Comprative osteology of the chum salmon Oncorhynchus keta, masu salmon O. masou and rainbow trout O. mykiss in Korea was studied. As a result, it was found that there were some differences in the structural features of the cranium and visceral skeleton among the species. Interspecific differencies in glossohyal, supraethmoid, parasphenoid and vomer were distinctive for the species. Chum salmon could be distinguished easily by some characters on form of glossohyal which is thin, long and sharp in shape. It has triangle shape supraethmoid while other two species have oval shape one. The shape of parasphenoid, preopercle, hyomandibular and the number of epurals were evaluated as new taxonomic criteria for the salmons.

This experiment was conducted to characterize the inheritance of petal color, flower-eye color, flower shape, leaf variegation pattern, and leaf-end shape in Cyclamen persicum. The segregation of $F_2$ and backcross populations from crosses between inbred lines was tested for Mendelian inheritance mode. From four different combinations of crosses, it was found that the petal color was controlled by a single incomplete dominant gene. The other characters, flower-eye color, flower shape, leaf variegation pattern and leaf-end shape were confirmed to be controlled by single complete dominant genes.

In this paper, we propose an efficient two-step pattern matching method which promises shape distortion-tolerant recognition of handwritten of handwritten Hangul syllables. In the first step, nonlinear shape normalization is carried out to compensate for global shape distortions in handwritten characters, then a preliminary classification based on simple pattern matching is performed. In the next step, nonlinear pattern matching which achieves best matching between input and reference pattern is carried out to compensate for local shape distortions, then detailed classification which determines the final result of classification is performed. As the performance of recognition systems based on pattern matching methods is greatly effected by the quality of reference patterns. we construct reference patterns by combining the proposed nonlinear pattern matching method with a well-known averaging techniques. Experimental results reveal that recognition performance is greatly improved by the proposed two-step pattern matching method and the reference pattern construction scheme.

Due to the wide and effective use of sucker controlling chemicals, gentic studies on the suckering habits of tobacco plants have long been neglected. So, to investigate the genetic basis of suckering, crosses between "Little Dutch" and "Cuban" were made, and subsequent generations, $F_1F_2,\;BC_1,\;BC_2,$ and parents were grown on the field. Several morphological characters were measured and the relation among them were analyzed. Correlation coefficients between leaf shape and sucker leaf shape, and the number of suckers and sucker weight were 0.25 and 0.42, both sighificant at 1 % level. But negative correlation between number of suckers per plant and that of leaves was observed, though statistically not significant. Dominance was observed in the number of suckers and amount of suckers produced, and the heritability of sucker shape was calculated as high as 0.88. And two paris of genes seemed to be involved in the inheritance of sucker shape, and narrow leaf appeared as dominant in the $F_1$.inant in the $F_1$.

Nemoura phasianusa n. sp. is similar to Nemoura jezoensis in general morphology especially lateral view, but can be distinguished by the combination of the characters of the epiproctal shape whose apex is depressed medially, and sclerites of epiproct, which look like question marks without dots.

This paper presents an effective shape image recognition method using the correlation based on 4-dimensional histogram. The histogram-based correlation is accurately applied to express the similarity by comparing the positions of a corresponding dimension between the images, which is calculated by considering 4 directions of the shape image. The correlation measure by using the normalized cross-correlation is also applied to obtain the robust recognition to the geometrical variations such as shape, position, size, and rotation. The proposed method has been applied to the problem for recognizing the 8 shape images of 64*64 pixels and the 30 shape images of 256*256 pixels. The experimental results show that the proposed method has a superior recognition performance that appears the image characters well.

In the machining process of micros shape by using high-precision machining system and micro end-mill, it is important for machining characters of tools to be grasped in order to stably use tools of micro end-mill. In this study. we carried out an analytical experiment of basic machining features by using end-mill tools for the purpose of damage prevention and manufacture of high quality when the tools of micro end-mill are used. This experiment used a micro machining system with high precision and a variety of end-mill tools commercialized from tens to hundreds microns in diameter. To establish an optimal machining condition without tool damage, cutting force was analyzed according to the changes of tool diameter and cutting conditions such as cutting speed. feed rate, depth of cut. And an examination was performed for the shape and surface illumination of machining surface according to the changes of machining conditions. Based on these micro machining conditions, micro square pillar, cylinder shaft. thin wall with high aspect ratio, and micro 3-D structures such as micro gear and fan were manufactured.

Members of the genus Asarum of Korea were reviewed taxonomically, and classified into seven species. Among them, four species - A. koreanum, A. maculatum, A. patens and A. versicolor - were recorded as Korean endemics. The most valuable taxonomic characters in identifying the Asarum taxa were shape, size and color of the calyx tube and lobe. In addition, the presence of white spots on the adaxial surface, size and color of leaf, presence of trichome, shape and size of the stylar protuberance and thickness of the calyx lobe were also important characters. Keys to the species including descriptions and figures of floral structures of each taxon were provided here for the accurate identification of each species.

Member of the genus Tobrilus Andrássy, 1959, which belongs to Tobrilidae Filipjev, 1918, are known as free-living nematodes in freshwater habitat. This genus was previously unknown from Korea. Five Tobrilus species are here reported for the first time from Korea: Tobrilus aberrans (Schneider, 1925), Tobrilus diversipapillatus (Daday, 1905), Tobrilus gracilis (Bastian, 1865), Tobrilus longus (Leidy, 1851), and Tobrilus wesenbergi (Micoletzky, 1925). Specimens were collected from sediments of the Nakdong River in Korea. Morphological characters and measurements of the specimens generally agree with the original descriptions of Tobrilus species, except for some differences that can be attributed to intraspecific variation among populations(e.g., nerve ring position [% pharynx] and reproductive length). Each species can be distinguished from other members of the genus by specific characters (e.g., cephalic setae length and position, buccal cavity and pocket shape, vulva position, degree of development of reproductive system, and tail length and shape). Here, five species in the genus Tobrilus are fully redescribed and illustrated using optical microscopy images. DNA barcode sequence information (the D2-D3 region of 28S rDNA) is also provided for molecular species identification.

Fifty-five sweet pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) germplasm from the Rural Development Administration (RDA) were analyzed for their fruit yield and fruit quality characters, including fruit weight, fruit size, pericarp thickness, total soluble content, fruit lobe, fruit shape, fruit surface and fruit color. Fruit yield per plot ranged from 200 g to 8150 g (average, 1884 g). Fruit fresh-weight per fruit ranged from 27.3 g to 200.0 g with an average of 97.2 g. Fruit length varied from 4.0 cm to 16.2 cm (average, 9.6 cm). Fruit length-to-width ratio ranged from 0.6 to 3.0 with an average 1.7. The fruit pericarp thickness ranged from 1.8 mm to 10.7 mm (average, 4.8 mm). Total soluble content was the highest ($8.5^{\circ}Brix$) in K156286 and the lowest ($5.3^{\circ}Brix$) in K156208 with the average value $6.7^{\circ}Brix$. Fruit lobes numbers varied from 2 to 4. Blocky, triangular, elongated, rectangular and round fruit shape identified among the sweet pepper accessions. Fruit surface varied from smooth to wrinkle and fruit color also varied. The presence of variability in fruit yield and quality traits within the sweet pepper genotypes can be utilized to develop high yielding sweet pepper variety with better fruit quality characters.
