The purpose of this paper to present morphological normal chick chromosomes and develope avian cytogenetic techniques including chromosome preparation and banding technique. The early chick embryos provide a consistent source of material with hish mitotic cells. Although chick embryo tissue gives excellent preparations, the 4-5 days embryo is somewhat incovenient materials, Most imp of ant for avian Chromosome analysis are the technical protocols to achieve adequate preservation, spreading, and staining of the full chromosome complement. To precise chromosome analysis, pro-metaphase states are required. Best results of banding will be obtained from air dried slides prepared from early chick embryos that have been aged at least 1 week. Good G-banding differentiation is achieved by adequate trypsin digestion fellowed by staining in Goe,sa dye. The results of C-banding is influenced by many factors including the conditions of Ba(OH)$_2$, HCl treatment, and state of rinsing. In addition to precisely interprets banding patterns, the densitometric analysis is recommended.

As a series of systematic classification of paramphistomes, the worms in the rumen and reticulum of 310 Korean cattle slaughtered at Chonju abattoir were collected from February 1986 to June 1987 and were classified by morphology of the worms. Afterwards, the karyotype of Fischoederius cobboldi (Poirier, 1883), which is a very rare species in Korean cattle, was studied with germ cells of the worm by means of modified air-drying method. The chromosome numbers in the haploid and diploid cells of 315 F. cobboldi were n=9 and 2n=18, respectively. The meiotic divisions were observed frequently; 1,904 haploid and 49 diploid cells were recognized. Nine pairs of mitotic chromosomes were homologous in the metaphase stage and the chromosomes were composed of seven medium-sized metacentrics (m) or submetacentrics (sm) and two small-sized submetacentrics (sm). While, meiotic metaphases were composed of seven medium and two small·sized chromosomes. The 3rd, 4th, 2nd and 5th pairs of chromosomes was metacentric having centromere indices of 40.4%, 40.0%, 39.7% and 38.9%, respectively, and the remaining ones were submetacentric with centromere indices from 32,4% to 36.2%. As a series of C-banding method, C-band was shown in centromeric region from all of the haploid germ cells, except chromosome No. 1 which included heterochromatin at the tip region. Chromosomes No, 4, 6 and 9 showed remarkable C-band distinguished from others.

This study was carried out to establish the standard karyotype of Jeju horse by G-, C- and AgNOR-banding patterns. Blood samples were collected from 37 Jeju horses and 24 Thoroughbred that had been raised at the National Institute of Subtropical Agriculture in Jeju. The lymphocytes were cultured in vitro and then chromosomes prepared. The diploid chromosome number of Jeju horse is 64, which consists of 31 pairs of autosomes and X, Y sex chromosomes. The Jeju horse has 13 pairs of metacentric/submetacentric and 18 pairs of acrocentric autosomes. The X chromosome is the fifth largest submetacentric, while the Y chromosome is one of the smallest acrocentric chromosomes. The G-banding pattern of Jeju horse chromosomes showed a light band at centromeres in all autosomes, and also exhibited a typical and identical banding pattern in each homologous chromosome. Overall chromosomal morphology and positions of typical landmarks of the Jeju horse were virtually identical to those of International Committee for the Standardization of the Domestic Horse Karyotype. C-bands of Jeju horse chromosomes appeared on centromeres of almost all autosomes, but chromosome 8 showed a heterochromatin heteromorphism. The NORs in Jeju horse chromosomes showed polymorphic patterns within breed, individuals and cells. By the AgNOR staining, the NORs were located at the terminal of p-arm on chromosome 1 and near centromeres on the chromosome 26 and 31. The mean number of NORs per metaphase was 4.68 in Jeju horse.

Rubus nishimuranus Koidz. (Rosaceae), a species previously unrecorded for the Korean flora, was collected in the lowlands near a beach on Jeju Island. This species was known to be distributed only in Japan. R. nishimuranus differs from R. trifidus Thunb. ex Murray, by having leaves 3-foliate or sometimes the upper leaflets connate below and from R. hirustus Thunb. by having leaves ternate and the leaflets sessile or nearly so. The somatic chromosome number was 2n = 2x = 14 and the size of chromosomes ranged $1.2-2.5{\mu}m$. The chromosome complement of this species consisted of three pairs of metacentrics (chromosomes 1, 2 and 5), submetacentrics (chromosomes 3, 6 and 7) and a pair of subtelocentrics (chromosome 4).

유리화 동결법은 동결중 ice crystal의 형성이 이루어지지 않으므로 난자의 동결보존을 위한 유용한 동결방법이다. 이전의 연구에서 마우스의 난자를 ethylene glycol과 electron microscope grid를 이용한 유리화 동결법으로 동결 융해한 결과 기존의 slow freezing 방법에서보다 높은 생존율과 배발달율이 나타남을 관찰하였다. 그러나 동물과 인간 난자를 이용한 연구를 통하여 난자의 경우 동결 융해후 염색체에 부착되어 있는 미세소관인 방추사가 온도의 변화에 매우 민감하여 염색체 이상성이 증가되는 것이 보고되었다. 이에 본 연구에서는 성숙난자를 유리화동결법에 의해 동결 융해후 난자의 염색체와 방추사의 이상성이 증가되는지 알아보고자 본 실험을 수행하였다. ICR mouse의 성숙란을 채취하여 연구목적에 따라 fresh한 대조군과 동결음해 시킨 실험군으로 분류하였다. 동결방법은 난자를 1.5 M ethylene glycol (EG)에 2분 30초간 노출 시킨후 5.5 M EG와 1M sucrose가 첨가된 동결액에 20초간 노출시킨 후 Grid에 난자를 부착시킨 후 직접 액체질소에 침지하여 동결하였다. 동결후 난자는 5단계로 융해를 실시한 후 생존된 난자는 tubulin 항체를 이용한 immunostaining 방법으로 방추사의 이상성을 관찰하였고, 염색체는 난자를 고정 후 10% Giemza로 염색 후 염색체의 수적인 이상성을 관찰하였다. 염색체 분석결과 염색체 이상 빈도는 대조군의 경우 19.6%, 동결융해군은 32.8%로 관찰되었다. 또 방추사의 이상빈도는 대조군의 경우 20.2%, 동결 융해군은 32.3%로 관찰되어 동결 융해후의 난자에서 염색체와 방추사의 이상 빈도가 증가됨이 관찰되었다.찰되었다. 배아이식후 대조군과 실험군에서 각각 2 마리가 임신이되어 정상적인 산자를 분만하였다. 따라서 항동해제에 taxol의 첨가는 동결 융해후의 난자의 배발달율을 증진시킬 수 있었다..8%로 나타나 난할율 및 배반포 발생율에 있어서 융합조건에 따라 큰 차이는 없었으나 1.9㎸/cm, 30$\mu\textrm{s}$ 2회의 조건이 다른 조건들에 비하여 유의적으로 낮았다. 따라서, 체세포와 수핵란 세포질간의 융합율과 배반포 발생에 미치는 영향은 전압보다는 시간에 더 크게 받음을 알 수 있었으며, 이와 같은 결과에서 융합시 시간을 오래 주는 것보다 전압을 높이는 것이 수핵난자의 세포질에 상해를 줄이고 이후 배반포 발생에 유리할 것으로 사료되었다.면에서도 더욱 더 활발할 것으로 기대된다. 배란후 72시간째에 초음파진단기를 이용하여 난소의 난포발달을 조사한 결과 , 대조구와 bFF처리구에 비해 AI처리구에서 발달난포가 유의적으로 많은 것을 확인하였다. 이상과 같은 결과로, Anti-inhibin serum은 한우 자체에서 분비하는 Inhibin을 특이하게 억제하여 Inhibin에 의해 억제되는 FSH분비가 촉진됨으로써 난포발달과 estrogen의 농도가 촉진되는 것으로 사료되어 anti-inhibin serum이 한우의 과배란유기 효과가 있는 것으로 사료된다.정량 분석한 결과이다. 시편의 조성은 33.6 at% U, 66.4 at% O의 결과를 얻었다. 산화물 핵연료의 표면 관찰 및 정량 분석 시험시 시편 표면을 전도성 물질로 증착시키지 않고, Silver Paint 에 시편을 접착하는 방법으로도 만족한 시험 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.째, 회복기 중에 일어나는 입자들의 유입은 자기폭풍의 지속시간을 연장시키는 경향을 보이며

Comosomal polymorphism involving constitutive heterochromatin has been reported in mu, pigs, mouse, horse, chicken and so on. The chromosomal polymorphism of Japanese quail which includes constitutive heterochromatin as well the chromosomes without banding treatment has now been found. Through the use of a general technique that permits visualization of chromosome morphology and heterochromatin, three chromosomal variants have been found among birds ； ＋/＋ homozygous from, ＋/－ heterozygous form and －/－ homozygous form in chromosome 4. This variants appear to be common in the randombred population and stably inherited in a Mendelian fashion. These results suggest that the variants would be useful as chromosomal markers for various types of cytogenetic studies.

The purpose of this study was to locate the quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated with quality properties in the recombinant inbred lines derived from the 'Milyang 23' and 'Gihobyeo' cross. Four quality-related traits; protein content, amylose content, fat acid content and sensory value were measured. Eight QTLs for protein content were detected on chromosomes 1 (two loci), 3, 6, 7 and 8 (three loci), each accounting for $6.0\%\~15.2\%$ of the phenotypic variation. Three QTLs for amylose content were detected on chromosomes 6 and 7 (two loci), each explaining from $7.3\%\;to\;24.4\%$ of the phenotypic variation. Six QTLs for fat acid content were detected on chromosomes 2 (two loci), 3, 6 (two loci) and 7, each explaining form $5.5\%\;to\;14.0\%$ of the phenotypic variation. Six QTLs for sensory value were detected on chromosomes 2, 6, 7(two loci) and 8 (two loci), each accounting for $5.5\%\~10.3\%$ of the phenotypic variation.

The nodular hyperplasia of the thyroid is a common thyriod disease. Nodular hyperplasia does rarely progress to thyroid cancer. The differentiation of a nodular hyperplasia from a neoplasm may be simple or difficult, both clinically and anatomically. The papillary carcinoma of the thyroid is the most common type of thyroid malignancies. There were few studies about cytogenetic observation in thyroid cancer. But only one case of banding observation in nodular hyperplasia have been reported. In order to compare the chromosomal changes in the thyroid cancer and the noncancerous thyroid disease, we performed cytogenetic analysis in two papillary carcinoma and two nodular hyperplasia after cell culture. The chromosomal pattern of the nodular hyperplasia found was very heterogenous but no clonal abnormaly in both cases was observed. Case I : A modal chromosomal number was in 42-46 range. Chromosome 8, 19, 21. 22 were commonly lost. 9 structural anomalities among 51 analysed cells were observed but they were not clonal. Case II: A modal chromosomal number was 43. Chromosome 17 and 19 were commonly lossed. Common cytogenetic characters of this two nodular hyperplasia are hypodiploidity and very heterogenous chromosomal pattern. The result about the papillary carcinoma are as follow. In one case some numerical and structural chromosomal changes were observed. But they were not clonal abnormality. In another case the chromosomal pattern found was very heterogenous with a clonal abnormality of del(11)(q23). The modal number was 46. The del(11)(q23) a chromosomal change in papillary carcinoma of the thyroid have previously been reported(Eva Olah et al. 1989). We suggest that 11q deletion may be important role to pathogenesis of papillary carcinoma of the thyroid. According to this results, we could not find out specific differences about chromosomal changes and any relationship between the papillary carcinoma and the nodular hyperplasia.

This experiment was conducted to improve the performance of chickens by the precise separation and analysis of chromosomes which are integrated genetic materials, and by the use of gene manipulation techniques. Following are the main results obtained. 1. When the chromosomes were separated through the leucocyte culture and analyzed by Giemsa banding techniques (especially by the method in which 20 layers of banding patterns could be found in chromosome ＃1), the normal Patterns of chromosomes ＃l-9 and sex chromosomes, and the location of constitutive heterochromatin without any gene activities in all chromosomes were discovered. 2. To utilize the primodial germ cells (PGC) as the genetic vector which is one of the most important gene manipulation techniques, PGC's from triploid were transplanted to normal host embryos. Since the donor PGC's(3n) were found in the gonads of growing host embryos gene manipulation in poultry using PGC's, seemed to be possible.

In this study, we invesgated a cytogenetic analysis of the Pacific triploid abalone, Haliotis discus hannai induced by low temperature treatment. We got a lot of mitotic metaphase chromosome spreads from the triploid and diploid Pacific abalones' hatched larvae (trochophores). The chromosome number of diploid abalone was 2n = 36 and that of triploid abalone was 3n = 54, so the chromosome number of triploid abalone was 1.5 times higher than that of diploid abalone. We developed a modified flow cytometric method for Pacific abalone from the existing methods. We uesd 51 months aged triploid and diploid Pacific abalones' hemolymph to get the DNA contents by flow cytometry. The DNA content of diploid abalone was 1.743 pg/cell and the DNA content of triploid abalone was 1.49 times higher than that of diploid one. It proved that triploid abalone was consisted with two sets of maternal diploid and one set of paternal genome.
