The emergence of next-generation sequencing technologies has lead to application of new computational and statistical methodologies that allow incorporating genetic information from entire genomes of many individuals composing the population. For example, using single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) obtained from whole genome amplification platforms such as the Ilummina BovineSNP50 chip, many researchers are actively engaged in the genetic evaluation of cattle livestock using whole genome relationship analyses. In this study, we estimated the genomic relationship matrix (GRM) and compared it with one computed using a pedigree relationship matrix (PRM) using a population of Hanwoo. This project is a preliminary study that will eventually include future work on genomic selection and prediction. Data used in this study were obtained from 187 blood samples consisting of the progeny of 20 young bulls collected after parentage testing from the Hanwoo improvement center, National Agriculture Cooperative Federation as well as 103 blood samples from the progeny of 12 proven bulls collected from farms around the Kyong-buk area in South Korea. The data set was divided into two cases for analysis. In the first case missing genotypes were included. In the second case missing genotypes were excluded. The effect of missing genotypes on the accuracy of genomic relationship estimation was investigated. Estimation of relationships using genomic information was also carried out chromosome by chromosome for whole genomic SNP markers based on the regression method using allele frequencies across loci. The average correlation coefficient and standard deviation between relationships using pedigree information and chromosomal genomic information using data which was verified using a parentage test andeliminated missing genotypes was $0.81{\pm}0.04$ and their correlation coefficient when using whole genomic information was 0.98, which was higher. Variation in relationships between non-inbred half sibs was $0.22{\pm}0.17$ on chromosomal and $0.22{\pm}0.04$ on whole genomic SNP markers. The variations were larger and unusual values were observed when non-parentage test data were included. So, relationship matrix by genomic information can be useful for genetic evaluation of animal breeding.

최근 차세대 시퀀싱 (Next Generation Sequencing, NGS) 기술이 발전하면서 DNA, RNA 등의 시퀀싱 데이터를 이용한 유전체 분석 방식에 관한 연구가 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 차세대 시퀀싱 데이터를 이용한 유전체 분석 방식은 마이크로어레이 혹은 EST/cDNA 데이터를 이용한 기존의 분석 방식에 비하여 비용이 적게 들고 정확한 결과를 얻을 수 있다는 장점이 있다. 그러나 이 들 DNA, RNA 시퀀싱 데이터는 각 시퀀스의 길이가 짧고 전체 용량은 매우 커서 이 들 데이터로부터 정확한 분석 결과를 추출하는 데에 많은 어려움이 있다. 본 연구에서는 클라우드 컴퓨팅 기술을 기반으로 하여 대용량의 RNA 시퀀싱 데이터를 고속으로 처리하는 병렬 SNP 추출 알고리즘을 제안한다. 전체 게놈 데이터 중 유전자 영역만을 high coverage로 시퀀싱하여 얻어지는 RNA 시퀀싱 데이터는 유전자 변이 추출을 목적으로 분석되며, SNP(Single Nucleotide Polymorphism)와 같은 유전자 변이는 질병의 원인 규명 및 치료법 개발에 직접 이용된다. 제안된 알고리즘은 동시에 실행되는 다수의 Map/Reduce 함수에 의해서 대규모 RNA 시퀀스를 병렬로 처리하며, 레퍼런스 시퀀스에 매핑된 각 염기의 출현 빈도와 품질점수를 이용하여 SNP를 추출한다. 또한 이 들 SNP 추출 결과에 대한 시각적 분석 도구를 제공하여 SNP 추출 과정 및 근거를 시각적으로 확인/검증할 수 있도록 지원한다.

The purpose of functional genome research is to identify biological function of useful gene and to give an agricultural value in plant biotechnology. Brassica rapa is an economic crop which recorded 1,000 billion won of domestic market and 100 million dollar of exports and it produces 2.5 million ton in 50,000 ha as a major ingredient of representative Korean food, Kimchi. Furthermore, it is very important crop economically and commercially because Korea is major seed exporter. The fact that Multinational Brassica Genome Project (MBGP) was launched and Arabidopsis thaliana, affiliated to same genus with B. rapa, has been fully sequenced activated functional genome research of B. rapa. Besides new technologies related to gene function analysis keep developing, many results are reporting every year by international research including Korea. This review paper introduces development of Chinese cabbage mutants which is a first step in functional genome research, variant phenotypes of mutants, flanking DNA analysis in B. rapa genome, gene identification, gene analysis using microarray, and representative researches.

A silent type ozone generator using water surface has been studied and improved its ozone generation characteristics by installing dielectric heads in the just under the surface of the wale- At this time, different permittivitis of dielectric beads were used to change the discharge condition of water surface. The current-voltage characteristics and characteristics of ozone generation quantity of the test system were investigated and discharge photos of glass beads were observed The height of Taylor cone may be the cause of the discharge bridge to decrease the ozone generation on the discharge spacing. In this study, the hight of Taylor cone could be controlled greatly by installing dielectric beads just under the water surface. Therefore a higher ozone generation also could be obtained. As the permittivity of dielectric material increased. discharge starting voltage was advanced and maximum 110 ppmy of ozone was generated by using the ferroelectric ball.

Conserved genes are importantly used to understand the major function in survival and replication of living organism. This study was focused on identification of conserved genes in microbial species and measuring the degree of conservation. For this purpose, in silico analysis was performed to search conserved genes based on the conservation level within microbial species. The ortholog list of COGs (Clusters of Orthologous Groups of proteins) in NCBI was used and whole genomes of 43 microbial species were included in that list. The distance value, derived from CLUSTALW multiple alignment program, was used as a descriptor of the conservation level of orthologs. It was revealed that 43 microbial genomes hold 72 conserved orthologs in common. The majority(72.2%) of the conserved genes was related to "translation, ribosomal structure and biogenesis" functional category. A GTPase-translation elogation factor(COG0050) was the best conserved gene from the distance value analysis. The 72 conserved genes, found in this research, would be useful not only to study minimal function genes but also new drug target among pathogens and to make a model of the virtual cell.tual cell.
