Solanum demissum is one of the wild Solanum species originating from Mexico. It has wildly been used for potato breeding due to its resistance to Phytophthora infestans. S. demissum has an EBN value of four, which is same as that of S. tuberosum, so that it is directly crossable for breeding purposes with the cultivated tetraploid potato (S. tuberosum). In this study, the chloroplast genome sequence of S. demissum obtained by next-generation sequencing technology was described and compared with those of seven other Solanum species to develop S. demissum-specific markers. Thetotal sequence length of the chloroplast genome is 155,558 bp, and its structural organization is similar to those of other Solanum species. Phylogenetic analysis with ten other Solanaceae species revealed that S. demissum is most closely grouped with S. hougasii and S. stoloniferum followed by S. berthaultii and S. tuberosum. Additional comparison of the chloroplast genome sequence with those of seven other Solanum species revealed two InDels specific to S. demissum. Based on these InDels, two PCR-based markers for discriminating S. demissum from other Solanum species were developed. The results obtained in this study will provide an opportunity to investigate more detailed evolutionary and breeding aspects in Solanum species.

Hexaploid wheat (common wheat/bread wheat) is one of the most important cereal crops in the world and a model for research of an allopolyploid plant with a large, highly repetitive genome. In the heritability of agronomic traits, variation in gene presence/absence plays an important role. However, there have been relatively few studies on the variation in gene presence/absence in crop species, including common wheat. Recently, a reference genome sequence of common wheat has been fully annotated and published. In addition, advanced next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology provides high quality genome sequences with continually decreasing NGS prices, thereby dawning full-scale wheat functional genomic studies in other crops as well as common wheat, in spite of their large and complex genomes. In this review, we provide information about the available tools and methodologies for wheat functional genomics research supported by NGS technology. The use of the NGS and functional genomics technology is expected to be a powerful strategy to select elite lines for a number of germplasms.

Brassica rapa is an A genome model species for Brassica crop genetics, genomics, and breeding. With the completion of sequencing the B. rapa genome, functional analysis of the genome is forthcoming issue. The expressed sequence tags are fundamental resources supporting annotation and functional analysis of the genome including identification of tissue-specific genes and promoters. As of July 2011, 147,217 ESTs from 39 cDNA libraries of B. rapa are reported in the public database. However, little information can be retrieved from the sequences due to lack of organized databases. To leverage the sequence information and to maximize the use of publicly-available EST collections, the Brassica rapa tissue-specific EST database (BrTED) is developed. BrTED includes sequence information of 23,962 unigenes assembled by StackPack program. The unigene set is used as a query unit for various analyses such as BLAST against TAIR gene model, functional annotation using MIPS and UniProt, gene ontology analysis, and prediction of tissue-specific unigene sets based on statistics test. The database is composed of two main units, EST sequence processing and information retrieving unit and tissue-specific expression profile analysis unit. Information and data in both units are tightly inter-connected to each other using a web based browsing system. RT-PCR evaluation of 29 selected unigene sets successfully amplified amplicons from the target tissues of B. rapa. BrTED provided here allows the user to identify and analyze the expression of genes of interest and aid efforts to interpret the B. rapa genome through functional genomics. In addition, it can be used as a public resource in providing reference information to study the genus Brassica and other closely related crop crucifer plants.

Single Nucleotide Polymorphism(SNP)는 인간 유전자 서열의 0.1%에 해당하는 부분으로 이는 각 개인의 체질 및 각종 유전질환과 밀접한 관련이 있다고 알려져 있다. 최근 이 SNP정보의 패턴을 이용 질병의 진단 및 치료에 연관지으려는 노력이 시도되고 있다. 그러나 아직 SNP를 이용한 효율적인 분석방법에 대한 전산학적 연구는 많지 않다. 본 논문에서는 대표적인 패턴인식기 중 하나인 Support Vector Machine(SVM)을 이용 한국인의 대표적인 유전질환으로 알려진 만성간염에 대해서 관련된 SNP에 대한 패턴 인식율 측정을 실험하였다. 실험 데이터는 간 및 소화기 질환 유전체 센터에서 얻어진 만성간염 환자와 관련 SNP정보를 사용하였으며, 실험 결과 전체 SNP 정보를 모두 가지는 환자그룹에 대한 학습인식율이 66.46%로 나타났으며, 부분그룹에서는 72.91%로 높은 인식율을 보였다. 이 결과는 SNP 정보를 이용한 만성간염의 초기진단예측에 SVM을 효율적으로 사용할 수 있음을 보인다.

Genetic diversity and genetic structures were estimated in seven natural populations of Phellodendron amurense Rupr in South Korea using ISSR markers. The average of polymorphic loci per primer and the proportion of polymorphic loci per population were 4.5 and 78.8% respectively with total 27 polymorphic loci from 6 ISSR primers. The Shannon's diversity index(I) was 0.421 and the expected heterozygosity($H_e$) was 0.285, which was similar to the heterozygosity (hs =0.287) inferred by Bayesian method. In AMOVA, 7.6% of total genetic variation in the populations was resulted from the genetic difference among populations and the other 92.4% was resulted from the difference among individuals within populations. Genetic differentiation(${\theta}^{II}$) and inbreeding coefficient(f) for total population were estimated to be 0.066 and 0.479 by Bayesian method respectively. In Bayesian clustering analysis, seven populations were assigned into three groups. This result was similar to the results of genetic relationships by UPGMA and PCA. The first group included Hwachoen, Gapyeong, Bongpyeong and Yongpyeong population, and the second included two populations in Sancheong region. Muju population was discretely assigned into the third group in spite of the geographically short distance from the Sancheong region. There was no significant correlation between genetic relationship and geographic distribution among populations in Mantel's test. For conservation of the phellodendron trees, it would be effective to consider the findings resulted from this study with ecological traits and life histories of this species.

Until now, various oncogenic pathways were idenfied. The accumulation of DNA mutation induces genomic instability in the cell, and it makes cancer. The development of bioinformatics and genomics, to find the precise and reliable biomarker is available. This biomarker could be applied the early-dignosis, prediction and convalescence of cancer. Recently, Transposable elements (TEs) have been attracted as the regulator of genes, because they occupy a half of human genome, and the cause of various diseases. TEs induce DNA mutation, as well as the regulation of gene expression, that makes to cancer development. So, we confirmed the relationship between TEs and colon cancer, and provided the clue for colon cancer biomarker. First, we confirmed long interspersed nuclear element-1 (LINE-1), Alu, and long terminal repeats (LTRs) and their relationship to colon cancer. Because these elements have large composition and enormous effect to the human genome. Interestingly, colon cancer specific patterns were detected, such as the hypomethylation of LINE-1, LINE-1 insertion in the APC gene, hypo- or hypermethylation of Alu, and isoform derived from LTR insertion. Moreover, hypomethylation of LINE-1 in proto-oncogene is used as the biomarker of colon cancer metastasis, and MLH1 mutation induced by Alu is detected in familial or hereditary colon cancer. The genes, effected by TEs, were analyzed their expression patterns by in silico analysis. Then, we provided tissue- and gender-specific expression patterns. This information can provide reliable cancer biomarker, and apply to prediction and diagnosis of colon cancer.

Solanum hougasii, one of the wild Solanum species, has been widely used in potato breeding since it exhibits excellent resistance to diverse important pathogens. S. hougasii can be directly crossed with the cultivated tetraploid potato (S. tuberosum) owing to its EBN (Endosperm Balanced Number) value of 4, which is same as that of S. tuberosum although it is an allohexaploid. In this study, the complete chloroplast genome sequence of S. hougasii was obtained by next-generation sequencing technology, and compared with that of the chloroplast genome of seven other Solanum species to identify S. hougasii-specific PCR markers. The length of the complete chloroplast genome of S. hougasii was 155,549 bp. The structural organization of the chloroplast genome in S. hougasii was found to be similar to that of seven other Solanum species studied. Phylogenetic analysis of S. hougasii with ten other Solanaceae family members revealed that S. hougasii was most closely related to S. stoloniferum, followed by S. berthaultii, and S. tuberosum. Additional comparison of the chloroplast genome sequence with that of five other Solanum species revealed five InDels and 43 SNPs specific to S. hougasii. Based on these SNPs, four PCR-based markers were developed for the differentiation of S. hougasii from other Solanum species. The results obtained in this study will aid in exploring the evolutionary and breeding aspects of Solanum species.

In this paper, we proposed a simultaneous switching noise (SSN) reduction technique in multi-layer boards (MLB) for high-speed digital applications and analyzed it using the Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) method. The new structure using conductive dielectric substrates is effective for the reduction of SSN couplings and resonances. The uniform insertion of the conducive layer reduced the SSN coupling and resonance by 85% and the partial insertion only around the edges reduced by 55% respectively.
