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.

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.

Mechanical hair removal of carrot seed causes seed injuries and suppresses the germination in carrot cultivation. This study was performed to develop molecular markers for breeding high quality cultivars with short-hair seed. To meet this objective, random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD)-sequence characterized amplified region (SCAR) markers specifically linked to seed-hair characteristic were identified using CT-SMR 616 OP 389-1 line with short-haired seed and CT-SMR 616 OP 616-33 line with long-haired seed, bred by self-pollination for 6 years from 2008 to 2013, as parents. After seed hair lengths of these lines were analyzed using microscope, next generations were advanced and compared with the molecular markers polymorphism. From RAPD analysis using fixed lines in 2011, twelve RAPD primers showing polymorphic bands specific between the two lines were identified from 80 random primers. To develop RAPD-SACR marker, SCAR primers were designed based on sequence analysis of these specific RAPD bands and more than three combinations of primers were tested. As a result, it was found that the $SCA2_{1.2}$ amplified single polymorphic band from short-haired seed line. To confirm this result, $SCA2_{1.2}$ marker was retested by applying to the 2012 and 2013 progenies. Finally, it was concluded that the developed $SCA2_{1.2}$ marker distinguished short-haired line from long-haired seed line. Therefore, SCAR marker, $SCA2_{1.2}$ is expected to be utilized for breeding of the short-haired seed cultivars.

Partial nucleotide sequences of nuclear protein-coding recombination activating gene 1 (RAG1) gene of two Abbottina and five Microphysogobio species residing in Korea were analyzed to elucidate the molecular phylogenetic position of A. springeri Banarescu and Nalbant. In RAG1 tree A. rivularis was clearly separated from the monophyletic lineage composed of A. springeri, Biwia zezera and Microphysogobio species. Within this lineage B. zezera showed sister-group relationship to the monophyletic group composed of A. springeri and five Microphysogobio species. Thus, our phylogenetic tree revealed the polyphyletic nature of two Abbottina species from Korea, which result is well congruent with the previous phyletic assumption based on osteological features. The current classification of Abbottina and Microphysogobio based on morphological criteria, such as the presence or absence of papillae on lips and size of swim bladder with or without encapsulation, does not reflect their true evolutionary history.

Copper,zinc superoxide dismutase (Cu,Zn-SOD) plays a key role to the first antioxidant defense system against oxidative stress in diverse aerobic organisms. Due to the housekeeping action of Cu,Zn-SOD, it was reported that the structure and function have been conserved during evolution. In this study Cu,Zn-SOD from cloudy catshark Scyliorhinus torazame was subjected to phylogenetic analyses to know its evolutionary relationship in the vertebrate lineage. Molecular phylogenetic trees inferred by NJ, MP, ML and/or Bayesian analyses showed two shark species, Prionace glauca and S. torazame grouped together with high statistical supports. In general, they placed at the separated position from bony vertebrates. Thereafter, bony vertebrates composed of teleosts and birds/mammals (amniotes) formed a monophyletic group. Each teleost and amniote clade was also supported by relatively high statistical values. These phylogenetic relationships are well congruent with the phylogenetic hypothesis of the ancestral position of cartilaginous fishes to bony vertebrates.

We conducted a phylogeographic analysis of Korean endemic Zacco koreanus populations inhabiting the East-flowing river (Gangneung Yeongokcheon; GY, Yangyang Namdaecheon; YN), the Han River (Seomgang; SG, Soksacheon; SS), and the Nakdong River(Gilancheon; GA) using the mitochondrial DNA cytochrome oxidase I (COI) gene (619 bp). Population genetic analysis was further performed to assess the population connectivity for the GY river where there is a large number of human-made artificial weirs with several fishways. The phylogeographic analysis revealed that while the populations of the East-flowing river and those of the Han River formed a monophyletic lineage, the Nakdong River individuals represented a distinct lineage with 3.7-4.2% (mean=4.0%) genetic distance from the other lineages. The population genetic analysis of the GY showed that a mid-stream population harbored relatively higher mitochondrial diversity relative to up- and down-stream populations, and there was no genetic differentiation between these three populations. The latter findings might suggest high genetic connectivity between the populations via genetic flow along the fishways. However, an analysis using faster-evolving genetic markers, such as microsatellites, is needed to confirm the findings of high population connectivity. Our study suggests the possibility of the presence of cryptic species in Z. koreanus in the Nakdong River basin. However, further study with more individual samples as well as additional markers or even more advanced genomic tools is required to test our hypothesis. Ecological or phenotypic analyses should be conducted to test whether the observed Nakdong River lineage represents a different or cryptic species, or simply hidden, but excessive, intraspecific diversity.

터리풀속(Filipendula)은 장미과(Rosaceae), 장미아과(Rosoideae)에 속하는 다년생 초본이며, 북반구 온대지역의 산지지역에 서식하며 15-20여 종이 보고되어 있고, 이 중 10여종이 한국, 중국, 일본, 타이완 등의 동아시아 지역에 분포한다. 본 연구의 목적은 DNA 염기서열 자료를 이용하여 터리풀속(Filipendula)내 종들간의 계통관계를 규명하기 위하여 본 연구를 수행하였다. 이를 위해서 11종 29개체의 터리풀속(Filipendula)샘플과 외군인 산딸기나무속(Rubus)에 속하는 3종 5개체의 샘플을 이용하였다. 추가로 Genbank에서 3속 10종 18개의 염기서열을 다운받아 비교분석에 이용하였다. 계통연구를 위하여 엽록체에 존재하는 atpF-atpH, psbK-psbI, psbA-trnH, matK, rbcL, 5개 마커와 핵에 존재하는 ITS, 총 6개 마커의 염기서열을 생산하였다. 총 52개의 샘플에 대하여 엽록체유전체 5개 마커지역은 염기서열 길이가 3,485bp였고 핵 ITS지역은 631bp였으며, 이들을 합한 염기서열 길이는 4,116bp였다. 계통분석결과, 터리풀속(Filipendula)은 단계통군을 이루었다. F. occidentalis와 F. vulgaris가 기저분류군을 이루었고 이들은 각각의 아속에 해당한다. 그리고 나머지 종들은 모두 하나의 단계통군을 이루었다. 위의 결과들은 1961년 시미즈가 본 속을 Hypogyna아속, Filipendula아속, Ulmaria아속으로 나눈 분류시스템과 일치한다. 나아가 분자계통수에서 Ulmaria아속은 크게 4개의 subclade로 구분되었다. 먼저 subclade I에는 F. vestita, F. kiraishiensis, F. tsuguwoi, F. multijiuga, F. purpurea 등 5개 종으로 구성되었다. Subclade II는 F. ulmaria 한 종으로만 구성되었다. Subclade III에는 F. glaberrima, F. koreana, F. formosa, F.camtschatica 로 구성되었으며 subclade III에는 한국에 서식하는 3종이 포함되었다. Subclade IV에는 F. rubra, F. angustiloba, F. palmata, F. intermedia 4종으로 구성되었다. 이번연구에서는 Ulmaria아속내에 4개의 subclade가 존재함이 처음으로 확인되었다.
