This study was conducted to estimate genetic parameters for growth and egg production traits in Black Korean native chicken (L strain) and Korean White Leghorn (F, K strains) using a multi-traits animal model BLUP. Traits used for this study were body weight at 150 days (BW150) and 270 days (BW270), age at first egg (DAY1st), egg weight at first egg (EW1st) and 270 days (EW270), and number of eggs laid by 270 days (EP270), and included 68,688 pedigree and 123,905 performance records collected from 2001 to 2013. In L, F, K strains, heritability estimates of BW150 were high (0.48, 0.52 and 0.50, respectively); of BW270 were high (0.56, 0.57 and 0.56); of DAY1st were medium to high (0.45, 0.39 and 0.31); of EW1st were low (0.15, 0.16 and 0.15); of EW270 were high (0.58, 0.55 and 0.59) and of EP270 were moderate (0.22, 0.21 and 0.20). The genetic and phenotypic correlation of DAY1st with EP270 were highly negative (-0.73 to -0.63 and -0.48 to -0.42). The genetic and phenotypic correlation of EP270 with BW150 and BW270, respectively were low negative (-0.16 to 0.01 and -0.14 to -0.03) and low to moderate positive (-0.08 to 0.07 and -0.13 to 0.04). The genetic and phenotypic correlation of EW270 with BW150 and BW270, respectively were moderate to high positive (0.39 to 0.49 and 0.36 to 0.46) and (0.29 to 0.33 and 0.34 to 0.37). The study showed that there is a potential for genetic improvement of Korean Indigenous chicken through selection program.

Countries of the world are competing for the collection and utilization of genetic resources, which is a resource of value-added industrialization. We are building database of silkworm and mulberry resources with morphological, genetic characteristics data etc. Moreover, recent bioactive compound has been receiving increasing attention. So we analyzed 1-deoxynojirimycin(1-DNJ) content as a this item in addition to the basic information using 363 strains(varieties) of mulberry genetic resources. They were grown under the same environment and conditions. Mulberry leaves were collected and then freeze-dried and powdered for 1-DNJ test. As a result, 1-DNJ mean content of 363 mulberry strains was $0.176{\pm}0.077%$, and the coefficient of variation (CV) was 43.5%. The variation between the strains was greatly severe. Among the tested strains, 'C1D89/29' was showed the highest content of 0.47%, whereas 'Pumbo 24' and 'Turkey E' were showed the lowest content of 0.05% respectively. The content of 1-DNJ of 16 mulberry varieties for silkworm rearing were compared. Average concentration was $0.17{\pm}0.04%$, and the coefficient of variation (CV) was 22.8%. Variation among cultivars was not significant. Finally we selected 1-DNJ high-containing 11 strains. They are as follows. 'C1D89/29', 'Hiihak', 'Jeokasibmunja', 'Gweonchil', 'Botongsibmunja', 'Jeokchuk', 'bulguksang', 'Geunsookgojo', 'Busanggeum', 'Guksang 20' and 'Taekwang' which are more than twice of the overall average content.

A total of 35 strains of Ralstonia solanacearum isolated from wilted pepper and tomato plants in Korea were analyzed for their genetic diversity by bacteriological, pathological and molecular biological approaches. All the strains were identified as R. solanacearum biovar 4 on the basis of physiological and biochemical tests, and species-specific PCR primers. Pathogenicity of the strains was confirmed by inoculating on 4-week-old pepper and tomato seedlings. Using cluster analysis based on repetitive sequence-based polymerase chain reaction (rep-PCR) genomic fingerprints, R. solanacearum strains isolated from pepper and tomato in Korea divided into 6 groups showing a high degree of genetic diversity at 55% similarity level. The genetic diversify of strains was not significantly correlated with their geographic origins and host plants.

This study was carried out to investigate the time-trends of genetic parameters of the dosed flock population which selected for improving egg production. Data for two layer pure lines, Line-W (Single Comb White Leghorn) and Line-B (brown layer) which have been maintained at the Mani Breeding Farm were collected from 1980 to 1985 during 5 generations. The effective number of parents per generation ranged from 148 to 366 in Line-W and 85 to 355 in Line-B, and the cumulative expected inbreeding coefficients during 5 generations of selection were 15％ and 1.6％. So inbreeding could not be considered a critical factor on estimating the genetic parameters, heritabilities and genetic correlations Heritabilities of EN 300 and EN 400, primary two selected traits were significantly decreased during 5 generations but the estimates of the other 03its not showed the consistent decreasing pattern significantly. No time trends of probable consequence were evident in the genetic correlation coefficients of the traits studied. The reason for that situation was attributed to the fact that selection was conducted for multiple objectives and the relative importance of selection for the studied traits were not consistent by generations.

In system planing and operation, voltage and reactive power control is very important. The voltage deviation and system losses can be reduced through control of reactive power sources. In general, there are several different reactive power sources, we used switched shunt capacitor to improve the voltage profile and to reduce system losses. Since there are many switched shunt capacitors in power system, so it if necessary to coordinate these switched shunt capacitors. In this study, Genetic Algorithm (GA) is used to find optimal coordination of switched shunt capacitors in a local area of power system. In case study, the effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated in KEPCO's power system. The simulation is performed by PSS/E and the results of simulation are compared with sensitivity method.

한국산 Drosophila melanogaster species group 8종의 생화학적 유연관계를 조사하기 위하여 3령기 유충, 말기 번데기, 성체의 세 발생단계에서 각각 효소 분석을 실시하였다. Rogers의 공식에 의해 각 발생단계 별로 8종간의 유전적 유사도를 계산하고 그 값을 근거로 UPGMA법에 의한 dendrogram을 작성하였다. 발생단계에 따라 관찰된 효소allele의 빈도는 큰 차이를 나타냈는데 이는 효소의 활성도나 유전자 발현의 발생단계별 차이로 생각되었다 이러한 발생단계별 효소분석 결과의 차이에도 불구하고 세 발생단계에서 모두 같은 pattern의 dendrogram이 얻어졌다. 따라서 대소 분석은 성체뿐만 아니라 유충이나 번데기와 같은 초기발생단계를 재료로 취할 때에도 종간 유연관계의 분석에 유용한 분석법이 될 것으로 생각할 수 있었다 세 발생단계에서 효소분석을 통해 얻어진 결과로 볼 때 D. melanogaster species group 8종은 크게 두개의 계통으로 나뉘었는데 D. melonogaster와 여. simulons, D. lutescens가 한 계통에 속했고 D. suzukii와 D. aurauia, D. biourariu, D. trioururia, D. rufa가 다른 한 계통에 속하고 있는 것으로 나타났다.

In the present study, we conducted genetic characterization of 90 commercial maize varieties and parental lines using microsatellite markers. Thirteen microsatellite markers were selected from 100 primer pairs in the maize genome data on the basis of polymorphism information contents (PIC) value and distinct amplification products. These markers detected 5 to 24 alleles, with an average of 13.69. The mean PIC value was 0.865 and ranged from 0.716 to 0.942. The unweighted pair-group method with arithmetical average (UPGMA) analysis was conducted for constructing the dendrogram using Jaccard's genetic similarity coefficient. The genetic similarity varied from 0.07 to 0.824. Thirteen microsatellite markers identified all 90 maize varieties and parental lines. The maize varieties were clustered into 5 major groups consistent with type and pedigree information. The microsatellite profile database of maize varieties could be used to select comparative varieties through genetic relationship analysis between existing varieties and candidate varieties in distinctness tests.

This study aims to provide basic data for investigating the phenotypic traits and growth characteristics of Korean native black goats. The Jangsu and Tongyoung strains were shown to have black hair, while the Dangjin strain was shown to have black or dark brown long hair. Only the Tongyeong strain was found to have no wattle and one goat each from the females and males of the Dangjin strain was found to have no horns. The lengths of the ears and tails were similar for the female and male goats, while the lengths of horns and beards were longer in the male goats. The birth weight was 2 kg on average, with that of male goats tending to be slightly heavier than that of the females. Weights at the weaning period were found to be slightly heavier for the males. Also, at 12 months, the weights of the male goats by strain were shown to be heavier than that of the females. The body length and depth by strain were found to be higher for the male goats, while no differences in the chest width and girth between the strains or gender were found. These findings are expected to be used as a basis for differentiating between native and crossbred Korean black goat strains and for improving Korean native black goats.
