According to UPOV (International Union for Protection of New Varieties of Plants), mushroom spawn market have to be opened by the year 2009. Number of commercial strains distributed by the year 2005 were 179 of 24 species of edible and medicinal mushrooms. Only nine strains of oyster mushrooms were registered as protected variety, which is not compatible with those recorded in other advanced countries. Meaning of spawn in broad sense contains commercial strains. Development of commercial strains faces two main problems in Korea : One is the complicated genetic patterns and sexuality of mushroom species, and the other is expensive experimental equipments and fruiting body growing houses. Resolution of these problems leads to development of mushroom strains. This could be achieved as follows; genetic resources collection and assessment, molecular characterization of useful genetic characters, development of new commercial strains by hybridization using typical genetic resources, strengthening of breeding research using "Mushroom Breeding Group", management of spawn research company by consortium, foundation of mushroom general industry, promotion of consumption, and upgrade of competition ability for other countries. These points are under discussion.

The physicochemical characteristics of oyster mushrooms (Pleurotus ostreatus) cultivated using liquid spawn (MLS) were compared with those of commercial mushrooms cultivated using solid spawn. The color intensity of the two types of mushrooms showed no remarkable difference. The hardness of the MLS-cultivated mushrooms was significantly higher, but their moisture content (86.80%) was significantly lower than that of the commercial mushrooms. Mineral contents in MLS-cultivated mushrooms (421.17 mg/100 g) were significantly higher than those in the commercial mushrooms (333.26-362.78 mg/100 g); in particular, the potassium (K) content was the most abundant in the former. The amino acid content in the MLS-cultivated mushrooms (4,695.22 mg/100 g) was about 1.4-2.0 times that in the commercial mushrooms. The essential amino acid contents and sum of aspartic acid and glutamic acid were higher in the MLS-cultivated mushrooms than in the commercial mushrooms. The ${\beta}-glucan$ content in the MLS-cultivated mushrooms was 1.1-2.3 times higher than that in the commercial mushrooms. The total phenol and flavonoid contents and the DPPH and ABTS radical-scavenging activities of the MLS-cultivated mushrooms were significantly higher than those of the commercial mushrooms; however, the reducing power showed an opposite trend. Therefore, MLS-cultivated mushrooms contained higher amounts of valuable components and higher antioxidant activities than commercial mushrooms.

This study is aimed to prepare the promotion strategy to spawn snow crab resources and create their habitats using SWOT-AHP analysis. Currently, the creation program of spawning and habitat ground (CPSH) of various fisheries resource is a continuing process, however, none of these CPSH can be labeled as being effective in Korea. In order for CPSH to be effective, it must be planned systematically. Therefore, it is necessary for establishing promotion strategy on the CPSH. SWOT-AHP analysis is used to improve explanation ability of SWOT analysis. In this research, we suggested three strategies and 15 implementation plans of the CPSH using SWOT-AHP analysis. It is expected that the economic feasibility, ecosystem and recovery of fisheries resources will improve significantly. Consequently, to increase the performance of CPSH, it is necessary to focus on the developing an efficient and executive promotion strategy on the CPSH.

Poria cocos is an importantant medical macrofungus,the sclerotium of Poria cocos has specific value as the drug material. There are few papers about its breeding and spawn rejuvenation. In this project, the protoplasts of cultivated strain T and wild strain L were prepared and treated separately by ultraviolet and heating, then fused with the PEG6000. The tural fusants were selected and identified by the affinity and ISSR analysis. 71 incompatibility strains between parents and reg regenerations were obtained from 118 regenerations by the affinity analysis. Five incompatibility strains were amplified with different primers, the results were showed that they had specific bands of both parents in the profile amplified with 3 primers, which proved these 5 strains were fusants by means of molecular biology marker. On the other hand, 25 strain were selected from 168 protoplast regenerations of cultivated strain T for cultivation experiment. The fresh sclerotium weight of these protoplast regenerations were better than the original strain.significantil 3 strains (T-1, T-4, T-7) increased respectively 118%, 73% and 73% than original strain. This method could be the effective in the rejuvenation Poria cocos.

Study on sexual dimorphism in Littorphism in Littorina brevicula should be interesting to examine that how the species prevent niche-overlap between the sexes? and how the species act differently in the reproductive roles of the sexes? Sexual dimorphism on the shell of L. brevicula was examined with 211 periwinkles larger than 5 mm shell length in Pusan, Korea. Sexual dimorphism was detected in the aperture length only. Aperture length of the female was longer than that of the male. A difference in the sexual role in the reproduction seems to be a probable explanation for the sexual dimorphism in the aperture length. The reproductive role of the male is to choose the best female and to transfer the sperm successfully by copulation, and the role of the female is to spawn their fertilised eggs into the seawater successfully. Perhaps females migrate to lower elevations on the shore than the males, so that they are submerged when they spawn. Because wave action at the lower area of the shore is stranger than that at the higher area on the shore, the females might need larger aperture size than the males to avoid dislodgement.

This study was carried out to investigate the suitability of various agricultural by-products as basal substrates for the mycelial growth and fruiting body formation of Hericium erinaceum. For this aim, oak sawdust, cotton waste, sugarcane bagasse, Job's tears, rice hull, Chinese cabbage, and coconut waste were used as sole or mixed substrate(s). Corn waste and rice bran were used as nutrient supplements. The growth and density of mycelium, yield of fruiting body, and biological efficiency were compared among tested substrates colonized by Hericium erinaceum. The best measurement of mycelial growth and density, yield of fruiting body, and biological efficiency in a laboratory test was found in a spawn substrate composed with oak sawdust 80% and rice bran 20%. The suitability of this spawn substrate composition for Hericium fruiting body production was testified through practical tests in plastic bottles (850 ml) in a mushroom farm which had bottle cultivation facility. However, test in a mushroom farm which had plastic bag cultivation facility, best production of Hericium fruiting body (520 g per one bag) was observed in a spawn substrate composed of cotton waste 40%, saw dust 40%, corn waste 10%, and rice bran 10%.

For the practical using of liquid spawn we carried out selection test of nutrient sources, cultural methods and cultural apparatus for liquid spawn production of oyster mushroom(ASTI 2001, ASTI 2018, ASTI 2072, ASTI 2016, ASTI 2070, ASTI 2180, ASTI 2183, ASTI 2042). The optimal temperature and pH range for mycelial growth of Pleurotus species were $25^{\circ}C\;to\;30^{\circ}C$ and 5.5 to 6.5, respectively. The effect of carbon sources, nitrogen sources and mineral salts on the mycelial growth was studied using petridish culture. Generally, the disaccharides and polysaccharides showed good effect for mycelial growth of Pleurotus species, and the polysaccharides were superior to the other classes of carbon sources for mycelial growth. For the mycelial growth of the 8 oyster mushroom stains, soybean flour was superior to the other kinds of nitrogen sources. On the other hand, addition of mineral salts did not affect, and even poor under certain mineral salts, the mycelial growth of the 8 oyster mushroom stains. The brown sugar selected out the carbon source of the agricultural medium. Also the soybean flour selected out the nitrogen source of agricultural medium. In the medium selection, we selected out agricultural optimum medium composed of brown sugar 3%, soybean flour 0.3%, potassium phosphate 0.05%, magnesium sulfate 0.05%. Under the 250 ml erlenmeyer culture, the effects of such factors as the inoculum rate, the working volume, cultural method and flask shapes on the mycelial growth were examined. The optimal inoculum rate and working volume on the mycelial growth of oyster mushroom was 2 mycelial disk (diameter 6 mm) and 100 ml, respectively. The shake flask culture was enhanced the mycelial growth than at the erlenmeyer flask. Pulp form growth of mycelium in the erlenmeyer flask culture was obtained in the culture with glass rod of length 50 mm, diameter 10 mm.

To develop artificial cultivation and improve some problems such as auto-lysis on commercialization of Coprinus comatus that has been known edible and medicinal mushroom, they were conducted for selection of superior strain, suitable culture methods for mycelial growth and fruiting, and morphological characteristics of fruit body. Strain CM 980301 of Coprinus comatus was selected as a superior strain for artificial cultivation. Wheat grain and rice straw full-grown compost media were most effective for preparation of spawn and artificial cultivation of C. comatus, respectively. Spawn running of Coprinus spp. on the rice straw full-grown compost media required to be 15 days from 24 to $28^{\circ}C$. The casing layer incubation before initiation of fruit body formation, required for 13 days at same temperature for spawn running. And then require $10{\sim}11$ days for initiation and $7{\sim}8$ days for development of fruit body from 20 to $24^{\circ}C$. The fruit body of strain CM 980301 was harvested within a week from initiation of primordium formation. The hardness of pileus and stipe that were harvested in optimal stage showed 102 to 169, and 128 to $182\;g/cm^2$, respectively. Yields of srain CM 980301 from the rice straw full-grown compost media was $37.7kg/3.3m^2$. Weight of individual fruit body was 17.9 g in average.

Spawning inducement of striped knife-jaw, Oplegnathus fasciathus, was attempted by two experiments. In experiment I (Exp. I), water temperature was gradually increased from 14.5$^{\circ}C$ in December 15, 1996 to $21.0^{\circ}C.$ in February 22, `997 and then maintained at this level. Photo-period was also gradually increased from 10.5L/13.5D in December 15, 1996 to 15.5L/8.5D in February 17, 1997, and then maintained at this level. In experiment II (Exp. II), water temperature was increased in the same way from Exp. I. Photoperiod was natural conditions from December 1996 to March 9, 1997, and then suddenly increased to 15.5L/8.5D until the end of experimental period. Spawning of the fish was occurred from February 22 through April 2, 1997 (for 40 days) in Exp. I. Number of total spawned eggs was 30.04 million and fertilization rate was 77.2%. The fish began to spawn at $21.0^{\circ}C.$ and 15.5L/8.5D. It requied 65 days to spawn since the water temperature had increased from $14.5^{\circ}C.$ to $21.0^{\circ}C.$. Spawning of the fish was not occurred until March 9, 1997 in Exp. II. After 7 days, photo-period was suddenly incresed to 15.5L/8.5D and fish were spawned from March 17 through April 4, 1997 (for 20 days). Number of total spawned eggs was 21.28 million and fertilization rate was 72.1%. The fish began to spawn at $21.0^{\circ}C$ and 15.5L/8.5D. It required 65 days to spawning since the water temperature had increased from $14.5^{\circ}C$ to $21.0^{\circ}C$.

The main objectives of this study were to fruit body of Phellinus linteus using liquid spawn. Highest mycelial growth and in vitro fruiting was observed when $180m{\ell}$ of water was added to 200g of brown rice in $1000m{\ell}$ PP bottle. Optimum inoculum amount was 100ml per bottle. Better mycelial growth and fruiting were observed when the amount of brown rice was lowered. For timber log culture of P. linteus, low contamination was observed when logs were sterilized for as low as 60 mins. But, best mycelial growth was observed when the logs were sterilized for 120mins. Among different log types, highest mycelial growth and fruiting were observed in oak and mulberry. Only few fruiting could be observed in birch, chestnut, alder, while no fruiting was produced in Aspen. Best fruiting was produced from isolate PH-211, although other isolates also produced few fruiting.
