For the forage sorghum breeding, 22 American M.S. lines and 58 inbred lines were sown in pots, and 80 local varieties in field in 1978. Their agronomic characteristics were as follow; 1. All of the tested lines/varieties were headed from 22nd to 26th of July. Varieties of 69-86% were headed from 17th to 31st of July. All of lines/varieties began their flowering within 3-5 days after heading and native varieties had wide variance in heading and flowering. 2. The plant height of M.S. lines, inbred lines and local varieties were 86-114 cm, 81-190 cm and 142-289 cm, respectively. Leaf blade length of M.S. lines and inbred lines were ranged from 52.2 to 53.4 cm and local varieties 70.7 cm. Average stem diameter of M.S. lines and inbred lines were ranged from 8.81 to 7.74 mm and local varieties 11.3 mm. 3. Stem diameter were significantly correlated with leaf length and leaf blade width. The internode length were also significantly correlated with plant height. Especially, all characteristics in local varieties were correlated with each other.

This study was carried out to evaluate the nutritional properties of quality protein maize (QPM) and to select the elite lines for corn breeding. Two laboratory procedures for simultaneous identification of QPM and lysine content analysis were performed. The $BC_{1}F_{2}$ lines of KS5/QPM and KS135/QPM were analyzed with opaque-2(o2) specific SSR marker in order to differentiate the opaque-2 carrying QPM lines from the non-opaque genotypes. Although no significant difference in protein content, significant differences in lipid, ash, and crude fiber contents were observed. The composition of unsaturated fatty acid of QPM lines was slightly lower than non-QPM lines, but there was no significant difference. Sulphur-containing amino acids such as methionine and cystine showed no difference between QPM and non-QPM lines. However, lysine content of QPM lines was 38% higher than that of non-QPM lines, and the essential amino acid content of QPM lines (28.1%) was higher compared to non-QPM lines (27.1%).

Growth characteristics such as density(quality), covering speed, green period, disease resistance, heading existence(number of seeds) and other characteristics were examined for selection of superior lines among the 133 zoysiagrass lines collected in 2001. Six superior lines were selected and the results were summarized as follows. Superior line, J01067 was longest for green period among the 133 zoysiagrasses and stayed green until the beginning of November. Leaf width of J01106 and J01129 lines was very narrow as 1.5mm and 2mm, respectively and superior for density(quality), covering speed and disease resistance. J01122 line was selected for strongest disease resistance among the lines of Zoysia japonica. Leaf width of J01128 was 3.2mm showing midium type and similar to standard cultivar, Sunburst. This line also showed higher density and strong disease resistance like J01106 and J01129. Five growth characteristics for morphological classification of 133 zoysiagrass lines was used and divided into 3 cluster groups. Of 133 lines, 6 standard cultivars and 6 superior lines were classified as follows. First cluster group contained Belare, Meyer, Anyang-jungji, J01067, J01122, and second group contained S-94 and J01105, and third group contained Sunburst, Konhee, J01106, J01128 and J01129.

We have established three immortal bovine muscular epithelial (BME) cell lines, one spontaneously immortalized (BMES), the second SV40LT-mediated (BMEV) and the third hTERT-mediated (BMET). The morphology of the three immortal cell lines was similar to that of early passage primary BME cells. Each of the immortal cell lines made cytokeratin, a typical epithelial marker. BMET grew faster than the other immortal lines and the BME cells, in 10% FBS-DMEM medium, whereas neither the primary cells nor the three immortal cell lines grew in 0.5% FBS-DMEM. The primary BME cells and the immortal cell lines, with the exception of BMES, made increasing amounts of p53 protein when treated with doxorubicin, a DNA damaging agent. On the other hand, almost half of the cells in populations of the three immortal cell lines may lack $p16^{INK4a}$ regulatory function, compared to primary BME cells that were growth arrested by enforced expression of $p16^{INK4a}$. In soft-agar assays, the primary cells and immortal cell lines proved to be less transformed in phenotype than HeLa cells. The three immortal epithelial-type cell lines reported here are the first cell lines established from muscle tissue of bovine or other species.

Five broiler chicken lines, namely HC, BPB2, CPB2, PB2 and UM1, involving in a selection program and differing in selection intensity and genetic background, were screened for randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) polymorphism using 10 selected decamer primers. Nine primers amplified the genomic DNA, generating 200 to 2,500 bp and all detected polymorphism between lines. Out of 74 bands scored using these primers, 34 (50.0%) were found to be polymorphic. The number of polymorphic loci ranged from 3 to 6 with an average of 4.33. Lines differed considerably for within-population genetic similarity estimated by band frequency (WS = 93.55 to 99.25). Between-line genetic similarity estimates based on band sharing as well as on band frequency ranged from 71.35 to 86.45 and from 73.38 to 87.68, respectively. Lines HC and PB2 were the most closely related to the other, while BPB2 and CPB2 appeared to be more distant from each other. The between-line genetic distance based on both band sharing and band frequency revealed the similar trends as for Between-line genetic similarity. Based on BS and BF criteria, BPB2 and CPB2 as well as PB2 and UM1 lines can be merged to launch a new genetic group for further progress in biometrical objectives. A phylogenetic tree, derived using Nei's coefficient of similarity revealed the different pattern of genetic distance between lines.

Kimchi cabbage (Chinese cabbage), radish and Cabbage are major Brassicaceae vegetables in Korea. Especially, we can easily develop whole plant from one microspore in Kimchi cabbage. To develop clubroot resistant doubled-haploid (DH) inbred lines, we pollinated a clubroot resistant turnip of 'IT 033820' with a Kimchi cabbage (Chinese cabbage) inbred of 'BP 079'. More than 85 DH inbred lines were developed from this combination. We screened about 400 materials including these DH inbred lines, commercial cultivars and breeding materials during 3 years using hydroponic system after inoculating single spore isolation race 4(SSI-04) inoculate. One inbred line derived from this combination selected as clubroot resistant and registered as 'Wonkyo20036ho'. We inoculated 26 DH inbred lines derived from 'Zoong-baek 2ho' using SSI-4, the percent of resistant plants varied from 0 to 83%. However the horticultural traits of highly resistant DH inbred line was poor. Thus we selected one DH line showing 77% resistant with yellow inner leaf and maid good head, was registered as 'Wonkyo20034ho'. Another DH inbred line derived from Korean variety of 'Wol-dong' showing 86% resistant was registered as 'Wonkyo20037ho'. Other DH inbred lines were derived from Chinese cultivar of 'Choon-hi-go-hang-wang' and 'Hwang-shim-zo48' showed 80 and 71% resistant, respectively, was also selected for registration. Even though DH inbred lines derived from turnip showed highly resistant to SSI-04 and provincial inoculate, they showed poor characteristics in horticultural traits. However, commercial seed companies showed interesting for adapting these DH inbred lines in commercial breeding.

In this work, a new high frequency transmission line structure combined with defected ground structure (DGS) and artificial dielectric substrate (ADS) structure is proposed. DGS patterns give add the additional inductance to transmission lines and results in the increased characteristic impedance for a given line width. To the contrary, ADS presents increased capacitance and reduced line impedance. So both play a role in reducing the length of transmission lines commonly, but in preserving the line impedance complementarily. This means that the length of transmission lines can be reduced furtherly by DGS and ADS without a critical change of line width compared to the cases when one of DGS and ADS is used only. As examples, $35{\sim}100{\Omega}$ transmission lines having DGS and ADS are designed, fabricated, measured, and compared to the simulation results. A good agreement between the simulated and measured line impedances is presented. In addition, the physical lengths of the proposed transmission lines are only 55.4~76.9% of those of the normal microstrip lines for the same electrical lengths.

Seeds of medicinal soybean [Glycine max(L.) Merill] are characterized by a black seed coat, white stripe at hilum border, yellow cotyledon, and very small seed weight. Production of this medicinal soybean has recently increased as a consumption increased. The objective of this study was to evaluate the growth characteristics and seed yield of collected medicinal soybeans and to obtain basic information on production practices and breeding materials. The collected medicinal soybean lines were cultivated at three locations for two years. Twenty-seven lines were planted at the Research Farm, Korea University, Namyangju city, on May 23, and at the Research Farm, Kyungpook National University, Taegu, on May 20, 1995. In 1996 field experiments, forty-four lines were planted on May 25, at Research Farm, Korea University, and twenty-seven lines among those were planted on June 7 at the Research Farm of National Yeongnam Agricultural Experiment Station, Milyang city. The investigated lines had purple or white flower. Flowering and maturing dates were similar or later than those of the control cultivars. Branch number was greater for the investigated lines. One hundred-seed weight of the lines ranged from 8.5 to 15.0 g. Mean seed yields ranged from 1.54 to 2.89 MT/ha. Nine lines of the investigated medicinal soybeans showed higher yield capacity than the control cultivars. Further research should be done on the improvement of the production system and breeding program of medicinal soybeans.

Two Atractylodes species, A. japonica Koidz. ex Kitam. (AJ) and A. macrocephala Koidz (AM) were used in this study. AJ population had higher amounts of Sesquiterpenoids and stronger tolerance to root rot but less vigor of root growth than AM population. Two populations (AJ and AM) were crossed to make interspecific hybrid population. A total of 98 lines propagated clonally were selected from a cross of AJ and AM, and evaluated for contents of sesquiterpenoids, atractylon (ATLN) and atractylenolide III (AT3) using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and growth characters such as plant height, stem number and root weight. HPLC profiles of the hybrids were compared with those of parent plants, and it demonstrated the production of introgression hybrid by crossing between AJ and AM. Of 98 clonal lines,10 lines were selected by 10% level based on the growth vigor and tolerance to root rot, and AJM2102-51 line showed the heaviest root weight (117.1 g/plant) among them. A total of 98 hybrid lines contained on average $0.16\;{\pm}\;0.10\;mg/g$ of $AT3,\;2.00\;{\pm}\;1.37\;mg/g$ of ATLN, and $2.16\;{\pm}\;1.40\;mg/g$ of total sesquiterpenoids, showing high coefficients of variation (above 65%). Ten lines having high contents of sesquiterpenoids were selected, and AJM2101-15 had the highest amount (9.83 mg/g) of ATLN, and showed 40.8 g/plant of root weight similar to mean value (39.9 g/plant) of hybrid lines. The result showed that the introgression of both characters of vigorous growth from AM and high sesquiterpenoids content from AJ could be possible to make new hybrid lines by crossing between AJ and AM.

Cell culture methods have been used to assess the cytotoxicity of dental materials. Different paramaters are used to monitor cytotoxic effects. But it is difficult to compare each investigator's results with different methods. The objective of this study was to investigate cytotoxic effect of several retrograde filling materials according to cell lines and assay methods. Cytotoxicity of Bestalloy (Dogmyung, Korea), Prisma APH(Densply International Inc., U.S.A.), Clearfil FII (Kuraray Co., Japan), Fuji II (GC Co., Japan), Fuji II LC (GC Co., Japan) and IRM (Densply Co., U.S.A.) on L929, 3T3 and KB permanent cell lines was measured. Radiochromium, Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release method and colorimetric assays, namely neutral red (NR) and MTT were used. Each material was mixed according to the manufacturer's instruction. They were tested as solid and extracted state. Cell culture media were added to each mixed or solid materials then the solution was collected and used as extract solutions. Solid Fuji II showed mild cytotoxicity on three cell lines using radiochromium release method. There was no difference in cytotoxicity of extract solution group using radiochromium release method. In colorimetric assay immediate Fuji II group and all the IRM groups showed severe cytotoxic effect. Difference in cyctotoxicity was due to rather kinds of cell lines than assay methods. Solid Fuji II and IRM showed mild cytotoxicity on three cell lines. But extract solutions had different cytotoxic effect according to cell lines using LDH release assay. Light-cured glass ionomer had mild to moderate degree of cytotoxicity on three cell lines. Cytotoxicity was affected by specimen prepaton. Susceptibility of each cell ines were also affected by assay emthods. It was suggested that cytotoxicity study using only one cell line and/or assay method might not accurately reflect the real toxic nature of dental biomaterials.
