This study was conducted to investigate the change of weed community on paddy-upland rotation in 1996. In paddy-upland rotation, dominant weed species in paddy condition were Cyperous amuricus, Echinochloa crus-galli, Rotara indica and Lindernia procumbens. They were E. crusgalli, Digitaria sanguinalis and C. amuricus in upland condition. The number of weed occurrence on paddy and upland rotation reduced about 74-78% as compared with continuous paddy and upland condition. Similarity coefficient and Simpson index on paddy and upland rotation was 8-64, 0.34-0.35, respectively.

The molecular relationships have analyzed between the Bombyx mandarina(wild silkworm) and Bombyx mori strains (domesticated silkworm, geographical silkworms). A total of 166 polymorphic RAPD markers amplified from 35 different primers were used to analyze the molecular relationships among thirteen silkworm strains. The genetic similarity coefficient between Bombyx mandarina and Jam305 showed the lowest genetic similarity value with 0.451, Bombyx mandarina and Bibaekjam showed the highest genetic similarity value with 0.958. These strains were classified into Bombyx mandarina(a wild silkworm) and Bombyx mori(twelve domesticated silkworm) groups upon the genetic similary coefficient of 0.55. Further classificient of 0.60; the 1st sub-group (J111, Bibaekjam, $pnd^{ps}$), the 2nd sub-group (Galwon, C18, od yujam, JAM306, C108), the 3rd sub-group(R-hwang, p50), the 4th sub-group(zebra) and the 5th sub-group(JAM305). According to this study, RAPD markers seems to be a valuable tool for molecular relationships and classification among the silkworms.
