Determination of ploidy level for the mother plant is prerequisite for effective breeding. The study was carried out to determine the ploidy level in 7 different plant materials by FISH karyotype analysis. Among the seven plant varieties analyzed, all exhibit tetraploid (2n = 4x = 28) based on the results observed in chromosome analysis. Four signals of 45S rDNAs were detected on the terminal region of the short arm of chromosome 7. The length of somatic metaphase chromosomes ranges from 1.67 to $2.67{\mu}m$ in 'Alexandra', 1.40 to $2.04{\mu}m$ in 'Freud', 1.64 to 2.24 in 'Little Silver', 1.69 to $2.26{\mu}m$ in 'Teresa', 1.70 to $2.65{\mu}m$ in 'Tineke', 1.35 to $2.08{\mu}m$ in 'Vital', 1.39 to $2.04{\mu}m$ in 'Yellow Mimi'. Total length of the chromosome ranges from $11.23{\mu}m$ in 'Freud' as minimum to $15.05{\mu}m$ in 'Alexandra' as maximum. The karyotypes were composed of metacentric, submetacentric, and subtelocentric chromosome but there is no subtelocentric chromosome.

Chromosome analysis using karyotyping and bicolor FISH were carried out for two Maackia species (M. fauriei and M. amurensis) found in Korea. The somatic metaphase chromosome number was 2n = 2x = 18 in both, and the size of these chromosomes ranged from 3.58 to $5.82{\mu}m$. The chromosome complements consisted of two pairs of metacentric (chromosomes 1 and 7), four pairs of submetacentrics (chromosomes 4, 6, 8 and 9) and three pairs of subtelocentrics (chromosomes 2, 3 and 5) in M. fauriei but, chromosomes 4 (subtelocentric) and 7 (submetacentric) of M. amurensis have different morphology. Using bicolor FISH, a pair of 45S rDNA loci were observed for both M. fauriei and M. amurensis, but the number and site of the 5S rDNA signal were different in the two species. M. fauriei has two pairs of 5S signals on chromosomes 7 and 8 but, M. amurensis has four paris on chromosomes 3, 4, 7 and 7. Hence, the 5S rDNA is a useful FISH for Maackia species.

Karyotype analysis and chromosomal localization of 5S and 45S rDNAs using multi-color fluorescence in situ hybridization (McFISH) technique were carried out in Bupleurum longeradiatum. Somatic metaphase chromosome number was 2n=12. Karyotype was composed of three pairs of metacentrics (No.3, 4 and 6) and three pairs of submetacentrics (No. 1, 2 and 5). The length of somatic prometaphase chromosomes ranges from 2.55 to $5.05{\mu}m$ with total length of $18.15\;{\mu}m$. In FISH experiment, one pair of 5S rDNA signals was detected on the pericentromeric region of chromosome 4 and one pair of 45S rDNA signals was detected on the telomeric region of chromosome 2.

Karyotype analysis and chromosomal locailization of 45S and 5S rDNAs using McFISH (multi-color fluorescence in situ hybridization) were carried out in Jeffersonia dubia Benth., which is one of medicinal plants belonging to Berberidaceae. The somatic metaphase chromosome number was 2n=2x=12 and the size of chromosomes ranged $1.95{\sim}3.50\;{\mu}m$. The chromosome complement consisted of two pairs of metacentrics (chromosomes 1 and 3), two pairs of submetacentrics (chromosomes 2 and 4) and two pairs of subtelocentrics (chromosomes 5 and 6). In McFISH, one pair of 45S rDNA site was detected on the centromeric region of chromosome 2 and three pairs of 5S rDNA sites were detected on the short arm of chromosomes 4, 5 and 6, respectively.

Karyotype analysis and chromosomal localization of 5S and 45S rDNAs using FISH (fluorescence in situ hybridization) technique were carried out in Nicotiana plumbaginifolia. Somatic chromosome number of N. plumbaginifolia was 2n=20 and kyarotype was composed of three pairs of metacentric chromosomes (1,2 and 7) and seven pairs of submetacentric chromosomes (3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9 and 10). Length of chromosomes was ranged from 2.29 to 4.50 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. Chromosome 1 and 2 were identified as satellite chromosomes. In FISH experiment, one pair of 5S rDNA signals was detected on the centromeric region of chromosome 2 and one pair of 45S rDNA signals was detected on the terminal region of chromosome 1.

Karyotype analysis was carried out in four lines of Bupleurum falcatum L. cultivated in Korea and SDS-PAGE was applied to determine the seed protein profiles among the lines. Chromosomes were classified into two groups, large and small ones. Two kinds of karyotype, 2n=20 and 2n=26, were identified. Chromosome 1 of 2n=20 were all submedian, while that of 2n=26 were median. Chromosomes 2, 3 and 5 of 2n=20 showed polymorphism in size and arm-ratio. Chromosome 2 was submedian, while others were median in the line of 2n=26. Karyotypcs of cultivars native of Korea were similiar each other, while those introduced from Japan showed different patterns. In SDS PAGE gels, qualitative difference s in high molecular weight proteins, more than 45KD, were detected among the lines. The numbers of specific band were three in lines of 2n=20 and two in 2n=26.

Phylogenetic relationships were examined for 17 taxa of Lycoris by RAPD analysis. The length of the amplified DNA fragments ranged from 300 bp to 1,700 bp. 57 scorable RAPD markers were observed from PCR reactions with five random oligoprimers. The analysis by UPGMA sepatated the examined taxa of Lycoris into were clusters. First group was comprised of ten taxa of L. chinensis var. sinuolata, L. sanguinea var. koreana, L. uydoensis, L. flavescens, L. radiata var. pumila, L. radiata, L. squamigera, L. chejuensis, L. aurea and L. guangxiensis, second group of L. haywardii, L. sprengeri, L. rosea, L. straminea and L. houdyshii, third group of outgroup of Narcissus tazetta var. chinensis and Crinum asiaticum var. japonicum. From the viewpoint of cytological characters such as polyploidy and karyotype, the RAPD analysis was very useful to show the relationship among the intraspecific taxa of Lycoris.

In this study, the optical properties of CaF2-Al2O3-B2O3-TiO2 (CABT) system glass doped with rare earth ion, that is used in various light devices due to its excellent luminous properties, were analyzed as a function of kind of crystal phases formed and size of crystals generated in the glass matrix. TiO2 was added to control nucleation and crystallization, and Eu2O3 was added to enhance the luminescence characteristics. DTA analysis was performed to confirm the heat treatment condition of crystal generation, and XRD and SEM anal ysis were carried out for the crystal phase change of nanometer size. As a result of the analysis, the luminous properties of oxy-fluoride-based glass were improved duo to crystallization of nanometer size, but was rather degraded when excessively large crystals were generated.

Karyotypes of Korean spotted serpent head [Channa argus (Cantor)] were analyzed to obtain a basic information on the cytogenetics of this fish. Diploid chromosome numbers were found to be 48, of which 2 were submetacentric, 10 were submeta- or subtelocentric, and 26 were acro- or telocentric chromosomes without notably hetermorphic sex chromosomes. Cytogenetical implications of the results are discussed.
