This study was carried out to compare chromosomal characteristics between Atractylodes japonica and A macrocephala. Cytogenetic analysis was conducted based on karyotype analysis and physical mapping using fluorescence in situ hybridization. As a result of karyotype analysis by feulgen staining, somatic chromosome numbers of A. japonica and A. macrocephala were 2n=24. The length. of the mitotic metaphase chromosomes of A. japonica ranged from $0.70\;to\;1.60{\mu}m$ with a total length. of $12.11{\mu}m$ and the homologous chromosome complement comprised six metacentrics, five submetacentrics and one subtelocentrics. On the other hand, the length of the mitotic metaphase chromosomes of A. macrocephala ranged from $0.90\;to\;2.35{\mu}m$ with a total length of $16.58{\mu}m$ and the homologous chromosome complement comprised seven metacentrics and five submetacentrics. The total length of A. japonica chromosomes was shorter than that of A. macrocephala, but A. japonica had one subtelocentrics (chromosomes 4) different from A. macrocepha1a. chromosomes. The F1SH technique using 17S and 5S rDNA was applied to metaphase chromosomes. The signals for 17S rDNA were detected on the telomeric regions of chromosomes 4 and 5 in both A japonica and A. macrocephala. The 5S rDNA signal was found in the short arm of chromosome 1.

Suspension cell lines have been newly established from the calli derived from the immuature embryo culture of hexapolid (Triticum aestivum var. sicco), tetrapolid (T. durum) and diploid (T. tauchii or Aegilops squarrosa) wheat species. The chromosomal variation in suspension cultured cell lines was examined and old cell line, C82d, established from T. aestivum var. copain was also used. New method using 1-bromonaphthalene for metaphase rapping of suspension cells was developed. Variation in chromosome number was observed among all the suspension lines. Cells with doubled chromosome number and deleted chromosome were also observed. Extensive structural changes in chromosome were found in C82d line. Chromosome aberrations showed loss of chromosome arms and chromosome segment. The mean chromosome number in suspension cells of T. aestivum var. sicco was 40, in C82d line 33, in T. durum 28 and in T. tauchii 14. The stability of chromosome in suspension cells of diploid and tetrapolid wheats was higher than that of hexaploid wheat.

A study on chromosome of leucocytes in blood cultures derived from 6 normal Korean was performed . Exact chromosome counts were carried out on 205 cells in male, 211 in female , of which 86.05% revealed a chormosome mordal number of 46. On the basis of relative chromosome lengths and position of centromeres, the Karyotype that the human chromosomes were classified into 7 groups with 22 airs of autosome and one pair of sex chromosome was determined accoridng to the method of denver report. The chromosome number on metaphase was observed in short term cultures of leucocytes from the peripheral blood of 2 patients with chronic granulocytic leukemia and 1 patient with acute granulocitic leukemia . and the chromosome morpholoogy was also investigated in one acute leukemic patient. In all leukemic cases the leucocytes showed the constant value of 46 in the stem -line of chormosome number. But the frequency of cells with 46 chromosomes appeared in the 3 cases was 67.30% in average with a slightly higher range in hypo-andhyper-diploid chromosome numbers than in normal human, The idiogram analysis did not show any abnormality of chromosome in acute leukemic cells.

Cytoskeletal changes were observed during cell division of the green alga Zygnema cruciatum using flourescein isothiocynate (FITC)-conjugated phallacidin for F-actin staining and FITC-anti-$\alpha$-tubulin for microtubule staining. Z. cruciatum was uninucleate with two star-shaped chloroplasts. Nuclear division and cell plate formation occurred prior to chloroplast division. Actin filaments appeared on the chromosome and nuclear surface during prophase, and the F-actin ring appeared as the cleavage furrow developed. FITC-phallacidin revealed that actin filaments were attached to the chromosomes during metaphase. The F-actin ring disappeared at late metaphase. At telophase, FITC-phallacidin staining of actin filaments disappeared. FITC-anti-$\alpha$-tubulin staining revealed that microtubules were arranged beneath the protoplasm during interphase and then localized on the nuclear region at prophase, and that the mitotic spindle was formed during metaphase. The microtubules appeared between dividing chloroplasts. The results indicate that a coordination of actin filaments and microtubules might be necessary for nuclear division and chromosome movement in Z. cruciatum.

These experiments were carried out to obtain basic information necessary for sexing embryos by chromosomal analysis. To observe metaphase chromosomes, all embryos developed to blastocysts were cultured in Ho, pp. & Pitts' medium containing 0.001% Colcemid under the gas phase of 5% CO2 in air at 37$^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours. The sex chromosome of mouse embryos shown normal development after culture in medium containing H-Y antiserum (10%, v/v) and complement (20%, v/v) also was confimed by chromosomal analysis. The results obtained in these experiments were summarized as follows: 1. Among 89 mouse blastocysts, the number of embryos identified to have XX and XY chromosome was 22(25%) and 25(28%), respectively and 42(47%) embryos were not identified. 2. Of total 40 mouse balstocysts cultured in medium containing H-Y antiserum and complement, 23(58%) embryos which were able to be discriminated their sex chromosomes were identified to be XX bearing embryos. 3. Sex chromosomes of a number of embryos subjected to chromosomal analysis were not identified. This result may be due to absence or poor quality of metaphase spreads.

As a series of systematic classification of paramphistomes, the worms in the rumen and reticulum were collected on 214 Korean cattle slaughtered at Jeonju abattoir from January, 1986 to April, 1987 and were classified by means of morphology. Afterwards, the karyotype of Paramphistomum cervi(Zeder, 1790) was detected by means of modified air.drying method from germ cells of the worms. The results were summarized as follows: 1. In the chromosome number of 254 p. cervi, the haploid cell was n:9 and the diploid 2n=18. The meiotic divisions were observed frequently; 1,924 haploid and 32 diploid cells were reliable. Nine pairs of mitotic chromosomes were homologous in the metaphase stage, and the chromosomes were composed of five medium-sized metacentrics (m) , subtelocentrics(st) or submetacentrics(sm) and four small-siRed subtelocentrics(st) or submetacentrics(sm). Meiotic metaphase was composed of five medium and four small chromosomes in size. 2. As a series of C-banding method, C-band was showed in centromeric region from all of the haploid germ cells. Whereas chromosome No. 3 and 5 included heterochromatin on the tip region, chromosome No. 4 on the distal region and No. 6 proximal region. And chromosomes No. 2 and 8 showed a remarkable C-band distinguished from other chromosomes.

Analyses of now karyotypes using different maize (Zea mays L.) inbred lines have been performed. The accumulation and isolation of high quality and quantity metaphase chromosomes from root tips can be achieved from many kinds of maize lines. The chromosome suspensions were prepared by a simple slicing method from synchronized maize root tips and analyzed with a now cytometry. The variations of experimental now karyotypes were detected among inbred lines in terms of the positions and/or the numbers of chromosome peaks. The 2C DNA amount among 8 inbred lines ranged from 5.09 to 5.52 pg. The variability of DNA content in maize chromosome 1 was 9.1 % ranging from 0.685 to 0.747 pg. The selection of appropriate maize lines is critical for sorting specific single chromosome types. At least five different chromosome types can be discriminated and sorted from five maize lines.

동결 과정 중 필수적인 단계중 하나인 냉각(cooling)과 냉각 후 배양시간이 생쥐 난자의 방추체의 형태와 염색체의 배열에 미치는 영향을 알아봄으로서 냉각 후 손상되었던 난자의 방추체와 염색체가 정상적으로 회복하는데 필요한 최적의 배양시간을 알아보기 위해 본 실험을 실시하였다. 생후 4-6주령의 암컷 B6C3Fl 생쥐를 과배란 처리하여 metaphase II상태의 난자를 회수하여 다음과 같이 처리하였다. 대조군은 난자를 냉각처리하지 않았으며 실험군은 난자를 $0^{\circ}C$에서 30분간 냉각한 후 37$^{\circ}C$에서 가온하여 즉시 일부 난자는 면역형광 염색을 실시하고 나머지 난자는 5% $CO_2$ 37$^{\circ}C$가 유지된 배양기내에서 Ml6 배지에 각각 5분, 15분, 30분, 60분, 120분간 배양한 후 면역 형광염색을 실시하였다. 난자의 방추체와 염색체를 평가하기 위한 면역형광염색은 Zenes 등의 방법(2001)에 준하여 실시하였다. 냉각처리하지 않은 생쥐 난자를 면역형광 염색하여 방추체와 염색체를 관찰한 결과 생쥐 metaphase II 상태의 난자는 대칭성의 원통모양의 방추체 형태를 보였으며 염색체는 metaphase plate위에 분리된 다발모양으로 밀집되어 보였다. 냉각 직후 미세관의 소실에 의한 방추체 형태의 이상과 형광성의 소실이 나타났으며 염색체는 다발모양의 밀집된 형상에서 벗어나 비정상적인 배열상을 보였다. 냉각 처리된 난자를 37$^{\circ}C$에서 가온하고 배양하였을 때 미세관의 재중합이 일어나 미세관의 형광성을 회복하기 시작하였고 방추체는 정상적인 배열상으로 회복되었다. 생쥐 난자를 냉각처리한 후 배양시간에 따른 방추체 미세관의 형광성(FIS), 염색체의 배열, 방추체의 형태를 비교하였다. 배양 5분에서 60분까지 FIS, 정상 염색체 배열을 보인 난자의 비율, 정상 방추체의 형태를 보인 난자의 비율이 점진적으로 증가하였으나 120분 배양에서는 감소하였다(P<0.05). 위의 세 가지 평가를 기준으로 하여 냉각 후 난자의 회복율을 관찰하였을 때 배양 60분에서 최상의 회복율을 나타냈다.
