This study was undertaken to reveal the relationship between genetic variations and inheritance patterns and the development of a systemic white coat color frequently observed in Jeju horses. It was determined that the white coat color occurred in all basic coat colored (black, bay and chestnut) horses by combining the phenotype and MC1R genotypes. There were no polymorphisms found in Jeju horses tested for mutational loci in the KIT gene, which were previously reported as potential mutations of the congenital dominant white coat color in other horse breeds in heterogeneity. The horses that had the 4.6-kb duplication in the STX17 intron 6 specifically showed the depigmented white coat color. Based on observation and STX17 genotypes, this depigmented whitening is defined as 'Chongma' (whitening, progressive graying with age-Gray) in Jeju horses. Pedigrees showed that this is an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern distinct from the bovine albinism caused by an autosomal recessive passion eye color. Because the gray phenotype is generally not completely expressed early in Jeju horses, it often makes them indistinguishable from other horses. Further studies are recommended for classification between the gray coat color and its similar phenotypes, such as the roan with its mixed hair colors appearing since neonatal period, acquired white hairs on wounded skin by veterinary treatment, and vitiligo-like skin pigmentation. However, study results revealing the relationship between the gray phenotype and genetic background suggested that useful information may be provided in regards to molecular breeding of Jeju horses.

유채(Brassica napus L.)는 식용유 생산을 목적으로 재배되며, 1975년에는 26.8천ha가 재배되어 연간 생산량이 34.7천톤이 생산되었으나, 외국으로부터 값싼 식용유의 대량수입으로 재배면적이 급격하게 감소되었다. 그러나 최근에 지방자치단체를 중심으로 경관용 재배면적이 증가하고 있고, 건강에 대한 관심이 높아짐에 따라 국내산 non-GM 식용유 생산을 목적으로 유채 재배면적이 급격하게 증가하고 있다. 유채의 대량생산을 위해서는 논 재배가 필수적이나 유채와 벼의 이모작 재배 시기가 겹치는 문제점이 발생하고 있어 조생종 유채의 품종개발과 함께 봄 파종이 가능한 유채의 품종 육성에 대한 요구가 매우 높다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 국내 보유 유채를 포함하는 십자화과(Cruciferae) 유전자원의 특성 평가를 통해 극조숙 유채 품종 육성을 조기에 육성하기 위해 실시하였다. 농촌진흥청 국립유전자원센터에서 분양받은 유전자원 146계통을 파종 재배하면서 핵형분석과 외부형질을 기준으로 정확한 종을 동정하였고, 각 유전자원의 생육 및 개화특성을 조사하였다. 유전자원들을 세포분석기를 이용하여 핵형을 분석한 결과, 전체 146개의 유전자원 중 유채(B. napus L.) 128계통, 갓(B. juncea Sinsk) 6계통, 배추(B. campestris Makino) 9계통, 미분류 3계통 등으로 조사되었다. 유전자원을 가을 파종(10월 22일)하였을 때 개화가 가장 빠른 계통(IT 279089)이 파종 후 137일 이후인 3월7일부터 개화가 시작되었고, 가장 늦은 계통(IT 279198)은 191일 후인 4월 30일에 개화가 시작되었다. 봄 파종(2월 4일)하였을 때 개화가 가장 빠른 계통(IT 279089)이 파종 후 79일 이후인 4월 23일부터 개화가 시작되었고 IT 279092 등 29계통은 추대와 개화가 되지 않았다. 위와 같은 연구결과를 토대로 개화시기가 빠른 유전자원을 육종을 위한 인공교배 시화분친이나 종자친으로 이용하면 지방산 품질이 좋고 극조숙성인 유채 품종의 개발이 가능할 것으로 생각된다.

The very low density apolipoprotein-II (apoVLDL-II) gene is closely related with the constitution of the lipoprotein in various tissues. The apoVLDL-II gene have main functions for reducing fat elements from tissues and muscles. Previous results indicated that the polymorphisms in apoVLDL-II gene were positively related with growth and body composition traits in chicken. In this study, we analyzed previously identified apoVLDL-II gene polymorphisms using the PCR-RFLP method and investigated allele and genotype frequencies in three chicken breeds. Data indicated that Korean native chicken and Korean Oge chicken have similar B and F gene frequencies, indicating that this marker can be used for the improvement of growth and body composition traits in those breeds and can be used as marker assisted selection with further verifications.

In this paper, we analyzed the multilayer structure with lossy metamaterials using ABCD Matrix method to get the transmission characteristics. Compared to the recursive method which cannot be used to analyze the lossy characteristics of multilayer structure because of its complexity, we used the ABCD matrix method is easy to apply because of its matrix chain concepts for arbitrary number of multilayer structure and lossy material. To verify the results of this paper, we used both for multilayer dielectric and metamaterial, respectively, and obtained the same results. Multilayer structure with lossy metamaterial showed minimized ripple and broadband transmission compared to dielectric multilayered structure. This can be used in various applications as antenna radome and shielding material, etc.

In this paper, the resonance characteristics and radiation characteristics of a spherical patch on a dielectric sphere are analyzed. Resonance characteristics can be obtained from the resonant frequency and the quality factor. Radiation characteristics can be also analyzed from the E-field in the far region. In order to calculate these parameters, spectral domain analysis method is applied. Algebraic equation can be obtained in spectral domain through Vector Legendre transform pair and Galerkin's method. So, efficient calculation is possible numerically. It is investigated that radius, curvature of a spherical patch, and dielectric constant of a dielectric sphere have an effect on characteristics of a spherical patch.

By direct sequencing of 12 STS marker, we identified 10 polymorphic SNPs. As a result of genotype frequency analysis between 10 polymorphic SNPs and extreme population (n=20) for marbling score in Hanwoo (n=233), there was over 40 percent of frequency difference of HWSNP_1-1 and HWSNP_9-4 SNP. HWSNP_1-1 SNP was significantly associated with marbling score in large-scale population (n=233). Therefore we suggested that HWSNP_1-1 SNP can be useful as a positional candidate for beef quality for marker-assisted selection in Hanwoo.

유전체 전장 연관분석 (GWAS)은 단일염기다형성(SNP)의 유전자형과 표현형 간의 통계적인 연관성을 분석함으로써 품종 선발용 SNP Marker 개발에 응용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 Tano Red와 Ruby seedless 교배실생 278 계통을 대상으로 여러 과실 특성에 따른 관련 SNP를 동정함으로써 육종 선발에 필요한 DNA marker 개발에 필요한 기초 유전 자료를 얻고자 하였다. 한 계통 당 5~10개의 포도알을 선택하여 과립중, 과육탄성, 과피탄성, 과육경도, 과피경도, 과립당 종자갯수, 과립당 종자무게 및 인장강도를 측정하였다. 각 개체는 Genotyping by sequencing (GBS) 방법으로 Sequencing하여 Reference genome (Vitis vinifera PN40024 12X v2.)과 mapping 하였다. MAF (Minor allele frequency) >5%, Missing Data <30% 의 조건을 가진 SNPs 만 1차 선발하여 TASSEL과 GAPIT 프로그램으로 GWAS 분석을 하였다. Manhattan plot 결과 과립중 형질에서는 33개, 과립당 종자무게 25개와 인장강도에서는 20개의 통계학적으로 유의한 SNPs 가 선발되었고, 특이적으로 이들 모두 18번 염색체에서 발견되었다. 그러나 나머지 형질에서는 유의한 차이를 보이는 SNPs를 선발하지 못하였다. 과실의 인장강도는 수확 후 저장성과 유통과정에 영향을 미치기 때문에 Marker 개발을 통한 품종선별이 중요하다. 향후 이러한 특성과 본 연구를 통해 동정된 SNPs 의 상관관계를 구체적으로 연구하여 Marker 개발에 활용하고자 한다.

The objectives of this study were to investigate the genetic and phenotypic features of male sterile transformants by pollen-specific expression of diphtheria toxin gene and to find out inheritance patterns of transgene to the next generation. When backcrossed (BC) progenies were tested for expression of kanamycin resistance ($Km^R$), 9 lines out of 13 lines, except 4 lines ($BC_{1}5-13,\;BC_{1}5-23,\;BC_{1}5-28,\;BC_{1}5-32$), showed the ratio of $Km^R$ to kanamycin sensitive ($Km^S$), from 1:30 to all $Km^S$. As a result, they were much lower than Mendelian segregation of a dominant gene. To determine whether male sterility is a heritable and stable trait, 5 male sterile plants ($BC_{1}5-13,\;BC_{1}5-14,\;BC_{1}5-23,\;BC_{1}5-32,\;BC_{1}5-33$ lines) which had different transgene copy numbers were backcrossed as female parents with pollens from wild type. To confirm the existence of the DTx-A gene in the genome of the progenies, PCR was conducted using specific primers of the DTx-A coding region. A PCR band of 428 bp was obtained from each generation, which is the predicted size of the DTx-A gene fragment. Trangenes were inherited to the next $BC_4T_0$ progenies and showed male sterility, however, based on the copy numbers of DTx-A gene male sterile plants did not show predicted ratio. When male sterile plants were backcrossed with fertile plants, fruit capsule sizes and seed settings were relatively reduced from those of selfing wild type plants. The fruit sizes and seed settings were reduced in proportion to the increase in the copy number of DTx-A gene.

Meat quality has always been one of the most important factors that controls the choice of pork consumers and is of great interest in the pig industry. In this study, we identified a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the enoyl-CoA delta isomerase 2 (ECI2) gene in Berkshire pigs (n = 430) by analyzed the association between the SNP and meat quality traits. The non-synonymous SNP in the ECI2 gene is located at c.608 C > G and resulted in an amino acid change from threonine to serine. Significant associations between the SNP and meat quality traits, such as redness (CIE a), and the $pH_{24hr}$, were revealed in both the dominant and co-dominant models, whereas carcass weight, drip loss, and fat content and moisture content were significantly associated only with the dominant model. In barrow, the SNP was significantly associated with CIE a, drip loss, and $pH_{24hr}$, whereas in gilt, only a significant relationship with moisture content was observed. GG genotype pigs had a higher $pH_{24hr}$ and lower drip loss. Because $pH_{24hr}$ and drip loss are considered the most important meat quality traits, GG genotype pork is high-quality meat compared to that from other genotypes. In conclusion, the SNP in the ECI2 gene is significantly associated with several meat quality traits. These traits and could be as genetic markers in molecular breeding programs for improving meat quality.
