A total of 64 individuals of Acanthogobius flavimanus, which inhabit the coast of Korea, were collected from 8 regions from July to August 2023. A haplotype network and a phylogenetic tree were created. The genomic DNA of the target fish species was compared and analyzed with the genomic DNA of four regions in Japan downloaded from the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI). In the haplotype network of Acanthogoboius flavimanus, Eocheong-do (EC) and Goseong (MAJ) exhibited low genetic similarity with other regions in Korea and Japan. The Phylogenetic tree showed that the population of MAJ exhibited differences in genetic structure compared to populations in other regions of Korea and Japan, indicating a distant relationship. Most marine organisms are known to migrate and spread via ocean currents, which is the most crucial factor promoting gene flow through larvae between populations. The haplotype of Acanthogobius flavimanus in MAJ differs from the haplotypes in Korea and Japan. The population in MAJ is believed to have limited genetic exchange due to the North Korea Cold Currents. We identified haplotype patterns based on the geographical distribution of Acanthogobius flavimanus off the coast of Korea and inferred that ocean currents have some influence on genetic distances.

천주교 대구교구청에 심어져 있는 오래된 왕벚나무의 기원을 추적하기 위하여 제주도에 자생하는 야생 왕벚나무와 재배 왕벚나무(Somei-yoshino cherry)의 계통분류학적 유연관계를 알아보았다. 한국과 일본에서 채집한 야생 왕벚나무, 재배 왕벚나무 및 근연종인 올벚나무, 총 25 개체에 대하여 cpDNA 두 구간(rpl16 유전자, trnS-trnG intergenic spacer)의 염기서열을 사용하여 계통수와 반수체형(haplotype) 네트워크를 작성하여 두 분류군을 비교하였다. 야생 왕벚나무와 재배 왕벚나무는 서로 구별되는 분류군으로 드러났으며, 비록 적은 샘플을 대상으로 비교적 짧은 유전자위가 사용되었지만 야생 왕벚나무는 재배 왕벚나무보다 반수체형 다양성이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 이는 야생 왕벚나무의 교배 기원에 모계쪽으로 기여한 것으로 알려진 올벚나무의 유전적 다양성에서 기인하는 것으로 추정된다. 따라서, 야생 왕벚나무와 재배 왕벚나무의 계통분류학적 관계를 보다 명확하게 파악하기 위하여 올벚나무를 한국과 일본의 다양한 분포 지역에서 넓게 채집하여 추가 연구를 실시할 필요가 있다고 생각된다. Taquet 신부가 제주에서 채집하여 대구에 옮겨 심었다고 추정되었던 천주교 대구교구청의 오래된 왕벚나무는 야생 왕벚나무가 아닌 재배 왕벚나무로 보는 것이 타당하다.

일배체형 조합 문제를 해결하기 위해 제시된 MLF(Minimum Letter Flips) 모델이나 WMLF(Weighted Minimum Letter Flips) 모델은 유전자형 정보를 도입함으로써 오류와 손실이 많을 때에도 높은 정확도를 얻을 수 있다. 그리고 MLF 모델에 비해 가중치 버전인 WMLF모델의 정확도가 높다는 사실도 밝혀졌다. 본 논문에서는 유전자형 정보상의 동형(homozygous)의 분포 비율과 유전자 서열판독기계의 성능에 따른 신뢰도의 차이를 매개변수로 하여 두 모델을 구체적으로 비교, 분석한다. 두 모델의 성능 비교를 위해 신경망과 유전자 알고리즘을 사용한다. 실험결과 동형의 비율이 크고 판독기계의 성능이 좋으면 특히 손실율과 오류율이 높은 경우에 WMLF/GI 모델의 정확도가 더 우수함을 보인다.

Objective: This study was carried out to assess the haplotype diversity and population dynamics in cattle populations of Ethiopia. Methods: We sequenced the complete mitochondrial cytochrome b gene of 76 animals from five indigenous and one Holstein Friesian${\times}$Barka cross bred cattle populations. Results: In the sequence analysis, 18 haplotypes were generated from 18 segregating sites and the average haplotype and nucleotide diversities were $0.7540{\pm}0.043$ and $0.0010{\pm}0.000$, respectively. The population differentiation analysis shows a weak population structure (4.55%) among the populations studied. Majority of the variation (95.45%) is observed by within populations. The overall average pair-wise distance ($F_{ST}$) was 0.049539 with the highest ($F_{ST}=0.1245$) and the lowest ($F_{ST}=0.011$) $F_{ST}$ distances observed between Boran and Abigar, and Sheko and Abigar from the indigenous cattle, respectively. The phylogenetic network analysis revealed that all the haplotypes detected clustered together with the Bos taurus cattle and converged to a haplogroup. No haplotype in Ethiopian cattle was observed clustered with the reference Bos indicus group. The mismatch distribution analysis indicates a single population expansion event among the cattle populations. Conclusion: Overall, high haplotype variability was observed among Ethiopian cattle populations and they share a common ancestor with Bos taurus.

The morphology and genetic identification of Rasbora lateristriata and Rasbora argyrotaenia between cultivated and wild populations has never been reported. This study compares morphology and cytochrome c oxidase (COI) genes between farmed and wild stock Rasbora spp. in Java and Sumatra island, Indonesia. We analyzed the truss network measurement (TNM) characters of 80 fish using discriminant function analysis statistical tests. DNA was extracted from muscle tissue of 24 fish specimens, which was then followed by polymerase chain reaction, sequencing, phylogenetic analysis, fixation index analysis, and statistical analysis of haplotype networks. Basic Local Alignment Search Tool analysis validated the following species: R. lateristriata and R. argyrotaenia from farming (Jogjakarta); Rasbora agryotaenia (Purworejo), R. lateristriata (Purworejo and Malang), Rasbora dusonensis (Palembang), and Rasbora einthovenii (Riau) from natural resources. Based on TNM characters, Rasbora spp. were divided into four groups, referring to four distinct characters in the middle of the body. The phylogenetic tree is divided into five clades. The genetic distance between R. argyrotaenia (Jogjakarta) and R. lateristriata (Malang) populations (0.66) was significantly different (p < 0.05). R. lateristriata (Purworejo) has the highest nucleotide diversity (0.43). R. argyrotaenia from Jogjakarta and Purworejo shared the same haplotype. The pattern of gene flow among them results from the two populations' close geographic proximity and environmental effects. R. argyrotaenia had low genetic diversity, therefore, increasing heterozygosity in cultivated populations is necessary to avoid inbreeding. Otherwise, R. lateristriata (Purworejo) had a greater gene variety that could be used to develop breeding. In conclusion, the middle body parts are a distinguishing morphometric character of Rasbora spp., and the COI gene is more heterozygous in the wild population than in farmed fish, therefore, enrichment of genetic variation is required for sustainable Rasbora fish farming.

The genus Semisulcospira is an economically and ecologically valuable freshwater resource. Among the species, Semisulcospira coreana, Semisulcospira forticosta and Semisulcospira tegulata are endemic to the Korean peninsula and Semisulcospira gottschei is widespread in Asia. Therefore, maintenance and conservation of wild populations of these snails are important. We investigated the genetic diversity and population structure of Semisulcospira based on the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI), NADH dehydrogenase subunit 4 (ND4), and combined mitochondrial DNA (COI + ND4) sequences. All four species and various genetic makers showed a high level of haplotype diversity and a low level of nucleotide diversity. In addition, Fu's Fs and Tajima's D neutrality tests were performed to assess the variation in size among populations. Neutrality tests of the four species yielded negative Fu's Fs and Tajima's D values, except for populations with one haplotype. The minimum spanning network indicated a common haplotype for populations of S. coreana, S. tegulata and S. gottschei, whereas S. forticosta had a rare haplotype. Also, genetic differences and gene flows between populations were assessed by analysis of molecular variance and using the pairwise fixation index. Our findings provided insight into the degree of preservation of the species' genetic diversity and could be utilized to enhance the management of endemic species.

The number of species of non-native and invasive marine algae is growing, with concomitant public concern about native ecosystems and coastlines. Gelidium vagum, recently introduced from northeast Asia to Europe and North America, commonly occurs from the intertidal to subtidal zones in Korea, China, and Japan. To investigate the level of genetic diversity of native populations, we analyzed mitochondrial cox1 and cob from 108 specimens of G. vagum from Korea, China, eastern Russia, including from the Netherlands and USA. The haplotype network of individual and cox1 + cob datasets revealed no genetic structure in local populations, suggesting genetic flow between Korean populations. Our results corroborate a typical pattern of genetic diversity for introduced species, with low levels in introduced populations and high levels in native populations. All haplotypes were shared between the Netherlands and USA, but not between Korea and the Netherlands / USA except cox1. Additional sampling will identify donor populations in native northeast Asian waters. This is the first report of the utility of the mitochondrial coding cob sequences in red algae.

South Korea presently harbors less than 800 long-tailed gorals (Naemorhedus caudatus), an endangered species. I report for the first time on the taxonomic status and genetic diversity of the Korean species using non-invasive fecal sampling based on mitochondrial cytochrome b gene sequence analyses. To determine the taxonomic status of this species, I reconstructed a consensus neighbor-joining tree and generated a minimum spanning network combining haplotype sequences obtained from feces with a new goral-specific primer set developed using known sequences of the Korean goral and related species (e.g., Russian goral, Chinese goral, Himalayan goral, Japanese serow, etc.). I also examined the genetic diversity of this species. The Korean goral showed only three different haplotypes. The phylogenetic tree and parsimony haplotype network revealed a single cluster of Korean and Russian gorals, separate from related species. Generally, the Korean goral has a relatively low genetic diversity compared with that of other ungulate species (e.g., moose and red deer). I preliminarily showcased the application of non-invasive fecal sampling to the study of genetic characteristics, including the taxonomic status and genetic diversity of gorals, based on mitochondrial DNA. More phylogenetic studies are necessary to ensure the conservation of goral populations throughout South Korea.

본 연구는 2006년 8월부터 2007년 9월까지 여수, 남해, 진도, 무안, 거문도, 서산 및 중국의 산동에서 포획한 낙지 유전자 집단을 분석하기 위하여 미토콘드리아 16S rRNA 염기서열로 조사했다. 유전자 분석은 총 28 개체로부터 11개의 haplotype이 발견되었다. 유전자 분화율은 0.2-1.2% 범위로 나타났다. Haplotype에 대한 PHYLIP 및 network 조사에 따르면 낙지는 두개의 clade (clade AIclade B)로 나뉘어지며, clade 사이의 분화율은 0.4%로 나타났다. 지역적 거리에 따라 haplotype이 다음과 같이 분화되었다. 하나는 여수, 남해, 무안, 진도 haplotype과 다른 하나는 서산, 거문도, 산동 haplotype으로 나뉘어졌다. 계충구조 분석에서도 한국 낙지집단 및 중국과의 유전적 차이를 볼 수 있으나, 현저한 지역적 차이는 나타나지 않았다. 따라서 한국연안에 서식하고 있는 일부 낙지집단은 gene flow에 의해서 유전적 동질성을 나타낼 수 있지만, 한국집단 간 뿐만 아니라 중국집단과의 유전적 분화는 지역적 거리 및 장벽으로 인하여 제한적인 gene flow로 설명될 수 있다.

본 연구는 2011년 9월에서 12월까지 동해(북부, 중부, 남부), 서해, 동중국해의 해구에서 각각 채집된 살오징어의 계군을 형태 및 유전학 차이를 이용하여 구분하였다. 형태학적 차이에 따른 계군분석은 평균성숙외투장(20-22 cm)을 기준으로 하여 발생시기를 구분하였고, 유전학적 특성에 따른 계군은 mtDNA COI 영역의 염기변이에 의한 유전자 다양성을 이용하여 확인하였다. 본 연구 결과 평균성숙외투장을 기준으로 동해 북부는 발생시기가 하계군, 나머지 집단(동해 중부, 동해 남부, 동중국해 북부, 서해 북부)은 추계군으로 크게 2개의 계군으로 추정되었다. 유전자 분석결과 살오징어 mtDNA COI 영역에서 총 49개의 haplotype을 확인하였다. TCS 분석결과 haplotype 유전자형 네트워크가 star-like형태이며, 모든 집단에서 유전적 다양성(haplotype diversity, h)이 높고(h=0.661~0.841), 반면에 염기 다양도(nucleotide diversity, ${\pi}$)가 낮게 나타난 점으로 미루어보아 국내 서식 살오징어의 경우 최근에 급속한 집단의 분화가 이루어진 것으로 판단된다. Pairwise Fst를 이용한 집단분석결과 비록 모든 집단간의 유전적 차이가 낮게 나타났지만(Fst = 0.001~0.043) 평균성숙외투장 기준으로 같은 추계군으로 분류된 집단(동해 중부, 동해남부, 서해 북부)간에는 유전적 차이를 확인할 수 있었다(P<0.05).
