  • 지난 반세기간에 우리나라에 채소 육종은 주요 채소의 주년공급을 가능하게 하였으며, 토지 생산성의 향상, 상품화율의 증대, 품질의 향상 등의 면에서도 괄목할 만한 성과를 거두었고 인공교잡은 물론이고 웅성불임성과 자가불화합성의 활용에 의한 1대잡종 품종의 일반화로 채소 산업의 발전에 크게 기여하였다. 앞으로는 기왕의 업적을 심화시키는 한편, 생산비를 절감하기 위한 생력화, 기계화 재배용 품종 및 내제초제성 품종의 개발 환경보호 및 식품안정성의 확보를 위한 내병층성 품종 개발, 수출시장과 다양화하는 국내의 시장기호에 대응하고 가공 식품의 표준화된 품질관리를 지원할 수 있도록 품질 면에서의 개량과 신작물 또는 신생태형 품종의 개발에도 더욱 노력이 필요하다. 이러한 육종목표를 달성하기 위한 유전자원의 확보는 더욱 어려워질 것이며 유전 양식이 복잡하고, 환경요인의 작용이 상대적으로 크기 때문에 전통적인 육종 방법만으로는 목표달성에 필요한 인적, 물적, 시간적 소요가 훨씬 증가될 전망이다. 유전변이의 창성 및 확대, 유용 대립인자의 도입, 동정 및 선발, 그리고 종자생산을 위한 자가 불화합성 및 웅성불임성과 개화·수정 관련 유전인자의 발현 조절에 분자유전학의 보완적 역할이 기대되며 이렇게 되면 전통육종과 분자유전학간의 잡종강세로 품종 개량의 효율은 크게 높아질 것이다.

  • There has been an enormous progress in understanding of how genes contribute to both normal and abnormal development. Also many laboratory works are exploring the intricacies of how to develop in the human central nervous system. Understanding the mechanisms of cortical development gives essential insight into the pathogenesis of many genetic and acqured developmental psychiatric disorders, including autism, schizophrenia, and teaming disorder. Genes have been implicated in an ever-increasing number of disorders. Advance in genetics have begun to clarify the molecular basis of not only single-gene disorders, but also more complex phenotypes.

  • Chrysanthemum is one of the top floriculture species with ornamental and medicinal value. Although chrysanthemum breeding program has contributed to the development of various cultivars so far, it needs to be advanced from the traditional phenotype-based selection to marker-assisted selection (molecular breeding) as shown in major cereal and vegetable crops. Molecular breeding relies on trait-linked molecular markers identified from genetic, molecular, and genomic studies. However, these studies in chrysanthemum are significantly hampered by the reproductive, genetic, and genomic properties of chrysanthemum such as self-incompatibility, inbreeding depression, allohexaploid, heterozygosity, and gigantic genome size. Nevertheless, several genetic studies have constructed genetic linkage maps and identified molecular markers linked to important traits of flower, leaf, and plant architecture. With progress in sequencing technology, chrysanthemum transcriptome has been sequenced to construct reference gene set and identify genes responsible for developments or induced by biotic or abiotic stresses. Recently, a genome sequencing project has been launched on a diploid wild Chrysanthemum species. The massive sequencing information would serve as fundamental resources for molecular breeding of chrysanthemum. In this review, we summarized the current status of molecular genetics and genomics in chrysanthemum and briefly discussed future prospects.

  • Molecular genetic approaches contribute to the understanding of the underlying genetic mechanism for schizophrenia. Currently genetic evidence rests on molecular genetic methods. However, the result are contradictory and somewhat confusing due to genetic heterogeneity, incomplete penetrance, misspecification of genetic model. It is expected that molecular genetics could provide key answers to the genetic cause of schizophrenia. The purpose of this article is to call attention of the readers to heterogeneity, linkage, association, basic molecular genetic methods and genetic markers and to the need far further research. It is the author's hope thai continuous research on the molecular genetics con provide clinicians with better understanding of the schizophrenia.

  • Cytogenetic analysis plays an important role in examinations of a variety of human disorders. Over the years, cytogenetic analysis has evolved to a great extent and become a part of routine laboratory testing; the analysis provides significant diagnostic and prognostic results for human diseases. Microarray in conjunction with molecular cytogenetics and conventional chromosome analysis has transformed the outcomes of clinical cytogenetics. The advantages of microarray technologies have become obvious to the medical and laboratory community involved in genetic diagnosis, resulting in greatly improved visualization and validation capabilities. This article reviews how the field is moving away from conventional cytogenetics towards molecular approaches for the identification of pathogenic genomic imbalances and discusses practical considerations for the routine implementation of these technologies in genetic diagnosis.

  • Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) is the causal agent of bacterial blight on rice. In this paper, current status on molecular genetic study of major virulence genes, hypersensitive response and pathogenicity (hrp), productions of extracellular polysaccharide (EPS), extracellular enzymes and lipopolysaccharides (LPS), avr genes were reviewed. The IS elements with 611 copies including 133 ORF IS were inserted in various regions of the Xoo genome and in expecially regions franking virulence genes. Whole genome sequence of X. oryzae pv. oryzae KACC10331 were used for defining genetic organization of the virulence genes. Futhermore, the virulence genes in Xoo genome were compared to those of other Xanthomonas species in Blast GenBank data base.

  • Using the cytb gene region of the mitochondrial DNA of eight populations of Sarcocheilichthys nigripinnis morii and five populations of S. variegatus wakiyae, which belong to the genus Sarcocheilichthys from Korea, the genetic diversity and molecular phylogenetic relationships of each population were examined. As a result of the analysis, it was confirmed that the S. variegatus wakiyae population had higher genetic diversity than the S. nigripinnis morii population. In the phylogenetic tree of genus Sarcocheilichthys fish in Korea based on the cytb gene, the Yeongsan River (YSR) population of S. variegatus wakiyae forms a clade with the Tamjin River (TJR), Yeongsan River (YSR), and Seomjin River (SJR) population of S. nigripinnis morii, and genetic relationships that do not align with the current classification system were observed. Meanwhile, on the nuclear DNA phylogenetic tree, S. variegatus wakiyae and S. nigripinnis morii could be clearly distinguished, showing mitonuclear inconsistency where mitochondrial and nuclear DNA conflicted on the phylogenetic tree. The Seomjin River (SJR) population of S. nigripinnis morii was translocated to the Dongjin River (DJR) population, haplotype from which crossbreeding was presumed to have occurred was confirmed. Among the rivers flowing into the East Sea, the S. nigripinnis morii population is known to have been introduced and inhabit only the Hyeongsan River (HSR), and it is presumed to be a population formed by translocation from the Han River (HR) population, with a haplotype representing a unique genetic group also confirmed. The Han River (HR), Geum River (GR), and Mangyeong River (MGR) populations of S. nigripinnis morii formed a genetically identical population with S. czerskii and S. soldatovi distributed north of the Yalu River, and accordingly, a taxonomic reexamination was required through morphological and molecular phylogenetic studies by securing various specimens.
