The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between the coat color appearance of Korean brindle cattle and the changes of relevant hormone levels that may affect the hair pigmentation during different stages of growth and maturation. In mature cattle, levels of both ACTH and DHEA in Korean brindle cattle with brown color were significantly higher than those with black color (p<0.05). Levels of ${\alpha}$-MSH in Korean brindle cattle with whole brindle ($${\geq_-}50%$$) color were significantly higher than those with brown color (p<0.05). In calves of Korean brindle cattle at 2 to 6 months, the concentration of estradiol was significantly higher in calves with whole brindle color than those with part brindle color (p<0.05), when the coat color was confirmed. After 6 month of coat color confirmation, levels of testosterone and ACTH increased in calves with part brindle color and were significantly higher than those with whole brindle color (p<0.05). In calves of Korean brindle cattle at 1 or 2 months, there were no significant differences in hormone levels of estradiol, ACTH, DHEA and ${\alpha}$-MSH between the calves with brindle color and brown color, except estradiol before brindle color appearance. Changes of relevant hormone levels at different stage of growth and maturation may affect the pigmentation of coat during the development of cattle. In addition to the current study correlating the different coat colors with relevant hormone levels, investigation of the coat color associated genes expressed in Korean brindle cattle may further clarify the mechanisms of coat color changes during their development.

쎌러리(Apium graveolens L.)의 체세포배 발생 및 인공종자 발아에 있어서 분자수준의 기작을 이해하기 위하여 ABA 및 저온처리에 의한 단백질합성변화에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 단백질함량과 질산환원효소 활성도는 ABA 및 저온처리한 체세포배 및 유식물은 처리하지 아니한 것에 비하여 특히 유식물에서보다 체세포배 발생시에 더욱 높았다. 2차원 전기영동결과 ABA 및 저온처리에 의하여 심장 형배 시기에서는 30 KD, 32 KD, 171 KD 및 205 KD의 단백질과 자엽시기배에서는 29 KD, 33 KD, 37 KD, 38 KD, 41 KD, 55 KD, 66 KD, 및 110 KD 단백질이 합성되어졌다. 또한 심장형배에서는 42 KD, 44 KD, 59 KD, 64 KD, 101 KD, 104 KD, 및 190 KD의 단백질과 자엽시기에서는 29 KD 및 116 KD의 단백질이 억제되었다. 체세포배 발생 및 인공종자 발아에 있어서 ABA및 저온처리에 의해서 단백질이 합성되어지거나 억제되는 것이 동시에 일어났으며 주로 산성단백질에서 변화가 일어났다. 이와같은 결과는 체세포배 발생과정에서 그리고 체세포배 발아와 유식물의 생장과정에서 환경변화에 적응하기 위한 대사상의 변화가 일어나는 것으로 추정된다.

Hosta is a genus of the family Asparagaceae and distributed in East Asia. There are six Hosta species (Hosta capitata (Koidz.) Nakai, H. clausa Nakai, H. jonesii M.G.Chung, H. minor (Baker) Nakai, H. venusta F.Maek., and H. yingeri S.B.Jones) native to Korea and among them, four species (H. minor, H. jonesii, H. venusta and H. yingeri) are endemic to the Korea peninsula. Hosta is generally propagated by seed, crown division or tissue culture. However, tissue culture is a more efficient method to mass proliferation, a new cultivar development and disease-free plantlet production in a limit time. Hence, we conducted this study to evaluate the influence of various plant growth regulators (PGRs) treatments on the induction of callus and somatic embryo of the six Hosta species. Leaf, petiole and root were used to select optimum tissue culture explants. Petiole explants thus only were used for callus induction and somatic embryogenesis with TDZ (0.1, 0.5 or 1.0mg/L) and NAA (0.1 or 0.5 mg/L) combinations. After 12 weeks of culture, the highest rate of somatic embryogenesis was achieved on modificated MS medium containing 1.0 mg/L TDZ and 0.1 mg/L NAA in H. capitata and H. minor (15.5%, respectively), 0.1 or 0.5 mg/L TDZ and 0.1 mg/L NAA in H. jonesii (22.2%), 1.0 mg/L TDZ and 0.5 mg/L NAA in H. yingeri (26.7%), and 0.1 mg/L TDZ and 0.5 mg/L NAA in H. venusta (53.3%). H. clausa showed very low effect on somatic embryogenesis by PGRs; 2.2%. There was interspecies difference to PGRs respond for callus and somatic embryo induction. Regenerated multiple shoots and plantlet of H. minor, H. jonesii, H. venusta and H. yingeri were obtained via somatic embryogenesis.

효율적이며 반복성 있는 고추의 소포자배양 시스템을 확립하기 위해 꽃봉오리로부터 소포자의 수확 시 나출 방법이 소포자 활력에 미치는 영향을 조사하는 동시에 모 식물 생육 시의 광도, 치상배지의 조성, 및 배양 광 조건이 배의 발생 및 발달에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 광도가 10,000 lux 와 5,500 lux로 각기 다른 곳에서 모식물이 생육된 경우 활력 있는 소포자의 비율은 큰 차이가 없었으며, 소포자 배의 발생이나 발달은 저광도인 5,500 lux에서 생육된 경우에 다소 높아 모 식물 생육 시의 광도가 소포자배의 발생에 미치는 영향이 크지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 5,500 lux에서 생육된 식물에서는 꽃봉오리의 수가 적어 배양에 필요한 소포자를 준비하기가 매우 어려웠다. 활력 있는 소포자의 비율은 체나 막자사발을 이용한 maceration 방법에 비해 blender를 이용하는 경우 13배 이상 높았다. 배의 발생 및 발달에 가장 좋았던 배지는 사용한 배지 중 MN배지였으며, 배양 광 조건은 암 상태에서 배양한 4주 후에 다시 광 상태로 옮겨 1주 배양하는 것이었다. 이상에서와 같은 결과들은 고추에서 형질전환이나 돌연변이 연구에 이용될 수 있을 정도로 많은 배를 생산할 수 있는 소포자 배양 시스템을 확립하는데 중요한 기초 자료가 될 것이다.

Objective: To verify the effect of two forms (growth factor and growthfactor-reduced) of solubilized Matrigel on the development in mouse preimplantation embryos. Methods: Late 2-cell stage eggs were cultured through the blastocyst stage in the presence of GF- or GFR-Matrigel (0.5%, v/v). Morphological development, cell number and % apoptotic nuclei of blastocyst were measured by Roecst staining and TUNEL of nuclei. Results: Morphological development, number of cells per embryo was significantly increased in the presence of GF- or GFR-Matrigel. Culture of the embryos in the GF-Matrigel gave the best result. Conclusion: Low concentration of solubilized Matrigel improved development of mouse embryos regardless of growth factor content of the Matrigel. Growth factors and extracellular matrix protein included in the Matrigel synergistically potentiated the development of mouse embryos.

The effects of temperature, photon irradiance, and photoperiod on the growth of Sargassum horneri embryos were examined for female plants collected at Chokpo in Tongyeoung, Gyeongnam Prefecture, Korea on 27 December 2011. Mature plant receptacles were detached, and fertilized eggs were cultured in the laboratory at temperatures of $5-25^{\circ}C$ with photon irradiances of $10-80{\mu}mol\;m^{-2}s^{-1}$ under 14L:10D and 10L:14D photoperiods. Germination and embryo growth were rapid at $20-25^{\circ}C$ and $40{\mu}mol\;m^{-2}s^{-1}$ under 14L:10D. The number of rhizoids in the germinated young thalli was high at high photon irradiances ($40-80{\mu}mol\;m^{-2}s^{-1}$) and $15-20^{\circ}C$. At $20^{\circ}C$ and 14L:10D, vigorous growth of main and lateral branches was observed; however, at $5^{\circ}C$ under both photoperiods, plant growth decreased markedly. In the present study, S. horneri grew well at high temperatures ($20-25^{\circ}C$) and high photon irradiances ($40-80{\mu}mol\;m^{-2}s^{-1}$) with a 14L:10D photoperiod.

Somatic cells such as oviduct epithelial cell, uterine epithelial cell, cumulus-granulosa cell and buffalo rat river cell has been used to establish an effective culture system for bovine embryos produced in in vitro. But nitric oxide (NO) metabolites secreted from somatic cells were largely arrested the development of bovine in vitro matured/ in vitro fertilized (IVM/IVF) embryos, suggesting that NO was induced the embryonic toxic substance into culture medium. The objective of this study was to investigate whether BOEC co-culture system can ameliorate the NO-mediated oxidative stress in the culture of bovine IVM/IVF embryos. Therefore, we evaluated the developmental rate of bovine IVM/IVF embryos under BOEC co-culture system in the presence or absence of sodium nitroprusside (SNP), as a NO donor, and also detected the expression of growth factor (TGF-$\beta$, EGF and IGFBP) and apoptosis (Caspase-3, Bax and Bcl-2) genes. The supplement of SNP over 5 uM was strongly inhibited blastocyst development of bovine IVM/IVF embryos than in control and 1 uM SNP group (Table 2). The developmental rates beyond morulae stages of bovine IVM/IVF embryos co-cultured with BOEC regardless of SNP supplement (40.4% in 5 uM SNP+ BOEC group and 65.1% in BOEC group) were significantly increased than those of control (35.0%) and SNP single treatment group (23.3%, p<0.05: Table 3). The transcripts of Bax and Caspase-3 genes were detected in all experiment groups (1:Isolated fresh cell (IFC), 2:Primary culture cell (PCC), 3:PCC after using the embryo culture, 4: PCC containing 5 uM SNP and 5: PCC containing 5 uM SNP after using the embryo culture), but Bcl-2 gene was not detected in IFC and PCC (Fig. 1). In the expression of growth factor genes, TGF-$\beta$ gene was found in all experimental groups, and EGF and IGFBP genes were not found in IFC and PCC (Fig. 2). These results indicate that BOEC co-culture system can increase the development beyond morula stages of bovine IVM/IVF embryos, possibly suggesting the alleviation of embryonic toxic substance like nitric oxide.

Polyamines, namely putrescine, spermidine, and spermine, are biogenic low-molecular-weight aliphatic amines. Polyamines play important roles in DNA stabilization, RNA and protein synthesis, membrane stabilization, modulation of ion channels, and protection against oxygen radicals and are essential for cell homeostasis, cell growth, and tumorigenesis.
