Molecular genetic techniques can now be applied to the development of advanced plant genotypes, either through genetic transformation or genomic approaches which allow researchers to transfer specific traits using molecular markers. In this paper, we discuss the use of these techniques towards understanding the genetics of blackleg resistance in Brassica. In a comparative mapping study between Arabidopsis thaliana and Brassica napus, 6 R-ESTs, 7 B. napus RFLP markers and a B. napus EST were located in a collinear region of N7 (B. napus) and chromosome 1 (A. thaliana). One of the A. thaliana R-ESTs and 4 of the B. napus RFLPs co-segregated and mapped to the LmRl locus for blackleg resistance. Introgression of blackleg resistance from wild relatives is also investigated with the possibility of accelerating the introgression process via marker assisted selection.

Hypertension is characterized by multiple genetic and environmental factors. To establish the genetic basis of hypertension in Koreans, we investigated the genetic variations of two candidate genes (aldosterone synthase (CYP11B2), ${\gamma}$ subunit of the amiloride-sensitive epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) in the Korean patients with hypertension and normotensive controls. There were no significant differences in the genotype and allele frequencies between two groups, respectively. However, there was the significant difference between Korean and Caucasian populations in allele frequency of RFLPs in the two candidate genes. Therefore, these studies also need to be confirmed in other ethnic groups, although our results do not support a possible role of these genes on hypertension in Korean population

Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. fragariae is a fungal pathogen causing strawberry wilt disease. The random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) of intergenic spacer (IGS) region of rDNA were used to identify genetic variation among 22 F. oxysporum f. sp. fragariae isolates. All isolates could be distinguished from each other by RAPD analysis and RFLP of 2.6 kb amplified with primer CNS1 and CNL12 for IGS region of rDNA. Cluster analysis using UPGMA showed eight distinct clusters based on the banding patterns obtained from RAPD and rDNA RFLP. These results indicate that F. oxysporum f. sp. fragariae isolates are genetically distinct from each other, There was a high level genetic variation among F. oxysporum f. sp. fragariae.

In view of the importance of muscle-specific creatine kinase (CKMM) gene as a genetic factor for athletic performance, we investigate the relationship between elite athletic performance and two restriction fragment length polymorphisms (Ncol and Taql RFLPs) in the CKMM gene. Genomic DNA was extracted from white blood cells of 98 unrelated male Korean elite athletes and 04 sedentary controls, respectively. Two genetic polymorphisms in the CKMM gene were detected by the polymerase chain reaction and the digestion with restriction endonucleases, Ncol and Taql, respectively. There were no significant associations between two genetic polymorphisms in the CKMM gene and elite athletic performance or clinical parameters in our subjects. Therefore, these findings suggest that two genetic polymorphisms in the CKMM gene may not be useful as genetic markers to predict the athletic performance in male Koreans.

Mitochondrial DNA restriction fragment length polymorphisms are convenient markers for identifying cytoplasmic variation among plants. We have collected 212 wild soybeans (Glycine soja Sieb. et Zucc) from all over Korea, and classified mitochondrial genome types based on hybridization patterns in DNA gel-blot analyses using two mitochondrial DNA clones, cox2 and atp6, as probes. Korean wild soybean was classified with eight-mtDNA types, and some of the mtDNAs showed geographical clines among the regions. The diversity index of the mtDNA was much higher in the western and southern regions than in the eastern and northern regions of Korea, respectively. Dissemination and distributive characteristics of wild soybeans in Korea were discussed.

Mulberry (Morus spp.) is an economically important tree crop being cultivated in India, China and other sericulturally important countries for its foliage to feed the silk producing insect Bombyx mori L. Genetic improvements of mulberry lag behind to the same in many other economically less important crops due to the complexity of its genetics, the breeding behavior, and the lack of basic information on factors governing important agronomic traits. In this review, the general usage and advantages of different molecular markers including isoenzymes, RFLPs, RAPDs, ISSRs, SSRs, AFLPs and SNPs are described to enlighten their applicability in mulberry genetic improvement programs. Application of DNA markers in germplasm characterization, construction of genetic linkage maps, QTL identification and in marker-assisted selection was also described along with its present status and future prospects.

Eight strains of Trichaptun (Polyporaceae), two strains from each species of T. abietinum, T. biforme, T. fusco-violaceum, and T. laricinum were examined to see their phylogenetic relationship by digesting mitochondrial DNAs with EcoRV, Hind III, XbaI, and PstI, and then analyzing fragmentation patterns with the methods of Nei and Li. T. abietinum, T. biforme, and T. laricinum developed an independent phylogenetic lineage, respectively, but T. fusco-violaceum FP-133997-sp showed a close relationship with two strains of T. bioforme, and T. fusco-violaceum HHB-4016-sp barely grouped with those of T. laricinum. Based on the results of the RFLP analysis of mtDNA, it is concluded that T. fusco-violaceum is under way to differentiation into two different subgroups.

To determine the amount of genetic variation among populations of Penaeus chinensis (Osbeck) in the Yellow Sea, 342 bp region of the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I gene was amplified and sequenced. Six haplotypes, which differ by from one to four nucleotide sustitutions, were detected from 34 individuals of 4 populations examined. Mean sequence divergence between pairs of haplotypes was $0.68\%$. Most individuals from 4 populations were shared by the most common genotype. This genotype was distributed evenly in the Korean and Chinese populations. This result is in accordance with findings observed using RFLPs analysis of mtDNA (Hwang et al., 1997). Therefore, it is suggested that P. chinensis should be treated as one unit stock in the Yellow Sea.

To estimate genetic relationships within the genus Rhizopus, genetic variations in 20 strains were investigated by DGGE and PCR-RFLP of rDNA ITS region (ITSI, ITS2,5.8S). The size of the amplified products showed the interspecific polymorphisms, 650 bp,700 bp, and 900 bp. The DGGE approach allowed the separation of PCR amplicons of the same length according to their sequence variations. When the rDNA ITS region was digested with six restriction enzymes, 20 strains were classified into five RFLP haplotypes. The range of similarity between the 20 strains by PCR-RFLP was 42.3-100%. Based on the results of DGGE aud PCR-RFLP, the 20 strains were divided into four groups, R. oryzae, R. stolonifer, R. microsporus and R. homothallicus. Further study of R. homothallicus is required.
