Genetic diversity of 21 Korean Phytophthora capsici isolates was analyzed by using several molecular markers such as random amplified polymorphic DNA(RAPD), M-13, microsatellite and random amplified microsatellite sequences(RAMS). The overall average similarity coefficient among the isolates was 86% based on the combined data obtained by the molecular markers. No molecular markers were found to be associated with hosts or geographic regions. In addition to RAPD, analysis based on repeated sequences such as $(GTG)_5$, M-13 and RAMS could be used to assess population structure of P. capsici.

Random amplified polymorphic DAN markers were characterized for three taxonomically problematic Penicillium species : P. aurantiogriseum var. Aurantiogriseum, P. verrucosum and P. puberulum, as well as for 25 species of mono, bi-, and terverticillate Penicillia. The relationships among mono, bi-, and terverticillate Penicillium species were determined from these RAPD markers. Eight species from mono-, eight from bi-, and nine from terverticilate Penicillia were examined. With 14 randomly chosen 10-mer primes, a 310 character by 25 species matrix was generated. Phenetic analysis separated the 25 species into three genetically distinct groups that correspond to the different arrangements of penicilli (mono-, bi-, and terverticillate). The results of this study suggest that P. aurantiogriseum var. aurantiogriseum, P. VERRUCOSUM, AND P. puberulum represent genetically distinct species, and that P. vulpinum should be included in terverticilate Penicillia. Phenogram branching patterns indicated that biverticillate species are genetically more similar to monoverticilate species than they are to terverticillate species.

구상나무 개체목으로부터 채취한 48개의 배유조직을 이용해서 PCR 방법에 의해 생성된 inter-simple sequence repeats(I-SSR) 표지자를 분석했다. 예비실험에서 6개의 배유조직을 이용해서 35개의 primer를 검색했으며, 그들 중에서 PCR 반응이 가장 잘되는 19개 primer를 선정해서 48개 배유조직을 이용한 본 실험에 사용했다. 카이자승 검정 결과, 19개 primer에 의해 증폭된 51개의 증폭산물이 5% 유의 수준에서 멘델의 분리비(1:1)에 따라 차대에 유전됨을 확인할 수 있었다. 멘델 유전자좌로 확인된 51개 표지자들의 게놈내 분포양상을 확인하기 위해서 연관분석을 수행한 결과, 51개 유전자좌들이 상호간에 서로 연관되어있지 않은 것으로 확인되어 이들이 전체 게놈상에 고르게 분포하고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 본 연구에서 관찰된 51개 유전자좌들이 게놈상에 고르게 분포하고 있다는 특성 때문에 게놈상의 특정부위에 편중되지 않은 유전정보를 얻을 수 있다는 장점이 있다. 즉, 기존의 RAPD 표지자들 중 상당수가 독립적인 연관군을 형성하는 것으로 알려져 있기 때문에 이들 연관군이 위치한 특정 부위의 DNA를 증폭하여 분석하는 RAPD 표지자에 비해서 I-SSR 표지자들이 유전 다양성을 추정하는데 더 유용한 표지자로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 생각되며, 이들 표지자들이 독립적인 진화의 과정을 겪을 것으로 기대되기 때문에 cladistic 방법에 의해 진화적 유연관계를 추정하는데 더 적합한 표지자로 생각된다.

소나무 단일개체에서 채취한 풍매종자 중 임의로 선택한 96개의 반수체 genome을 이용하여 RAPD 및 I-SSR PCR 증폭산물을 분석하였다. RAPD 분석용 primer 200개와 I-SSR 분석 용 primer 90개를 screen하여 증폭산물의 분획양상이 선명한 RAPD primer 45개와 I-SSR primer 22개를 선택하여 PCR을 수행하였다. 45개의 RAPD primer중 25개와 22개의 I-SSR primer중 18개를 사용한 PCR 분석결과에서 멘델의 유전양식을 만족하는 52개 (2.08/primer)와 46개 (2.56/primer)의 다형성 유전자좌를 각각 확인하였다. 멘델의 유전양식을 만족하는 96개의 다형성 유전자좌를 대상으로 LOD 3.0에서 two-point 연관분석을 수행한 결과 총 63개(35개의 RAPD와 26개의 I-SSR)의 유전자화가 20개의 연관군에 속하는 것이 확인되었다. 총 연관거리는 1097.8 cM이었으며, 유전자좌간 평균연관 거리는 25.5 cM, 최소 및 최대연관 거리는 각각 4.3 cM 및 54.9 cM이었다. 그리고 20개의 연관군 중 14개의 연관군이 RAPD와 I-SSR 유전자좌의 통합에 의해서 형성된 연관군이었다. 즉, 52개의 RAPD와 46개의 I-SSR 유전자좌를 각각 분석한 결과보다 길고 새로운 연관군이 형성되었다. 보다 정밀한 유전자 연관지도를 작성하기 위해서는 보다 많은 수의 DNA marker가 필요하다고 판단되며, 본 연구의 결과는 소나무의 유용 유전자의 확인 및 생장과 재질과 같은 유용형질에 대한 QTL의 위치를 결정하는 데 기초자료가 될 것이다.

Germplasm characterization and evolutionary process in viable populations are important links between the conservation and utilization of plant genetic resources. Here, an investigation is made, based on molecular and biochemical techniques for assessing and exploiting the genetic variability in germplasm characterization of taro, which would be useful in plant breeding and ex situ conservation of taro plant genetic resources. Geographical differentiation and phylogenetic relationships of Indian taro, Colocasia esculenta (L.) Schott, were analyzed by random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and isozyme of seven enzyme systems with specific reference to the Muktakeshi accession, which has been to be proved resistant to taro leaf blight caused by P. colocasiae. The significant differentiations in Indian taro cultivars were clearly demonstrated by RAPD and isozyme analysis. RAPD markers showed higher values for genetic differentiation among taro cultivars and lower coefficient of variation than those obtained from isozymes. Genetic differentiation was evident in the taro accessions collected from different regions of India. It appears that when taro cultivation was introduced to a new area, only a small fraction of genetic variability in heterogeneous taro populations was transferred, possibly causing random differentiation among locally adapted taro populations. The selected primers will be useful for future genetic analysis and provide taro breeders with a genetic basis for selection of parents for crop improvement. Polymorphic markers identified in the DNA fingerprinting study will be useful for screening a segregating population, which is being generated in our laboratory aimed at developing a taro genetic linkage map.

Six parent and their 12 gamma ray-induced somatic flower colour mutants of garden rose were characterized to discriminate the mutants from their respective parents and understanding the genetic diversity using Random amplification of polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers. Out of 20 primers screened, 14 primers yielded completely identical fragments patterns. The other 7 primers gave highly polymorphic banding patterns among the radiomutants. All the cultivars were identified by using only 7 primers. Moreover, individual mutants were also distinguished by unique RAPD marker bands. Based on the presence or absence of the 48 polymorphic bands, the genetic variations within and among the 18 cultivars were measured. Genetic distance between all 18 cultivars varied from 0.40 to 0.91, as revealed by Jaccard's coefficient matrix. A dendrogram was constructed based on the similarity matrix using the Neighbor Joining Tree method showed three main clusters. The present RAPD analysis can be used not only for estimating genetic diversity present in gamma ray-induced mutants but also for correct identification of mutant/new varieties for their legal protection under plant variety rights.

Eleven Italian ryegrass cultivars were examined for their genetic polymorphisms and phylogenetic relationships using randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers. In RAPD analysis of 34 random primers, 96 of total 162 bands obtained from 16 primers were polymorphic and sizes of polymorphic band ranged between 0.5 and 1.5kb. Number of bands amplified per primer was varied from 3 to 16 and average number was 14.8. Phylogenetic relationship among cultivars based on the RAPD analysis was examined using UPGMA computer program. In pairwise genetic similarity test of 11 Italian ryegrass cultivars, Grazer and Orlando showed highest coefficient of genetic similarity as 0.740, whereas Marshall and Orlando was lowest as 0.438. Eleven Italian ryegrass cultivars were grouped into 3 major clusters and genetic distance of clusters ranged between 0.567 and 0.646, indicating low level of genetic variation.

A randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis was used to identify the species- and population-specific markers of abalone; Haliotis asinina, H. ovina, and H. varia in Thai waters. Fifteen species-specific and six population-specific RAPD markers were identified. In addition, an 1650 bp band (UBC195) that was restricted to H. ovina from the Gulf of Thailand (east) was also found. All of the specific RAPD markers were cloned and sequenced. Twenty pairs of primers were designed and specificity-tested (N = 12 and 4 for target and non-target species, respectively). Seven primer pairs (CUHA1, 2, 4, 11, 12, 13, and 14) were specifically amplified by H. asinina DNA, whereas a single pair of primers showed specificity with H. ovina (CUHO3) and H. varia (CUHV1), respectively. Four primer pairs, including CUHA2, CUHA12, CUHO3, and CUHV1, were further examined against 216 individuals of abalone (N = 111, 73, and 32, respectively). Results indicated the species-specific nature of all of them, except CUHO3, with the sensitivity of detection of 100 pg and 20 pg of the target DNA template for CUHA2 and CUHA12 and CUHV1, respectively. The species-origin of the frozen, ethanol-preserved, dried, and boiled H. asinina specimens could also be successfully identified by CUHA2.

Murrah and NiliRavi are the important North Indian buffalo breeds occupying the prominent position of being the highest milk producers. These breeds are more or less similar at morphological as well as physiological levels. The technique of RAPD-PCR was applied in the present study to identify a battery of suitable random primers to detect genetic polymorphism, elucidation of the genetic structure and rapid assessment of the differences in the genetic composition of these two breeds. A total of 50 random primers were screened in 24 animals each of Murrah and NiliRavi buffaloes to generate RAPD patterns. Of these, 26 (52%) primers amplified the buffalo genome generating 263 reproducible bands. The number of polymorphic bands for the 26 chosen RAPD primers varied from 3 (OPG 06 and B4) to 26 (OPJ 04) with an average of 10.1 bands per primer and size range of 0.2 to 3.2 kb. DNA was also pooled and analyzed to search for population specific markers. Two breed specific RAPD alleles were observed in each of Murrah (OPA02 and OPG16) and NiliRavi (OPG09) DNA pools. RAPD profiles revealed that 11 (4.2%) bands were common to all the 48 individuals of Murrah and NiliRavi buffaloes. Pair-wise band sharing calculated among the individual animals indicated considerable homogeneity of individuals within the breeds. Within breed, band sharing values were relatively greater than those of interbreed values. The low genetic distance (Nei's) value (0.109) estimated in this study is in accordance with the origin and geographical distribution of these breeds. The RAPD analysis indicated high level of genetic similarity between these two important North Indian buffalo breeds.

This study was carried out to differentiate the origins of Astragalus membranaceus Bunge and A. membranaceus Bunge var. mogholicus Nakai. To identify the variation of the RAPD patterns between domestic and foreign Astragalus species, 40 random primers were applied to ten accessions of A. membranaceus and six accessions of A. membranaceus var. mogholicus genomic DNA, respectively, Ten primers of 40 primers could be used to discriminate the origins and 33 polymorph isms among 44 scored DNA fragments (33 fragments are specific for A. membranaceus and A. membranaceus var. mogholicus) were generated using these primers, 75.0 % of which were polymorphic. Especially, three primers of ten primers, OPA17, OPA11 and OPB11, were useful to differentiate between domestic and foreign Astragalus species. RAPD data from the 10 primers were used for cluster analysis and cluster analysis of RAPD markers showed that the two groups are distinct genetically. Consequently, RAPD analysis was a useful method to discriminate between A. membranaceus and A. membranaceus var. mogholicus.
