The karyotype of Lilium cernum has been analysed by means of C-banding technique. Most of clones observed were 2n=24 chromosomes which consist of two pairs of submetacentric and ten pairs of subtelocentric chromosomes, among which two pairs of chromosomes(B and E) showed secondary constriction in the short arm. In addition to these chromosomes a small supernumerary telocentric chromosome was seen in the eight clones. Sixtyeight bands were observed in the twentytwo chromosomes of complement and one band in the supernumerary chromosome. A pair of chromosome (L) did not show any band. The bnads on the chromosome. A pair of chromosome (L) did not show any band. The bands on the chromosomes were distributed in the centromere, secondary constriction and intercalary regions of arms. Of the twelve pairs of chromosomes ten pairs showed symmetric banding patterns in each, but two pairs (I and K) showed asymmetric banding patterns.

The comparative karyological analysis of the Korean treefrogs, Hyla japonica and Hyla suweonensis, were performed by C-banding method. Heteromorphic sex chromosomes, female heterogamety, has been identified in the 3rd chromosomes of H. suweonensis H. suweonensis seem to have sex chromosomes which are Zz/ZW type. The Z chromosomes contain large amount of constitutive heterochromatin, but little heterochromatin is located in the W chromosomes. This is in contrast to all previously known amphibian and most other vertebrate's W or Y chromosomes, except Gastrotheca oui'ern and G. walken (Schmid et al., 1988).

An enzyme analysis of the liver fluke, Clonorchis sinensis from Kimhae, Korea and from Shenyang, China was conducted using a horizontal. starch gel electrophoresis in order to elucidate their genetic relationships. A total of eight enzymes was employed from two different kinds of buffer systems. Two loci from each enzyme of aconitase and esterase (${\alpha}-Na{\;}and{\;}{\beta}-Na$) : and only one locus each from six enzymes, gluucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD), ${\alpha}-glycerophosphate$ dehydrogenase (GPD), 3-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (HBDH), malate dehydrogenase (MDH), phosphoglucose isomerase (PGI), and phosphoglucomutase (PGM) were detected. Most of loci in two populations of C. sinensis showed homozygous monomorphic banding patterns and one of them, GPD was specific as genetic markers between two different populations. However, esterase (${\alpha}-Na$), GPD, HBDH and PGI loci showed polymorphic banding patterns. Two populations of C. sinensis were more closely clustered within the range of genetic identity value of 0.998-1.0. In summarizing the above results, two populations of C. sinensis employed in this study showed mostly monomorphic enzyme protein banding patterns, and genetic differences specific between two populations.

This experiment was conducted to improve the performance of chickens by the precise separation and analysis of chromosomes which are integrated genetic materials, and by the use of gene manipulation techniques. Following are the main results obtained. 1. When the chromosomes were separated through the leucocyte culture and analyzed by Giemsa banding techniques (especially by the method in which 20 layers of banding patterns could be found in chromosome ＃1), the normal Patterns of chromosomes ＃l-9 and sex chromosomes, and the location of constitutive heterochromatin without any gene activities in all chromosomes were discovered. 2. To utilize the primodial germ cells (PGC) as the genetic vector which is one of the most important gene manipulation techniques, PGC's from triploid were transplanted to normal host embryos. Since the donor PGC's(3n) were found in the gonads of growing host embryos gene manipulation in poultry using PGC's, seemed to be possible.

The genetic variation of Pinus densiflora and Pinus thunbergii by Giemsa C-banding was investigated and the results were as follows : 1. From Karyotype analysis of P. densiflora and P. thunbergii by Giemsa C-banding, somatic chromosome numbers of both species were 2n=24. 2. Chromosome of P. densiflora was M-type in arm ratio and they were no variation among individuals but variation in number and position of the secondary constriction and telomere banding among individuals. 3. P. thunbergii showed also M-type in arm ratio of chromosome, however, there was no variation in both number and position of the secondary constriction among individuals. 4. From chromosome C-banding, bands were appeared in the position of centromere and the secondary constriction in both P. densiflora and P. thunbergii. 5. In P. densiflora, the bands were shown on the secondary-constriction in chromosome No. 3, 4 and 7 of all individuals and the bands of the secondary constriction in chromosome No. 1, 2 and 5 showed variation among individuals. In chromosome No. 9, 10 and 11, the bands were shown in telomere and showed variation among individuals. 6. In P. thunbergii, the bands were shown on the secondary constriction in chromosome No. 2, 3, 7 and 8, and were shown no variation among individuals. There was no band on telomere. 7. The genetic variation by C-banding were shown in P. densiflora among individuals but no in P. thunbergii, and were shown on the secondary constriction in chromosome No. 4 of Pinus densiflora and in clnromosome No. 8 of Pinus thunbergii. These are the difference between the two species by C-banding.

This study describes the identification of Panax species using mitochondrial consensus primers. Initially, a total of thirty primers were tested in ten Korean ginseng cultivars and two foreign Panax species, P. quinquefolius and P. notoginseng. In the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification results, three primers (cox1, nad1/2-3 and nad2/1-2) generated co-dominant polymorphic banding patterns discriminating Korean ginseng cultivars from P. quinquefolius and P. notoginseng. However, these primers could not generated polymorphisms among the Korean ginseng cultivars, and simply represented species-specific polymorphisms for P. quinquefolius and P. notoginseng. Primers PQ91 and PN418 were designed from the consensus sequence of nad1/2-3 region. Two banding patterns (A or B) were detected in PQ91. Korean ginseng cultivars and P. notoginseng shared the same banding pattern (A type) and P. quinquefolius was identified another banding pattern (B type). In the case of PN418, two banding patterns (A or B) were detected in the Korean ginseng cultivars and two foreign Panax species. Korean ginseng cultivars and P. quinquefolius shared the same banding pattern (A type) and P. notoginseng was identified another banding pattern (B type). The combination banding patterns of three Panax species, Korean ginseng cultivars (Panax ginseng C. A. Mey.), P. quinquefolius and P. notoginseng, was identified as 'AA', 'BA' and 'AB', respectively. Consequently, PQ91 and PN418 primer sets can be used to distinguish among Panax species.

This study was carried out to determine the chromosomal localization of the 5S and 18S-26S ribosomal DNA(rDNA) genes by means of fluorescence in situ hybridization(FISH) techniques, and the constitutive heterochromatin detected by means of Gimsa C-banding technique in rye(Secale cereale L.). The somatic chromosomes number was 2n=14. The karyotype consists of four pairs of metacentrics(chromosomes 1, 2, 3, and 7) and three pairs of submetacentrics(chromosomes 4, 5, and 6). Secondary constrictions appeared in the short arm of chromosome 1. The 5S rDNA genes have been located on two pairs of chromosomes 1 and 5, and 18S-26S rDNAs genes have been located on one pair of chromosome 1. 5S rDNA genes were detected on the distal region of the secondary constrictions in nucleolus organizer regions(NOR) in chromosome 1, and other detected on the intercalary region in the short arm of chromosome 5.

This study was conducted to establish mass propagation system from the axillary bud culture of chrysanthemum zawadskii H. which was used as material of medicinal plants. Shoot egeneration was better on MS medium with NAA and BA. The optimum concentraions of growth regulator for shoot regeneration differed depending on accessionsof C. Zawadskii. Shoot regeneration in Keungucheolcho was better on MS Medium with NAA 0.01mg/1 and BA 0.1mg/1 while Hyangrobonggucheocho was better with NAA 0.1mg/1and BA 0.3mg/1. Addition of NAA into medium was effective for induction of root from shoots regenerated. Shoot multiplcation was more effective when 10mg/1 spermine was added into medium than when other polyamines were treated ino medium . Randomly and specifically amplified polymorphic DAC banding patterns based on polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis were used to assess the genetic variation of plants regenerated from in vitro culture.

Mesophyll protoplasts derived from young leaves of Nicotiana rustica and N. tabacum cv Burley 21 were fused with the aid of polyethylene glycol(PEG). Cytological examination of protoplasts after PEG treatment revealed 12.8 % heterokaryocytes. After 7 weeks culture, the hybrid calli showing greenish white with a compact appearance were selected in contrast to parental type calli tinged with white or green color. The somatic hybrid plants were verified by morphological, biochemical and cyclological analysis. A heterosis effect for plant vigor and height was observed but the shape of leaves and flower characteristics were intermediate between N. tabacum and N. rutstica. The isozyme banding patterns for peroxidase of somatic hybrid lines were compared with the parent species. A number of isozyme bands derived from both parental species were found in the hybrids. Somatic hybrid plants have been successfully backcrossed to the parental N. tabacum particularly with somatic hybrid plants as female parents. These hybrid plants yielded small seeds, only few which were germinable.
