대농갱이, Leiocassis ussuriensis의 유도된 자성발생성 이배체의 초기 생존율, 초기 성장 및 성비를 분석하였다. 대농갱이 자성발생성 이배체는 일반 대농갱이 이배체 대조군과 비교 시 부화 180일까지 생존 및 성장 형질에서 모두 차이를 나타내지 않았다(P>0.05). 자성발생성 이배체는 부화 10주째 암수 판별이 용이한 수준의 난모세포 발달 정도를 보였고 일반 대농갱이 암컷과 난소 발달에 있어 유사하였다. 부화 10주째 생식소 조직학적 분석 결과 일반 대농갱이 이배체 자손들은 1:1의 암수 비율을 나타낸 반면, 자성발생성 이배체 자손들은 모두 암컷으로 판별됨으로써 본 어종의 성 결정 기구는 XX-XY를 기본으로 하는 암컷 동형접합형인 것으로 나타났다.

담배거세미나방(Spodoptera litura Fabricius)의 체내빙결점과 내한성이 검정되었다. 체내빙결점은 발육시기에 따라 다양했다. 알(약 -$27^{\circ}C$)이 가장 낮았고 용과 성충(약 $-18^{\circ}C$)이 다음이었으며 유충이 (-1$0^{\circ}C$~-$16^{\circ}C$) 가장 높은 온도를 기록했다. 유충의 체내빙결점은 유충의 영기가 진행함에 따라 상승했다. 각 발육단계의 치사저온온도는 각자의 체내빙결점보다 높았다. 알과 유충을 아치사온도에 미리 노출시킴으로서 치사온도에 대한 생존력을 높였다. 아치사온도는 또한 5령충의 혈림프 삼투압을 증가시켰으며 저온에 특이적인 단백질들(20과 27kD)을 발현하게 했다. 이상의 결과는 이 해충이 동결감수성 곤충류에 속함을 나타낸다.

In a previous study, we have demonstrated that S-methylmethionine sulfonium (SMMS) confers wound-healing and photoprotective effects on the skin, suggesting that SMMS can be used as a cosmetic raw material. However, it has an unpleasant odor. Therefore, in the present study, we synthesized odor-free SMMS derivatives by eliminating dimethyl sulfide, which is the cause of the unpleasant odor and identified two derivatives that exhibited skin-protective effects: one derivative comprised (2S,4S)- and (2R,4S)-2-phenylthiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid and the other comprised (2S,4R)-, (2S,4S)-, (2R,4R)-, and (2R,4S)-2-phenyl-1,3-thiazinane-4-carboxylic acid. We performed in vitro proliferation assays using human dermal fibroblasts (hDFs) and an immortalized human keratinocyte cell line (HaCaT). The two SMMS derivatives were shown to increase hDF and HaCaT cell proliferation as well as improve their survival by protecting against ultraviolet exposure. Moreover, the derivatives regulated the expression of collagen type I and MMP mRNAs against ultraviolet exposure in hDFs, suggesting that these derivatives can be developed as cosmetic raw materials.

우리나라 주요 과수류중 하나인 포도의 경정배양을 통하여 증식재료로 이용할 수 있는 다아체의 형성 및 이들의 신장에 미치는 생장조절물질의 영향에 관해 검토하였다. 경정배양 시 재료의 살균은 5월 초순에 생육이 왕성한 신초를 채취하여 NaOCl 1%용액에 10분간 살균한 것에 비해 Wilson액에 5분간 침지 살균했을 때 생존율이 높았다. 다아체의 증식은 3/4 MS 기본배지에 NAA 0.1 mg/L와 BA 3.0mg/L에서 양호하였다. 다아체로부터 신초의 신장은 3/4 MS배지에 AdSO$_4$80 mg/L, NAA 0.1 mg/L와 BA를 1.0~2.0 mg/L 혼합한 배지에서 양호하였으며 품종간 생장조절물질의 적정농도 차이는 거의 없었다.

Pinellia koreana K-H Tae & J-H Kim is a recently discovered Korea endemic medicinal plant species whose natural habitat is rapidly destroyed by industrial development. Described in this paper are culture conditions for high frequency plant regeneration via bulblet formation from leaf explant cultures of P. koreana. Leaf explants formed white nodular structures and off-white calluses at a frequency of 91.2% when cultured on MS medium supplemented with 2 mg/L BA and 0.5 mg/L NAA. However, the frequency of white nodular structures and off-white calluses formation was slightly decreased with an increasing concentration of NAA up to 4 mg/L, where the frequency reached 31.7%. Most petiole explants did not form white nodular structures and off-white calluses except the combination treatment of 2 mg/L BA and 2 mg/L NAA. Upon transfer onto MS basal medium, over 90% of nodular structures gave rise to numerous bulblets and developed into plantlets. Plantlets regenerated from bulblets were transplanted to potting soil and grown to maturity at a survival rate of over 95% in a growth chamber. Therefore, the in vitro plant regeneration system of P. koreana obtained in this study will be useful for mass propagation and long-term preservation of genetic resources of P. koreana.

Quercus floribunda (Tilonj oak) is among the five species of Quercus and an evergreen tree found in Kumaun Himalayan region. Timing of germination is a crucial event determining the success of seedling establishment and survival. The aims of the study were to investigate the effect of sowing date on the germination and morphological responses of Tilonj oak (Quercus floribunda), cultivated during the month of August-September, with supplementary irrigation. The experiment was conducted by sowing seeds at two dates with one month interval in glass house conditions at DSB Campus, Nainital, Uttarakhand, India. Present study revealed that higher germination percentage (46.67 %) was recorded at sowing time $S_2$ as compared to the sowing time $S_1$ (32.86 %). Germination percentage as well as seedling growth were affected by sowing date though the differences were insignificant. At both the sowing dates, highest germination percentage was recorded for large seeds (32.86-46.67 %) followed by medium (31.43-33.33 %) and lowest germination (6.67-7.14 %) was recorded for small size seeds. In all parameters assessed, sowing time $S_2$ had the best performance in combination with large seed size. Thus, September is suitable month for best germination, growth and seedling vigour and large seed size is recommended to silviculturists and tree planters. The information on seed germination and seedling growth is vital both for conservation and rehabilitation of degraded lands.

해산송사리(Oryzias dancena)를 대상으로 한 발생공학 연구시, 현재의 자연산란법은 매우 수동적이고 불편하다. 본 연구에서는 적정 시간에 해산송사리의 수정란을 획득하고자 인공산란을 위한 인간융모성생식선자극 호르몬(human chorionic gonadotropin; HCG)과 잉어 뇌하수체(carp pituitary extract; CPE)의 최적 농도를 조사하였다. 정자활성도, 산란율, 수정 후 3일에서의 수정란 생존율 및 부화율은 100 HCG IU kg^-1 BW (body weight)와 CPE 5 mg L^-1에서 가장 높았다(p<0.05). 본 종에서의 수정란 필요시, HCG와 잉어 뇌하수체 주사를 통하여 적정시간에 미수정란과 정자를 획득할 수 있었다. 본 연구 결과는 해산송사리의 실험동물화 개발에 유용하리라 사료된다.

Prunellae Spica, the herbaceous plant in the genus Prunella, is a traditional herbal medicine and has been reported to have diuretic, anti-bacterial and anti-oxidant effects. However, the mechanism of its action was not clearly identified. In the present study, we investigated the hepatoprotective effect of Prunellae Spica extract (PSE) against the damage of mitochondria and death in hepatocyte induced by oxidative stress. Treatment of arachidonic acid (AA)+iron significantly induced oxidative stress and apoptosis in the hepatocytes. However, PSE protected cells and inhibited apoptosis by altering the protein levels such as poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase and pro-caspase 3. Moreover, AA+iron induced reactive oxygen species production and mitochondrial dysfunction, and Both of them were inhibited by PSE treatment. PSE markedly activated AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), an important regulator in cell survival. Furthermore, this activation by PSE was mediated with liver kinase B1, a major upstream kinase that phosphorylates Thr 172 of AMPKα, and this activation was associated with its cell protection, as assessed by an experiment of a chemical inhibitor. In conclusion, this study demonstrate that PSE protects hepatocytes against oxidative stress as mediated with activation of LKB1-dependent AMPK pathway.

This is the first study to establish a complete protocol for micropropagation of Rehmannia glutinosa from root segments. The study involved investigating the effect of plant growth regulators on in vitro shoot regeneration and rooting and identifying substrates supporting survival and growth performance of ex vitro seedlings. A Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium containing 30 g/L sucrose for shoot induction and 0.2 mg/L indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), 1 mg/L 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP), and 1 g/L polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) for shoot multiplication resulted in the highest number of shoots per explant and shoot height. Applying a medium containing 0.5 mg/L IAA and 1 g/L PVP yielded optimal rooting of the shoots grown in vitro. Compost enriched with microbial inoculants and perlite enhanced seedling growth better than that with organic biofertilizer-free substrates (soil and sand). We recommend the continuous production of micropropagated R. glutinosa seedlings from root segments under the aforementioned conditions as a possible propagation technique for crops of this species.
