We investigated the effects of death and gametogenesis by infection of the trematode in the venus clam, Cyclina sinensis. The specimens of C. sinensis were collected monthly at the tidal flat of Kaehwado, Puan-gun and Sangpo aquafarms, Kochang-gun, Chollabuk-do, Korea, from June 1999 to May 2000. One species of a trematode, the metacercaria of Himasthla kusasigi Yamaguti, 1939 (Enchinistomatidae), was found in the venus clam, C. sinensis. Infection rates in Kaehwado area and Sangpo aquafarm were average 93% and 81%, respectively. Infection rates during the study period reached the maximum (100%) in September 1999 and March-April 2000 and showed the minimum (80%) in July in Kaehwado, while those in Sangpo aquafarm showed the maximum (99%) in January 2000 and the minimum (47%) in November 1999. The infection parts of the metacercaria of H. kusasigi in the venus clam were the visceral mass, gill, mantle including the foot. Their infection rates in Kaehwado area and Sangpo aquafarm were 76.7% and 81.3% in the visceral mass, 19.1% and 14.5% in the gill, and 5,1% and 4.2% in the mantle, respectively. Infection rates of H. kusasigi showed higher with the increase of the size of the clams. No abnormal characteristics in the various tissues by histological observations were found in the clams infected by the metacercaria of H. kusasigi because this clam is the second intermediate host.

An experiment was carried out in order to reveal the infection species of trematode and the infection demage in the marine bivalves. Metacercaria of Echinostomatidae were found in Mactra veneriformis, Cyclina sinensis and Solen strictus in the vicinity sea of Naecho-do, the estuary of the Keum River in the western coast of Korea. The metacercaria detected from Solen strictus were fed by Larus crassiostris, at 16 days after infection, the adult worm could be seceded. The metacercaria of Himasthla kusasigi were detected from Mactra veneriformis and Cyclina sinensis, their infection rates were 70.4% and 85.7% respectively. The partial infection rates with respect to the body parts were 40.4% and 77.3% in the foot, 17.0% and 12.4% in the gill, 12.6% and 10.3% in the mantle in order. The metacercaria of Acanthoparyphium were found from Solen strictus. The total infection rate was 63% and the partial infection rate was 63% and the partial infection rate was shown foot, mantle and gill in order. The adult worm ceded from Larus crassiostris was indentified as Acanthoparyphium tyosenensis Yamaguti, 1938 from view point of its physical characteristics. Therefore, Mactra veneriformis, Cyclina sinensis would be added as new intermediate hosts, and Echoinostoma decteded from Mactra sulcataria which was studied by author(1969) was revealed as larvae of Acanthoparyphium tyosenensis.

Reproductive cycle with the ovarian developmental phases, first sexual maturity of the female venus clam, Cyclina sinensis, was investigated by a histological study, and the number of spawned eggs and spawning frequency by artificial spawning induction of the clams were estimated. Samples were collected from the intertidal zone of Simpo, Gimje city, Korea between January and December, 2001. The reproductive cycle of this species can be classified into five successive stages; early active (February to April), late active (March to June), ripe (May to August), spent (July to September), and spent and inactive (September to February). The spawning period was once a year between July and August, a spawning peak was seen in July and August. Percentages of first sexual maturity of female clams of 25.1-30.0 mm in shell length were 64.3%, and 100% for the clams > 40.1 mm. The number of the eggs released from each clam by spawning induction increased as the size of clam in terms of shell length increased. The mean number of the eggs released from the second induction of spawning was 76.87% of the number of the eggs released in the first spawning. Our data indicated that the interval of each spawning was estimated to be approximately 15-17 (average 16.5) days.

본 논문에서는 타원형 클러스터링을 위한 거리측정 함수로써 변형된 가무시안 커널 함수를 사용하며, 주어진 클러스터링 문제를 각 타원형 클러스터의 체적을 최소화하는 문제로 해석하고 이를 선형행렬 부등식 기법 중 하나인 고유값 문제로 변환하여 최적화하는 새로운 알고리즘을 제안한다.

Effects of suspended silt and clay on the survival of the rearing bivalves, Meretrix lusoria, Cyclina sinensis and Mactra veneriformis were studied. During sixty-five days of experimental cultures in different concentrations of suspended silt and clay and in different time of immersions, mortalities of the bivalves were checked every day, and the rates of shell movement and oxygen consumption were measured. In general, the higher the concentration of silt and clay and the longer the immersion time, the earlier the occurence, and the higher the rate of the mortalities of the experimental bivalves. M. veneriformis was subjected to earlier mortality than the others, and the period of $50\%$ mortality was the shortest of the three species (37 days in 1,000 ppm), and longer was that of C. sinensis(42 days). Mortality of M. lusoria occured latest and $50\%$ mortality was seen at the immersion time of 50-51 days. Particularly, M. lusoria showed no mortality in the sea water with 100 ppm of suspended silt and clay, and even in the concentrations of 500 or 1,000 ppm they were able to survive without mortality only if the immersion time was short (12-18 hours per day). M. veneriformis and C. sinensis were also able to survive without mortality when the immersion time was short (12 hours per day) in low concentration (100 ppm). Shell movements of experimental bivalves varied depending upon species. In the case of M. veneriformis the shell was opened continuously and C. sinensis opened their shells frequently, while M. lusoria maintained their shells closed in any experimental concentrations of sea water with suspended silt and clay. Total metabolic activity of M. veneriformis was found to be highest while that of M. lusoria showed the lowest. Little difference of oxygen consumption in excised gill tissue was shown between the control group and the experimental groups. Consequently, it may be stated that the mortality results from a immersion in sea water with high concentration of suspended silt and clay for long-time although the survival rates of the experimental bivalves depend also upon the species, physiological conditions, concentration of suspended silt and clay and immersion time. The survival percentage of bivalve y in relation to the time (day) of immersion X in sea water of suspended silt and clay was found to be: $$M.\;lusoria\;(1,000\;ppm):\;y=7.7\times10^9\;\chi^{-4.77}\;(500\;ppm):\;y=259\chi^{-0.26}$$ $$C.\;sinensis\;(1,000\;ppm):\;y=-21\chi+936\;(\chi<44),\;y=-0.65\;\chi+35\;(\chi>44)$$ $$(500\;ppm):\;y=4.4\times10^5\;\chi^{-2.27}$$ $$M.\;veneriformis\;(1,000\;ppm):\;y=-18\chi+716\;(\chi<39),\;y=-0.89\chi+39\;(\chi>39)$$
