Molecular typing of Bacillus anthracis has been extremely difficult due to the lack of polymorphic DNA markers. Aiming to develop a DNA marker specific for Bacillus anthracis and to be able to discriminate this species from Bacillus genus, we applied the random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD)-PCR. We have identified B. anthracis from various Bacillus species. The analysis performed by RAPD clearly demonstrated substantial genetic variations among Bacillus species. This type of analysis is an easy, quick and highly discriminatory technique that may help in diagnosis of anthrax.

Wood-rotting fungi of the Aphyllophorales were collected through field trips to mountain areas of the country from January to December of 1997. Through the observation and identification of specimens, two genera, Meruliopsis (type species=M. taxicola) and Pseudomerulius (type species=P. aureus), and four species, Phanerochaete calotricha, Phanerochaete chrysorhiza, Meruliopsis corium, and Pseudomerulius aureus were confirmed as new wood-rotting fungi to Korea and are registered here with descriptions.

In this study, through the analysis of the growth condition and prey of the largemouth bass, we tried to understand the characteristics of the aquatic animal community depending on the composition and shape of a artificial lake. The evaluation was conducted for Ilsan lake which is one of the largest urban artificial lakes in Korea. Weight gain rate of the Zone III (eco-zone) was more rapid based on the relationship of length and weight of largemouth bass. Total 16 and 9 species of fish were found in each Zone III and Zone I, II (artificial zones), which represented significantly higher diversity of fish species in Zone III than Zone I, II. Index of relative importance(IRI) was more diverse at Zone III and when considering the hunger rate the food stress was more serious at Zone I, II. the proportion of the population of fish, Zacco platypus revealed to be the dominant species, and Squalidus gracilis majimae and Rhinogobius brunneus inhabited only Zone III naturally rich. On account of low prey species diversity of Zone I, II, the Phylum Arthropoda like Heteroptera showed relatively higher prey ratio in stomach of largemouth bass than that of Zone III. It was possible to figure out aquatic animal community characteristics indirectly through analyzing the stomach contents of largemouth bass.

Streams changed by artificial factor those support positive functions but also negative function to humanbeing. Time and pathway exceed the lost of structure and negative function appearing as disturbance. Therefore, it is desirable to prepare right situation to break of a vicious circle. Stream ecology was evaluated with using ichthyofauna during three years at the three disturbed sites and reference sites in Nakdong River. Forty-one species belonging three orders and ten families were identified in six surveying sites of Nakdong River during 2007~2009. Korean endemic species (14 species, 34.1%) and alien (3 species, 7.3%) were identified in Nakdong River ichthyofauna. Species number, species diversity, ecosystem structure and habitat variability of ecosystem were applied to evaluate stream ecosystem. In view of three year comprehended data at six sites; numeric instability appeared Andong Dam and Naeseongcheon sites worse than Gamcheon and reference site, otherwise more numeric diversity appeared Gamcheon and reference site than Andong Dam and Naeseongcheon. As a result of integration, sand stream including downstream of Andong dam, Naeseongcheon and Gamcheon has been having more diversified biodiversity and habitat diversity than those in the pebble stream.

Forest ecosystems are major reservoirs because forest lands are up to 65% of the national land of Korea. Biodiversity is the basis of forest conservation as well as development of forest ecosystem productivity. When we are going to establish biodiversity conservation strategies, however, we need to have a good eye in order that we are not limited only to species but we can also understand whole ecosystems. Therefore, to develop the biodiversity conservation strategies, global environmental problems, the development process of biodiversity on the earth, the fundamental logic of biodiversity conservation, the conservation system and steps of the conservation procedures are discussed. In conclusion, research subjects needed urgently are recommended.

최근 컴퓨터 바이러스와 해킹 기법의 기술적인 향상으로 인하여 바이러스로 인한 피해가 확산되고 있다. 이에 따른 바이러스와 해킹 피해들로부터 시스템과 사용자 데이터를 보호하기 위한 다양한 방법들이 연구 및 적용되어 있다. 하지만 기존의 연구는 이기종으로 구성된 서로 이질적인 네트워크 환경에 적용하고 사용하기 위해서는 많은 수동적인 노력과 시간을 필요로 하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이기종으로 구성된 네트워크상에서 이동 에이전트를 이용한 바이러스 탐색 기법에 대해 연구하였다. 제시한 방법은 사용자들에게 바이러스 탐색 에이전트와 관련된 해당 호스트상에서의 탐색업무 수행 투명성을 제공하여 호스트의 부하에 큰 영향을 주지 않는 방안으로써 자바 언어 특성인 플랫폼의 독립성이라는 이점을 지원하고 있는 자바 기반의 바이러스 탐색 시스템을 설계하였다. 이는 중앙 집중 관리 형태의 서버기반 방식으로 등록된 지역 네트워크 내의 이질적인 호스트에서 각 호스트의 부하를 고려하여 바이러스 탐색 업무를 수행함으로써 사용자로 하여금 능동성과 자율성, 바이러스 탐색 업무에 있어서의 투명성을 제공할 수 있는 컴퓨터 바이러스 탐색 업무를 수행하는 이동 에이전트 기반의 탐색 시스템을 새롭게 제안한다.

수산 생물의 종에 따른 생물학적 다양성은 각기 독특한 성질을 갖는 다양한 효소들이 분포한다는 것을 의미하기도 한다. 이러한 이유로 다양한 효소자원으로서 수산동물의 가공 부산물 또는 폐기물로부터 소화 관련 효소(digestive enzymes)의 회수와 산업적 이용의 잠재성은 매우 크다고 할 수 있다. 수산동물의 소화 관련 효소는 pepsin(Gildberg et al., 1990;1991), chymotrypsin, trypsin(Heu et al, 1995), gastricsin(Sanchea- Chiang and Ponce, 1981) 그리고 elastase(Bjarnason et al., 1993)을 상으로 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 특히 수산동물과 같이 저온에 적응한 냉혈동물의 단백질분해효소는 육상의 온혈동물의 동종 효소보다 낮은 최적온도와 온도안정성 때문에 식품산업에 응용성이 넓다고 하겠다. 따라서 우리나라의 다양한 수산자원의 폐기물 및 가공부산물로부터 소화 관련 효소를 분리하여 식품산업에 있어서 가공보조제(processing aids)로서 이용 가능하리라 생각된다.

Small ponds, which exhibit unstable succession pattern of plankton community, are less well studied than large lakes. Recently, the importance of small ponds for local biodiversity conservation has highlighted the necessity of understanding the dynamics of biological community. In the present study, we collected zooplankton from three small reservoirs with monthly basis and analyzed their seasonal dynamics. To understand the complicated zooplankton community dynamics of small reservoirs, we categorized zooplankton species into four groups (LALF Group, Low Abundance Low Frequency; LAHF Group, Low Abundance High Frequency; HALF Group, High Abundance Low Frequency; HAHF Group, High Abundance High Frequency) based on their occurrence pattern (abundance and frequency). We compared the seasonal pattern of each group, and estimated community diversity based on temporal beta diversity contribution of each group. The result revealed that there is a relationship between groups with the same abundance but different occurrence frequencies, and copepod nauplii are common important component for both abundance and frequency. On the other hand, species included with LALF Group throughout the study period are key in terms of monthly succession and diversity. LALF Group includes Anuraeopsis fissa, Hexarthra mira and Lecane luna. However, groups containing species that only occur at certain times of the year and dominate the waterbody, HALF Group, hindered to temporal diversity. The results of this study suggest that the species-specific occurrence pattern is one key trait of species determining its contribution to total annual biodiversity of given community.

The ichthyofauna and the structure of fish community were surveyed from August 1995 to October 1997 at twenty one stations in the Wicheon river which is a first tributary located at the middle reach of the Nakdong river system. During the surveyed period, 40 species belonging to ten families were collected. Of them cyprinid fish occupied 65.0% (26 species) and cobitid fish 12.5% (5 species). Sixteen species (40.0%) were known as Korean endemic species. Dominant species were Zacco temmincki (15.35%), Zacco platypus (14.12%), and Squalidus gracilis majimae (11.32%). Rare species which occupied less than 0.1% of total individuals were Cyprinus carpio, Culter brevicauda, Misgurnus mizoiepis, Cobitis rotundicaudata, Leiocassis ussuriensis, Silurus asotus, Macropodus chinensis, and Channa argus. A tendancy were shown in regional distribution that Moroco oxycephalus dominated in upper stream, Zacco temmincki, Squalidus gracilis majimae, and Niwaella multifasciata in mid - upper stream, acheilognathid fishes and Zacco temmincki in mid - lower stream, and Zacco platypus and microphysogobioid fishes in lower stream. St. 9, 10, and 11 which located in mid - reach of main stream and St. 17, 18 and 19 which located in mid - reach of the Ssanggye stream had the most stable and diverse community structure.
