From the ancient Korea, our ancestor had designed the unique pattern which is Dan-chung, in architectures such as palace and Buddhist temple. In Dan-chung pattern, there are many various kinds, that is geometric pattern, arabesque pattern, plant pattern, flower pattern, animal pattern, Buddhist pattern and living pattern. So, we can see the tessellations in the Dan-chung pattern, moreover we can find the beauty of tessellation in the Korean traditional architectures and crafts. In this paper, I'll show you Korean traditional tessellations via GSP 4.0. which means geomeric program Geometer's SkechPad.

As part of the NMK's research project on wooden Buddha statues, four items which contained fabric among their bokjang objects(腹藏物) were investigated. Firstly, when classified by the method of weaving, two items made of ra (羅, a four-end complex gauze) silk and five of neung(綾, twill damask) silk from the Goryeo era were identified, and the satin fabrics showing characteristics of the Joseon period were classified as either dan(緞, satin damask) or sa(紗, simple gauze). In particular, the fabric of the bokjang objects enshrined within the gilt-bronze Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva(Deoksu 801) feature both early and late Joseon characteristics, suggesting that two enshrinements were performed(once in the fifteenth century and another in the seventeenth). Secondly, the patterns on the fabrics included flowers, treasures, fruits, plants with animals, and landscapes with clouds. Thirdly, patches of fabric were found that are assumed to be related with all cardinal directions according to their arrangement, albeit in small quantities.

The wrapping cloth with Cloud and Treasures Pattern donated by the head house of the descendants of Lee Hangbok (1556-1618) at the National Museum of Korea underwent conservation treatment for its protection and display. It was then compared with other ancient fabric objects for dating and analysis of the design. The subjects of Cloud and Treasures Patterns of clothing excavated from tombs dated to some point between the birth and death of Lee Hangbok and with Cloud and Treasures Patterns on the covers of Uigwe copies from the same period from the late 16th and 18th centuries were compared. The results of comparison with relics with clear dating are as follows: First, The Cloud and Treasures Patterns on the late 16th and 17th centuries the differences in the proportion between the head and the tail of the cloud among. Second, the Cloud and Treasures Patterns on the covers of Uigwe copies and fabrics excavated from tombs dated no later than the early 1700s share similarities with the Cloud and Treasures Pattern on the donated wrapping cloth in terms of the arrangement and size of designs and the proportion between each portion of the design. Though the study failed to identify the exact use of the wrapping cloth, it was estimated to be produced in early 18th century when the portraits of Lee Hangbok were copied.

Nineteen strains of Trametes species were collected from the area of Kangwon Province, Korea. They have a variety of color hands and line-up markings on fruit bodies. Most strains were categorized into four types based on color bands, that is, dark brown, light brown, dark gray and light gray. They also have line-up marking shapes from sparse to compact on fruit bodies. In this study, we tried to investigate the relationship between the genetic variation and morphological appearance of these species using the nuclear ribosomal ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 region sequence, we used nineteen strains collected in nature and four species of five standard strains (T. versicolor KCTC16781, KCTC26203, T. villosa KCTC06866, T. suaveolens KCTC26205 and T. hirusta KCTC26200). The data of ITS sequences indicated that nineteen strains of T. versicolor have the difference of $1{\sim}6$ base pairs, comparing with standard strains of T. versicolor KCTC16781, and KCTC26203. Phylogenetic analysis of the Trametes species showed that they grouped into a wide range of single clade. Standard strains except T. versicolor KCTC16781 and KCTC26203, formed separated subgroup.

한국산 체꽃속(Scabiosa L.)의 외부형태형질을 바탕으로 구분한 5가지 변이 유형[솔체꽃(S. comosa) Type 1-2, 체꽃(S. tschiliensis f. pinnata) Type 3-4, 구름체꽃(S. tschiliensis f. alpina) Type 5]에 대해 잎 표피와 화분의 미세구조를 관찰하였다. 잎 표피세포의 크기는 향축면은 평균 12.4 × 6.7 ㎛로, Type 1이 가장 작고 Type 3가 가장 컸으며, 배축면은 평균 9.4 × 4.6 ㎛로 모든 유형이 비슷하게 나타났다. 모용은 단세포성 선상 모용이 일부 유형에서, 다세포성 비선상 모용이 모든 유형에서 관찰되었다. 선상 모용은 향축면에서 Type 1과 5에만 있었으며, 두 유형 중 Type 5의 모용이 길이 72.2 ㎛로 더 길고, 단위면적 (0.01 mm²) 당 개수도 5개로 더 많았다. 배축면에서는 Type 1, 3 및 5에 있고, 단위면적 당 개수가 Type 1과 5는 3~6개로 비슷하였으나, Type 3은 1개 이하로 매우 드물게 나타났다. 기공복합체는 부등형으로 양면에 분포하며, 향축면의 공변세포 크기는 평균 4.4 × 2.7 ㎛로 너비는 유사하나 길이는 Type 1과 5가 3.1 ㎛, 3.9 ㎛로 나머지에 비해 작았다. 단위면적 당 기공의 수는 향축면과 배축면이 평균 40.2개, 149.2개이고, 양면 모두 Type 1이 66.3개와 177.2개로 가장 많았다. 화분은 모두 단립으로 삼구형이고, 극축 길이(P)와 적도면 지름(E)의 비율은 0.83~1.12로 모양은 아단구형~약장구형이다. 표면무늬는 과립상 표면에 자상 돌기가 있고, Type 3과 4에서만 유공상이 확인되었다. 이상의 결과에서, 솔체꽃 유형인 Type 1과 2가 잎 표면의 선상 모용 유무 및 기공의 수에 뚜렷한 차이를 보여 Type 1은 솔체꽃과는 다른 새로운 변종 또는 품종일 가능성이 있다고 생각된다. 또한 체꽃 유형인 Type 3과 4의 경우, Type 3의 잎 배축면에 털이 드물게 있으나, 두 유형의 화분 표면무늬가 동일하고, 다른 형질들도 모두 중복되어 연속적인 변이로 보이며, 구름체꽃 유형인 Type 5는 나머지 유형과 뚜렷이 구분되었다.

The cobitid hybrid complex of C. sinensis and C. longicorpus occurs commonly in the upper streams of the Nakdong River, Korea where it is sympatric with the bisexual species, C. sinensis and C. longicorpus.The specimens of hybrid complex which are all females accounted for approximately 40% of all cobitid fish observed. These cobitid complex having the unique cloudy specks on body sides appeared to be morphologically intermediate between C. sinesis and C. longicorpusus. The chromosomes of hybrid complex were composed of both diploid form of 49 and triploid form of 73. This forms are tentatively presumed to be a unisexual complex originating from hybrid between C. sinensis and C. longcorpus.

Analysis of the species of wood in the wooden materials and the chemical composition of the fabric of the clothing excavated from the tomb of Yi Jing (1580-1642) has determined that the wooden materials, including the coffin (內棺, naegwan), burial chamber(外棺, oegwan), chilseongpan(七星板, bottom-lining board), and fan-shaped slats were made of pine(Pinus densiflora). The analysis of the fabrics suggested that the cloth attached to the fan-shaped slats, the funeral banner with inscriptions, and the five pouches for the corpse (五囊, onang) were all made of silk. The jacket was made of plain-weave cotton, while the inner and outer cloth of the socks were made of cotton and hemp, respectively. Among the silk items, the pouches for the left and right feet (constituting the five pouches for the corpse) were made from a satin-weave figured silk, while the other silk items were made of ju(紬), or plain-weave silk fabric. Infrared analysis revealed that the fan-shaped slats were decorated with cloud patterns across the entire surface, while the funeral banner and the five pouches for the corpse bore ink inscriptions.
