We examined the genetic variability of Asian chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) populations using nuclear microsatellite (ms) DNA analysis with four polymorphic loci (OKM4, OKM5, OKM7, and OKM8) in 397 individuals from nine populations, including one in Korea, seven in Japan, and one in Russia. The msDNA gene diversity was highest in the Japanese populations, suggesting greater genetic variation in the populations in Japan than in populations in Korea and Russia. The pairwise $F_{ST}$ estimates based on our msDNA data showed that the Korean population was genetically different from the Japanese and Russian populations, and there were higher $F_{ST}$ estimates between Hokkaido and Honshu populations than between other population pairs. A neighbor-joining tree showed that the Korean population was distinct from two other clusters, representing the populations in Honshu and the populations in Hokkaido and Russia. These results suggest that the observed population genetic patterns of Asian chum salmon might be influenced by low or restricted gene flow.

Genetic diversity is one of fundamental parameters for rice cultivar improvement. Rice mutants are also a new source for rice breeding innovation. In this study, ninety-three SSR markers were applied to evaluate the genetic variation among nineteen rice mutant lines. The results showed that a total of 169 alleles from 56 polymorphism markers was recorded with an average of 3.02 alleles per locus. The values of polymorphism information content (PIC) varied from 0.09 to 0.79. The maximum number of alleles was 7, whereas the minimum number of alleles was 2. The heterozygosity values ranged from 0.10 to 0.81. Four clusters were generated using the unweighted pair group method with arithmetic mean (UPGMA) clustering. Fourteen phenotype characteristics were also evaluated. The correlation coefficient values among these phenotye characteristics were obtained in this study. Genetic diversity information of rice mutant lines can support rice breeders in releasing new rice varieties with elite characterisitics.

Thirty-two germplasms of Korean adlay landraces were examined to analyse the genetic relationship through the amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) approach. Total number of AFLP products generated by 12 selective primer combinations was 882. The number of polymorphic fragments by each primer combination greatly varied from 4 to 51 with a mean of 20.3, bands visible on the polyacrylamide gel. A genetic similarity coefficient was used for cluster analysis following UPGMA (unweighted pair grouping method of averages) method. The resulting clusters were represented in the form of a dendrogram. The clustering was not tight in the dendrogram. There was generally no clear grouping of the adlay according to the geographic regions in which germplasms were collected. The present AFLP analysis imply that although Korean adlay displayed a larger amount of AFLP variation within germplasms, the variation was shown independently without reflecting a clinal variation. This study demonstrated that AFLP method can be used to examine the genetic relationships among different germplasms of adlay.

A horizontal starch gel electrophoresis for enzyme proteins extracted from 2 species of Korean viviparid snails; Cipangopaludina chinensis malleata and C. japonica was carried out in order to elucidate their genetic relationships. A total of 10 enzymes were employed in three different kinds of buffer systems. Two loci from each enzyme of alcohol dehydrogenase, esterase, glucose phosphate isomerase, isocitrate dehydrogenase, iditol dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase and peptidase(VL); and only one locus dach from two enzymes, glycerlo-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and phosphoglucomutase were detected; but, four loci from peptidase(LGG) were observed. Most of loci in two viviparid species showed homozygous monomorphic banding patterns and some of them were specific as genetic markers between two different species. However, EST-1, MDH-1, PEP(VL)-1loci showed polymorphic banding patterns. Foru populations of C. chinensis malleata were more closely clustered in a dendrogram within the range of genetic identity values of 0.928-1.00, and these clusters were lineated with C. japonica at the value of 0.355. In summarizing the above results, two viviparid snail species dmployed in this study mostly showed monomorphic enzyme protein banding patterns, and genetic differences specific between two species.

There is vast genetic diversity of Myanmar Mangoes. This study mainly focused on indigenous thirteen different mango landraces cultivated in central area of Myanmar, Kyauk-se District and their fruit characteristics by 18 descriptors together with genetic relationship among them by 12 SSR markers. Based on the morpho-physical characters, a wide variation among accessions was found. Genetic characterization of thirteen mango genotypes resulted in the detection of 302 scorable polymorphic bands with an average of 4.33 alleles per locus and an average polymorphism information content (PIC) of 0.7. All the genotypes were grouped into two major clusters by UPGMA cluster analysis and a genetic similarity was observed in a range of 61 ~ 85%. This study may somehow contribute insights into the identification of regional mango diversity in Myanmar and would be useful for future mango breeding program.

Lindera obtusiloba (Lauraceae) is a dioecious tree that is widely distributed in the low-altitude montane forests of East Asia, including Korea. Despite its various pharmacological properties and ornamental value, the genetic diversity and population structure of this species in Korea have not been explored. In this study, we selected 6 nuclear and 6 chloroplast microsatellite markers with polymorphism or clean cross-amplification and used these markers to perform genetic diversity and population structure analyses of L. obtusiloba samples collected from 20 geographical regions. Using these 12 markers, we identified a total of 44 alleles, ranging from 1 to 8 per locus, and the average observed and expected heterozygosity values were 0.11 and 0.44, respectively. The average polymorphism information content was 0.39. Genetic relationship and population structure analyses revealed that the natural L. obtusiloba population in Korea is composed of 2 clusters, possibly due to two different plastid genotypes. The same clustering patterns have also been observed in Lindera species in mainland China and Japan.

Nitrosomonadales 목에서 속하는 균주 중 현재 유전체 서열이 알려진 모든 유전체(N=10)를 이용하여 범유전체 및 핵심유전체 분석을 수행한 결과, 각각 9,808개와 908개 유전자클러스터를 포함하는 것을 확인하였다. Betaproteobacteria의 다른 목의 참조군들과 비교를 통하여 범유전체와 핵심유전체의 크기에 유전체의 수와 집단 내의 유전체들의 차이가 영향을 미치는 것을 확인하였다. Nitrosomonas 속과 Nitrosospira 속의 범유전체는 7,180개와 4,586개, 핵심유전체는 1,092개와 1,600로로 각각 측정되어 Nitrosospira 속의 동질성이 더 높은 것을 확인하였다. Nitrosomonadales 목의 범유전체와 핵심유전체의 크기에 Nitrosomonas 속이 대부분의 영향을 미치는 것을 확인하였다. COG 분석을 통하여 핵심유전체의 크기에는 J (translation, ribosomal structure and biogenesis) 범주가 가장 큰 비율(9.7-21.0%)을 차지하며, 유전체 사이의 유전적 거리가 먼 집단일수록 그 비율이 높아지는 것을 확인하였다. 범유전체의 크기에는 "-" (unclassified) 범주가 34-51%의 높은 비율을 차지하고 있을 정도로 큰 영향을 미치는 것을 확인하였다. 총 97개의 유전자 클러스터가 참조군에는 없고 Nitrosomonadales에만 존재하는 것을 확인하였다. 이들 클러스터들은 Nitrosomonadales을 특징 지우는 유전자들인 ammonia monooxygenase의 유전자인 amoA와 amoB와 그와 관련 있는 amoE와 amoD들을 포함하는 반면에 unclassified 유전자들도 상당량(16-45%)을 포함하고 있다. 이러한 유전자 클러스터는 Nitrosomonadales의 유전적 특이성을 밝히는 데 중요한 역할을 할 것이다.

Sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) is an important oilseed crop grown in tropical and subtropical areas. The objective of this study was to investigate the genetic relationships among 129 sesame landraces and cultivars using simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. Out of 70 SSRs, 23 were found to be informative and produced 157 alleles. The number of alleles per locus ranged from 3 - 14, whereas polymorphic information content ranged from 0.33 - 0.86. A distance-based phylogenetic analysis revealed two major and six minor clusters. The population structure analysis using a Bayesian model-based program in STRUCTURE 2.3.4 divided 129 sesame accessions into three major populations (K = 3). Based on pairwise comparison estimates, Pop1 was observed to be genetically close to Pop2 with $F_{ST}$ value of 0.15, while Pop2 and Pop3 were genetically closest with $F_{ST}$ value of 0.08. Analysis of molecular variance revealed a high percentage of variability among individuals within populations (85.84%) than among the populations (14.16%). Similarly, a high variance was observed among the individuals within the country of origins (90.45%) than between the countries of origins. The grouping of genotypes in clusters was not related to their geographic origin indicating considerable gene flow among sesame genotypes across the selected geographic regions. The SSR markers used in the present study were able to distinguish closely linked sesame genotypes, thereby showing their usefulness in assessing the potentially important source of genetic variation. These markers can be used for future sesame varietal classification, conservation, and other breeding purposes.

Clustering is an useful method to classify objects into subsets that have some meaning in the context of a particular problem and has been applied in variety of fields, customer relationship management, data mining, pattern recognition, and biotechnology etc. This paper addresses the unknown K clustering problems and presents a new approach based on a coevolutionary algorithm to solve it. Coevolutionary algorithms are known as very efficient tools to solve the integrated optimization problems with high degree of complexity compared to classical ones. The problem considered in this paper can be divided into two sub-problems; finding the number of clusters and classifying the data into these clusters. To apply to coevolutionary algorithm, the framework of algorithm and genetic elements suitable for the sub-problems are proposed. Also, a neighborhood-based evolutionary strategy is employed to maintain the population diversity. To analyze the proposed algorithm, the experiments are performed with various test-bed problems which are grouped into several classes. The experimental results confirm the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

The seven selected primers BION-13, BION-29, BION-61, BION-64, BION-68, BION-72 and BION-80 generated the total number of loci, average number of loci per lane and specific loci in Meretrix lusoria (ML), Saxidomus purpuratus (SP) and Cyclina sinensis (CS) species. Here, the complexity of the banding patterns varied dramatically between the primers from the three venerid clam species. The higher fragment sizes (> 1,000 bp) are much more observed in the SP species. The primer BION-68 generated 21 unique loci to each species, which were ascertaining each species, approximately 150 bp, 300 bp and 450 bp, in the ML species. Remarkably, the primer BION-80 detected 7 shared loci by the three clam species, major and/or minor fragments of sizes 500 bp, which were matching in all samples. As regards average bandsharing value (BS) results, individuals from CS clam species (0.754) exhibited higher bandsharing values than did individuals from SP clam species (0.607) (P < 0.05). In this study, the dendrogram obtained by the seven oligonucleotides primers indicates three genetic clusters: cluster 1 (LUSORIA01-LUSORIA07), cluster 2 (PURPURATUS08-PURPURATUS14), cluster 3 (SINENSIS15-SINENSIS21). Among the twenty one venerid clams, the shortest genetic distance that displayed significant molecular differences was between individuals 18 and 20 from the CS species (genetic distance = 0.071), while the longest genetic distance among the twenty-one individuals that displayed significant molecular differences was between individuals LUSORIA no. 02 and PURPURATUS no. 09 (genetic distance = 0.778). Relatively, individuals of SP venerid species were appropriately closely related to that of CS species, as shown in the hierarchical dendrogram of genetic distances. Eventually, PCR fragments exposed in the present study may be worthwhile as a DNA marker the three venerid clam species to discriminate.
