Objective: In Japan, approximately 50 breeds of indigenous domestic chicken, called Japanese native chickens (JNCs), have been developed. JNCs gradually became established based on three major original groups, "Jidori", "Shoukoku", and "Shamo". Tosa-Jidori is a breed of Jidori, and archival records as well as its morphologically primitive characters suggest an ancient origin. Although Jidori is thought to have been introduced from East Asia, a previous study based on mitochondrial D-loop sequences demonstrated that Tosa-Jidori belongs to haplogroup D, which is abundant in Southeast Asia but rare in other regions, and a Southeast Asian origin for Tosa-Jidori was therefore suggested. The relatively small size of the D-loop region offers limited resolution in comparison with mitogenome phylogeny. This study was conducted to determine the phylogenetic position of the Tosa-Jidori breed based on complete mitochondrial D-loop and mitogenome sequences, and to clarify its evolutionary relationships, possible maternal origin and routes of introduction into Japan. Methods: Maximum likelihood and parsimony trees were based on 133 chickens and consisted of 86 mitogenome sequences as well as 47 D-loop sequences. Results: This is the first report of the complete mitogenome not only for the Tosa-Jidori breed, but also for a member of one of the three major original groups of JNCs. Our phylogenetic analysis based on D-loop and mitogenome sequences suggests that Tosa-Jidori individuals characterized in this study belong to the haplogroup D as well as the sub-haplogroup E1. Conclusion: The sub-haplogroup E1 is relatively common in East Asia, and so although the Southeast Asian origin hypothesis cannot be rejected, East Asia is another possible origin of Tosa-Jidori. This study highlights the complicated origin and breeding history of Tosa-Jidori and other JNC breeds.

Blood samples were collected from eight native Japanese breeds of chickens (Miyadi-dori, Ohiki, Onaga-dori, Shoukoku, Tosa-Jidori, Tosa-Kukin, Toutenkou and Uzurao) and two foreign breeds of chickens (White Leghorn and Rhode Island Red) to examine the genetic variability and relationships among the breeds by using a microsatellite DNA technique. Except for the Shoukoku breed, the other Japanese chicken breeds all originate from Kochi Prefecture. Ohiki, Onaga-dori, Tosa-Jidori, Toutenkou and Uzurao are fancy fowl, and Miyadi-dori and Tosa-Kukin are utility fowl. Among the fancy fowl, Ohiki, Onaga-dori, and Toutenkou males have thick and long feathers in the saddle and tail. Genetic variabilities of the 20 microsatellites examined, varied depending on the breed: the mean number of alleles per locus ranged from 2.05 (Miyadi-dori) to 3.90 (Rhode Island Red); proportion of polymorphic loci ranged from 0.75 (Miyadi-dori) to 1.00 (Rhode Island Red, Shoukoku and Uzurao); and mean expected heterozygosity ranged from 0.330 (Miyadi-dori) to 0.607 (Rhode Island Red). Unique microsatellite alleles were detected in each breed. Using the neighbour-joining method, phylogenetic trees were constructed based on the genetic distances of D$_{A}$ and D$_{ST}$. Among the breeds originating from Kochi Prefecture, fancy and utility breeds belonged to different clusters. Among the fancy breeds, those having thick and long feathers in the tail and saddle showed a close genetic relationship to the Shoukoku breed, which also has thick and long feathers in the tail and saddle.

국립중앙박물관 소장 <무라사키노 자일 놀이(紫野子日遊圖)·오이강 유람도 병풍(大井川遊覽圖屛風)>(이하 국박본으로 지칭)은 일본 교토 궁정의 화사(畫事)를 전담한 직책인 에도코로아즈카리(繪所預)였던 도사 미쓰요시(土佐光芳, 1700~1772)의 묵서와 인장을 지닌 김병풍(金屛風) 한 쌍이다. 이 병풍은 국립중앙박물관이 2018년 미국 뉴욕에서 구입한 것으로, 판매자에 따르면 20세기 초 어느 시점에 일본에서 미국으로 건너왔으나 그 자세한 시점은 불명이라고 한다. 여섯 면의 두 폭 한 쌍으로 이루어진 이 병풍은 오른쪽 병풍에 새해 정월 자일(子日)에 야외로 나가 어린 소나무 묘목을 채집하는 궁중 행사인 '자일 놀이(子日遊)'의 장면을, 왼쪽 병풍에 교토 오이강(大井川)에 한시(漢詩), 와카(和歌), 관현(管弦)을 의미하는 세 척의 배를 띄워 유람했다는 '세 척의 배(三船の才)' 고사 장면을 그렸다. 이 작품은 훗코야마토에(復古やまと繪) 장르를 대표하는 화가인 우키타 잇케이(浮田一蕙, 1795~1859)가 고메이 천황(孝明天皇, 1831~1867)의 명으로 제작한 교토 센뉴사(泉涌寺) 소장 <무라사키노 자일 놀이(紫野子日遊圖)·오이강 유람도 병풍(大井川遊覽圖屛風)>(이하 센뉴사본으로 지칭)과 화제와 도상이 일치한다. 단독 작품으로 제작된 사례는 다수 찾을 수 있는 '자일 놀이'와 '오이강 유람' 화제가 서로 짝을 이루어 한 작품으로 제작된 작례는 현재까지 국박본과 센뉴사본뿐이다. 부케덴소(武家傳奏) 히로하시 가네타네(廣橋兼胤, 1715~1781)의 일기인 『히로하시가네타네코부고요닛키(廣橋兼胤公武御用日記)』에 따르면 1760년, 미쓰요시는 1709년(보영도(寶永度))에 건축된 교토 고쇼(御所)의 전각인 쓰네고텐(常御殿) 내부의 낡은 후스마에(襖繪)를 새 것으로 교체하는 임무를 맡았다. 미쓰요시는 이때 국박본의 주제와 도상을 구상할 기본 자료를 얻었다고 생각된다. 당시 쓰네고텐 내부에는 가노파 화가가 그린 '봄날의 야외 행차(春日野行幸)'와 '오이강을 떠다니는 세 척의 배(大井川逍遙三艘)'라는 화제의 후스마에가 연속되어 배치되어 있었다. 미쓰요시는 1760년 쓰네고텐 후스마에 교체 작업을 통해 '오이강 유람' 화제의 도상을 학습하고 '자일 놀이'와 '오이강 유람' 화제를 서로 짝을 지어 한 쌍의 병풍으로 제작한다는 구상을 하게 된 것으로 보인다. 새해 정월 첫 자일에 어린 소나무를 채집하는 행위는 장수(長壽)를 기원하는 길상적인 의미를 가진다. 오이강에 각각 한시, 와카, 관현을 의미하는 세 척의 배를 띄워 유람했다는 '세 척의 배' 고사는 교토 궁정의 필수 교양인 한시, 와카, 관현의 삼재에 모두 능통한 인재를 뜻한다. 이처럼 길한 주제의 병풍이 소용되는 자리로는 천황의 즉위식을 제일 먼저 고려할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 교토 궁정 관련 화사를 전담했던 도사 미쓰요시가 천황 즉위식이나 연중행사 등 궁정 의례에서 사용할 목적으로 국박본을 제작했을 가능성을 제시해보고자 한다.

The complete mtDNA D-loop regions of Japanese and Korean cattle were analyzed for their mtDNA variations and genetic relationships. Sequencing the 30 Higo substrain and 30 Tosa substrain of Japanese Brown, respectively 12 and 17 distinct Bos haplotypes were identified from 77 polymorphic nucleotide sites. In order to focus on the relationships among Japanese and Korean cattle, two types of phylogenetic tree were constructed using individual sequences; first, a neighbor-joining tree with all sequences and second, reduced median networks within each Japanese and Korean cattle group. The trees revealed that two major mtDNA haplotype groups, T3 and T4, were represented in Japanese and Korean cattle. The T4 haplogroup predominated in Japanese Black and Japanese Brown cattle (frequency of 43.3-66.7%), while the T3 haplogroup was predominant (83.3%) and T4 was represented only twice in the Korean cattle. The results suggested that the mitochondrial origins of Japanese Brown were Japanese ancient cattle as well as Japanese Black in despite of the considerable introgression of Korean and European cattle into Japanese Brown.

PURPOSE. The aim of this study was to introduce rating criteria to evaluate student performance in a newly developed, digital wax-up preclinical program for computer-aided design (CAD) of full-coverage crowns and preliminarily investigate the reliability and internal consistency of the rating system. MATERIALS AND METHODS. This study, conducted in 2017, enrolled 47 fifth-year dental students of Okayama University Dental School. Digital wax-up training included a fundamental practice using computer graphics (CG), multipurpose CAD software programs, and an advanced practice to execute a digital wax-up of the right mandibular second molar (#47). Each student's digital wax-up work (stereolithography data) was evaluated by two instructors using seven qualitative criteria. The total qualitative score (0-90) of the criteria was calculated. The total volumetric discrepancy between each student's digital wax-up work and a reference prepared by an instructor was automatically measured by the CAD software. The inter-rater reliability of each criterion was analyzed using a weighted kappa index. The relationship between the total volume discrepancy and the total qualitative score was analyzed using Spearman's correlation. RESULTS. The weighted kappa values for the seven qualitative criteria ranged from 0.62 - 0.93. The total qualitative score and the total volumetric discrepancy were negatively correlated (ρ = -0.27, P = .09, respectively); however, this was not statistically significant. CONCLUSION. The established qualitative criteria to evaluate students' work showed sufficiently high inter-rater reliability; however, the digitally measured volumetric discrepancy could not sufficiently predict the total qualitative score.
