  • As a series of systematic classification of paramphistomes, in the first step, paramphistomes in the lumen and reticulum were collected on 170 Korean catties (2∼3 years age, male) slaughtered at Jeonju abattoir from July, 1984 to September, 1985 and were classified by means of morphology of the worms. Afterwards, the karyotype of Paramphistomum explanatum (Creplin, 1849) which is the common in Korean cattle was detected by means of modified air-drying method from testis cells of the worm. The following is a brief summary of the leading facts gained through the experiment. 1. Most of the cattle slaughtered at the abattoir were infected with paramphistomes. The 5 species of the worms were detected on 170 Korean cattle and the worm burden per head was from 2 to 784(on the average 170) worms, 120(70.59%) heads out of them involving 2∼100 worms. In 28,900 individuals of paramphistomes obtained on 170 Korean cattle, appearance rates of various worms were as follows : 49.74% in P. explanatum, 48.08% in P. cervi, 0.98% in Orthocoelium orthocoelium, 0.89% in Fischoederius cobboldi and 0.14% in Cotylophoron cotylcphorum. 2. The chromosome number of 620 P. explanatum in the haploid and diploid cells was n=9 and 2n=18, and abundant cells in meiotic division were observed; 1,420 haploid and 38 diploid cells were reliable. Nine pairs of mitotic chromosomes were homologous and the chromosomes were composed of aye medium-sized metacentrics(m), subtelocentrics(st) or submetacentrics(sm) and four smallsized subtelocentrics(st) or submetacentrics(am), while meiotic metaphase chromosomes were composed of five medium and four small-sized. 3. The haploid of the testis cells showed C-band in the centromeric region from 8 of them, whereas the remaining chromosome No. 5 included heterochromatin on the tip region, and chromosomes No. 3 and No. 7 showed a remarkable C-band distinguished from other chromosomes.

  • The objective of this study is to determine developmental pattern and cell allocation to the ICM and TE in haploid and diploid of embryos following parthenogenetic activation and in vitro fertilization. The incidence of development to blastocyst was lower in the combined treatments of ethanol stimulation and cytochalasin B as compared to the control. However, the combined ethanol stimulation and cytochalasin B treatment (diploid) accelerated development to the blastocyst as compared to the ethanol treatment alone (haploid). Significantly reduction in the average number of total cells and ICM was observed in the parthenotes alone as compared to fetilized embryos, but those of combined ethanol stimulation and cytochalasin B treatment embryos were significantly increased as compared to ethanol alone embryos. These results suggested that the ploidy affects preimplantation developmental patters and cell allocation to the ICM and TE in the porcine.

  • Yeast surface-displayed antibody libraries provide an efficient and quantitative screening resource for given antigens, but suffer from typically modest library sizes owing to low yeast transformation efficiency. Yeast mating is an attractive method for overcoming the limit of yeast transformation to construct a large, combinatorial antibody library, but the optimal conditions have not been reported. Here, we report a large synthetic human Fab (antigen binding fragment) yeast surface-displayed library generated by stepwise optimization of yeast mating conditions. We first constructed HC (heavy chain) and LC (light chain) libraries, where all of the six CDRs (complementarity-determining regions) of the variable domains were diversified mimicking the human germline antibody repertoires by degenerate codons, onto single frameworks of VH3-23 and $V{\kappa}1$-16 germline sequences, in two haploid cells of opposite mating types. Yeast mating conditions were optimized in the order of cell density, media pH, and cell growth phase, yielding a mating efficiency of ~58% between the two haploid cells carrying HC and LC libraries. We constructed two combinatorial Fab libraries with CDR-H3 of 9 or 11 residues in length with colony diversities of more than $10^9$ by one round of yeast mating between the two haploid HC and LC libraries, with modest diversity sizes of ${\sim}10^7$. The synthetic human Fab yeast-displayed libraries exhibited relative amino acid compositions in each position of the six CDRs that were very similar to those of the designed repertoires, suggesting that they are a promising source for human Fab antibody screening.

  • One of the most important species, Brassica rapa encompasses a variety of commercial vegetables, such as the Chinese cabbage, pak choi and oilseed crops. The LP08 of yellow sarson (Brassica rapa ssp, tricolaris) have a distinct morphology, with yellow seed color and a unique tetralocular ovary. LP21 of pak choi (Brassica rapa ssp, chinensis) have a dark brown seed color and bilocular ovary. In this study, we generated double haploid plants by crossing the LP08 (maternal variety) and LP21 (paternal variety), using microspore culture. A total of 66 accessions with various morphological characteristics were used for content analysis of flavonoids. The three flavonoids, quercetin, naringenin and kaempferol, showed differing contents in the two crossing parents. The Chinese cabbage type 'Chiifu' was used as the control. The highest accumulation of total flavonoids was observed in LP08. The lowest mean total flavonoids were found in 'Chiifu'. Among the 66 DH accessions, the quercetin contents of 18 accessions showed higher content than LP08. Kaempferol content was also high, and was found to be 79.7% of the total flavonoid content. Naringenin content was low at 2.8%, and was not detected in 22 accessions. Interestingly, the quercetin content positively correlated with the kaempferol content. These results can be used to identify genetic locus and genes related to useful traits. Phenotypic analysis of 66 DH accessions can further be used for natural selection of good breeding materials in B. rapa.

  • Treatment conditions for the induced diploid gynogenesis, a maternal-exclusive form of artificial parthenogenetic reproduction, were optimized in bagrid catfish (Leiocassis ussuriensis, Siluriformes). Optimal amounts of ultraviolet (UV) irradiation for the genetic inactivation of spermatozoa in bagrid catfish and Pseudobagrus fulvidraco were proven to be ranged from 3,600 to 4,800 $ergs/mm^2$ based on the examination of viability of embryos and haploid incidence. Haploid embryos were restored to diploidy by preventing the extrusion of the second polar body using cold shock treatment. Thermal treatments (4 or $6^{\circ}C$ for 30, 40 or 50 min) were carried out 3, 5 or 7 min post insemination. Best scores for embryo viability (38.6% of total eggs taken) and incidence of normal diploidy (87.9% of hatched larvae) were observed at the embryo group treated at $4^{\circ}C$ for 40 min, 5 min after insemination. Restoration of gynogenetic diploidy was confirmed based on the absence of haploid syndrome, cell size and/or nucleolar organizing region (NOR) counts.

  • This study was carried out to select cadmium resistant cell lines from leaf-derived calli of diploid and haploid of Nicotiana tabacum cv. BY4, for understanding adaptation mechanism of plants in cadmium contaminated environment. suspended cell clumps were plated onto selection medium containing 0 to 2,000 $\mu$M cadmium. Cadmium resistant colonies were formed on the selection medium after 3 or 4 weeks of culture. The minimum inhibition concentration (MIC) of cadmium on colony formation were 300 $\mu$M in diploid and 200 $\mu$M in haploid plants, respectively. In order to test the resistance to cadmium, selected cell line on MIC were transferred to medium containing high concentration of cadmium. The selected cell lines, especially haploid cell line, were resistant an the high concentration of cadmium. And dry weight, ash weight, and cadmium contents of cell were increased. These results indicated that the selected cell lines showed higher resistance of cadmium than control cells, and haploid plant is more resistant than diploid plant on medium with cadmium.

  • The anthers of late uninucleate microspore or early binucleate microspore stage of Paeonia suffruticosa Andr. (economic tree) were cultured on the modified Murashige and Skoog's medium suppliment with Keinetin, 2,4-D, and NAA for inducing haploid plants. The results are as follows; 1. Callus were induced from both anther locule and anther wall, where that from anther locule was identified as haploid. 2. Among 2,000 anthers cultured, fourteen haploid callus were developed. These haploid callus were clearly identified to be originated from the microspore in anther locule. 3. Diploid callus were induced only 0.5 percent from the callus of endothelium of anther wall, septium of two neighboring anther locule, parenchyma tissues of connectives and or anther locules. 4. In the anther locule of Paeonia suffruticosa Andr. cultured in medium, swollen microspores, polynucleate microspores, multicellurar pollen grains, or callus mass was frequently observed. And the haploids were seemed to be caused by the callus originated from the reduced microspore.

  • Calli were induced on MS medium supplemented with 0.5 mg/L 2,4-D by using the leaf explants of haploid which were derived from the diploid and haploid of Nicotiana tabacum cv BY4. These calli were subcultured on MS medium with the combination of 2.0 mg/L 2,4-D, 1.0 mg/L kinetin and 0.1 mg/L BAP. Cell propagation of diploid plants were good in a combination of 2.0 mg/L 2,4-D, 0.1mg/L BAP in vitro conditions, suspension cultures were conducted in equal condition. Homogenized suspension cultured cells were smeared 2.0 mL each on MS medium with 0~100 $\mu$M PFP, to select the resistant colony to PFP, and were examined after 10d, 20d and 30d. Measurment of fresh weight of cells after 30d of culture shows that with more concentration of PFP in medium the fresh weight of the cells decreased. In case of diploid, selected callus was the highest in vitro treated with 5 $\mu$M PFP. It was higher than control until 100 $\mu$M PFP. The active degree of catalase was the highest in vitro with 5 $\mu$M PFP but the lowest in vitro with 10 $\mu$M PFP on the other hand, in case of haploid plant, the active degree of peroxidase and catalase was the highest in vitro treated with 50 $\mu$M PFP. It's sure that enzyme active degree of between diploid and haploid had big differences.
