두 종의 Bacillus와 한 종의 Pseudomonas로 구성된 컨소시엄 미생물제제를 고추 경작지에 첨가하였을 때 경작지 토양의 미생물 다양성 변화를 조사하기 위해 건전한 토양의 지표가 되는 질소순환관여 미생물과 근권토양 내 섬유소 분해기능, 인산가용화기능과 urea 가수분해기능을 가지는 기능성미생물의 활성과 밀도를 측정하였다. 고추 경작지 토양에 컨소시엄 PGPR 미생물인 B. subtilis AH18, B. licheniformis K11과 P. fluorescens 2112의 컨소시엄 미생물제제를 처리하여 토양미생물의 다양성에 변화를 측정하여 컨소시엄 미생물제제의 처리에 의한 근권토양 미생물의 다양성 변화와 고추의 생육에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 컨소시엄 미생물제제 처리구의 경우 Actinomyces spp., Trichoderma spp., 광합성세균과 Azotobacter spp.가 다른 처리구에 비하여 1.7-5배 이상 높았으며, 질소 순환에 관여하는 미생물은 1.4-4배 증가되었다. 또한 기능성 미생물의 다양성도 화학제제나 물처리구와 비교하였을 때 1.3-3배 증가하였다. 건고추 수확량은 컨소시엄 미생물제제를 처리하였을 경우 대조구나 화학제제를 처리하였을 때보다 15%이상 수확량이 증대되었다. 따라서 PGPR 컨소시엄 미생물제제의 처리로 인해 고추 경작지 토양의 근권미생물 다양성과 작물의 생산성에 긍정적인 영향을 주는 것으로 생각된다. 추후 메타지노믹스를 활용하여 미생물 다양성 변화를 추가적으로 확인할 예정이다.

BACKGROUND: This study investigated the effects of rice genetically modified to be resistant against rice blast and rice bacterial blight on the soil microbial community. A comparative analysis of the effects of rice genetically modified rice choline kinase (OsCK1) gene for disease resistance (GM rice) and the Nakdong parental cultivar (non-GM rice) on the soil microbial community at each stage was conducted using rhizosphere soil of the OsCK1 and Nakdong rice. METHODS AND RESULTS: The soil chemistry at each growth stage and the bacterial and fungal population densities were analyzed. Soil DNA was extracted from the samples, and the microbial community structures of the two soils were analyzed by pyrosequencing. No significant differences were observed in the soil chemistry and microbial population density between the two soils. The taxonomic analysis showed that Chloroflexi, Proteobacteria, Firmicutes, Actinobacteria, and Acidobacteria were present in all soils as the major phyla. Although the source tracking analysis per phylogenetic rank revealed that there were differences in the bacteria between the GM and non-GM soil as well as among the cultivation stages, the GM and non-GM soil were grouped according to the growth stages in the UPGMA dendrogram analysis. CONCLUSION: The difference in bacterial distributions between Nakdong and OsCK1 rice soils at each phylogenetic level detected in microbial community analysis by pyrosequencing may be due to the genetic modification done on GM rice or due to heterogeneity of the soil environment. In order to clarify this, it is necessary to analyze changes in root exudates along with the expression of transgene. A more detailed study involving additional multilateral soil analyses is required.

The balance of microbial populations in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract of all warm-blooded animals is critical to the maintenance of health and resistance to disease. The composition of the populations can be altered by diet and environment, making the host animal susceptible to disease, and reducing growth rate and feed efficiency. Some feed additives including antimicrobial agents, prohiotics or yucca extract have been used to promote growth and feed utilization. There is evidence that part of growth-promoting effect of those feed additives results from the suppression of microbial urease activity or ammonia production in the GI contents of animals. Over 200 microbial species have been known to produce urease and the product of urea hydrolysis, ammonia, is toxic to animals. Carefully tested probiotics or other urease-suppressing agents can be a possible alternative to antimicrobial agents including antibiotics as growth promotants used for animals feeds.

The use of suitable sanitizers can increase the quality of fresh-cut produce and reduce the risk of foodborne illnesses. The objective of this study was to compare the washing effects of 100 mg/L sodium hypochlorite (SH) and 500 mg/L acidified sodium chlorite (ASC) on the prevention of enzymatic browning and the growth of microbial populations, including aerobic plate counts, E. coli, and coliforms, throughout storage at $4^{\circ}C$ and $10^{\circ}C$. Fresh-cut zucchini, cucumbers, green bell peppers, and root vegetables such as potatoes, sweet potatoes, carrots, and radishes were used. Compared to SH washing, ASC washing significantly (p<0.05) reduced microbial contamination on the fresh-cut produce and prevented browning of fresh-cut potatoes and sweet potatoes during storage. More effective inhibition of aerobic plate counts and coliforms growth was observed on fresh-cut produce treated with ASC during storage at $10^{\circ}C$. Polyphenol oxidase (PPO) activity of fresh-cut potatoes and sweet potatoes was more effectively inhibited after washing with ASC. The use of 500 mg/L ASC can provide effective antimicrobial and anti-browning treatments of fresh-cut produce, including processed root vegetables.

Aerobic bacterial growth on Korean pan.fried meat patties as a primary quality deterioration factor was modeled as a function of temperature to estimate microbial spoilage on a real.time basis under dynamic storage conditions. Bacteria counts in the stretch.wrapped foods held at constant temperatures of 0, 5, 10 and $15^{\circ}C$ were measured throughout storage. The bootstrapping method was applied to generate many resampled data sets of mean microbial counts, which were then used to estimate the parameters of the microbial growth model of Baranyi & Roberts in the form of differential equations. The temperature functions of the primary model parameters were set up with confidence limits. Incorporating the temperature dependent parameters into the differential equations of bacterial growth could produce predictions closely representing the experimental data under constant and fluctuating temperature conditions.

본 연구에서 18종의 한약재추출물을 제조하여 병원성세균에 대한 한약재의 항균활성을 측정하였다. 오배자, 오미자 및 소목 메탄올 추출물은 대부분 균주에 대해 5 mg/mL 수준에서 항균활성을 나타냈으나 15여 종의 한약재추출물들은 30 mg/mL 수준에서 항균활성을 나타냈다. 오배자의 S. epidermidis와 Bor. bronchiseptica에 대한 최소저해농도는 0.6 mg/mL로 나타났다. 우수한 항균활성이 확인된 오배자, 소목, 오미자, 황금을 대상으로 극성이 다른 5가지 용매로 순차 분획하여 항균활성을 검토한 결과 대부분의 균주에서 EtOAc층이 다른 분획층에 비해 성장억제효과가 높게 나타났다. 항균력이 우수한 한약재추출물의 미생물 증식억제 효과를 조사하기 위해 증식배지에 0, 100, 300 및 500 ppm의 메탄올 추출물을 첨가하였다. 한약재 추출물을 첨가하지 않은 대조구에서는 12시간 이후 급격한 균의 성장을 나타내고 있으나 오배자와 소목추출물의 첨가 농도가 높을수록 그람 양성균인 S. aureus, S. epidermidis 및 L. monocytogenes는 뚜렷한 억제효과를 나타냈다. 오배자추출물은 그람음성균인 Sal. Pullorum과 Sal. Choleraesuis의 성장을 저해하였고 Bor. bronchiseptica, E. coli serotype $O_8$은 오배자와 소목추출물은 낮은 농도에서 성장이 다소 저해되었음을 보여주었고, 추출물의 농도가 높을수록 균의 성장이 강하게 억제되었다.

Bacteria belonging to the genus Paenibacillus are facultatively anaerobic endospore formers and are attracting growing ecological and agricultural interest, yet their genome information is very limited. The present study surveyed the genomic features of P. polymyxa ATCC $842^T$ using pulse-field gel electrophoresis of restriction fragments and sample genome sequencing of 1,747 reads (approximately 17.5% coverage of the genome). Putative functions were assigned to more than 60% of the sequences. Functional classification of the sequences showed a similar pattern to that of B. subtilis. Sequence analysis suggests nitrogen fixation and antibiotic production by P. polymyxa ATCC $842^T$, which may explain its plant growth-promoting effects.

To utilize edible red algae paper for food packaging, red algae paper coated with green tea extract or catechin was prepared and microbial growth in bread wrapped with the paper was determined during storage. The paper coated with green tea extract or catechin had antimicrobial activity against Escherichia coli. Packaging of bread with the red algae paper coated with green tea extract or catechin decreased the populations of total aerobic bacteria and yeast and mold after 2 days of storage by 0.41 and 0.63 log CFU/g, respectively, compared to the control. These results suggest that bread can be packaged by edible red algae paper coated with green tea extract or catechin, resulting in inhibit microbial growth during storage.

Seasonal and vertical variations of abiontic soil carboxymethylcellulase (CMCase) activities were assessed every other month for a year in two contrasting forest soils and evaluated the relationships between soil CMCase activity and environmental parameters. In climax deciduous soil, variations in CMCase activities caused by differences in sampling time were greater than those caused by differences in soil depth. On the other hand, counter phenomenon was obserned in coniferous soil at the stage of development. Correlation analyses showed that soil CMCase activities were significantly (p>0.01) correlated with microbial respiration rates ($O_2$ uptake) and all of the microbial population sizes. From these results, it is suggested that determination of abiontic soil CMCase activity is an useful additional index for evaluating the overall microbial growth and activity in soils.
