Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD) assay was used to identify seven typical Lentinula edodes (Berk.) Pegler strains isolated in Korea. Twenty primers from OPA-01 to OPA-20 were applied to generate the recognition of L. edodes strains. Out of 20 primers, nine primers showed efficient RAPD patterns to classify the 7 strains tested, but the rest eleven primers were not useful to be used. Even though there was no single primer that could classify all of the strains, any combination of two primers among the nine primers could identify the strains tested. Thus, RAPD assay turned out to be very precise method for classifying L. edodes strains.

This study was performed to select marker which can identify genetic variation between mother plant and in vitro cultured plantlets of strawberry by PCR using random primer. When 'Yeobong' DNA extracted was treated with proteinase-K and RNase-H, clear DNA bands were shown. The optimal condition for RAPD in strawberry was to use 50ng of template DNA, 10pmol of primer,37oC of annealing temperature, and 45 cycles of PCR. After establishing above PCR optimal condition, RAPD pattern was investigated by using UBC primers. PCR was performed, and 46 of 90 primers produced PCR product showing 158 total bands. GC content was compared between the primers forming bands and no bands. The GC content showing bands was average 67.4%, whereas primers showing no bands 58%.

Previously, we found the operon random primer (OP-5A) that is characteristic the genus Panax by randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis. However, OP-5A primer is limited to apply on the differentiation of only crude herbal plants. To construct more sensitive and unique primers on the genus Panax, ginseng-specific DNA profile (350 bp) that was amplified by OP-5A primer were inserted in a plasmid vector in the TA cloning method and sequenced. We designed the PCR primers (Forward: 5＂-AGGGGTCTTGCTAT AGCGGAAC-3＂, Reverse: 5＂-AGTCTTAATTTCATATTTTCGTATG-3＂) and identified the unique ginseng band (350 bp) in commercial granule products including ginseng extracts as well as crude ginseng plants by nascent PCR.(omitted)

The genetic relationship among 48 Cymbidium cultivars was analyzed using randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) with eighty 10 mers random primers (Operon Technologies) and twelve 20 mers random primers. Forty eight Cymbidium cultivars included 34 oriental Cymbidium, 7 hybrids, and 7 western Cymbidium. 407 (9.9 per primer) and 56 polymorphic bands (9.5 per primer) were generated by polymerase chain reaction with selected thirty 10 mers primers, and nine 20 mers primers, respectively. The polymorphic fragments ranged from 0.4 to 1.5 kb in size. The dendrogram was constructed by using the UPGMA clustering algorithm based on genetic similarity. Forty eight Cymbidium cultivars were classified into four major groups at similarity coefficient value of 0.638.

The genetic variation of random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) patterns of genomic DNAs was investigated in dioecious plant Rumex acetosa L., which carries different sex chromosome complements in female (2n=12A+XX) and male (2n=12A+XY$_1$Y$_2$). One hundred and twenty random primers consisted of 10-mer were used for PCR amplification. Polymorphic bands were found in 24 primers. Specific bands for female and male were 16 and 18, respectively. Especially, a band of 1,440 bp from the OPC-10 primer was male specific. These sex specific RAPD markers are used to understanding the sex determination mechanism in plants.

The results typed by random amplification of polymorphic DNA (RAPD) were compared with those obtained by Enterobacterial repititive intergenic consensus (ERIC) fingerprinting and ribotyping-PCR. The discriminatory power of RAPD typing was the best among the methods tested. RAPD typing with two different primers for 13 Listeria spp. reference strains produced 11 patterns each. In contrast, ERIC fingerprinting produced 9 patterns and ribotyping-PCR produced 7 patterns each. Composite of two separate RAPD (Lis 11 and primer 6) results or RAPD (Lis11)/ ribotyping-PCR differentiated all 13 Listeria spp. reference strains. Therefore, composite of 2 separate RAPD (Lis11 and primer 6) or composite of RAPD (Lis11)/ribotyping-PCR is expected the most promising approach for typing field isolated Listeria spp. strains.

This experiment was carried out to evaluate the effect of sublethal doses of BPMC, etofenprox, and buprofezin on N. lugens. and its predator C. lividipennis. Buprofezin was found to be the most toxic to N. lugens and the most safe to C. lividipennis among the three insecticides, based on LD50 values. Selective toxicity index calculated by dividing LDSo value of C. lividipennis by that of N. lugens indicated that buprofezin was very safe to C. lividipennis, showing selective toxicity of 2703.3. Longevity and fecundity of N. lugens treated with LDIU and LDm of buprofezin and BPMC were not significantly different with those of untreated brown planthoppers. However, egg hatchability' of N. lugens was greatly reduced when treated with LDm of buprofezin, having the highest inhibition rate of 17.7%. Hatchability of eggs from insects treated with BPMC was similar to that of control. The oviposited peak of treated hoppers appeared late as compared to the untreated which showed the peak at early part of the ovipositional period. The longevity and fecundity of C. lividipennis treated with BPMC were significantly reduced as compared with the untreated. Etofenprox also induced fecundity reduction when treated with LDlo, and LDm. However, C. lividipennis treated with sublethal doses of buprofezin showed no redution in logevity and fecundity. From these results, it may be said that buprofezin can be used to control brown planthopper without disrupting of C. lividipennis population in the rice field.

Echinochloa species maintained by selling for more than 10 years were classified using random amplified polymorphic DNAs(RAPDs) analysis. Seventy-four decamer of randomly sequence markers were used to classify intraspecific variation irt Echinochloa species. The number of amplification products increased with increasing GC content of the primer in the range between 60% and 70% GC. Single-base substitutions of a primer altered amplification, providing new polymorphisms. The size of amplified DNA was mostly between 0.40kbp and 1.4kbp with the most common bands at 1.1kbp. Echinochloa species were detected with 6 primers which generated 26 polymorphic amplified DNAs. By hierarchical cluster analysis, Echinochloa species collected in Korea were divided into three groups. These results revealed that RAPD markers are useful tools for the determination of genetic variations in Echinochloa species.

This study was conducted to analyze genetic characteristics and to develop the specific marker for Cheju native horse (Coo) at the level of sequence characterized amplified regions (SCARs). We collected blood samples from Cheju native horse and Thoroughbred horse (Th) and obtained genomic DNA from the blood of 50 individuals randomly selected within the breeds. Seven hundred primers were chosen randomly and were used to examin the polymorphism and 40 kinds of primers showed polymorphic RAPD band patterns between two breeds. Thirty primers of them showed horse specific bands. With the primer MG 30, amplified band of 2.0 kb showed the specificity to Cheju native horse (Cnh). Additionally MG 53 detected the thoroughbred horse (Th) specific markers at size of 2.3 kb. As the next, 2.3 kb band from MG 53 was checked with the all individuals from all the breeds of this study, and it maintained the reproducible breed specificity to thoroughbred horse (Th). With this results, 2.3 kb band was cloned into plasmid vector and sequenced bidirectionally from both ends of the cloned fragment. With the obtained sequences 10 nucleotide extended primers including the original arbitray primer were designed as a SCARs primer. Finally, the primer with extended sequence showed the reproducible breed differentiation pattern and it was possible to identify Cheju native horse (Cnh) from other breeds. The SCARs marker 2.3 kb from MG 53 could be used to identify Cheju native horse (Cnh) for not only registration but also horse breeding programe.
