Phylogenetic studies would clarify the diversity of fishes if the morphological analysis based on plesimorphy characters combined with new genetic analysis on molecular level, inferring more accurate and objective phylogeny and the taxonomy. Current molecular phylogenetic approach using mitochondrial genome provides the framework for a new hypothesis not only inferring the relationships between ancestor descendants but raveling the intra-, interspecies variation.

목재부후 민주름버섯류의 분류는 아직도 해결해야 할 문제점들이 많이 남아 있다. 그 이유는 민주름버섯류가 그만큼 특징들이 다양하고 형태는 유사하나 기원이 다른 이질적인 종류들로 구성되어 있기 때문이다. 민주름버섯류의 분류 대가인 Donk도 자신이 추구한 분류체계에 스스로 만족하지 못하고 후대의 학자들이 도전해야 할 문제점들을 자주 제시한 적이 있다. 이와 같은 현상은 민주름버섯류의 분류가 자연분류와 계통분류를 지향하여 보다 종합적인 방법으로 종의 개념에 접근할 필요가 있음을 시사한다. 이제 위에 언급한 영양생활, 형태, 배양, 또는 유전적인 특징외에 진화와 계통, 환경과 생태, 지리적 분포와 식생, 핵산구조와 분자계통분류 등과 같은 과제들을 아울러 다룰 수 있는 포괄적인 분류체제의 대두가 요청되고 있다.

The petal and sepal micromorphology of five species of Glechoma (Lamiaceae) was investigated to evaluate their taxonomic significance, and a molecular phylogeny using the sequences of internal transcribed spacers (ITS) regions of nuclear ribosomal DNA was carried out to resolve their phylogenetic relationships. Stomatal complexes were mostly found in the inner and outer part of the sepal from all investigated taxa, and the size length of the guard cell was variable among the taxa. Five types of trichomes (uni-cellular non-glandular trichome, multi-cellular non-glandular trichome, short-stalked capitate glandular trichome, long-stalked capitate glandular trichome, and peltate glandular trichome) were variable among the taxa as well as their distribution and density. In molecular phylogenetic studies, the genus Glechoma was composed of three geographically distinct major monophyletic groups (Europe-U.S.A., China-Korea, Japan). G. longituba in Korea and China formed well-supported monophyletic group. G. hederacea in Europe and U.S.A. formed a monophyletic and well-supported clade with G. sardoa, which are endemic species in Italy, with G. hirsuta falling as a sister to this clade. However, G. grandis did not form any phylogenetic relationships with the remaining taxa. The ITS analyses provided taxonomic boundaries of taxa in Glechoma although the petal and sepal micromorphological characters provided weak evidences of the systematic value. As further studies, incorporating more DNA regions to the matrix including other additional morphological analysis will be significant to provide clearer taxonomic structure in Glechoma.

This study aims to define the phylogenetic relationship within Korean section sabina and find molecular markers which resolve the phylogenetic relationship in genus Juniperus and section sabina. cpDNA matK and psbA-trnH were used as molecular markers. The combined analyses of two genes suggested that section sabina was a clade supported by 100% BP. The relationships of [J. chinensis var. sargentii+J. davurica] clade and [J. chinensis var. chinensis+J. chinensis var. procumbens+J. chinensis var. horizontalis] clade were supported by 91% BP and 100% BP, respectively. Thus, the classification of Korean section sabina would be appropriate at follows, (1) J. chinensis var. sargentii+J. davurica, and (2) J. chinensis var. chinensis+J. chinensis var. procumbens According to the results of separate analyses, matK seems to work better resolving power to clarify the phylogenetic ambiguity in Juniperus and section sabina than psbA-trnH.

Multiple changes of the photosynthesis pathway are independent evolutionary events occurring in the phylogeny of flowering plants, and such changes have occurred more than five times in Cyperaceae. In the tribe Cypereae, the C4 photosynthetic pathway appeared only once and is regarded as a synapomorphy of the C4 plants within this tribe. The morphological delimitation of genera within Cypereae does not correspond to their molecular phylogenetic relationships. In this study, the molecular phylogeny was compared with the photosynthetic pathways of Korean Cypereae (18 species of Cyperus, 1 species of Kyllinga, and 1 species of Lipocarpha). The photosynthetic pathways were determined by observing the leaf anatomy. The phylogenetic analysis was performed using three DNA regions (nrITS, rbcL, and trnL-F). According to the position of the photosynthetic tissue, 4 species (C. difformis, C. flaccidus, C. haspan, and C. tenuispica) and 16 species (14 Cyperus species, K. brevifolia var. leiolepis, and L. microcephala) were confirmed as C3 and C4 plants, respectively. Tribe Cypereae was divided into the CYPERUS and FICINIA clades, and all species of Korean Cypereae plants belonged to the CYPERUS clade in the phylogenetic analysis. Within the CYPERUS clade, C4 plants were monophyletic but their phylogenetic relationships were unclear. The genera Kyllinga and Lipocarpha were not supported as an independent genus in either case because they were nested by the Cyperus species in the molecular phylogenetic trees in the present and in previous studies. To determine the classification within the CYPERUS clade, a detailed morphological study and a molecular phylogenetic analysis at a high resolution will be necessary.

The snailfishes (Scorpaenoidei: Liparidae) is a large group requiring taxonomic reviews because of a potential taxonomic confusion due to its great similarity in external morphology between species and a variation of its body color with size. Molecular phylogeny and taxonomic review were conducted for 10 species in 3 genera reported around the Korean waters, which facilitate understanding interrelationship within its family, and further management of fisheries resources. Molecular phylogeny using mitochondrial COI (mtCOI) and nuclear RAG2 (nRAG2) sequences indicates that the reciprocal monophyly of the three genera (Careproctus, Crystallichthys, and Liparis) were supported except Crystallichthys matsushimae, being closely related to Careproctus notosaikaiensis in only mtDNA COI topology. Liparis ingens Gilbert and Burke (1912) was reported as a distinct species differing from L. ochotensis. However, in the present study, comparing L. ingens from Korea with L. ochotensis from Japan and Russia, the two species were well corresponded in their morphology and molecule, therefore, we suggest L. ingens to be treated as a junior synonym of L. ochotensis.

기존의 계통분류는 비교해부학적 및 비교발생학적 방법에 의해 소수의 특징적인 기준형질만을 가지고 상위분류군간의 분류범주를 정하고, 종을 배정하였기 때문에 상당한 인위성이 개입되었고, 이렇게 주관적으로 정리하다 보면 종종 한개의 분류군에 대하여 서로 불일치하는 경우도 있다. 따라서 상위분류군들은 분류군을 구성하는 많은 구성원들이 나타내고 있는 형질의 집합체로서, 다양한 형질에 의해서 다루어져야 한다. (중략)

The purpose of this study was to identify the phylogenetic relationships of the plants in the Korean genus Suaeda and to find out the molecular markers that could confirm the interspecies relationships in the family tree through molecular phylogenetic studies. We used the nuclear ribosomal DNA ITS and the chloroplast DNA matK, psbA-trnH, and trnL-trnF as the molecular markers. We could not distinguish between S. japonica and S. maritima and between S. maritima and S. australis in the ITS region and could not distinguish between S. japonica and S. australis with the base sequence in the psbA-trnH and trnL-trnF region. However, we analyzed the combinations of four molecular marker regions and confirmed that each of five plant species of the genus Suaeda formed the independent line. Therefore, it is considered that combinations of molecular markers would be useful for the analysis of phylogenetic relationships in the genus Suaeda. Further investigations of the ecological and morphological characteristics would be needed to understand the phylogenetic relationship and lineage diversification in the genus Suaeda.

비짜루과 둥굴레속(Asparagaceae: Polygonatum)은 전 세계적으로 약 90여 종이 알려져 있으며, 유럽, 북아메리카, 아시아 등 북반구 온대 지역에 집중적으로 분포한다. 국내 둥굴레속 분류군은 총 16분류군이며, 이중 잎이 호생하고, 난형에서 타원형 모양의 엽질성 포를 가지며, 화피통 내부에 털이 없고, 수술대 표면에 돌기가 나있는 분류군들은 용둥굴레열(series. Bracteata)에 속한다. 그러나 이들은 종간 교잡 또는 주요 기관의 형질 변이가 다양하여 중간형질을 보이는 개체군들에 대한 종 식별에 많은 어려움이 있었다. 경남 창원시에서 채집된 목포용둥굴레(P. cryptanthum) 변이 개체집단는 기존의 목포용둥굴레와 달리 식물체 높이와 화경·소화경이 길며, 포 부착위치의 변이 폭이 넓으며, 포가 타원형이고 밖으로 말리는 습성으로 형태적 차이가 나타났다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 명확한 분류학적 실체를 구명하고자 분자생물학적 계통분석(nrDNA ITS + cpDNA matK, trnK-rps16, rps16, rbcL) 연구를 진행중에 있다.
