The flora of vascular plants in Geojedo revealed to be 550 taxa based on only the voucher specimens to be collected. It comprise 108 families, 341 genera, 478 species, 69 varieties and 3 forms respectively. Among them, 13 taxa of Korean endemics and 8 taxa of rare and endangered plants were investigated in addition to 75 taxa of specially designated plants announced by the Ministry of Environment. Furthermore, 36 taxa of induced and naturalized plants were also observed in this area. One of the characteristics of forest vegetation is the broadly occupation of Pinus thunbergii on whole area of Geojedo. Although it's well condition and conservation status, the destruction area of vegetation was rapidly increasing by the industrial development, the deforestation and the tramp as well as by the basic disturbances of human beings. Therefore, more active and positive conservation strategy such as expansion of conservation area should be prepared rapidly by the results of long-term monitoring studies.

Woolen tapestry curtains possessed by the Seoul Museum of Craft Art were used to hung on the wall or used for carpets in the winter season in the late Joseon dynasty. Since similar artifacts were only used for the curtain as functional aspects, woolen tapestry curtains were a rare case. In this study, scientific analysis on the accessory ornament of woolen tapestry curtains such as components of metal accessories and frame bar were conducted with the microscope, p-XRF, and SEM. Result of frame bar pigments, organic pigments such as ink stick were likely been used in woolen tapestry curtain 1. In woolen tapestry 2, lead red (Minium) was used in the frame bar. The result of metal parts, copper, and zinc were analyzed by p-XRF. This suggests that metal accessories were crafted using brass. Frame bar of woolen tapestry curtain 2 was made of soft pine (Pinus spp.) analyzed with the scanning electron microscope. Artifacts like woolen tapestry curtains are rare in Korea and scientific analysis databases were scarce, so it is important to construct components analysis data of woolen tapestry curtains. It is expected that additional scientific analysis and interpretation on the artifact's crafting technique can be merged with the analytical data gathered in this study to be utilized on the conservation and restoration of not only woolen curtains but curtain artifacts of the late Joseon dynasty in general.

Senescent cells that gradually accumulate during aging are one of the leading causes of aging. While senolytics can improve aging in humans as well as mice by specifically eliminating senescent cells, the effect of the senolytics varies in different cell types, suggesting variations in senescence. Various factors can induce cellular senescence, and the rate of accumulation of senescent cells differ depending on the organ. In addition, since the heterogeneity is due to the spatiotemporal context of senescent cells, in vivo studies are needed to increase the understanding of senescent cells. Since current methods are often unable to distinguish senescent cells from other cells, efforts are being made to find markers commonly expressed in senescent cells using bulk RNA-sequencing. Moreover, single-cell RNA (scRNA) sequencing, which analyzes the transcripts of each cell, has been utilized to understand the in vivo characteristics of the rare senescent cells. Recently, transcriptomic cell atlases for each organ using this technology have been published in various species. Novel senescent cells that do not express previously established marker genes have been discovered in some organs. However, there is still insufficient information on senescent cells due to the limited throughput of the scRNA sequencing technology. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the throughput of the scRNA sequencing technology or develop a way to enrich the rare senescent cells. The in vivo senescent cell atlas that is established using rapidly developing single-cell technologies will contribute to the precise rejuvenation by specifically removing senescent cells in each tissue and individual.

기후변화에 취약한 한반도 아고산대는 한대성 북방계식물의 서식처이다. 본 연구는 아고산대 산림의 군집생태학적 접근을 통한 복원 및 관리방안의 기초자료 제공목적으로 설악산 대청봉 일대 산림식생의 군집구조 및 식물상을 구명하였다. 2016년 5월부터 10월까지 31개소의 식생조사를 실시하였고, 식물사회학적 식생유형분류, 중요치, CCA를 분석하였다. 그 결과 식생유형분류체계는 분비나무군락에서 군단위로 눈잣나무군, 만병초군, 바디나물군, 이상 총 3개의 식생유형(VU)으로 분류되었다. 식별종군으로는 눈측백 식별종군, 자주솜대 식별종군을 포함하여 총 7개 종군유형으로 분류되었다. 평균 상대우점치 분석(MIP) 결과, VU 1의 MIP는 잣나무(24.1), 분비나무(23.6), 사스래나무(10.5) 등, VU 2의 MIP는 잣나무(26.2), 분비나무(20.8), 사스래나무(10.5) 등, VU 3의 MIP는 잣나무(22.2), 분비나무(16.4), 사스래나무(13.5) 등의 순이었다. 층위별 주요 경쟁수종인 잣나무와 분비나무의 중요치는 VU 1의 교목층에서 잣나무가 46.7, 분비나무는 26.1로 잣나무가 우세하나 아교목층, 관목층, 초본층에서는 분비나무의 중요치가 잣나무에 비해 높았고, VU 2와 VU 3에서도 교목층은 잣나무의 중요치가 높았지만 아교목층 이하에서는 낮은 값을 나타냈다. CCA ordination 분석 결과, 눈잣나무군은 해발고, 바디나물군은 출현종수와 다소 정의 상관관계를 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 산림청 지정 특산식물은 11분류군, 희귀식물은 24분류군으로 북방계 식물의 비율이 62.5%로 나타났다. 결론적으로 본 연구에서 분류된 3개의 식생단위와 분비나무 및 잣나무의 층위별 중요치 변화에 대한 식생학적 접근의 장기 모니터링이 필요하고, 희귀특산식물에 대한 개체군 및 군집생태학적 관리가 필요할 것으로 사료되었다.

Juniperus chinensis (Cupressaceae) is a valuable woody plant resource, but this rare plant is only distributed in restricted regions in Korea. In this study, we surveyed the geographic distribution regions, variation of sex ratio and the dynamics of natural populations of J. chinensis. in order to establish conservation strategies for the sustainable conservation of this important resource tree. The 17 natural populations of J. chinensis are restrictively distributed in the shore cliffs of (1) Ulleungdo island, (2) Gyeongju-si to Gangneung-si of the eastern coast, the riverside cliff along (3) Donggang-river of Jungsun-gun and Pyeongchang-gun and (4) branch of Nakdonggang-river in Uiseong-gun. The populations in Ulleungdo island showed continuous population distribution of over 200 individuals, but populations in other regions had discontinuous population distribution of under 200. The population of J. chinensis surveyed in Korea was estimated in ca. 3,200 individuals. The sex ratio (male/female) among populations of J. chinensis was diverse with variation from 0.46~1.67 range, but showed no significance. The sex ratio of the total individuals by species level was 0.74, and the percentage of female tree was significantly higher than the male. The results of dynamics analysis within population among regions showed that seedlings and saplings of J. chinensis in three regions surveyed were continuously regenerating. The distribution of DBH class showed a stable population structure of inverse J shape graph, but fragmentation and decrease in populations because of invading broad-leaved shrubs and trees from the surroundings were concerned. Further studies, and in situ and ex situ conservation strategies for the sustainable conservation on natural populations of this rare resources woody plant, J. chinensis in Korea are recommended.
