This study was conducted to determine grazing intensity of growing Korean native goats(Capra hircus coreanae) on mountainous pasture. It was carried out to obtain basic information for improvement of mountainous pasture management and establishing feeding system of Korean native goat. A total of 20 goats were grouped by feeding systems [A mountainous pasture grazing group (Concentrated feed of 1.5% body weight, treatment 1, T1, n=10) and a barn feeding group (TMR, treatment 2, T2), n=10] to conduct study from April to September. The average forage productivity of the mountain pasture was $500.9{\pm}61.41kg/ha$. The average dry matter intake in T1 was 0.64 and the calculated grazing intensity was 21 head/ha. In productivity, when the two treatments(T1, T2) were compared, the dry matter intake was about two to three times the difference. The average daily gain per day during the experiment was 63.3 in the mountain pasture and 120 g in barn feeding. When grazing, considering mountainous pasture productivity it is necessary to increase the productivity through proper feeding. The feed costs of black goats raised by grazing on the grassland in the same period showed an average 75% reduction compared to barn feeding. As a result of this study, it can be expected that a considerable reduction of feed costs can be expected in the breeding of Korean native black goat using the mountain pasture.

Hemal nodes and hemolymph nodes are lymphoid organs that share morphologic and functional characteristics of lymph nodes and spleens. The aim of the present study was to obtain new informations on the distinct morphological structures of hemal nodes and hemolymph nodes according to ages, and to get the basic data for their functions in Korean native goats. Goats were divided into 5 groups, consisting of 3 animals aged 1, 3, 6, 10 and 12 months, respectively. Ultrastructural features of the organs were observed by transmission and scanning electron microscopes. The sinuses of hemal nodes and hemolymph nodes were lined by endothelial-like reticular cells which had euchromatin-rich nuclei and many cytoplasmic processes, surrounding collagen fibrils. Macrophages containing phagocytosed erythrocytes were often noted in the diffuse lymphatic tissues of hemal nodes and hemolymph nodes. Some mast cells were in contact with the plasma cells near the blood vessel. Hemal nodes and hemolymph nodes had venous sinusal-like vessels which were different from the deep sinus. The lymph vessels with valves were observed in the capsule of the hemolymph node. There were no ultrastructural differences of the organs in the age different groups of the animals. These results suggest that hemal nodes and hemolymph nodes may take part in hemopoiesis, blood filtration and immune reaction in Korean native goats.

본 연구는 산림부산물과 국내 유기농부산물의 사료가치와 유기흑염소 생산에 기초적인 자료를 얻고자 산지 초지유형에 따른 흑염소의 사료 섭취량, 소화율 및 질소 축적율에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 공시축은 한국재래흑염소이었으며, 사양 시험에서는 흑염소 40두를 4처리구(개량목초구, 유기목초구, 산야초구, 수엽류구)로 나누어 처리구당 10두씩, 소화율 시험에서는 처리구당 3두씩 완전임의 배치하여 시험을 실시하였다. 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 사양시험기간 동안의 총증체량과 일당증체량은 개량목초구, 유기목초구, 산야초구, 수엽류구 순으로 낮아졌다(p<0.05). 건물섭취량, 가소화 건물섭취량, 건물소화율 및 질소축적율은 개량목초구가 가장 높았다(p<0.05). 이상의 결과를 종합해 보면, 산림 부산물을 조사료원으로 이용하고 국내 유기농부산물을 보충사료로 급여하여 방목사육된 유기흑염소는 다소 생산성이 낮으나 안정성이 높기 때문에 육용보다는 약용형태의 소비가 바람직하다고 사료되며, 낮은 생산성을 높이기 위해선 보충사료에 추가적인 영양소 공급이 반드시 필요하다고 판단된다.

The present study was conducted to find out the changes of progesterone levels in pre and post partum by the PGF2$\alpha$ administration to control artificial parturition in Korean native goats. A total of 24 goats were offered for this experiment. The animals were divided into 4 goats per treatment by the administration time(142, 145 or 148 day of pregnancy). Blood samples were taken from jagular vein pre-post partum by the PGF2$\alpha$ intramuscular administration. The progesterone in serum was assayed by radioimmunoassay. The serum progesterone level in late-pregnant goats averaged 4.85$\pm$0.55ng/ml, 4.05$\pm$0.47ng/ml or 2.76$\pm$0.25ng/ml on 142, 145 or 148 days of gestation. After the intramuscular injection with PGF2$\alpha$ for inducing parturition, it decreased remarkably to below 1.0ng/ml and to the base level(0.4~0.6ng/ml) at day 1 after parturition. And then this base level of progesterone was maintained until the final examination at 9 days of postpartum. No significant difference was found in the serum levels of progesterone between the doses treated for parturition induction. It was concluded that exogenous PGF2$\alpha$, administrated intramuscularly, induced premature parturition with causing withdrawal of progesterone levels for triggering luteolysis.

This study was made to determine possibility of the electromyographic diagnosis of the experimentally induced adhesion of rumen to abdominal wall in goats. In goats with experimentally induced ruminal adhesion, the electromyograms were recorded at the abdominal wall accompanying with the ruminal motility. There were, however, no electromyographic recordings during ruminal motility in goats without ruminal adhesions. It was concluded that the electromygrams could be available for the diagnosis of the ruminal adhesion to abdomieal wall in ruminants.

정소내 성숙한 정자를 생산하는 전능성을 가진 정조세포는 체세포와 동일수준으로 외래 유전자를 삽입 가능한 것으로 알려져 있다. 그러나, 이들 세포가 반수체 이후의 단계로 분화한 경우에는 왜래 유전자를 삽입하기보다는 단순히 결합하는 능력이 있는 것으로 알려져 있다 . 따라서, 본 연구는 외래 유전자를 정소실질내 주입함으로써 형질전환 동물생산이 가능한지에 대하여 검토하기 위하여, 한쪽 정소를 거세한 한국 재래산 양을 사용하였다. Liposome /DNA 복합체를 1 : 2의 비율로 희석한 후 정소실실내에 주입하여 정자를 경유한 유전자 전이의 가능성을 확인하였다. 또한 동결보존한 정액을 인공수정하기 위하여 PGF$_2$$\alpha$(0.15mg/kg/BW)를 근육 주사함으로써 인위적으로 발정을 유도한 후, 인공수정을 이용하여 임신과 분만을 유도하였다. 이들 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. PCR에 의하여, 유전자 도입 후 채취한 정액에서 외래유전자는 80일 이상 존재하였으며, 가장 높은 전이율은 40 일째 얻어졌다. 이들 결과는 정조세포에 외래 유전자가 성공적으로 삽입되었음을 제안하였다. 2. 23 두 (평균 96 % 의 발정 유기율)의 재래산양에게 인공수정을 실시한 결과 이들 중 4두가 임신되어 7두의 자양이 생산되었다. 3. 생산된 7두의 산자중 genome DNA를 추출하여 PCR 및 Southern blotting을 실시 한 결과 2두가 형질전환으로 확인되었다. 이상의 결과로서 정자를 매개로 한 정소실질내 외래 유전자의 주입법은 형질전환의 생산을 위한 매우 유용한 수단으로 사용 가능함을 제안하였다.

한국재래염소의 계통유전학적 위치를 확인하기 위해서 한국재래염소 4개 집단 48두를 공시한 후 mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) 내부의 cytochrome b 유전자의 전체서열을 분석하였다. 또한 이 서열들을 이용하여 한국재래염소의 유전적 다양성을 확인하였고, 다른 나라의 여러 염소품종들과의 계통유전학적 분석을 수행하였다. 한국재래염소 cytochrome b 유전자 서열을 토대로 3개의 염기변이가 동정되었으며, 그 중 2개는 아미노산 치환을 일으키는 missense 변이로 확인되었다. 또한 4개의 haplotype으로 분류되었는데, 이 중 3개는 중국 재래염소 품종에서도 나타났으나 다른 나라의 품종에서는 확인되지 않았다. 계통유전학적 분석 결과 모든 재래흑염소는 4개의 clade를 형성하였으나, 5개의 야생염소와는 독립적인 그룹을 형성하였다. 한국재래염소는 mtDNA D-loop에 분류되는 여러 모계혈통 중 모계혈통-A로 추정되는 clade 1에 포함되었다. 한국재래염소에서 보여진 각각의 haplotype은 중국 재래염소품종들과 상대적으로 가까운 유전적 유연관계를 보였다. 기존 연구결과와 본 연구의 분석결과를 종합해보면 과거에 일부 중국 재래 염소품종이 한반도로 유입되어 한국재래염소의 기원 및 가축화에 영향을 주었을 것으로 사료된다.

China has numerous native domestic goat breeds, but so far there has been no extensive study on genetic diversity, population demographic history, and origin of Chinese goats. To determine the origin and genetic diversity of Chinese goats, we analyzed the complete mtDNA D-loop sequences of 183 goats from 13 breeds. The haplotype diversity value found in each breed ranged from 0.9333 to 1.0000. The nucleotide diversity value ranged from 0.006337 to 0.025194. Our results showed that there were four mtDNA lineages (A, B, C and D), in which lineage A was predominant, lineage B was moderate, and lineages C and D were at low frequencies. Lineages C and D were observed only in the Tibetan breed. The results revealed multiple maternal origins of Chinese domestic goats. There was weaker geographical structuring in the 13 Chinese goat populations, which suggested that there existed high gene flow among goat populations caused by the extensive transportation of goats in the course of history.

The supplementation effects of sea tangle powders were determined for the meat quality in Korean native black goats. A total 90 castrated male black goats at 3-month age were divided into 3 dietary treatment groups: control (basal diet + mineral block), T1 (0.3% sea tangle feeding with the basal diet), T2 (0.9% sea tangle feeding with the basal diet). At 9-months feeding, 10 goats per treatment group were slaughtered, and the longissimus dorsi muscle samples were vacuum-packed, and subsequently analyzed for physicochemical evaluations. Analysis revealed decrease in the shear force and TBARS values of meat in the sea tangle dietary groups (p < 0.05). The T2 group exhibited increased levels of unsaturated fatty acids such as C16:1, C18:1, C18:2, and C20:4 (p < 0.05). The content of free amino acids with desirable taste such as aspartic acid, glutamic acid, glycine, histidine, and serine were higher in T2, whereas alanine content was higher in both sea tangle dietary groups, as compared to control (p < 0.05). These data indicate that feeding dietary sea tangle as an alternative mineral source results in an improvement in the physicochemical profiles of goat meat.

The protein-bound iodine-131, the concentration of iodine-131 in blood, and the excretion rate of I-131 through urine and feces were observed in nine Korean native goats, 3 months age, following administration of $3{\mu}C$ of I-131 per kg of body weight. No signiant differences were found due to sex and castration. 1. The average protein-bound iodine-131 conversion ratio of goats was 16.7% in 24 hours. In castrated group, the lowest proteinbound iodine-131 conversion ratio was observed. 2. The average concentration of iodine-131 in bleed, increased very rapidly by 2 hours(4.75%) and rapidly decreased within 6 hours(0.73%). 3. The average excretion rate of I-131 through urine was highest in 24 hours(19.00%) and decreased rapidly within 48 hours(5.32%). 4. The average excretion ration rate of I-131 though feces was highest in 24 hours(2.55%), and decreased slowly.
