  • Q-fever is a vector-borne (Coxiella [C.] burnetii) zoonotic disease that is an increasing public health concern. To date, some research about Q-fever prevalence in dairy herds and human patients has been reported in Korea, but information about Korean native cattle is scarce. To measure the prevalence rates of C. burnetii in Korean native cattle, a total of 1,095 bovine serum samples collected during 2010~2013 were analyzed with an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Sixty-eight heads of cattle were diagnosed as positive and while 19 heads were suspected (positive rate = 6.2%). Interestingly, Jeju province had a seropositivity rate six times greater than that of other provinces (18.9% vs. 3.2%). High seroprevalence might be caused by wide distribution of ticks in Jeju province compared to other regions. Based on these data, extensive monitoring of C. burnetii infection in cattle, tick distribution, and climate changes is required.

  • This study was conducted to grasp distribution of native plants in flower market and uses of native plants in floral decoration. This study was investigated native plants sold in flower market(2017.01-2017.12) and their monthly sales. Also, this study analyzed the use of native plants, frequency of native plants classified by form and color of native plants used for floral decoration in flower magazines 'Fleur' and 'The Flower'. Among 172 species distributed cut-flower, native plants in Korea flower market are only 24 species(14.0%). Number of filler flower(15 species) is more than other forms. Native plants used in 'Fleur' and 'The Flower' were 14 species(10.2%) and 17 species(9.6%), it is meaning that native plants were less used than foreign plants. The number of filler flower was the highest in both magazines, but form flower(299 works) in 'Fleur' and mass flower(571 works) in 'The Flower' are used most frequently. According to color analysis of native plants used for floral decoration, P(purple), PB(navy) and RP(reddish purple) were 57% of the total. It can be increased native plants uses in flower decoration with developing form and mass flower considering color preference.

  • The hemoglobin phenotypes and the gene frequencies of 223 Cheju native horses were studied by starch gel electrophoresis. The results obtained were as follows: 1. In the hemoglobin phenotypes, three phenotypes, HbAA, HbAa and Hbaa, which were controlled by two allelic genes. $Hb^A$ and $Hb^a$, were observed and their frequencies of appearance were 65.47%, 30.04% and 4.48% respectively. 2. The distribution of gene frequency was calculated as 0.805 in $Hb^A$ and 0.195 in $Hb^a$.

  • This research has been conducted to collect regional ecotypes of Poa pratensis throughout the southern part of korean peninsula during 2000~2002. 227 local ecotypes of Poa pratensis were collected mostly from roadsides, riversides and rice paddies. The $35^{\circ}$ latitude was supposed to be the southern limit of native Poa pratensis habitat. 130 ecotypes of Poa pratensis found from the poor environmental condition such as roadsides showed Poa pratensis naturally grew throughout the country. When surveyed the habitat environment, it was concluded that native Poa pratensis were mostly found on open fields or half shaded areas, on sandy soil or sandy loam soil, and in the individual patch type.

  • Ten species of Lycoris was selected for establishment of phylogenetic relationships using random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis, the native distribution and flowering characterestics. On the basis of the dendrogram constructed with the similarity coefficients, 10 Lycoris species were divided into two clusters. L. sprengeri and L. incannta were showed very high similarity in the RAPD analysis, same flowering time and flower color as pink. The leaf of L. squamigera. L. sanguinea, L. koreana, L. sprengeri and L. incanata emergenced in spring. The L. squamigera and L. sanguinea were showed high similarity in same cluster. Also L. koreana, L. sprengeri and L. incanata were showed high similarity in same cluster. The flower of L. radiata, L. radiata var pumila, L. albiflora and L. traubii was spider. These species was showed very low similarity in another Lycoris species.

  • Since the demands not only for value-added timber but the environmental functions of forests had been increased, native tree species has been, and is rapidly being replaced by foreign tree species in many parts of the world. However, the studies on population structure and regeneration characteristics of native tree species were not conducted enough. Regeneration of Kalopanax septemlobus growing among other hardwoods in natural forests is very difficult because of its low seed viability and germination rate. The study examined the distribution of mature trees of K. septemlobus and their regeneration pattern at the 1.12 ha study plot in natural deciduous broad-leaved forest of Mt. Jeombong. The density and mean DBH of K. septemlobus was 97 trees per ha and 32 cm, respectively. The spatial distribution of K. septemlobus showed a random pattern (aggregation index is 0.935) in the 1.12 ha study plot. The age of 90 trees among 99 sample trees of K. septemlobus ranged from 90 to 110 years and represented a single cohort, thus suggesting that K. septemlobus in advance regeneration has regenerated as a result of disturbances such as canopy opening.

  • The purpose of this study was to suggest the possibility of utilizing the wildflower pasture for promoting public interest. Growth characteristics, botanical composition, fauna distribution on wildflower pastures were observed. The experimental design included two treatments: native wildflower pasture(NWP, turf grasses 6 species + native wildflower 11 species) and introduced wildflower pasture(lWP, turf grasses 6 species + introduced wildflower 9 species). The field trials were carried out on the experimental pasture plots at Chungnam National University from 1997 to 2000. The results obtained are as follows: 1. The flowering of wildflower was maintained continuously from May to September, and the colors of wildflowers; varied seasonally during this period. With native flowers, however, Hemerocallis fulva, Belamcanda chinenis and Aster koraiensisi showed problems in lately germination and early establishment. Meanwhile, Introduced wildflower showed not only excellent germination and early establishment compared to native flowers species but also maintained brighter colors. But Coreopsis tinctoria, Achillea mi/lefolium and Rudbeckia bicolor had colonized at a higher height or possessed stronger rhizome. 2. The appropriate species of turf grass which maintained continuous seasonal distribution are thought to be tall fescue, perennial ryegrass. Kentucky bluegrass in NWP and IWP. 3. Botanical composition of wild flower in NWP was arranged in the order of Achillea sibirica > Lotus corniculatus var. Japonicus > Dianthus chinensis > Plantago asiatica > Taraxacum pla~ycarpum > Viola mandshurica > Aster koraiensis > Vicia tetasperma > Lespedeza stipulacea > Hemerocallis fulva, respectively. The highest seasonal distribution of native wildflower, Achillea sibirica was in spring and summer, Lotus corniculatus var. Japonicus was in autumn. Botanical composition of wild flower in IWP was arranged in the order of Achillea millefolium Coreopsis tinctoria > Silene armeria > Coreopsis lanceolata > Rudbeckia bicolor > Sanguisorba oficinalis > Centaurea cyanus > Chrysanthemum leucanthemum > Dianthus petraeus, respectively. The highest seasonal distribution of introduced wildflower, Silene armeria was in spring, Achillea millefolium was in summer, and Coreopsis tinctoria was in autumn.
