본 연구는 한국 재래산양의 ${\beta}$-lactoglobulin(${\beta}$-LG) 유전자 발현조절부위의 특성을 구명하기 위하여 PCR기법으로 specific primer를 이용하여 ${\beta}$-LG 발현조절부위를 증폭한 후 염기서열을 분석하여 Sheep종의 ${\beta}$-LG유전자 발현조절부위의 염기서열상의 차이를 분석하였다. 한국 재래산양의 genomic DNA로부터 PCR기법을 이용하여 ${\beta}$-LG 유전자 발현조절부위를 증폭한 결과 Sheep종에서 보고된 바와 같이 1,077bp의 단편크기로 증폭되었음을 확인할 수 있었다. Sheep종에서 보고된 ${\beta}$-LG 발현조절 부위의 염기서열과 한국재래산양에서 분석된 염기서열간의 차이는 총 897개의 염기중 46개의 nucleotide에서 차이를 나타내어 94.9%의 상동성을 보였다. 특히 한국재래산양과 Sheep종간 염기서열상의 차이는 Sheep종의 T염기가 재래산양의 C염기로 치환되었거나 반대로 Sheep종의 C염기가 재래산양에서 T염기로 치환되어 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 이상의 결과에서 ${\beta}$-LG유전자 발현조절부위의 염기서열은 재래산양과 Sheep 종간에 높은 상동성을 보였으나 이들 종간의 발현조절부위의 염기서열상의 차이에 대한 유전자 발현조절 관계와 전사요소는 앞으로 연구가 더 진행되어야 할 것으로 사료된다.

Four Korean native cattle (KNC) breeds-Hanwoo, Chikso, Heugu, and Jeju black-are entered in the Domestic Animal Diversity Information System of the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). The objective of this study was to assess the genetic diversity, phylogenetic relationships and population structure of these KNC breeds (n = 120) and exotic breeds (Holstein and Charolais, n = 56). Thirty microsatellite loci recommended by the International Society for Animal Genetics/FAO were genotyped. These genotypes were used to determine the allele frequencies, allelic richness, heterozygosity and polymorphism information content per locus and breed. Genetic diversity was lower in Heugu and Jeju black breeds. Phylogenetic analysis, Factorial Correspondence Analysis and genetic clustering grouped each breed in its own cluster, which supported the genetic uniqueness of the KNC breeds. These results will be useful for conservation and management of KNC breeds as animal genetic resources.

Sixteen primary free amino acids were determined for each 10 longissimus muscles of Yorkshir, Landrace and Korean native black pig. Eight amino acids at 7 d classified three breeds at ca. 80% confidence. The difference in free amino acids for aged meats could be one of factors responsible for more desirable palatability of Korean native black pig.

조류에서 미토콘드리아내 유전자인 cytochrome c oxidase I(COI)는 종 구분을 위한 바이오마커로 많이 이용이 되고 있다. 본 연구는 이 유전자의 변이를 이용하여 닭의 품종 구분이 가능한지를 실험하기 위하여 실시하였다. 그 결과 한국 재래닭은 공시축으로 사용한 산란계인 White Leghorn과 육계인 Cornish가 가지고 있는 단일염기다형을 모두 가지고 있는 것으로 판명되어 품종구분을 위한 마커로 사용하기에는 적합하지 않은 것으로 확인되었다. 그러나 본 연구 결과를 통하여 한국재래계가 육계와 산란계의 특성을 모두 가지고 있다는 기존의 학설을 뒷받침하였으며, 품종 구분을 위하여 미토콘드리아와 genomic DNA 유래 단일염기다형 선발의 중요성을 확인할 수 있었다.

This study was carried out to assess whether feeding of alcohol-fermented feeds (AFF) affects the nutritional metabolism and growth characteristics of Korean native steers. Ten steers were randomly assigned to one of two treatment groups. The dietary treatments were AFF (50% commercial beef cattle feed+30% alcohol-fermented soybean curd dregs+20% rice straw) and control (80% commercial beef cattle feed+20% rice straw). The change of serum metabolites and growth characteristics were measured every two months during the whole twelve months experimental period and the relationships between serum metabolites and growth characteristics were simultaneously analyzed. Four hours after feeding AFF, serum alcohol concentration reached its peak with a significantly higher value than that after control feeding (11.9 and 4.9 mg/dl, respectively). Serum glucose and inorganic phosphorus (IP) concentrations (63.1 and 8.4 mg/dl, respectively) of steers fed AFF were higher than those (56.6 and 7.0 mg/dl) fed the control diet. In both treatments, the serum glucose concentration rapidly increased when body weight (BW) of the steer reached about 600kg, while IP concentrations were rapidly diminished at that BW. Lower concentrations of both blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and cholesterol were observed in steers fed AFF up to 450 kg of BW. The IP concentration was correlated with concentrations of BUN, cholesterol and glucose in AFF fed cattle but not in the cattle fed control diets. Average daily gain was higher in steers fed AFF than steers fed control, particularly during the growing stage of cattle. These findings indicated a capability of AFF to improve BW gain of Korean native steers by decreased protein degradation as well as increased fat synthesis.

Objective: This study was conducted to investigate polymorphisms of the melanocortin-4 receptor (MC4R) and insulin like growth factor 2 (IGF2) genes and to evaluate the growth traits affected by such polymorphisms in Thai native (Kradon) pigs. Methods: Blood samples and productive data from 91 Kradon pigs were collected. DNA was extracted and quantified, the IGF2 and MC4R genes were amplified, and the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) produces were digested using the PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) technique. Genotyping was performed, and the association between genotypes and growth traits on the birth and weaning weights were evaluated. Results: The IGF2 intron7 g.162G>C variations in Kradon pigs were found in three genotypes: i) GG, ii) GC, and iii) CC. The GG genotype frequency was the highest followed by the GC and CC genotypes. The frequencies of the G and C alleles were 0.703 and 0.297, respectively. The MC4R genotype was found in only one genotype (GG). The IGF2 gene pattern was not associated with birth weight traits, whereas the IGF2 gene pattern was related to the weaning weight trait in Kradon pigs. Pigs with the CC and GC genotypes had higher weaning weights than ones with the GG genotype (p<0.001). Conclusion: Thai native Kradon pigs with the CC and GC genotypes of the IGF2 gene have higher weaning weights than pigs with the GG genotype.

The use of Korean native chicken is increasing, and the discovery of new genetic resources is very important from both economic and genetic conservation points of view. In this study, mtDNA D-loop sequences from 272 privately-owned Korean native chickens from a Hyunin farm were investigated. Seventeen nucleotide substitutions were identified from the sequence analysis and they were classified as 6 haplotypes. Previously investigated haplotypes in five Korean native chicken populations have been compared with the Hyunin chicken population. The results indicated that two haplotypes, H10 and H15, in the Hyunin chicken population were not previously identified in other Korean native chicken populations, representing 33.09% (90/272) and 1.1% (3/272) of the Hyunin population, respectively. On the other hand, four other haplotypes were identical to those of a previous study of Korean native chicken populations. This result is indicative of conservation strategies of Hyunin chicken populations for expanding the genetic diversity in the Korean native chicken population.

Recently, the Korean government has been trying to conserve the genetic resources of native chicken. Although the production aspect is important, consumers should also value the native chicken in order for this market to grow. As certification systems are used to inform consumers about the value of a product, this study aims to investigate certification systems for chicken in France. Two regions were selected: Alsace and Bresse. We conducted a value-chain analysis of activities related to native chicken in each of these two regions, including hatching, breeding, slaughtering and processing, distributing, and marketing activities. We found that various certification systems were used not only to inform consumers about the value of the native chicken but also to protect biodiversity. Also, geographical indication, one kind of certification system, was utilized to establish higher quality based on the characteristics of each region. Implications pertinent to a domestic certification system for Korean native chickens were suggested.

본 연구는 한국 재래 산양 112두와 유산양인 Saanen종 7두의 혈액으로부터 genomic DNA를 추출하고, PCR-RFLP 방법에 의해 $\beta$-casein 유전자의 특성을 분석하여 한국재래산양의 효율적인 유전자원의 보존 및 개량을 위한 기초 자료로 제공하고자 실시하였다. 한국재래산양의 genomic DNA로부터 PCR기법을 이용하여 $\beta$-casein의 유전자좌를 증폭한 결과 각각 481bp 크기의 단편이 양호하게 증폭되었음을 확인하였다. $\beta$-casein 유전자 좌의 증폭산물에 대한 Bal I의 제한효소를 처리한 결과, $\beta$-casein AB형은 481bp, 284bp 및 197bp의 단편을, 그리고 BB형은 284bp와 197bp의 단편을 한국재래산양과 유산양인 Saanen 종에서 확인 할 수 있었다. 유전자형 빈도에 있어서는 한국재래산양에서 $\beta$-casein AB 및 BB의 빈도는 각각 6.25 및 93.75%이었고, 유산양인 Saanen 종은 각각 57.14 및 42.86%이었다. 유전자빈도에 있어서는 한국재래산양의 $\beta$-casein A 및 B의 빈도가 각각 0.031 및 0.969이었고, Saanen 종에서는 각각 0.286 및 0.714의 빈도를 보였다. 한국재래산양의 $\beta$-casein 유전자의 염기서열과 이미 보고되어 있는 goat의 염기서열(GeneBank accession Number M90556)간에는 총 11개의 염기서열에 차이를 나타내어 97.71%의 상동성을 보였다. 따라서 한국재래산양의 $\beta$-casein 유전자의 다형성과 염기서열 분석에 의한 분자유전학적 특성의 규명은 한국재래산양의 유전자원의 보존 및 개량을 위한 기초 및 응용 자료로 이용될 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.
