The random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) technique was used to anlayze six isolates of two species of Porphyra, P. yezoensis and P. tenera. Four 21-mer prrmers were combined randomly into six groups of double primers and screened for DNA amplification using nuclear and chloroplast tempate DNA. The RAPD patterns resulting from RnRc and CnCc primers provided evidence for both genetically homo-and heterogeneous populations of P. yezoensis and P. tenera. Similarity values obtained by RnRc primer analysis of nuclear DNA varied from 0.364 to 0.714 and those of chloroplast DNA were high, ranging from 0.727 to 1.000, except for P. yezoensis (Enoura).

Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis was done with 19 oligonucleotide primers to study genetic similarities and divergence among different types of Deoni breed of cattle viz., Balankya, Wannera and Waghya. Six random primers produced low to high numbers of polymorphic bands between pooled DNA of different Deoni types. Of the 48 RAPD markers obtained 33 were common to all Deoni types, 3 were individual specific and 12 were polymorphic for different Deoni types. The mean average percentage difference values among Deoni types showed that Balankya and Wannera had less genetic divergence when compared to Waghya.

The random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) technique was used to characterize 18 reference strains of microalgae, mostly Chlorella species, collected from various localities around Korea peninsular. Eighteen strains consist of four genera of the family marine Chlorella from 12 samples, two genera of fresh water Chlorella from three samples, and three genera on Nannochloris. Twenty 10-mer anonymous primers were screened for amplification of genomic DNA extracted from samples using the CTAB extraction method. Nineteen of these oligonucleotide primers were positive or band producing. Three of 20 random primers (OPA 10, OPA 12, and OPA 18) resulted in both clear band and a high degree of reproducibility and showed some potential to be used to discriminate individual samples of both genetically hetero-and homogeneous populations, in determining phylogenetic relationships between species within a genus and developing individual fingerprints for each samples.

RAPD analysis based on numerous markers have been used to investigate patterns of genetic differentiation ann and within two cultured and wild populations represented by the species crucian carp(Carassius carassius). From RAPD analysis using five primers, a total of 442 polymorphic bands were obtained in two populations and 273 were found to be specific to a wild population. According to RAPD-based estimates, average number of polymorphic bands in wild population was approximately 1.5 times as diverse as that in cultured. The average level of bandsharing values was $0.40 \pm 0.05$ in wild population, but was $0.69 \pm 0.08$ in cultured population, With reference to bandsharing values and banding patterns, wild population was considerably more diverse than cultured population. Knowledge of the genetic diversity of crucian carp should help in formulating more effective strategies for managing this aquacultural fish species.

Terahertz time domain spectroscopy (THz-TDS) is applied in transmission to identify the five forms of modifications of furosemide and one commercial product from 0.3 THz to 1.6 THz at room temperature. The different absorption spectra of the different forms are sensitive to crystal structures. Density function theory (DFT) calculation was used to understand the vibrational modes of furosemide in the THz region. X-ray powder diffractometry (XRPD) was applied to confirm the different forms of modifications. The results demonstrate that THz-TDS is a potential analytical technique in investigating polymorphic forms in the pharmaceutical fields.

Genetic diversity of 45 tea accessions from Korea, Japan, China and Taiwan was investigated by using RAPD analysis. Out of the eighty primers screened, twenty primers generated 99 polymorphic bands with a polymorphic rate 87.0%. The size of the amplified fragments ranged from about 3,138 bp to 520 bp. By cluster analysis, all of the 45 accessions can be grouped into five groups. Over 90% of the 32 Korean accessions belonged to group II, III, IV and V. Moreover, newly developed Korean cultivars (accession no. 13, 14 and 15) belonged to very different group compared with any other Korean accessions. Among the Korean accessions, the minimum genetic similarity 0.500 was obtained between accession no. 17 and 37 and the largest genetic similarity 0.912 between no. 20 and 21.

To investigate the molecular biological marker in insect cells, BmN-4 and Sf-0 cells were analysed by SDS-PAGE and random amplification of polymorphic DNA. The results showed that the patterns of total cell protein and random amplification of polymorphic DNA were distinguished between BmN-4 and Sf-9 cells, suggesting that the unique major bands were useful as molecular biological marker in BmN-4 and Sf-9 cells.

Out of 20 primers, 6 generated 1349 highly reproducible RAPD markers, producing approximately 5.2 polymorphic bands per primer in catfish(Sizurus asotus) population from Kunsan. The electrophoretic analysis of polymerase chain reaction-random amplified polymorphic DNAs (PCR-RAPD) products showed the middle levels of similarity between different individuals in population from Kunsan. That is to say, the degree of similarity varied from 0.40 to 0.54, with the average of 0.46, as calculated by bandsharing analysis. (omitted)

RAPD analyses using 60 OPERON primers and 13 URPs were performed in order to assess the genetic variation and frequency of polymorphisms in Korean salmonids. RAPDS were very reproducible and most useful at the sub-species level. In RAPD analysis, 138 polymorphic bands were detected between Oncorhynchus masou subspecies and 99 bands were generated in two types of rainbow trout. Estimated genetic distances between O. masou subspecies were 0.28794, and between wild rainbow trout and an albino mutant was 0.22786. Each species of salmonid was well characterized using URP 4R, the obtained bands could be useful as a species specific RAPD markers.

Nuclear DNA was isolated from the sperm cells representing genetic characteristics and genomic polymorphisms of rainbow trout by polymerase chain reaction(PCR) amplification of DNA using arbitrary primers. Genomic DNA fingerprints were generated from rainbow trout sperm DNA by polymerase chain reaction amplification using 20 arbitrary decamers as primers. Out of these primers, 4 generated 17 highly reproducible RAPD markers, producing almost six polymorphic bands per primers. Four of 6 primers tested generated amplified fragments which were polymorphic between different individuals. Polymorphic DNA fragments were reproducibly amplified from independent DNA preparations made from individuals. Rainbow trout was distinctly observed 3 specific DNA markers (2. 3, 2.0 and 1.3kb) in bandsharing. Individual fragments generated using the same arbitrary primer, demonstrated that a single primer detected at least three independent genomic polymorphisms in rainbow trout sperm DNA. The RAPD polymorphism generated by this primer may be used as a genetic marker for individual identification The RAPD-PCR technique has been shown to reveal informative polymorphism in many species of fish. The present results demonstrate that RAPD markers are abundant, reproducible and provide a basis for future gene mapping and MAS in these important aquaculture species using RAPD polymorphic markers. It is concluded that RAPD polymorphisms are useful as genetic markers for fish breed differentiation.
