NF733xin, the near allele line was obtained by means of crossing and backcrossing the silkworm race T6, which contained fluoride resistance major gene, to race 733xin, which was highly susceptible to fluoride toxicity. Two hundred RAPD random primers were used in the RAPD analysis of these 3 strains. Two molecular markers, OPB-08850 and OPB-10917, were obtained. OPB-10917 was used to detect the backcross generations. It was found that all the fluoride resistant individuals in each backcross generation had the same special band. These results proved that this marker was reliable.

Sinca early 1930' Colitis taenia striate were introduced to the Donsgjin in Chollabukdo, where it hybridized with an endemic subspecies C. tiutheri. Protein electrophoresis revealed high levels of hybridization with intensive backcrossing occupied approximately 20 kilometers of the river. This is roughly one-half of tech historic range of the endemic species. The average frequency of introduced alleles of three diagnostic loci ranged 0.03-0.46 among 11 sites in tech svrnpatric area. Clinal patterns in allele frequencies suggest C. tiutheri were introduced in an upper reaches of the Dongjin and downstream dispersal of the introduced alleles followed. There is little linkasedisequilibrium between the diagnostic loci, suggesting the nuclear genomes of tech two subspecies are randomly associated. The evidence presented here and previously supports recognition of C. t. striata and C. t. lutheri as the typical subspecies.

The purpose of this study was to breed a variety of stable productivity and high storage characteristics of white Hypsizygus marmoreus, which has high demand at domestic and global market due to a low bitter taste and the preference for white species. Accordingly, 'Baekmaru' was bred by hybridizing brown and white cap color species and backcrossing with white species. The 'Baekmaru' variety was bred by crossbreeding the brown and white species and backcrossing the white species. Through repeated cultivation of 'Baekmaru', a variety with a low contamination rate was selected when culturing the spawn for stable cultivation. As a results of demonstration test, the yield of 'Baekmaru' was 14% higher than that of the commercial variety. In addition, among the fruiting body characteristics of 'Baekmaru', diameter and thickness of the pileus were 16.43±15.27mm and 6.46±0.58mm, which were slightly higher than the commercial variety, and the hardness was 2.69±0.89N for the pileus and 3.09±0.89N for the stipe. The shelf life showed less change in thickness and color of pileus compared to commercial variety. The hardness of pileus of 'Baekmaru' was maintained in the range of 3.5 to 4.0N in the 4℃ and 4℃ and 20℃ mixed treatment until 30 days of storage, and was higher than that of the commercial variety. Therefore, it was suggested to be excellent in storability.

Breeding programme was initiated during November, 1995 with the main objective to breed productive multivoltine breeds/ hybrids with suitable genetic constitution to suit the fluctuating tropical climate prevailed in India. Two multivoltine breeds viz., BL-24 and BL-27 selected were as breeding resource materials from the silkworm germplasm maintained at Central Sericul-tural Research and Training Institute, Mysore. By adopting hybridization, backcrossing inbreeding and selection, a new multivoltine breed namely BL-67. This breed spins light greenish yellow cocoons and cocoon shape is oval with medium to coarse grains. The evolved breed was crossed with five tropical bivoltine breeds viz., NB4D2, CSR2, CSR5, CSR18 and CSR101 to study the combining ability, and identified a superior hybrid, BL67 ${\times}$ CSR101, named as CAUVERY, The hybrid is characterized by high pupation rate (>95%), high shell weight (> 35 cg), high cocoon shell ratio (> 20%), longer filament length (> 900 m) and high neatness (93) with a renditta of 6.5 producing 2A-3A grade silk. The hybrid is selected for Race Autho-rization test of Central Silk Board.

A population segregating for the naked neck (Na) gene was used to evaluate its effect on fast growing broilers at heat stress. An experimental stock comparable to those of modern broilers was established by backcrossing to colour synthetic male and female lines. Matings between heterozygous (Na/na) males and females produced normally feathered (na/na), heterozygous (Na/na) and homozygous (Na/Na) chicks for the present study. Day old to seven week old coloured broilers of three genotypes viz. normally feathered (na/na), heterozygous naked neck (Na/na) and homozygous naked neck (Na/Na) were compared for heat dissipation, growth performance, body conformation traits, blood biochemical parameters and carcass traits in tropical climate. In hot climate, naked neck broilers had significantly less body temperature and better heat dissipation capabilities as compared to normal broilers. The naked neck broilers had significantly higher body weight and better feed conversion ratio than na/na broilers. The Na/Na or Na/na broilers exhibited higher giblet yield, blood loss and lower feather mass compared to na/na broilers. The results indicated that the reduction in feather coverage in Na/Na and Na/na broilers facilitates better heat dissipation with lower body temperature, more body weight gain, better FCR and carcass traits compared to normal broilers.

This paper deals with cytogenetical and cytochemical studies of the carp (Cyprinus carpio), the funa (Carassius carassius) and their hybrids. When kept under a confined condition, the carp and the funa mate andcan produce hybrids. Reciprocal crosses are also possible with similar results. The hybrids grow regularly with no observed abnormalities in the course of their development. They rank intermediate between the parent species in several characters. The hybrid males are completely sterile, while a hybrid female laid eggs in backcrossing. The spermatogenetic activity in hybrid testes is greatly disturbed. The chromosomes as observed in spermatogonial devision of hybrids are 100 in number, being the total sum of the haploid numbers of the parents, 50 for the carp and 50 for the funa. Meiosis in the hybrid testes is highly disturbed being arrested at early stages of the meiotic prophase. Most of the germ-cells undergo pycnotic degeneration during the period from late leptotene, and no spermatozoa are produced. In some hybrid specimens, the gonads show mosaic structures composed of testicular and ovarian elements, anevidence suggesting that sterility is associated with intersexuality caused by genetic unbalance between the parent species. The DNA amount in spermatogonial nuclei of thehybrids is approximately the same as that of liver nuclei, showing the 2n value. The DNA amount in the pachytene nuclei of the hybrids is less than the 4n value, while the parent species have the reduced amount of DNA in their pachytene nuclei. A consideration was made that the reduced amount of DNA in the hybrid cells may cause the disturbance of cellular activity leading to the subsequent degeneration of cells. Some aspects of enzymatic pattern in the carp, funa and their hybrids are. going on.

Clubroot disease is the major threat to the production of Chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa L.) in Japan. Although the breeding of the clubtoot resistant (CR) cultivars is one of the most efficient ways to control this disease, the CR cultivars do not always have effects due to the breakdown of resistance. Therefore, it is necessary to develop the breeding strategy to accumulate multiple CR genes in a single cultivar effectively. We have identified two incomplete dominant CR loci, Crr1 and Crr2, which are originated from the European CR turnip Siloga. To investigate the effectiveness of marker-assisted selection (MAS) for CR breeding, the inbred line with Crr1 and Crr2 was crossed with parental lines of the existing CR $F_1$ cultivar of Chinese cabbage, followed by 5 times of MAS and backcrossing. The $F_1$ derived from a cross between the resulting parental lines improved the clubroot resistance as expected and had the same morphological characters as the original $F_1$ cultivar. We have shown that the Crr1 locus comprised two loci: Crr1a, which by itself conferred resistance to the mild isolate; and Crr1b, which had a minor effect, but was not required for Crr1a-mediated resistance. Further genetic analysis suggested that Crr1b was necessary to acquire resistance to the more virulent isolate in combination with Crr2. Molecular characterization of Crr1a encoding TIR-NB-LRR class of R protein revealed that there were at least 4 alleles in Japanese CR cultivars of Chinese cabbage. PCR analysis with Crr1a-specific markers demonstrated that the functional alleles were predicted to be present in European CR turnips, Debra and 77b besides Siloga, whereas rarely in Japanese CR cultivars, indicating that Crr1a is an useful source to improve the resistance of Chinese cabbage cultivars.

A breeding programme was initiated during 2001 to introduce sex-limited larval markings to a productive multivoltine breed - BL67 from an inbred sex-limited line, MY1 (SL) maintained at Central Sericultural Research and Training Institute, Mysore. Introgressive hybridization, recurrent backcrossing for six generations followed by sib-mating resulted in synthesis of a new multivoltine silkworm breed BL67 (SL) with sex-limited larval markings. The new breed was studied for combining ability by crossing with eight bivoltine breeds viz., $NB_4D_2,\;CSR_2,\;CSR_2 (SL),\;CSR_2,\;CSR_4,\;CSR_8,\;CSR_{18}\;and\;CSR_{19}$. General combining ability effects of the new breed showed its superiority over the popular Pure Mysore by expressing significant GCA effects for six out of twelve characters whereas the results are on par with the original multivoltine breed. The hybrid $BL67(SL){\times}CSR2(SL)$ excelled in several quantitative characters such as pupation rate (90.2%), cocoon weight (1.97 g), cocoon shell weight (40 cg), cocoon shell ratio (20.3%), filament length (918 m), denier (2.96), raw silk percentage (14.96%) and neatness (90 p). Studies on cocoon size variability revealed that the cocoons of $BL67(SL){\times}CSR2(SL)$ were found comparatively uniform showing less standard deviation of 6.55 and co-efficient of variation of 3.91 %. The suitability of newly developed breed for easy grain age operation and commercial exploitation with promising hybrid have been discussed.

Silk filament progression study applying backcross breeding with recipient parent Jata and donor parent Daba ecoraces of tropical tasar silkworm, Antheraea mylitta Drury conducted during 2006 to 2008, revealed introgression of filament denier (10.2 d) superior to both parents at BC4 level. Also, the silk waste (0.35%) and filament breaks (2.6 nos) were reduced compared to both parents, while the filament length (973 m) and non break filament (296 m) improved over donor and could attain closer to recipient parent. The best performance of Jata $\times$ Daba at F1 level, with highest silk filament length (1646 m) of 12.5 d denier, denotes heterosis impact on silk trait with parental heterogenousity, an advantage to exploit silk filament yield. The progression of quality in terms of finer filament denier, less silk waste and least number of filament breaks over both parents and improvement in filament length and non break filament over donor parent except for a marginal shortage against recipient at BC4 level indicates the prospects of Jata and Daba ecoraces as source of breeding material for qualitative improvement of tasar silk filament. The study suggests that the commercially important finer denier of tasar silk filament can be attained with minor reduction in silk yield of wild Jata ecorace by adopting repeated backcrossing for four generations with semi domesticated Daba ecorace.
