Out of 20 primers, 6 generated a total of 1,111 major and minor RAPD bands, producing approximately 4.2 average polymorphic bands per primer in shortnecked clam (Ruditapes philippinarum) population from Anmyeondo. The Bandsharing value altered from 0.15 to 0.74, with the average f 0.51, as calculated by bandsharing analysis. The RAPD profiles obtained with DNAs of two populations from Anmyeondo and Seocheon, respectively, were considerably different (0.20 and 0.51, respectively). The varying degrees of difference among populations amy also be of relevance to the restricted hybridization of wild bivalve. Besides gene mapping and breeding applications, PCR-RAPD systems could be very useful for the rapid certification and quality control of seed production and for every projects based on PCR amplification of specific bivalve DNA fragments.

In order to develop a rapid and simple method for testing the purity of radish hybrid seeds using a procedure based on the PCR(Polymerase chain reaction), eighty random primers were screened with the genomic DNA extracted from five day old seedlings of inbred parent lines and their F1 hybrids. Two primers, HRM-02 (5'-GAGACCAGAC-3') and HRM-19(5'-TGAGGCGTGT-3'), generate reproducible unique PCR patterns which can identify each parent lines as well as their hybrids. In actual test of randomly selected hybrid seeds using the two marker primers, the purity tested by one primer was exactly same as that of other primer. It suggests that one marker primer selected in this experiment is enough for the purity test of radish hybrid seeds. We demonstrates the use of RAPD(randomly amplified polymorphic DNAs) markers to identify each of inbred parent lines and hybrids by rapid and simple method.

Previously, we found the operon random primer (OP-5A) that is characteristic the genus Panax by randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis. However, OP-5A primer is limited to apply on the differentiation of only crude herbal plants. To construct more sensitive and unique primers on the genus Panax, ginseng-specific DNA profile (350 bp) that was amplified by OP-5A primer were inserted in a plasmid vector in the TA cloning method and sequenced. We designed the PCR primers (Forward: 5＂-AGGGGTCTTGCTAT AGCGGAAC-3＂, Reverse: 5＂-AGTCTTAATTTCATATTTTCGTATG-3＂) and identified the unique ginseng band (350 bp) in commercial granule products including ginseng extracts as well as crude ginseng plants by nascent PCR.(omitted)

The identification , characterization and quantification of Plasmodium sp. genetic polymorphism are becoming increasingly important in the vaccine development. We investigated polymorphism of Plasmodium vivax GAM-1 (PvGAM-1) gene in 30 Korean isolates. The polymorphic region of the PvGAM-1 gene, corresponding to nt 3792-4029, was amplified using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) followed by sequencing. All of the P. viuax Korean isolates were one type of GAM-1 gene, which were identical to that of the Belem strain. It is suggested that PvGAM-1 could not be used as a genetic marker for identifying or classifying P. vivax Korean isolates. It revealed that the polymorphic pattern as acquired basically by duplication and modification or deletion event of a 33 bp-motif fragment ended by poly guanine (G) and that there were at least three complete and one partial 33 Up-motif sequences within the polymorphic region in the longest cases such as those of South Korean and Belem isolates. In addition, we clustered P. vivax isolates with parsimonious criteria on the basis of PvGAM- 1 polymorphic patterns (insertion/deletion patterns) .

The fungal isolates of Mucorales, directly collected from Korean traditional raw materials of Nuruk (raw material for Korean rice wine) and Meju (raw material for Korean soysauces), were compared with those of Rhizopus oryzae purchased. The fungal isolates of Rhizopus, Mucor, and Absidia mostly identified as based on the morphological observations, were evaluated with the PCR-polymorphic bands. The PCR-polymorphic bands of the genomic DNA reacted with the primers of OPD series tenmer were various, but showed averaged 4 to 6 in the agarose-electrophoresis. The dissimilarity coefficient (DC) between two isolates were compared by the cluster analyses, dendrogams and polar ordinations. The isolates of R. oryzae known. showed several groupings within the lower value of DC and were divided to two groups of amylo-process and other fungi with other purposes. The isolates unidentified were identified by the DC made of this results. Taxonomy of these isolates made by the morphological observations were consistent with those resulted above in most case but not in all aspects. More works were needed with the isolates known for detail informations of Mucorales.

This study describes an efficient approach to the development of DNA markers for use in distinguishing the Scrophularia species that have been used as useful medicinal crops. In order to distinguish Scrophularia species, DNA sequences of rpl-5 region in mitochondrial DNA of Scrophularia species were analysed for detecting sequence variations, and the PCR-RFLP method was applied for developing practicable DNA marker patterns. Several DNA variations were detected by the sequence comparison of rpl-5 region among Scrophularia species. Genetic relationship analysis of Scrophularia species was carried out based on these DNA variations. DNA variations of rpl-5 region were revealed that it was significantly efficient in genetic relationship analysis of Scrophularia species. In addition, Scrophularia species tested in this study were completely discriminated by four polymorphic genotypes by PCR-RFLP combined with Tsp509 I (^AATT) restriction enzyme. Our results suggested that DNA sequence variations of rpl-5 region were sufficiently useful for genetic relationship analysis of Scrophularia species. Polymorphic genotypes by PCR-RFLP using the Tsp509 I enzyme will be useful for discrimination of Scrophularia species as a practicable DNA markers.

Common carp (Cyprinus carpio) and its aquaculture breed Israeli carp samples were obtained from two separate aquaculture facilities under the similar raising conditions during two years in the Kunsan National University, Korea. Genomic DNA was isolated from the common carp and Israeli carp for identification of genetic characteristics and genomic polymorphisms by polymerase chain reaction amplification of DNA using arbitrary primers. The arbitrary primer No.21 (ACTTCGCCAC) yielded the highest number of fragments with the average of 15.0 among the primers used in Israeli carp. A tota1 of 294 polymorphic products in common carp and 336 in Israeli carp were observed by random primers. The average number of polymorphic products generated by random RAPD primer No. 2 (GTAGAC-CCGT) showed 8.0 in Israeli carp. On average, each random RAPD primer produced 5.4 amplified polymorphic products in common carp and 6.2 in Israeli carp. An average genetic similarity (BS value) was 0.44$\pm$0.05 within the common carp and 0.32$\pm$0.04 within the Israeli carp. The degree of similarity frequency (BS) between two carps was 0.67 as generated by the primer No. 19 (GACGGATCAG). The average level of bandsharing was 0.57$\pm$0.03 between the two carps. Accordingly, the two carp populations were genetically a little distant. The electrophoretic analysis of PCR-RAPD products showed middle levels of variation between the two carp populations. This result implies that the genetic diversity among intra-population may be higher when compared with that between the two carps. The RAPD polymorphism generated by these random primers might be used as a genetic marker for populations or lines identification in important aquacultural carp.

Randomly amplified polymorphic DNA(RAPD) analysis was applied to detect the molecular polymorphisms in Gentiana scabra var. buergeri. A high level of molecular variability was found among wild plants and cultivars. In genetic analysis, eight of twenty primers were selected and 54 amplification products ranged 2. 2 to 0.2 kb were compared. Twenty - nine amplified products showed polymorphic, while five were monomorphic. Twenty of line specific bands were found. In genetic similarity and cluster analysis using PCR products, three wild plants collected from Naejangsan, Daedunsan and Keojedo and one cultivar Seochunjaerae were grouped into one cluster, while cultivar Jinbujaerae and Japanese line separated into another clusters, respectively. The identification of DNA polymorphisms by the RAPD technique will facilitate the selection of the lines from different origin.
