvenience to the user of the portable wireless terminal.
