  • 일본, 중국, 대만 및 베트남에 분포하는 것으로 알려진 부처손과의 각시비늘이끼 (Selaginella heterostachys Baker)가 강원도 춘천시 남산면 강촌리 저지대에서 발견되었다. 이 종은 선비늘이끼와 유사하나 측면의 소엽이 난상이며 기부가 심장저이고, 중앙부의 소엽은 길며 정단부가 구부러진 점으로 구별된다. 국명은 선비늘이끼보다 중앙부의 소엽이 구부러져 각시의 치마와 비슷하여 각시비늘이끼라고 신칭하였다. 각시비늘이끼의 형태적 특징을 기재하였고, 도해와 생태 사진을 첨부하였다.

  • It was found that petroleum ether extract of White Ginseng had a very slightly stimulating effect on the RNA biosynthesis of Baker's yeast, while both ethanol extract of White Ginseng(WGpet-alc) and Red Ginseng Extract(RGE) showed a significant stimulating effect on the RNA biosynthesis and its activity to change mononucleotide composition of the yeast RNA was noticeable; RGE induced a remarkable decrease of AMP, CMP and especially of UMP, however a marked increase of GMP, and it was observed that the molar ratio of GMP was 78.5 % of all mononucleotides of the yeast RNA. It is of interest that these results are closely related with the stimulating effect of protein biosynthesis of Baker's yeast cells.

  • We explored the possibilities of using the freshwater rotifer Brachionus angularis as a live food for small fishes cultured in fresh- or brackish waters. Brachionus angularis were collected from a reservoir for isolation and laboratory culture. Length and width of the lorica were $102.3{\mu}m$ and $76.6{\mu}m$, respectively, and those of amictic eggs were $64.4{\mu}m\;and\;47.9{\mu}m$, respectively. When their growth rates were examined at six different temperatures, i.e., 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, and $40^{\circ}C$, the highest daily growth rate of 0.801 was observed at $35^{\circ}C$, and growth was lower with decreasing temperature. Adaptation to salinity change was evaluated with two different modes of salinity increase: step-wise elevation lasting for short durations of 5 to 30 min or a long duration of 24 h. With the short duration modes, no individuals survived salinity higher than 10 psu, and the number of live individuals did not increase throughout the experiment. However, in the 24-h elevation, the number of individuals increased when salinity was elevated by 1 to 2 psu per day for the first 2 or 3 days, while no increase in number occurred at salinity increments higher than 3 psu per day. In addition, to assess the effect of different diets, four single-component diets (Chlorella vulgaris, Nannochloris sp., baker's yeast, or dry yeast) and three combination diets (C. vulgaris + Nannochloris sp. + baker's yeast + dry yeast; C. vulgaris 70% + baker's yeast 30%; C. vulgaris 30% + baker's yeast 70%) were used. The specific growth rates of B. angularis fed combination diets were higher than those of rotifers fed any single-component diet, with the highest rate of 0.648 in B. angularis fed a mixture of C. vulgaris, Nannochloris sp., baker's yeast, and dry yeast, and the lowest rate of 0.200 in those fed dry yeast only. Our results indicate that the freshwater rotifer B. angularis can be used for seedling production of both freshwater and brackish-water fishes that require small (less than about $120{\mu}m$) live food during their early stages.
