Deutzia paniculata is an endemic species, which is geographically restricted within southern part of Korea. Four populations of D. paniculata were sampled across its natural range, from the smallest population, Mt. Dalum, which held less than 100 individuals, to the largest, Mt. Unmum, over 3,500 individuals. Artificial pollination study showed that D. paniculata had an obligate outcross breeding system. Major pollinators were two bee species, Lasioglossum exiliceps and Allograpta balteata (de Geer). The breeding system and patterns of allozyme variation of D. paniculata were investigated to understand the population biology and to explain on reserve designs and management proposals relevant to this species. D. paniculata held relatively low genetic variation at the eight allozyme loci surveyed. Measures of genetic variation in this species alleles per locus ($A_s=1.33$), proportion of polymorphic loci (P=23.85%), and expected heterozygosity ($H_{es}=0.110$) were similar to values reported for endemic species. Mt. Dalum population (DAL) was composed with one clone based on allozyme data. Individuals of D. paniculata were frequently included in root connected clusters. Population genetic structure between and within four populations was probably the result of shrinking effective population size and the extinctions of intervening populations. For the conservation of genetic diversity, maximum number of different genotype need to be protected based on genetic structure and mating system.

Mating system parameters were estimated in a natural population of Pinus koraiensis which was located at Gwongeumseong in Mt. Seorak, South Korea. The estimated parameters from allozyme were as follows: 0.882 of multilocus outcrossing rates($t_m$), 0.881 of singlelocus outcrossing rates($t_s$), 0.368 of correlated paternity($r_p$), and 2.7 of number of effective pollen contributors. The estimated parameters from cpSSR markers were as follows: 0.831 of average of outcrossing rates and 12.4 of the average number of effective pollen contributors. The average outcrossing rate from two genetic markers was 0.857, which was similar to those estimated in other conifer species. More number of potential pollen contributors was estimated from cpSSR marker analysis compared with that estimated from allozyme marker analysis. This result sugges$t_s$ that cpSSR markers may be more useful than allozyme markers for identifying potential pollen contributors in the analysis of mating system.

Allele frequencies in twenty-two populations from nine Korean muricid species of five genera (Rapaninae and Ocenebrinae) wire analyzed genetically using 13 loci from 11 allozyme systems. The clustering patterns of these species were basically consistent with traditional groupings to two subfamilial categories based on shell and radula morphologies. Within six ocenebrine species it was apparent that Ceratostoma inornata and Pteropurpura adunca were most closely related to each other than to any other species belonging to the genus Ceratostoma. These results, along with other anatomical features 〔morphologies of albumin gland (female), egg capsule〕, suggest that the generic position of C. inornata, previously classified to be congeneric with other western Pacific Ceratostoma species, should be reconsidered. Our results show the close relationship of Nucella freycineti with other ocenebrine species, rather than with rapanines, which supports a previous suggestion that the genus Nucella should be placed with the subfamily Ocenebrinae rather than the subfamily Rapaninae.

This study deals with the characterization of three populations (two hatchery and one natural) of Indian major carps Catla catla and Labeo rohita from different locations in India. The genetics of Indian major carps has been completely obscure and this is the first report on comparative allozyme variations in natural and hatchery population. The total 10 biochemical genetic markers used to measure interspecific and intraspecific level of diversity. The allele frequency data indicate different level of genetic variability in three populations. The hatchery population exhibited least polymorphism, low level of heterozygosity and genetic diversity.

The electrophoretic banding patterns of 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (PGD) in the two different chromosomal ploidy groups of Gyraulus were compared. The monomeric or dimeric banding patterns or allelic variations in a locus of PGD were observed in four diploid populations (Osan, Sohre, Kimpo and Kangwha) of G. convexiusculus occurring in Korea, whereas the isozyme banding patterns encoded by at least 3 different loci were shown in the tetraploid populations of G. (Torquis) groups collected from Michigan, the U.S.A. Of 3 different tetraploid groups, G. (T.) circumstriatus group showed 3 monomorphic isozyme banding patterns, and the other 2 populations showed some allelic variations. Such results provided good evidence to differentiate tetraploid subgenus Torquis group from the diploid Gyraulus populations.

A horizontal starch gel electrophoresis for enzyme proteins extracted from three Korean species and one Chinese species of Semisulcospira was carried out in order to elucidate their genetic relationships. A total of 10 enzymes were employed in three different of buffer systems. Two loci from each enzyme of GAPDH, GOT, ICDH, IDH and PEP(VL); three loci from each of three enzymes, EST, PEP(LGG) and PGDH; and five loci from GPI were observed. Most of the loci in three pleurocerid species employed showed homozygous monomorphic banding patterns and some of them were specific as genetic markers between two different species. However, EST-2, PEP(LGG-3) and PGDH-1 loci in Korean S. libertina and PEP(LGG-3), PGM-1 and PGM-2 loci in Chinese S. libertina showed polymorphic banding patterns. Three Korean Semisulcospira species including S. libertina were more closely clustered in a dendrogram within the range of genetic identity values of 0.818-0.936, and these clusters were lineated with Chinese S. libertina at the value of 0.621.
