Effects of aging treatment on the microstructures and microhardness of a rapidly solidified Al-Li-Cu-Mg-Zr alloy were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry(DSC) and transmission electron microscopy(TEM). The as-melt-spun ribbon was consisted of fine ${\delta}^{\prime}$ and icosahedral intermetallic compound which were precipitated in the matrix. Two exothermic peaks with the range of $120^{\circ}C-190^{\circ}C$ and $280^{\circ}C-344^{\circ}C$ corresponded to ${\delta}^{\prime}$ and ${\theta}^{\prime}$, S', $T_1$ precipitating reaction respectively, and two endothermic peaks with the range of $190^{\circ}C-280^{\circ}C$ and $344^{\circ}C-550^{\circ}C$ corresponded to dissolution of ${\delta}^{\prime}$ and ${\theta}^{\prime}$, S', $T_1$ respectively in DSC curves. Peak hardness value was obtained at $210^{\circ}C$ for 1 hr aging treatment.

This study aimed to characterize a lytic Salmonella Typhimurium-specific (ST) phage and its biofilm control capability against S. Typhimurium biofilm on polypropylene surface. ST phage was isolated, propagated, and purified from water used in a slaughterhouse. The morphology of ST phage was observed via transmission electron microscopy. Its bactericidal effect was evaluated by determining bacterial concentrations after the phage treatment at various multiplicities of infection (MOIs) of 0.01, 1.0, and 100. Once the biofilm was formed on the polypropylene tube after incubation at 37℃ for 48 h, the phage was treated and its antibiofilm capability was determined using crystal violet staining and plate count method. The phage was isolated and purified at a final concentration of ~11 log PFU/mL. It was identified as a myophage with an icosahedral head (~104 nm) and contractile tail (~90-115 nm). ST phage could significantly decrease S. Typhimurium population by ~2.8 log CFU/mL at an MOI of 100. After incubation for 48 h, biofilm formation on polypropylene surface was confirmed with a bacterial population of ~6.9 log CFU/cm². After 1 h treatment with ST phage, the bacterial population in the biofilm was reduced by 2.8 log CFU/cm². Therefore, these results suggest that lytic ST phage as a promising biofilm control agent for eradicating S. Typhimurium biofilm formed on food contact surfaces.

구제역(Foot-and-Mouth Disease: FMD)이란 소, 돼지, 양, 염소 등의 cloven-hoofed 동물에서 나타나는 바이러스성 질병으로 입, 코, 유두, 발굽 등에 수포가 형성되는 것이 특징이다. 일곱 가지 혈청형(O, A, C, Asia1, SAT1, SAT2 and SAT3)으로 분류되는 구제역바이러스(Foot-and-Mouth Disease Virus: FMDV)는 single stranded positive RNA virus로 nonenveloped capsid virus이다. Viral genome은 8.2 Kb로 하나의 ORF인 polyprotein으로 되어있으며, 크게 capsid protein coding region인 P1, replication related protein coding region인 P2, RNA dependent RNA polymerase coding region인 P3로 구성된다. FMDV는 respiratory tract의 pharynx epithelial cell에 감염되며, lung epithelial cell에서 replication을 한다. 구제역바이러스는 감염율은 높지만 낮은 치사율을 가진다. 2002년 한국에서 구제역이 발병하여 많은 경제적 손실을 입었다. FMDV의 감염을 조절할 수 있는 조절방법이 없는 실정이며, 현재 많은 나라에서는 구제역바이러스의 감염을 막을 수 있는 효과적인 방법을 연구하고 있다. 본 보고서에서는 FMD에 대한 보다 효과적인 예방법인 DNA vaccine, edible vaccine, peptide vaccine에 대해 고찰하였다.

The precipitation behavior in Mg-6 wt%Zn-1 wt%Y alloy annealed at different temperatures of $200^{\circ}C$ and $400^{\circ}C$ has been characterized by high resolution transmission electron microscope. When the alloy is annealed at $200^{\circ}C$ for 6 hr, the plate- and the rod-shaped ${\beta}_2'$ phases are precipitated in the matrix. The orientation relationship of plate-shaped precipitates with the matrix exhibits a [$11{\bar{2}}0]{\beta}_2$ || [$10{\bar{1}}0$]Mg, $(0001){\beta}_2'$ || (0001)Mg. While the rod-shaped precipitates have two kinds of the orientation relationships with the matrix, i.e. $[11{\bar{2}}0]{\beta}_2'$||[0001] Mg, $(0001){\beta}_2'||(11{\bar{2}}0)$ Mg and $[11{\bar{2}}0]{\beta}_2'$||[0001] Mg, $({\bar{1}}106){\beta}_2'||(10{\bar{1}}0)$ Mg. With increasing annealing time at $200^{\circ}C$ the ${\beta}_1'$ phases are also precipitated in the matrix and the orientation relationship exhibits a $[010]{\beta}_1'$ || [0001]Mg, $(603){\beta}_1'$ || ($01{\bar{1}}0$)Mg between the ${\beta}_1'$ precipitate and the matrix. The icosahedral phases are precipitated in the alloy annealed at $400^{\circ}C$ and exhibit a $[I2]_I$ || [0001]Mg relationship with the matrix.

Like the other herpesviruses, the virion of MDV consists of an envelope, which surrounds an amorphous tegument. Within the tegument, and icosahedral capsid encloses a linear double-stranded DNA core. Although the genome structure of MDV indicates that it is an ${\alpha}-herpesvirus$ like herpes simplex and varicella-zoster viruses, biological properties indicate MDV is more akin to the ${\gamma}-herpesvirus$ group, which includes Epstein-Barr and Kaposi's sarcoma herpesviruses. These herpesviruses replicate lytically in lymphocytes, epithelial and fibroblastic cells, and persist in lymphoblastoid cells. MDV has a complex life cycle and uses two means of replication, productive and non-productive, to exist and propagate. The method of reproduction changes according to a defined pattern depending on changes in virus-cell interactions at different stages of the disease, and in different tissues. Productive (lytic) interactions involve active invasion and take-over of the host cell, resulting in the production of infectious progeny virions. However, some herpesviruses, including MDV, can also establish a non-productive (abortive) infection in certain cell types, resulting in production of cell-associated progeny virus. Non-productive interactions represent persistent infection, in which the viral genome is present but gene expression is limited, there is no structural or regulatory gene translation, no replication, no release of progeny virions and no cell death. Reactivation of the virus is rare, and usually the infectious virus can be re-isolated only after cultivation in vitro. MDV establishes latency in lymphoid cells, some of which are subsequently transformed. In this review article, recent knowledges of the pathogenesis mechanisms followed by MDV infection to sensitive cells and chickens are discussed precisely.

Bacterial wilt caused by Ralstonia solanacearum is a devastating disease of many economically important crops. Since there is no promising control strategy for bacterial wilt, phage therapy could be adopted using virulent phages. We used phage PE204 as a model lytic bacteriophage to investigate its biocontrol potential for bacterial wilt on tomato plants. The phage PE204 has a short-tailed icosahedral structure and double-stranded DNA genome similar to that of the members of Podoviridae. PE204 is stable under a wide range of temperature and pH, and is also stable in the presence of the surfactant Silwet L-77. An artificial soil microcosm (ASM) to study phage stability in soil was adopted to investigate phage viability under a controlled system. Whereas phage showed less stability under elevated temperature in the ASM, the presence of host bacteria helped to maintain a stable phage population. Simultaneous treatment of phage PE204 at $10^8$ PFU/ml with R. solanacearum on tomato rhizosphere completely inhibited bacterial wilt occurrence, and amendment of Silwet L-77 at 0.1% to the phage suspension did not impair the disease control activity of PE204. The biocontrol activities of phage PE204 application onto tomato rhizosphere before or after R. solanacearum inoculation were also investigated. Whereas pretreatment with the phage was not effective in the control of bacterial wilt, post-treatment of PE204 delayed bacterial wilt development. Our results suggested that appropriate application of lytic phages to the plant root system with a surfactant such as Silwet L-77 could be used to control the bacterial wilt of crops.

이상기상현상의 발생횟수가 지속적으로 증가함에 따라 기상 예측은 국가 재난 관리에 중요한 요소로써 부상하고 있다. 계절예측 또한 재난관리의 한 부분으로, 농업, 에너지, 수자원 그리고 공공보건 등 다양한 분야에서 잠재적 위험을 파악하는데 도움이 되는 보조 자료로 활용이 가능하다. 본 연구에서는 ICON(ICOsahedral-Nonhydrostatic) 모델을 이용하여 2015년 여름철(JJA) 강수를 예측하였다. 2015년은 장마기간을 포함한 여름철 동안 평년대비 약 절반수준(54%)에 그치는 비가 내렸으며, 태풍으로 인한 강수량도 적어 연 강수량이 평년대비 72%로 역대 최저 3위를 기록하였다. 지역별로 보면 제주도와 남해안 지방을 제외한 대부분 지방에서 강수량이 적게 나타났으며, 수도권을 중심으로는 60% 미만의 강수량을 보였다. ICON 모델은 독일 기상청(DWD)과 막스플랑크 연구소(MPI-M)에서 공동 개발하여 현업 운영중인 전 지구 모델로 비정역학 코어를 사용한다. 전 지구를 정 20면체의 삼각형으로 격자화 시켜 모든 격자의 크기가 동일하고, 극점은 1개의 꼭짓점으로 구성되어 CFL(Courant-Friderich-Lewy) 문제가 해소될 수 있다. 또한 hybrid의 병렬구조를 사용하여 전산사용 효율성을 극대화 하는 특징이 있다. 강수의 계절 예측 수행 과정은 다음과 같다. 우선, 계절예측 자료 분석 시 활용할 ICON모델의 기후값을 생산하기 위해 30년(1980년~2009년)간의 AMIP기반 규준실험을 수행한다. 다음으로, SST와 Sea ice의 평년대비 현재 변동량을 계산하고, 이 자료는 모델 적분을 수행할 때 경계 자료로서 활용하게 된다. 계절 예측은 시간 지연기법(Time-lagged method)를 이용한 앙상블예측으로 수행하며, 예측하고자 하는 계절이 시작하기 약 1개원 이전부터 1일 간격으로 전 지구 모델의 초기자료를 다르게 선택하여 총 10개의 앙상블 멤버를 구성한다. 모델의 해상도는 수평 40km, 수직 90개 층으로 구성하였으며, 적분이 완료되면 AMIP기반 실험을 통해 모의된 기후값을 토대로 예측된 계절전망 자료의 변동성을 분석한다.

Xanthomonas oryzae, a bacterial pathogen causing leaf blight disease (BLB) in rice, can cause widespread disease and has caused epidemics globally, resulting in severe crop losses of 50% in Asia. The pathogen is seed-borne and is transmitted through seeds. Thus, control of BLB requires the elimination of the pathogen from seeds. Concern about environment-friendly organic production has spurred improvements in a variety of biological disease control methods, including the use of bacteriophages, against bacterial plant pathogens. The present study explored the potential of bacteriophages isolated from diseased plant leaves and soil samples in killing the bacterial pathogen in rice seeds. Eight different phages were isolated and evaluated for their bacteriolytic activity against different pathogenic X. oryzae strains. Of these, a phage designated ${\varphi}XOF4$ killed all the pathogenic X. oryzae strains and showed the broadest host range. Transmission electron microscopy of ${\varphi}XOF4$ revealed it to be a tailed phage with an icosahedral head. The virus was assigned to the family Siphoviridae, order Caudovirales. Seedlings raised from the seeds treated with $1{\times}10^8pfu/ml$ of ${\varphi}XOF4$ phage displayed reduced incidence of BLB disease and complete bacterial growth inhibition. The findings indicate the potential of the ${\varphi}XOF4$ phage as a potential biological control agent against BLB disease in rice.
