During 1993 and 1994, some mortalities of flounder(Paralichthy olivaceus) fry were recorded in several fish farms and viruses were isolated from 3 of the farms. Electron microscopic examination revealed that the virus particles were hexagonal and unenveloped with an average diameter of 50 to 55nm. Serological and molecular properties of these isolates were examined. The viral RNA and polypeptides patterns on electrophoresis, as well as neutralization test results, showed that these isolates were birnaviruses and two were closely related to infectious pancreatic necrosis virus(IPNV) serotype AB and one was to IPNV serotype SP. This is the first isolation of birnaviruses from marine fish in Korea.

TBTC, TBTO는 주로 선박이나 어망, 어구 및 양식용 그물 등에 다른 생물이 부착하지 못하도록 바르는 방오페인트로써 많이 사용되고 있는 물질이며, TPTC는 원래 살충제로 많이 사용되었지만 방오페인트의 효과를 증대시키기 위해 이 물질을 혼합하여 사용하기도 한다. 하지만 이들 물질들은 수계에 존재하는 생물들의 내분비계를 교란시키고 있다. (중략)

The effect on kidney, gill, and hepatopancreas of juvenile olive flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus were investigated by histological method under limit concentration of effulent of PCBs for 60 days. The free surface of epithelial cell layer in the renal tubules of kidney showed a strong positive reaction in alcian blue during all exposure period. There were also observed swelling of hemocyte in glomerulus and macrophage. At 60 days after exposure, epithelium of the renal tubules was fused and some of organism $(20\%)$ showed damage of glomerulus and eosinophlic cell in epithelium of the renal tubules. The phenomena such as the activation and increase of the chloride cell, and swelling of hemocyte in the capillary of gill were observed during all exposure period. At 60 days after exposure, swelling of the gill filament and mucous cell appeared in gill and some of organism $(30\%)$ showed swelling of the gill lamellar. Swelling of hemocyte in the capillary of hepatopancreas was observed and the free surface of epithelial layer of the bile duct showed positive reaction in alcian blue during all exposure period. Degenerated zymogen in the pancreas and swelling of the hepatocyte were occurred at 60 days after exposure.

제주도의 넙치양식은 1986년부터 종묘생산기술개발을 계기로 육상양식이 시작되어 1997년 12월 말에는 5,500여톤을 생산하기에 이르렀다. 넙치양식 업체의 수도 최근에 와서 급격히 증가하고 있으며 시설규모도 소규모에서 대규모로 전환하는 경향이다. 또한 사육방법도 고밀도로 사육하는 경우가 많고 부주의한 사육관리 등으로 각종 질병이 발생되고 있다(Lee and Ha, 1991). (중략)

The dietary value and fatty acids composition for the hatched neonates from the resting eggs of marine roofers, Brachionus plicatilis and B. rotundiformis were compared with that for mass-cultured rotifers (control) by feeding them to larvae of flounder (Paralichthy olivaceus) and parrot fish (Oplegnathus fasciatus). Resting eggs were mass-produced in $1~4m^3$tanks by feeding Chlorella sp. and baker's yeast. The B. plicatilis and B. rotundiformis eggs were preserved at $5^{\circ}C$ in darkness for 3 and 5 months, respectively, and hatched at $28^{\circ}C$ under continuous light. The hatched neonates from the resting eggs and mass-cultured rotifer, which was used as a rontrol were fed to fish larvaes. The growth and survival rates of parrot fish larvae fed on the neonates from the resting eggs of B. rotundiformis were similar to those of fish larvae fed on the control rotifer. And the growth and survival rates of the flounder larvae with neonates from the resting eggs of B. plicatilis were similar or higher than those fed the control rotifer. Also the fatty acids composition of the neonates from the resting eggs of B. plicatilis and B. rotundiformis were similar to those from the control rotifers. This results showed that the hatched neonates from resting eggs of rotifer could be used as an effective diet for flounder and parrot fish larvae.

Infectious pancreatic necrosis virus (IPNY) is an economically important fish pathogen since it causes the high-mortality disease in early stage of hatchery-reared fishes. In order to develop a rapid, sensitive and highly specific detection method for IPNV, reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was carried out using the oligonucleotide primers selected from the sequence of VP2, a major capsid polypertide of IPNV. As little as 40ng of purified IPNV dsRNA was detected by RT-PCR amplification, but no amplification products were obtained when nucleic acid genomes from other fish pathogens such as IHNV were used as RT-PCR templates. in situ RT-PCR methods are useful for the rapid and sensitive identification of IPNV.

This study was undertaken to get basic data for the cold-waterless transportation of live fish. The optimal cold temperature of plaice, Paralichthy olivaceus was determined by checking the changes of dissolved oxygen and ammonia in the sea water and the survival times during storage at various temperatures. After determination of optimal temperature for transportation, the changes of serum components and muscle components of live plaice were also carried out during storage at cold($5^{\circ}C$)-waterless conditions and the recovery conditions($10\%$ density at $15^{\circ}C$). At higher storage temperature, decreases in dissolved oxygen and the increases in ammonia in seawater were observed. In addition, the survival time was short at low temperature($0^{\circ}C\;and\;3^{\circ}C$). Almost all of the serum components(hemoglobin, glucose, LDH, GOT and GPT) of live plaice gradually increased during storage in cold-waterless conditions, and then those values decreased to the initial levels after $3{\sim}10hrs$ storage in conditions of recovery. The concentration of ATP in the muscle steadily decreased during storage in cold-waterless conditions. The contents of ADP and IMP seemed to be directly related to the extent of ATP breakdown. ADP and IMP thus showed a gradual increase during storage. The level of lactate in the muscles gradually increased during these storage times, also. On the other hand, the levels of those components in the muscle entirely recovered to their original levels within $3{\sim}6hrs$ storage after they were returned to conditions of recovery. The ratio of ATP to the ATP and its related compounds${ATP/(ATP+ADP+AMP+IMP){\times}100}$ in the muscle showed $45\%$ after 18hrs storage in cold-waterless conditions. Otherwise, ratios returned to their original levels within $3{\sim}6hrs$ of storage in recovery conditions.
