dsRNA was found in malformed cultures of Lentinula edodes strain FMRI0339, one of the three most popular sawdust cultivated commercial strains of shiitake, and was also found in healthy-looking fruiting bodies and actively growing mycelia. Cloning of the partial genome of the dsRNA revealed the presence of the RdRp sequence of a novel L. edodes mycovirus (LeV), and sequence comparison of the cloned amplicon showed identical sequences sequence to known RNA-dependent RNA polymerase genes of LeV found in strain HKA. The meiotic stability of dsRNA was examined by measuring the ratio of the presence of dsRNA among sexual monokaryotic progeny. More than 40% of the monokaryotic progeny still contained the dsRNA, indicating the persistence of dsRNA during sexual reproduction. Comparing the mycelia growth of monokaryotic progeny suggested that there appeared to be a tendency toward a lower frequency of virus incidence in actively growing progeny.

Testicles of nine-week-old male CBA/J mice were X-ray irradiated (1 Gy or 2 Gy) and were mated one week later with untreated virgin 12-week-old females of the same strain. The 1-Gy offspring (88 males and 62 females), 2-Gy offspring (100 males and 93 females) and additional offs pring (83 males and 84 females) were treated once subcutaneously with 0.1 mg/g body weight of urethane at 6 weeks of age. These three groups of off offspring showed similar incidences of lung tumors in both sexes. Depending on the doses of paternal X-ray irradiation, increasing incidences of adenocarcinoma were observed in the male 1-Gy and 2-Gy offspring groups. An increased multiplicity of lung carcinomas was observed in the male 2-Gy progeny that was statistically significant when compared with the control group. The results indicate that prezygotic testicular X-ray exposure of patemal animals causes the shift of adenoma-carcinoma sequence towards malignancy in the progeny.

To promote the selection of promising monokaryotic strains of button mushroom (Agaricus bisporus) during breeding, 61 progeny strains derived from basidiospores of two different lines of dikaryotic parental strains, ASI1038 and ASI1346, were analyzed by nucleotide sequencing of the intergenic spacer I (IGS I) region in their rDNA and by extracellular enzyme assays. Nineteen different sizes of IGS I, which ranged from 1,301 to 1,348 bp, were present among twenty ASI1346-derived progeny strains, while 15 different sizes of IGS I, which ranged from 700 to 1,347 bp, were present among twenty ASI1038-derived progeny strains. Phylogenetic analysis of the IGS sequences revealed that different clades were present in both the ASI10388- and ASI1346-derived progeny strains. Plating assays of seven kinds of extracellular enzymes (${\beta}$-glucosidase, avicelase, CM-cellulase, amylase, pectinase, xylanase, and protease) also revealed apparent variation in the ability to produce extracellular enzymes among the 40 tested progeny strains from both parental A. bisporus strains. Overall, this study demonstrates that characterization of IGS I regions and extracellular enzymes is useful for the assessment of the substrate-degrading ability and heterogenicity of A. bisporus monokaryotic strains.

Hantaviruses possess three RNA segments of negative sense. Co-infection of closely related hantaviruses may result in generation of a progeny virus with genomic polyploidy, containing a partial or complete set of genome originated from more than one parental virus. To characterize the formation of viral genomic polyploidy, cultured Vero-E6 cells were co-infected with two closely related hantaviruses, Hantaan and Maaji, and the progeny viruses examined. The genotype of plaque-purified viruses was analyzed by a virus-specific RT-PCR. Seventy percent (67/96) of the progeny virus was categorized as Hantaan and 3.3% (2/96) was classified as Maaji, whereas 20% (21/96) was considered polyploidy as they contained both types of the S RNA segment. Most of the polyploidy progeny viruses were unstable and gave rise to either one of the parental viruses or a reassortant after several rounds of plaque purification. No recombination between the heterologous pair of S RNA was observed for those polyploid viruses during three consecutive plaque-to-plaque passages. These data suggest that the viral polyploidy formation constitutes a primary mechanism underlying the generation of a newly emerged hantavirus.

This work was carried out to get some informations about blood types and their researches, involved blood stock and genetic identification. Horses examined were total 55 heads of sire, mare and their progeny in Korean Horse Affairs Association. 1. Albumin phenotypes of 26 mare were examined. The appearance of phenotype AA, BB, AB, was 1, 18, 7 respectively. The gene frequency of albumin A was 0.17 and albumin B was 0.76. 2. The appearance of phenotype AA, BB, AB in 29 progeny was 1, 16, 12 respectively. The gene frequency of albumin A was 0.24 and albumin B was 0.76. The gene frequency of gene A was higher than their parents. 3. Identification of the relationship between parents and their progeny was also examined. 4 of type AB between AA & BB, 4 of type BB between BB & BB, 13 of type AB between BB & AB were borned. In third case, all of progeny was type AB. This results suggest positive relationship between them.

This study was conducted to investigate how to enhance resistance to oxidative stress in petunia progeny obtained by a crossing between transgenic plants, MnSOD (SOD2) ($T_4$) and NDPK2 ($T_2$), to develop transgenic petunia much more resistant to environmental stress. At the treatment of MV 200 ${\mu}M$, the progeny was significantly less damaged than its parental plants (SOD2- or NDPK2-transgenic lines) as well as wild type plants, implying its resistance to oxidative stress was enhanced compare to that of SOD2- or NDPK2- transgenic plants. In an expression of 11 quantitative traits, the progeny remained similar to control plants, although it infrequently displayed slightly longer or wider than either parental or wild type plants. In the expression of 6 qualitative traits, there was no significant difference between parental or non-transgenic control plants.

To select agronomically useful transgenic plants, a large number of transgenic events are initially produced, gene transfer confirmed, and advanced to obtain homozygous lines for testing in field trials. Direct in planta assays for identifying the transgene carriers in the segregating progeny are based on the activity of selectable marker gene and are easy, simple and inexpensive. For this purpose, expression of bar gene as measured by tolerance to damage by glufosinate ammonium, the active ingredient in the herbicide BASTA, was investigated. Dose damage curves were generated by leaf paint tests with BASTA on four genotypes of sorghum. Transgenic plants were characterized in terms of sensitivity to the concentration of glufosinate ammonium. In transgenics, symptoms of BASTA swab tests at different growth stages and PCR analysis for cry1B were carried out and correlated. Germination tests could not be employed for large scale evaluation of transgenic progeny because of mortality of tolerant seedlings after transplantation to soil. Based on the above findings, a simple, inexpensive, time-saving, two-step scheme for effective evaluation of transgenics and their progeny containing bar gene as selection marker using BASTA swab tests is described.

Sex of the Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus is mainly determined by an XX/XY system. However, accumulating evidences suggest the existence of additional sex modifying factors including environmental, autosomal and parental influences. In order to investigate the possibility of parental effects on sex ratios of tilapia progenies, in this study, a series of crosses was carried out using gynogenetic clonal fish, neomales, normal males and females, and YY fish. Crosses between clonal XX male and clonal female have yielded only female progenies and no parental influences were observed. However, in the crosses between clonal males and normal females, female parents were significantly associated with the progeny sex ratios ($X^2$=20.046, 7 d.f., p<0.01). Progeny sex ratios from the crosses between neomales and normal females ($X^2$=60.491, 5 d.f and $X^2$=28.072, 2 d.f.) also showed significant association with female parents (P<0.001). The stability of progeny sex ratios from repeated spawns were confirmed by using 6 different parental pairs. In 16 crosses between normal males and normal females, sex ratios of progenies showed clear maternal influences, and further analysis of the results revealed a negative correlation ($r^2$=0.7718, p<0.05) between the sex ratios of progenies from two different males, indicating a strong paternal influence. No statistically significant relationship between survival rates and sex ratios of progenies was observed in any genotypic groups. Taken together, the influence of parental pairs on progeny sex ratios in this species is evident although the cause of this influence is not clear.
