초록

The revolution in molecular biology has given us greatly increased ability to obtain and to modify biological resources and to use them for the benefit of all humankind. The sequencing and the associated analysis of gene functions for a growing number of genomes will have an unprecedented effect on the uses of biological resources and the need for access to them. To investigate the diversity of microbial community in swamp, molecular systematic methods were applied. By amplified rDNA restriction analysis (ARDRA) and rDNA partial sequence analysis, $75\%$ of the isolates were known species. In case of uncultured analysis, almost all the selected clones were new species candidate. Especially archea and uncultured bacterial analyses, all clones were new taxon candidates. As for the eukaryotic diversity, several yeast form cultures were isolated from various samples of swamp. Among them, about $60\%$ of the isolates were easily identified. In case of a new species candidate, most strain were included in hymenomycetal yeasts.
