Genetic variation of the beet armyworm, Spodoptera exigua (Hubner), was analyzed by polymorphic allozymes. Field populations were subdivided by different hosts, geographical locations, and seasons. Estimated average heterozygosity ($0.443\pm$0.013) indicated high genetic variation in all field populations of S. exigua. There were significant inbreeding effects deviated from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium in each of subpopulations. These significant nonrandom matings were caused by within-subpopulations probably due to sampling errors, but not by mating isolation among subpopulations. Wrights ($F_{ST}$ ) and Neis (D) genetic distances indicated little genetic differentiation among subpopulations, though some southern local subpopulations (Haenam and Sachon) were relatively different of northern subpopulations (Andong and Kunwi). Estimated number of migrants per generation was 5.9 among host subpopulations, 10.6 among geographical subpopulations, and 31.8 among seasonal subpopulations. These genetic analyses suggest that Korean S. exigua subpopulations have little genetic differentiation mostly due to their significant migratory capacity.

Restriction endonucleases were used to search for intraspecific variation at 32 cleavage sites in mitochondrial DNA(mtDNA) purified from fourteen strains of Drosophila melanogaster helonging to different localities of the world. mtDNA of D. melanogaster was displayed site variation(Hpall, Haelll and Seal endonucleases) and length variation(maxirnum 550bp). Six genotypes, Ml, M2, M3, M4, M6 and M7, could be distinguished based on ihe site types witti a low average of intraspecific substitution rate (1.88%),but M5 type of Ogasawara strain in Japan was not detected in this study. A possible explanation for the low divergence was that mtDNA variation of fourteen strains in D. melanogaster could not he accumulated sufficiently owing to recent divergence of few individuals, and that sequence divergence was prevented by frequent migration in spite of the geographical isolation.

Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) of a DNA has been a useful tool for analyzing genetic variation. This research was performed to establish an RFLP analytic method on the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) of the beet armyworm, Spodoptera exigua (Hiibner). To do this, total size of the mtDNA was measured and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primers were selected. Its mitochondrial genome size was ca. 16kb. From a serial PCR test of 29 primers refered to the compilation of Simon et al. (1994), 22 primers were selected to amplify its mtDNA fragments. These primers resulted in short (300-700 bp) or long (1000-2000 bp) DNA products which represented a total or partial sequence of each of CO-I, CO-11, Cyt-B, ND-1, 12s rRNA, 16s rRNA, and some tRNAs. PCR-RFLP was performed in some variable mtDNA regions with 8 kinds of 4bp recognizing restriction enzymes. Different populations from Andong, Kyungsan, and Sunchun did not show any restriction site polymorphisms but had some length variation in certain regions of mtDNA.

연어류의 종간교배 실험과 LDH, MDH, IDH, $\alpha$GODH, ME 등 다섯가지 isozyme에 대한 genetic marker로서의 활용 가능성을 알아보고자 1차적으로 연어, 산천어 및 무지개송어를 이용하여 종간교배를 실시하였고 이들 세종의 isozyme pattern을 비교하였다. 교배실험은 종간교배, 및 allotriploid 구간 등 12구간으로 나누어 실시하였으며 연어 암컷과 산천어 수컷의 교배결과가 초기성장 단계적에서 가장 우수하게 나타났고이들의 allotriploid도 부활율이 28.1%로 가장 우수하였다. Genetic identification을 위한 isozyme loci 분석결과 연어와 산천어는 대부분의 loci에서 거의 찾아볼 수 없었고 무지개송어는 MDH-B와 IDH에서 다형현상을 확인할 수 있었다. 특히 MDH-B loci는 b 유전자의 출현 빈도에서 세 종간의 식별이 가능하였으며, IDH pattern을 산천어와 무지개송어의 비교에 유효한 것으로 나타났다. 이들 두 loci는 hybrid의 genotype 분석시 유용한 marker로 활용할 수 있는 가능성을 보였고, 앞으로의 어류 육종에 좋은 기초 자료로 이용될 것으로 사료된다.

국내 11개 지역(경기도 옹진군 덕적도, 경기도 의정부시 소요산, 강원도 춘천시, 충청남도 태안군 안홍, 경상북도 울릉군 울릉도, 전라북도 부안군 변산, 전라남도 신안군 홍도, 흑산도 비금도, 진도, 제주도)에서 채집된 달팽이 (A. despecta sieboleiana)를 대상으로 외부형태 분석과 동위효소를 검출하여 각 지역 집단간의 형태적, 유전적 유연관계와 변이 정도를 연구한 결과는 다음과 같다. 외부형태에 의한 집단간 유연관계는 안홍과 덕적도집단(average taxonomic distance, D=0.358)이 형태적으로 가장 유사한 집단으로 나타났다. Polyacrylamide gel을 사용하여 11가지의 동위효소를 검출한 결과 AKP, ACP, AO, EST, GPD, HBDH, LDH, SDH, XDH의 동위효소에서 유전적 다형현상이 나타났다. 전 집단의 평균 다형형의 빈도는 59.19%이며 이형접합자 빈도는 0.263이고 각 집단의 유전적 차이치는 춘천과 울릉도 집단이 0.066(genetic distance)으로 가장 높은 유사성을 보였다. 지리적 분포에 따른 외부형태 변이와 유전적 변이와의 관계는 유의성이 없었다.

Serum protein and hemoglobin patterns were obtained by cellulose acetate electrophoresis for several anurans. Differences were found both in the number of components from individual animal hemoglobins and in the mobility of these components. Under the conditions employed, toad and R. plancyichosenica had a single component. Other frogs showed 2-component pattern. Sera of all anurans examined contain albumin but no preablumin. Relatively few assayable proteins are found in serum from B. buro gragraizans and differ thereby from most serum patterns examined for frogs, which show complex serum protein bands. Different species have dissimilar patterns although some of bands are apparently homologous between species.

Bacterial blight caused by Xantomonas oryzae pv. oryzae is one of the most serious diseases of rice especially in southern area of Korea. Three races, $\textrm{K}_1$, $\textrm{K}_2$ and $\textrm{K}_3$, are the most dominant species. lo improve rice breeding efficiency using marker assisted selection, some RFLP markers were surveyed for polymorphism between resistant and susceptible to $\textrm{K}_1$ and $\textrm{K}_3$. And, 127 doubled-haploid (DH) lines derived from Milyang121/HRl1650-1-4-2 and 131 DH lines derived from Milyang123/HR10624-AC5 were evaluated to bacterial blight ($\textrm{K}_1$ and $\textrm{K}_3$). Milyang121 and HR10624-AC5 have Xa-1, resistant to $\textrm{K}_1$ race, and Milyang123 has Xa-3, resistant to $\textrm{K}_1$ and $\textrm{K}_3$ race. Three markers, RZ590, RZ536 and RG303, showing polymorphism between parents and resistance gene, Xa-1 and Xa-3, were analysed in the two combinations of DH lines. The segregation pattern of resistant DH population of Milyang123/HR10624-AC5 to susceptible showed 3:1 and 1:1 in $\textrm{K}_1$ and $\textrm{K}_3$ race. In three RFLP markers, RZ590 was linked to Xa-1 on chromosome 4, and RZ536 and RG303 were linked to Xa-3 on chromosome 11. The map distance between Xa-1 and RZ590 was 3.1cM on chromosome 4, and Xa-3 and RZ536/RG303 were 7.6/16.0cM on chromosome 11, respectively. The results of RFLP mapping will be useful for the selection and pyramiding of bacterial blight resistant genes.

This study was taken to isolate transferrin fractions from the sera of tilapia(Oreochromis niloticus) by physico-chemical analyses such as the rivanol precipitation, iron-staining method, SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and $^{59}FeCl_3$ autoradiography, and to calculate gene frequencies by using Hardy-Weinberg Law. The results obtained in this experiment were summarized as follow : 1. The transferrin fraction is composed of several components possessing relative lower electrophoretic mobilities and higher molecular sizes than the albumin components. 2. When different staining method was compared with transferrin in band, it was not found difference. 3. It was concluded that the optimun ratio of rivanol to serum was 2 : 1 and this ratio was used in all further fractionation. 4. The molecular weight of transferrin component was about 70,000 $\pm$ 2,000. 5. Tilapia transferrin fractionations were found to be polymorphic. 6. There transferrin variants(A, B and C) have been found in tilapia(Oreochromis niloticus) and Tf types were assumed to be controlled by three codominant alleles Tf A, Tf B and Tf C. Six different phenotypes can be theoretically expected Tf AA, Tf AB, Tf AC, Tf BB, Tf BC, and Tf CC. Only five types of these were observed and Tf CC types(homozygotes) was not found. 7. The frequencies of the three allele Tf A, Tf B and Tf C were 0.795, 0.15 and 0.055 respectively.

A silkworm Bombyx mori genomic DNA library was constructed from polyphagous J111 strain and unpolyphagous $C_3$ strain to develop the genomic study by DNA makers. Genomic DNAs of two strains were digested with restriction enzyme EcoRI and ligated into pUC18. The ligated plasmids were transferred into E. coli host strain DH5$\alpha$. When the genomic DNAs were hybridized with insert DNAs from transformant, could be categorized from hybridization patterns to three groups as high repetitive sequence, moderately repetitive sequence, and low-copy number sequences. A total of 219 clones containing single or low-copy number sequence inserts were examined for any polymorphisms between two strains of J111 and $C_3$. Forty six clones showed RFLPs and 10 of these clones were used as a probe of analysis of $F_2$ population derived from crossing between J111 and $C_3$ strain. The genetic inheritance tested with each clones will be important tools to construct the genetic map of the silkworm, Bombyx mori.
