  • Three pseudo-silver eels (PS1~PS3) were found by analysis of silvering index and biological characteristics of 454 eels, Anguilla japonica, collected from the 9 sites of Korean fresh and brackish waters from September 2014 to August 2015. Two specimens (PS1~PS2) from Lake Soyang and one (PS3) from Geum river estuary were identified as pseudo-silver eel showing a large difference between silvering index and GSI. The external morphology of the pseudo-silver eels were in S2 (late silver eel) stage, but they were classified into Y1 (yellow eel) and Y2 (late yellow eel) stage in GSI, Gut index, Eye index and Y2 stage in gonadal development and mean egg diameter.

  • Lycopersicon peruvianum shows a gametophytic self-incompatibility (GSI). GSI is controlled by a single locus (S locus) with multiple alleles. S ribonucleases encoded in S alleles cosegregate with their phenotypes of GSI in genetic cross. To understand the genetic role of S allele in L peruvianum, two large genomic fragments isolated previously were analyzed with total genomic DNAs from several tomato lines generated by cross-pollination. Southern blot analysis with the S allele fragments as probes revealed that the flanking region of S allele contained the highly homologous regions. It is speculated that they may play an important role to prevent genetic cross by self-pollination.

  • 북방산개구리의 성체 수컷들 년중 채집하여 gonadosomatic index(GSI)와 정자형성과 정 및 정소내 testosterone양의 변화를 조사하였다 정자형성은 8월에 시작되어 9월에 가장 활발하게 진행되었으며 이때 GSI도 가장 높았고 세정관의 단면적도 가장 넓었다 번식기(2월) 이후 일정기간 동안에는(3월-7월) 정자형성이 정지되었으며, GSI나 세정관의 단면적도 최저치를 나타내었다. 정소내 testosterone양은 11월부터 급격히 증가하여 2월에 가장 높았으며 3월부터 급격히 감소되어 10월 까지 매우 낮은 농도를 유지하였다. Interstitial cell의 수도 동면기간이 찰동기 보다 훨씬 많았으며 핵의 크기도 동면기간이 훨씬 컷다. 따라서 testosterone의 생성 증가와 interstitial cell의 활성화가 일치함을 알 수 있었다. 본 결과들은 북방산개구리의 정 소에서는 정자형성과정이 불연속적으로 일어난다는 것과 2월 이후에는 testosterone의 양이 급격히 줄어드는 것으로 보아 이 개구리의 번식기가 2월임을 확인해 주고 있다.

  • Gonadal maturation and annual reproductive cycle of the cultured scallop, Patinopecten yessoensis from eastern waters near of Kangwon-do province, Korea were studied on the basis of monthly variation of gonadosomatic indices (GSI) and histological observations of gonadal tissue. During the experimental period, water temperature at the depth of 20m and sunshine duration per day were ranged from $5.3^{\circ}C\;to\;18.0^{\circ}C$ and 9.4 to 14.6 hours, respectively. GSI values of femal were in a wide range from $2.8\pm0.37(August)\;to\;22.66\pm4.38(April)$. GSI values began to increase in March and reached the maxium in April, then decreased repidly. GSI values of male were in a range from $2.04\pm0.80(August)\;to\;20.46\pm1.49(April)$ and were same tendency with female's. Digestive diverticula indices (DDI) of both sex reached the maximum values in December, then deceased gradually until September. Contrary to GSI, adductor muscle indices (AMI) of both sex were the minium values in April, but began to increase rapidly until July and reached $47.71\pm3.17(female)\;and\;48.70\pm3.55(male)$. In the scallp collected hermaphroditic gonads were found. Monthly changes of oocyte diameter were in a range from 11.3 um(October) to 73.3um (April) and nuclear diameters were in a range from 8.3um (September) to 35.3um (April), similar tendency with each other. The changes in number of ovarian tubules were reciprocal tendency with those of oocyte diameter and monthly number of ovarian tubules per $\textrm{mm}^2$ in the tissue perpatation was in a range from 51 (April) to 175 (August). As the results, the annual reproductive cycle of the cultured scallolp from eastern waters of Korea could be classified into five successive stages : multiplicative (October), growing (November to February), mature (March and April), spawning (April to June) and recovery (July to September) in female ; multiplicative (October and November), growing (December and January), mature (February to April), spawning (April to June) and recovery (July to September) in male.

  • Freshwater-adapted maturing chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) involuntarily captured by stationary nets in Yang-yang seashore areas were transferred to freshwater in an outdoor raceway tank at Yeongdong Inland Fisheries Research Institute, NFRDI, Yang-yang, Gangwon, Korea and kept over 1 day until the start of the experiments. The freshwater-adapted females were single-injected intraperitoneally with gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogue, (GnRH-a: $70\;{\mu}g/kg$ body weight, BW) alone or combined with a dopamine receptor antagonist, pimozide($700\;{\mu}g/kg$ BW). Although gonadosomatic indices [GSI, (gonad weight/BW)${\times}100$] did not show significant changes in both 2004 and 2005, GSI of GnRH-a-injected fish during the 2005 trial slightly increased on the 5th and 7th days post-injection compared to those of vehicle treated fish. Hepatosomatic indices [HSI, (liver weight/BW)${\times}100$] of fish injected with GnRH-a alone and combined with pimozide decreased significantly on the 7th day post-injection in 2004(P<0.05). In 2005 trials, HSI was significantly reduced in GnRH-a treated fish on the 7th day post-injection (P<0.05). Pimozide-injected fish showed a pattern with increase of GSI and decrease of HSI, without significant differences. Taken together, these results suggest that at least in part hypothalamic hormones and dopamine receptor antagonist may induce sexual maturation in freshwater-adapted maturing chum salmon. It remains to evaluate these preliminary results by further researches.

  • The urbanization affects significantly on a natural water circulation system by increasing the imperviousness rate. It is also negatively affecting on urban temperature, environmental pollution, water quality, and aqua-ecosystems. The Korea MOE (Ministry of Environment) adapted a new environmental policy in order to reduce the impact of urbanization, which is the Green Stormwater Infrastructure (GSI) program. The GSI can be achieved by protecting conservable green spaces, enlarging more green spaces, and constructing more permeable pavements. The GSI is including many different techniques such as bioretention, rain garden, infiltration trench and so on. Also It is the infrastructures using natural mechanisms of soils, microorganisms, plants and animals on a water circulation system and pollutant reduction. In this research, a multi functional GSI technology with infiltration-filtration mechanisms has been developed and performed lab-scale tests to evaluate the performances about infiltration rate restoration and pollutant reduction. The most of pollutants including metals, organics and particulates were reduced about 50~90% due to water infiltration and storage functions. The clogging was found when the TSS loading rate was reached on $8.3{\sim}9.0kg/m^2$, which value is higher than the values in literatures. It means the new technology can show high performances with low maintenances.

  • The gonadosomatic index (GSI), fatness, ovarian development, first sexual maturity, and fecundity of the Korean anchovy Coilia nasus were investigated by histological observations and morphometric analysis from January to December, 2007. The GSI and fatness began to increase in February, and reached the maximum in June when the ovary was getting mature and spawning occurred. Thereafter these parametes rapidly decreased in July when spawning occurred. Therefore, monthly changes in the GSI and fatness were closely related to ovarian maturation and spawning. The duration of ovarian development in females can be classified into five successive stages: early growing stage (February to March), late growing stage (March to April), mature stage (May to June), ripe and spent stage (June to July), and recovery and resting stage (December to January). Maturation and spawning of this species occurred between June and July during the period of high seawater temperature-long day length. Percentages of first sexual maturity in female individuals were over 50% for fish ranging 24.1 to 27.0 cm in total length, and 100% for fish over 30.1 cm in total length. The number of total eggs and mature eggs in the absolute fecundity were increased with the increase of total length and body weight, respectively. The number of total eggs and mature eggs in relative fecundity were also proportional to total length, but rather these numbers decreased in the maximum body weight (126.0${\sim}$150.0 g).

  • The ovary of the spotted flounder Verasper variegatus is a conical bag in shape and is bilateral structure develops lengthily from the posterior of the abdomen to the end of the anal fin. The testis also is bilateral in structure, usually located in small size in the abdomen. In females, the gonadosomatic index (GSI) showed very low from March to July, and then began to increase from August, thereafter reached the maximum in January through out the year. In males, the GSI reached the maximum (1.7) in January through out the year, as seen in females. Compared with the male GSI in other fishes, the maximum GSI of this species were very lower than those of other fishes. According to the distributions of egg diameter in the spawning season, it is assumed that the spotted flounder spawn four times or more in the spawning season. The total length of female and male reached 50% first sexual maturity were 42.0~44.0 and 28.0~30.0cm, respectively and total length of female and male reached 100% maturity were 44.0 and 32.0cm, respectively. The reproductive cycle could be classified into four successive developmental stages: growing stage (August~October), mature stage (November~December), ripe and spent stage (December~February), degenerative and resting stage (March~July).
