From 2008 to 2009, the stem rot of Astragalus sinicus L. caused by Sclerotium rolfsii occurred sporadically in Gyeongnam area, Korea. The typical symptom is water-soaking, rotting and wilting on the stem. The infected plants were eventually died. White mycelial mats were spread over lesions, and then sclerotia were formed on stems and near soil line. The sclerotia were globoid in shape, white to brown in color, 1-3 mm in size and the hyphal width was 3-9 μm. The optimum temperature for mycelial growth and sclerotial formation on PDA was 30oC. The typical clamp connections were observed in the hyphae of the fungus grown on PDA. On the basis of mycological characteristics and pathogenicity to host plants, this fungus was identified as Sclerotium rolfsii Saccardo. This is the first report on the stem rot of A. sinicus caused by S. rolfsii in Korea.

A 2-month-old, intact female white Bull Terrier presented because of suspected deafness. The coat color was predominantly white and the iris color, of both eyes, was brown. The dog did not respond to the owner's voice when the sound stimuli were presented outside of the visual field; however, the dog responded to visual gestures. The other physical, neurological, otoscopic, radiographic, and blood examinations were unremarkable. To assess the apparent deafness, brainstem auditory evoked responses (BAER) were recorded and analyzed in the dog with suspected deafness as well as a normal littermate. The response in the normal littermate consisted of a series of five wave peaks (I-V) with decreased amplitude and prolonged latency as the stimulus intensity decreased. The BAER from the dog suspected of deafness appeared as a flat line and did not reveal identifiable peaks that corresponded to those found in the normal littermate. Thus, congenital, sensorineural and bilateral deafness was confirmed by the BAER.

Pseudomonas tolaasii 6264 is a representative strain that causes bacterial blotch disease on the cultivated oyster mushroom, Pleurotus ostreatus. Bacteriophages are able to sterilize the pathogenic P. tolaasii strains, and therefore, they can be applied in creating disease-free mushroom cultivation farms, through a method known as "phage therapy". For successful phage therapy, the characterization of phage-resistant strains is necessary, since they are frequently induced from the original pathogenic bacteria in the presence of phages. When 10 different phages were incubated with P. tolaasii 6264, their corresponding phage-resistant strains were obtained. In this study, changes in pathogenic, genetic, and biochemical characteristics as well as the acquired phage resistance of these strains were investigated. In the phylogenetic analyses, all phage-resistant strains were identical to the original parent strain based on the sequence comparison of 16S rRNA genes. When various phage-resistant strains were examined by three different methods, pitting test, white line test, and hemolytic activity, they were divided into three groups: strains showing all positive results in three tests, two positive in the first two tests, and all negative. Nevertheless, all phage-resistant strains showed that their pathogenic activities were reduced or completely lost.

The occurrence of Austroboletus subflavidus and Fistulinella gloeocarpa is documented from the Dominican Republic. The latter species is reported for the first time outside its original locality in Martinique, extending the geographic range for this uncommon pinkish-spored bolete. A detailed morphological description is provided for each species and accompanied by color pictures of fresh basidiomes in habitat and line drawings of the main anatomical features. Both species represent independent lineages within their respective genera based on phylogenetic inference. In addition, A. subflavidus clusters in a sister lineage to the core Austroboletus clade (Austroboletus clade I) here named as Austroboletus clade II. In order to confirm the accuracy of species identification, their identity and relationships were subjected to multilocus phylogenetic analyses of three gene markers (ITS, nrLSU, RPB2) including genetic material already available in public databases. Austroboletus subflavidus is a widely distributed species in North and Central America, whereas F. gloeocarpa is apparently highly localized and seems to appear sparingly in the Dominican Republic, Martinque, and southern Florida. Comparisons with morphologically similar and molecularly inferred allied species are also presented and discussed.

Sargassum horneri (SH), a brown macroalgae, has medicinal properties. The present study investigated the immune-enhancing effects of SH extract on peritoneal macrophages (PM). The SH significantly increased the production of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and nitric oxide (NO) in PM. It was confirmed that SH significantly increased NO expression through the increase of iNOS protein expression, which is the up-regulation pathway. Additionally, it was determined if SH activates the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway, an upper regulatory mechanism that influences TNF-α, IL-6, and NO expression. Consequently, SH significantly increased the phosphorylation of p38, extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERK), and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), all of which are MAPK pathway proteins. Moreover, the immune-enhancing effects of SH on another macrophage cell line, bone marrow-derived macrophages were investigated. It was observed that SH significantly enhanced TNF-α, IL-6, and NO production. Overall, this study demonstrates the immune-enhancing effects of SH on macrophages via activated MAPK pathway. Therefore, it suggests that SH has the potential to improve immunological activity in various macrophage cell lines and can be useful as an immune-enhancing treatment.

Mungbean(Vigna radiata (L.) R. Wilczek) is one of legume cultivated in south and east Asia. It well cultivated in high temperature and drought condition. In order to establish pure line for genomic studies, the agronomical characteristics of Korean mungbean landraces were evaluated. A total of 324 acessions derived from National Agrobiodiversity Center were selfed two times in 2021 nersery. Tree times of selfed from 324 accessions were characterized. The color of seed coat was divided into three groups: green, yellow and brown. Among them green color was the most common with 91.7%. Flower colors were divided into four groups: yellow, purplish yellow, greenish yellow and purplish green. Among them purplish yellow color had the highest with 77.8%. Out of 324 resources, only 4 showed compound leaves, and all resources had a heart-shaped leaf. The days to first flowering was 31 to 78 days. About 63% of the accessions bloomed 35 to 50 days after sowing. 324 Korean landraces are expected to be used as a population of the Korean mungbean core collection and serve as a basis for genomic breeding materials for mungbean.

계란의 내부 및 외부의 품질을 나타내는 요소들 사이의 상관 관계를 분석하여, 할란 검사를 통하지 않고도 계란 품질을 예측하는데 적합한 지표가 있는지 알아보기 위한 실험을 수행하였다. 케이지 계사에서 사육 중인 27주령의 하이라인 브라운 산란계 동일 계군이 같은 날에 산란한 180개의 계란을 수집하였다. 분석 항목으로는 호우유닛, 농후난백높이, 파각 강도, 난각 두께, 난각 색(CIE L^*, CIE a^*, CIE b^*, 반사율), 계란의 중량, 계란의 장경, 계란의 폭, 난형 지수 및 난황색 등 총 13가지의 지표를 조사하였다. 피어슨 상관 계수(r)를 이용하여, 각 품질 지표 사이의 선형 관계성을 평가하였다. 호우유닛과 농후난백높이, 난각색 CIE L^*값과 반사율, 그리고 계란 중량과 계란의 폭 사이에서 매우 강한 정의 상관 관계가 분석되었다(r=0.975, r=0.973, r=0.814, P<0.001). 계란의 중량과 계란의 장경, 난각색 CIE L^*값과 난각색 CIE a^*값, 난각색 CIE a^*값와 반사율, 그리고 난형 지수와 계란의 장경 사이에는 높은 상관 관계가 나타났다(r=0.703, r=-0.726, r=-0.681, r=-0.681, P<0.001). 난각의 파각 강도와 난각의 두께, 난각색 CIE a^*값과 난각색 CIE b^*, 난형 지수와 계란의 폭 사이에는 중간 정도의 상관 관계가 나타났다(r = 0.417, r = 0.590, r = 0.405, P<0.001). 난각색 CIE a^*값은 호우유닛, 농후난백높이와 약한 정의 상관 관계가 있었으며(r=0.217, r=0.202, P<0.01), 난각색 CIE L^*값과 파각 강도 사이에는 약한 부의 상관 관계가 나타났다(r=-0.236, P<0.01). 난각색 CIE b^*값은 난각 두께와 약한 부의 상관 관계를 보였고, 난각색 반사율은 파각 강도 및 난각 두께와 약한 부의 상관 관계에 있는 것으로 나타났다(r=-0.225, r=-0.249, r=-0.222, P<0.01). 그 외 나머지 품질 지표들 간의 상관성은 통계적으로 유의하지 않거나 관계가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 갈색란의 난각색은 반사율만으로 표현하는 것 보다, CIE L^*값, CIE a^*값과 CIE b^*값을 함께 적용했을 때 갈색의 정도를 더 구체적으로 표현한다. 결론적으로 본 연구를 바탕으로 갈색란의 난각색 CIE L^*a^*b^*값은 계란의 품질 지표인 호우유닛, 농후난백높이, 난각의 파각 강도와 두께를 간접적으로 예측하는데 사용할 수 있을 것으로 판단되었다.
