본 연구는 칡소와 한우 그리고 젖소의 각 군을 통하여 RAPD-PCR방법과 RFLP방법을 응용하여 칡소에서 특이적으로 발현되는 유전자의 검출과 발현빈도에 따른 표지유전자를 분석하여 칡소 특이적인 표지인자를 탐색하고자 실시하였다. 연구결과, RAPD분석을 통하여 칡소에서 특이적으로 표현되는 유전자들을 발견할 수 있었으며, 검출 유전자의 다양성이 모색과 종간의 차이가 있음을 알 수 있었다. 특이적으로 표현된 유전자들 중 칡소에서 특이적으로 표현되는 R9B 유전자를 발견할 수 있었고, 이 유전자는 한우와 젖소의 일부 DNA 염기서열상의 차이점이 있음을 확인할 수 있었으며, 추후 칡소의 표지유전자로 적용할 수 있을 것이라 사료되었다.

Sperm cryopreservation is an important method of assisted reproductive techniques and storing genetic resources. It plays a vital role in genetic improvement, livestock industrial preservation of endangered species, and clinical practice. Consequently, the cryopreservation technique is well organized through various studies, especially on Korean native cattle (Hanwoo). However, the cryopreservation technique of Korean native brindled cattle, which is one of the native cattle species in Korea, is not well organized. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a Supplementary Table technique for the cryopreservation of Korean native brindled cattle. For this purpose, it is important to first evaluate the quality of the currently produced cryopreserved sperm of Korean native brindled cattle. In this study, we randomly selected 72 individual Korean native brindled cattle semen samples collected from 8 different region research centers and used them to evaluate sperm functions. We focused on the quality evaluation of cryopreserved Korean native brindled cattle semen following the measurement of motion kinematics, capacitation status, intracellular ATP level, sperm motility, and cell viability. Then, the values of each of the eight groups were derived from various sperm parameters of nine individual samples, including sperm motility, kinematics, cellular motility, and intracellular ATP levels, which were used to compare and evaluate sperm function. Overall, differences in various sperm parameters were observed between most of the research centers. Particularly, the deviations of motility and motion kinematics were high according to the sample. Therefore, we suggest that it is necessary to develop a standard method for the cryopreservation of Korean native brindled cattle semen. We also suggest the need for sperm quality evaluation of the cryopreserved semen of Korean native brindled cattle before using artificial insemination to attain a high fertility rate.
