Sixty-three isolates of Lentinus edodes obtained from Korea were used to assess the genetic similarity by isozyme polymorphisms and random amplified polymorphic DNA patterns. The activities of esterase, peroxidase and acid phosphatase displayed 10, 7 and 3 distinct isozyme patterns, respectively. By combining the isozyme patterns obtained with the 3 enzymes, every isolate showed its own distinct electrophoretic phenotypes. A distance matrix calculated between all pairs of 63 electrophoretic phenotypes based on the presence or abscence of isozyme bands were analyzed by the group-average method. Results of the cluster analysis assinged the 63 phenotypes into six major groups. In the analysis of random amplified polymorphic DNA patterns, all isolates of Lentinus edodes were devided into five RAPD groups.

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.

Five broiler chicken lines, namely HC, BPB2, CPB2, PB2 and UM1, involving in a selection program and differing in selection intensity and genetic background, were screened for randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) polymorphism using 10 selected decamer primers. Nine primers amplified the genomic DNA, generating 200 to 2,500 bp and all detected polymorphism between lines. Out of 74 bands scored using these primers, 34 (50.0%) were found to be polymorphic. The number of polymorphic loci ranged from 3 to 6 with an average of 4.33. Lines differed considerably for within-population genetic similarity estimated by band frequency (WS = 93.55 to 99.25). Between-line genetic similarity estimates based on band sharing as well as on band frequency ranged from 71.35 to 86.45 and from 73.38 to 87.68, respectively. Lines HC and PB2 were the most closely related to the other, while BPB2 and CPB2 appeared to be more distant from each other. The between-line genetic distance based on both band sharing and band frequency revealed the similar trends as for Between-line genetic similarity. Based on BS and BF criteria, BPB2 and CPB2 as well as PB2 and UM1 lines can be merged to launch a new genetic group for further progress in biometrical objectives. A phylogenetic tree, derived using Nei's coefficient of similarity revealed the different pattern of genetic distance between lines.

Through a screening and selection approach method, decamer random markers were used in a technique called random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) assay with 252 genomic DNAs isolated from four major Haimen chicken populations: Rugao (62), Jiangchun (62), Wan-Nan (63) and Cshiqishi (65). A total of 3-score decamer random primers (S241-S260, S1081-S1100 and S1341-S1360) were employed in the preliminary RAPD-polymerase chain reaction (RAPD-PCR) assay with 50 random template DNA samples from all the populations. Four (6.67%) of the primers that produced obvious polymorphic patterns, interpretable and reproducible bands were selected and used with both the individual DNAs from each population and with pooled DNA samples of the four populations in subsequent analyses. The selected primers produced a total of 131 fragments with molecular size ranging from 835 to 4,972 base pairs (bp) when used with the individual DNAs; 105 (80.15%) of these fragments were polymorphic. With the pooled DNAs, 47 stable and characteristic bands with molecular size ranging from 840 to 4,983 bp, of which 23 (48.94%) polymorphic, were also generated. The band-sharing coefficient (BSC) calculated for the individuals in the population and among populations of bulked samples was between 0.8247 (Rugao) and 0.9500 (Cshiqishi); for pairwise populations, it was between 0.7273 (Rugao vs. Wan-Nan) and 0.9367 (Jiangchun vs. Cshiqishi) chicken populations. Using the BSC for individual and pairwise populations, the Nei's standard genetic distances between the chicken populations were determined and ranged from 0.0043 (Jiangchun vs. Cshiqishi) to 0.1375 (Rugao vs. Cshiqishi). The reconstructed dendrogram linked the Jiangchun and Cshiqishi chickens as closely related populations, followed by Wan-Nan, while the Rugao was the most genetically distant among the populations.

Inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) analysis were used to assess genetic diversity among 18 genotypes of watermelon (Citrullus lanatus Thunb.) including breeding lines and commercial varieties. The 21 ISSR primers selected from 100 primers were showed the amplification of 105 reproducible fragments ranging from about 200 bp to 5000 bp. A total of 58 DNA fragments were polymorphic with an average 2.7 polymorphic bands per primer. The polymorphic primers were divided into 18 anchored primers and 3 non anchored primers. All of the anchored primers were di-nucleotide repeat motif, and was more polymorphic than non anchored primers. Eighteen watermelon genotypes were classified into two large groups. Clustering was in some accordance with the division of fruit shape into 18 watermelon. Therefore, ISSR markers may be suitable for variety discrimination and for constructing a linkage map of watermelon.

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.

Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis is based on the amplification of random DNA segment using a single arbitratrary primer. For typing Salmonella spp., polymorphic DNA patterns identified by this method can be used. To select the primers for RAPD typing Salmonella spp., the performances of 20 primers were compared by analyzing 16 Salmonella spp. reference strains. Reproducible electrophoresis patterns were obtained. Among the 20 primers tested, 4 primers (A, OPG04, OPG10, OPL03) showed better differentiation than the others. At the time discrimination index, band clarity, band number and difficulty of band scoring were considered. These primers will be useful for typing Salmonella spp. in the future. Curretly, we are under investigation for the RAPD typing of contaminated Slmonella spp. for the risk analysis of pork processing plant using the primers.
