The genetic diversity and population structure of Potentilla freyniana in Korea were determined using genetic variations at 19 allozyme loci. Thirteen of the 19 loci (68.4%) showed detectable polymorphism. Genetic diversity at the population level was high ($H_{EP}$ = 0.270). Total genetic diversity values ($H_T$) varied between 0.190 and 0.584, giving an average overall polymorphic loci of 0.371. The interlocus variation of genetic diversity within populations ($H_S$) was high (0.354). On a per locus basis, the proportion of total genetic variation due to differences among populations ($G_{ST}$) ranged from 0.008 for Fe-2 to 0.310 for Gpi with a mean of 0.065, indicating that about 6.5% of the total allozyme variation was among populations. Wide geographic ranges, perennial herbaceous nature and the persistence of multiple generations are associated with the high level of genetic variation in P. freyniana. The estimate of gene flow based on $G_{ST}$, was high among Korean populations of P. freyniana (Nm =3.57). Although P. freyniana usually propagated by asexually-produced ramets, I could not rule out the possibility that sexual reproduction occurred at a low rate because each ramet may produce terminal flowers.

As the chip size gets smaller, the width of the electrode line is also fine, and the density of interconnections is increasing. As a result, RC delay is becoming a problem due to the difference in resistance between the capacitor layer and the electrical conductivity layer. To solve this problem, the development of electrodes with high electrical conductivity and dielectric materials with low dielectric constant is required. In this study, we developed low dielectric ink by mixing commercial PSR which protect PCB's circuits from external factors and PI with excellent thermal property and low-k characteristics. As a result, the ink mixture of PSR and PI 10:3 showed the best results, with a dielectric constant of about 2.6 and 2.37 at 20 GHz and 28 GHz, respectively, and dielectric dissipation was measured at about 0.022 and 0.016. In order to verify the applicability of future applications, various line-width transmission lines produced on Teflon were evaluated, and as a result, the loss of transmission lines using low dielectric ink mixed with PI was 0.12 dB less on average in S21 than when only PSR was used.

Effect of the sintering time on the microwave dielectric properties of the layered Functionally Graded Materials(FGMs) of the Mg0.93Ca0.07TiO3(MCT) with (Ca0.3Li0.14Sm0.42)TiO3(CLST) ceramics was investigated. The dielectric constant of layered FGMs specimens showed a nearly constant value and did not change significantly with sintering time. The quality factor, however, was affected by the relative density and thermal stress developed in each dielectric layer. With an increase of the relative density and the decrease of the induced thermal stresses, quality factor of the layered FGMs specimens increased and the quality factor was incluenced sensitively by the change of compressive stress developed in MCT layers which had a lower thermal expansion coefficient than that of CLST. For the layered FGMs specimen sintered at 1300$^{\circ}C$ for 9h, the compressive stress developed in MCT layer showed the maximum value, which, in turn, the quality factor of the specimen was the minimum value.

We evaluated the phenetic relationships within six taxa of genus Oxalis L. in Korea with random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers. Ten primers produced 125 bands for six taxa, and the mean number of bands per primer was 12.5. Across the six taxa, 121 (96.8%) bands were polymorphic, and only four were monomorphic. The mean number of RAPD phenotypes across the six taxa varied from 3.6 (O. stricta and O. corymbosa) to 4.8 (O. corniculata for. rubrifolia). In a simple measure of intraspecies variability according to the percentage of polymorphic bands, O. stricta and O. corymbosa exhibited the lowest variation (28.8%), and O. corniculata for. rubrifolia showed the highest (38.4%). A mean of 32.7% of the loci was polymorphic within taxa. The total interspecies genetic diversity ($H_T$) and intraspecies genetic diversity ($H_S$) was 0.362 and 0.122, respectively. On a per-locus basis, the proportion of total genetic variation due to differences among species ($G_{ST}$) was 0.663. This indicates that about 66.3% of the total variation was among species. The node of O. stricta and O. corniculata for. rubrifolia was strongly supported, with a high bootstrap value in the NJ tree and sistered with O. corniculata. According to RAPD analysis, the number of chromosomes was not congruent with a phenetic relationship.

The main objective of this topic is to establish strategies and to plan biotechnology researches which are related to the agricultural improvements especially focusing on the crop breeding in Korea. From 1960's to 1980's government policy had been emphasized to develope high yielding cultivars for the self sufficient supply of the staple food crops. As a result, considerable increase of rice production has been made with accumulating technology and man's powers. Recently genetically modified crops harboring useful characteristics have been developed using biotechnology and released in the developed countries. National research institutes and private companies have been developed biotechnology researches to establish competitive capabilities, however they have not been successfully used in commercialization. Therefore it is necessary to promote the practical. application by connecting molecular technology with conventional breeding. Proposed research projects are; (1) basic researches including plant genome studies, (2) developing new cultivars through gene transformation, (3) screening and producing antioxidants, secondary metabolite substances and edible vaccines. To set a government policy, both domestic and international research trends were reviewed and possibility of success based on the economic view point were discussed. The intellectual property and preservation of environment play a key role to decide the research priority. It is also necessary for us to make one step system for the distribution of research resources such as microorganisms, genes cloned, plant seeds and research informations for promoting research activities.

This study utilized 32,312 records of 17 linear type and 10 conformation traits(including final scores) of Hanwoo cows in the KAIA(Korea Animal Improvement Association) ('09~'10), with 60,556 animals in the pedigree file. Traits included stature, body length, strength, body depth, angularity, shank thickness, rump angle, rump length, pin bone width, thigh thickness, udder volume, teat length, teat placement, foot angle, hock angle, rear leg back view, body balance, breed characteristic, head development, forequarter quality, back line, rump, thigh development, udder development, leg line, and final score. Genetic and residual(co) variances were estimated using bi-trait pairwise analyses with EM-REML algorithm. Herd-year-classifier, year at classification, and calving stage were considered as fixed effects with classification months as a covariate. The heritability estimates ranged from 0.03(teat placement) to 0.42(body length). Rump length had the highest positive genetic correlation with pin bone width(0.96). Moreover, stature, body length, strength, and body depth had the highest positive genetic correlations with rump length, pin bone width, and thigh thickness(0.81-0.94). Stature, body length, strength, body depth, rump length, pin bone width, and thigh thickness traits also had high positive genetic correlations.

The finding of contrasting results regarding an association between schizophrenia and the Mlul polymorphism site in the dopamine $D_3$ receptor gene prompted us to study the distribution of this palymorphism in Korean schizophrenic patients and controls. The author's approach was case-control study. Schizophrenic patients (n=66) and controls (n=76) were examined by case-control study for distribution of the Mlul polymorphism of the dopamine $D_3$ receptor gene in Korean population to minimize the effect of racial differencies in gene frequencies. The frequency of the allele 1 in schizophrenic patients and controls was 0.66 and 0.76, respectively. There was no significant differencies in the frequency of the allele 1 between schizophrenic patients and controls ($x^2$=3.07, p>.05), and between positive and negative schizophrenic patients ($x^2$=1.02, p>.05). We present here the evidence of a lack of alleic association between the Mlul polymorphism of the dopamine $D_3$ receptor gene and Korean schizophrenic patients and also report no increased homozygosity for the Mlul polymorphism. The assumption that the dopamine $D_3$ receptor gene has a predisposing role in schizophrenia was not supported by this case-control study. Although, the possibility that this gene has a minor gene effects in the etiology of schizophrenia cannot be excluded because of the intrinsic limitations of the methods of analysis and number of subjects in our study.

The characteristics of polymeric thin-film transistors(TFTs) can be controlled by chemically modifying the surface of the gate dielectric prior to the organic semiconductor. The chemical treatment consists of derivative the tantalum pentoxide($Ta_2O_5$) surface with organic materials to form self-assembled monolayer(SAM). The deposition of an octadecyl-trichlorosilane(OTS), hexamethy-ldisilazone(HMDS), aminopropyltreithoxysilane(ATS) SAM leads to a mobility of $0.01\sim0.06cm2/V{\cdot}s$ in a poly-3-hexylthiophene(P3HT) conjugated polymer. The mobility enhancement mechanism is likely to involve molecular interactions between the polymer and SAM. These result can be used for polymer TFT's dielectric material.

Grains in the BaTiO₃, which is used for a dielectric layer in MLCC(Multi-Layer Ceramic Capacitor) are necessary to form core/shell structure for a stable TCC(Temperature Coefficient of Capacitance) behavior. The shell property has been deduced from the whole TCC behavior of core/shell structure due to its tiny size, ~ few ㎛. This study demonstrates the individual TCC behavior of the shell phase measured by micro-contact measurement in a temperature range between 35 and 135℃. Pt electrode pairs deposited on an enlarged core/shell structure in a diffusion couple sample made the measurement possible. As a result, the DPT (Diffusion Phase Transition) behavior of the shell phase was revealed as a different TCC behavior from that of the core: a broad peak with T_m at 65℃. This would be also useful experimental data for a modelling that depicts dielectric-temperature behavior of core/shell structure.
