The genetic diversity of domestic quail and two wild quail species, Japanese （Coturnix coturnix）and Common quail (Coturnix japonica), found in China was studied using microsatellite DNA markers. According to a comparison of the corresponding genetic indices in the three quail populations, such as Polymorphism Information Content (PIC), Mean Heterozygosity ($\bar{H}$) and Fixation Index, wild Common quail possessed rich genetic diversity with 4.67 alleles per site. Its values for PIC and $\bar{H}$ were the highest, 0.5732 and 0.6621, respectively. Domestic quail had the lowest values, 0.5467 and 0.5933, respectively. Wild Japanese quail had little difference in genetic diversity from domestic quail. In addition, from analyses of the fuzzy cluster based on standard genetic distance, the similarity relationship matrix coefficient between wild Japanese quail and domestic quail was 0.937, and that between wild Common quail and domestic quail was 0.783. All of these results showed that the wild Japanese quail were closer to the domestic quail for phylogenetic relationship than wild Common quail. These results at the molecular level provide useful data about quail's genetic background and further supported the hypothesis that the domestic quail originated from the wild Japanese quail.

Cross fertility between wild Japanese quail and domestic quail was explored in an experiment conducted on 18（3♂, 15♀）wild Japanese quails in Weishan Lake area, 18（3♂, 15♀）medium-sized domestic quails and 18（3♂, 15♀）pint-sized domestic quails, which were divided into nine groups. This study demonstrated that wild quail could succeed in crossing with domestic quail,producing fertilized eggs and hatching first filial generation. The findings indicated that there were no reproduction isolation between the wild Japanese quail and domestic quail, and that the best cross combination was between wild male quail and medium-sized domestic female quail, in which the fertility rate and hatchability of fertilized eggs amounted to 42.86% and 29.63% respectively. Based on the results, a new way could be adopted to protect, exploit and utilize genetic resources of wild quail.

The study was attempted to scrutinize the normal osmotic fragility of erythrocytes in domestic poultry such as chicken, quail and duck making a comparison with that in domestic mammalia such as dog and pig. Osmotic fragility of erythrocytes was determined on blood samples from 10 healthy adult animal in each species. Optical initial hemolysis of erytyrocytes occurred at $0.395{\pm}0.03%$ Nacl for chicken, $0.410{\pm}0.03%$ for duck, $0.440{\pm}0.02%$ for quail, $0.470{\pm}0.05%$ for dog and $0.560{\pm}0.03%$ for pig. Optical complete hemolysis of erytyrocytes occurred at $0.270{\pm}0.02%$ Nacl for chicken, $305{\pm0}.03%$ for duck, $0.360{\pm}0.02%$ for quail, $0.370{\pm}0.03%$ for dog and $0.455{\pm}0.03%$ for p. In other words, erythrocytes of poultry have stronger resistance to osmotic Iysis than that of mammalia, showing the strongest resistance In chicken among the tested poultry.

Osmotic fragility of erythrocytes was determined on blood samples from 10 healthy adult animals in each species. Optical initial hemolysis of erythrocytes occurred at $0.395{\pm}0.03%$ NaCl for chicken, $0.410{\pm}0.03%$ for duck, $0.440{\pm}0.02%$ for quail, $0.470{\pm}0.05%$ for dog and $0.560{\pm}0.03%$ for pig. Optical complete hemolysis of erythrocytes occurred at $0.270{\pm}0.02%$ NaCl for chicken, $0.305{\pm}0.03%$ for duck, $0.360{\pm}0.02%$ for quail, $0.370{\pm}0.03%$ for dog and $0.455{\pm}0.03%$ for pig. In other words, erythrocytes of poultry have stronger resistance to osmotic lysis than those of mammalia, showing the strongest resistance in chicken among the tested poultry.

This paper is based on the 36 wild Japanese quails which migrated to and settled in the Weishan Lake area. The gene frequency of 10 loci encoding the enzymes in viscera and muscle was detected. After collecting the same data about 20 quail colonies in China and other countries, it clusters the 21 quail populations by fuzzy cluster analysis. The study indicates that the wild Japanese quail in the Weishan Lake area is closer to domestic quail for phylogenetic system than wild Japanese quails in Japanese Islands. The paper supports the thesis that the quail domestication area should be further studied.

Domestic poultry are among the non-target species of exposure to fipronil, but limited information is available on the metabolic effects of fipronil exposure in avian. We investigated the comparative capacity of in vitro biotransformation of fipronil among chicken, duck, quail, goose, and rat. Interspecies differences in kinetic parameters were observed; the clearance rate calculations (Vmax/Km) indicated that chicken and duck are more efficient in the cytochrome P450-mediated metabolism of fipronil to sulfone than quail, goose and rat. The lower hepatic clearance of fipronil in quail, goose and rat, suggested that fipronil sulfone may serve as a biomarker to indicate fipronil exposure in these species.

연구는 방글라데시에서 조류인플루엔자와 뉴캐슬 질병 바이러스가 국내의 현장 샘플에서 혼합항원키트의 민감도와 특이성을 평가하기 위하여 육계 및 산란계와 토종 닭 그리고 사육 야생오리, 거위, 비둘기와 메추라기로부터 야외 샘플을 수집하였다. 샘플은 방글라데시의 5 지역에서 발생한 조류인플루엔자 자연감염된 것으로 의심되는 닭과 야생사육조수로부터 수집되었다. 각 지역으로부터 2마리씩 선택적으로 샘플을 수집하였으며, 각 조류에서는 면봉을 이용하여 기도, 총배설강, 구-비강으로부터 3가지 유형의 샘플을 채취하였다. 70 마리의 조류에서 총210개의 야외 샘플이 수집되었으며, 조류인플레인자와 뉴캣슬병 바이러스 혼합항원신속진단키트를 검사하였다. 210개 샘플 중에서 15개(5 마리)가 조류인플루엔자 바이러스, 63개(21 마리)가 뉴캣슬병 바이러스, 27개(9 마리)에서 두 가지의 혼합감염이 나 타났으며, 그 외에서는 모두 음성으로 나타났다. 5 곳의 조류인플루엔자 양성 중에서 Mymensingh, Netrokona, Gibandha와 Kurigram의 마켓으로부터 산란계에서, Kurigram의 마켓에서 토종닭에서 양성이 나타났다. 야생사육조수는 뉴캣슬병에 양성이거나 또는 조류인플루엔자와 뉴캣슬병 바이러스에는 감염되지 않았다. 조류인플루엔자 및 뉴캣슬병 바이러스 신속진단키트로 기도, 총배설강, 구-비강으로부터 채집한 샘플에서 동시에 검출할 수 있는 것으로서 효과적으로 사용될 것으로 평가되었다. 조류인플레인자와 뉴캣슬병 바이러스 혼합 항원 검사 결과는 명확히 두 개의 바이러스 검출을 위한 테스트 키트로서 적은 노력과 대규모의 필드 샘플로부터 이들 바이러스의 검출에 효과적으로 사용될 수 있는 최신의 과학적 방법이며, 신속하게 질병을 진단할 수 있었다.

본 연구에서는 식품 중 동물성 사용원료의 진위 판별을 위하여 분자생물학적 기법을 이용한 시험법을 개발하였다. 동물성 식품원료의 종 판별을 위한 유전자로는 미토콘드리아 DNA에 존재하는 COI, Cytb, 및 16S rRNA 유전자를 대상으로 하였으며, 가공식품에 적용하기 위하여 PCR 산물의 크기는 200 bp 내외가 되도록 종 특이 프라이머를 설계하였다. 대상종으로는 가축류 2종, 가금류 6종, 민물어류 2종, 해양어류 13종 및 갑각류 1종, 총 24종을 선정하였으며 종 특이 프라이머를 이용하여 예상되는 PCR 산물의 생성 유무를 확인하였다. PCR을 수행한 결과 토끼, 여우, 꿩, 집비둘기, 멧비둘기, 메추리, 참새, 제비, 메기, 쏘가리, 날치, 열빙어, 청어, 까나리, 멸치, 참조기, 넙치, 조피볼락, 홍어, 가오리, 말쥐치, 농어, 성게 및 바닷가재에 대하여 각각 156, 204, 152, 160, 113, 163, 167, 152, 165, 121, 136, 151, 178, 178, 146, 188, 177, 166, 179, 218, 188, 185, 127 및 172 bp에서 PCR 증폭 산물을 확인하였다. 그리고 프라이머 별로 비교종에서는 비특이적 PCR 산물(non-specific PCR product)은 생성되지 않았다. 본 연구에서 개발된 유전자 분석법을 이용하여 동물성 식품원료가 사용된 식품 원료 및 가공식품의 진위 판별에 활용이 가능할 것이며, 불량식품 근절에 크게 기여할 것으로 기대된다.
