Obligate endoparasitic oomycetes are known to ubiquitously occur in marine and freshwater diatoms, but their diversity is still largely unexplored. Many of these parasitoids are members of the early-diverging oomycete lineages (Miracula, Diatomophthora), others are within the Leptomitales of the Saprolegniomycetes (Ectrogella, Lagenisma) and some have been described in the Peronosporomycetes (Aphanomycopsis, Lagenidium). Even though some species have been recently described and two new genera were introduced (Miracula and Diatomophthora), the phylogeny and taxonomy of most of these organisms remain unresolved. This is contrasted by the high number of sequences from unclassified species, as recently revealed from environmental sequencing, suggesting the presence of several undiscovered species. In this study, a new species of Miracula is reported from a marine centric diatom (Minidiscus sp.) isolated from Skagaströnd harbor in Northwest Iceland. The morphology and life cycle traits of this novel oomycete parasite are described herein, and its taxonomic placement within the genus Miracula is confirmed by molecular phylogeny. As it cannot be assigned to any previously described species, it is introduced as Miracula islandica in this study. The genus Miracula thus contains three described holocarpic species (M. helgolandica, M. islandica, M. moenusica) to which likely additional species will need to be added in the future, considering the presence of several lineages known only from environmental sequencing that clustered within the Miracula clade.

본 연구는 우리나라 하천 내 주요 외래어류 종인 떡붕어(Carassius cuvieri), 배스(Micropterus salmoides), 블루길(Lepomis macrochirus)에 대한 국내 서식 환경을 확인하고, 어류 군집에 대한 영향을 분석하였다. 해당 외래어류종은 모두 어류 종수가 많고 종다양성이 높은 곳에 주로 서식하였다. 각 외래어류의 개체수가 증가할 때, 전체 어류의 출현 종수 및 개체수는 감소하여 어류 군집에 부정적인 영향을 보여주었다. 또한 생물 연결망을 구성한 결과, 하천 내 떡붕어는 쏘가리와 우리나라 고유종인 참갈겨니, 참중고기 등과, 배스와 블루길은 가물치 및 쏘가리와 고유종인 참중고기와 줄납자루 등과 낮은 출현 유사성을 보였다. 그리고 외래어류 3종 모두 각각의 연결망을 구성하는 다수의 어류들과 낮은 출현 유사성을 보여, 잠재적으로 외래어류에 의한 어류 군집 내 피해 및 교란이 크게 나타날 것으로 예상되었다. 본 연구의 결과, 국내 하천생태계 내 유입된 지 50년 가까이 지난 외래어류 3종은 여전히 하천 내 어류 군집과 국내 고유종에 부정적인 영향을 미치고 있었다. 따라서 하천 내 외래어류에 대한 지속적인 모니터링과 관리가 요구된다. 차후 다양한 외래어류 및 하천생태계 내 생물분류군에 대한 통합적 연구가 수행된다면, 하천생태계 전반에 대한 외래어류의 영향 평가 및 구체적인 생물 자원관리 방안 마련이 가능할 것이다.

We quantified temporal and spatial changes in the habitat for fish populations, the distribution of mandarin fish(Siniperca scherzeri) and an introduced species, largemouth bass(Micropterus salmoides) in Lake Paro and inflowing streams. The number of fish species identified in Lake Paro and the tributary streams included 10 families, 24 species and 10 families 30 species, respectively. The dominant fish species in Lake Paro were Zacco platypus, Hemibarbus labeo, Squalidus gracilis majimae, S. scherzeri and Tridentiger brevispinis, Z. platypus, Z. koreanus, and S. gracilis majimae in the inflowing streams. Although the habitat segregation for S. scherzeri and M. salmoides occurs, these two species showed the use of the fishes of the family Gobiidae as an important prey item based on IRI analysis. S. scherzeri and M. salmoides preyed mainly on T. brevispinis(67.4 %) and R. brunneus(84.0 %), respectively. The species preyed on by S. scherzeri and M. salmoides were benthic fishes that inhabit shallow water depths around the lake and have little swimming ability.

외래 도입종은 국내 생태계에 빈번히 심각한 문제점들을 일으켜왔고, 이러한 종 중의 하나가 일본에서 도입된 담수어류인 떡붕어 (Carassius cuvieri)이다. 국내 담수생태계에서 떡붕어의 해로운 영향들을 평가하기 위해 우선적으로 선행되어야 할 연구는 형태적으로 가장 유사한 종(Corassius auratus)으로부터 이들을 구분해야 하는 것이다. 전통적인 형태적 동정은 이들 종의 매우 유사한 표현형으로 인해 신뢰할 수 없는 결과들을 자주 보여주기 때문에 더욱 효과적인 방법이 필요하다. 이를 위해 본 연구에서는 3종류의 프라이머(DDF, DDR 그리고 DDR1)를 이용한 효율적인 one-step PCR분자마커를 개발 적용하였다. 이 분자마커는 국내 담수 생태계의 어류 군집 모니터링에 중요한 역할을 할 것으로 기대된다.

절경이과의 Plantago aristata Michx.(국명신칭: 긴포꽃질경이)가 경기도 고양시 한강하구에 자라고 있는 것으로 처음 확인되었다. 이 귀화식물은 선형인 잎(길이 9-20 cm, 폭 5-8 mm), 긴 선형의 포(길이 약 2.5 cm), 큰 흰꽃(직경 4-6 mm)으로 다른 한반도 질경이속 식물들과 구별된다. 북미 원산인 본 종은 인근 국가인 일본과 중국에도 유입되어 퍼져나가고 있는 것으로 보고되어 있다. 확증표본은 서울대학교 석엽표본관(SNU)에 소장하였다.

The apple snails of the genus Pomacea have been introduced by the snail breeders illegally into Korea. Authors confirmed that the natural life cycle of at least two pomacean species, Pomacea canaliculata and P. insularus, has been already settled down locally in the southern areas of Korea.

The effect of characteristic of mixture sowing combination on the development of botanical composition was conducted for 12 years on the meadow experiment. The results of this study were summarized as follows. 1. Festuca pratensis lost the expected position of a dominant species. Its vegetation ratio decreased gradually until the last survey year. 2. Arrhenatherum elatius, known as a typical 2-cutting grasss, developed to a dominant species only in the 3- cutting plot without limitation. 3. Alopecurus pratensis, whose feeding value diminishes rapidly, developed to a dominant species regardless of N-fertilization under the condition of 3-cutting, even though the same small amount of seeding was introduced as usual. 4. Trisetum flavescens which causes calcinose exceeded the 40% of vegetation ratio which was the approved rate for feeding at the high N-level (2OOKgIha). 5. Among the introduced, the species showed the significance in quantity were Lotus corniculafus solely in the 2-cutting plot, and Trifolium repens solely in the 3-cutting plot. In the 3-cutting plot legume yet remained under N-fertilization. 6. The appropriate ratio of vegetation for the subordinate species in the mixture sowing combination was easily attained from the least amount of seeding (Gramineae with max. 3Kg/ha, Leguminosae with max. 2kgIha). 7. Into the mixture sowing combination, infiltrated unintroduced species marked more noticeably in the 2- cutting plot than in the 3-cutting plot.

Sargassum filicinum Harvey, a brown alga (Phaeophyceae) native to Northeastern Asia, has been recently reported from the coast of Southern California (USA). Here we report the occurrence and range extension of this introduced species, as we found the alga at La Jolla and Rancho Packard in Todos Santos Bay, Baja California, Mexico. The first collections of S. filicinum correspond to several immature plants, found on September 8, 2005, drifting in the intertidal zone at La Jolla. Later on November 9, 2006, we found a well-established population in Rancho Packard in the middle intertidal zone to 2 m depth. Since S. filicinum is an annual monoecious species with air bladders, the risk there is a high risk of spreading rapidly along the Pacific, as in the case for S. muticum. The population in Rancho Packard extends 500 m along the coast, consisting mainly of young plants with an average length of 30 cm and a density of 5 thallus/m2. This is the first record of this invasive species for the Mexican Pacific coast, and it represents the southern limit along the Pacific coast of North America. This finding suggests that this invasive species has successfully colonized the Pacific coast of North America and its distributional range is still expanding.

자연식생 재현을 파악하기 위하여 리싸이클링에코녹화공법을 이용한 장흥다목적댐 배면부에 모니터링 시험구를 선정하였다. 모니터링 시험구는 2004년 5월에 설치하였고, 2004년 5월부터 2005년 10월까지 4차례 걸쳐 식물상, 식물군집구조, 자연이입종, 고사율을 모니터링 하였다. 우드칩 멀칭 후 출현 종 수 감소와 함께 출현식물의 도시화지수가 감소하여 자연성은 증진되었으며, 덩굴식물의 세력은 확장되었다. 낙엽활엽수군락에서 자연이 입종 수가 가장 많았고, 식재수목의 고사율도 높았다.

Nonthermal Atmospheric Pressure Plasmas and their Applications to Plasma Bioscience and Medicines have been introduced for next generation human healthcare's quantum developments. Various kinds of nonthermal atmospheric pressure plasmas have been introduced and their electron temperature and plasma densities along with reactive oxygen and nitrogen species have been diagnosed and analyzed for biological cell interactions, especially, used in Plasma Bioscience Research Center (PBRC), Korea. Herein, we have also introduced the plasma-initiated ultraviolet photolysis, which might be a generation mechanism for the reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS) intracellular and extracellular regions inside the liquid when the plasma has been bombarded onto the water. Finally we have investigated the interactions of these RONS with the various cancer cells resulting in apoptotic cell death.
