White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) causes the most serious epizootic in cultured penaeid shrimp. The epizootic started in 1992, and spread through east and south east Asia and into other shrrimp growing countries of the region. In order to circumvent the epizootic, in many Asian countries, freshwater prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii is being widely considered as an alternative species to marine shrimp. (omitted)

Five hundred and forty crossbred (Korean native black pig${\times}$Landrace) F2 were selected at a commercial pig farm and then divided into six different coat color groups: (A: Black, B: White, C: Red, D: White spot in black, E: Black spot in white, F: Black spot in red). Birth weight, 21st d weight, 140th d weight and carcass weight varied among the different coat color groups. D group (white spot in black coat) showed a significantly higher body weight at each weigh (birth weight, 140th d weight and carcass weight) than did the other groups, whereas the C group (red coat color) showed a significantly lower body weight at finishing stage (140th d weight and carcass weight) compared to other groups. Meat quality characteristics, shear force, cooking loss and meat color were not significantly different among the different coat color groups, whereas drip loss was significantly higher in F than in other groups. Most blood characteristics were not significantly different among the different groups, except for the red blood cells.

새우의 갑각에 흰점을 유발하는 특징을 가진 WSBV는 Baculovirus의 일종으로 여러 종류의 새우에 높은 치사율을 보이는 병원체로서 새우양식에 막대한 피해를 주고 있다. 본 연구에서는 국내에서 양식중인 대하에 질병을 유발한 WSBV의 특성을 알아내고자 치사한 새우로부터 바이러스의 게놈을 클로닝하여 재조합클론(E3)을 분자생물학적으로 분석하였다. E3의 염기서열을 분석한 결과, 이 클론은 AcNPV를 포함한 지금까지 알려진 어떠한 바이러스와도 뚜렷한 상동성(60%)을 보이지 않아 WSBV가 기존의 바이러스와 구분되는 새로운 바이러스임을 알 수 있다. E3의 염기서열에 기초하여 한쌍의 PCR 프라이머를 작성하였다. 병든 새우로부터 분리한 DNA를 30회 증폭한 결과, 예상크기의 산물을 얻을 수 있어 이 방법은 바이러스의 감염여부를 알아낼 수 있는 진단법으로도 활용가능하다.

White-spot syndrome virus (WSSV) is a devastating, infectious virus affecting shrimp. Although sensitive techniques involving PCR have been developed to assist farmers in screening shrimp (brood stock) for WSSV prior to stocking ponds, such practices have not yet been applied in Korea. Despite the rationality of implementing screening, there has been some doubt as to whether the stocking of WSSV-PCR-negative fly epidemiologically decreases white-spot disease outbreaks. Here, we report a retrospective analysis of data from shrimp farms in the western coast of Korea where WSSV-PCR-negative brood stocks were used to stock rearing ponds. A total of 366 shrimp from Heuksan Island were sampled for WSSV with PCR. Of the tested shrimp, 7.2% (28 brood stocks) were identified as WSSV positive; only WSSV-PCR-negative shrimp were used for brood stocks. Total unit production (final shrimp production/ the area of the ponds) was higher, at 1.96, in ponds where WSSV-PCR-negative shrimp were used, as compared with 1.02 in other ponds in Korea in 2004. This retrospective analysis of WSSV in Korea may be useful to the shrimp aquaculture industry, suggesting a testable hypothesis that may contribute to the eventual control of WSSV outbreaks.

This paper is a third report about the new fungal diseases of economic resource plants in Korea. It contains short descriptions on symptoms, occurrence conditions, pathogen, and some phytopathological notes for each of 10 fungal plant diseases. They are angular leaf spot of Achyranthes japonica by Cercospora achyranthis causing leaf spot and defoliation in the shade of plants, leaf spot of Armoracia lapathifolia by Cercospora armoraciae causing leaf spot to blight from the rainy season to autumn, hypophyllous mold of Dioscorea tokoro by Distocercospora pachyderma causing leaf spot and yellowing, hypophyllous mold of Artemisia spp.by Mycovellosiella ferruginea causing leaf spot and yellowing, angular leaf spot of Aralia elata by Pseudocercospora araliae causing velvety leaf spot and defoliation, hypophyllous mold of Lycium chinense by Pseudocercospora chengtuensis causing velvety leaf spot and defoliation from the rainy season to autumn, angular leaf spot of Diospyros lotus by Pseudocercospora disospyri-morrisianae causing leaf spot and defoliation from summer to autumn, brown leaf spot of Impatiens textori by Pseudocercospora nojimae causing leaf spot to blight from the rainy season, leaf spot of Cephalonoplos segetum by Ramularia cirsii causing leaf spot to blight throughout the growing season, and white mold of Leonurus sibiricus by Ramularia leonuri causing leaf spot to blight mostly in autumn.

The resistance against white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) infection in wild marine crab Gaetice depressus by the immunization of a recombinant glutathione-S-transferase (GST) fused VP28 protein (GST-VP28) was evaluated. The cumulative mortalities of GST-VP28 injected groups were lower than those of the control groups at 10 days of post-challenge, and the time to death of 50% crab ($TD_{50}$) was delayed by the immunization using GST-VP28. The group boosted with GST-VP28 after 2 weeks of primary immunization clearly showed longer $TD_{50}$ than non-boosted group against challenge with WSSV. This result suggests that boosting with the antigen protein elicit stronger immune responses similar to adaptive immune responses of vertebrates. However, the short $TD_{50}$ was observed in the group challenged at 3 weeks post boosting comparing to the group challenged at 1 week post boosting. This suggests that the protective strength of immunization decreased by the time.

WSBV를 염소소독 효과를 조사하기 위하여 유효농도 5, 10, 30 ppm의 차아염소산나트륨 용액을 처리한 결과 전혀 폐사가 일어나지 않았으나, 대조구에서는 전량 폐사되었다. 포비돈 요오드 10, 20, 30 ppm에서는 불활성화를 나타내지 않았는데 이는 유기물의 다량함유나 요오드 독성에 의해 시험새우가 폐사할 가능성이 있다. 일광소독에서는 2, 4시간 처리한 시험구에서는 폐사가 일어나지 않으므로 WSBV를 불활성화 시키는 것 같다. 건조처리에서는 1, 2, 3시간 처리한 시험구에서는 WSBV가 불활성화가 되었다. 담수처리에서는 담수 60% 첨가한 시험구(비중 1.015)에서 효과가 가장 크게 나타났다.

We report the first occurrence of Ophichthus erabo (Jordan and Snyder, 1901) collected in the waters around Jeju Island. The morphologic characteristics of this species include rich brown semicircular spots distributed on the head, the back, and the dorsal fins. Ophichthus erabo has a similar body color to Ophichthus polyophthalmus but can be clearly distinguished from the latter by the number of vertebrae (152-155 in O. erabo vs. 147-149 in O. polyophthalmus) and the existence of a white spot at the center of a semicircle (i.e., no white spot in O. erabo vs. a white spot in O. polyophthalmus). We suggest a new Korean name for O. erabo to be "Mul-bang-ul-ba-da-baem-gang-eo".

This study investigated the disinfection effect of monopersulfate (MPS) compound against white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) by bioassay using kuruma shrimp (Marsupenaeus japonicas). A WSSV stock was prepared with muscle homogenate from WSSV-infected whiteleg shrimp (Penaeus vannamei) and its lethal dose 50% endpoint (LD50) and infectious dose 50% endpoint (SID50) were respectively determined as 10-5.63 and 10-6.79 in bioassay using kuruma shrimp, followed by PCR assays. The disinfective effect of MPS compound (1.2 ppm, 2.4 ppm, 4.8 ppm) was performed by bioassay using about 10-fold higher dilution (10-4) of WSSV homogenate. The compound resulted in WSSV inactivation by a concentration-dependent manner. In addition, 4.8 ppm of MPS completely prohibited WSSV infection. To our knowledge, this study is the first report about the usefulness of MPS as a disinfectant to WSSV.

In this study, whiteleg shrimp (Penaeus vannamei) imported from Vietnam were collected from South Korean markets, and examined for 2 viruses: infectious hypodermal and hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHHNV, recently classified as decapod penstyldensovirus-1), and white spot syndrome virus (WSSV). Among 58 samples, we detected IHHNV in 23 samples and WSSV in 2 samples, using polymerase chain reaction and sequencing analyses. This is the first report of IHHNV and WSSV detection in imported shrimp, suggesting that greater awareness and stricter quarantine policies regarding viruses infecting shrimp imported to South Korea are required.
