Morphology of two foreign species of tongue soles (Cynoglossidae), Cynogiossus browni and C. senekalensis, was observed based on specimens collected from Kunsan fish market from 1992 to 1994. These species are externally similar to Cynoglossus robustus from Korean coast. But these are quite distincitive from Cynogiossus robustus by interlinear scale rows, body size, other counts and proportional measurements of body. The Cynogfossus browni and C. senegalensis are only distributed in western coast of Africa and commercially imported to Korea through Pusan fish market.

1998년 병든 화본과작물, 목초, 잔디 및 야생잡초의 잎점무늬와 마름병징으로부터 Curvularia spp. 16균주를 분리하였다. 이들 균주를 균학적 특징을 기초로 동정한 결과 C. cymbopogonis, C. inaequalis, C. intermedia, C. lunata, C. lunata var. aeria, C. ovoidea, C. pallescens C. senegalensis로 동정되었다. 이중에서 C. cymbopogonis, C. lunata var. aeria, C. ovoidea, C. senegalensis는 국내에서 처음 보고되는 미기록종들이다.

Numerous ethnomedicinal uses have been attributed to different parts of Annona senegalensis (ASE), including its uses as food and food additives. The present study investigated toxicological and antioxidant effects of 28 days administration of ethanol extracts of ASE stem bark to Wistar strain albino rats. Acute toxicity test was done to determine lethal dose in Wistar rats while sub-acute toxicity test was conducted on rats divided into four groups (A - control, B - 50 mg/kg, C - 100 mg/kg, D - 150 mg/kg, respectively and treated for 28 days. Oxidative stress markers in liver and kidney as well as hepatic succinate dehydrogenase activity in the mitochondrial and post mitochondrial fractions (PMF) were evaluated. The $LD_{50}$ value of ASE was > 2,000 mg/kg. White blood cell counts gradually increased, but red blood cell counts and haematocrits level decreased significantly (p < 0.05) by about 50%. Liver enzymes in the serum and mitochondrial succinate dehydrogenase activity increased significantly (p < 0.05). Superoxide dismutase and catalase activities also increased in liver mitochondria and PMF while malondialdehyde (MDA) and reduced glutathione levels increased only in the PMF. Furthermore, only MDA levels increased significantly in the kidney after 28 days extract administration. Histopathological examination showed hepatic necrosis and no obvious signs of nephrotoxicity. Anona senegalensis is relatively safe, but prolonged ingestion could induce oxidative stress and impair ATP synthesis through the modulation of the activity of mitochondrial succinate dehydrogenase.

본 연구에서는 국산 참서대과 어류 5종(개서대, 참서대, 칠서대, 박대, 용서대) 및 수입산 참서대과(Cynoglossidae) 어류 5종(기니개서대, 긴개서대, 큰비늘개서대, 큰입개서대, 세네갈 개서대)을 대상으로 분자생물학적 방법을 이용한 신속하고 정확한 종판별법을 검토하였다. 참서대과 어류 10종에 대한 최적의 종 특이 프라이머를 선정하기 위하여 약 1,500 bp의 COI 유전자를 분석하였으며, 종간 특이적인 단일염기다형성 유전자가 3’ 말단에 위치하도록 프라이머를 제작하였다. 제작된 10종에 대한 종특이 정방향 프라이머는 동일한 PCR조건과 전기영동을 통해 육안으로 식별이 가능할 정도의 PCR 산물의 상대적인 크기를 고려하였다. 다중 PCR 분석을 위해 종특이 정방향 프라이머는 모두 혼합되어 사용되었으며, 그 결과 세네갈개서대(208 bp), 용서대(322 bp), 큰입개서대(493 bp), 큰 비늘개서대(754 bp), 박대(874 bp), 칠서대(952 bp), 참서대(1,084 bp), 긴개서대(1,198 bp), 개서대(1,307 bp), 기니개서대(1,483 bp)에 해당하는 종 특이적인 증폭을 확인하였다. 또한 이들의 PCR 민감도를 측정한 결과 0.1~1.0 ng/μ l의 농도까지 검출이 가능한 것을 확인 하였다. 본 연구에서 확인된 참서대과 어류 10종에 대한 종특이 프라이머는 특이도 및 민감도가 우수하며 향후 수산물의 수출입 및 유통 관리에 사용이 이루어진다면 정확한 종명 표기가 가능하여 국민 먹거리 안전을 위한 효과적인 방법이 될 것이다.

An in vitro rumen batch culture study was completed to compare effects of common grasses, leguminous shrubs and non-leguminous shrubs used for livestock grazing in Australia and Ghana on $CH_4$ production and fermentation characteristics. Grass species included Andropodon gayanus, Brachiaria ruziziensis and Pennisetum purpureum. Leguminous shrub species included Cajanus cajan, Cratylia argentea, Gliricidia sepium, Leucaena leucocephala and Stylosanthes guianensis and non-leguminous shrub species included Annona senegalensis, Moringa oleifera, Securinega virosa and Vitellaria paradoxa. Leaves were harvested, dried at $55^{\circ}C$ and ground through a 1 mm screen. Serum bottles containing 500 mg of forage, modified McDougall's buffer and rumen fluid were incubated under anaerobic conditions at $39^{\circ}C$ for 24 h. Samples of each forage type were removed after 0, 2, 6, 12 and 24 h of incubation for determination of cumulative gas production. Methane production, ammonia concentration and proportions of VFA were measured at 24 h. Concentration of aNDF (g/kg DM) ranged from 671 to 713 (grasses), 377 to 590 (leguminous shrubs) and 288 to 517 (non-leguminous shrubs). After 24 h of in vitro incubation, cumulative gas, $CH_4$ production, ammonia concentration, proportion of propionate in VFA and IVDMD differed (p<0.05) within each forage type. B. ruziziensis and G. sepium produced the highest cumulative gas, IVDMD, total VFA, proportion of propionate in VFA and the lowest A:P ratios within their forage types. Consequently, these two species produced moderate $CH_4$ emissions without compromising digestion. Grazing of these two species may be a strategy to reduce $CH_4$ emissions however further assessment in in vivo trials and at different stages of maturity is recommended.
