Scolelepis (Scolelepis) daphoinos is newly reported in Korean fauna. This species can be distinguished from its congeners by the following characteristics: the presence of reddish pigment patches on the posterior part of the prostomium, notopodial postchaetal lamellae that are partially fused to the branchiae, and the presence of only the bidentate hooded hooks. The morphological diagnosis and photographs of S. (S.) daphoinos are provided. The partial mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI), 16S ribosomal DNA(16S rDNA), and the nuclear 18S ribosomal DNA (18S rDNA) sequences from Korean specimens of S. (S.) daphoinos were determined. Species identification was supported by a comparison of DNA barcode sequences of COI and 16S rDNA with morphological examination from the specimens of type locality, China.

Bleomycin에 의해 유발된 DNA 회복합성은 저농도 처리군에서는 농도의 증가에 따라 증가하며 $5\\mu$g/ml 군에서 조사한 전세포의 15%가 회복합성을 하여 최고율을 보인다. 고농도 처리군에서 DNA 회복합성율이 감소하며 처리 시간을 연장해도 그율은 변화가 없다. BUdR이나 IUdR을 전처리한군에서는 DNA회복합성을 증가시키는 것으로 판명됐으며 또한 고동도 처리군에서는 정상적인 DNA 합성을 억제한다. 시간 변화에 따른 실험에서는 처리한 bleomycin을 제거한후 24시간까지 DNA 회복합성이 계속됐다. 이들 결과는 bleomycin이 excision repair를 유발하는 효과적인 화학물질이 아니며, bleomycin에 의해 유발되는 DNA의 손상은 DNA 나선 절단뿐만 아니라 다른 형태의 DNA 손상도 유발함을 추측할수 있다.

Wild relative species of domesticated crops are useful genetic resources for improving agronomic traits. Cytogenetic investigations based on chromosome composition provide insight into basic genetic and genomic characteristics of a species that can be exploited in a breeding program. Here, we used FISH analysis to characterize the ploidy level, chromosome constitution, and genomic distribution o f 5S and 4 5S r ibosomal DNA (rDNA) in four wild Cucurbitaceae species, namely, Citrullus lanatus (Thunb.) Mansf. var. citroides L. H. Bailey (2n = 22), Melothria japonica Maxim. (2n = 22), Sicyos angulatus L. (2n = 24), and Trichosanthes kirilowii Maxim. (2n = 66, 88, 110 cytotypes), collected in different areas of Korea. All species were diploids, except for T. kirilowii, which included hexa-, octa-, and decaploid cytotypes (2n = 6x = 66, 8x = 88, and 10x = 110). All species have small metaphase chromosomes in the range of $2-5{\mu}m$. The 45S rDNA signals were localized distally compared to the 5S rDNA. C. lanatus var. citroides and M. japonica showed one and two loci of 45S and 5S rDNA, respectively, with co-localization of rDNA signals in one M. japonica chromosome. S. angulatus showed two co-localized signals of 5S and 45S rDNA loci. The hexaploid T. kirilowii cytotype showed five signals each for 45S and 5S rDNA, with three being co-localized. This is the first report of hexaploid and decaploid cytotypes in T. kirilowii. These results will be useful in future Cucurbitaceae breeding programs.

We attempted to identify parasite DNA in the biliary stones of humans via PCR and DNA sequencing. Genomic DNA was isolated from each of 15 common bile duct (CBD) stones and 5 gallbladder (GB) stones. The patients who had the CBD stones suffered from cholangitis, and the patients with GB stones showed acute cholecystitis, respectively. The 28S and 18S rDNA genes were amplified successfully from 3 and/or 1 common bile duct stone samples, and then cloned and sequenced. The 28S and 18S rDNA sequences were highly conserved among isolates. Identity of the obtained 28S D1 rDNA with that of Clonorchis sinensis was higher than 97.6%, and identity of the 18S rDNA with that of other Ascarididae was 97.9%. Almost no intra-specific variations were detected in the 28S and 18S rDNA with the exception of a few nucleotide variations, i.e., substitution and deletion. These findings suggest that C. sinensis and Ascaris lumbricoides may be related with the biliary stoneformation and development.

식중독은 세균에 의한 발병이 대부분이다. 따라서 식품에서 식중독 원인균을 신속하게 탐색하게 식중독으로부터의 되면 피해를 줄일 수 있을 것이다. 고전적인 식중독 원인균 탐색은 증균, 선택적 배지를 이용한 isolation, 생화학적 특징을 활용하는 분석이 있으나 많은 시간이 소요되는 단점을 갖고 있었다. 본 연구는 16S rRNA gene(16S rDNA)로부터 얻은 DNA 염기 서열을 이용 식중독 원인균의 특이적 oligonucleotide probe을 제작 reverse dot blot hybridization과 PCR 방법을 이용하여 고전적인 방법보다 빠른 시간 내에 식품에서 원인균을 탐색 할 수 있었다. 우유를 인공적으로 본 연구에서 사용한 균주로 오염시킨 후 DNA를 추출하여 PCR 증폭산물과 oligonucleotide probe를 hybridization 시킨 결과 oligonucleotide probe를 hybridization 시킨 결과 oligonucleotide probe가 위치한 곳에서 발색 반응이 나타났다. 본 연구에서 본 연구를 통해 DNA microchip으로 활용 짧은 시간 내에 많은 종류의 식중독 원인균을 탐색 할 수 있는 가능성을 확인하였다.

DNA-based discrimination of species is a powerful way for morphologically otherwise similar species, like centric diatoms. Here, the author sequenced long-range nuclear ribosomal DNAs, spanning from the 18S to the D5 region of the 28S rDNA, of Stephanodiscus, particularly including a Korean isolate. By comparisons, high DNA similarities were detected from the rDNAs of nine Stephanodiscus (>99.4% in 18S rDNA, >98.0% in 28S rDNA). Their genetic distances, however, were significantly different (Kruskal-Wallis test, p < 0.01) compared to two related genera, namely Cyclotella and Discostella. In addition, genetic distances of 18S rDNAs were significantly different (Student’s t-test, p = 0.000) against those of the 28S rDNAs according to individual genera (Cyclotella, Discostella, and Stephanodiscus). Phylogenetic analyses showed that Stephanodiscus and Discostella showed a sister taxon relationship, and their clade was separated from a cluster of Cyclotella (1.00 PP, 100% BP). This suggests that Stephanodiscus has highly conserved sequences of both 18S and 28S rDNA; however, Stephanodiscus is well-separated from other freshwater centric diatoms, such as Cyclotella and Discostella, at the generic level.

DNA-based molecular markers for differentiation of five penaeid shrimps (Penaeus monodon, P. semisulcatus, Feneropenaeus merguiensis, Litopenaeus vannamei and Marsupenaeus japonicus) were developed based on polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) and single-stranded conformation polymorphism (SSCP) of 16S ribosomal (r) DNA. Differentiation of P. monodon, P. semisulcatus and L. vannamei can be unambiguously carried out by PCR-RFLP of 16S $rDNA_{560}$ whereas P. semisulcatus and M. japonicus shared a BABB mitotype. These shrimps were successfully discriminated by SSCP analysis of 16S $rDNA_{560}$. Nevertheless, the amplification success for L. vannamei and F. merguiensis was not consistent when tested against larger sample sizes. As a result, 16S $rDNA_{560}$ of an individual representing the most common mitotype of each species was cloned and sequenced. The new primer pair was designed and tested against the large sample sizes (312 bp product, N = 185). The amplification success was consistent across all species. PCR-RFLP of 16S $rDNA_{312}$ was as effective as that of 16S $rDNA_{560}$. Differentiation of all shrimp species were successfully carried out by SSCP analysis.

In this study, Prionospio depauperata Imajima, 1990 is newly reported in Korean fauna. Prionospio depauperata can be distinguished from other relatives by the four pairs of branchiae which are pinnate on chaetigers 2 and 5, and apinnate on chaetigers 3 and 4; caruncle extending to the end of chaetiger 2; and moderate dorsal crest present on chaetigers 7-13. The morphological diagnosis of P. depauperata are provided with the photographs of four Prionospio species. The mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (CO1), 16S ribosomal DNA (16S rDNA), and the nuclear 18S ribosomal DNA (18S rDNA) sequences of four Prionospio species from Korean waters, P. depauperata Imajima, 1990, P. japonica Okuda, 1935, P. krusadensis Fauvel, 1929, and P. membranacea Imajima, 1990, were determined for the first time. The inter-specific genetic distances among the congeners of four Prionospio species were 22.3-29.6% in CO1, 10.5-25.0% in 16S rDNA, and 0.3-3.6% in 18S rDNA.

미나리아재비속(Ranunculus)의 털개구리미나리(R. cantonienesis)의 분자계통학적 유연관계를 조사하고 잡종화 가설을 추정하기 위하여, 군외군을 포함한 8분류군의 25개 DNA재료를 대상으로 핵 DNA와 엽록체 DNA의 염기서열을 분석하였다. 털개구리미나리와 근연종에 대하여 maximum parsimony와 maximum likelihood방법으로 분석한 핵 DNA의 ITS 계통수와 psbA-trnH, rps16, trnL 유전자 구간의 염기서열을 조합한 엽록체 DNA 계통수에서, 털개구리미나리는 젓가락나물과 가장 가깝고, 개구리미나리, 왜젓가락나물 순으로 유연관계를 나타내었다. 이러한 분자계통학적 유연관계는 털개구리미나리가 왜젓가락나물과 가장 가깝다는 기존의 외부형태학적 보고와 일치하지 않았다. 염기서열 분석에서 털개구리미나라는 조사된 분류군 중 유일하게 다형성을 나타냄으로서, 염색체수와 핵형에 의하여 보고된 털개구리미나라의 다형성을 지지하였다. 털개구리미나리는 ITS 에서 젓가락나물과 왜젓가락나물의 표지 유전자를 공유하고, 엽록체 DNA에서 왜젓가락나물의 표지 유전자를 공유하였다. 이 결과는 염색체수와 핵형에 의하여 제시되었던 털개구리미나리가 젓가락나물과 왜젓가락나물의 잡종화에 의하여 종분화되었다는 가설을 지지하였으며, 왜젓가락나물이 모계이며, 젓가락나물이 부계로 추정된다.
