The sulfur amino acid composition in soybean (Glycine max L.) seeds may be an essential characteristic of new cultivars for some animal diets. Variation in seed storage protein among genotypes might make it possible to improve the quality of seed protein by genetically altering seed storage protein composition through plant breeding. This study was carried out to determine if mutant strains have potential for improving seed protein quality in soybean. Ten mutant strains had a distinct characteristic of seed storage protein subunits. Among the mutant strains, the sulfur amino acid compositions(methionine plus cystein) of Keburi(P.I.417016), Keburi(P.I.506817), and P.I.54608-1 were relatively higher than those of the others and were 1.9, 2.1, and 1.8%, repectively, which might be due to low levels of ${\alpha}$, ${\alpha}$', and ${\beta}$ subunits of 7S protein. Therefore, it is concluded that the mutant strains, Keburi(P.I.417016), Keburi(P.I.506817), and P.I.54608-1 appear to be potential materials for a breeding program for improving sulfur amino acid composition, and the others also seem to be possible breeding materials for other uses.

Purpose : The p53 tumor suppressor gene is one of the most frequently altered genes in human malignancies. We try to explore the implication of p53 alteration in Ewing's sarcoma. Materials and Methods : We analyzed 35 paraffin blocks to explore the deletion and sequence alterations of p53. Results : Quantitative PCR analysis showed that 2 tumors showed a homozygous deletion of the gene. Mutational analysis of exons 4 to 9 of p53 by PCR-SSCP revealed that 3 tumors carry sequence alterations in exons 5 or 8, and DNA sequencing analysis identified missense point mutations. Conclusion : Taken together, our data demonstrate that p53 is genetically altered in a small fraction of Ewing's sarcoma.

'Radiation No. 6' the first mutant variety of naked barley in Korea was developed from Bangju as .a mother variety. The new variety was characterized by early maturity, short-culm and stablized high yield by the increased number of spikes. 'Radiation No. 6' was registered as a leading variety in 1974, .after 7 years since induction of mutation started.of mutation started.

Gamma irradiation is one of the simple methods used to induce mutagenesis. Therefore, it is widely used for the development of breeding lineages of plants and algae. In this study, it was developed a new variety of Pyropia yezoensis using gamma irradiation. It was applied a dose of 1 kGy and named the developed mutant Py1k. The blade with width of the mutant was narrower and the blade length was longer than those of the wild type. To further investigate the mutant, it was analyzed the nutrient composition and antioxidant activity. In comparison to those in the wild type, it was found a higher amino acid composition and marginally increased antioxidant activity in Py1k. Based on these results, it was suggests that our protocol can be utilized to develop Pyropia species with improved nutritional quality through gamma irradiation.

Gene editing technology using the clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR) and the CRISPR associated protein (Cas)9 has been highly anticipated in developing breeding techniques. In this study, we discuss gene scissors as a tool for silkworm molecular breeding through analysis of Bombyx mori Kynurenine 3-Monooxygenase (BmKMO) gene editing using the CRISPR/Cas9 system and analysis of generational transmission through mutagenesis and selective crossing. The nucleotide sequence of the BmKMO gene was analyzed, and three guide RNAs (gRNAs) were prepared. Each synthesized gRNA was combined with Cas9 protein and then analyzed by T7 endonuclease I after introduction into the BM-N silkworm cell line. To edit the silkworm gene, K1P gRNA and Cas9 complexes were subsequently microinjected into the silkworm embryos; the hatching rate was 18% and the incidence of mutation was 60%. The gene mutation was verified in the heterozygous G0 generation, but no phenotypic change was observed. In homozygotes generated by self-crossing, a mutant phenotype was observed. These results suggest that silkworm molecular breeding using the CRISPR/Cas9 system is possible and could be an effective way of shortening the time required.

토마토에서 과형은 과실의 여러 가지 형질 중에서 눈에 가장 잘 띄는 형질이며, 소비자의 토마토를 구매를 결정하는데 많은 영향을 미치는 중요한 형질이다. 토마토의 과형을 결정하는 여러 가지 유전자 중에 OVATE는 둥근 토마토 과일을 서양 배 모양(pear shape)의 과일로 전환하는데 결정적인 역할을 하는 유전자이다. OVATE 유전자에 의해서 과일의 모양이 변하는 것은 조기종결 코돈을 초래하는 열성 돌연변이에 의해서 유도되며, 단백질의 C-말단 영역이 제거됨에 따라 그 기능을 상실하여 나타나는 현상이다. OVATE 유전자는 주로 식물의 생식기관에서 발현되며, 꽃에서는 개악하기 10일전부터부터 전사체가 만들어지고 발달중인 과실에서는 개약 후 8일까지 전사체를 확인할 수 있다. 토마토 분자육종 과정에서 과형 판별을 위해서 OVATE 유전자 연관 분자표지는 보고된 바 있으나 OVATE 유전자 유래 분자표지는 보고된바가 없다. 본 연구에서 국내에서 육성된 육종 라인들의 resequencing을 통해 OVATE 유전자 염기서열간의 SNP를 발견하고 이들을 dCAPS 마커로 전환하여 분자표지를 개발했다. 이러한 분자표지는 둥근 토마토(round)와 서양 배모양(pear shape)토마토 육종 프로그램의 효율성과 정확성을 향상시키는데 활용할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.
