  • Theileria spp.의 생활환에 대해서는 여러종류의 책을 통해서 잘 소개되어 있다. 그중 Theileria spp.의 분열소체 즉, merozoite는 주로 숙주의 적혈구내에 존재하는데 진드기에 의해 흡혈되지 않으면 더이상 발육하지 못하고 생을 마감한다고 여겨 왔다. 그러나 적혈구내 merozoite가 임파구에 다시 들어가 schizont로 복귀하여 분열 증식된다는 가설은 아직까지 증명된 바 없다. 본 실험은 T sergenti merozoite의 schizont로의 복귀를 입증하고자 수행되었다. T sergenti에 감염되지 않은 3개월령의 송아지를 비장적출시킨 후 T sergenti merozoite에 감염된 순수적혈구를 인공감염시켰다. 인공감염후 경시적으로 혈액과 임파액을 채취하여 적혈구내 T sergenti 감염을 조사하고 백혈구 감별혈구를 계산하였으며 임파구내 schizont 출현을 관찰하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 혈구내원충 감염율(parasitemia : PE)은 인공감염후 28일째 최고치인 10.5%를 보였으며 그후 5%이내의 수준을 유지하다가 70일째 다시 8.5%의 상승점을 보였다. 2. 백혈구 감별혈구계산에서는 감염초기에는 호중구가 주종을 이루다가 감염후 19일을 기점으로 임파구(60~80%)가 급격히 증가하여 실험종료 때까지 유지되었다. 3. 인공감염후 19~23일, 59~63일 사이에 말초혈액내 임파구에서 분열 증식하고 있는 schizont를 관찰할 수 있었다. 4. 인공감염후 7일부터 림프액내 임파구의 크기가 커지면서 blast-formation이 진행되었으며 실험종료때까지 유지되었다. 이상의 결과로 보아 적혈구내 merozoite가 임파구에 다시 들어가 schizont로 복귀하여 분열 증식함을 입증하여 기존의 T sergenti 생활사는 수정되어야 된다고 사료된다.

  • The prevalences of the cuke belonging to genus Metagonimus hove been reported along the upper stream of inhabitants by several workers since 1980, however the taxonomical problems of the fluke was not yet settled. The larval flukes; cercaria and metacercaria as well as their intermediate hosts, and adult were studied in order to identify the Mepagonimus in the areas. The results obtained are summarized as follows: 1. The snails, Semisulcospira globus were collected (rom the three different localities along the upper stream of the River. The cercariae were found from 125(7.2%) out of 1,730 snails by natural emerging method, and were identified into 5 species including Metagenimus sp. (3.7%), Pseudexorchis major(1.4%), Cercaria nipponensis (0.9%), Cercaria incerpa(0.6%), and Cercaria yoshidae(0.6%). Cercariae of Metagonimus species had four to dye oral spines on its anterior of the first line. 2. The cercariae of Metagonimus were experimentally exposed to goldfish. nfection rate was 22.9% out of 105 goldfish, and the encysted metacercariae were found in fins(86.7%) and on scales (13.7%) of the fishes, but not in their muscle, head or visceral organs. 3. Seven species of ask were caught in the Daecheong Reservoir and the upper stream. Infestations with metacercaria of Metagonimus were found 100% in Opsariichtys widens and the parasitized numbers of the metacercariae were observed from 250 to 2,400 per fish. In the upper stream, Zacco termmincki, Z. platypus and Pseudogobio esocinus were infected 100% with the metacercaria, on the other hand, the fishes caught in the reservoir showed the lower infestation rates, and a few metacercariae found in the fishes Carassius carassius and Cyprinus carpio in the reservoir and the stream. The majority of metacercariae was detected only on the scales of fishes. 4. In order to know the infectivity and the distribution patterns in the intestine of hosts, rats and dogs were infected with the metacercariae obtained from O. bidens and Z. platypus. In addition the metacercariae obtained from Z. temmincki, P. esocinus and goldfish were given to the rats. The recovery rates of the worms in the small intestine of dogs were higher (63.3~65.8%) than those of the rats (3.5~31.6%). The flukes were found mostly in the middle and the lower part of small intestine of the rats and the dogs, but no worm was collected in the upper part of the intestine of rats. 5. The sixte of adult flukes varied by the hosts. In the adult cukes, oral sucker was smaller than ventral sucker, and the right and left testes were located diagonally, the uterine tubules circled around the upper left testis. The average egg sixte was $29.1{\times}1.7{\mu\textrm{m}}$. According to the above results, the cukes belonging to genus Metagonimus distributed along the Geum River was concluded to be identical with Miyata type of M. yokogawai as that Saito had proposed.

  • Virus disease surveys on barley cultivation areas in Jeonnam Jeonbuk Gyungnam Gyungbuk-do were conducted during 2014-2015. In this study, we detected Barley yellow mosaic virus (BaYMV), Barley mild mosaic virus (BaMMV) and Soil-borne wheat mosaic virus (SBWMV) by RT-PCR from barley leaves. These viruses are of great economic importance for wheat and barley, causing significant quantitative and qualitative losses in yield. The result of investigation showed that the field incidence of BaYMV in Buan, Gimje was more than 90% in 2014. The infection field rate of barley virus including Boseong, Gangjin, Haenam, Jangheung in Jeonnam was ${\approx}$ 30%. In 2014, double infections by BaYMV and BaMMV was detected in Boseong, Gangjin, Haenam and Jangheung. Only as a low rate BaYMV occurred in various fields of Jeonbuk in 2015. At the same time high infection field ratio of 70% was observed in Gunsan. Also in Yeonggwang was double infection of BaYMV and BaMMV. BaYMV occurred single infection has been confirmed in all of the study area of Gyungbuk and Gyungnam except for Goseong during the investigation period.

  • 마이코플라즈마는 양계 산업에 경제적 손실을 임하는 질병중의 하나이다. 그 중에서도 마이코플라즈마 갈리셉티컴(MG, mycoplasma gallisepticum)은 호흡기 질병을 유발하고 산란율을 떨어뜨리며, 마이코플라즈마 시노바에(MS, mycoplasma synoviae)는 호흡기와 관절이상을 가져온다. MG는 MS보다 더 큰 경제적 손실을 입히고 있다. 본 고에서는 MG에 대한 일반 이해와 미국에서의 예방 실태를 알아 본다. MG는 축제를 떠나면 덥고 건조한 조건에서는 불과 몇 시간밖에 생존하지 못하는 유기체이다. MG는 감염 닭과의 직접접촉, 가까운 거리에서는 공기를 통해, 또는 오염된 기구나 작업자들을 통해 수평 감염되거나 종란을 통해 수직감염 된다. MG 감염은 만성호흡기(CRD, Chronic respriatory disease)의 원인이 되는데 특히 어린 병아리와 브로일러에서 그러하다. CRD 즉 만성 호흡기증의 정도는 MG병원성, 전염성 기관지염(IBV, intectious bronchitis virus), 그리고 대장균증과 같은 2차 감염에 의해 더욱 악화 되게 된다.

  • We established a transient gene expression system in chili pepper leaves based on Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of GUS gene. For the best GUS transient expression, two step culture system was adopted. When the Agrobacterium tumefaciens cell density of pre-culture was $A_{600nm}$ 0.3, the cells were harvested and diluted to $A_{600nm}$ 0.8 with virulence induction medium after cell harvested. The addition of acetosyringone (200 $\mu$M) in virulence induction step was a key factor for successful transient expression. Additionally, Younger leaves showed more effective transient expression than older leaves. Temporally, the strongest intensity of GUS expression was detected at 2 days after infiltration. These results demonstrate that Agrobacterium-mediated transient expression can be used for a simple in vivo assays of plant promoters, transcription factors and furthermore provide efficient protocol for chili pepper transformation.

  • Helicobacter pylori(H. pylori) associated with gastritis and gastric cancer is mainly detected dental plaque and saliva in the oral cavity. Most infection is probably acquired in childhood, but the route of transmission is not clear. The oral cavity has been indicated as secondary reservoir of H. pylori, and may therefore be argued in the route of transmission and reinfection of the stomach which follows treatment of H. pylori infection. So this review aimed to discuss about H. pylori in the oral cavity. H. pylori in stomach can appear in the oral cavity by gastroesophageal reflex or vomiting, but infection of stomach and oral cavity is different. Diagnostic methods are serological method, urea breath test, PCR method, urease test, histologic method and so on. Nested PCR recommend for detection of H. pylori in saliva and dental plaque. H. pylori infection in the oral cavity appear variously and is no relation with dental diseases. The antimicrobial mouthrinse recommend in patients with periodontal diseases because of high detection rate fo H. pylori. Thus H. pylori may be considered as the normal oral microflora.

  • For application of sodium hypochlorite as a seed disinfectant to the control of bakanae disease caused by Gibberella fujikuroi in rice, we investigated the effects of sodium hypochlorite for antifungal activity, eliminating fungus from seeds and reducing disease occurrence in vitro and greenhouse. The viability of the pathogen was significantly reduced at $80{\mu}l/l$ concentration of sodium hypochlorite, and the pathogens did not grow at over $100{\mu}l/l$ concentration of sodium hypochlorite. The effect of eliminating fungus was 90% at treatment of 0.3% sodium hypochlorite solution to infected rice seeds for eight hours. When the rice seeds were soaked into 0.5% and 0.3% sodium hypochlorite solutions for twelve hours, the disease incidences of rice seedling were remarkably reduced to 4.3% and 4.7%, respectively, compared to 97.3% of non-treatment control. The rates of seedling stand were 29.1% and 26.9% higher with the sodium hypochlorite treatment than that of non-treatment control. When prochloraz and sodium hypochlorite was treated to naturally severely infested rice seeds with bakanae disease, the disinfection effect was higher than that of prochloraz alone treatment. When the seeds were soaked in sodium hypochlorite before or after prochloraz, the rate of seed contamination was low as 4.0% or 6.3%, respectively, compared to prochloraz alone as 13.7%. The disease incidence was low as 3.7% or 8.3%, respectively, compared to prochloraz alone as 14.3%. The disinfection effect of treatment with prochloraz after sodium hypochlorite was higher than that of treatment with prochloraz before sodium hypochlorite.

  • This study was carried out to evaluate the vaccination effects of recombinant fusion protein rVP19+28 against WSSV in shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei. The VP19+28 gene fused with VP19 and VP28 genes was inserted into pET-28a(+) expression vector and cloned in E. coli BL21 (DE3) to produce fused gene product recombinant VP19+VP28 as a single protein. For the vaccination, the shrimps were fed with pellets coated with purified recombinant protein, rVP19+28, for 2 weeks. Then, constant amounts of WSSV at $1{\times}10^2$ diluted stocks were injected to the muscle of the shrimp for the in vivo challenge tests. Non-vaccinated shrimps showed a cumulative mortality of 100% at 11 days post-challenge. The shrimps vaccinated with the inactivated E. coli BL21 as a host cell control showed cumulative mortality of 100% at 17 days post-challenge. The shrimps vaccinated with rVP19, rVP28 and rVP19+28 showed mortalities of 66.7%, 41.7% and 41.7% at 21 days post-challenge, respectively. These results indicated that the rVP28 and rVP19+28 had relatively high vaccination effects against WSSV infection. However, this study suggests that the fusion protein rVP19+28 was more effective for the protection of shrimp against WSSV than rVP28, even though the cumulative mortalities were the same 21 days post-challenge.
