Crucian carp (Carassius auratus) has been used as the sentinel species for POPs (Persistent Organic Pollutants) monitoring in aquatic environment. However, there is little information for dioxin toxicity and especially, early life stage toxicity in crucian carp have been never carried out. In this study, we investigated several toxic effects for 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (2,3,7,8-TCDD) in fertilized egg obtained by natural fertilization from crucian carp. The embryos at 3 h post-fertilization (hpf) were treated with 0.039, 0.156, 0.625, and 2.5 (${\mu}g/L$) TCDD by waterborne exposure for 60 minutes and changed with fresh water 2 times per day. Fertilized eggs started hatching at 51 hpf and TCDD exposed embryo showed decrease of hatching rate in a dose-dependent manner at 75 hpf. Pericardial edema was continuously observed in larvae exposed to TCDD from hatching start time (51 hpf), followed by the onset of mortality. In addition, AhR-related gene, CYP1A was clearly increased by TCDD in a dose dependent manner. These results indicated that fertilized eggs obtained from crucian carp have the TCDD related gene regulation and a distinct TCDD developmental toxicity syndrome by TCDD exposure. Therefore, we suggested that early life stage test in crucian carp could be used as test methods on dioxins toxicity.

Reproductive traits of Palaemon gravieri such as embryo size, number of embryo (fecundity), incubation period, larval development mode, larval development period, larval survival and larval growth were described and compared to analyze the correlation among those traits. Embryo volume is a primary factor determining other ensuing reproductive features. Egg volume was $0.042mm^3$ in the first developmental stage. Embryo volume in P. gravieri was comparatively small which is indicative of great number of embryo (y = 3.0161x + 0.0185 $R^2$ = 0.74 positive isometric relationship) and relatively long incubation period. Larvae survived from zoea 1 to post-larvae and it took 45 days at $22^{\circ}C$. Survival rate of the larvae was rather great in the early stage and thereafter steadily decreased. Daily growth rate of larvae in P. gravieri at $22^{\circ}C$ was 0.0195 mm on average. They grew steadily as time went by. Incubation period was between 10-14 days at $22^{\circ}C$. Larval development mode was almost complete planktotrophic. PNR (point of no return) appeared to be the third day on average. Survival rate of larvae without feeding declined rapidly between 3 and 4 days. Larval development period and stage frequency were 23-30 days and 11 stages which imply prolonged larval period and high mortality. The pattern of brood production followed fast successive parturial pattern. Most ovigerous female had mature ovary when they performed parturial molt soon after hatching (larval release).

Endocrine disruptor is an exogenous substance that changes endocrine function and causes adverse effects at the level of the organism, its progeny, and/or (sub)populations of the organisms. Purported adverse effects are cancers, declines in reproductive health, developmental learning disabilities in humans, and declining populations, altered morphology, physiology or behavior in wildlife. In these days, expert groups on chemicals in IPCS, IFCS and OECD are intensively discussing the identification of endocrine disruptors and the proper management of those chemicals. In this study, we screened the endocrine disrupting effects of lead using fertilized eggs of Oryzias latipes. In brief, the eggs were exposed to lead with different concentrations at Ringer's solution, and the mortality, the incidence of deformation, the body movement and the hatching success were determined after incubation. The histological analysis of normal and deformed larvae was also carried out. Compared to control, the mortality and the heart rate of eggs and/or larvae increased, but the hatching success and the tail movement decreased. The morphological observation showed the asymmetrical deformation of larvae and the distortion of spinal cord. The absorption of the liquid in yolk sac was hindered. The adverse effects of lead in the ontogeny of fertilized eggs of Oryzias latipes seemed to be stronger in pH5.6 than in pH7.5 solution. In summary, lead showed adverse effects on the ontogeny of fish fertilized eggs plays critical role in regulating biological systems and controlling developmental processes as an endocrine disruptor.

Seed production of olive flounder Paralichthys olivaceus was performed in a pilot RAS. The growth of juvenile olive flounder and changes in water quality were monitored for the entire production period. The pilot RAS consisted of 8 circular culture tanks($4.0mD{\times}1.0mH$), 2 trickling biofilters($1.7mD{\times}2.0mH$), 2 protein skimmers ($0.8mD{\times}2.5mH$), and 4 sedimentation chambers($0.7mD{\times}1.5mH$). The culture surface area was about $100.5m^2$ and the actual working volume was about $106.9m^3$. As many as 300,000 fertilized olive flounder eggs were initially distributed into 2 culture tanks with the water temperature at $19.0^{\circ}C$. Live feeds such as rotifers and Artemia nauplii were fed until the 32nd day after hatching, and a commercial diet was fed from the 19th day to the end of the experiment. After 70 days, 150,256 juveniles with a body length of $65.8{\pm}3.9mm$ were produced in the RAS, with a daily growth rate for body length of 4.7%/day. At this time, the final culture density was 1,495 individuals $m^{-2}$, and 13.6 L of makeup water, 0.071 kW of electricity and 0.025 L of diesel fuel were used to produce a juvenile olive flounder. During metamorphosis of the larvae, the TAN concentration increased to 0.99 mg/L, which made the larvae sensitive to result in some mortality. However no more massive mortality occurred at the juvenile stage after metamorphosis even at a TAN concentration of 4.25 mg/L and a ${NO_2}^{-}-N$ concentration of 2.45 mg/L.

본 실험은 육용계 기초사료에 copper와 Vit. E＋Se을 첨가급여시 육계의 혈청 IgG수준과 증체량 및 질병 발생율과의 상관관계를 조사함으로써 가금의 영양과 면역반응에 관한 기초적인 정보를 얻고자 실시하였다. 닭의 혈청중 IgG함량을 처리별, 시기별로 RID test에 의해 측정한 후 이를 증체량 및 건강상태와 비교한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 대조구의 혈청중 IgG함량은 부화 직후에 최고치 (4.26mg/$m\ell$)를 나타내었으며 2주령까지 급격히 감소하여 최소치 (0.87mg/$m\ell$)를 유지하다가 그후에 점차적으로 증가하여, 7주령에는 2.48mg/$m\ell$의 수준을 보였다. 2. 혈청 IgG의 농도와 증체량과의 상관성은 사육전기에는 고도의 유의적인 부의 상관관계를 보였으며 3주령에서 가장 높은 상관계수(r＝-0.423)를 나타냈으며 사육후기에는 정의 상관관계를 나타내어 7주령시의 IgG농도와 3주령시 증체량간에는 r＝＋0.246의 상관계수를 보였다. (p＜0.01) 3. Cul5, Cu25와 ES2O군의 혈청 IgG수준은 2주령에서 대조군에 비하여 낮은 수준을 보이다가 3주령에는 급속히 상승한 반면에 대조군에서는 이와 같은 현상이 1주일 늦게 나타났다. 이는 Cu나 Vit. E와 Se을 혼합 첨가 급여할 경우에는 능동면역의 발달이 대조군보다 1주일 조기에 일어나는 것으로 판단된다. 4. Cu15와 Cu25의 증체량은 대조군보다 높은 수준을 나타내었다. 특히 4주령시 증체율은 대조군에 비하여 4.8%와 4.5%높았다. ES2O군의 증체효과는 없었으며 ES 40군은 대조군보다 유의적으로 낮은 증체유을 보였다. 5. Cul5, Cu25, ES2O, ES4O군은 대조군에 비하여 높은 건강 수준을 유지하였으며 폐사율은 각각 1.9%, 1.9%, 2.9%와 1.0%로써 대조군의 4.8%에 비하여 낮은 수준을 보여 질병에 대한 저항능력이 향상되었다.

The Chinese windmill butterfly, Atrophaneura alcinous, is an important butterfly for exhibition in butterfly garden. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of temperature on A. alcinous in the laboratory. Development of A. alcinous reared on leaves of Aristolochia contorta was investigated at five constant the laboratory condition (20, 22.5, 25, 27.5 and $30^{\circ}C$) and at relative humidity of 60% with a photoperiod of 14:10 (L:D). Temperatures have been suggested as an important determinant of developmental rate, lifespan and mortality in invertebrates. As the temperature increased, the length of the developmental period gradually decreased. The developmental time (pupation) from egg hatching to pupation was respectively 25.8, 23.6, 19.6, 15.5, and 12.9 days at the temperatures of 20, 22.5, 25, 27.5 and $30^{\circ}C$. And pupation was respectively 40.0, 30.0, 63.4, 50.0, 23.3% at the temperatures of 20, 22.5, 25, 27.5 and $30^{\circ}C$. The developmental threshold temperature estimated for egg-to-pupae was 10.8, with a thermal constant of 230.4 degree-days. Therefore, the optimal developmental temperature for A. alninous was determined to be $25^{\circ}C$. To compare the effects of the total duration of chilling on the termination of diapause, larvae were subjected to a temperature of $8^{\circ}C$ from 60 to 120 days. The rate of termination of diapause was significantly higher at 60 days compared to other incubation period.

병아리의 성 감별은 양계 산업에 매우 중요한 요소이다. 현재, 산업적으로 병아리의 성 감별은 반성유전형질을 이용한 깃털감별법이 가장 널리 이용되고 있다. 그러나 깃털 감별로 생산된 병아리는 암컷은 모두 조우성, 수컷은 모두 만우성이므로 깃털의 조만성이 생산능력에 미치는 영향을 아는 것이 매우 중요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 실용 토종닭을 대상으로 조우성 닭과 만우성 닭의 생산능력을 비교 분석하고자 하였다. 분석 결과, 발생 후 12주령까지의 생존율에서 조우성 닭이 만우성 닭에 비해 유의하게 높은 생존율을 보이고 특히 암컷에서 이의 차이가 두드러졌다(P<0.05). 체중은 거의 모든 주령에서 조우성 닭과 만우성 닭 간의 차이는 없는 것으로 나타났다. 사료 섭취량 및 사료요구율에 있어서도 모든 조사 기간내 두 집단 간의 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 결론적으로 실용 토종닭의 경우 조우성 닭이 만우성 닭에 비해 생존율은 우수하나 산육 능력 및 사료 이용성에는 차이가 없는 것으로 보여진다. 이는 토종닭의 깃털 감별 종계 조성과 생산체계를 구축함에 있어 깃털 조만성에 의해 생산능력이 영향을 받지 않음을 시사하는 것으로써 산업적으로 깃털 감별을 실용화하는데 매우 바람직한 결과로 사료된다.

Host plants of the Henosepilachna vigintioctomaculata are known as Solanaceae plants such as potato, tomato, eggplant and Lycium chinense. Henosepilachna vigintioctomaculata (Motschulsky) cause continuous damage from early June to mid-August in leaves of L. chinense under environmental-friendly management in Cheongyang, Chungnam. The developmental period of egg and larva of H. vigintioctomaculata were investigated. H. vigintioctomaculata were reared on L. chinense at several temperatures, for example, 15, 20, 25 and $30^{\circ}C$ in the laboratory. In addition, the control effect of 5 eco-friendly agricultural materials were examined. As results, hatching rate is the highest to 91% at $25^{\circ}C$. Egg periods were 10.8, 7.7, 5.1 and 3.7 days at each tested temperature, respectively. And the total developmental periods from egg to adult were 42.7, 26.3, 18.4 and 19.4 days at each tested temperature, respectively. Otherwise, their eclosion rates from pupa to adult were showed 58%, 77%, 85%, 65% at each tested temperature, respectively. As a result of the control effect, both adults and larvae of H. vigintioctomaculata were shown a high mortality to mixture with extract of Sophora flavescens, Chenopodium ambrosioides and Melia azedarach. Additional, larvae is shown high mortality to extract of Azadirachta indica and Cymbopogon nardus. Thus H. vigintioctomaculata might be controled by using plant extract of eco-friendly agricultural materials in due season.
