Effects of environmental factors on the zoospore release and germling growth of Chaetomorpha linum were examined. Zoospore release and germling growth experiments were carried out under a combination of temperatures ${\times}$ irradiances, and a single factor of irradiances, salinities, daylength and nutrients (nitrogen, phosphorus). Zoospore release was maximal under condition of $20^{\circ}C{\times}100{\mu}mol\;photons\;m^{-2}s^{-1}$ in a factorial experiment (temperatures ${\times}$ irradiances), at $100{\mu}mol\;photons\;m^{-2}s^{-1}$ in irradiance experiment and at 34 psu in salinity conditions. After 24 days in culture, germling growth was maximal at $25^{\circ}C{\times}100{\mu}mol\;photons\;m^{-2}s^{-1}$ in temperatures ${\times}$ irradiances and at normal seawater (34 psu) in salinity. Germling growth is faster at higher irradiance under same temperature condition and it increased with increasing daylengths (8-16 h). Chaetomorpha linum grew in wide range of N and P concentrations. The growth of germling was maximal at $50{\mu}M\;{PO_4}^{3-}$ and $40{\mu}M\;{NH_4}^+$. Germling growth was more effective under nitrogen addition than phosphorus addition in culture. In conclusion, optimal environmental conditions for zoospore release were $20^{\circ}C$, $100{\mu}mol\;photons\;m^{-2}s^{-1}$, and 34 psu. In addition, the optimal germling growth was observed at $25^{\circ}C$, $100{\mu}mol\;photons\;m^{-2}s^{-1}$, 34 psu, 16 h, $50{\mu}M\;({PO_4}^{3-})$ and $40{\mu}M\;{(NH_4}^+)$.

Objective: Evaluate the partial replacement of soybean meal with different protein sources in piglet feed during the nursery phase in terms of digestibility of feed, nitrogen balance, growth performance and blood parameters. Methods: Experiment I involved 24 crossbred entire male pigs with an initial body weight (BW) of $18.28{\pm}0.7kg$ and used a randomized complete block design consisting of 3 treatments (fish meal, FM; soybean protein concentrate, SPC; and soybean meal, SBM) and 8 replicates, with 1 pig per experimental unit. Experiment II involved 1,843 crossbred male and female pigs with an initial BW of $6.79{\pm}0.90kg$ and was based on a completely randomized design with a $2{\times}3$ factorial arrangement (2 sexes and 3 protein sources) and 13 replicates. Results: The results of Exp. I indicate effects (p<0.05) of dietary protein sources on digestible protein (FM, 17.84%; SPC, 16.72%, and SBM, 18.13%) and on total nitrogen excretion (TNE, $g/kg\;BW^{0.75}/d$) in which pigs fed with SBM-based feed had TNE values that were 5.36% and 3.72% greater than SPC and FM, respectively. In the Exp. II, there was difference (p<0.01) between sexes in the pre-starter I and starter phases, and total period in average daily feed intake (ADFI), which were greater in females, and between the protein sources, ADFI, final weight and daily weight gain. For urea in the pre-starter II and starter phases and glucose in the pre-starter II phase, there was a difference (p<0.05) between protein sources and between sexes, in starter phase in urea concentrations (females: 57.11 mg/dL and males: 50.60 mg/dL). Conclusion: The use of SBM as only protein source influences larger TNE ($g/kg\;BW^{0.75}/d$), reduces the growth performance of piglets and increases plasma urea concentrations in prestarter II phase.

The experiment was designed as a 3 × 3 × 2 factorial arrangement of treatments, including (i) pomegranate peel (zero, 4%, and 8 percent), (ii) oxidized soybean oil (zero, 2%, and 4 percent), and (iii) alpha-tocopherol (zero and 200 mg/kg). Supplementation of 8% pomegranate peel in diets significantly decreased the growth performance of broiler chickens. The supplementation of 4% oxidized oil in diets significantly reduced body weight gain and Feed intake whole experimental period (p < 0.05). The results showed that supplementation of 4% pomegranate peel in the diet was associated with low aspartate transaminase (AST), alanine transaminase, and malondialdehyde (MDA). However, 4% pomegranate peel increased the total antioxidant capacity (TAC) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activities. The supplemental 4% oxidized oil increased the serum AST, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and MDA concentrations. TAC, SOD, and Catalase (CAT) activities were affected by 4% oxidized oil and alpha-tocopherol. The use of oxidized oil and vitamin E decreased MDA concentration. The serum glucose and globulin concentrations were significantly lower in the 8% pomegranate peel. The results showed that supplementation with 4% pomegranate peel in diets reduced serum low-density lipoprotein (LDL). The inclusion of 4% oxidized oil in diets reduced serum glucose and increased the blood lipid concentration such as triglyceride, cholesterol and LDL. Vitamin E supplementation reduced the serum cholesterol and LDL concentrations. The use of 8% pomegranate peel reduced red blood cell (RBC), hemoglobin, and packed cell value (PCV). The results indicated that supplementation with 8% pomegranate peel and 4% oxidized oil in diets decreased the immunoglobulin concentration in broilers. In addition, it was found that the inclusion of 4% pomegranate peel in diets resulted in higher IgG, IgM and total immunoglobulin. Pomegranate peel supplementation significantly decreased meat MDA concentration. Supplementation of 4% oxidized oil increased MDA of meat (p < 0.05). Vitamin E supplementation (200 mg/kg) significantly decreased MDA of meat (p < 0.05). Consequently, the results of this experiment showed that supplementation with 4% pomegranate peel had beneficial effects on broiler chickens. It was also found that feeding 2% oxidized oil in diets had no adverse effect on broilers.

Objective: The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effects of daily feed intake during the laying period on embryonic myogenic differentiation 1 (MYOD1), myogenic factor 5 (MYF5), and myogenic factor 6 (MYF6) gene expression in genetically fat and lean lines of chickens. Methods: An experiment in a 2×2 factorial design was conducted with two dietary intake levels (100% and 75% of nutrition recommendation) and two broiler chicken lines (fat and lean). Two lines of hens (n = 384 for each line) at 23th week of age were randomly divided into 4 treatments with 12 replicates of 16 birds. The experiment started at 27th week of age (5% egg rate) and ended at 54th week of age. Hatched eggs from the medium laying period were collected. Real time polymerase chain reaction analysis was used to analyse the MYOD1, MYF5, and MYF6 mRNA levels of E7, E9, E11, E13, and E15 body tissues and E17, E19, and E21 chest and thigh muscle samples. Results: The results indicated that there were significant effects of line, dietary intake, and interactions between them on MYOD1, MYF5, and MYF6 gene mRNA expression levels in embryonic tissues. Low daily feed intake did not change the expression trend of MYOD1 mRNA in either line, but changed the peak values, especially in lean line. Low daily feed intake altered the trend in MYF5 mRNA expression level in both lines and apparently delayed its onset. There was no apparent effect of low daily feed intake on the trends of MYF6 mRNA expression levels in either line, but it significantly changed the values on many embryonic days. Conclusion: Maternal nutrient restriction affects myogenesis and is manifested in the expression of embryonic MYOD1, MYF5, and MYF6 genes. Long term selection for fat deposition in broiler chickens changes the pattern and intensity of myogenesis.

Five experiments were conducted using finishing pigs (PIC L326 sires $\times$ C15 dams) to examine the effects of expander operating conditions on nutrient digestibility in finishing pigs. The effects of different expanding conditions (0, 11.7, 24.4, $32.5kg/cm^2$) for corn-SBM based diets (Exp. 1), wheat meddlings diet (Exp. 2), sorghum-SBM based diets (Exp. 3) and wheat-SBM based diet (Exp. 4). Exp. 5 was conducted as a $2{\times}4$ factorial arrangement and factors examined were 2 soy products (raw soybean and SBM) and 4 expanding conditions (0, 14.1, 28.1, $42.2kg/cm^2$). In experiment 1, total production rates (p>0.10) were similar among treatments. The amount of fines decreased (cubic effect, p<0.001) as cone pressure was increased from 0 to $11.7kg/cm^2$, with smaller differences as cone pressure was further increased to $35.2kg/cm^2$. Nutrient digestibilities increased (p<0.02) as the feed was subjected to higher cone pressures. Digestibilities of DM, N, and GE were maximized at $24.4kg/cm^2$ cone pressure. The DE of the diet expanded at 24.4 and $35.2kg/cm^2$ increased by 172 and 109 kcal/kg, respectively, compared to the diet processed at $0kg/cm^2$ cone pressure. In experiment 2, total production and screened pellets production rates were similar among the processing treatments (p>0.21). The amount of fines decreased (quadratic effect, p<0.03) by 9 kg/h as cone pressure was increased from 0 to $11.7kg/cm^2$. Digestibilities of DM (p<0.02), N (p<0.001), and GE (p<0.002) were increased as cone pressure was increased from 0 to $35.2kg/cm^2$. DM, N, and GE digestibility in the pigs fed the midds-based diet increased by 8, 13, and 10%, respectively, at the highest processing cone pressure compared to the diets without any cone pressure. In experiment 3, the conditioned mash moistures for the treatments were numerically similar around 15% moisture. As the expander cone pressure was increased from 0 to $11.7kg/cm^2$, energy consumption for the pellet mill decreased (quadratic effect, p<0.004) from 14.1 to 12.0 kWh/t. Dry matter and gross energy digestibility increased (cubic effects, p<0.006) as cone pressure was increased from 0 to $35.2kg/cm^2$ with the largest improvement occurring as cone pressure was increased from 0 to $11.7kg/cm^2$. Nitrogen digestibility increased (cubic effect, p<0.001) from 78.3 to 81.0% as the feed was subjected to the higher cone pressures, with N digestibility being maximized at $24.4kg/cm^2$ cone pressure. The DE of the diet increased (cubic effect, p<0.001) by 225 kcal/kg as cone pressure was increased from 0 to $11.7kg/cm^2$. In experiment 4, pellet moisture decreased and moisture loss increased as cone pressure was increased from 0 to $35.2kg/cm^2$. Also, starch gelatinization of the wheat-based diets increased from 16.8 to 49.1% as the diets were processed at 0 and $35.2kg/cm^2$ cone pressure. Nutrient digestibilities were not affected (p>0.18) by any increase in cone pressure. In experiment 5, pellet moisture decreased as cone pressure was increased 0 to $35.2kg/cm^2$. The amount of moisture loss for the diets expanded at $42.2kg/cm^2$ was 3.0 and 3.8% for the SBM and raw soybean (RB) diets, respectively. Starch gelatinization for the SBM diets were 19% greater than the RB diets. The RB diets had lower DM, N and GE digestibilities as compared to the SBM diets. The DE of the RB diets were lower (p<0.02) than the SBM diets. DM (p<0.06), N (p<0.02), and GE (p<0.001) digestibilities of the dietary treatments increased as cone pressure was increased 0 to $42.2kg/cm^2$.

본 연구에서 고형침전물이 누적되어 쌓이는 것을 효과적으로 부유시키고 혼합하여 미세한 공기방울이 액비에 접촉함으로서 발효촉진을 도모하고자 폭기식 2류체 제트노즐 설계조건 구명시험을 실시하여 1차 노즐과 2차 노즐 구경비 설정 및 1차 노즐에서의 액체의 적정 유속을 설정하고, CFD 이용 유동해석에 의한 노즐 분사구 위치를 설정하였다. 이 결과를 토대로 가축분뇨 액비저장조 침전물 교반장치를 제작하여 농가에 많이 보급되고 있는 200 ton 규모의 액비저장조에 설치하여 침전물 교반 성능을 평가한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 침전물 교반기의 설계조건 구명을 위해 2류체 노즐을 공시하여 시험한 결과 1차 노즐과 2차 노즐의 구경비를 1:2로 한 상태에서 1차 노즐의 유속을 12.3 m/s 이상으로 하여야 기체 기포의 미세화가 가능한 것으로 판단되었다. 2. 컴퓨터유동해석을 한 결과 노즐의 설치간격을 같게 하는 것이 노즐당 담당부피를 같게 설치하는 것보다 효율적인 것으로 분석되었다. 3. 설계요인 시험과 유동해석을 토대로 4개의 노즐이 일자형 관에 설치된 침전물교반 장치를 제작 200톤 저장조에 설치 가동시험을 실시하였다. 먼저, 전체 평균 TS와 VS가 각각 23.4 g/L, 15.5 g/L인데 반하여, 교반 전 40 cm 이상 높이의 TS 및 VS가 평균 21.1 g/L, 13.3 g/L으로 교반기를 가동하지 않는 경우는 많은 고형물이 바닥에 가라앉아 있음을 알 수 있다. 또한, 가동 후 45분이 경과한 후에는 TS와 VS 모두 전체 평균과 동일한 값을 나타내고 있어 침전물들이 충분히 부유되어 혼합됨을 확인할 수 있다. 액체제트 분사교반 45 분후에 평균 23.5 g/L, 15.5 g/L로, 액체-기체 2류체 노즐 사용시 23.6 g/L, 14.9 g/L로 증가한 것은 교반 전에 바닥에 침전되어 있던 고형물들을 부유시켜 교반 혼합하는 것이 가능한 것으로 판단되었으며, 호기발효를 고려하지 않은 균일도 측면에서는 액체제트를 사용한 것이 보다 균일한 것으로 나타났다. 4. 침전물 교반기의 가동주기를 알아보기 위해 가축분뇨의 교반을 중지하였을 때 2시간 후에도 0.4 m 높이에서 TS 및 VS가 증가하고 있어 교반정지 간격을 2시간으로 주어도 교반기 운영에는 큰 지장이 없을 것으로 판단된다.

식물의 조직배양에서 가장 널리 이용되는 MS 배지 등의 무기성분은 종속영양에 적합하도록 조성되었다. 그러므로 이들 배지가 혼합영양이나 독립영양 배양에는 부적합 할 수 도 있다. 광혼합영양 미세증식에서 배지에 첨가되는 당의 수준은 낮추고 배양기의 광과 $CO_2$ 수준은 올리며, 광합성의 의한 탄소의 획득을 증진시키기 위해 열록소가 있는 절편체를 이용한다. Factorial 실험에서 유기물 (OM, $m^{-3}$ 배지당 각각 0.5g의 thiamine, nicotinic acid 및 pyridoxine과 100g ${\cdot}$ $m^{-3}$ myo-inositiol)의 첨가(+)와 생략(_) 및 세 가지 수준의 당(0, 15 및 30 kg ${\cdot}$ $m^{-3}$)이 감자 소식물체의 생장에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 단엽단절 절편체를 0.1${\times}$$10^{-4}m^{-3}$의 MS 아가(8 kg ${\cdot}$ $m^{-3}$) 배지(증기소독 전 pH 5.80)배지가 담긴 유리 시험관(100mm${\times}$25mm)에 치상하여 직경 6mm의 가스투과 필터(5.1 air exchanges ${\cdot}$$h^{-1}$)가 부착된 투명한 필름으로 봉하여 배양하였다. 배양체는 27일간 $23^{\circ}C$, 50% RH에서 16 h ${\cdot}$ $d^{-1}$의 명기 동안에 cool white 형광등으로 130${\mu}mol\;{\codt}\;m\;{\codt}\;s^{-1}$ PPFD의 광과 350-450${\mu}mol\;{\codt}\;mol^{-1}의CO_2$가 공급되는 배양실에서 배양되었다. 유기물이 공급된 처리(+OM)와 공급되지 않은 처리(-OM)에서 감자 소식물체의 생육은 유사하였으나 배지의 pH는 후자에서 0.2 더 낮았다. 배지에 첨가된 당의 수준이 증가할수록 건물중, % 건물율 및 경경은 증진된데 반해 신초와 뿌리의 건물중 비율, 엽면적, 건물중당 엽록소 함량 및 배지의 pH는 감소하였다. 유기물과 당 수준간의 상호작용도 신초길이와 배지 pH에서 관찰되었다. 이상의 결과로부터 광도와 $CO_2$농도를 높인 광혼압영양배양에서 감자 소식물체의 생장에는 배지에 첨가되는 당은 유익하지만 그 이외의 유기물은 첨가하지 않아도 악영향이 없다는 것은 나타낸다.

본 연구는 저온처리기간, 온도 및 광의 유무가 초롱꽃 4 종의 생장과 개화에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 모주로 사용된 고성종인 자주초롱꽃, 왜성종인 애기초롱꽃 2 품종과 이들의 교잡 육성된 '직녀', '견우' $F_1$ 2 품종의 조직배양묘를 식물재료로 사용하였다. 조직배양묘는 광도가 약 $75{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^2{\cdot}s^{-1}$이고 온도가 $25^{\circ}C$인 기내에서 5주 동안 발근시켰다. 광의 유무는 알루미늄 호일로 포장한 암처리와 명처리(약 $10{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^2{\cdot}s^{-1}$ PPFD)를 사용하였고, 저온처리기간은 3, 6, 또는 9주로 하여 4와 $25^{\circ}C$ 온도에서 저장하였다. 저온처리 후 식물을 10 cm 화분에 상토를 채워 이식하여 생장조절챔버에서 순화시켜 온실로 옮겨 재배하였다. 4종 중 자주초롱꽃에서 생존율이 가장 높았다. 생존율은 암처리보다 명처리에서 더 높았다. 기내에서 6주 이상 저장된 처리구는 생존율이 감소하였다. 4종을 실험한 결과 개화를 한 품종은 '직녀'로 저장기간 3주, 명처리, $25^{\circ}C$에서 62.8%의 높은 개화율을 보였다. 개화는 온도, 저장기간, 그리고 광의 유무에 따라 영향이 있었다. 저장기간 3주, 암조건, $4^{\circ}C$에서 저장한 처리에서 현저하게 개화소요일수가 단축되고 개화특성도 좋았다. 이 결과는 개화를 위해 저온을 요구하는 것은 질적인 것보다 양적임을 암시한다. 이 실험은 조직배양묘를 사용하여 저온처리를 하고 순화하는 과정에서 많이 고사하였으므로, 식물의 개체수를 더 늘려서 이 결론을 확인할 필요가 있다.

To investigate the effect of dietary Acanthopanax senticosus polysaccharide (ASPS) on growth performance, immunity, blood parameters and mRNA expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines in immunologically challenged piglets, an experiment employing $2{\times}2$ factorial arrangement concerning dietary ASPS treatment (0 or 800 mg/kg) and immunological challenge (lipopolysaccharide [LPS] or saline injection) was conducted with 64 crossbred piglets (weaned at 28 d of age, average initial body weight of $7.25{\pm}0.21kg$) assigned to two dietary ASPS treatments with 8 replicates of 4 pigs each. Half of the piglets of per dietary treatment were injected with LPS or saline on d 14. Blood samples were obtained at 3 h after immunological injection on d 14 and piglets were slaughtered to obtain spleen samples on d 21. Dietary ASPS did not affect average daily gain (ADG) (p = 0.634), average daily feed intake (ADFI) (p = 0.655), and gain:feed (p = 0.814) prior to LPS challenge. After LPS challenge, for LPS-challenged pigs those fed ASPS had higher ADG and ADFI than the non-supplemented group (p<0.05), and an interaction between $LPS{\times}ASPS$ was observed on the two indices (p<0.05). Dietary ASPS improved lymphocyte proliferation among saline-injected and LPS-injected pigs (p<0.05). Interaction between $LPS{\times}ASPS$ was also revealed on lymphocyte proliferation (p<0.05). Circulatory concentration of IgG was influenced neither by ASPS (p = 0.803) or LPS (p = 0.692), nor their interaction (p = 0.289). Plasma concentration and spleen mRNA expression of interleukin-1beta (IL-$1{\beta}$), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-${\alpha}$ were induced to increase (p<0.05) by LPS challenge, in contrast, these indices were decreased by dietary ASPS (p<0.05), and interactions were found on these cytokines (p<0.05). For LPS-challenged pigs, dietary ASPS also reduced the circulating concentration and spleen mRNA expression of IL-$1{\beta}$, IL-6 as well as TNF-${\alpha}$ (p<0.05). The interaction between $LPS{\times}ASPS$ was also observed on the circulating concentration of insulin-like growth factor-I, ${\alpha}$-acid glycoprotein (${\alpha}$-AGP), nonesterified fatty acid, and glucose (p<0.05). The results of this study demonstrate that dietary ASPS can modulate the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines during immunological challenge, which might enable piglets to achieve better growth performance.
