The present study aimed to understand the effects of a ${\beta}$-glucan-added abalone feed (Immuneglu$^{TM}$) on the immune parameters, survival rate, and anti-bacterial activity of the abalone Nordotis discus hannai. During the study, spat and adult abalones were fed 0, 0.1, and 1% of Immuneglu$^{TM}$ mixed with artificial feed for 2 weeks, and their immune parameters, survival rate, and anti-bacterial activity were measured. The results showed that abalones fed on Immuneglu$^{TM}$-added feed showed a higher phagocytic rate, survival rate, and anti-bacterial activity against Vibrio alginolyticus, than those with the control treatment. In addition, the nitric oxide concentration, which indicates an inflammatory response, increased in the treatment group. Our study suggests that Immuneglu$^{TM}$ might be a useful additive for increasing the immunity and survival rates of abalones during mass culture.

전복, Nordotis discus의 1$0^{\circ}C$와 2$0^{\circ}C$의 수온구에서 개체크기별 대사와 폐사에 미치는 부니의 영향에 대한 결과는 다음과 같다.1. 수온 -염분별 산소소비율의 일반적 경향은 고온-고염분에서 큰개체보다는 작은개체에서 그 비율리 높게 나타났다.2. 염분별 두 수온간의 온도계수 (Q $_{10)}$ 는 작은 개체에서 1.2-2.9의 병위를 큰개체의 경우 1.5-3.4의 범위를 나타내었으나 개체크기에 관계없이 유사한 양상을 보였다.3. 부니의 농도별 사망율은 작은 개체의 경우 처리 96시간후 2$0^{\circ}C$수온에서 부니 농도1000ppm에서 가장 높았고. 큰 개체의 경우 50ppm에서 가장 낮았다.4. 96시간-반치사농도(LC$_{50}$)는 1$0^{\circ}C$의 경우, 큰개체에서 1076.58 ppm, 작은 개체에서 812.55 ppm이었으며, 2$0^{\circ}C$의 경우는 큰개체에서 698.28 ppm, 작은 개체에서 546.74ppm으로 나타났다.5. 부니의 영향으로 인한 호흡산소소비량은 개체크기에 관계없이 1$0^{\circ}C$에서 보다 2$0^{\circ}C$에서 더욱 높았으며, 1000ppm에서 70% 이상의 감소율을 나타내었다.

These studies were conducted to compare the radulae of six species (Nordotis madaka, N. gigantea, N. discus discus, N. discus hannai, Sulculus diversicolor diversicolor, and S. diversicolor supertexta) of the family Haliotidae in Korea using the scanning electron microscope. As a result, teeth of all species has asymmetry rhipidoglossate form and basic tooth formula of six Haliotids was >50-5-1-5-50< (one central tooth, five lateral teeth, and over the 50 marginal teeth on each side). Therefore it is difficult that all of the species can be detected sharply the difference of interspecies by comparisons of radulae.

The Morphological characteristics of four species of Korean Abalone species, Nordotis discus hannai, N. discus discus, N. gigantea, N. madaka were compared. then Phenotypic traits were characterized. we collected from coast of samchonpo, sacjon-si, Gyeongsangnam-do and jeju-do of korea 69 individual of Nordotis discus hannai from 2013 December to 2014 January, 180 individual of N. discus, 72 individual of N. gigantea and 54 individual of N. madaka respectively then morphological traits of theses species characteristics were compared. The relationship between Shell length (SL), shell breth (SB), shell height (SH) and total weigh (TW) was expressed by the following equation: SB = 0.6346SL + 3.9082 ($R^2$ = 0.8956), SH = 0.2399SL + 3.2609 ($R^2$ = 0.8024), $TW=0.0009SL^{2.5622}$ ($R^2$ = 0.8088) in the Haliotis discus hannai, SB = 0.7249SL + 1.8035 ($R^2$ = 0.9634), SH = 0.3115SL - 11.223 ($R^2$ = 0.8593), $TW=0.0001SL^{2.9696}$ ($R^2$ = 0.8956) in the H. discus discus, SB = 0.7730SL - 1.1931 ($R^2$ = 0.933), SH = 0.2082SL + 3.2627 ($R^2$ = 0.6927), $TW=0.0002SL^{2.8330}$ ($R^2$ = 0.8431) in the Haliotis gigantea, SB = 0.7513SL - 1.0951 ($R^2$ = 0.913), SH = 0.2618SL - 6.1538 ($R^2$ = 0.6927), $TW=0.0001SL^{2.9614}$ ($R^2$ = 0.9353) in the Haliotis madaka.

The availability of fast and inexpensive sequencing technology has enabled researchers around the world to conduct many genome sequencing and expressed sequence tag (EST) projects of diverse organisms. In recent years, whole genome projects have been undertaken to sequence ten species from the phylum Mollusca. These include Aplysia californica, Lottia gigantea, Crassostrea virginica, Spisula solidissima, Mytilus californianus, Biomphalaria glabrata, Crepidula fornicata, Elysia chlorotica, Lottia scutum and Radix balthica. Additionally, complete mitochondrial genomes of 91 mollusks have been reported. In Korea, EST projects have been conducted in nine mollusk species that include Nesiohelix samarangae, Pisidium (Neopisidium) coreanum, Physa acuta, Incilaria fruhstorferi, Meretrix lusoria, Ruditapes philippinarum, Nordotis gigantea, Crassostrea gigas and Laternula elliptica. Finally, the mitochondrial genome projects from the Pacific Oyster (Crassostrea gigas) and the rock shell (Thais clavigera) have been conducted and reported. However, no systemic mollusk genome project has so far been conducted in Korea. In this report, the current status and research trends in mollusk genome study in Korea will be discussed.
