본 연구는 잘피 추출물의 화장품 소재로서 활용가능성을 평가하기 위해 건조된 잘피 전체, 뿌리, 잎 줄기를 70% 에탄올로 추출하여 항균활성을 확인하였다. 잘피 추출물의 항균활성은 Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Candida albicans, Propionibacterium acnes 균주로 disc diffusion 방법을 통해 생육저해환(clear zone)을 측정하였다. 그 결과 잘피 뿌리 추출물처리군에서 Staphylococcus epidermidis의 clear zone이 $13.00{\pm}0.50mm$로 확인되었고, Staphylococcus aureus, Propionibacterium acnes, Pseudomonas aeruginosa의 clear zone은 각각 $11.75{\pm}0.25mm$, $12.00{\pm}0.50mm$, $12.25{\pm}0.25mm$로 확인되어 잘피 추출물의 항균 효능을 확인할 수 있었다.

울릉도에 자생하는 거머리말속 잘피 분포 현황을 밝히기 위해 2019년 9월말 울릉도 연안과 항내에서 선박을 이용하여 잠수조사를 하였다. 잘피 생육 환경을 조사하기 위해 잘피가 서식하는 장소의 해수와 퇴적물 공극수의 영양염 농도, 염분 및 퇴적물의 유기물 함량을 분석하였다. 울릉도 천부리, 저동리, 사동리와 남양리 연안에는 비교적 깊은 수심(14~24 m)에서 수거머리말 군락지가 관찰되었고, 총 생육면적은 약 4.9 ha이었다. 현포리 현포항내에는 3~5 m의 수심에서 생육면적 약 0.9 ha의 거머리말이 서식하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 수거머리말의 평균 생육밀도와 생체량은 각각 121.9±9.7 shoot m^-2와 99.0±13.2 gDW m^-2로 서식지별로 유의한 차이가 나타나지 않았고, 거머리말의 생육밀도와 생체량은 각각 193.8±18.8 shoot m^-2와 102.6±6.8 gDW m^-2로 나타났다. 울릉도의 수거머리말과 거머리말 군락지 퇴적물의 영양염 농도와 퇴적물 유기물 함량은 남해안과 동해안의 잘피군락지보다 낮은 값을 보였다. 본 연구결과는 울릉도 연안의 거머리말속 잘피 현황을 최초로 보고하며, 해양보호구역으로 지정된 울릉도 해역의 보존과 해양보호생물인 수거머리말과 거머리말 보호에 유용한 기초자료를 제공할 것이다.

To study the difference in growth characteristics between intertidal and subtidal eelgrass Zostera marina populations, environmental factors and changes in tissue carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) contents in eelgrass from the lower intertidal and upper subtidal zones were surveyed monthly in the Seomjin Estuary from May 2003 to December 2004. Water temperatures, water column nutrient concentrations, sediment pore water, and ammonium and phosphate concentrations showed no significant differences between intertidal and subtidal zones. Sediment pore water nitrate+nitrite concentrations were slightly higher in the intertidal zone than in the subtidal zone. Average monthly exposure times in the intertidal and subtidal zones were $42.4{\pm}5.8h\;month^{-1}$ and $15.3{\pm}3.5h\;month^{-1}$, respectively. Eelgrass leaf N content decreased from March to August and increased from September to February in the subtidal zone, whereas these trends were not observed in the intertidal zone. Eelgrass rhizome C content increased from April to September and decreased from October to March in the subtidal zone, whereas those tendencies were not recorded in the intertidal zone. Eelgrass rhizome C:N ratios showed a strong reverse trend to leaf C:N ratios in the subtidal zone, but these tendencies were not observed in the intertidal zone. The effects of exposure appeared to cause no seasonal trend in eelgrass tissue C and N content or C:N ratios in the intertidal zone in the Seomjin Estuary.

In this study, crude extracts of the marine eelgrass Zostera japonica and their solvent-partitioned fractions were evaluated for their inhibitory effect against AGS, HT-1080 and MCF-7 human cancer cells using MTT assay. Each of the crude extracts (acetone/methylene, chloride, and methanol) of Z. japonica showed a significant inhibitory effect on the growth of human cancer cells. The combined crude extracts were partitioned between $CH_2Cl_2$ and water. The organic layer was further partitioned between 85% aq. MeOH and n-hexane, and the aqueous layer was then fractionated into n-BuOH and $H_2O$, successively. Growth inhibition effects of solvent-partitioned fractions from Z. japonica on human cancer cells increased in a dose-dependent manner. Among these tested samples, the 85% aq. MeOH fraction revealed good inhibitory effects on the growth of AGS and HT-1080 human cancer cells, while the n-hexane fraction exhibited good inhibitory effects on the growth of AGS and MCF-7 human cancer cells. In addition, 85% aq. MeOH and n-hexane fractions enhanced mRNA expression of p53 gene. These results suggest that there is further scope for the isolation of active compounds from Z. japonica, which should show much stronger anticancer activity.

Since cultural eutrophication has the detrimental effects on estuarine and coastal ecosystems, recognition of early stage of nutrient over-enrichment is critical for effective managements of the ecosystems. Since released nutrients into coastal ecosystems are diluted and dissipated through tidal action and rapid uptakes by marine plants, monitoring of in situ nutrient concentrations may not be useful for detecting early eutrophication on coastal and estuarine ecosystems. To develop an effective indicator of cultural eutrophication using marine plants, tissue N content and area normalized leaf mass of eelgrass, Zostera marina were examined in Kosung Bay and Koje Bay on the south coast of Korea from June 2001 to April 2003. Eelgrass tissue N content exhibited obvious seasonal variations. Leaf N content was highest during winter and early spring and lowest during summer. Eelgrass tissue N content was higher at Kosung Bay site, which has higher sediment organic content, than at Koje Bay site. Area normalized leaf mass showed reverse trend of leaf N content, and consequently, eelgrass leaf N content and leaf mass exhibited strong negative correlation at both study sites. The results of the present study suggested that the ratio of eelgrass leaf N content to area normalized leaf mass can be applied to assess environmental nitrogen conditions on the coastal and estuarine ecosystems.

We measured the secondary production of the amphipod Monocorophium acherusicum Costa in a seagrass bed (Zostera marina L.) in Gwangyang Bay, southern Korea. M. acherusicum biomass was positively correlated (P<0.05) with seagrass standing crop, suggesting that there were biological interactions between the two species. M. acherusicum displays two main breeding periods per year: spring (March to April) and fall (October to November). M. acherusicum biomass in the spring breeding periods was higher than in the fall. Annual secondary production of M. acherusicum was 3.54 g DW/$m^2$/yr with an annual P/B ratio of 3.48. Secondary production and the P/B ratio of M. acherusicum were lower than those observed for other amphipods inhabiting seagrass beds. These results suggest that biological interactions between M. acherusicum and seagrass, as well as dietary competition with other amphipods can potentially cause declines in secondary production and the P/B ratio.

한국에 자생하는 거머리말속(Zostera, Zosteraceae)에 포함되는 수거머리말(Z. caulescen Miki)의 형태 및 생태학적 특성을 파악하기 위하여 생육환경, 외부형태학적 형질, 잎과 종자의 미세 구조를 비교 분석하였다. 우리나라 해역에서는 남해연안의 거제 가배리와 진도 죽림리에서만 수거머리말의 실체가 확인되었으며, 생육지의 환경은 파랑의 영향이 적은 내만의 수심 $3.0{\sim}6.5m$의 사니질 또는 니사질의 퇴적환경에서 출현하였다. 생식지의 길이, 잎 너비, 엽맥 수, 잎 표피 세포의 크기와 수, 종피의 늑골 수, 생식지 상에 수관 형성 여부, 잎 가장자리와 중앙의 두께 및 색조의 차이, 종자 표면의 anthocyanin색소 집적에 따른 자주색의 반점,잎 표피세포의 기본모양에서 수거미리 말은 뚜렷하게 구별되었다. 남해안 가배와 죽림의 집단에서 생육지에 따른 외부 형태학적 차이는 나타나지 않았으나, 하계의 생육밀도와 생물량은 가배리$(367.3m^{-2},\;725.7g\;dry\;wt\p;m^{-2})$에서 죽림리$(112.5m^{-2},\;392.0\;g\;dry\;wt\;m^{-2})$보다 높게 나타났다. 지상부의 생물량은 지하부보다 높게 나타났으며, 생육밀도와 생물량은 생식지의 개체수와 개체 당 생물량에 따라 큰 차이를 나타내었다.

This research has been dealt with the nutritional component analysis of two kinds of non-edible marine algae, Sargassum herneri (Turner) C. Ag. and Zostera marina Linne which grow abundantly around the southern coast of Korea, These marine algae were mixed in several kinds of samples rates with the combined feed for poultry sold in the market. These were given to 35 chicken in seven test divisions respectively. We have experimented with 35 chicken grown up for two weeks after hatchout. The combined food for poultry obtained from the market was set up as control divisions. The experiments were as follows: 1) The average weight increase in each test division during feeding (Table 5, Fig.2). 2) Food conversion rate and food efficiency in each test division (Table 7). 3) The comparison of digestive rate of crude protein during feeding (Table 8), The results were as follows: 1) The weight increasing rate of the test animal stock fed the food containing $5\~10\%$ of Sargassum horneri (Turner) C. Ag. powder was higher than the rate of those fed only market food for poultry. 2) The stock given food containing $10\%$ Zostera marine powder showed lower growth than the control divison. 3) No apparent trouble owing to salt component involved in the marine algae was found. 4) The stock given food containing sodium glutaminate and Sargassum horneri (Turner) C. Ag. had better result than that without sodium glutaminate.

본 연구는 우리나라의 대표적인 잘피 2종인 거머리말과 게바다말의 빛, 염분과 수온 조건에 따른 발아율을 조사하였다. 빛의 유무는 거머리말의 발아에는 영향을 주지 않았으나, 게바다말은 유광조건에서 발아율이 유의하게 높았다. 거머리말과 게바다말은 각각 0 psu와 15 psu에서 발아율이 가장 높았고, 두 종 모두 염분이 증가할수록 발아율이 급격히 낮아졌다. 최적 수온조건은 거머리말과 게바다말이 각각 $5^{\circ}C$와 $15^{\circ}C$로 나타났으며, $25^{\circ}C$에서는 현저히 낮았다. 이러한 거머리말과 게바다말의 최적 발아율의 차이는 두 종의 서식환경의 차이에서 기인하는 것으로 추측된다. 지금까지 우리나라 연안에 분포하는 잘피 종자의 발아에 대한 자료가 전무하므로, 이 결과는 잘피서식지 보전에도 중요한 정보를 제공할 것이다.
