염 내성 돌연변이체를 선발하기 위하여, ethyl methane sulfonate(EMS)로 처리된 돌연변이 종자 집단을 사용하였다. 150 mM NaCl 고염 스트레스 하에서 종자 발아 내성을 보이는 세 종류의 EMS 돌연변이체를 선발하였다. 세 종류의 EMS 돌연변이체들 중, salt tolerance 42-14(sto42-14) 돌연변이체는 175 mM NaCl 고농도에서 종자 발아율이 대조구(WT)에 비해 7배 이상의 높은 발아율을 보였다. 또한 내염성 sto42-14 돌연변이체는 glucose(Glc)에 대해서도 비감수성을 갖고 있음을 관찰되었고, 흥미롭게도 sto42-14돌연변이체에 $20{\mu}M$ gibberellin(GA)을 처리한 결과, 대조구에 비해 하배축과 뿌리의 생장이 억제됨을 관찰할 수 있었다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로, 고염 내성 sto42-14 돌연변이체는 Glc 뿐만 아니라 GA호르몬 반응에도 관련되어져 있음을 알 수 있다.

본 연구는 돌연변이원인 EMS(ethyl-methane-sulfonate)를 이용하여 춘란 잎 돌연변이 품종을 개발하고자 수행되었다. 조직배양기술을 이용하여 발아시킨 춘란 근경에 0.2%의 EMS를 처리함으로써 엽록소 결핍 돌연변이 근경을 유도하였다. EMS 처리시 50%이상의 춘란 근경이 갈변되었으며, 갈변된 근경을 근경증식용 고체배지에 배양하였을때 갈변된 근경의 일부 조직으로부터 새로운 측지근경의 생장이 관찰되었다. 이러한 근경조직을 절단하여 1년간 계대배양하던 중 관찰된 색소변이 근경을 식물체로 재분화시킨 결과 중투, 사피, 산반, 단엽종 등 다양한 잎 돌연변이 식물체들로 분화하였다. 이러한 결과들로부터 EMS 처리에 의해 잎 돌연변이 식물체들이 효과적으로 유도되었음을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 본 연구결과에서 얻어진 춘란잎 돌연변이 식물체를 대량 증식시킬 수 있는 배양체계도 확립되어있다. 그러므로 본 연구에서 개발한 잎 돌연변이 춘란은 향후 산업적으로 이용이 가능할 것으로 생각된다.

Reed (Phragmites spp.) is a rhizomatous plant of the Poaceae family and is known as high tolerant plant to heavy metal contaminants. This plant is widely recognized as a Cd root-accumulator, but improved heavy metal tolerance and uptake capacity are still required for phytoremediation efficiency. To enhance capacity of hyperaccumulator plants, ethyl methane sulfonate (EMS) as chemical mutagen has been introduced and applied to remediation approaches. This study aimed to select EMS-mutagenized reeds representing high Cd resistance and large biomass and to investigate their ability of Cd accumulation. After 6 months cultivation of M₂ mutant reeds under Cd stress conditions (up to 1,500 µM), we discovered seven mutant individuals that showed good performances like survivorship, vitality, and high accumulation of Cd, particularly in their roots. Compared to wild type (WT) reeds as control, on average, dry weight of mutant type (MT) reeds was larger by 2 and 1.5 times in roots and shoots, respectively. In addition, these mutant plants accumulated 6 times more Cd, mostly in the roots. In particular, MT8 reeds showed the greatest ability to accumulate Cd. These results suggest that EMS mutagenesis could generate hyperaccumulator plants with enhanced Cd tolerance and biomass, thereby contributing to improvement of phytoremediation efficiency in Cd-contaminated soil or wastewater. Further studies should focus on identifying Cd tolerance mechanisms of such EMS-mutagenized plants, developing techniques for its biomass production, and investigating the practical potential of the EMS mutants for phytoremediation.

In order to clarify the biological effects of chemical mutagen, ethyl methane sulphonate (EMS), in M, seedling(Ponax ginseng C. A. Meyer) . the dehiscent seeds of ginseng were treated with EMS for 12 hours at 20t and Post-washed for 24 to 72 hours. The differences of biological injuries in M, generation due to the concentration of EMS were quite obvious in rate and date of germination, stem length, stem diameter, leaf length, leaf width, root length, root diameter, and root weight . Especially, the seeds treated with the high concentration of EMS , above 0.8%, were not germinated The growth injury was directly proportional to the concentration of EMS but not relative to the post-washing time of afire 25 hours. The useful range of EMS concentration and post-washing time in ginseng seeds were 0.4 % - 0.6% and above 24 hours, respectively.

A marine bacterium Bacillus cereus ASK202, agarase producing strain, was treated with some mutagenic agents, ultraviolte(UV), 1-methyl-3-nitro-1-nitrosoguanidine(NTG), and ethyl methane sulfonate(EMS), several times for the increasing of the agarase production After mutagen treatment, we isolated one mutant strain treated with NTG showed the highest stability and agarase productivity and named as Bacillus cereus ASK202-N3. This Bacillus cereus ASK202-N3 strain was well grown in the modified marine medium containing 0.5%(w/v) agar, 0.3%(w/v) yeast extract, and 5.0%(w/v) NaCl, and the optimal initial pH, temperature and culture time were 7.8, $25^{\circ}C$ and 32h, respectively. In the optimal culture conditions, the agarase production was increased to 5.3 fold(850units/L) compared to that of the wild type.

To isolate a mutant strain which overproduces tryptophan, mutants of Candida rugosa were screened after EMS (ethyl methane sulfonate) mutagenesis. Fluorotryptophan, a tryptophan analogue, was used for selection of a tryptophan-overproducing mutant after mutagenesis. Among 50 mutants, several candidates were selected based on intracellular tryptophan content. Amino acid analysis results showed that C3 was the best strain because it had the highest amount of tryptophan among the mutants.

This study was conducted to investigate the sensitivity of Arthrobacter sp. PAMC 25486 to various mutagens. ${\gamma}-ray$, UV-ray, Ethyl methane sulfonate (EMS) and hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O_2$) were used as mutagen, and the survival rate of Arthrobacter sp. was measured at various doses of ${\gamma}-ray$ and UV-ray, and concentrations of EMS and $H_2O_2$. Decimal reduction dose ($D_{10}$ value) of Arthrobacter sp. was determined 370 Gy for a gamma irradiation treatment, 0.019 J for a UV ray, 2.5 mM for EMS, and 230 mM for $H_2O_2$. This result will be applied for the development of superior mutant strain of Arctic bacteria producing valuable compounds.

Leaf structure is one of the important agronomic traits. A rolled leaf mutant was induced from an ethyl methane sulfonate (EMS)-treated japonica rice, 'Koshihikari'. The rolled leaf mutant showed phenotypes of reduced leaf width and leaf rolling. In addition, several abnormal morphological characteristics were observed, including dwarfism, defected panicle, delayed germination, and lower seed-setting. Microscopic analysis revealed that the number of small veins was decreased and the sizes of adaxial bulliform cells were reduced in the mutant leaves. The genetic study with two $F_2$ populations from the crosses of the rolled leaf mutant with 'Koshihikari' and Milyang23 suggested that the mutant phenotype might be controlled by a single dominant gene.

Ethanol, total saponin and petroleum ether extract of Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer were tested for their anticlastogenic effects against induction of micronuclei by cyclophosphamide and benzo(a)pyrene in mice. Ginseng petroleum ether extract (GPEE) showed the highest suppressive effect among three extracts. GPEE was also tested to compare their anticlastogenic effect against several well-known carcinogens: such as mitomycin C, 7, 12-dimethyl benzo(a)anthracene, ethyl methane sulfonate, dimethylnitrosamine and busulfan. GPEE showed the anticlastogenic effect against most of carcinogens, although there were no significant effects against 7, 12-dimethyl benzo(a) anthracene, dimethyl nitrosoamine and busulfan-induced micronuclei.

살아 움직이는 요각류를 모세관으로 분리 할 때 마취제(MS-222)의 이용은 편리할 뿐만 아니라 분리 후 요각류의 생존율을 높일 수 있다. 본 실험은 다양한 종류와 크기의 요각류를 효율적으로 분리하기 위하여 부착성 요각류인 Tigriopus japonicus 수컷과 포란한 암컷을 대상으로 MS-222의 농도별(500, 750, 1,000 ppm) 마취시간과 회복시간 그리고 마취 후 분리된 개체들의 생존율 및 포란한 암컷의 nauplius 생산력을 비교 조사하였다. 그 결과는 다음과 같다. MS-222의 농도가 높아질수록 마취시간은 짧고 회복시간은 길게 나타났다. MS-222로 마취 후 분리한 T. japonicus의 14일간의 생존율에서 수컷은 포란한 암컷 실험구에 비해 유의적으로 높게 나타났으나 수컷 대조구와 유의적 차를 보이지 않았다. 반대로 포란한 암컷의 경우는, 750 ppm, 1,000 ppm에서는 생존율이 대조구나 500 ppm 에서보다 유의적으로 낮았다. MS-222 농도가 높을수록 T. japonicus의 부화횟수와 부화량은 적고, 부화주기는 길었다. 그러나 500 ppm 실험구는 대조구와 유의적인 차이가 없어 T. japonicus의 분리 시 적정 농도는 500 ppm 정도로 판단된다. 이러한 결과는 차후 다양한 크기의 요각류를 분리할 때 MS-222의 적정 농도를 파악하는데 유익한 기초 자료가 될 것이다.
