복숭아순나방붙이(Grapholita dimorpha Komai)는 동북아시아에 주로 발생하는 과수 해충으로, 국내에서는 2009년에 사과에 피해를 준다는 것이 보고되었으나, 그 이외의 과수에서는 직접적인 피해가 명확히 알려지지 않았다. 본 연구는 핵과류인 복숭아와 자두를 대상으로 복숭아 순나방류의 피해로 보이는 피해순과 피해과를 채집하여, 복숭아순나방붙이와 그 유사종인 복숭아순나방(Grapholita molesta Busck)의 피해율을 비교 조사하였다. 두 유사종의 정확한 구별을 위해 우선 종 특이적 프라이머와 PCR 반응조건을 이용한 분자동정법을 개발하였다. 복숭아와 자두의 신초와 과실을 가해하는 종을 야외에서 채집하여 분자동정법으로 확인한 결과, 복숭아의 신초와 과실은 거의 모두 복숭아순나방이 가해하였으며, 자두는 신초의 경우 복숭아순나방이, 과실의 경우 복숭아순나방붙이가 주로 가해하는 것으로 나타났다. 즉, 복숭아와 자두에서 조사한 신초는 모두(100%) 복숭아순나방에 의해 피해를 받았으나, 복숭아 과실은 대부분(92.5%) 복숭아순나방이, 자두 과실은 대부분(97.0%) 복숭아순나방붙이가 가해하는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구결과는 복숭아순나방붙이가 복숭아 보다는 자두 과실에 주로 피해를 준다는 것을 보여주며, 특히 자두나무에서도 신초와 과실에 따라 각기 다른 종이 피해를 준다는 점을 보여준다. 이렇게, 기주식물에 따라 두 유사종의 가해특성이 다른 것은 복숭아와 자두과원에서 두 종의 발생을 예찰하는데 중요한 정보를 제공할 것으로 여겨진다.

아바스큘라 내생균근(arbuscular mycorrhizae, AM) 균은 대부분의 육상식물 뿌리와 공생하며, 식물의 성장에 도움을 주는 균이다. 인삼은 다년생 식물로서 뿌리를 약재로 사용하는 대표적인 약재 중 하나이다. 본 연구에서는 우리나라 8개 지역에서 인삼을 채집하여 AM 균을 염색을 통하여 형태적으로 관찰하고, 분자생물학적인 방법을 사용하여 뿌리내에 공생하는 다양한 AM 균을 확인하였다. 인삼의 뿌리에 감염되어 있는 AM 균을 염색하여 형태적으로 관찰한 결과 감염률이 낮고 흐리게 염색되었다. 또한 균사와 vesicle 이 발견되었고 이들은 Arum type 으로 판단되지만 arbuscule을 관찰하지 못했기 때문에 Arum-type으로 단정하기는 어려웠다. 식물 내에 공생하는 AM균들의 종류를 확인하기 위하여 채집된 인삼의 뿌리에서 내생균근 균의 DNA를 AM균에 특이적인 18s rDNA primer를 이용한 nested PCR을 수행하여 AM 균의 18S rDNA중 일부를 확보하였다. 증폭된 DNA는 클로닝을 통해서 개별 내생균근 균 종의 염기서열들로 분리하였고, 이들은 AluI, HinfI과 같은 제한 효소를 사용하여 RELP하였다. RELP 패턴에 따라 그룹을 나누어, 각 그룹에서 1개씩 염기서열 분석을 수행하였다. 염기서열은 기존의 서열과의 유사성과 계통 관계의 분석을 통하여 모두 AM균인 것으로 확인되었고, 다음 2개의 종과 가장 유사한 것으로 판단되었다; Paraglomus brasilianum, Glomus spurcum이 중 Paraglomus에 속하는 종인 P. brasil-ianum. 이 인삼의 뿌리에서 공통적으로 관찰되어 이들 균과 인삼과의 특이적 관계에 관하여 추측할 수 있었고, G. spurcum은 유사한 것으로 분석된 염기서열들이 계통도 상에서 특이한 분지를 형성하는 것으로 나타났는데, 이들 분지에 대해서는 확충된 염기서열들과 비교 분석과 같은 연구가 필요한 것으로 생각된다.

Freshwater farms are primarily located adjacent to rivers and lakes, facilitating the introduction and spread of pathogens into natural systems. Therefore, it is necessary to continuously monitor natural aquatic organisms, the breeding environment, and infection rates by pathogenic organisms. Fish and crustaceans were sampled 4 times in the Geum River estuary in 2016. The samples were analyzed for the presence of pathogens for reportable communicable diseases, including KHVD (koi herpesvirus disease), SVC (spring viraemia of carp), EUS (epizootic ulcerative syndrome) and WSD (white spot disease); parasite abundance was also examined. The dominant fish species were deep body bitterling Acanthorhodes macropterus (21.4%), followed by skygager Erythroculter erythropterus (12.7%). For crustaceans, Palaemon paucidens and Chinese mitten crab Eriocheir sinensis were dominant. Sixty fish and 36 crustacean species were examined for reportable communicable diseases. When using a specific primer set for each disease, PCR analysis did not detect any reportable communicable diseases in the samples. Some instances of Dactylogyrus, copepods, nematodes and metacercaria were detected. However, the PCR results indicated that the metacercaria were not Clonorchis sinensis.

In order to study the biological function of gapdh gene in yak, and prove whether the gapdh gene was a useful intra-reference gene that can be given an important role in molecular biology research of yak, the cDNA sequence encoding glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase from yak was cloned by the RT-PCR method using gene specific PCR primers. The sequence results indicated that the cloned cDNA fragment (1,008 bp) contained a 1,002 bp open reading frame, encoding 333 amino acids (AAs) with a molecular mass of 35.753 kDa. The deduced amino acids sequence showed a high level of sequence identity to Bos Taurus (99.70%), Xenopus laevis (94.29%), Homo sapiens (97.01%), Mus musculus (97.90%) and Sus scrofa (98.20%). The expression of yak's gapdh gene in heart, spleen, kidney and brain tissues was also detected; the results showed that the gapdh gene was expressed in all these tissues. Further analysis of yak GAPDH amino acid sequence implied that it contained a complete glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase active site (ASCTTNCL) which ranged from 148 to 155 amino acid residues. It also contained two conserved domains, a NAD binding domain in its N-terminal and a complete catalytic domain of sugar transport in its C-terminal. The phylogenetic analysis showed that yak and Bos taurus were the closest species. The prediction of secondary structures indicated that GAPDH of yak had a similar secondary structure to other isolated GAPDH. The results of this study suggested that the gapdh gene of yak was similar to other species and could be used as the intra-reference to analyze the expression of other genes in yak.

Aerides vandarum and Vanda stangeana are two rare and endangered vandaceous orchids with immense floricultural traits. The intergeneric hybrids were synthesized by performing reciprocal crosses between them. In vitro germination response of the immature hybrid embryos was found to be best on half-strength Murashige and Skoog medium supplemented with 20% (v/v) coconut water/liquid endosperm from tender coconut. Determination of hybridity was made as early as the immature seeds or embryos germinated in vitro, using randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers. Out of 15 arbitrarily chosen decamer RAPD primers, two were found to be useful in amplification of polymorphic bands specific to the parental species and their presence in the reciprocal crosses. However, a decisive profile that can identify the reciprocal crosses could not be provided by RAPD. Amplification of the trnL-F non-coding regions of chloroplast DNA of the parent species and hybrids aided easy identification of the reciprocal crosses from the fact that maternal inheritance of chloroplast DNA held true for these intergeneric hybrids. Subsequent restriction digestion of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplified trnL-F non-coding regions of chloroplast DNA also consolidated the finding. Such PCR-based molecular markers could be used for early determination of hybridity and easy identification of the reciprocal crosses.

This study was carried out to develop convenient and reproducible methods for identifying the genetic relationship among germplasms of Panax species based on molecular genetics. Using random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and inter simple sequence repeat (ISSR) analyses, genetic polymorphism of the Panax species was investigated with following cultivars and accessions, such as Chunpoong, Yunpoong, Kopoong, Sunpoong, and Kumpoong in domestic cultivars, Hwangsuk, Jakyung and Suckju in domestic accessions, and Panax quinquefolius L. and Panax japonicus C.A. Meyer in foreign introduced accessions, respectively. Specific DNA fragments ranging from 200 to 3,000 base pairs in size could be obtained with various ISSR and RAPD primers under the optimized PCR conditions. The dissimilarity coefficients among the genetic polymorphisms of ginseng cultivars and accessions were calculated from 0.26 to 0.90 in RAPD and from 0.12 to 0.89 in ISSR analysis, respectively. Eleven plant samples were grouped siblings together with cultivars and parents based on cluster analysis of genetic distance depending on genetic property such as origin of the species. In results, both RAPD and ISSR analyses were useful for identifying the genetic relationship among cultivars and accessions of Panax species at DNA level.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to report that applying the genetic discrimination method to Pinelliae Tuber is suitable as a countermeasure for the limitations of morphological identification announced publicly in the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety(MFDS). Methods : Randomly selected fifty samples in Pinelliae Tuber imported from China were used for morphological and genetic identification. The morphological identification was applied method announced publicly by the MFDS. The traits of morphological identification were classified as Pinellia ternata, P. tripartita, Pinellia pedatisecta, and Typhonium flagelliforme, according to the formation of tuberous root and tuber morphology. The genetic identifications were conducted by Sequence Characterized Amplified Region(SCAR) marker and DNA barcoding analysis for cross-validation, respectively. SCAR marker was verified according to the presence or absence of amplicon through PCR amplification using species-specific primers. DNA barcoding analysis used sequence information of the matK region. Results : As a result of the morphological identification, 27 out of 50 samples were identified as original species 'P. ternata' of genuine 'Pinelliae Tuber', and 23 were identified as adulterant species 'P. pedatisecta'. Unlike this, the genetic identification was identified as the original species 'P. ternata' in all 50 samples in the SCAR marker and matK regional sequence analysis. Conclusions : Pinelliae Tuber of morphological mutant that can not be classified by morphological identification is imported from China. The SCAR marker would be used as accurate and efficient assays for species identification of the morphological mutant.

As in the O. mykiss electrophoretic profiles of RNA, the signals of each RNA sample from 9 individual tissues such as liver, muscle, brain, heart, pituitary gland, kidney, intestine, spleen and gill similar to positive control were obtained. The tissue distributions of the complimentary DNA (cDNA) of O. mykiss four genes were analyzed using quantitative real-time PCR with primer sets for tissue expression analysis. In this rainbow trout species, author obtained bands of various sizes, ranged from 700 bp to 1,400 bp. A dissociation curve was made at the end of each run to make sure that there was no non-specific amplification. Supplementarily, the Ct of each DNA was compared. The Ct values of vinculin with rainbow trout tissues were determined in a manner similar to those for agouti-related protein (AgRP) and melanocortin receptors (MC4R I and MC4R II). Further, obtained Cts for standard curve of each DNA were affected by specific product (vinculin, AgRP and MC4R II genes). After several experiments with four individual genes of rainbow trout, author estimated a variation ratio of the mean Ct value of the DNA extracted using the comparative CTt method was 37.27, and the standard deviation was 5.33. The correlation coefficient between the Ct values and the concentration of cDNA was -0.98, -0.99, -0.91 and -0.86, respectively (vinculin, AgRP, MC4R I and MC4R II genes). Since this correlation showed high linearity, the straight line obtained was used as a standard for the O. mykiss tissues reared in aquarium. A PCR efficiency of 100% is ideally achieved when the slopes are close to the theoretical value of -3.31. According to quantification method, the results of quantification are strongly affected by the DNA fragmentation. The size of most DNA fragments obtained from various tissues of rainbow trout used in the experiment was approximately 100 bp. According to the four slopes, an efficiency of nearly 100% was estimated for four genes detection methods. Additionally, further analysis with more individuals and primers will be required to fully establish optimization in rainbow trout.
