Inter simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers were performed in order to analyse the genetic relation-ships of both taxa of Gardenia jasminoides var. radicans and G. jasminoides for. grandifora. Over the 88 fragments, only one locus (ISSR-11-05) was specific to G. jasminoides var. radicans and only one (ISSR-09-05) G. jasminoides for. grandiflora. Although G. jasminoides var. radicans showed low levels of alleles and Shannon's information index than G. jasminoides for. Grandiflora, however, there was not significant differences (p > 0.05). For both taxa the mean genetic diversity of natural populations was higher than that of cultivation populations. It was suggested that domestication processes via artificial selection do not have eroded the high levels of genetic diversity. ISSR markers were more effective in classifying natural populations of wild G. jasminoides in East Asia as well as cultivated G. jasminoides. The information about the phylogenetic relationship of G. jasminoides var. radicans and its closely related species is very valuable of the systematics of genus Gardenia, the origin of cultivated G. jasminoides, and future G. jasminoides breeding.

여울과 소는 하천의 물리적 특성(경사, 하상재료, 지질의 형태)에 따라 자연적으로 형성되며, 이에 따라 하도 지형이 다양하게 변화하고 생물의 서식처의 다양성이 확보됨으로써 하천의 생태환경에 긍정적인 영향을 미친다. 우리나라의 경우 하천주변의 충적평야에서 벼농사가 이루어지므로 아주 많은 농업용 취수보가 설치되어 있으며, 또한 하상경사가 급하므로 하상안정을 위하여 낙차공 등의 하상유지공도 상류에 많이 설치되어 있는 실정이다. 취수보 및 하상유지공 등의 하천횡단구조물은 하상의 종적 연속성을 단절시키고, 상류측에 대규모의 정체수역을 형성함으로써 하도의 자연적인 여울-소 지형특성을 훼손함과 더불어 흐름 다양성을 단순화시킨다. 이러한 하천횡단구조물의 부정적 영향은 수서동물의 이동통로를 차단할 뿐 아니라 수서동물의 서식처를 단순화함으로써 생태계에 부정적 영향을 미쳐서 생물종의 다양성을 훼손하는 심각한 문제를 초래하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 하천횡단구조물이 여울-소의 형성에 미치는 영향을 규명하기 위하여 경상남도의 하천 중 유역면적이 $100km^2$ 이상인 하천 중에서 하천횡단구조물의 영향을 받는 하천의 구간과 하천횡단구조물의 영향을 받지 않는 하천의 구간을 분류하여 하천횡단구조물이 여울-소에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 하천횡단구조물이 여울-소 형성에 미치는 영향을 하상경사에 따라 구분하였으며 그에 따라 하천횡단구조물이 여울에 미치는 영향을 비교하였다. 상류에는 배수위의 영향으로 정체수나 인위적인 평여울이 발생하며, 하류에는 낙차로 인하여 소나 여울이 발생하지만, 그 빈도는 하천횡단구조물의 설치 간격에 따라 자연상태에서 보다는 현저히 낮게 나타났다. 경남 지방에서 유역면적 $100km^2$ 이상인 30개 하천 중에서 16개의 하천에 설치된 하천차단시설물은 보 405개소와 낙차공 129개 총 534개를 조사하였으며, 하천차단시설물의 설치간격 및 높이가 여울-소의 형성에 가장 큰 영향을 미친다는 사실을 확인하였다.

This study was conducted to identify changes of insect compositions and diversity after construction of an onshore wind farm. We investigated insect fauna and compositions between a grassland deforested by the construction and a forest located at Yeongdeok and Yeongyang, Gyeongsangbuk-do, Korea. Insects were collected using a sweeping net and light trap. A total of 11 orders, 50 families, and 246 species, and 1,076 individuals were collected at study sites. By taxonomic group, Lepidoptera species were the most frequently found with 141 species, 417 individuals (38.8%), followed by Hymenoptera (20.6%), Hemiptera (16.2%), and Orthoptera (12.3%). There were also significant differences in insect species and community compositions between sites. Creating open-field deforested forests are beneficial for some insect groups such as Hymenoptera and Orthoptera. Our results suggest that deforesting by the construction of an onshore wind farm might affect the composition and diversity of insects. Results of this study provide basic data for research on onshore wind farms.

The Demilitarized Zone(DMZ) is a buffer zone set between the southern and northern limit lines established after the 1953 Armistice Agreement. It is an important natural environment conservation area where wild species of animals and plants live. On the other hand, the development pressure on the DMZ will increase when the inter-Korean economic cooperation is activated in the future. As a result, DMZ development should consider not only the economic cost-benefit aspects, but also how to assess and conserve the biodiversity of the DMZ, as well as the recovery costs and budget. This paper develope a sustainable DMZ management model under biodiversity uncertainly by using real option approach. The model is also designed to reflect the political risk and regional specificity of the DMZ. Through empirical analysis, I derive the biodiversity threshold (b^*) that can secure the DMZ investment economy under uncertainty. In addition, through the sensitivity analysis, I derive the factors influencing the biodiversity threshold, and suggest the policy implications for sustainable management of DMZ.

In this study, the extracts of carrot (Daucus carota var. sativa) leaf fermented with Weizmannia coagulans KK7 strain were investigated for the anti-inflammatory activities and component changes. The KK7 strain was isolated from kimchi, a Korean fermented vegetable. The high-performance liquid chromatography was performed to analyze the changes in the components of the carrot leaf extracts before and after fermentation. It was confirmed that the content of luteolin, a kind of flavonoid, was significantly increased after fermentation. The anti-inflammatory activities of the carrot leaf extracts and the fermented carrot leaf extracts were evaluated by the inhibition of NO (nitric oxide) production in LPS-induced RAW 264.7 cells. The NO scavenging ability of the fermented carrot leaf extracts was higher than the other extracts. The protein expression of iNOS, an enzyme responsible for the NO production was significantly reduced in a concentration-dependent manner by treatment with the fermented carrot leaf extracts. In conclusion, we found that the anti-inflammatory effect of carrot leaf was increased by microbial fermentation, suggesting that carrot leaf generally discarded could be used as new food and cosmetic materials through fermentation.

This study was conducted to carry out with the structure of ground-beetles(Coleoptera: Carabidae) community surveyed depending on altitude in Mt. Gabjangsan, Sangju, from August 2004 to October 2004. The 1,439 individuals in 15 species of 4 families were found in the survey. In the monthly taxa diversity, September of 697 individuals and 12 species was higher than August of 102 individuals and 8 species and October of 640 individuals and 5 families. The diversity index and evenness index were the lowest, but richness index was the highest in 800m altitude. The richness index was the highest in 400m altitude and evenness index was the highest in loom altitude. Synuchus cycloderus is a dominant species in 300-800m altitude and Synuchus nitidus is a dominant species in loom altitude. In these results, indicator insects for the evaluation of golf courses environment in mountain area construction were selected as S. cycloderus and S. nitidus.

최근 인터넷이 발달하면서 인터넷 상의 다양한 컴퓨터들을 연결함으로써 이기종 클러스터 환경 구축이 용이해졌다. 이러한 이기종 클러스터 환경에서 알고리즘의 이식성을 높이기 위해서는 네트워크의 특성 및 노드의 이질성에 따른 부하 불균형에 효과적으로 적응할 수 있어야 한다 본 논문에서는 이기종 클러스터 환경에서 Message Passing 방식을 이용한 고성능 클러스터 컴퓨팅 작업 시 최적의 효율을 얻을 수 있는 Enhanced-WF 알고리즘을 제시한다 Enhanced-WF 알고리즘은 부하공유를 위하여 Weighted Factoring 알고리즘을 기반으로 적응할당정책을 적용하는 동시에 네트워크 통신시간과 계산시간을 겹치게 한다. Enhanced-WF 알고리즘의 성능을 측정하기 위해 이기종 PC클러스터 환경에서 PVM을 이용한 행렬곱셈 프로그램을 이용하였다. 그 결과, Enhanced-WF 알고리즘이 이기종 클러스터 환경에서 Send, GSS, Weighted Factoring 알고리즘과 같은 기존의 부하공유 알고리즘보다 효과적임을 보였다.

The degree to which microenvironmental factors are linked to spatial patterns of vegetational factors within ecosystems has important consequences for our understanding of how ecosytems are structured and for conservation of rare species in ecosystems. We studied this relationships between the spatial patterns of microenvironmental factors and vegetational factors in temperate hardwood forest in Mt. Jumbong Biological Reserve Area, Korea. To do this, environmental and vegetational factors from 196 micropoints in a 0.49 ha plot were investigated. Most of all environmental factors and vegetational factors showed the variations among micropoints. Microtopographic factors, litter depth, soil moisture content and relative light intensity at this site were spatially dependent at a scale of 14∼62 m. Coverage of tree and shrub layer and species diversity of herb layer in autumn were spatially dependent at a scale of < 15 m. Species richness and species diversity of herb layer in spring and species richness of herb layer in autumn were spatially dependent at a scale of 28∼48 m. Multiple regression analysis showed that spatial patterns of species richness and species diversity of herb layer in spring and autumn were affected by litter depth, slope, subtree layer, shrub, Sasa borealis etc. The best predictor for the spatial patterns of species richness and species diversity of herb layer at this site was the spatial pattern of litter depth. Species richness and species diversity of herb layer showed strongly negative correlation with litter depth. We estimate that the spatial pattern of litter depth at this site were affected by direction of wind, microtopography and spatial pattern of shrub layer.
