This study was conducted to get basic information on the occurrence of plant-parasitic nematodes for the establishment of nematode management strategy in major potato production areas in Korea. Nationwide soil collection was done in 11 areas of Cheju, Yesan, Gimchun, Goryoung, Hong chun, Pyungchang, Gimjae, Milyang, Namwon, Gangnung, and Inje in 2004-2005. Root-hot nematode juveniles(J2) were detected in 30 samples among the 50 samples. The average density was 12-69 J2/100cc soil. Pratylenchus sp., Helicotylenchus sp., Ditylenchus sp., Tylenchus sp., and Tylenchorhynchus sp. were also detected in various locations, however, their densities were very low. Root-knot nematode females were collected from tomato roots inoculated with the potato field soils for PCR-RFLP identification. The females from Cheju, Milyang, and Goryung showed PCR products of 500 bp. And the Dra I restriction enzyme digestions showing 290 bp and 230 bp fragments confirmed their identity as Meloidogyne hapla.

Five species of intertidal clams including Ruditapes philippinarum, Tegillarca granosa, Solen strictus, Heteromacoma irus, and Coecella chinensis were tested for the presence of the protozoan parasite, Perkinsus sp. using fluid thioglycollate medium (FTM) fortified with antibiotics and histological techniques. Each individual clam was placed in a test tube filled with 10ml FTM, placed in totally dark place, and incubated over a week. After incubation the clam tissues were stained with Lugol's iodine solution and examined under a light microscope to find out any hypnospores of Perkensus sp. in the tissues. Cross-sections of the clams were also embedded in paraffin, sliced to 3um, and stained with Harry's hematoxylene and Picro eosine to observe the presence of tomont or trophozoites. Perkinsus sp. were found in the presence of tomont or trophozoites. Perkinsus sp. were found in the tissues of R. philippinarum collected from Kangjin and Wando, along the south coast of Korea. However, Perkinsus sp. was not found in four other species of clams nor R. philippinaurm collected from Kimnyong and Waido in Cheju. A size-dependent Perkinsus sp. infection was found in R. philippinarum collected rom Kangjin and Wando the clams smaller than 15mm in shell width do not exhibit and Perkinsus sp. while other clams greater than 20mm in shell width exhibit almost 100% infection. To determine the number of Perkinsus sp. in the clams, FTM cultured clam tissues were digested with 2M NaOH solution and the number of hypnospores in the tube were counted. The number of hypnospores counted from the tissues indicated that each Manila clam contains 100,000 to 3,500,000 Perkinsus cells or 20,000 to 1,000,000 cells per gram tissue wet weight. The results of cell counts also suggests that such a high occurrence of Perkinsus sp. in the clam may cause mortality, as already reported from other studies of Perkinsus spp.

The bacterial community structure of two marine sponges, Spirastrella abata and Cinachyrella sp. collected from Jeju Island, in April 2009, was analyzed by 16S rDNA-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE). DGGE banding patterns indicated 8 and 7 bands for Spirastrella abata and Cinachyrella sp., respectively. Comparative sequence analysis of variable DGGE bands revealed from 92% to 100% similarity to the known published sequences. The bacterial groups associated with Spirastrella abata were Alphaproteobacteria and Deltaproteobacteria. The bacterial community of Cinachyrella sp. consisted of Alphaproteobacteria, Gammaproteobacteria, and Actinobacteria. Alphaproteobacteria was common and predominant in both the sponge species. Deltaproteobacteria was found only in Spirastrella abata while Actinobacteria and Gammaproteobacteria were found only in Cinachyrella sp. The results revealed that though the common bacterial group was found in both the sponges, the bacterial community profiles differed between the two sponge species obtained from the same geographical location.

Succinic acid, valuable $C_4$-dicarboxylic acid as a renewable alternative feedstock, is currently produced commercially by the petrochemical process, but extensive efforts have been devoted to establish the biological process for mass production of succinic acid. In this study, the bioconversion of fumaric acid to succinic acid was investigated. We isolated an Enterococcus sp. RKY1 KCTC 8890P, facultative bacterium, capable of the bioconversion of fumaric acid to soccinic acid very rapidly and efficiently. At batch fermentation, the amount of succinic acid production increased with increase in initial fumaric acid from 40 to 100 g/L. With fumaric acid of 70 g/L, the average specific and volumetric production rate, molar yield were reached up to 0.64 g/g.h, 4.87 g/g.h, and 96.5%, respectively. Maximum concentration of succinic acid of 88.9 g/L was achieved with molar yield of 89% with fumaric acid of 100 g/L in less than 20 hours.
