Ginseng has been well-known as a medicinal plant for thousands of years. Bacterial endophytes ubiquitously colonize the inside tissues of ginseng without any disease symptoms. The identification of bacterial endophytes is conducted through either the internal transcribed spacer region combined with ribosomal sequences or metagenomics. Bacterial endophyte communities differ in their diversity and composition profile, depending on the geographical location, cultivation condition, and tissue, age, and species of ginseng. Bacterial endophytes have a significant effect on the growth of ginseng through indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and siderophore production, phosphate solubilization, and nitrogen fixation. Moreover, bacterial endophytes can protect ginseng by acting as biocontrol agents. Interestingly, bacterial endophytes isolated from Panax species have the potential to produce ginsenosides and bioactive metabolites, which can be used in the production of food and medicine. The ability of bacterial endophytes to transform major ginsenosides into minor ginsenosides using β-glucosidase is gaining increasing attention as a promising biotechnology. Recently, metabolic engineering has accelerated the possibilities for potential applications of bacterial endophytes in producing beneficial secondary metabolites.

본 연구에서는, 충족농도를 기준으로 영양원를 제한한 경우와 탄소원 및 질소원이 각각 두 종류씩 혼재되어 있는 경우에 대해, 수돗물 토착세균 및 Pseudomonas fluorescence P17을 접종균으로 한 BRP법을 이용하여 세균의 재증식 특성을 연구하였다. 세균재증식능은 영양원의 제한에 의해 억제되는 것으로 나타났으며, 두가지 이상의 영양원이 동시에 제한된 경우, 세균재증식능의 억제가 더욱 증가되는 상승효과를 관찰할 수 있었다. 특히 제한된 영양원에 인이 포함되어 있는 경우, 상대적으로 더욱 낮은 세균재증식능을 나타내고 있었다. 그러나 $NO_3^-$-N에 대해서는 농도가 증가할수록 세균재증식능이 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 탄소원으로써 Glucose 및 Acetate 질소원으로 $NH_4^$-N 및 $NO_3^-$-N가 혼재되어 있는 경우를 대상으로 세균의 재증식 특성을 조사한 결과, 탄소원에 대해서는 Glucose 및 Acetate가 혼재되어 있는 경우가 각각의 탄소원을 단독으로 주입했을 경우보다 세균재증식능이 높게 나타났다. 또한 질소원에 대해서는 $NH_4^+$-N의 주입비율이 높아짐에 따라 세균재증식능이 증가하는 것으로 나타났다.

Two digestion trials were conducted to investigate the effect of feeding heated soybean meal (HSBM) on ruminal and post-ruminal digestion of organic matter (OM) and nitrogen (N), bacterial N flow to the duodenum and N balance in young calves weaned at 6 weeks of age. In trial 1, calves were fed concentrate diets containing soybean meal (SBM) or HSBM and hay mixed in the ratio of 6:4 to support daily weight gain of 0.5 kg. The same concentrate diets were used in trial 2, but the ratio of concentrate to hay was 7:3 to support body weight gain of 0.7 kg/d. Measurements were made 10 and 13 weeks of age in trial 1, and at 10 and 15 weeks in trial 2. Ruminal OM digestibility increased with advancing age in both trials. Ruminal OM digestion was not affected by the diets in trial 1, but it was greater for the SBM diet than for the HSBM diet at 10 weeks in trial 2. Net N loss from the rumen was lover for the HSBM diet than for the SBM diet in trial 1, but it was not affected by the diets in trial 2. Bacterial N flow to the duodenum, N digestion in the total digestive tract and N retention were not affected by the diets in either of the trials.

Significant alteration in the microbial community can occur across reclamation areas suffering subsidence from mining. A reclamation site undergoing fertilization practices and an adjacent coal-excavated subsidence site (sites A and B, respectively) were examined to characterize the bacterial diversity using 454 high-throughput 16S rDNA sequencing. The dominant taxonomic groups in both the sites were Proteobacteria, Acidobacteria, Bacteroidetes, Betaproteobacteria, Actinobacteria, Gammaproteobacteria, Alphaproteobacteria, Deltaproteobacteria, Chloroflexi, and Firmicutes. However, the bacterial communities' abundance, diversity, and composition differed significantly between the sites. Site A presented higher bacterial diversity and more complex community structures than site B. The majority of sequences related to Proteobacteria, Gemmatimonadetes, Chloroflexi, Nitrospirae, Firmicutes, Betaproteobacteria, Deltaproteobacteria, and Anaerolineae were from site A; whereas those related to Actinobacteria, Planctomycetes, Bacteroidetes, Verrucomicrobia, Gammaproteobacteria, Nitriliruptoria, Alphaproteobacteria, and Phycisphaerae originated from site B. The distribution of some bacterial groups and subgroups in the two sites correlated with soil properties and vegetation due to reclamation practice. Site A exhibited enriched bacterial community, soil organic matter (SOM), and total nitrogen (TN), suggesting the presence of relatively diverse microorganisms. SOM and TN were important factors shaping the underlying microbial communities. Furthermore, the specific plant functional group (legumes) was also an important factor influencing soil microbial community composition. Thus, the effectiveness of 454 pyrosequencing in analyzing soil bacterial diversity was validated and an association between land ecological system restoration, mostly mediated by microbial communities, and an improvement in soil properties in coal-mining reclamation areas was suggested.

본 실험은 질소 및 탄소원이 Cercospora kikuchii 균사생장에 미치는 영향과 여러 배양조건에서 생장한 C. kikuchii가 세균생장을 저지하는 정도를 알아보았다. C. kikuchii 균사생장에 적합한 질소원은 yeastextract였고, 탄소원으로는 sucrose, glucose, maltose, fructose를 첨가하였을 때 균사생장이 좋았다. C. kikuchii의 세균생장저지 실험에서 wild type은 pH 조건은 5.0에서, 질소원으로는 yeast-extract 또는 peptone.을 첨가하였을 때, 탄소원으로는 sucrose, maltose, glucose, fructose를 첨가한 배지에서 생장하였을 때 Erwinia carotovora와 Pseudomonas solanacearum의 생장을 크게 저지시켰다. 그러나 albino 돌연변이균주는 실허된 세균의 생장을 거의 저지시키지 못하였다.

Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora에 의한 배추 무름병은 배추에서 가장 큰 문제가 되고 있는 병 중 하나이다. 본 연구는 칼슘비료 시비가 배추 무름병 발생에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위하여 실시하였다 칼슘 비료 7종을 선발하여 배추 유묘에 엽면 살포한 후, 세균현탁액과 mineral oil을 4:1로 혼합하여 배추의 중앙 기부에 10 m1 관주 접종하는 mineral oil 접종법으로 접종하였다. 배추 유묘에 엽면 살포한 결과 calcium hydroxide가 다른 calcium 비료보다 무름병 방제에 효과가 높게 나타났다. 질소 비료시비는 무름병 발생을 촉진한 반면, calcium hydroxide를 수용액으로 엽면시비할 때 유묘에서뿐 아니라 포장 시험에서도 무름병 발생을 억제하였다. Calcium과 질소를 혼합 살포할 때도 calcium 단독살포와 마찬가지로 무름병 발생을 억제하였다.

A new approach for antimicrobial is based on the overproduction of reactive nitrogen species (RNS), especially; nitric oxide (NO) and peroxinitrite ($ONOO^-$-) are important factors to deactivate the bacteria. Recently, non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasma jet (APPJ) has been frequently used in the field of microbial sterilization through the generation of different kinds of RNS/ROS species. However, in previous study we showed APPJ has combine effects ROS/RNS on bacterial sterilization. It is not still clear whether this bacterial killing effect has been done through ROS or RNS. We need to further investigate separate effect of ROS and RNS on bacterial sterilization. Hence, in this work, we have enhanced NO production, especially; by applying a 1% of HNO3 vapour to the N2 based APPJ. In comparison with nitrogen plasma with inclusion of water vapour plasma, it has been shown that nitrogen plasma with inclusion of 1% of HNO3 vapour has higher efficiency in killing the E. coli and different type of cancer cell through the high production of NO. We also investigate the enhancement of NO species both in atmosphere by emission spectrum and inside the solution by ultraviolet absorption spectroscopy. Moreover, qPCR analysis of oxidative stress mRNA shows higher gene expression. It is noted that 1% of HNO3 vapour plasma generates high amount of NO for killing bacteria and cancer cell killing.

Organic farming is considered an effective form of sustainable agricultural management. However, understanding of soil microbial diversity and composition under long-term organic and conventional farming is still limited and controversial. In this study, the Illumina MiSeq platform was applied to investigate the responses of soil bacterial and fungal diversity and compositions to organic farming (OF) and improved conventional farming (CF, applied straw retention) in the rice-wheat rotation system. The results highlighted that the alpha diversity of microbial communities did not differ significantly, except for higher bacterial diversity under OF. However, there were significant differences in the compositions of the soil bacterial and fungal communities between organic and conventional farming. Under our experimental conditions, through the ecological functional analysis of significant different or unique bacterial and fungal taxonomic members at the phyla and genus level, OF enhanced nitrogen, sulfur, phosphorus and carbon dynamic cycling in soil with the presence of Nodosilinea, Nitrospira, LCP-6, HB118, Lyngbya, GOUTA19, Mesorhizobium, Sandaracinobacter, Syntrophobacter and Sphingosinicella, and has the potential to strengthen soil metabolic ability with Novosphingobium. On the other hand, CF increased the intensity of nitrogen cycling with Ardenscatena, KD1-23, Iamia, Nitrosovibrio and Devosia, but enriched several pathogen fungal members, including Coniochaeta, Corallomycetella, Cyclaneusma, Cystostereum, Fistulina, Curvularia and Dissoconium.
