This study examined the histochemical and physiological characteristics during Korean native Ogol chickens (KNOC) development. The body weight, Pectoralis major and soleus muscle weights, and muscle samples were taken at hatching as well as at 3, 5, and 15 weeks of age. The fiber characteristics of the Pectoralis major and soleus muscles from the KNOC at hatching to 15 weeks of age were determined, and the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), ribonucleic acid (RNA), and protein concentrations were measured from the left Pectoralis major muscles. A greater increase in body and muscle weights was detected between hatching and 3 weeks of age than during any other period. Moreover, the cross sectional area (CSA) of the fibers, as well as the total concentration of DNA, RNA, and protein also showed a greater increase betweenhatching and 3 weeks of age than during any other period. The KNOC breed is a dual purpose breed, however, the it has lower body and muscle weights than commercial meat type chickens or layer type chickens. Moreover, the KNOC breed has a small muscle fiber CSA of and a low nucleic acid concentration.

A lysozyme is isolated and purified partially form the egg white of Korean native Ogol fowl(Natural monument No. 265) by the method of direct crystallization. The bacteriolytic activities of 1% lysozyme against Staphylococus aureus 57, Bacillus subtilis ATCC 6633, and Escherichia coli NIHJ-JC2 was investigated with or without some other antibacterial materials in the nutrient broth culture. According to the results, 1% lysozyme showed the appreciable bacterolytic activities of about 12-16% to the almost of bacteria cultured. The synergistic effect with the lysozyme and some antibacterial materials on the growth inhibition of the bacteria cultured exhibited higher in order of the 0.001% magnolol -22%, the 0.001% honokiol -14% against S. aureus and of the 0.0005% erythromcin -29%, the honokiol -22%, the magnolol -l7%, the 0.005% phospholipase -6% against E. coli. And that synergistic effect against B. subtilis showed a fairly high level of about 52% with the erythromycin but not any effect with others.

To elucidate the effect of egg white lysozyme from Ogol fowl on the preservation of milks, fishcurd and sausage, changes of pH, volatile base nitrogen content and viable cell count were investigated during the storage periods at $20^{\circ}C$, $30^{\circ}C$ and $37^{\circ}C$ after the addition of lysozyme in each foods. Volatile base nitrogen count of raw milk as marker of spoilage was lowest(63 mg%) in 0.05% lysozyme addition lot which was stored at $20^{\circ}C$ for 2 days, and its preservation effect by lysozyme at $30^{\circ}C$ was enhanced with addition of glycine(0.1%). Preservation effect by lysozyme in commercial milk at $37^{\circ}C$ and in fishcurd at $5^{\circ}C$ and $20^{\circ}C$ were also good, and when sausage was stored at $5^{\circ}C$ after treatment of lysozyme instead of sorbic acid, its preservation effect was acceptable.

A study was carried out to investigate meat production ability of Korean native Ogol fowl (Natural Monument No, 265). The aims of this study were to provide basal data necessary for preserve of purebred and improvement of meat production ability of this breed. A total 300 chickens were used in this study. All the chickens were ad libitum fed broiler starter during period from 0 to 4 weeks of age and broiler finisher during period from 5 to 16 weeks of age. The investigated items are as follows; body weight; growth rate: weight of edible end inedible parts; and body shape components. The results obtained are summarized as follows. 1. Average body weight in male, female, and unsexed, of native Ogol fowls were $659.0{\pm}154.9$, $588.3{\pm}68.0$ and $623.7{\pm}121.9$ at 8 weeks of age, and $938.1{\pm}72.6$, $810{\pm}104.4$ and $874.1{\pm}109.4$g at 10 weeks of age, respectively. 2. The growth rates, unsexed, during periods 2~4, 4~6, 6~8 and 8~10 weeks of age were 166, 106, 41 and 40%, respectively. 3. The growth pattern of total edible parts in both sexes were highly significant by weeks. Total weight of edible parts in male and female were $395.4{\pm}$ and $355.6{\pm}42.0$g at 8 weeks of age, $597.5{\pm}$47.2 and $518.7{\pm}98.5$69.7g at 10 weeks of age. Percentage of total edible parts, unsexed, were 60~63% of body weight during periods from 8 to 10 weeks of age. 4. Edible giblet, unsexed, at age of 8 and 10 weeks were 4~6% of body weight. 5. Percentage of body weight of inedible part were on the decreased by weeks. The amount of blood blooded, feather plucked, inedible viscera and total inedible parts, unsexed, at 8 weeks of age were 4, 7, 12 and 31% of live body weight, respectively. 6. Except breast angle and shank diameter, the other body shape components significantly grew from 2 to 10 weeks of age. Different between male and female at 8 weeks of age were significant in breast girth, keel length, drumstick girth and shank diameter. 7. In both sexes, highly significant differences were found in the correlation coefficients between live body weight and several other body shape component, i. e., breast girth, drumstick girth, and edible part.
