Environmental parameters and phytoplankton community structure were investigated at four sites of Yeongsan River between April 2010 and December 2011. The standing crops of the phytoplankton ranged from $275cells{\cdot}mL^{-1}$ to $58,600cells{\cdot}mL^{-1}$ with an average of $5,850cells{\cdot}mL^{-1}$. The dominant species were Cyclotella sp., Stephanodiscus sp., Aulacoseira granulata, Scenedesmus quadricauda, Pediastrum biwae, Coelastrum sp., Aphnizomenon sp., and Oscillatoria sp.. The most dominant species was Stephanodiscus sp.. The concentration of chlorophyll-a ranged from $2.3mg{\cdot}m^{-3}$ to $164.2mg{\cdot}m^{-3}$. The phytoplankton community structure of the survey area was influenced by temperature and rainfall.

The fish fauna was investigated on summer (from July 28 to Aug. 2) and winter (December, 1994) at the Munsom in Cheju-do. As a result of this study, the fishes identified in these areas were classified into 79 species involved in 35 families. And seven species unrecorded in Korea were found, i.e. Halicampus boothae, Cirrhitichthys aprinus, Stegastus altus, Parupeneus sp., Pomacentrus sp., Pomacentrus sp., and Pomacentridae sp. In this region large number species of family Pomacentridae (12 species), family Labridae (9 species), Scorpaeinidae(6 species) and Blennidae (5 species) were observed in summer.

Stated Preference (SP) data has been regarded as more useful than Revealed Preference (RP) data, because researchers can investigate the respondents\` Preference and attitude for a traffic condition or a new traffic system by using the SP data. However, the SP data has two bias: the first one is the bias inherent in SP data and the latter one is the attrition bias in SP panel data. If the biases do not corrected, the choice model using SP data may predict a erroneous future demand. In this Paper, six route choice models are constructed to deal with the SP biases, and. these six models are classified into cross-sectional models (model I∼IH) and dynamic models (model IV∼VI) From the six models. some remarkable results are obtained. The cross-sectional model that incorporate RP choice results of responders with SP cross-sectional model can correct the biases inherent in SP data, and also the dynamic models can consider the temporal variations of the effectiveness of state dependence in SP responses by assuming a simple exponential function of the state dependence. WESML method that use the estimated attrition probability is also adopted to correct the attrition bias in SP Panel data. The results can be contributed to the dynamic modeling of SP Panel data and also useful to predict more exact demand.

This experiment was conducted to study the qualitative changes of grafted cactus after harvest and to examine the decomposition characteristics of pathogenic fungi which occurs or grows during the simulated shipping period. Plant materials with four varieties of Gymnocalycium mihanovichii var. friedrichii including, 'Hukwang', 'Huhong', 'Hwangwol', 'Yeunhwa' and two varieties of Chamaecereus silvestrii f. variegate such as 'Goldcrown' and 'Yellowcrown' were used. During the simulated shipping period, the fresh-weight, bulb diameter, carbon dioxide emission rate, and decomposition rate were observed. The regeneration rate and decomposition rate were observed for the grafted cactuses that were placed in a greenhouse environment with a temperature of $28{\pm}12^{\circ}C$ and humidity of $36{\pm}15.3%$ after 40 days of simulated shipping. There were reductions in the fresh-weight and bulb diameter in every variety as time passed while the carbon dioxide emission rate showed no meaningful difference by each variety. Furthermore, the decomposition rate in the scion was higher than in the stock. According to the analysis of pathogenic fungi by decomposition characteristics, Alternaria sp., Cladosporium sp., Colletotrichum sp., Fusarium sp., Penicillium sp. in G. mihanovichii var. friedrichii were found and Alternaria sp., Bipolaris sp., Cladospoirum sp. in C. silvestrii f. variegate were identified. Therefore, to maintain and improve the quality of grafted cactus, it is necessary to analyze the factors of decomposition from the time of harvest until the point of export and develop a process technology to minimize the decomposition rate.

A faunal study on the marine decapods of Saemangeum located in the western part of South Korea was performed during the period from August 21, 2003 to October 25, 2003. Forty four species in 17 families were identified through the present investigation, which were represented by 15 species of shrimps in seven families, three species of anomurans in two families, and 26 species of crabs in eight families. Three species of the identified species were new to Korea: Alpheus sp. and Athanas sp. in shrimps, and Asthenognathus sp. in crab. Of the species collected in the present study, Ogyrides orientalis (Stimpson, 1860) in shrimp, and Acmaeopleura balssi Shen, 1932 and Tritodynamia horvathi Nobili, 1905 in crabs are rare species in the western coast of South Korea.

The sp%pl null mutant was constructed to study the function of fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe spThp1, which is homologous to budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae THP1. Tetrad analysis showed that the spThp1 is not essential for vegetative growth. The spThp1 null mutant also showed no massive poly(A)+ RNA export defect. However, spThp1 null is genetically associated with spMex67 null. These results suggest that spThp1 is involved in mRNA export out of the nucleus.

The purpose of this study was to identify fungi that degrade product value during the storage and distribution of confectionery products, and to investigate the antifungal effect of organic acid and UV-C treatments on high carbohydrate products. Fungi isolated from spoiled high carbohydrate confectionery were identified as Wallemia sp., Aspergillus sp-1 and Aspergillus sp-2 depending on homologies with ITS1 and ITS4 sequences. The isolated fungi were assayed for antifungal activity by treatment with acetic acid, citric acid, lactic acid or maleic acid. As a result, it was confirmed that the growth of Wallemia sp. and Aspergillus sp-2 was suppressed by treatment with 0.2 M and 0.35 M acetic acid, respectively. In addition, as a result of confirming the antifungal effect according to the UV-C irradiation time, the growth inhibitory effects of Wallemia sp. and Aspergillus sp-2 were shown in irradiation for 30 min and the growth inhibitory effect of Aspergillus sp-1 was shown in irradiation for 40 min. The result of the sensory evaluation of the untreated and 0.35 M acetic acid-treated high carbohydrate confectionery, there were not significant changes in taste, color, abnormal taste, hardness and texture, but there were significant differences in sour taste and smell. As a result of the above study, the effect of inhibiting fungi growth on the product by treatment with organic acid and UV-C irradiation was confirmed, and it is expected to be used in confectionery that were concerned about the occurrence of fungi in the distribution process.

DNA restriction fragment length polymorphisms(RFLPs) were used for the classification of 22 leading silkworm races and wild silkworm, Bombyx mandarina. A genomic DNA library from silkworm was partially constructed and was prescreened to evaluate the selected DNA probes. Three DNA probes (SP1-13, SP1-28, 10-42) were selected to determine the polymorphism between silkworm races. As a result, high polymorphism with the probe SP1-28, moderate polymorphism with SP1-13 and monomorphism with 10-42 were obse-rbed.

The aim of this work was to investigate the characterization and sequence of catechol 2,3-dioxygenase isolated from Delfia sp. JK-2, which could utilize aniline as sole carbon, nitrogen and energy source. In initial experiments, several characteristics of C2,3O separated with ammonium sulfate precipitation, DEAE-sepharose were investigated. Specific activity of C2,3O was approximately 4.72 unit/mg. C2,3O demonstrated its enzyme activity to other substrates, catechol and 4-methylcatechol. The optimum temperature of C2,3O was $$Cu^{2+}$^{\circ}C$, and the optimal pH was approximately 8. Metal ions such as $Ag^{+}$, $Hg^{+}$, and $Cu^{2+}$ showed inhibitory effect on the activity of C2,3O. Molecular weight of the enzyme was determined to approximately 35 kDa by SDS-PAGE. N-terminal amino acid sequence of C2,3O was analyzed as $^{1}MGVMRIG-HASLKVMDMDA- AVRHYENV^{26}$, and exhibited high sequence homology with that of C2,30 from Pseudomonas sp. AW-2, Comamonas sp. JS765, Comamonas testosteroni and Burkholderia sp. RPO07. PCR product was amplified with the primers derived from N-terminal amino acid sequence. In this work, we found that the amino acid sequence of Delftia sp. JK-2 showed high sequence homology of C2,3O from Pseudomonas sp. AW-2 (100%) and Comamonas sp. JS765 (97%).
