Nucleotide sequence in internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions of ribosomal DNA among mulberry varieties (Morus species) were analyzed in order to identify the possibility of classification for the species. The variations in the ITS regions were compared among 9 mulberry varieties and one variety of Cudrania species as an outgroup. ITS 1 region of the varieties ranging from 219 to 220 bp in length was 49-50 bp shorter than ITS 2 region. Of 510 sites in the ITS 1 and 2 regions, 148 sites were potentially variable, of which 52% and 48% sites were distributed in ITS 1 and ITS 2 regions, respectively. By pairwise comparisons on the nucleotide sequences in the ITS 1 and 2 regions among 9 mulberry varieties, they were classified into 5 groups. Divergence values of the sequences, however, were considerably low ranging from 0 to 1.3%. Especially, there was no divergence among Backasipmunja, Chungilppong and Milsungpong and Jungyasang, Ssarigol II and Yulbon, respectively.

In this study, in an effort to develop a method for the molecular detection of Tricholoma matsutake in Korea from other closely related Tricholomataceae, a species-specific PCR primer pair, TmF and TmR, was designed using nuclear ribosomal intertranscribed spacer (ITS) sequences. The DTmF and DTmR sequences were 5'-CCTGACGCCAATCTTTTCA-3' and 5'- GGAGAGCAGACTTGTGAGCA-3', respectively. The PCR primers reliably amplified only the ITS sequences of T. matsutake, and not those of other species used in this study.

본 연구는 한국산 괭이밥 4분류군과 도입종 1분류군의 9개체를 대상으로 핵 리보솜 DNA인 5.8S, ITS1 그리고 ITS2 지역 염기서열의 분류학적 특정을 알아보기 위해 수행되었다. 군외군으로 GenBank에 축적되어 있는 16분류군의 동일지역 염기서열도 같이 정렬하여 사용하였다. 정렬 된 ITS 구간의 염기서열 길이는 679 bp 이었다. 분류군 별 유사도 및 염기서열 분기와 계통학적 및 통계학적인 분석 등의 결과는 염기서열 특징이 본 속의 분류에 유용한 것으로 나타났다. 유경종간 및 무경종간에 염기서열 유사도는 95%와 89%로 높게 나타나는 반면, 유경종과 무경종 사이는 64~69%로 비교적 낮게 나타난다. 염기서열 분기에서도 유경종과 무경종간에는 0.36~0.42로 높게 나타나며, 유경종과 유경종 또는 무경종과 무경종간에는 0.04~0.06으로 낮게 나타났다. 계통학적으로 유경종과 무경종 집단은 병계원으로 나타났으며, 두 집단은 각각 신빙성이 높은 단일 계통군을 형성한다. 정렬된 염기서열은 통계학적으로 유의성이 있으며, Duncan 사후검정에서 자주괭이밥은 한국산 분류군들에서 분리되었다.

소나무속내 속생 잎의 수가 1개인 종류와 한 개체에서 2~3개의 속생 잎 수를 갖는 종류의 기원을 밝히고자 ITS DNA 지역의 염기서열을 조사하였다. 또한 속생 잎 수 변이가 출현하는 지역에서 생육하는 소나무, 리기다소나무 그리고 잣나무 등의 동일지역 염기서열을 비교 조사하였다. 확인된 ITS1, 5.8S 그리고 ITS2 DNA 등 3지역의 총 길이는 종류에 따라서 580~584 염기이었으며, ITS1 지역에서 가장 변이가 크게 나타났다. 5.8S 지역은 잣나무의 2개 염기 치환을 제외하면 조사된 모든 종류에서 일치하였다. 조사된 일부 ITS1 지역은 5.8S 위쪽으로 종에 따라 181~185 염기이며, 1개 또는 2~3개의 속생 잎 수를 갖는 변이들은 소나무와 동일한 염기서열로 확인되었다. ITS2 지역은 모두 237 염기이며, 소나무와 잎 변이들의 염기서열은 일치하였다. 확인된 염기서열을 이용하여 유집분석을 수행한 결과는 소나무와 속생 잎 수 변이들이 유사도 100%로 유집되었다. 따라서 조사된 속생 잎 수 변이들은 소나무의 속생 잎 수 변이로 최종 판별되었다.

The family Ulvaceae species are difficult to distinguish from one another on the basis of morphological and cytological criteria alone. ITS2 sequences are hewn to evolve quickly and have been reported to be useful for the study of intraspecific and interspecific variation and biogeography in algae (Bakker et al., 1992). We will here describe the basic characteristics of the ITS2 sequences in Ulva and Effteromorpha to compare our result with the above previous studies. (omitted)

Seagrasses are marine angiosperms of ecological importance in providing shelter and food to aquatic species as well as maintaining the carbon cycle on earth. Phyllospadix iwatensis is a seagrass of the family Zosteraceae and is distributed along the eastern coast of Korea. The nucleotide sequences of P. iwatensis nuclear genes encoding 18S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and internal transcribed spacer-1 (ITS-1) were determined for molecular phylogenetic analysis. Genomic DNA was isolated from P. iwatensis and used for PCR amplification of 18S rRNA and ITS-1. Examination of the 18S rRNA sequence of P. iwatensis showed a close (99% similarity) relationship to Zostera noltii, another genus of Zosteraceae, but a distant (84% similarity) evolutionary relationship to other macroalgal Laminariales species. Further discrepancies found in ITS-1 nucleotide sequences between closely related species indicate that the sequence information could be used for species identification.

Two species of cultivated Phellinus sp. were identified as P. baumii by internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequence analysis. The fruit bodies of the examined strains were similar to those of naturally occurring strains, having a bracket-like form, yellow-to-orange color, and poroid hymenial surfaces. The DNA sequences of ITS region of both strains showed a homology of 99% with ITS1 to ITS2 sequences of P. (Inonotus) baumii strain PB0806.

Objectives : The original plant species of Schisandrae Fructus (O-mi-ja) is prescribed as Schisandra chinensis $B_{AILL.}$, in Korea, but S. chinensis $B_{AILL.}$ and S. sphenanthera $R_{EHD.}$ et $W_{ILS.}$ in China. Moreover, fruit of several other species in genus Schisandra also have been used as the same herbal medicines. To develop a reliable method for correct identification of Schisandrae Fructus and to evaluate the phylogenetic relationship of S. chinensis and its related species, we analyzed internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequences of nuclear ribosomal DNA (nrDNA). Methods : Twenty-four plant samples of three Schisandra species and one Kadsura species, S. chinensis $B_{AILL.}$, S. spenanthera $R_{EHD.}$ et $W_{ILS.}$, S. nigra $M_{ax.}$ and Kadsura japonica $D_{UNAL}$ were collected from each different native habitate and farm in Korea and China. The nrDNA-ITS region of each samples were amplified using ITS1 and ITS4 primer and nucleotide sequences were determined after sub-cloning into the pGEM-Teasy vector. Authentic marker nucleotides were estimated by the analysis of ClastalW based on the entire nrDNA-ITS sequence. Results : In comparative analysis of the nrDNA-ITS sequences, we found specific nucleotide sequences including indels (insertions and deletions) and substitutions to distinguish C. chinensis, S. spenanthera, S. nigra, and K. japonica. These sequence differences at corresponding positions are avaliable nucleotide markers to determine the botanical origin of O-mi-ja. Moreover, we evaluated the phylogenetic relationship of four plant species by the analysis of nrDNA-ITS sequences. Conclusions : These marker nucleotides would be useful to identify the official herbal medicines by the providing of definitive information that can identify each plant species and distinguish it from unauthentic adulterants for O-mi-ja.

Identification of Helicotylenchus species is very challenging due to phenotypic plasticity and existence of cryptic species complexes. Recently, the use of rDNA barcodes has proven to be useful for identification of Helicotylenchus. Molecular markers are a quick diagnostic tool and are crucial for discriminating related species and resolving cryptic species complexes within this speciose genus. However, DNA barcoding is not an error-free approach. The public databases appear to be marred by incorrect sequences, arising from sequencing errors, mislabeling, and misidentifications. Herein, we provide a comprehensive analysis of the newly obtained, and published DNA sequences of Helicotylenchus, revealing the potential faults in the available DNA barcodes. A total of 97 sequences (25 nearly full-length 18S-rRNA, 12 partial 28S-rRNA, 16 partial internal transcribed spacer [ITS]-rRNA, and 44 partial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I [COI] gene sequences) were newly obtained in the present study. Phylogenetic relationships between species are given as inferred from the analyses of 103 sequences of 18S-rRNA, 469 sequences of 28S-rRNA, 183 sequences of ITS-rRNA, and 63 sequences of COI. Remarks on suggested corrections of published accessions in GenBank database are given. Additionally, COI gene sequences of H. dihystera, H. asiaticus and the contentious H. microlobus are provided herein for the first time. Similar to rDNA gene analyses, the COI sequences support the genetic distinctness and validity of H. microlobus. DNA barcodes from type material are needed for resolving the taxonomic status of the unresolved taxonomic groups within the genus.

Ginseng (Panax genus) is one of the most medicinally important genera and consists of highly regarded medicines. Among the species of Panax, the ginseng species is widely known to have most medicinal quality. P. ginseng has 3 varieties, Jakyung, Chunggyung and Hwangsook, discovered in nature with different colors of stem and fruit, Jakyung has two cultivars, Yunpoong and Chunpoong. Rigorous phylogenetic analysis of these varieties and cultivars has been conducted with sequencing of rDNA region. The sequences of ITS1, ITS2 of every varieties and cultivars within P. ginseng were identical. The sequence of 5.8S rDNAs of Hwangsook variety were different from the sequences of 5.8S rDNAs of others by only one base pair at nucleotide position 14. In phylogenetic analysis and predicted RNA secondary structure study, it is assumed that evolution has proceeded from Hwangsook to other varieties. recently.
