The rice belonging to Oryza sativa is not only has significant economic importance, for it is the major source of nutrition for about 3 billion all around the world. But also plays a vital role as a model organism, because it has a number of advantages to be a model plant, such as efficient transformation system and small genome size. Many methods and techniques have been conducted to attempt to distinguish different Oryza sativa species, such as amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP), random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), simple sequence repeat (SSR) and so on. However, studies using sequence analysis of internal transcribed spacer (ITS), a region of ribosomal RNA has not been reported until now. This study was undertaken with an aim to understand the phylogenetic relationships among sixteen isolates of Oryza sativa collected from abroad and fifteen isolates collected from Korea, using ribosomal RNA (rRNA) internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequences to compare the phylogeny relationships among different Oryza sativa species. The size variation obtained among sequenced nuclear ribosomal DNA (nrDNA) ITS region ranged from 515bp to 1000bp. The highest interspecific genetic distance (GD) was found between Sfejare 45 (FR12) and Anapuruna (FR15). Taebong isolate showed the least dissimilarity of the ITS region sequence with other thirty isolates. This consequence will help us further understanding molecular diversification in intra-species population and their phylogenetic analysis.

For the phylogenetic study of the genus Trichaptum, nuclear ribosomal DNA sequences from eight strains of four Trichaptium species were examined. Phylogenetic trees were constructed using molecular data on 18 rDNA and 5.8S rDNA and thei ITSs. Parsimony analyses of the Trichaptum species showed that T. biforme and T. laricinum made a monophyletic group respectively, suggesting that each species is phylogenetically independent. However, T. abietum represented a polyphyletic group and T. fusco-violaceum formed a polytomous group, suggesting that these species could be in the process of evolutionary differentiation. Examination of base substitutions of the 18S rRNA gene reveals that the C-T transition is most predominant and that there is a stronger transition bias between closely related organisms rather than between distantly related ones.

To determine the molecular phylogenie location of Plagiorchis muris, 28S D1 ribosomal DNA (rDNA) and mitochondrial cytochrome C oxidase subunit I (mtCOI) were sequenced and compared with other trematodes in the family Plagiorchiidae. The 28S D1 tree of P. muris was found to be closely related to those of P. elegans and other Plagiorchis species. And, the mtCOI tree also showed that P. muris is in a separate clade with genus Glypthelmins. These results support a phylogenie relationship between members of the Plagiorchiidae, as suggested by morphologic features.

Two Pseudopolydora polychaetes, P. bassarginensis and P. reticulata, originally described from Peter the Great Bay in Russia and Taiwan, respectively, were recorded firstly in Korea with DNA information. Two species are known to have distinct morphological characteristics that are separated from other Pseudopolydora species. They are characterized by reticulate pigmentations on the dorsal sides of the anterior chaetigers, a longitudinal black band-like pigmentation on the caruncle, and black paired spots on the ventral sides of the anterior chaetigers. These two species can be distinguished morphologically from each other by the length of the caruncle. Methyl green staining pattern of the species is a good method for delimiting Pseudopolydora species. The partial sequences of the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI), 16S ribosomal DNA (16S rDNA), and the nuclear 18S ribosomal DNA (18S rDNA) from Korean specimens of the two species were determined. The morphological descriptions and images of the two Pseudopolydora species are provided.

보길도에서 자라고 있는 황칠나무(Dendropanax morbifera)를 구입하여, 캘러스로 유도한 후, ribosomal DNA(nrDNA)의 internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region의 염기서열을 결정하였다 보길도의 황칠나무(Dendropanax morbifera)의 ITS region의 염기서열을 분석한 결과, 총 689염기를 결정하였다. 결정된 689염기 중에서 ITS1은 222 개염기, 5.8S rDNA는 160염기, ITS2는 233염기인 것으로 판명되었다. GenBank의 BLAST 프로그램(http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.BLAST)을 사용하여 GenBank/EMBL/DDBJ에 등록되어 있는 Dendropanax 속 33의 염기서열을 수집한 후 multiple alignment를 수행한 결과, 유사도는 99.7%(D. chevalieri)에서 92.6%(Dendropanax arboreus)로 나타났으며, 일본황칠나무(D. trifidus)와는 유사도가 99.4%로 판명되었다.

정확한 in vitro 전사가 일어날 수 있는 진딧물의 세포추출액을 제조하였다. 전사를 직접 조절할 수 있는 단백질 인자를 규명하기 위하여 전사개시점과 그의 상류에 결합하는 DNA 결합단백질을 탐색했다. 전사개시점을 포함하는 단편 A(-194/23)에는 52kDa, 50kDa, 40kDa의 단백질들이 결합했으며 전사개시점 상류의 DNA 단편 B(-393/-263)에는 52kDa, 50kDa, 40kDa의 단백질들이 결합한 반면 DNA 단편 C(-263/-195)는 53kDa단백질만이 결합했다. 그리고 이들 DNA 결합단백질들의 DNA 결합 활성에는 양이온이 요구되었다.

서울시 소재 지하수 중 중금속으로 오염되어 음용수 이외의 생활 용수로 사용하고 있는 1개 정점과 음용수로 사용하고 있는 1개 정점, 대조군으로 강화도 천연 동굴의 1개 정점을 대상으로 실험을 실시하였다. 지하수 세균군집의 유전적 다양성의 변화를 보기 위해 지하수 세균 군집에서 16SrDNA를 증폭하는 primer로 PCR(polymerase chain reaction)을 실시한 후 ARDRA(amplified ribosomal DNA restriction analysis) 지문 분석으로 비교하였다. 16S rDNA를 증폭하여 제한효소 지문분석을 한 결과 in situ와 음용수에서 유전적 다양성이 상대적으로 크게 나타났다. 지하수 세균 군집의 ARDRA지문 분석은 상이한 환경과 서식지를 반영한 유전적 차이를 빠르게 비교 분석할 수 있었으며 지하수의 오염도에 따른 미생물의 다양성(천연 동굴>음용수>오염수)을 확인할 수 있었다.

DNA-based molecular markers for differentiation of five penaeid shrimps (Penaeus monodon, P. semisulcatus, Feneropenaeus merguiensis, Litopenaeus vannamei and Marsupenaeus japonicus) were developed based on polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) and single-stranded conformation polymorphism (SSCP) of 16S ribosomal (r) DNA. Differentiation of P. monodon, P. semisulcatus and L. vannamei can be unambiguously carried out by PCR-RFLP of 16S $rDNA_{560}$ whereas P. semisulcatus and M. japonicus shared a BABB mitotype. These shrimps were successfully discriminated by SSCP analysis of 16S $rDNA_{560}$. Nevertheless, the amplification success for L. vannamei and F. merguiensis was not consistent when tested against larger sample sizes. As a result, 16S $rDNA_{560}$ of an individual representing the most common mitotype of each species was cloned and sequenced. The new primer pair was designed and tested against the large sample sizes (312 bp product, N = 185). The amplification success was consistent across all species. PCR-RFLP of 16S $rDNA_{312}$ was as effective as that of 16S $rDNA_{560}$. Differentiation of all shrimp species were successfully carried out by SSCP analysis.

벼도열병균 14개 균주와 벼 이외 화본과 식물 도열병균 12개 균주를 대상으로 rDNA의 ITS II 부위를 증폭하여 그들의 핵산 구조 차이를 분석함으로 도열병균 균주간 분류를 시도하였다. 5.8S rDNA의 3`-말단 부위와 28S rDNA의 5`-말단 부위의 sequence 중 5`-CCCGGGAATTCGCATCGATCGATCGAATGAAGA-ACGCAGC-3`와 5`-CCCGGGATCCTCCGCTTATT-GATATGC-3`를 이용하여 PCR 증폭을 하였을 때 벼도열병균 14개 균주는 동일한 길이의 단일 밴드를 형성하였으며 벼 이외 화본과 식물 도열병균에서는 레드톱 식물로부터 분리한 도열병균만이 나머지 균주보다 38bp가 더 큰 길이를 가진 밴드를 형성하였다. PCR로 증폭된 DNA를 HaeIII와 MspI 제한효소로 절단하였을 때 벼도열병균 레이스간에는 제한효소 절단에 의한 전기영동 밴드 형태 차이를 관찰할 수 없었으나, 벼 이외 화본과 식물 도열병균 12개 균주는 3군으로 구분할 수 있었다. 벼도열병균 90=054와 강아지풀에서 분리한 도열병균 G90-5, 기장에서 분리한 G88-4, 바랭이에서 분리한 G88-5 그리고 레드톱에서 분리한 RT 균주의 ITS II 부위의 DNA 염기서열 비교 분석에 의하면 G88-4와는 다른 HaeIII와 MspI 제한효소 위치를 가지고 있었기에 제한효소 절단에 의한 전기영동 형태가 상이하였다. 또한 RT균주는 HaeIII와 MspI위치가 존재하지 않았다.

In this study, Prionospio depauperata Imajima, 1990 is newly reported in Korean fauna. Prionospio depauperata can be distinguished from other relatives by the four pairs of branchiae which are pinnate on chaetigers 2 and 5, and apinnate on chaetigers 3 and 4; caruncle extending to the end of chaetiger 2; and moderate dorsal crest present on chaetigers 7-13. The morphological diagnosis of P. depauperata are provided with the photographs of four Prionospio species. The mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (CO1), 16S ribosomal DNA (16S rDNA), and the nuclear 18S ribosomal DNA (18S rDNA) sequences of four Prionospio species from Korean waters, P. depauperata Imajima, 1990, P. japonica Okuda, 1935, P. krusadensis Fauvel, 1929, and P. membranacea Imajima, 1990, were determined for the first time. The inter-specific genetic distances among the congeners of four Prionospio species were 22.3-29.6% in CO1, 10.5-25.0% in 16S rDNA, and 0.3-3.6% in 18S rDNA.
