  • Objective: This experiment was conducted to compare the structure and composition of ruminal microorganisms in goats with high and low neutral detergent fibre (NDF) digestibility. Methods: Nineteen crossbred goats were used as experimental animals and fed the same total mixed rations during the 30-day pre-treatment and 6-day digestion trialperiods. All faeces were collected during the digestion period for measuring the NDF digestibility. Then, high and the low NDF digestibility individuals were chosen for the high NDF digestibility group (HFD) and low NDF digestibility group (LFD), respectively. Rumen contents were collected for total microbial DNA extraction. The V4 region of the bacterial 16S rRNA gene was amplified using universal primers of bacteria and sequenced using high-throughput sequencer. The sequences were mainly analysed by QIIME 1.8.0. Results: A total of 18,694 operational taxonomic units were obtained, within 81.98% belonged to bacteria, 6.64% belonged to archaea and 11.38% was unassigned microorganisms. Bacteroidetes, Firmicutes, and Proteobacteria were the predominant microbial phyla in both groups. At the genus level, the relative abundance of fifteen microorganisms were significantly higher (p<0.05) and six microorganisms were extremely significantly higher (p<0.01) in LFD than HFD. Overall, 176 core shared genera were identified in the two groups. The relative abundance of 2 phyla, 5 classes, 10 orders, 13 families and 15 genera had a negative correlation with NDF digestibility, but only the relative abundance of Pyramidobacter had a positive correlation with NDF digestibility. Conclusion: There were substantial differences in NDF digestibility among the individual goats, and the NDF digestibility had significant correlation with the relative abundance of some ruminal microorganisms.

  • 표고 재배사내 진균류의 발생특성을 분석하기 위해 골목에서 발생한 진균류를 분리·동정하고 재배사내 온·습도 환경을 분석하였다. 표고골목에서 발생한 진균을 분석한 결과 Cladosporium sp., C. cladosporioides, C. anthropophilum, Pleosporales sp., Trichoderma harzianum, Acremonium sp. 6종으로 확인되었다. 재배사내 환경을 조사한 결과는 5월 1일부터 10월 12일 사이에 재배사내 최고·저 온도가 14.0~30.1℃, 평균습도는 82.8%으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 표고 재배과정 중 진균류의 발생이 활발한 초여름부터 가을철 사이에 철저한 재배관리가 중요하며, 한번 발병한 진균류는 연중 재배사내 생존이 가능하기 때문에 주기적으로 모니터링하여 사전에 유해 진균류 발생에 유리한 생육환경을 예방해야 한다.

  • A white-pigmented, non-motile, gram-negative, and rod-shaped bacterium, designated CYS-02T, was isolated from soil sampled at Suwon, Gyeonggi-do, Republic of Korea. Cells were strictly aerobic, grew optimally at 20-28℃ and hydrolyzed Tween 40. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequence indicated that strain CYS-02T formed a lineage within the family Comamonadaceae and clustered as members of the genus Variovorax. The closest members were Variovorax guangxiensis DSM 27352T (98.6% sequence similarity), Variovorax paradoxus NBRC 15149T (98.5%), and Variovorax gossypii JM-310T (98.3%). The principal respiratory quinone was Q-8 and the major polar lipids contain phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phosphatidylethanolamine (PG), and diphosphatidylglycerol (DPG). The predominant cellular fatty acids were C16:0, summed feature 3 (C16:1ω7c and/or C16:1ω6c) and summed feature 8 (C18:1ω7c and/or C18:1ω6c). The DNA GC content was 67.7 mol%. The ANI and dDDH values between strain CYS-02T and the closest members in the genus Variovorax were ≤ 79.0 and 22.4%, respectively, and the AAI and POCP values between CYS-02T and the other related species in the family Comamonadaceae were > 70% and > 50%, respectively. The genome of strain CYS-02T showed a putative terpene biosynthetic cluster responsible for antioxidant activity which was supported by DPPH radical scavenging activity test. Based on genomic, phenotypic and chemotaxonomic analyses, strain CYS-02T was classified into a novel species in the genus Variovorax, for which the name Variovorax terrae sp. nov., has been proposed. The type strain is CYS-02T (= KACC 22656T = NBRC 00115645T).

  • Objective: The use of probiotics as an alternative to antibiotics in animal feed has received considerable attention in recent decades. Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) have remarkable functional properties promoting host health and are major microorganisms for probiotic purposes. The aim of this study was to characterize LAB strains of the chicken digestive tract and to determine their functional properties for further use as potential probiotics in poultry. Methods: A total of 2,000 colonies were isolated from the ileum and cecal contents of the chickens based on their phenotypic profiles and followed by a preliminary detection for acid and bile tolerance. The selected 200 LAB isolates with exhibited well-tolerance in acid and bile conditions were then identified by sequencing the 16S rDNA gene, followed by acid and bile tolerance, antimicrobial activity, adhesion to epithelial cells and additional characteristics on the removal of cholesterol. Then, the two probiotic strains (L. ingluviei and L. salivarious) which showed the greatest advantage in vitro testing were selected to assess their efficacy in broiler chickens. Results: It was found that 200 LAB isolates that complied with all measurement criteria belonged to five strains, including L. acidophilus (63 colonies), L. ingluviei (2 colonies), L. reuteri (58 colonies), L. salivarius (72 colonies), and L. saerimneri (5 colonies). We found that the L. ingluviei and L. salivarius can increase the population of LAB and Bifidobacterium spp. while reducing Enterobacteria spp. and Escherichia coli in the cecal content of chickens. Additionally, increased concentrations of valeric acid and short chain fatty acids were also observed. Conclusion: This study indicates that all five Lactobacillus strains isolated from gut contents of chickens are safe and possess probiotic properties, especially L. ingluviei and L. salivarius. Future studies should evaluate the potential for growth improvement in broilers.

  • 4-chlorobiphenyl (4CB)의 분해균주인 Pseudomonas sp. strain DJ-12의 16S rDNA의 염기서열을 분석한 결과 Comamonas sp. strain DJ-12로 재분류 되었다. Pseudomonas sp. strain DJ-12로부터 4CB의 분해결과 생성되는 2,3-dihydroxybiphenyl을 계속 분해하는데 관여하는 pcbC1Dl 유전자를 이미 보고된 바 있다. 이번 연구에서는 Comamonas sp. strain DJ-12로부터 4CB 분해에 관여하는 pcbABC2D2 유전자를 클로닝하여 염기서열을 분석하였다. PcbAB 및 pcbCD 유전자들의 염기서열은 48, 65%, 추정 아미노산 서열은 33, 42%의 낮은 유사도를 보였다. 본 연구에서 얻어진 pcbC2D2 유전자는 이미 보고만 pcbCIDl 유전자와 염기의 개수와 서열의 유사도가 서로 다름을 보여 주었다. Comamonas sp. strain DJ-12의 두 가지 pcbCD유전자들은 Southern hybridization 결과에서도 유사성을 보이지 않았으며, 서로 다른 위치에 존재함을 보여주었다. 그러나 2,3-dihydroxybiphenyl의 분해 특성은 동일하였다. 이와 같은 결과는 Comamonas sp. strain DJ-12 균주가 2조의 pcbCD 유전자를 가지고 있다는 것을 의미하는 것이다.

  • The purpose of this study was to detect expression of genes related to egg production in Taiwan Country chickens by suppression subtractive hybridization. Liver samples of mRNA extraction from two Taiwan Country chicken strains (L2 and B), originated from the same population but with very distinct egg production rates after long-term selection for egg and meat production respectively. Two-way subtraction was performed. The hepatic cDNA from the low egg production chickens (B) was subtracted from the hepatic cDNA from the high egg production strain (L2). The reversed subtraction (L2 from B) was also performed. The resulting differentially expressed gene fragments were cloned and sequenced. We sequenced 288 clones from the forward subtraction and 96 clones from the reverse subtraction. These genes were subjected to further screening to confirm the differential expression between the two genetic breeds of chickens. The apolipoprotein B (apoB) was expressed to a greater extent in the liver of the L2 than in the B line chickens. The 5-aminoimidazole- 4-carboxamide ribonucleotide formyltransferase/IMP cyclohydrolase (PURH) was expressed to a greater extent in the liver of the B than in the L2 strain chickens. We demonstrated that both apoB and PURH were more highly expressed in the liver than that in other tissues (muscle, ovary, and oviduct) in laying Taiwan Country chickens. Taken together, these data suggest that after the selection for egg production, expression of apoB and PURH genes were also changed. Whether the changed expression of these genes is directly related to egg production is not known, but these two genes may be useful markers for egg laying performance in Taiwan Country chickens.

  • As a first step towards identifying genes involving in the signal transduction pathways mediating rice blast resistance, we isolated 3 mutants lines that showed enhanced susceptibility to rice blast KJ105 (91-033) from a T-DNA insertion library of the japonica rice cultivar, Hwayeong. Since none of the susceptible phenotypes co-segregated with the T-DNA insertion we adapted a map-based cloning strategy to isolate the gene(s) responsible for the enhanced susceptibility of the Hwayeong mutants. A genetic mapping population was produced by crossing the resistant wild type Hwayeong with the susceptible cultivar, Nagdong. Chi-square analysis of the $F_2$ segregating population indicated that resistance in Hwayeong was controlled by a single major gene that we tentatively named Pi-hy. Randomly selected susceptible plants in the $F_2$ population were used to build an initial map of Pi-hy. The SSLP marker RM2265 on chromosome 2 was closely linked to resistance. High resolution mapping using 105 $F_2$ plants revealed that the resistance gene was tightly linked, or identical, to Pib, a resistance gene with a nucleotide binding sequence and leucine-rich repeats (NB-LRR) previously isolated. Sequence analysis of the Pib locus amplified from three susceptible mutants revealed lesions within this gene, demonstrating that the Pi-hy gene is Pib. The Pib mutations in 1D-22-10-13, 1D-54-16-8, and 1C-143-16-1 were, respectively, a missense mutation in the conserved NB domain 3, a nonsense mutation in the 5th LRR, and a nonsense mutation in the C terminus following the LRRs that causes a small deletion of the C terminus. These findings provide evidence that NB domain 3 and the C terminus are required for full activity of the plant R gene. They also suggest that alterations of the resistance gene can cause major differences in pathogen specificity by affecting interactions with an avirulence factor.

  • Phytophthora capsici는 고추에 역병을 일으켜 우리나라뿐만 아니라 전 세계적으로 심각한 피해를 주는 대표적인 식물병원균이다. 최근 환경문제로 화학 농약을 대체하여 유용미생물을 이용한 생물학적 방제가 가장 바람직한 방제 방법으로 대두되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 고추역병에 피해를 보이지 않는 건전한 고추재배지 근권에서 토양시료를 채취하여 토양근권세균을 분리하였다. 총 360여점의 미생물 콜로니를 분리하였으며, 이들 콜로니의 색깔과 모양 등의 형태학적 특징을 기준으로 총 12개의 그룹으로 재분류하였다. 그 중 항균작용을 알아보기 위해 실시한 in vitro 실험에서 고추역병균에 길항효과를 보인 GJ-1, GJ-11, GJ-12 균주를 분리하였으며 길항효과가 없는 균주 2개(GJ-4, GJ-5)를 대조군으로 선발하였다. 선발된 5균주에 대하여 sidero-phore의 활성을 검정한 결과 GJ-1과 GJ-5 두 균주가 CAS 배지에서 orange halo zone을 크게 형성하여 siderophore를 많이 분비하는 균주로 확인되었다. 그리고 토양중의 난용성 인산염을 가용화시켜 식물의 생장촉진효과를 보이는 phosphate solubilization 활성을 검정한 결과 GJ-1, GJ-5, GJ-12 균주가 난용성 인산염에 대한 분해능력을 나타내었다. 따라서 P. capsici에 강한 항균활성을 나타내며 siderophore를 생산하고 인산가용화 능력이 뛰어난 유용미생물 GJ-1을 최종적으로 선발하였다. 최종 선발된 GJ-1균주를 동정하여 Bacillus sp.로 명명하였다. Bacillus sp. GJ-1의 길항작용은 Rhizoctonia solani, Pythium ultimum, Fusarium solani에 대한 식물병원성 진균에서도 좋은 효과를 나타내었다. 따라서 Bacillus sp. GJ-1은 생물학적 방제제로 고추역병균을 포함하여 다른 토양 식물병원성 진균 방제에 이용 가치가 있을 것으로 판단된다.
