Aster spathulifolius Maxim. is belongs to the Asteraceae family which is distributed only in Korea and Japan. It is recognize as a traditionally medicinal plants and economically valuable in ornamental field. However, among the Asteraceae family, the Aster genus, which is lacks in genomic resources and information of molecular function. Therefore, we used high throughput RNA-sequencing transcriptome data of the A. spathulifolius to know molecular level function. DeNovo assembly produced 98,660 unigene with N50 value 1126 bp. Unigenes was performed to analyses the functional annotation against NCBI database like plant database of nucleotide (Nt) and non-redundant protein (Nr), Pfam, Uniprot, KEGG and Transcriptional factor (TF). In addition, Distribution of SSR markers also analyzed for future perfectives. Further, Comparing with other two Asteraceae family species like, Karelinia caspica and Chrysanthemum morifolium to the A. spathulifolius shows the number of gene that regulated in internal and external stress respectively salt-tolerant and heat and drought stress to understand the molecular basis related to the different environments stress.

This study was conducted to develop a set of EST-SSR marker for the purity test of commercial F1 hybrid cultivars in the watermelon. A total of 353 EST-SSR were selected and tested on seven F1 cultivars and their 11 parental lines achieved from NH Seeds Inc., Korea. Among tested 96 primer sets, WMU0056 for 'Orange', WMU0400 for 'Heukbo', WMU0056 and WMU0400 for 'Sindong', and WMU0056 and WMU0400 for 'Serona' revealed polymorphisms between the parental lines and heterozygosity from these F1 cultivers. Of 122 primer sets tested for 'Haedong', WMU0056, WMU0400, WMU0580, WMU1211, WMU4136, and WMU448 showed polymorphisms that were appropriate for the F1 purity test. WMU0056 and WMU0400 can be useful for 'Haedong', as well. Relatively low polymorphisms between parental lines were detected for 'Kulnara'(5%) and 'Hwangpea'(2%), and therefore, all 353 primer sets were tested on these cultivars. As the result, WMU5339 and WMU7003 were found to be useful for the F1 purity test in 'Kulnara' and 'Hwangpea', respectively. Using these EST-SSR markers developed by ICuGI, hybridity of the seeds for four F1 cultivars produced from farmers was evaluated, and levels of the F1 purity higher than 97.5% was observed from all seed populations. Our results indicated that the watermelon EST-SSR marker information posted in ICuGI could be utilized for developing codomiant and locus-specific markers that are highly effective for the F1 purity test.

Bakanae disease is one of the most serious and oldest problems of rice production, which was first described in 1828 in Japan. This disease has also been identified in Asia, Africa, North America, and Italy. Germinating rice seeds in seed boxes for mechanical transplantation has caused many problems associated with diseases, including bakanae disease. Bakanae disease has become a serious problem in the breeding of hybrid rice, which involves the increased use of raising plants in seed beds. The indica rice variety Shingwang was selected as resistant donor to bakanae disease. One hundred sixty nine NILs, YR28297 ($BC_6F_4$) generated by five backcrosses of Shingwang with the genetic background of susceptible japonica variety, Ilpum were used for QTL analysis. Rice bakanae disease pathogen, CF283, was mainly used in this study and inoculation and evaluation of bakanae disease was performed with the method of the large-scale screening method developed by Kim et al. (2014). SSR markers evenly distributed in the entire rice chromosomes were selected from the Gramene database (http://www.gramene.org), and the polymorphic markers were used for frame mapping of a $BC_5F_5$ resistant line. Here, we developed 168 near-isogenic rice lines (NILs, $BC_6F_4$) to locate a QTL for resistance against bakanae disease. The lines were derived from a cross between Shingwang, a highly resistant variety (indica), and Ilpum, a highly susceptible variety (japonica). The 24 markers representing the Shingwang allele in a bakanae disease-resistant NIL, YR24982-9-1 (parental line of the $BC_6F_4$ NILs), were located on chromosome 1, 2, 7, 8, 10, 11, and 12. Single marker analysis using an SSR marker, RM9, showed that a major QTL was located on chromosome 1. The QTL explained 65 % of the total phenotype variation in $BC_6F_4$ NILs. The major QTL designated qBK1 was mapped in 91 kb region between InDel15 and InDel21. The identification of qBK1 and the closely linked SSR marker, InDel18, could be useful for improving rice bakanae disease resistance in marker-assisted breeding.

This study was carried out to select DNA markers closely linked to brown planthopper (BPH) resistance gene originated from a rice cultivar 'Cheongcheong­byeo'. For the mapping of resistant gene to BPH, a doubled-haploid (DH) population was developed by anther culture of $F_1$ plants from a cross 'Cheongcheong­byeo/Nagdongbyeo'. In BPH bioassay and marker screen­ing for the DH population, the segregation of resistant and susceptible plants to BPH fitted to a 1:1 ratio. A total of 310 RAPDs of 520 markers showed polymorphism in parental survey using 'Cheongcheongbyeo' and 'Nag­dongbyeo'. In the analysis of relationship between BPH resistance and marker pattern for 40 DH lines, the OPE16 produced a specific dominant fragment, 700 bp, which was closely linked with BPH resistance gene of 'Cheong­cheongbyeo'. Based on the linkage analysis using 7 markers, BPH resistance of 'Cheongcheongbyeo' was mapped on chromosome 12, which was closely linked with $OPE16_{700}$ at a distance of 4.6 cM.

Carrot ($Daucus$ $carota$ L. var. $sativa$) is one of the most widely used crops in the world. Moreover it is an important crop because of its high content of ${\beta}$-carotene, well-known as the precursor of vitamin A carotenoid. However, seed-hair which is generated in epidermal cell of seeds inhibits absorption and germination. For that reason, carrot seeds are commercialized after mechanical hair removal process. To overcome such cumbersome weaknesses, new breeding program for developing hairless-seed carrot cultivar has been needed. Therefore, in this study, cDNA libraries from seeds of short-hair seed phenotype CT-ATR615 OP 666-13line and hairy seed CT-ATR615 OP-CK1-9 line were constructed and expression patterns related to generation of seed-hair were analyzed by comparison of EST sequences. Differential EST sequence results between two lines were classified into FunCat functional categories based on the results of BlastX search. Higher expression quantities belonging to metabolic category were shown on short-hair seed line than hairy-seed one. Differential expression quantities between those two lines in the protein folding and stabilization, subcellular localization categories were supposed to contribute variously on the generation of seed-hair. We confirmed 50 and 59 SSR sites, and 2 SNP sites by analyzing EST sequences in two lines; thereafter, we designed SNP and SSR primer sets from these EST sequence information as a molecular marker. These markers are thought to be used in research of molecular markers for classification of carrot family and related to various traits, as well as seed-hair characteristic.

Background: Panax ginseng, the most famous medicinal herb, has a highly duplicated genome structure. However, the genome duplication of P. ginseng has not been characterized at the sequence level. Multiple band patterns have been consistently observed during the development of DNA markers using unique sequences in P. ginseng. Methods: We compared the sequences of multiple bands derived from unique expressed sequence tagsimple sequence repeat (EST-SSR) markers to investigate the sequence level genome duplication. Results: Reamplification and sequencing of the individual bands revealed that, for each marker, two bands around the expected size were genuine amplicons derived from two paralogous loci. In each case, one of the two bands was polymorphic, showing different allelic forms among nine ginseng cultivars, whereas the other band was usually monomorphic. Sequences derived from the two loci showed a high similarity, including the same primer-binding site, but each locus could be distinguished based on SSR number variations and additional single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) or InDels. A locus-specific marker designed from the SNP site between the paralogous loci produced a single band that also showed clear polymorphism among ginseng cultivars. Conclusion: Our data imply that the recent genome duplication has resulted in two highly similar paralogous regions in the ginseng genome. The two paralogous sequences could be differentiated by large SSR number variations and one or two additional SNPs or InDels in every 100 bp of genic region, which can serve as a reliable identifier for each locus.

An introgression line, WH79006 was produced from a single plant from $BC_5F_3$ families from a cross between Hwaseongbyeo used as a recurrent parent and O. minuta (BBCC, Ace. No. 101154) as a donor parent, which was subsequently self-pollinated for three generations. WH79006 resembled the O. sativa parent, Hwaseongbyeo. However it differed from Hwaseongbyeo in several traits including days to heading, culm length, grain size, spikelets per panicle and fertility. These differences in the traits between WH79006 and Hwaseongbyeo can be attributed to the O. minuta introgressions. To detect the introgressions, 294 SSR markers of known chromosomal position have been used. At least, 28 introgressed chromosomal segments have been identified using SSR markers and they map to all chromosomes except chromosome 2. The size of the introgressed segments ranged from 4 to 35cM. A QTL related to culm length was detected using 75 $F_2$ plants from the Hwaseongbyeo/WH79006 cross. This QTL, cl6 located on chromosome 6 explained $9.6\%$ of the total phenotypic variation in the population. This QTL has not been detected in the previous QTL studies between Oryza sativa cultivars, indicating potentially novel alleles from O. minutan.

Rice varieties with suitable flour-making quality are required to promote rice processed-food industry and boost rice consumption in Korea. 'Namil (SA)-flo1' is an advanced mutant line with floury endosperm which shows good flour-making quality under dry-milling process. Genetic analysis was carried out to localize the chromosomal region responsible for the floury endosperm of 'Namil (SA)- flo1'. By using 94 F2 progenies, which were derived from 'Namil (SA)-flo1' ${\times}$ 'Milyang 23', floury grains percentage was investigated as phenotypic data, and genotyping was conducted with 54 SSR markers. Association analysis showed that the target genetic region for floury endosperm is on middle-low region of chromosome 5. Through further association analysis with increased number of SSR markers on chromosome 5, we found that genotypic variation in RM164 explains 79.7% of the variation in floury grains percentage of F2:3 seeds. The floury endosperm locus was localized on 17.7-20.7 Mbp region of chromosome 5 and will be further analyzed for fine mapping and gene identification.

Up to 35% of the rice genome consists of various kinds of transposons, and CACTA and MITE are two of the major class 2 DNA transposons in the genome. We have employed the consensus sequences of Rim2/Hipa CACTA, Stowaway MITE Pangrangja, and Tourist MITE Ditto for transposon display (TD) analysis to locate them on a genetic map, with 58 SSR markers used to anchor them. The TD analysis produced a high profile of the polymorphisms between the parental lines, Oryza sativa var. Gihobyeo/O. sativa var. Milyang, in intraspecific $F_{15}$ RIL lines, locating 368 markers of Rim2/Hipa CACTA, 78 markers of Tourist MITE Ditto, and 22 markers of Stowaway MITE Pangrangja. In the segregation analysis, non-parental segregating bands and segregation distortion bands were observed. The recombinant genetic map spans 3023.9 cM, with 5.7 cM the average distance between markers. The TD markers were distributed unequally on the chromosomes because many TD markers were located in pericentric chromosomal regions except in the cases of chromosomes 2, 3, 6 and 9. Although the number of transposon markers was not sufficient to include all rice class 2 transposons, the current map of CACTA and MITE transposons should provide new insight into the genome organization of rice since no previous DNA transposon map is available.

In this study, random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and simple sequence repeat (SSR) analyses were utilized for evaluation of genetic diversity of 34 Korean bred and introduced apple cultivars. Thirty-seven RAPD primers detected a total of 193 polymorphic bands (36.2%) with an average of 5.6. Twenty-six SSR markers generated a total of 112 alleles with an average 4.3 alleles per locus. Genetic diversity of 34 cultivars estimated by polymorphic information content (PIC) value ranged from 0.536 (CH03d12) to 0.952 (CH04c06) with an average of 0.843. By UPGMA (unweighted pair-group method arithmetic average) cluster analysis with 305 polymorphic bands, the apple cultivars were classified four groups by similarity index of 0.640. The 'Seokwang' was included in group I. Group II consisted of 12 cultivars which have 'Golden Delicious' in their pedigree, with the exception of 'Spur Earliblaze' and 'Jonathan'. Group III included 13 cultivars which have usually 'Fuji' in their ancestry and bud sport of 'Fuji' cultivars. Group IV consisted of 8 cultivars with 'Hongro', 'Gamhong', and 'Saenara'. Similarity values among the tested apple cultivars ranged from 0.529 to 0.987, and the average similarity value was 0.647. The similarity index was the highest (0.987) between 'Hwarang' and 'Danhong', and the lowest (0.529) between 'Seokwang' and 'Hwarang'. The genetic relationships among the 34 studied apple cultivars were basically consistent with the known pedigree.
