Avery, MacLeod, McCarty가 1944년에 세균에서 유전적 재조합이 이루어진다는 사실을 발견한 후 세균은 진화 학자들과 미생물 학자들로 부터 주목을 받기 시작했다. 왜냐하면 세균은 자연생태계에서 또다른 형태의 유전적 적응성을 지니고 그러한 돌영변이 중 일부는 모세포(parent cell)보다도 주변환경에 더 잘 적응되었기 때문이다. 이제까지 GEM들이 생태계에서 유전자들 전이시키는 빈도가 대부분 낮았고, 토양이나 다른 자연생태계애서 유전자의 전이가 지속적으로 일어난다는 실험적 증거는 없었지만 이들을 생태계에 방출한 결과 유전자 전이가 몇몇 실험에서 확인된 적이 있어 토양에서의 유전적 전이의 가능성을 강하게 암시하고 있다. 하지만 어떻게 전이되고 토양의 물리, 화학및 전이에 필요한 최소한의 donor와 recipient의 수와 정확한 감지 방법등이 아직까지 밝혀져 있지 않은 상태이다. 더우기 토양환경에서 미생물의 활성과 생태, 군집 동태에 영향을 줄 수 있는 기능을 나타내려면 얼마만큼의 재조합 세균이 단위면적당 필요한지도 밝혀지지 않은 상태이다. 따라서 이러한 여러가지 문제점을 밝히는 것은 학문적인면 뿐만 아니라 진화론적인 이론에도 도움이 되며 GEM들이 토양이나 다른 생태계에 유출되었을 때의 환경영향평가나 규제를 하는데에도 도움이 될 수 있다고 본다.

A laboratory experiment was conducted to find out the number of soil microorganisms, identification and enumeration of soil microbial species on the mineral and volcanic ash soil with different cropping system of the Jeju Island. The results obtained were summarized as follows: 1. The number of bacteria was high in mineral soil with rotation of upland crops than that of volcanic ash soil with continuous cropping system. 2. According to identification of soil bacteria, the most of bacteria were composed to short rod with Gram negative. Among the bacteria species, Rhizobium spp. and Flavobacterium spp. were most high population in both of mineral and volcanic ash soil. 3. The number of fungi in mineral soils were reduced by the rotated cultivation of upland crops but no significant differences were observed in volcanic ash soil with continuous cropping system. On the other hand, Aspergillus spp., Fusarium spp., and Penicillium spp. were most high population in both of mineral and volcanic ash soil. 4. Comparing of the number and species ot microorganism to the cash crops soil in main land, about 10 to 100 times for bacteria and more than two times for the number and species of fungi were lowered in Jeju Island soil.

BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to investigate the soil chemical properties and soil bacterial community of the cropping system for Cnidium officinale Makino. METHODS AND RESULTS: The bacterial community was analyzed for the relative abundance and principal coordinated analysis (PCoA analysis) by using by Illumina Miseq sequencing. The correlation analysis between soil chemical properties and soil bacterial community were analyzed by Spearman's rank correlation and DISTLM analysis. Soil bacterial community (phylum and class) showed two distinct clusters consisting of cluster 1 (first cropping) and cluster 2 (continuous cropping) from 2 different cultivation methods of Cnidium officinale Makino. PCoA and DISTLM analyses showed that soil pH and Ca significantly affected soil bacterial community in cultivation area of Cnidium officinale Makino. In addition, Spearman's rank correlation showed significant correlation between relative abundance (Acidobacteria and Actinobacteria) and soil factors (soil pH and Ca). CONCLUSION: The results of this study were considered to be important for determining the correlation between soil properties and soil bacterial community of the cropping method for Cnidium officinale Makino. Furthermore, the results will be helpful to investigate the cause of continuous cropping injury of the Cnidium officinale Makino by examining the changes of soil properties and soil bacterial communities.

Diversity of myxobacteria in five soil samples from Asansi and Uponeup in Korea was explored by means of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using primers that specifically bind 16S rDNA of myxobacteria. DNA sequence analysis of 76 PCR fragments containing myxobacterial 16S rDNA revealed five putative novel myxobacterial genera whose 16S rDNA sequences shared <95% sequence identity with those of the type strains. This finding indicates the presence of many uncultured and unidentified myxobacterial species in Korean soil.

A phylogenetic analysis of bacterial populations inhabiting soil derived from serpentine was conducted. The samples were collected from adjacent metamorphic rocks and serpentinite soil at Kwangcheon. The pH of the serpentine areas ranged from 8.5 to 9.2. The number of bacteria on the DAL medium which was diluted with $10^{-2}$ of AL medium was 10~100 fold higher than that from the full strength of AL medium, and which indicates that oligotrophs are distributed in the serpentinite soil. Of a total of 76 isolates, 42 isolates were oligotrophic bacteria, which grew only on the DAL medium. Based on a phylogenetic analysis using 16S rDNA sequences, these isolates are found to fall within five major phylogenetic groups: proteobacteria $\alpha$-subdivision (3 strains), $\alpha$-subdivision (7 strains), $\gamma$-subdivision (2 trains); high G+C gram-positive bacteria (19 strains); low G+C grampositive bacteria (14 strains). Bacteria of the genus Streptomyces (high G+C division) and Bacillus (low G+C division) have been considered to form a numerically important fraction of serpentinite soil. Oligotrophic strains categorized as Afipia ($\alpha$-subdivision), Ralstonia, Variovorax ($\beta$-subdivision), Pseudomonas ($\gamma$ -subdivision), Arthrobacter (high G+C division), and Streptomyces (low G+C division).

In this study, we investigated the bacterial community structure in organic rice-fish mixed farming paddy soil by using high-throughput sequencing technology. The results showed that compared with the organic rice cultivated soil, the content of AP (available phosphorus) increased by 310.23 % and the content of OM (organic matter) increased by 168.83%. The most abundant phyla in paddy soils were Proteobacteria, Bacteriodetes, and Chloroflexi, whose relative abundance was above 47.83%. Among the dominant genera, the relative abundance of Limisphaera in paddy soils was observed. Alpha diversity indicated that the bacterial diversity of paddy soils was similar among each other. The bacterial community structure was affected by the relative abundance of bacteria, not the species of bacteria. Principal Coordinated Analysis (PCoA) results showed that the bacterial communities in organic rice-fish mixed farming soil and organic paddy soil were correlated to each other; the bacterial community structure was distinctively grouped by four different systems (paddy soil under organic rice-fish mixed farming system, organic rice cultivation, and conventional rice cultivation), where the first two are closely related to each other than the third one. The results provide basal support for organic agri-cultivation while improving an ecological value at the same time.

The present study was aimed to evaluate the soil microbial communities by fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) method in paddy soils at 20 sites in Gyeongnam Province. The soil microbial biomass carbon content of fan and valley $1,266mg\;kg^{-1}$ was higher than alluvial plain $578mg\;kg^{-1}$ (p<0.05). In addition, The dehydrogenase activity of fan and valley $204{\mu}g\;TPF\;g^{-1}\;24h^{-1}$ was higher than alluvial plain $93{\mu}g\;TPF\;g^{-1}\;24h^{-1}$ (p<0.05). The communities of total bacteria and Gram-negative bacteria in the fan and valley paddy soils were significantly higher than those in the alluvial plain paddy soils (p<0.05). Total bacteria communities should be considered as a potential responsible factor for the obvious microbial community differentiation that was observed between the fan and valley and alluvial plain in paddy soils.

A culture-dependent survey of bacterial community in the soil-root system of red pepper and tomato was conducted by dilution plate count method. The bacterial community within soil was not different from that of rhizoplane. However, the populations of fluorescent, pseudomonads were higher in rhizoplanes than in soils and higher in healthy rhizoplanes than in Phytophthora disease-infested rhizoplanes. The bacterial community of the pepper cropped soil and rhizoplanes was very similar to that of the tomato-cropped soil and rhizoplanes. Among 285 identified bacterial colonies, most colonies were belong to two groups by fatty acid analyses: 52% of the 285 colonies were belong to low G + C gram positive bacteria group. Bacillus spp. and 33% were belong to high G + C gram positive bacteria group. In order to use beneficial microorganisms to agro-ecosystem, these data of field trials should be intensively accumulated.

Soil management for orchard depends on the effects of soil microbial activities. The present study evaluated the soil microbial community of 25 orchard in Gyeongnam Province by fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) method. The average concentrations in the orchard soils were $332nmol\;g^{-1}$ of total FAMEs, $94nmol\;g^{-1}$ of bacteria, $46nmol\;g^{-1}$ of Gram-negative bacteria, $42nmol\;g^{-1}$ of Gram-positive bacteria, $4.8nmol\;g^{-1}$ of actinomycetes, $54nmol\;g^{-1}$ of fungi, and $9.1nmol\;g^{-1}$ of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. In addition, sandy loam soils had significantly low ratio of cy19:0 to 18:$1{\omega}7c$ compared with that of loam soils (p<0.05), indicating that microbial stress decreased. The average soil microbial communities in the orchard soils were 28.1% of bacteria, 15.9% of fungi, 13.6% of Gram-negative bacteria, 12.5% of Gram-positive bacteria, 2.8% of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, and 1.4% of actinomycetes. The soil microbial community of Gram-negative bacteria in peach cultivating soils was significantly higher than that of pear cultivating soils (p<0.05).

We have examined the correlation between the physicochemical and microbiological environment variables for the different layers of oak forest soil in Mt. Gyeryong, Korea. The result shows that there is a high correlation in the environment variables between the soil parameters of the fermented (F) layer and humus (H) layer. In particular, the pH level in the F layer shows a high correlation with C and N, while the various organic acids of the H layer turns out to be closely correlated with soil bacteria density. As we evaluated phylogenetic characteristics of bacterial populations by DGGE analysis with DNA extracted. Total of 175 bands including 43 bands from litter (L) layer, 42 bands from F layer, 43 bands from H layer and 47 bands from rhizosphere (A) layer were selected as the major DGGE band of oak forest soil. Based on the 16S rRNA gene sequences, 175 DGGE bands were classified into 32 orders in 7 phylum. The heat map was analyzed in order to compare the quantity of the base sequences of each order and based on the clustering of the different layers of oak forest soil, the result confirms that the F layer and H layer belong to a different cluster from that of L layer and A layer. Furthermore, it also showed that approximately 50% of the total microbial population in different layers is ${\alpha}$-proteobacteria, which indicates that they belong to the dominant system group. In particular, Rhizobiales, Burkholderiales and Actinobacteriales were observed in all the seasons and layers of oak forest soil, which confirms that they are the indigenous soil bacterial community in oak forest soil.
