국내의 토마토에서 발생하는 주요 바이러스는 Tomato chlorosis virus (ToCV), Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV), Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV), Pepper mottle virus (PepMoV), Tomato mosaic virus (ToMV)이다. 이들 바이러스를 진단하기 위해 프라이머 세트와 반응액을 포함하는 역전사중합반응(RT-PCR)법의 조건을 조사하였다. 공시한 바이러스에 특이적인 염기서열로부터 모두 46개 프라이머 세트를 설계하고, 이를 이용해 주형을 넣지 않은 RT-PCR에서 비특이 반응을 조사하였다. 이들 가운데 16개 조합을 건전한 토마토 RNA에 적용한 결과 프라이머 세트와 RT-PCR 반응액 간의 친화성이 비특이 반응 감소에 영향을 주었다. cDNA 합성과 관련된 인자와 RT-PCR 반응액 사이의 조합을 근거로 ToCV 진단을 위한 두 종류의 반응액을 선발하였다. ToCV 진단 시 수립된 조건을 나머지 바이러스 진단에 적용했을 때, 특이성이 높은 프라이머 세트 C029 (ToCV), C072 (TSWV), C070 (CMV), C048 (PepMoV), C065 (ToMV)를 선발할 수 있었다. 이들 프라이머 세트는 공시한 바이러스를 특이적으로 진단하는 데 유용할 것으로 판단된다.

In this paper, a rapid and reliable gene-targeted species-specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique based on a two-step process was established to identify bifidobacteria in dairy products. The first step was the PCR assay for genus Bifidobacterium with genus specific primers followed by the second step, which identified the species level with species-specific primer mixtures. Ten specific primer pairs, designed from nucleotide sequences of the 16-23S rRNA region, were developed for the Bifidobacterium species including B. angulatum, B. animalis, B. bifidum, B. breve, B. catenulatum, B. infantis, B. longum, B. minimum, B. subtile, and B. thermophilum. This technique was applied to the identification of Bifidobacterium species isolated from 6 probiotic products, and four different Bifidobacterium spp. (B. bifidum, B. longum, B. infantis, and B. breve) were identified. The findings indicated that the 16S-23S rDNA gene-targeted species-specific PCR technique is a simple and reliable method for identification of bifidobacteria in probiotic products. PCR combined with Denaturing Gradient Gel Electrophoresis (DGGE) for identification of the bifidobacteria was also evaluated and compared with the gene-targeted species-specific technique. Results indicated that for fermented milk products consistency was found for both species-specific PCR and PCR-DGGE in detecting species. However, in some lyophilized products, the bands corresponding to these species were not visualized in the DGGE profile but the specific PCR gave a positive result.

큰느타리버섯의 저온성적응성 형질에 관련된 SCAR marker를 개발하기 위하여 저온성 계통의 8균주와 대조구 8균주의 genomic DNA를 30 ug/ml의 농도로 bulking한 것을 주형 DNA로 사용하고 operon 사의 OPA(20개), OPB(20개), OPL(20개), OPP(20개), OPR(20개), OPS(20개) 등 총 120개 primer를 random primer(10 mer)로 사용하여 RAPD를 수행하였으며 이중에서 OP-S3 primer를 사용한 PCR 산물들이 대조구와 가장 뚜렷한 차이를 나타내었다. OP-S3 primer를 이용한 RAPD 결과, 약 480 bp 부근에서 저온성 계통에 특이적인 DNA band가 관찰되었으며 이 DNA band의 염기서열을 근거로 SCAR marker로 사용할 specific primer인 OP-S3-1-F와 OP-S3-1-R를 디자인하였다. SCAR marker OP-S3-1 primer를 이용하여 PCR을 수행한 결과에서는 저온성 계통에서만 480 bp 부근에서 대조구와 구별되는 DNA band를 확인할 수 있었으며 random primer인 OP-S3 primer를 이용하여 PCR을 수행했을 때보다 재현성이 높고 진한 DNA band를 확인할 수 있었다.

This study investigated the epidemiology of Listeria (L.) monocytogenes, a food-borne pathogen. The epidemiology of food-borne pathogens is of great importance for clarifying bacterial origin and preventing bacterial contamination and infection. This work examined 68 L. monocytogenes strains, including 11 reference strains and 57 isolates from imported US beef, domestic meats (beef, pork, chicken meat), raw milk, and milk plants. The random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) techniques were optimized to develop a standard molecular epidemiological analysis of L. monocytogenes. There was great genetic variability among the isolates, which produced 24 and 34 RAPD patterns with primer HLWL85 and HLWL74, respectively. The discriminatory power of the RAPD methods with HLWL85 and HLWL74 primer were very high (DI = 0.957; S ${\geq}$ 80%, S ${\geq}$ 95%). Some RAPD types were specific to origin. A few RAPD types were specific for L. monocytogenes strains belonging to a particular serotype. Using the HLWL85 primer, the strains isolated from milk plants could be distinguished from the other strains. And using the HLWL74 primer, the strains isolated from imported beef (US) could be distinguished completely from the other strains.

Human Astrovirus (HuAstV), known as a waterborne virus, is a group IV positive-sense single-stranded RNA that belongs to Astroviridae. The first outbreak of HuAstV was reported in England in 1975. HuAstV can exist not only among clinical patients but also in various water environments, such as water for agriculture and vegetables. For diagnosis of HuAstV from water samples, a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) system has been developed. However, the PCR-based diagnostic method has problems in field application, such as reaction time, sensitivity and specificity. For this reason, in this study we developed the loop-mediated isothermal amplification assay (LAMP) system, aimed specifically at HuAstV. Three prepared LAMP primer sets were tested by specificity, non-specificity and sensitivity; one LAMP primer set was selected with optimum reaction temperature. The developed LAMP primer set reaction conditions were confirmed at 62℃, and detection sensitivity was 1 fg/μL. In addition, restriction enzyme HaeIII (GG/CC) was introduced to confirm that the LAMP reaction was positive. As a result, selected LAMP primer set was 100 - 1000 times more specific, rapid, and sensitive than conventional-nested PCR methods. For verification of the developed LAMP assay, twenty samples of cDNA from groundwater samples were tested. We expect that the developed LAMP assay will be used to diagnose HuAstV from various samples.

Based on the rDNA ITS sequences data, specific primer set for PCR detection of wood-decaying fungus Phellinus linteus was designed. The length of PCR products using designed primer set(SHF and SHR) was about 540 bp. Among 11 species, 17 isolates of Phellinus spp. including Phellinus linteus, P. pomaceus, P. spiculosus, P. baumi, P. pini, P. igniarius, P. gilvus, P. biscuspidatus, P. weirii, P. johnsonianus, P. robutus, and P. igniarius, seven isolates of Phellinus linteus showed about 540 bp-sized single band. This molecular technique could offer a useful tool for detecting and identifying Phellinus linteus.

Getah virus (GETV) infection causes sporadic outbreaks of mild febrile illness in horses and reproductive failure in pigs. In this study, we established a reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) method to detect GETV from suspected virus-infected samples. The reaction conditions were optimized and validated by using RNA extracted from GETV propagated in cell culture. A GETV-specific GED4 primer set was designed and used to amplify a 177 bp DNA fragment from a highly conserved region of the E1 glycoprotein gene in the GETV genome. RT-PCR performed with this primer set revealed high sensitivity and specificity. In the sensitivity test, the GED4 primer set detected GETV RNA at the level of $10^{2.0}\;TCID_{50}/mL$. In the specificity test, the GED4 primer set amplified only a single band of PCR product on the GETV RNA template, without non-specific amplification, and exhibited no cross-reactivity with other viral RNAs. These results suggest that this newly established RT-PCR method is useful for accurate identification of GETV infection in animals.

본 연구는 유전자재조합 기술에 의해 개발된 glyphosate에 내성을 가지고 있는 콩(GTS)의 모니터링을 위하여 PCR을 이용한 검출 방법에 대한 실험을 수행하였다. Glyphosate에 내성이 있는 콩에 삽입된 유전자와 표준대조 유전자인 lectin과 ferritin 유전자를 근거로 제작된 primer와 CTAB 방법으로 추출된 콩의 DNA를 template로 이용하여 PCR을 수행하였다. GTS의 검출을 위한 제작된 primer들은 GTS와 특이적으로 반응하여 증폭된 PCR 산물을 생성하였으나, non-GTS와는 PCR 산물을 생성하지 못했다. 증폭된 염기서열 분석을 통하여 GTS에 특이적인 것을확인하였으며, 약 0.05%가 포함되어 있는 GTS까지 검출이 가능함을 보였다.

Despite increasing awareness of the importance of WRKY genes in plant defense signaling, the locations of these genes in the Capsicum genome have not been established. To develop WRKY-based markers, primer sequences were deduced from the conserved sequences of the DNA binding motif within the WRKY domains of tomato and pepper genes. These primers were derived from upstream and downstream parts of the conserved sequences of the three WRKY groups. Six primer combinations of each WRKY group were tested for polymorphisms between the mapping parents, C. annuum 'CM334' and C. annuum 'Chilsung-cho'. DNA fragments amplified by primer pairs deduced from WRKY Group II genes revealed high levels of polymorphism. Using 32 primer pairs to amplify upstream and downstream parts of the WRKY domain of WRKY group II genes, 60 polymorphic bands were detected. Polymorphisms were not detected with primer pairs from downstream parts of WRKY group II genes. Half of these primers were subjected to $F_2$ genotyping to construct a linkage map. Thirty of 41 markers were located evenly spaced on 20 of the 28 linkage groups, without clustering. This linkage map also consisted of 199 AFLP and 26 SSR markers. This WRKY-based marker system is a rapid and simple method for generating sequence-specific markers for plant gene families.
