Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris (Xcc), the pathogen of black rot which is the most destructive disease of Brassica vegetables throughout the world. Here, we reported two novel sequence-characterized amplified region (SCAR) markers (i.e., XccR6-60 and XccR6-67) for the detection of Xcc race 6 via re-alignment of the complete genome sequences of Xcc races/strains/pathovars. The specificity of SCAR primer sets was verified by mean of PCR amplification using the genomic DNA template of Xcc races/strains/pathovars and two other plant infecting bacterial strains. The PCR result revealed that the XccR6-60 and XccR6-67 primer sets amplified 692-bp and 917-bp DNA fragments, respectively, specifically from race 6, while no visible amplification was detected in other samples. In addition, the SCAR primers were highly sensitive and can detect from a very low concentration of genomic DNA of Xcc race 6. However, the complete genome sequence of Xcc race 6 is not yet publicly available. Therefore, the cloning and sequencing of XccR6-60 and XccR6-67 fragments from race 6 provide more evidence of the specificity of these markers. These results indicated that the newly developed SCAR markers can successfully, effectively and rapidly detect Xcc race 6 from other Xcc races/strains/pathovars as well as other plant pathogenic bacteria. This is the first report for race-specific molecular markers for Xcc race 6.

Plasmodium vivax is usually considered morbidity in endemic areas of Asia, Central and South America, and some part of Africa. In Thailand, previous studies indicated the genetic diversity of P. vivax in malaria-endemic regions such as the western part of Thailand bordering with Myanmar. The objective of the study is to investigate the genetic diversity of P. vivax circulating in Southern Thailand by using 3 antigenic markers and 8 microsatellite markers. Dried blood spots were collected from Chumphon, Phang Nga, Ranong and, Surat Thani provinces of Thailand. By PCR, 3 distinct sizes of $PvMSP3{\alpha}$, 2 sizes of $PvMSP3{\beta}$ and 2 sizes of PvMSP1 F2 were detected based on the length of PCR products, respectively. PCR/RFLP analyses of these antigen genes revealed high levels of genetic diversity. The genotyping of 8 microsatellite loci showed high genetic diversity as indicated by high alleles per locus and high expected heterozygosity ($H_E$). The genotyping markers also showed multiple-clones of infection. Mixed genotypes were detected in 4.8% of $PvMSP3{\alpha}$, 29.1% in $PvMSP3{\beta}$ and 55.3% of microsatellite markers. These results showed that there was high genetic diversity of P. vivax isolated from Southern Thailand, indicating that the genetic diversity of P. vivax in this region was comparable to those observed other areas of Thailand.

Objectives : Official Arisaematis Rhizoma is described only three species, Arisaema amurnse, Arisaema erubescens, and Arisaema heterophyllum, in national Pharmacopoeia. However, other Arisaema species, Arisaema ringens, Arisaema takesimense and Arisaema serratum, also have been distributed as an inauthentic Arisaematis Rhizoma in the herbal market. To develop a reliable molecular authentication method for Arisaematis Rhizoma in species level, we analyzed DNA barcode regions using six Arisaema species. Methods : Thirty-eight samples of six Arisaema plants species (A. amurense, A. amurense f. serratum, A. heterophyllum, A. takesimense, and A. serratum) were collected from different habitate and nucleotide sequences of DNA barcode regions (rDNA-ITS, matK, and rbcL gene) were analyzed after PCR amplification. The species-specific sequences and phylogenetic relations were estimated using entire sequences of three DNA barcodes based on the analysis of ClastalW and UPGMA, respectively. Results : The comparative analysis of DNA barcode sequences were revealed inter-species specific nucleotides to distinguish the medicinal plant of Arisaema Rhizoma in species levels excluding between A. amurense and its subspecies (A. amurense f. serratum) and A. takesimense and A. serratum, respectively. However, we obtained sequence differences enough to discriminate authentic and inauthentic Arisaematis Rhizoma. Therefore, we suggest that these SNP type molecular genetic markers were an reliable method avaliable to identify official herbal medicines. Conclusions : These marker nucleotides could be useful to identify the official herbal medicines by providing definitive information that can identify original medicinal plant and distinguish from inauthentic adulterants and substitutes.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to report that applying the genetic discrimination method to Pinelliae Tuber is suitable as a countermeasure for the limitations of morphological identification announced publicly in the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety(MFDS). Methods : Randomly selected fifty samples in Pinelliae Tuber imported from China were used for morphological and genetic identification. The morphological identification was applied method announced publicly by the MFDS. The traits of morphological identification were classified as Pinellia ternata, P. tripartita, Pinellia pedatisecta, and Typhonium flagelliforme, according to the formation of tuberous root and tuber morphology. The genetic identifications were conducted by Sequence Characterized Amplified Region(SCAR) marker and DNA barcoding analysis for cross-validation, respectively. SCAR marker was verified according to the presence or absence of amplicon through PCR amplification using species-specific primers. DNA barcoding analysis used sequence information of the matK region. Results : As a result of the morphological identification, 27 out of 50 samples were identified as original species 'P. ternata' of genuine 'Pinelliae Tuber', and 23 were identified as adulterant species 'P. pedatisecta'. Unlike this, the genetic identification was identified as the original species 'P. ternata' in all 50 samples in the SCAR marker and matK regional sequence analysis. Conclusions : Pinelliae Tuber of morphological mutant that can not be classified by morphological identification is imported from China. The SCAR marker would be used as accurate and efficient assays for species identification of the morphological mutant.

자웅이주 식물로 알려진 Schisandra nigra Max. (흑오미자)는 우리나라 제주도에 자생하고 있으며, 열매를 얻기 위해 일부 농가에서 재배되고 있다. 열매 생산을 위해서는 수그루에 비해 암그루의 가치가 더 높기 때문에 묘목단계에서 일찍 성별을 아는 것은 중요하다. 이 연구에서는 S. nigra의 유전체에서 암그루에 특이적인 부위에 관련된 SCAR 마커를 개발하였다. 120개의 무작위로 구성된 RAPD 프라이머 중에서 OPB-03 프라이머가 암그루에서 749 bp의 밴드를 안정적으로 증폭시켰다. 암그루 특이적인 PCR 산물을 분리하여 클로닝한 뒤 염기서열을 결정하였다. 이 암그루 특이적인 절편을 탐침으로 사용한 Southern hybridization에서 암그루에서만 양성반응이 나타나고 수그루에서는 잡종화가 일어나지 않았다. 이러한 결과는 749 bp의 DNA 절편이 암그루의 유전체에는 존재하지만, 수그루에는 없음을 시사하였다. RAPD 마커로부터 암그루에서만 436 bp를 증폭시키는 SCAR 프라이머를 설계하였다. 이 프라이머 쌍은 암그루와 자생지에서 수집한 4개의 자웅동주 식물에서만 예상되었던 크기의 DNA 절편을 증폭하였다. 이 연구에서 개발된 SCAR 마커는 묘목 단계에서 암꽃이 피는 개체를 선발하는데 사용될 수 있을 것이다.

Genetic markers currently used for the discrimination of Lactobacillus delbrueckii subspecies have low efficiency for identification at subspecies level. Therefore, our objective in this study was to select novel genetic markers for accurate identification and discrimination of six L. delbrueckii subspecies based on pangenome analysis. We evaluated L. delbrueckii genomes to avoid making incorrect conclusions in the process of selecting genetic markers due to mislabeled genomes. Genome analysis showed that two genomes of L. delbrueckii subspecies deposited at NCBI were misidentified. Based on these results, subspecies-specific genetic markers were selected by comparing the core and pangenomes. Genetic markers were confirmed to be specific for 59,196,562 genome sequences via in silico analysis. They were found in all strains of the same subspecies, but not in other subspecies or bacterial strains. These genetic markers also could be used to accurately identify genomes at the subspecies level for genomes known at the species level. A real-time PCR method for detecting three main subspecies (L. delbrueckii subsp. delbrueckii, lactis, and bulgaricus) was developed to cost-effectively identify them using genetic markers. Results showed 100% specificity for each subspecies. These genetic markers could differentiate each subspecies from 44 other lactic acid bacteria. This real-time PCR method was then applied to monitor 26 probiotics and dairy products. It was also used to identify 64 unknown strains isolated from raw milk samples and dairy products. Results confirmed that unknown isolates and subspecies contained in the product could be accurately identified using this real-time PCR method.

Due to the large amount of beef imported from the USA to Korea, Korean consumers have become increasingly interested in the country of origin since it can affect market prices. Previously, Bos indicus and Bos taurus-specific markers were developed for the purpose of cattle breed identification, specifically discrimination of Australian beef. In this study, six SNP markers derived from Illumina 50K bovine SNP chip data were used for the discrimination between Korean cattle (Hanwoo) and imported beef from USA. PCR-RFLP genotyping methods were also developed, which indicates that these markers can be applied relatively easily compared to other markers. Taking into account a discrimination rate of 55% based on MC1R marker between Hanwoo and imported beef from USA, two additional markers, SNPs 23803 and 34776, were ideal and resulted in probability of identification of 0.942 and probability of misjudgment of 0.03. Therefore, the markers developed in this study can greatly contribute to the correct discrimination between beef from USA and Hanwoo beef.

고마리의 24개 지역집단으로부터 PCR을 통한 RAPD 분석을 실시하였다. PCR을 통해 증폭된 RAPD절편들은 200-1, 900bp 사이의 구간에서 관찰되었다. 총 16개의 oligoprimer를 이용한 효소중합반응에서 184개의 유효한 polymorphic band markers를 확인하였다. RAPD 분석결과를 기초로 UPGMA 방법에 의한 유집분석을 수행한 결과, 고마리 개체군은 교란형 하천(도시하천, 농촌하천)과 자연적 수환경으로 유집되었고, 교란형 하천 보다 자연적 수환경의 고마리 개체군끼리 유전적 유연관계가 높은 것으로 나타났다. 또한 자연적 수환경과 교란형 하천에 생육하는 고마리 개체군간에 뚜렷한 유전적 한계를 나타내어 이들 사이의 유전적 이질성이 있는 것으로 생각된다.

The sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas [L.] Lam.) is the sixth-most important crop in the world following rice, wheat, potato, maize, and cassava. Four varieties ('Beniharuka', 'Annobeni', 'Pungwonmi', 'Hogammi') and their Japanese cultivars are broadly distributed in South Korea. In the Korean marketplace, sweet potatoes are classified by color and shape, not by variety, making it necessary to differentiate varieties for uniform production and consumption. In this study, molecular markers were developed to distinguish the four varieties of sweet potato using SNPs and genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) analysis via a tetra-primer amplification refractory mutation system (ARMS)-PCR. The results revealed that three variety-specific fragments (164 bp and 241 bp of SNP 04-27457768 and 292 bp of SNP 03-16195623) were amplified in the 'Beniharuka', 'Pungwonmi', and 'Annobeni' sweet potato varieties. There were instances where some varieties produced three bands within the gel electrophoresis, indicating heterozygosity at the given SNPs loci. DNA sequencing analysis also confirmed the results of electrophoresis at the SNPs loci. Overall, these molecular markers would provide a useful, rapid, and, simple evaluation method for the Korean sweet potato marketplace, where the mixing of varieties is a serious issue.
