  • Bowlesia incana Ruiz & Pav., a new invasive alien plant in Korea, was found in Ulju-gun, Ulsan Metropolitan City. This species is characterized as being similar to the genera Hydrocotyle Tourn. ex L. and Centella L. However, it differs morphologically from these two genera in leaves, flowers, and fruits, as well as stellate pubescence growing on the whole plant. In Korea, Bowlesia incana Ruiz & Pav. is recorded for the first time in this study. A morphological description, distribution map, and illustrations based on the Korean materials collected are presented.

  • The performance of three tubular materials (C-90, L-80, and N-80) was evaluated in a synthetic brine inoculated with sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) in the absence and presence of biocides. A flow loop was used in the evaluation of the three alloys. Morphological examination of the alloy surfaces after exposure to SRB and after biocide treatment was performed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to determine the nature of any localized corrosion. The SE images of the coupon samples showed a marked difference between the biocide-treated and untreated samples. Small pits were observed on the ultrasonically cleaned surfaces of the three alloys after exposure to SRB. The biocide treatment reduced the number of SRB on the surfaces of the alloys. Results indicated that C-90 and L-80 alloys exhibited better MIC resistance than N-80 under the conditions used in this study.

  • This paper focuses on the applicability of paradigm to derivational morphology and the pressure of paradigm enforced on derivational phonology and morphology. Through a close examination of well-attested data, we will demonstrate that apparent surface idiosyncrasies in phonology are the results of paradigm leveling, and that paradigmatic forces of analogy are productively operating in English word formation. On the basis of these observations, it can be argued that the notion of paradigm has at least some justification within derivational morphology as well, even if not to the same extent that it has with inflectional morphology and that the paradigm forces are independently needed in any adequate phonological and morphological theory. This can also be extended to provide evidence against the split morphology hypothesis that inflectional and derivational morphology belong to different grammatical modules.

  • 'An Che Whan(安滯九)' is a Chinese patent medicine which has been used for gastric ulcer and digestive disorder in Korea. It consists of 15 kinds of powdered crude drugs. In powdered crude drugs, it is hard to identify each component by chemical analysis or morphological examination. However, the method of identification of powdered crude drugs has not been clearly established. For the identification of individual crude drugs in such powdery mixtures, a microscopic method may be used conveniently as it requires only a small amount of specimens. In this study, it is demonstrated that the microscopic method is very effective fer the identification of the 15 crude drug ingredients in An Che Whan.

  • Effects of the aqueous extract of Aquilariae Lignum (Thymelaeaceae) on the allergic reactions were investigated. Oral administration of this extract (50, 250, and 500mg/kg) exhi bited a dose-dependent inhibition on passive cutaneous anaphylactic reactions in rats. Administrations of this extract (500mg/kg, i.p.) at 60 min before and 5, 10 min after the compound 48/80 treatment (8mg/kg, i.p.) decreased the mortality rates to 0, 0, and 14.2%, respectively. The aqueous extract of Aquilariae Lignum (0.05 ~ 1.6mg/ml) showed a dose-related inhibition on histamine release from rat peritoneal mast cells. The morphological examination also clearly showed that the aqueous extract of Aquilariae Lignum prevented the degranulation of mast cells in rats.

  • Ostericum praeteritum $K_{ITAGAWA}(=Angelica\;koreana\;M_{AXIM}.)$ has been regarded as the original plant of Korean Qianghuo. The morphological and anatomical examination were made on Korean Qianghuo (crude drug fruits, purchased at markets and cultivated), and compared with Gangwhal $(O.\;praeteritum\;K_{ITAG}.)$. It was found that 3 species $A.\; polymorpha\;M_{AXIM}.,O.\;grosseserratum\;K_{ITAG}.,\;and\;O.\;sieboldi \;N_{AKAI}$. were different from Gangwhal. The original plant of Korean Qianghuo was identified as $A.\;polymorpha\;M_{AXIM}$, through this study.

  • In previous studies investigating the genus Xanthoparmelia, thirteen different species have been reported from South Korea alone. However, there currently has been no revisional study performed until now. To explore the genus Xanthoparmelia, a phenotypic analysis was performed based on morphological, anatomical and chemical characters, while an investigation of Xanthoparmelia phylogeny was based on nuclear ribosomal (nr) DNA ITS sequences. A thorough examination of the specimens deposited in the Korean Lichen Research Institute (KoLRI) confirmed that eight species of Xanthoparmelia occur inside South Korea. Our analysis further confirmed the colors of the lower surface and medullar chemistry are important taxonomic characters in Xanthoparmelia. This study also presents a detailed description of each species and a key to the genus.

  • As part of a larger study of indigenous prokaryotic species diversity in South Korea, various samples from Namhangang were subjected to analyses. Fresh water, underwater sediment, and moss-inhabiting aerobic and anaerobic bacteria were isolated. 22 of the isolates were identified as unrecorded bacterial species in Korea that had ${\geq}98.7%$ 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity with published species. The aerobic strains isolated were Kurthia gibsonii and Massilia plicata. Also identified were four facultative anaerobic strains: Bacillus hisashii, Enterococcus rotai, Paenibacillus vini, and Pediococcus pentosaceus. 16 strictly anaerobic strains were identified as Bacteroides xylanolyticus, Carnobacterium maltaromaticum, Clostridium argentinense, Clostridium beijerinckii, Clostridium butyricum, Clostridium cavendishii, Clostridium diolis, Clostridium frigidicarnis, Clostridium perfringens, Clostridium saccharoperbutylacetonicum, Clostridium sphenoides, Clostridium subterminale, Cutibacterium acnes, Paraclostridium bifermentans, Prevotella paludivivens, and Romboutsia lituseburensis. Based on the examination of morphological, cultural, physiological, and biochemical properties of the isolates, descriptive information of these previously unrecorded species is provided here.

  • During routine survey of Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) collected from Tongyoung area in southern coast of Korea, histological examination revealed that a intracellular microorganisms infected the digestive gland of the oyster. They infected hepatopancreatic cells extensively. The size of intracellular microorganism was of 45 to 86nm in diameter and 200nm to more thar 500nm in length. They were pleomorphic. The morphological characteristic of intracellular microorganisms lacked cell wall and was bounded by the plasma membrane. They contained typical prokaryotic ribosomes and fibrillar DNA-like strands. No additional internal structure has been observed. Based on the lack of cell wall and the cellular localization, the intracellular microorganism is considered as a Mycoplasma-like organism.
