This study was conducted to identify characteristics observed by staff during infertility treatment, and to analyze the relationship between the result of the treatment according to the ART infertility characteristics. In cooperation with an Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital in Ulsan, data were collected from 344 people receiving infertility treatment from 2012-1013 and evaluated by cross-analysis, logistic regression analysis, and the ${\chi}^2$ test. Age 30 subjects (72.1%), no disease (70.9%), and no birth children (77.0%) were most common among patients. Causes of infertility factor is the higher the age, followed by uterine factors, ovarian factors were the lower the age.Were assisted reproduction are IUI (51.5%), IVF (23.0%), IUI + IVF (25.6%), assisted reproduction were age (p<.013) infertility period (p<.014), abortion Experience (p<.008) it was not statistically significant. ART pregnancies result was 34.9%, IUI was 49.2%, IVF was 50.8%. The average number of successful IVF treatment was 1.64, while it was 1.36 for IVF. IVF is 0.28 times lower than the IUI. Thus, low in order to increase the success rate of pregnancy according to the assisted reproduction age, nanim period is short, and if you do not have birth children choose artificial fertilization, and high age, IVF If there are nanim period is longer and birth child treatment and you must choose. This study analyzed all subjects who underwent fertility treatment to have research significance. However, it is difficult to generalize, locally called Sun City limits. If this one based on regional and national follow-up study of infertility therapist made it will help to prepare the way of effective treatment for infertility causes.

To find out the seasonal variation of species composition and distribution of fish eggs and larvae in the western part of Jeju Island, investigations were carried out with plankton net during five different months from September 2004 to August 2005. The mean abundance of fish eggs and larvae showed a maximum values in summer (August). During the survey period, total 59 species (51 genus, 26 families and 10 orders) of fish larvae were identified. Among the 10 orders, Perciformes (41 species, 15 families), Scorpaeniformes (7 species, 2 families) and Gasterosteiformes (2 species, 2 families) were the dominant species in this study area. The number of species was higher in high water temperature period than in low one, showing a peak in August as 25 species, and the lowest in May as 6 species. Engraulis japonicus, Scomber japonicus and Scombridae spp. which were migratory fish species occurred abundantly in summer. On the other hand, Sebastiscus marmoratus and Sebastes inermis which were sedentary fish species occurred abundantly in winter.

This study has used differential display-PCR, to amplify genes transcribed during the ovarian maturation induced by human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG). The cDNA expressed at the times of acquisition of oocyte maturational competence in red seabream (Pagrus major) following treatment with hCG was amplified and cloned. A full-length of cDNA for p. major was isolated using differential display-PCR and 5'RACE. This cDNA clone contained 2,662 nucleotides including the open reading frame that encoded 434 amino acids. Homology analyses, using the GenBank and EMBL general database searches, indicated that the nucleotides sequence of the cDNA does not have high homology with any other genes. This cDNA was judged to be a gene, which induction of maturational competence coincides with increase of mRNA related ovarian maturation. Consensus sequences which were consistent with protein kinase C phosphorylation sites and casein kinase II phosphorylation sites were identified. in vitro, the transcription level of mRNA related ovarian maturation increased between 9hr and 24hr following treatment of ovarian follicles with hCG. It was also increased after GtH-II (300 ng/ml) stimulation. Furthermore, in vivo, mRNA related ovarian maturation was rarely expressed prior to the acquisition of oocyte maturational competence, but was strongly expressed after the acquisition of oocyte maturational competence, suggesting that the hCG induction of maturational competence is brought about by the de novo synthesis of the mRNA related ovarian maturation in p. major.

We investigated the effects of organic acid and ultrasonication treatment in maintaining the quality of garlic during storage. Samples were exposed for 5 min to either ultrasonication at 60℃, 1% citric acid, or 0.5% fumaric acid. Presence of microorganisms and minerals, hardness, and color were compared during storage at 4℃ for 28 days. The total aerobic bacterial count remained low. No proliferation of Escherichia coli was observed after treatment with fumaric acid or ultrasonication, and mold proliferation was inhibited by ultrasonication. The mineral content of the northern type garlic was higher than that of the southern type. Exposure to fumaric acid did not result in a substantial difference in hardness until 21 days of storage, at which time there was a decrease in the L-value in each cultivation type. Our results indicate that treatment with 0.5% fumaric acid for 5 min was effective in reducing the abundance of microorganisms during storage without affecting the hardness or color in garlic.

This study was carried out to survey and confirm the occurring sites of Parnassius bremeri in Korea, and to investigate ecological characteristics to develop a mass rearing technique. In the field survey, adults were found in the two previously known sites in Gyungnam Province and another site was newly found in Samcheok, Gangwon Province. Emergence period of adults was from middle of May to middle of June. Oviposition took place on various material, including hostplant, debris, dead leaves, etc. Eggs were laid singly, up to 126.7 eggs per female. The egg-period was 221.3${\pm}$2.3 days, eggs were hatched from 11th to 22nd of January in the natural condition, and started to feed for about 10 days after hatching. Survival rate of the 1st larvae was 67.6%. Developing period of each instar in the insectary (25$^{\circ}C$, 75% RH, 16L:8D) was 11.2 days for the 1st instar, 7.3 days for 2nd, 12.8 days for 3rd, 16.2 days for 4th, and 18.2 days for 5th, and the pupal period was 21.3 days. The average longevity of adults was 26.2 days. Oviposition rate was higher in the natural condition with enough space to fly for 3♀ : 1 ♂ coupled, at least 3 ${\times}$ 3${\times}$4 m-sized room, than in smaller cage. In a comparison of the preference for visiting on sugar source, black sugar and fructose were effective.

Some biological phenomena of Anagrus incarnatus Haliday, an egg parasitoid of planthopper, were studied under three different constant temperatures. Duration from egg to adult emergence of the parasitoid from the BPH eggs were 21.5, 13.6 and 10.6 days under $20^{\circ}C$, $25^{\circ}C$ and $30^{\circ}C$, respectively. Rate of the development was highly correlated with temperature. The critical temperature was estimated as $10.0^{\circ}C$ and the effective degree days was 210.3 day-degree. Durations for the development of A. incarnatus under 25$\pm$$1^{\circ}C$ (16L : 8D) were 12.4, 12.5 and 12.1 days from eggs of N. lugens, S. furcifera and L. striatellus, respectively. Duration of the development of A. incarnatus from 1, 3, 5, 7 days old BPH eggs were 12.5, 12.1, 12.9 days, respectively. The average longevity of adult was 5.3 days under 25$\pm$$1^{\circ}C$. Number of the ovarian and practically oviposited eggs were 34.8$\pm$28 and 28.3$\pm$0., respectively. Female A. incarnatus laid most of the eggs within few days after the emergence ; over 60% within 24 hours, nearly 90% upto the 2nd day, and nearly 100% upto the 3rd day.

Species composition and seasonal variation of fish eggs and larvae were investigated from 2017 to 2018. During the study period, the fish eggs were identified as belonging to 6 taxa. The dominant species of fish eggs were Engraulis japonicus, Leiognathus nuchalis, and Konosirus punctatus. These three species accounted for 96% of the total number of individuals collected. The collected larval fishes were identified into 17 taxa, 11 families, and 5 orders. The dominant species of larval fish were Engraulis japonicus, Leiognathus nuchalis, and Konosirus punctatus. These three species accounted for 70% of the total number of individuals collected. The diversity index of the larval fishes was the highest in summer (H'=1.78) and the lowest in winter (H'=1.34). The economically important species in this area were Engraulis japonicus, Konosirus punctatus, Sebastes schlegelii, Cynoglossus joyneri and Stephanolepis cirrhifer.

We surveyed the IRRI farm to determine the extent of parasitization of yellow stemborer egg masses. The egg masses were randomly collected at weekly intervals from July to October 1984 from rice fields, 15-20 days after transplanting, and brought to the laboratory for collection of emerging parasites. Three species of hymenopterous parasitoids-Tetrasticus schoenobii, Telenomus rowani, and Trichogramma japonicum-were found from 700 egg masses. We introduced a method to calculate percent parasitism as based on parasite biology and behaviour. Among the three species, the combination of T. rowani and T. japonicum was the highest multiparasitization of yellow stem borer egg masses, and T. rowani, a solitary parasite had the highest number based on immature and adult stages counted. However, T. schoenobii may be the most efficient parasite because two to four host eggs are needed to complete the larval period, and it took $10{\sim}14$ days for one generation.

Distribution of ichthyoplankton in the adjacent waters to Kori were surveyed during the period from April, 1991 to January, 1992. The dominant fish eggs included the eggs of Engraulis japonica, Maurolicus muelleri, Callionymus spp. and others. The eggs of Engrualis japonica and Maurolicus muelleri were $79.52\%$ and $1.86\%$ of the total eggs abundance, respectively. A total of 15 taxa of fish larvae were found. The dominant species was Engraulis japonica accounting for $52.39\%$ of the total larvae and followed by Callionymidae fish($29.36\%$). Other major species were Stephanolepis cirrhifer($6.30\%$), Sebastes schlegeli($3.16\%$), Ammodytes personatus($1.33\%$) and Girella punctata($1.70\%$). These 6 taxa constituted $94.30\%$ of the total larvae collected. In this area, distributions of warm water had a great influence on larvae and juvenile distribution which usually is along the coast and the other places where there layer water movements since, upwelling in the open sea affects ichthyoplankton distribution.
