  • Partial sequences of the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit Ⅰ(mtCOI) gene of veneroid clams were obtained to eluciadate molecular phylogeny. A total of nine veneroids and one corbiculid were collected from southern and western sea of Korea. The mtCOI sequences of the clams obtained from the present study and three veneroids sequences from GenBank were analyzed by maximum parsimony and neighbor-joining methods. The subfamilies Samarangiinae, Dorsiniinae, Cyclinae, Meretricinae and Chioninae were monophyletic, but Pitarinae was paraphyletic. One transitions and two transversions among two samples of Ruditapes philippinarum and a R. variegata were observed.

  • The random amplified polymorphic DNAs (RAPD) technique was used to characterize the genetic relationship of five species from in the family of Veneridae which is one of the commercially important clam family in Korea. The veneride clams' DNA were extracted from adductor muscular by the proteinase K-phenol method. Among 20 primers, 15 unit primers were amplified and produced at least, 2 or 3 from the top band. Genetic similarity between the purplish washington, Saxidomus purpuratus and the hard clam, Meretrix lusoria was the highest (0.87); the lowest genetic similarity (0.46) was formed between the little clam, Ruditapes philppinarum and the purplish washington, S. purpuratus. The genetic relationship between the venus clam, Protothaca jedoensis and the little clam, R. philppinarum was a closer than those between others. These results may indicate that the method of artificial seeding production of P. jedoensis for the propagation of resources can be focused on R. philppinarum.

  • Objective : The purpose of this study was to analyze the origin of Meretrix. Method : Bibliographies about Meretrix were examined focusing on the origin. Based on this analysis, the list and characteristics of the origin-mineral were presented. Results : Based on the Meretrix, the Korean and foreign literature were investigated to make a list, and the process of changing the origin was organized in chronological order. Based on these results, the shape of the currently cultivated or distributed drugs, the status of the distributed drugs and the status of the distributed products were summarized. In addition, the results of summarizing the adverse effects and sensitivities of the efficacy and prestige are as follows: 1. The origin of the Meretrix corresponded to the fall of the mollusks Merethrix metrix L. and Cyclina sinensis Gmelin, which are mollusks belonging to the reference family Veneridae. Their Herbal name is CONCHA CYCLINAE SEU MERETRICIS and they have therapeutic effects on cough, asthma, thirsty and chest heavies. 2. Munhap (文蛤) is a different name of GALLA CHINENSIS. It has therapeutic effects on various skin diseases. Conclusions : The Meretrix means two herbs. The first one is CONCHA CYCLINAE SEU MERETRICIS, the other is GALLA CHINENSIS. They should be used separately according to their clinical use.
