국내 시장에서는 Wolfiporia hoelen의 균핵 생산량을 늘리기 위해 새로운 균주 육종을 요구되고 있다. 이에 본 연구는 국내에서 수집한 31개의 야생 균주와 12개의 재배 균주에 대해, 최근 보고된 교배형 연관 유전자의 RPB2의 단일염기다형성(single nucleotide polymorphism, SNP)을 적용해 단핵균사와 이핵균사를 구분할 수 있는지 확인함으로써 SNP 정보가 육종에 유용한지 알아 보고자 수행되었다. 이를 위해 해당 정보를 효율적으로 얻을 수 있는 프라이머도 개발하였다. 분석 결과, 국내 야생 균주들은 동형접합인 경우가 중국 균주보다 많아 기존 SNP의 한계를 확인하였다. 이를 보완하고자 RPB2 유전자에서 3개의 SNP를 추가로 발견하였으며, 이를 통해 단핵균사와 이핵균사의 구분 능력을 높였다. 나아가 4개의 SNP를 기존에 육성한 교잡균주와 교잡에 사용한 단포자 균주에 적용함으로써 육종에서의 활용 가능성이 있음을 확인하였다.

Objective: This study was conducted to investigate the effects of rumen-protected biotin (RPB) on growth performance, nutrient digestibility, nitrogen utilization and plasma biochemical parameters of Liaoning cashmere goats during the cashmere fiber growing period. Methods: Sixteen 6-month-old Liaoning cashmere twin-doelings (24.8±1.20 kg) were allocated to 2 diet groups that were individually ad libitum fed 30% concentrate and 70% forage diet (dry matter [DM]) by a paired experimental design. Goats of the control group were fed the basal diet, while goats belonging to the RPB group were fed the basal diet with 10 mg RPB/d per animal. The duration of the experiment was 16 weeks with two 8-week periods. Digestibility was determined at weeks 7 and 15, and other measures were taken every four weeks. Results: Compared with the control group, the average daily gain of the RPB group increased by 10.94% (p<0.05), and the intake of neutral detergent fiber was increased (p = 0.045). There were some increasing tendencies for the intake of DM, acid detergent fiber and ether extract (p = 0.070, 0.088, and 0.070, respectively). The intake and digestibility of N tended to increase (p = 0.062 and 0.093, respectively), while the N fecal excretion percentage of N intake was decreased (p = 0.093) in the RPB compared with the control group. N retention tended to increase (p = 0.084) with the addition of adding RPB to the diet. Plasma total protein was increased (p = 0.037), whereas the urea-N concentration was decreased (p = 0.049) in the RPB diet group compared with the control diet group. The levels of propionyl-CoA carboxylase (p<0.001) and methylmalonyl-CoA (p = 0.013) were increased in the RPB group. Conclusion: Supplementation of rumen-protected biotin in the diet of cashmere goats can enhance the utilization of N and improve daily weight gain during cashmere fiber growing period.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to predict rabies protective behaviors (RPB) based on protection motivation theory (PMT) among fourth-grade students at schools in Chonburi Province, Thailand. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted from December 2020 to February 2021. A multistage sampling technique was used for sample selection. The questionnaire was divided into socio-demographic data and questions related to PMT and RPB. Descriptive statistical analysis was conducted using the EpiData program and inferential statistics, and the results were tested using the partial least squares model with a significance level of less than 5%. Results: In total, 287 subjects were included, of whom 62.4% were girls and 40.4% reported that YouTube was their favorite media platform. Most participants had good perceived vulnerability, response efficacy, and self efficacy levels related to rabies (43.9, 68.6, and 73.2%, respectively). However, 54.5% had only fair perceived severity levels related to rabies. Significant positive correlations were found between RPB and the PMT constructs related to rabies (β, 0.298; p<0.001), and the school variable (S4) was also a predictor of RPB (β, -0.228; p<0.001). Among the PMT constructs, self efficacy was the strongest predictor of RPB (β, 0.741; p<0.001). Conclusions: PMT is a useful framework for predicting RPB. Future RPB or prevention/protection intervention studies based on PMT should focus on improving self efficacy and response efficacy, with a particular focus on teaching students not to intervene with fighting animals. The most influential PMT constructs can be used for designing tools and implementing and evaluating future educational interventions to prevent rabies in children.

Blue mold in citrus is caused by Penicillium italicum. In this study, the P. italicum-specific primers were developed for rapid detection based on the conserved genes RPB1 and RPB2 among Penicillium genomes. The two primer pairs RPB1-a and RPB1-b proved to be specific to detect P. italicum. The PCR assay among 39 fungal isolates and the colonial, pathogenic morphologies and molecular methods validated the specificity and reliability of these two primer pairs. This report provided a method and P. italicum-specific primers, which might greatly contribute to citrus postharvest industry.

잿빛곰팡이병의 전형적인 병징을 나타내는 병든 사과, 고추, 딸기, 오이, 토마토에서 곰팡이를 분리하고, 그들의 배양학적 특성과, 형태적 특성 및 PCR-RFLP을 통해 이 병원성 곰팡이를 모두 Botrytis cinerea로 동정하였다. 또한, 배양학적 특징에 따라 사과, 고추, 오이에서 분리한 잿빛곰팡이병균의 표현형은 균핵형이며, 딸기와 토마토에서 분리한 잿빛곰팡이병균은 균사형이었다. 각각의 잿빛곰팡이병균의 ITS 영역 염기서열을 포함한 4종의 유전자(RPB2, HSP60, G3PDH)의 염기서열을 결정하고 분자계통학적 유연관계를 분석하였다. RPB2 유전자 염기서열을 제외한 ITS 영역, HSP60유전자 및 G3PDH 유전자의 염기서열은 Botrytis cinerea 종 내 뿐만 아니라 Botrytis 속 종간에도 매우 높은 상동성을 나타내어 계통학적 유연관계 분석이 어려웠다. 하지만, 3종의 유전자(RPB2, HSP60, G3PDH)를 결합한 유전자 염기서열을 이용한 분자계통수 작성 결과, 본 연구에서 분리한 잿빛곰팡이병균은 Botrytis 속의 다른 종들과 구별되며, 사과, 고추, 오이, 토마토의 분리주는 아주 높은 근연관계에 있고, 딸기잿빛곰팡이병균은 다른 분리주와 달리 종내 다른 lineage를 형성하였다.

Distinguishing individual Russula species has been difficult due to extensive phenotypic plasticity and obscure morphological and anatomical discontinuities. Due to highly similar macroscopic features, such as the presence of a red-cap, species identification within the Russula subgenus Amoenula is particularly difficult. Three species of the subgenus Amoneula have been reported in Korea. We used a combination of morphology and three molecular markers, the internal transcribed spacer (ITS), 28S nuclear ribosomal large subunit (LSU), and RNA polymerase II gene (RPB2), for identification and study of the genetic diversity of Russula subgenus Amoenula in Korea. We identified only two species in Korea (R. mariae and R. violeipes); these two species were indistinguishable according to morphology and LSU, but were found to be reciprocally monophyletic species using ITS and RPB2. The markers, ITS, LSU, and RPB2, have been tested in the past for use as DNA barcoding markers, and findings of our study suggest that ITS and RPB2 had the best performance for the Russula subgenus Amoneula.

Fusarium species, a large group of plant pathogens, potentially pose quarantine concerns worldwide. Here, we focus on the development of a method for detecting four Fusarium species in quarantined plants in Korea: F. solani f. sp. cucurbitae, F. stilboides, F. redolens, and F. semitectum var. majus. Species-specific primers were designed from the nucleotide sequences of either the translation elongation factor-1 alpha (TEF1) gene or RNA polymerase II subunit (RPB2) gene. Two different primer sets derived from TEF1, all specific to F. solani f. sp. cucurbitae, were able to differentiate the two races (1 and 2) of this species. A set of nested primers for each race was designed to confirm the PCR results. Similarly, two primer sets derived from RPB2 successfully amplified specific fragments from five F. stilboides isolates grouped within a single phylogenetic clade. A specific TEF1 primer set amplified a DNA fragment from only four of the 12 F. redolens strains examined, which were grouped within a single phylogenetic clade. All of the F. semitectum var. majus isolates could be specifically detected with a single RPB2 primer set. The specificity of the primer sets developed here was confirmed using a total of 130 Fusarium isolates.

A new fungus, Ophiocordyceps alboperitheciata, parasitic on the larva of Noctuidae (Lepidoptera) was identified from a survey of entomopathogenic fungi in Kunming Wild Duck Forest Park, Yunnan Province, China. It can be primarily distinguished from relatives by its longer fertile parts, sterile tips, superficial perithecia, narrower asci, and smaller septa of ascospores. As revealed from phylogenetic analyses inferred from nrSSU, nrLSU, tef-1α, rpb1, and rpb2 sequence data, O. alboperitheciata belongs to the Hirsutella citriformis clade in the genus Ophiocordyceps of Ophiocordycipitaceae, and forms a separated clade from other related species. The uniqueness of the taxon is significantly evidenced by both molecular phylogeny and morphology. Furthermore, the interspecific relationships in the H. citriformis clade are discussed.

꽃도라지(Eustoma grandiflorum)는 국내에서 장식용 화훼류로 널리 이용되는 절화류이다. 2015년 경기도 여주와 경남 김해 지역에서 꽃도라지가 시들고, 지제부가 잘록해지면서 위축되고, 뿌리가 썩는 증상이 나타났다. 병든 식물체는 포장이나 육묘상자에서 황화되고, 뿌리 발육이 저해되었고, 진전되면 전체적으로 황화되면서 시들고, 위축되며, 결국 2~3개월 안에 완전히 말라 죽는다. 병든 식물체 지제부에서 Fusarium균이 분리되었고, 9개 균주를 단포자 분리하여 형태적 특성을 조사한 결과, Fusarium solani로 동정되었다. 대형포자는 통통하고, 직선형이거나 약간 굽은 초승달 모양이고, 소형분생포자는 긴mono형태의 분생포자원세포에서 false head상으로 형성되었다. 후벽포자는 균사 중간 혹은 끝부분에 풍부하게 형성되었다. 이와 같은 동정 결과는 translation elongation factor 1 alpha (TEF)와 RNA polymerase II subunit (RPB2) 유전자의 염기서열 분석으로 재확인되었다. 그 결과, 분리 균주는 NCBI GenBank에 등록된 F. solani와 TEF 유전자는 99.2~99.9%, RPB2 유전자는 98.0~98.1%의 상동성을 나타내었다. 건전한 꽃도라지 유묘의 뿌리를 포자현탁액에 침지 접종하여 병원성 검정을 수행한 결과, 접종 7일 이내에 접종한 식물체에서만 병징이 관찰되었다. 따라서 이 병을 F. solani에 의한 꽃도라지 뿌리썩음병으로 명명하며, 병의 발생을 국내에서 처음으로 보고한다.
