본 연구는 국내 토착화된 닭 12개 품종(재래종 5계통, 한국형 로드종 2계통, 한국형 레그혼종 2계통, 한국형 코니시종 2계통 및 한국오계)의 생리적 활성 정도를 비교하고 자품종 간 텔로미어 길이 및 생존 능력을 분석하였다. 분석에 총 466수를 공시하고 텔로미어 길이는 양적 형광접합보인법을 이용하여 각 개체의 백혈구 세포 내 telomeric DNA의 상대적 함량을 분석하였다. 각 품종의 생존 능력은 발생 후부터 50주령까지의 생존율로 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 모든 품종에서 공히 연령이 증가함에 따라 텔로미어 길이의 선형적 감소를 나타내었고, 품종 간 텔로미어 길이는 20주령 이후부터 유의한 차이를 보이고 동일 기간에 텔로미어 길이의 단축율에도 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다(P<0.01). 품종 간에 있어서는 한국형 로드-D종이 가장 긴 텔로미어 길이와 가장 낮은 텔로미어 단축율을 보였고, 반면 한국형 코니시 갈색종은 가장 짧은 텔로미어 길이와 가장 높은 단축율을 나타내었다. 텔로미어의 단축 정도는 50주령 텔로미어 길이는 8주령 길이의 절반 정도에 불과한 것으로 나타났다. 생존율에서도 품종 간 유의한 차이를 보이며 한국형 로드종과 오계가 상대적으로 높은 생존율을 보이고, 한국형 코니시종이 가장 저조한 생존율을 나타내었다. 생존율과 텔로미어길이 간에는 유의한 정(+)의 상관을 보이고 성장 초기보다는 노년의 텔로미어 길이가 생존율과 더 높은 상관관계를 나타내었다. 따라서 특정 시기의 텔로미어 길이보다는 일정기간 동안 텔로미어 길이의 단축율이 생존율과 더욱 밀접한 관련이 있는 것으로 사료된다. 이상의 텔로미어 역동성과 생존 능력 분석 결과를 바탕으로 토종닭 품종 중 한국형 로드종의 생리활성도가 가장 높고, 한국형 코니시종의 생리활성도가 가장 낮다고 판단된다.

This study was carried out to find out how space allowance affect the social behavior of Korean native cattle (Bos taurus coreanae) steers. Twelve Korean native cattle (Bos taurus coreanae) steers were used as subjects, each of which was 30-month-old and observation period was from June to July 2003. Five (T1) and seven (T2) steers were allotted to two pens of $5m{\times}10m$ in a building with slate roof and open sides respectively. They were fed at 09:00 h and 16:00 h, twice a day. The behaviors of steers were recorded from 06:00 h to 17:00 h, using two color CCD cameras (Samsung SDC-411, Korea), one B/W CCD cameras (Samsung SBC-340, Korea), one multiplexer (Samsung SDM-081, Korea) and a time lapse VCR (Samsung SRV-30, Korea). The behaviors of each steer were recorded every 2 min using an instantaneous point sampling method. While the mean percentage of time budget in WA of T1 was lower than that of T2 (p<0.05), the mean percentage of time budget in SF of T1 was higher than that of T2 (p<0.05). When it gets hot, steers in T1 rested from 10:00 h to 14:00 h when it gets cool, showing 40~80% of LD rate while steers in T2 rested from 12:00 h, when it very hot to 17:00 h, showing 20~50% of LD rate, which is relatively low. Steers in T1 were fed from 06:00 h to 08:00 h when it was cool and from 16:00 h to 18:00 h, showing 20~45% of EA rate while steers in T2 were fed from 08:00 h to 14:00 h when it was hot, showing 25~50% of EA rate. In conclusion, it turned out that the number of steers affected their social behavior, and T1 was better environment than T2 in terms of welfare.

The current study focused on the production of geminate nasal consonants across different word boundary types in Korean as a function of speech style to investigate whether temporal properties are preserved across varying speaking rates. Assimilated geminates in Korean, known as true geminates, are produced with distinctively longer consonant duration compared to singletons. Despite a large body of literature for geminates across different languages, geminates in Korean have been relatively less investigated with respect to the durational patterns in relative terms and temporal variabilities. In this study, singletons, word-internal geminates and word-boundary (fake) geminates produced by ten native Seoul Korean speakers were compared in terms of absolute consonant closure duration, preceding vowel duration, the relative ratios (consonant-to-preceding vowel duration) as well as the temporal variabilities in speech production. The results showed that word-internal geminates were produced with longer consonant duration and greater temporal variabilities than singletons and word-boundary geminates in absolute duration, indicating relatively greater flexibility in timing. However, only word-internal geminates were produced with distinctively longer consonant duration with significantly lower variability in relative duration regardless of speech styles. The results provide some insight into the representation of temporal information in the production of Korean geminate consonants.

This study examined the production of aspirated stop consonants in Korean and English words to address how the influences differed particularly in terms of proficiency in L2 English. Voice onset times (VOTs) were measured from two American monolinguals and seven Korean speakers. The results showed that VOT patterns for both L1 and L2 stops differed according to their proficiency in L2 English. In L2 English, high proficient speakers produced VOTs that were similar to those of native speakers of English whereas low proficient speakers produced VOTs that were significantly longer than those of proficient speakers. In L1 Korean and L2 English, most of the proficient speakers produced VOTs similarly. Unlike previous findings, Korean VOTs were even shorter than English counterparts. The VOT shortening of aspirated stops in Korean was found for most of the proficient speakers. The findings of the present study suggest that cross language phonetic influences as well as the ongoing VOT shortening in Korean aspirated stops may be correlated with L2 proficiency. Since this is a pilot study with a small number of subjects for each proficiency group, further quantitative study is necessary to generalize.

찹쌀 전분을 가교화 후 4가지 상업용 ${\alpha}$-amylase 효소와 반응시켜 CLE 찹쌀 전분을 제조하고 이들의 이화학적 특성을 연구하였다. CLE 찹쌀 전분의 팽윤력 및 용해도는 천연 찹쌀 전분에 비해 다소 증가되는 경향을 보였다. 등온흡습곡선에서는 CLE 처리에 따른 수분 감소현상을 보였으나 유의적인 차이는 없었다. RVA특성을 검토한 결과 Termamyl과 Liquozyme으로 처리한 찹쌀 전분은 전반적으로 효소에 의한 가수분해가 강하게 진행되어 온도에 따른 점도의 변화가 크게 나타나지 않았으며, Fungamyl과 Kleistase로 처리한 찹쌀 전분은 효소에 의한 가수분해가 상대적으로 미약하게 진행되어 가교화에 의한 특성을 더 많이 나타내었다. DSC 열적 특성의 경우 호화개시온도, 호화종결온도 그리고 호화온도범위, 호화 엔탈피 모두 각 전분간에 유의적인 차이가 나타나지 않았다. X-ray 회절 분석 결과 또한 CLE 찹쌀 전분과 천연 찹쌀 전분 모두 A형의 결정 형태를 나타내었고, 상대적 결정화도의 차이가 나타나지 않는 것으로 보아 가교화 및 가교화후 효소처리가 찹쌀 전분의 결정형영역에는 영향을 주지 않는 것으로 보여진다.

Purpose: To assess the effectiveness of an 8-session health education program to promote the health of married immigrant women. Methods: A quasi-experimental research design was employed. The subjects included 36 female marriage immigrant women (17 in the experimental group and 19 in the control group) who agreed to participate in this study. The intervention involved 8 sessions with a partnership strategy and was led by Public Health Nurses and the researcher. Our analysis included descriptive statistics, Fisher's exact test, t-test, and Pearson correlation coefficients. Results: The results revealed significant mean differences in terms of self-efficacy between the two groups. The mean of their self-efficacy was higher in the experimental group than in the control group, whereas there no mean differences were detected between the two groups in terms of health knowledge and self-esteem. Additionally, the knowledge of the immigrant women was correlated with their self-efficacy. Conclusion: The 8-session health education program was found to have an effect on self-efficacy, even with the limitations to methodological rigors posed by the subject-specific conditions. In the future, health education materials written in the native language of such women will need to be develop. Additionally, repeated studies will be required that involve randomized controlled trials characterized by better methodological strength and strategies to enhance participants’ interests and motives.

A lax stop in Korean, one of the three laryngeal contrastive stops, has undergone a sound change in terms of its acoustic properties. Prior production studies described this recent lax stop as being differentiated from tense and aspirated stops primarily by fundamental frequencies (f0). And, the acoustic property of voice onset time (VOT) further separates tense stops from lax and aspirated stops. The current research explores how these two major acoustic parameters of f0 and VOT cue the three stop categories in Korean adult listeners' perception. Thirty-one native speakers of Korean participated in two experimental tasks: categorization judgment and within-category goodness ratings. Two sets of audio stimuli were prepared by synthesizing English and Korean male speakers' CV productions. The findings showed that while f0 cues listeners to lax stops as production patterns would predict, VOT were closely related to listeners' categorization and goodness ratings of lax stops. This suggests that accurate characterizations of the recent lax stop category need to be based on Korean speakers' perceptual behavior as well as production patterns.

Objective: This study was intended to identify genes positively selected in Thoroughbred horses (THBs) that potentially contribute to their running performances. Methods: The genomes of THB and Jeju horses (JH, Korean native horse) were compared to identify genes positively selected in THB. We performed cross-population extended haplotype homozygosity (XP-EHH) and cross-population composite likelihood ratio test (XP-CLR) statistical methods for our analysis using whole genome resequencing data of 14 THB and 6 JH. Results: We identified 98 (XP-EHH) and 200 (XP-CLR) genes that are under positive selection in THB. Gene enrichment analysis identified 72 gene ontology biological process (GO BP) terms. The genes and GO BP terms explained some of THB's characteristics such as immunity, energy metabolism and eye size and function related to running performances. GO BP terms that play key roles in several cell signaling mechanisms, which affected ocular size and visual functions were identified. GO BP term Eye photoreceptor cell differentiation is among the terms annotated presumed to affect eye size. Conclusion: Our analysis revealed some positively selected candidate genes in THB related to their racing performances. The genes detected are related to the immunity, ocular size and function, and energy metabolism.

This study investigates how Korean students employ acoustic-phonetic cues in perceiving word boundaries of near-homophonous English phrases. For this study, 60 Korean college students participated in the experiment of discriminating word boundaries for 42 pairs of stimuli comprising the allophonic cues of aspiration and glottal stop. Results were analysed in terms of the correctness of responses and the correlation between correctness and confidence. Results showed that stimuli pairs of the glottal stop cue give a higher correctness but those of aspiration a relatively lower correctness. Comparison of the results of this study with those of the previous studies of English and Japanese speakers showed that Korean and Japanese speakers of English give a substantially lower correctness than native speakers of English, while Korean learners of English as a foreign language provide a lower correctness than Japanese speakers of English as a second language.
