  • Anammox reactor seeded with sewage sludge from RBC reactor and anaerobic granule from full-scale UASB reactor treating distillery wastewater was operated. Mixed granule and suspended sludge in the ammonium oxidizing process were taken and analyzed to investigate microbial community structure by molecular methods such as gene cloning and phylogenetic tree analysis after 250 days of continuous cultivation. The average nitrogen removal rate showed $0.9kg\;N/m^3-day$ after 250 days of continuous operation, then the maximum nitrogen removal rate showd $1.9kg\;N/m^3-day$ when $2.1kg\;N/m^3-day$ of nitrogen loading rate was applied. As results of gene cloning and phylogenetic tree analysis, Three kinds of phylum were found to be Proteobacteria, Acidobacteria and Planctomycetes (anammox bacteria) in mixed granule. Five kinds of phylum were found to be Proteobacteria, Chlorobi, Planctomycetes, Nitrospirae and Verrucomicrobia in suspended sludge. We found planctomycete KSU-1 and putative new anammox bacteria in the reactor. Microbial structure represented different consortia depending on the types of sludge in the anammox reactor.

  • 한국산 Geranium(쥐손이풀속) 16분류군과 3개의 군외군을 대상으로 진화와 유연관계를 평가하기 위하여 nuclear ribosomal DNA 중 internal transcribed spacer (ITS) 구간에 대한 계통 분류학적 분석을 수행하였다. 계통 분류학적 연구들은 bootstrapping, jackknifing을 포함한 parsimony 방법과 neighbor-joining 방법을 사용하였다. 그 결과 한국산 쥐손이풀속은 단계통군을 형성하였다. Parsimony tree에서 한라이질풀은 가장 기부에 위치하였으며 Erianthum group은 높은 지지도에 의해 하나의 분계조를 형성하였다(100% bootstrap과 jackknife values). Krameri group인 산쥐손이는 Palustre group인 섬쥐손이와 가까이 위치하였으나 그 지지도는 매우 낮았고(37% bootstrap과 44% jackknife values) strict tree에서는 clade가 붕괴되었다. Wilfordii group에 분류되었던 큰세잎쥐손이는 Koreanum group과 가까이 위치하였고, Sibiricum group인 쥐손이풀은 Krameri group인 삼쥐손이와 가까이 위치하였으며 또한 이 두 종은 역시 Krameri group인 선이질풀과 자매군을 이루었다. Wilfordii group인 좀쥐손이와 세잎쥐손이는 Sibiricum group인 삼이질풀, 이질풀과 가까이 위치하였다. 이와 같은 결과는 많은 학자들에 의해 논란이 된 분류군들의 문제를 해결하는데 유용한 접근방법이라 생각되며, 전체 쥐손이풀속 수준에서의 계통분석에 유용한 도구로 이용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

  • We cloned seven genes encoding chitin synthases (CHSs) by PCR amplification from genomic DNAs of four strains of the genus Sporobolomyces and of Bensingtonia subrosea using degenerated primers based on conserved regions of the CHS genes. Though amino acid sequences of these genes were shown similar as 176 to 189 amino acids except SgCHS2, DNA sequences were different in size, which was due to various introns present in seven fragments. Alignment and phylogenetic analysis of their deduced amino acid sequences together with the reported CHS genes of basidiomycetes separated the sequences into classes I, II and III. This analysis also permitted the classification of isolated CHSs; SgCHS1 belongs to class I, BsCHS1, SaCHS1, SgCHS2, SpgCHS1, and SsCHS1 belong to class II, and BsCHS2 belongs to class III. The deduced amino acid sequences involving in class II that were discovered from five strains were also compared with those of other basidiomycetes by CLUSTAL X program. The bootstrap analysis and phylogenetic tree by neighbor-joining method revealed the taxonomic and evolutionary position for four strains of the genus Sporobolomyces and for Bensingtonia subrosea which agreed with the previous classification. The results clearly showed that CHS fragments could be used as a valuable key for the molecular taxonomic and phylogenetic studies of basidiomycetes.

  • To examine the taxonomic position and affinities of Isopyrum mandshuricum (Ranunculaceae) and related taxa, genetic analysis were carried out on the basis of isozyme patterns and ITS sequences. Molecular data, both isozyme patterns and ITS sequences suggest that I. mandshuricum is closely related to Enemion raddeanum than to Semiaquilegia adoxoides. The estimation of genetic identities by isozyme analysis reveals that I. manshuricum is genetically distant from E. raddeanum. The phylogenetic tree based on molecular data is rather congruent with the phenogram based on quantitative morphological characteristics, but not consistent with one based on qualitative morphological characteristics. Incongruencies between molecular and qualitative morphological data provide clues to re-evaluate several morphological features.

  • The internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region in the genus Tricholoma was analyzed, including for its primary nucleotide sequence and secondary structural characterization. The secondary structures of the ITS2 region in the genus Tricholoma were identified for use in bioinformatic processes to study molecular evolution and compare secondary structures. Ten newly sequenced ITS regions were added to the analysis and submitted to the GenBank database. The resulting structure from a minimum energy algorithm indicated the four-domain model, as previously suggested by others. The conserved secondary structure of the ITS2 sequences of the genus Tricholoma exhibited certain unique features, including pyrimidine tracts in the loops of domain A and a complete structure containing four domains, with motifs identified in other ITS2 secondary structures. A phylogenetic tree was derived from sequence alignment based on the secondary structures. From the resulting maximum parsimonious tree, it was found that the species in the genus Tricholoma had evolved monophyletically and were composed of four groups, as supported by the bootstrapping values and pileus color.

  • LSU rDNA D1-D2 and SSU rDNA genes of 23 strains in seven Alexandrium (Halim) species, A. tamarense (Lebour) Balech, A. catenella (Whedon et Kofoid), A. fraterculus (Balech) Balech, A. affine (Inoue et Fukuyo) Balech, A. insuetum Balech, A. pseudogonyaulax (Biecheler) Horiguchi ex Yuki et Fukuyo and A. tamiyavanichii Balech, were sequenced and the data were used for molecular phylogenetic analysis. The sequence data revealed 11 and 7 ribotypes in the LSU rDNA D1-D2 region and 4 and 17 ribotypes in the SSU rDNA region of A. catenella and A. tamarense, respectively. Other Alexandrium species had also 1 to 5 ribotypes in the two regions. With the exception of CMC2 and CMC3 of A. catenella, all A. tamarense and A. catenella strains had a common ribotype, a functionally expressed rRNA gene (here termed type A), in both gene regions. In addition to the functionally expressed gene, several pseudogenes were obtained that were found to be good tools to analyze the population designation of regional isolates by grouping them according to shared ribotypes. From the phylogenetic analysis of the sequence data determined in this study and retrieved from GenBank, the genus Alexandrium was divided into 14 groups: 1) A. tamarense, 2) A. excavatum, 3) A. catenella, 4) Tasmanian A. tamarense, 5) A. affine (and/or A. concavum), 6) Thai A. tamarense, 7) A. tamiyavanichii, 8) A. fraterculus, 9) A. margalefii, 10) A. andersonii, 11) A. ostenfeldii, 12) A. minutum (or A. lusitanicum), 13) A. insuetum, and 14) A. pseudogonyaulax. The SSU rDNA gene sequence of A. fundyense was so similar to those of A. tamarense used in this study that the two species were difficult to discriminate each other. A. tamiyavanichii was closest to the A. tamarense strain isolated in Thailand and close to the long chain-forming species of A. affine and A. fraterculus. The phylogenetic tree showed that A. margalefii, A. andersonii, A. ostenfeldii, A. minutum and A. insuetum constituted the basal relative complex, and that A. pseudogonyaulax is an ancestral taxon in the genus Alexandrium.

  • Four strains of Phellinus spp. was identified based on internal transcribed spacer(ITS) region of rDNA sequence analysis and morphological characteristics. Basidiocarps of all strains were effused-reflexed and hymenial surface was poroid. Hyphal system was dimitic and basidiospore was globose to ellipsoid. The amplification of ITS regions produced a DNA fragment of 500 to 780 by in all strains examined. The determined sequences were analyzed for the reconstruction of phylogenetic tree. From these results, Phellinus sp. KM-1, KM-2, and KM-4 was identified as P. hartigii, P. baumii, and P. linteus, respectively.

  • In this study, we report genetic characterization of Orobanche cumana, the causal agent of sunflower wilting in Serbia. The genetic diversity of this parasitic plant in Serbia was not studied before. Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers and partial rbcL gene sequences analysis were used to characterize the O. cumana populations at the molecular level. While phylogenetic analyses of RAPD-PCR amplicons were performed using unweighted pair-group Method analyses, rbcL gene sequences were analyzed using neigbor joining method and minimum spanning tree. Molecular analyses of RAPD-PCR analysis revealed high genetic diversity of O. cumana populations which indicated high adaptive potential of this parasitic weed in Serbia. Further analyses of rbcL gene using minimum spanning tree revealed clear differences among diverse sections of Orobanche genus. Although this molecular marker lacked the resolution to display intrapopulation diversity it could be a useful tool for understanding the evolution of this parasitic plant. Our results suggested that O. cumana has great genetic potential which can lead to differentiation of more virulent races which is important for determining crop breeding strategies for their control.

  • 피부사상균증이 있는 개와 고양이에서 분리한 9주의 Microsporum canis와 5주의 Microsporum gypseum에서 ribosomal DNA를 추출하여 internal transcribed spacer 1 (ITS1) gene을 PCA로 증폭한 후 sequencing을 실시하여, 각 사상균의 계통학적 관계를 조사하였다. M canis 분리주 9주의 ITS1 gene의 nucleotide sequence는 100% 일치하였으며 M gypseum 분리주 5주의 nucleotide sequence도 100% 일치하였다. M canis 분리주 9주의 계통분석 결과 미국, 일본, 호주 및 유럽에서 분리된 M canis와 같은 cluster에 속하였으며 다른 Microsporum spp와는 유전적으로 다른 cluster를 형성하였다. 그러나 M canis와 M distortum, M equinum, M ferrugineum은 유전적으로 매우 가까운 위치에 있었다. M gypseum 분리주는 M canis와는 다른 cluster를 형성하였다. ITS1 gene의 분자생물학적 분석은 Microsporum spp를 확인하고 그들의 유전학적 관계를 이해하는 유용한 정보를 제공하는 것으로 생각된다.

  • Genetic variation and molecular phylogeny of 22 taxa representing 14 extant species and 3 unidentified taxa of Boesenbergia in Thailand and four outgroup species (Cornukaempferia aurantiflora, Hedychium biflorum, Kaempferia parviflora, and Scaphochlamys rubescens) were examined by sequencing of 3 chloroplast (cp) DNA regions (matK, psbA-trnH and petA-psbJ). Low interspecific genetic divergence (0.25-1.74%) were observed in these investigated taxa. The 50% majority-rule consensus tree constructed from combined chloroplast DNA sequences allocated Boesenbergia in this study into 3 different groups. Using psbA-1F/psbA-3R primers, an insertion of 491 bp was observed in B. petiolata. Restriction analysis of the amplicon (380-410 bp) from the remaining species with Rsa I further differentiated Boesenbergia to 2 groupings; I (B. basispicata, B. longiflora, B. longipes, B. plicata, B. pulcherrima, B. tenuispicata, B. thorelii, B. xiphostachya, Boesenbergia sp.1 and Boesenbergia sp.3; phylogenetic clade A) that possesses a Rsa I restriction site and II (B. curtisii, B. regalis, B. rotunda and Boesenbergia sp.2; phylogenetic clade B and B. siamensis; phylogenetic clade C) that lacks a restriction site of Rsa I. Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and indels found can be unambiguously applied to authenticate specie-origin of all investigated samples and revealed that Boesenbergia sp.1, Boesenbergia sp.2 and B. pulcherrima (Mahidol University, Kanchanaburi), B. cf. pulcherrima1 (Prachuap Khiri Khan) and B. cf. pulcherrima2 (Thong Pha Phum, Kanchanaburi) are B. plicata, B. rotunda and B. pulcherrima, respectively. In addition, molecular data also suggested that Boesenbergia sp.3 should be further differentiated from B. longiflora and regarded as a newly unidentified Boesenbergia species.
