  • Hyperion, as hyperspectral data, is carried on NASA’s EO-1 satellite, can be used in more subtle discrimination on forest cover, with 224 band in 360 ?2580 nm (10nm interval). In this study, Hyperion image is used to investigate the effects of topography on the classification of forest cover, and to assess whether the topographic correction improves the discrimination of species units for practical forest mapping. A publicly available Digital Elevation Model (DEM), at a scale of 1:25,000, is used to model the radiance variation on forest, considering MSR(Mean Spectral Ratio) on antithesis aspects. Hyperion, as hyperspectral data, is corrected on a pixel-by-pixel basis to normalize the scene to a uniform solar illumination and viewing geometry. As a result, the approach on topographic effect normalization in hyperspectral data can effectively reduce the variation in detected radiance due to changes in forest illumination, progress the classification of forest cover.

  • Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS)-based pathogen identification relies on the ribosomal protein spectra provided in the proprietary database. Although these mass spectra can discern various pathogens at species level, the spectra-based method still has limitations in identifying closely-related microbial species. In this study, to overcome the limits of the current MALDI-TOF MS identification method using ribosomal protein spectra, we applied MALDI-TOF MS of low-mass profiling to the identification of two genetically related Bacillus species, the food-borne pathogen Bacillus cereus, and the insect pathogen Bacillus thuringiensis. The mass spectra of small molecules from 17 type strains of two bacilli were compared to the morphological, biochemical, and genetic identification methods of pathogens. The specific mass peaks in the low-mass range (m/z 500-3,000) successfully identified various closely-related strains belonging to these two reference species. The intensity profiles of the MALDI-TOF mass spectra clearly revealed the differences between the two genetically-related species at strain level. We suggest that small molecules with low molecular weight, 714.2 and 906.5 m/z can be potential mass biomarkers used for reliable identification of B. cereus and B. thuringiensis.

  • 남조세균 Anabaena (Cyanobacteria, Nostocales)는 담수 생태계에서 녹조 현상을 유발하거나 일부 종은 간독소(hepatotoxin)를 갖고 있어 수질관리 차원에서 주목 받아 왔다. 본 연구는 Anabaena RNA polymerase beta subunit (rpoB) 유전자 염기서열을 규명하였으며, 분류학적 분자 마커로 사용하기 위하여 이들 염기서열의 특성을 평가하였다. Anabaena rpoB 유전자는 16S rRNA 유전자와 비교하여 염기 유사도가 낮으며 유전자 변이가 큰 것으로 분석되었으며, 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다(Student t-test, p<0.01). Parsimony 분석을 통해 rpoB 유전자가 4.8배의 속도로 빠르게 진화하는 것으로 파악되었다. 또한 rpoB 유전자 phylogeny 분석에서 16S rRNA tree보다 높은 해상도로 Anabaena 균주를 명확하게 구분해 주었다. 본 연구 결과는 Anabaena의 종 식별, 분자계통 분류, 분자적 검출을 위해 rpoB 유전자가 매우 효과적이라는 것을 제시해 준다.

  • Deep learning approach is emerging as a new way to improve the accuracy of tree species identification using bark image. However, the approach has not been studied enough because it is confronted with the problem of acquiring a large volume of bark image dataset. This study solved this problem by utilizing a pretrained off-the-shelf DCNN model. It compares the discrimination power of bark features extracted by each DCNN model. Then it extracts the features by using a selected DCNN model and feeds them to a multi-layer perceptron (MLP). We found out that the ResNet50 model is effective in extracting bark features and the MLP could be trained well with the features reduced by the principal component analysis. The proposed approach gives accuracy of 99.1% and 98.4% for BarkTex and Trunk12 datasets respectively.

  • An oligonucleotide array was developed to detect and genotype mollicutes based on the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequence. The results of the assay were compared with those of a PCR-RFLP assay. The proposed oligonucleotide array containing 5 genus- and 23 species-specific probes was able to detect Mycoplasma species, including M. penetrans and M. spermatophilum, that were not detected by the PCR-RFLP assay. Therefore, the results demonstrated that the proposed oligonucleotide array was effective for the detection and discrimination of 23 species, including an acholeplasma, 21 mycoplasmas, and a ureaplasma, and showed promise as a countermeasure to ensure that biological products are safe and of good quality.

  • The objective of this study was to assess of genetic variation within and between pumpkin species including Cucurbita maxima, C. moschata, C. pepo and C. maxima${\times}$C. moschata using RAPD markers. The 16 primers showed the amplification of 136 scorable fragments ranging from about 100 bp to 2300 bp. A total of 94 DNA fragments were polymorphic with an average 5.9 polymorphic bands per primer. A species $(C. maxima\timesC. moschata)$ has the highest number of polymorphic loci. Based on obtained data, UPGMA cluster analysis was conducted. Twenty pumpkin cultivars were classified into three large categories and identified genetic distance of cluster ranging from 0.38 and 1.00. Clustering was in accordance with the division of Curcurbitaceae into four species, C. maxima, C. moschata, C. pepo and C. $C. maxima\timesC. moschata$. Therefore, RAPD method may be essential tool for enabling discrimination of pumpkin cultivars.

  • Recently many studies show that genetic characters can be used to provide unambiguous taxonomic discrimination when morphological characters are not practical for routine identification to species level (Bucklin et al., 1996, 1998; Lindeque et al., 1999). The internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions of the nuclear ribosomal DNA are also one of appropriate markers for species-level studies because it contains sufficient diversity to address intra- and interspecific phylogenetic relationships in invertebrates (Odorico and Miller,1997; Schizas et al., 1999).

  • Pufferfish (Takifugu spp.) are economically important edible marine fish. Mistakes in pufferfish classification can lead to poisoning; therefore, accurate species identification is critical. In this study, we used the mtDNA cytochrome c oxidase subunit I gene (COI) to design specific primers for six Takifugu species among the 21 domestic or imported pufferfish species legally sold for consumption in Korea. We rapidly and simultaneously identified these pufferfish species using a highly efficient, multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) system with the six species-specific primers. The results showed that species-specific multiplex PCR (multiplex species-specific polymerase chain reaction; MSS-PCR) either specifically amplified PCR products of a unique size or failed. MSS-PCR yielded amplification fragment lengths of 897 bp for Takifugu pardalis, 822 bp for T. porphyreus, 667 bp for T. niphobles, 454 bp for T. poecilonotus, 366 bp for T. rubripes, and 230 bp for T. xanthpterus using the species-specific primers and a control primer (ca. 1,200 bp). We visualized the results using agarose gel electrophoresis to obtain accurate contrasts of the six Takifugu species. MSS-PCR analysis is easily performed and provides identification results within 6 h. This technique is a powerful tool for the discrimination of Takifugu species and will help prevent falsified labeling, protect consumer rights, and reduce the risk of pufferfish poisoning..

  • Buffer soluble protein and five isozymes were analyzed to assess the inter specific relationship among 25 species of the genus Mammillaria Haw. A total of 102 types of proteins were resolved, out of which eighty-six types were found to be polymorphic and only two were unique. A total of 248 bands (isoforms) were detected for 5 isozymes, among them only 4 were found to be monomorphic and 35 were exclusive. Mantel 'Z' statistics revealed wide variations in the correlation among different enzymes. The correlation value 'r' was the highest in case of esterase with pooled data of all the five enzymes. The dendrogram constructed on the basis of pooled data (protein and allozyme) divided the species into two major clusters containing 14 and 11 members respectively. The species M. matudae and M. bella were found to be the most closely related while M. decipience and M. camptroticha were distantly apart. The present study gave an indication of usefulness of the isozyme and protein markers for genetic discrimination between different species of Mammillaria.
