  • The nutritive value of 4 straws, obtained after thrashing of seeds from fodder crops, was assessed as complete feed for ruminants. Sixteen male Murrah buffaloes (liveweight 365.8${\pm}$19.5 kg), were divided into 4 equal groups and offered ad lib. straw of either Trifolium resupinatum, Trifolium alexandrium, Medicago sativa or Lolium perenne, supplemented with minerals and vitamin A, for 40 days in a completely randomized design. Simultaneously, each straw was offered to 3 rumen fistulated male buffaloes in order to assess the biochemical changes in the rumen. Compared to other straws M. sativa straw had higher (p<0.05) organic matter (OM), crude protein (CP), acid-detergent fiber (ADF) and cellulose content. L .perenne had the highest (p<0.05) hemicellulose and lowest (p<0.05) CP and acid-detergent lignin (ADL) content. T. resupinatum had the lowest concentration of cell wall constituents (CWC). The digestibility of nutrients of T. resupinatum and L. perenne straw was similar, but higher (p<0.05) than that of other straws. M.sativa straw showed highest (p<0.05) digestibility of CP. The highest OM digestibility of T. resupinatum and CP digestibility of M. sativa were responsible for highest (p<0.05) total volatile fatty acids and trichloroacetic acid precipitable nitrogen in the strained rumen liquor. The digestible crude protein (DCP) was highest (p<0.05) in M. sativa followed by that in T. alexandrium. The total purine derivatives excreted in urine varied from 0.22-0.32 mmol/kg $W^{.75}/d$. The efficiency of microbial protein synthesis indicated that OM of straws of M. sativa and that of T. alexandrium was used more (p<0.05) efficiently. The microbial protein synthesized was highest in T. resupinatum, but statistically similar to other groups. The values for N-retention and apparent biological value were highest for L. perenne, though comparable with that of M. sativa and T. alexandrium. The available metabolizable energy (ME) was highest (p<0.05) in T. resupinatum followed by that in L. perenne and lowest in M. sativa. It was concluded that all the straws, supplemented with minerals and vitamin A, could be fed exclusively to adult ruminants with no adverse affect, as animals were able to maintain body weight (372${\pm}$20.1 kg).

  • 와편모조류 Alexandrium affine의 생장에 대한 수온, 염분 및 광 조건 실내실험을 통해서 살펴보았다. A. affine의 최대성장속도($0.69day^{-1}$)는 수온 $25^{\circ}C$, 염분 25 psu로 나타났으며, 최적생장(최대성장속도의 80 %)은 수온 $20{\sim}25^{\circ}C$의 염분은 20 ~ 35 psu로 나타났다. 따라서 A. affine는 비교적 협온성이며, 광염성의 생리학적 특성을 가지고 있는 것으로 생각된다. 광량에 따른 생장 실험결과에서 유도된 생장식은 ${\mu}=0.75(I-4.25)/(I+65.47)$로, 보상광량($I_c$)은 $4.25{\mu}mol\;m^{-2}s^{-1}$, 반포화광량($K_I$)은 $57.0{\mu}mol\;m^{-2}s^{-1}$로 나타났다. 결론적으로 A. affine는 하계에 낮은 광, 염분의 변동 폭이 큰 연안해역에서도 우점화 할 수 있는 유리한 생리적 특성을 보이는 것으로 판단된다.

  • 본 연구는 유독 와편모조류 Alexandrium pacificum의 조기 감지 여부를 조사하기 위해 홀 소자 센서(Hall element sensor)를 활용하여 진주담치(Mytilus edulis)와 참굴(Crassostrea gigas)의 패각운동(shell valve movements, SVMs) 변화를 살펴보았다. 무독성 조류 Isochrysis galbana에 대한 SVMs는 M. edulis와 C. gigas에서 모두 증감이 관찰되지 않았다. 하지만 마비성 패독(paralytic shellfish poisoning, PSP)을 유발하는 A. pacificum에 노출됨에 따라 M. edulis와 C. gigas는 폭로 전후로 약 12시간 동안 평균 SVMs가 각각 1.25 times/hr에서 2.13 times/hr 그리고 2.23 times/hr에서 8.91 times/hr로 증가하였다. M. edulis는 A. pacificum에 노출되고 1시간 이내에 SVMs가 증가한 뒤 점차 감소한 추세를 보였지만, C. gigas는 노출 후 4시간까지도 높은 SVMs를 보여, C. gigas가 M. edulis보다 유독 와편모조류에 대한 민감성이 높은 것으로 보였다. 따라서 이러한 결과들은 유독 와편모조류 A. pacificum의 출현 시 조기 감지를 할 수 있는 생물모니터링 시스템 체계 구축에 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

  • 배양실험을 바탕으로 다양한 수온과 염분 조건에서 유독 와편모조류 Alexandrium pacificum (LIMS-PS-2611)의 생장속도와 마비성 패독(PST)의 변화를 조사하였다. A. pacificum는 수온 25℃, 염분 30 psu 조건에서 최대생장속도를 보였으며, 최대생장속도의 70% 이상은 수온 20~25℃, 염분 25~35 psu 구간에서 나타났다. A. pacificum 체내의 PST 주요성분은 N-sulfocarbamoyl계의 C1+2와 GTX5이었으며, 미량성분은 carbamate계의 neoSTX이었다. 수온과 염분에 따른 독함량의 변화를 보면, A. pacificum는 수온 20℃, 염분 30 psu의 조건에서는 비교적 낮은 독 함량을 보였다. 염분의 증가에 따라 독 함량이 증가하는 경향을 나타냈다. 그러나 최대생장속도를 보였던 수온과 염분 조건에서는 낮은 독 함량을 보였다. 따라서 6월 수온이 20-25℃ 범위일 때 발생하는 이매패류 독화현상은 A. pacificum에 의한 영향일 가능성이 있다.

  • DNA sequence-based typing is considered a robust tool for the discrimination of dinoflagellate species because of the availability of extensive rDNA sequences. Here, we present a rapid, cost-effective DNA-sequencing technique for various PCR products. This sequencing strategy relies on 'nested' or 'tailed' primer labeled with near-infrared dye, and uses a minimal volume of unpurified PCR product (ca. $5{\mu}L$) as the DNA template for sequencing reactions. Reliable and accurate base identification was obtained for several hundred PCR fragments of rRNA genes. This quick, inexpensive technique is widely applicable to sequence-based typing in clinical applications, as well as to large-scale DNA sequencing of the same genomic regions from related species for studies of molecular evolution.

  • Thirty-six dinoflagellate cysts, representing 15 genera were identified in the surface sediments obtained from the northwestern East China Sea. Three cyst morphotypes found in this survey have not previously been described in the East China Sea and adjacent waters: Seleno­pemphix sp. 2, Selenopemphix sp. 3 and Trinovantedinium sp. 1. In the northwestern East China Sea, Operculodinium centrocarpum, Spiniferites bulloideus and ellipsoidal cysts of Alexandrium were commonly observed. Moreover, it was recognized that the ellipsoidal cysts of Alexandrium, whose motile cells of A tamarense and/or A catenella are responsible to paralytic shellfish poisoning, distributed not only restricted to the coastal areas but also to the offshore stations far from the Changjiang River mouth.

  • The sequences coding for the 5.8S rDNA and the internal transcribed spacers (ITS1 and ITS 2) from the isolates of nine isolates of Gyrodinium impudicum and two isolates of Gymnodinium sanguineum species were amplified, sequenced and compared with the previously known Alexandrium species and Gymnodinium catenatum. The genetic distance analyses based on the sequence alignment indicated that Gymnodinium catenatum and Gyrodinium impudicum species were some related, Alexandrium species was distant. G. catenatum and G. sanguineum were quite separate, but these two species belonged to the same genus. G. impudicum and G. catenatum forming the closet cluster showed some variation in the alignment of ITS regions. The length of ITS1 varied more than that of ITS2 and the length of ITS1 and ITS2 was different for each G. impudicum, Gymnodinium and Alexandrium species. Also, the length of ITS1 was shorter than that of ITS2. However, on the sequences of G. sanguineum, the length of ITS1 was longer about 23 nucleotides than that of ITS2. The phylogenetic analysis and rDNA similarity of G. impudicum and G. catenatum $(59\%)$ is higher than the that of G. catenatum and G. sanguineum $(55\%)$. It was thought that the phylogenetic analysis and the genetic distance revealed that G. impudicum and G. catenatum were clearly different species and G. impudicum may belong to the genus of Gymnodinium.

  • A. tamarense로부터 ESTs library를 제작하였다. 이들의 염기서열을 분석하여 STX 생합성 관련 유전자를 클로닝하였다. 연구결과 827 클론의 염기서열이 분석되었고, 564개의 EST가 GenBank에서의 Blast search를 사용하여 기능에 따라 분류되었다. EST에서의 주요 유전자는 cellular organization, cell metabolism, energy, cell cycle과 DNA processing, cellular transport와 transport, cell rescue, defense, death와 aging 및 transcription 등으로 분석되었다. 특히 S-adenosylmethionine synthetase와 H2A histone family 유전자의 발현이 독성 A. tamarense에서 증가하였다. 이러한 결과는 두 개의 유전자가 A. tamarense에서의 삭시톡신 생합성을 검출하기 위한 좋은 바이오마커가 될 수 있음을 보여준다.

  • Photosynthetic dinoflagellates contain a water-soluble, light-harvesting antenna called the peridinin-chlorophyll-protein (PCP) complex, which has an apoprotein with no sequence similarity to other known proteins. There are two forms of PCP apoproteins; the 15-kDa short form and the 32- to 35­kDa long form. The present study describes the PCP protein and its cDNA from Alexandrium tamarense. A cDNA library was constructed from mRNA isolated from A. tamarense. The complete PCP cDNA was generated by reverse-transcription coupled to polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), together with rapid-amplification of cDNA ends (RACE). The A. tamarense PCP cDNA encoded a 55-amino acid signal peptide and a 313-amino acid mature protein with a calculated mass of 32 kDa, which corresponded to that of the long form of PCP. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that the sequence of A. tamarense PCP did not cluster with the short-form PCPs, to which it was only about $55\%$ identical, but which were $79-83\%$ identical to other long-form PCPs. The deduced amino acid sequence of A. tamarense PCP contains an internal duplication, which suggests the possibility that long-form PCPs arose by gene duplication or by the fusion of genes encoding the short form. The abundance of PCP mRNA changed substantially in response to different light conditions, indicating the possible existence of a photo-acclimation response in A. tamarense.
