This research was conducted to investigate the genetic diversity and select useful accession with agronomic characteristics of garlic (Allium sativum L.). germplasms at Garlic Research Institute in Chungbuk Agricultural Research and Extension Service. Morphological diversity and relationships among 160 germplasms collected from 26 countries were assessed by methods of clustering and principal component analysis. Among 11 types of leaves and bulbs characteristics, emergence days of leaf showed the highest variation with coefficient of variation of 84.8%, and the bulb weight and the number of scales showed higher variability with 24.3%. Correlation analysis based on 11 quantitative traits showed that bulb weight and bulb length have very high positive correlation with bulb quantity. Plant height, leaf length, and number of leaves showed positive correlation with bulb weight as collections with better performance in growth produced large bulb with higher quality. The cluster analysis based on 5 principal components generated 6 clusters with an average distance of 1.6 among clusters. Domestic genetic resources were the largest with 36 species (22.5%) in group II.

As fish communities are sensitive to natural environmental changes as well as anthropogenic pressures, their composition and characteristics help us to assess the aquatic ecosystem health. The fish fauna and the length-weight relationship of Zacco platypus in the Seomjin River system were investigated from July 2018 to May 2019. The collected species during the survey period were 49 species belong to 14 families including 19 Korean endemic and two endangered species. According to Bray-Curtis similarities, 14 sites were divided into four groups based on the fish community composition; two groups(group A, B) and two uncategorized sites(group C, D). There were significant differences between groups A and B(analysis of similarities, R=0.722, p=0.002). A similarity percentage analysis revealed that Z. koreanus(8.55%), Micropterus salmoides(6.90%), and Lepomis macrochirus (4.90%) contributed to these differences of fish assemblages between group A and B. Group A showed higher relative abundances of exotic species such as M. salmoides and L. macrochirus, while Z. platypus and Z. koreanus which are the common species in Korea, were the most dominant species in group B. Based on the length-weight relationship of Z. platypus, b values were varied from 2.82 to 3.80, indicating that growth patterns of the species were spatially different. This study could be served as baseline data for understanding fish fauna, assessing habitat characteristics based on the fauna, and identifying health conditions of Z. platypus in the Seomjin River system.

One hundred eleven glutinous rice collections from seven countries were evaluated for genetic diversity based on agronomic traits and RAPD analysis. Twelve agronomic traits including yield components amy-lose content, alkali digest value were used to clarify the genetic relationships among glutinous rice collections. Glutinous rice collections were classified into 4 groups and early maturings Korean landraces and high amylose indica belonged to group I with RAPD analysis, 15 primers selected for polymorphic bands generated 117 bands and 81 bands $(69.2\%)$ showed polymorphism. The number of amplified bands per primer ranged from 5 to 11, with the average number of bands of 7.8. With the similarity value of 0.78 in dendrogram derived from the cluster analysis based on RAPDs, glutinous rice collections were classified into 9 groups. Seventy-seven percent of the collections were classified into group I that is the largest one, while the others $(23\%)$ were distributed to group Il-IX. Group I included most indica type rices and early ripening collections, while the small groups of III-IX included most of the Korean collections.

A revised checklist of host plants for 181 species belonging to 103 genera in six subfamilies of Cerambycidae (Coleoptera: Chrysomeloidea) in Korea is provided on the basis of the results of field surveys and literature review. A total of 14 new cerambycid-host associations are confirmed and the Manchurian striped maple, Acer tegmentosum Maxim. (Aceraceae), is listed as a new host of the Asian longhorn beetle, Anoplophora glabripennis (Motschulsky). The names of more than 170 host plants species belonging to 107 genera in 44 families are compiled. Among them, four families (Ulmaceae, Pinaceae, Fagaceae and Betulaceae) are confirmed as the main host families (more than 23%) of most of the cerambycid species. All invalid scientific names and Korean names of plants and cerambycids in the previous literature are corrected in the present paper.

This study was carried out to obtain the basic information on mating parents and selection for high yielding safflower breeding. Thirty nine world safflower lines, which had collected from 13 countries of origjn, were evaluated for major agronomic characters, correlation and path-coefficients. The results obtained were summarized as follows. Days to flowers ranged from 83 days to 100 days. Days to flower of most foreign lines were later than that of domestic lines. Plant height ranged from 75 cm to 162 cm. The plant height and stem diameter of most foreign lines were higher than those of domestic lines. The leaf number and size of domestic lines were much more than those of foreign lines. The total branch numbers of foreign lines were more than domestic lines. Particularly, the number of third branch ranged from 0 to 25 and there were none in domestic lines. The number of corolla of foreign lines was much more than that of domestic lines. The yield of foreign lines collected from Central Asia and United States of America were more than any others. Significantly positive correlations were observed between yield and days to flower, stem diameter, the number of branch and the number of corolla. In the analysis of path-coefficient, the highest direct effects on yield was the number of corolla followed by the number of total branch, whereas those of the number of second branch and stem diameter were negative.

Comparative studies on the morphological characters of the circumorbital bone were made in order to investigate the phylogenetic relationships of the family Cyprinidae. In this paper, forty four species from Korea and three species of Gobiobotia and Saurogobio dabryi from China were studied. Pungtungia herzi, Pseudopungtungia nigra and Pseudopungtungia tenuicorpus were similar in morphological structure on points of the first infraorbital elongated. In Hemibarbus, the base portion of the opened sensor canal was transformed into a lateral plate in the infraorbital. Microphysogobio was characteristic in that the infraorbital series were large, and had close relationship with Pseudogobio esocinus and Saurogobio dabryi. Gobiobotia were reduced to a bony canal with dermal bone. Culter brevicauda had a short supraorbital. Cyprininae were characterized by larger fourth and fifth infraorbitals. Leuciscinae were divided into two groups: Moroco and Zacco. The former includes Phoxinus phoxinus, Moroco oxycephalus and Moroco kumgangensis, and the latter includes Zacco platypus, Zacco temmincki and Opsariichthys bidens. Moroco group was distinguished from Zacco group in points of having a short supraorbital and a elongated the first infraorbital.

Canonical correspondence analysis is an ordination method used to visualize the relationships among sites, species and environmental variables. However, projection results are fluctuations if the samples slightly change and consistent interpretation on ecological similarity among species tends to be difficult. We use the bootstrap methods for canonical correspondence analysis to solve this problem. The bootstrap method results show that the variations of coordinate points are inversely proportional to the number of observations and coverage rates with bootstrap confidence interval approximates to nominal probabilities.

Phylogenetic analysis of 31 species representing 12 genera in the family Strigidae (Aves: Strigiformes) including 5 species (Bubo bubo, Otus sunia, O. semitorques, Ninox scutulato, Strix aluco) collected from Korea has been undertaken using nucleotide sequences of the mitochondrial cytochrome b gene. Maximum likelihood analysis was performed and pairwise genetic distances were calculated with Kimura's two-parameter and p-distance. Among well-aligned 959 bp used for this study, 459 sites were variable and 398 sites were informative for the phylogenetic analysis. The family Strigidae was divided into three subgroups, Clade I (Aegolius), Clade II (Athene, Micrathene, Glaucidium and Surnia) and Clade III (Bubo, Nycteo, Pulsatrix, Strix, Otus, Ptilopsis, and Ninox). Also, two separated subgroups in the genus Otus were confirmed by the geographical distribution.

양성 종양(benign tumor)을 언급하기에 앞서 과오종(hamartoma) 및 과다 형성(hyperplasia)과의 차이를 구분할 필요가 있다. 양성 종양은 기원조직과 유사한 조직이 이상 증식하는 것으로 서서히 성장하지만 일반적으로 치료하기 전까지 이상 증식을 지속하는 진성 신생물을 일컫는다. 이에 비해 과오종은 정상 조직이 무질서하게 과증식하는 것으로 일정기간 후에는 성장을 멈추기 때문에 진성 신생물로 간주하지 않는다. 그러나 일부 과오종이 양성 종양에 포함되기도 하는데, 예를 들어 치아종은 정상적인 치성 조직의 성장이 완료되는 시기와 거의 동일한 시기에 성장을 멈추지만 양성 종양으로 분류된다. 과다 형성은 조직의 세포가 정상적인 배열 양상을 보이면서 세포의 수가 증가하는 것으로 지속적인 성장 양상을 보이지만 그 성장이 제한적이므로 양성 종양과는 구별된다. 양성 종양은 일반적으로 무통성으로 서서히 성장하기 때문에 종양의 크기가 증가하여 안면 종창이나 동통 등을 유발하는 경우에 발견될 수 있으며, 방사선검사에서 우연히 발견되기도 한다. 방사선검사는 병소의 위치, 범위, 특징 및 병소와 인접 해부학적 구조와의 관계 등 많은 방사선학적 진단 정보를 제공한다. 일부 종양은 방사선사진에서 매우 특징적인 소견을 나타내기 때문에 방사선학적 소견으로 예비 진단을 할 수 있을 정도의 진단정보를 제공하기도 하는 반면 어떤 종양들은 방사선사진에서 관찰되는 소견이 매우 유사하여 진단에 어려움을 주기도 한다. 따라서 종양의 확진을 위해서는 생검이 필수적이며, 방사선검사는 반드시 생검에 앞서 진행되어야만 정확한 방사선학적 진단을 할 수 있다. 양성 종양은 각각의 특징적인 방사선학적인 소견을 나타내지만 일반적으로 관찰되는 양성 종양의 특징이 존재하므로 이러한 일반적인 특징을 관찰하여 병소가 양성인지 악성인지를 감별할 수 있다. 첫째, 양성 종양은 대개 호발하는 부위가 있으므로 종양의 발생부위는 감별 진단을 하는 데 매우 중요하다. 일반적으로 치성 병소는 치아가 형성되는 하악관 상방의 치조돌기에서, 혈관성 및 신경성 병소는 하악관 내에서, 연골성 종양은 하악과두와 같이 연골세포가 잔존되어 있는 부위에서 발생하는 경우가 많다. 둘째, 양성 종양은 대체로 명확한 경계와 피질골성 변연을 보이며, 종종 병소가 결체조직으로 둘러싸여 있어 병소 주위에 방사선투과성 띠가 관찰되기도 한다. 셋째, 양성 종양은 일반적으로 인접 주위 조직에 압력을 가하면서 서서히 성장하기 때문에 인접 치아의 변위 또는 흡수, 피질골의 비박, 팽융 등의 소견을 보이며 피질골의 천공은 드물다. 방사선학적으로 양성 종양의 병소 내부는 방사선투과상으로 관찰되거나, 방사선불투과상으로 관찰되거나, 방사선투과상과 방사선불투과상이 혼재된 상으로 관찰된다. 저자는 이 지면에서 이러한 방사선학적 특징을 기초로 하여 구강악안면영역에 발생하는 양성 종양을 분류하고 각각의 특징에 대해 살펴보고자 한다.
