L. casei YIT9018에서 자연적으로 발생하는 Lac$^-$ mutant의 발생빈도와 이러한 변이주의 특성을 검토하였다. 보존균주로부터 spontaneous Lac$^-$ mutant의 발생은 MRS 배지에서 0.5%, 10% 환원탈지유에서 0.29%, pure Lac$^+$ colony로부터의 발생은 MRS 배지에서 0.25%, 10% 환원탈지유에서 0.1%의 빈도로 나타났다. 분리된 spontaneous mutant는 대부분이 Lac$^-$ mutant였고 가끔 Lac-Gal-도 나타났다. Lac$^-$ Gal$^+$ mutant는 배양 4일째부터 partial revertant가 출현하였으나 Lac$^-$ Gal$^-$는 전혀 나타나지 않았으며 Lac$^-$ mutant는 wild type보다 우유를 응고시키는데 더 많은 시간을 요하였다.

Lactose plasmid로 host chromosome에 도입시킨 S. lactis $KB_{21}$으로부터 spontaneous mutant와 자외선 처리로 lactose constutive mutant를 분리하였다. lactobionate를 탄소원으로 하는 배지에서 parent는 거의 생육하지 못하는 반면 mutant는 빠를 생육을 보임으로써 lactose constitutive mutant임을 확인하였다. Mutant의 $phospho-{\beta}-galactosidase$ activity는 parent의 약 $1.7{\sim}3.4$배를 나타내었다.

The "crescent-egg" a new spontaneous mutant was detected in a white egg strain k37. Studies were carried out the linkage analysis, to investigate phenotypic characteristics and biochemical analysis of haemolymph and ovarian protein. The mutant, ore was independent from 20 linkage groups P(2), Ze(3),L(4), oc(5), sn8), Ia(9), w-1(10), K(11), ch(13), U(14), bl(15), cts(16), bts(17), mln(18), nb(19), oh(20),Lan(21), or(22), tub(23) and Xan(27). The fertilization, hatchability and larval growth were not different from the those of normal eggs. The content and composition of yolk protein were similared to normal eggs. Scanning electron microscopy revealed the areal specific structure in dorsal region of egg-shell of cre mutant. Analysis of chorion protein by isoelectrofocusing(IEF), was resolved no difference in the composite of the chorion protein. We conclude that the egg mutant ere is expressed only in the egg-shape formation and region specific determination.

Wild-type V. vulnificus cannot grow using lactose as the sole carbon source or take up the sugar. However, prolonged culture of this species in media containing lactose as the sole carbon source leads to the generation of a spontaneous lactose-utilizing (LU) mutant. This mutant showed strong ${\beta}$-galactosidase activity, whereas the wild-type strain showed a barely detectable level of the activity. A mutant with a lesion in a gene homologous to the lacZ of E. coli in the bacterium no longer showed ${\beta}$-galactosidase activity or generated spontaneous LU mutants, suggesting that the lacZ homolog is responsible for the catabolism of lactose, but the expression of the gene and genes for transport of lactose is tightly regulated. Genetic analysis of spontaneous LU mutants showed that all the mutations occur in a lacI homolog, which is located downstream to the lacZ and putative ABC-type lac permease genes. Consistent with this, a genomic library clone containing the lad gene, when present in trans, made the spontaneous LU mutants no longer able to utilize lactose as the sole carbon source. Taken together with the observation that excessive amounts of exogenously supplemented possible catabolic products of lactose have negative effects on the growth and survivability of V. vulnificus, we suggest that V. vulnificus has evolved to carry a repressor that tightly regulates the expression of lacZ to keep the intracellular toxic catabolic intermediates at a sublethal level.

A new flue-cured tobacco mutant line BU 8832-85 was developed at Taegu Experiment Station, Korea Ginseng and Tobacco Research Institute in 1994. KF 8832-85 was resulted from a cross of flue-cured cultivars NC 95$\times$NC 2326, and developed by a pedigree system of breeding ; initial selection was made by plant type and resistance to bacterial wilt(BW) disease(heudomonas solanaceamm) in the F2 generation under the natural field conditions infested with the pathogen. One white flowered plant was occurred by spontaneous mutation in a certain line among the F3 generatioin while the others were pink. Six plants from the seeds by selfing were selected at the field infested with the pathogen among 240 populations with white flowering in the F4, KF 8832-85 was selected based on yield and leaf quality trials among 6 lines in Fs generation. BCF 8832-85 was compared with its Parent for certain agronomic and chemical characteristics at Taegu Experiment Station in 1993 and 1994. The results showed that KF 8832-85 have white flower, the stalk height was approximately that of NC 2326 but averaged about loom taller than NC 95. It produced ground suckers as much as NC 95, and did not breakdown leaf at the same as WC 2326. KF 8832-85 have high resistance to bacterial wilt disease. Yield of KF 8832-85 was 10 and 18% higher then that of NC 2326 and WC 95, respectively. Price per Kg was equal to that of NC 2326. The contents of nicotine and reducing sugar did not differ significantly from NC 95, while total nitrogen was significantly lower than NC 95. Therefore, the new mutant line is genetically stable for agronomic and chemical characteristics and provides a source of bacterial wilt disease resistance for use in breeding resistant flue-cured cultivars. Key words : Mutant line, White flower, Spontaneous mutation.

When plants are infected by plant pathogens, typical disease symptom termed lesion, appears in compatible interaction. Whereas, in incompatible interactions, only small speck of lesions are visible on the leaf surfaces. Hypersensitive response (HR) of plant which is the result of infection by incompatible pathogens, is a well known defense response inducing rapid cell death resulting in complete resistance. However, some rice mutants show spontaneous disease symptoms during the growth stages without interaction with pathogens. We investigated the spontaneous cell death mutant called Blast Lesion Mimic(BLM) generated by EMS mutation, on the relationship with the hypersensitive response as well as resistant characteristics. Accumulation of phenolic compounds were detected around the lesions as lesions develop on leaf surface. Activation of PR gene was detected before the lesion appeared, and that result indicates the defense-related response are started earlier than lesion formation. The BLM mutant showed resistant response to inoculation of Magnaporthe grisea KJ201 with which the wild type Hwacheong is totally susceptible. Informations on the formation of spontaneous lesions and detail analysis of lesion mimic mutants and related genes are very limited to date. It is really important to understand the phenomenon of the defense-related lesion formation for developing resistant cultivar for rice blast pathogens

세포들간의 응집 및 배양용기 표면에의 부착은 야생 점액 세균의 액체배양에 큰 장애물로 작용한다. 이러한 장애를 해결하기 위한 한 방안으로 야생 점액세균으로부터 자연적 분산 돌연변이 균주를 얻는 방법을 시도해 보았다. 실험 대상으로 사용한 균주 M. stipitatus KYC1001은 충남 계룡산의 토양에서 분리된 점액세균으로, 다른 점액세균들과 마찬가지로 액체배지 내에서 대부분의 세포들이 응집체를 형성하거나, 배양용기의 표면에 달라붙는다. 본 연구에서는 야생형 균주들이 세포응집체를 형성하거나 배양용기의 표면에 달라붙게 되는 반면 분산 돌연변이 세포들은 배지 내에 자유로이 떠돌아다니게 될 것이라는 특성을 이용하여, 배양액의 상등액만을 30일에 걸쳐 10회 계대 배양함으로서 분산되어 상등액에 존재할 자연적 분산 돌연변이 세포들을 농화 배양하였다. 그 결과, 액체배지에서 완전히 분산되어 성장하는 한 균주, KYC2001과 부분적으로 분산하여 성장하는 세 균주, KYC2002, 2003, 2004를 얻을 수 있었다.

To study the resistance mechanism of E. faecalis to LCB01-0371, several resistant mutants to LCB01-0371 or linezolid were isolated by step-wise selection. The frequency of spontaneous mutations resistant to LCB01-0371 was lower than that of linezolid in E. faecalis. The genetic variations in resistant mutants were analyzed by DNA sequencing of domain V of 23S rRNA in each mutant. The first-step mutant to LCB01-0371 had a G2576T point mutation in V domain of 23S rRNA. However, no resistant mutant to LCB01-0371 was isolated in second-step mutant selection.

Phenotypes of panicle, hull and seed of mutant rice (Oryza sativa L.) were characterized. Panicle mutants were classified in 4 groups with their internode length of main rachis, primary rachis, secondary rachis and pedicel. Hull and seed mutants were grouped into 12 based on their mutant characters in shape, size and color of seeds. These natural and spontaneous mutant collections showed distinct phenotypes to wild type rice. This might be useful for the identification of the functions of genetic factors in the Mendelian inheritance.

Genetic study of haploid organisms offers the advantage that mutant phenotypes are directly displayed, but has the disadvantage that strains carrying lethal mutations are not readily maintained. We describe an approach for generating and performing genetic analysis of diploid strains of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, which is normally haploid. First protocol utilizes self-mating diploid strains that will facilitate the genetic analysis of recessive lethal mutations by offering a convenient way to produce homozygous diploids in a single mating. Second protocol is designed to reduce the chance of contamination and the accumulation of spontaneous mutations for long-term storage of mutant strains. Third protocol for inducing the meiotic program is also included to produce haploid mutant strains following tetraploid genetic analysis. We discuss implication of self-fertile strains for the future of Chlamydomonas research.
