Jute is the principal coarse fiber for commercial production and use in Bangladesh. Therefore, the development of a high-yielding and environmental-stress tolerant jute variety would be beneficial for the agro economy of Bangladesh. Two molecular fingerprinting techniques, random-amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and amplified-fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) were applied on six jute samples. Two of them were cold-sensitive varieties and the remaining four were cold-tolerant accessions. RAPD and AFLP fingerprints were employed to generate polymorphism between the cold-sensitive varieties and cold-tolerant accessions because of their simplicity, and also because there is no available sequence information on jute. RAPD data were obtained by using 30 arbitrary oligonucleotide primers. Five primers were found to give polymorphism between the varieties that were tested. AFLP fingerprints were generated using 25 combinations of selective-amplification primers. Eight primer combinations gave the best results with 93 polymorphic fragments, and they were able to discriminate the two cold-sensitive and four cold-tolerant jute populations. A cluster analysis, based on the RAPD and AFLP fingerprint data, showed the population-specific grouping of individuals. This information could be useful later in marker-aided selection between the cold-sensitive varieties and cold-tolerant jute accessions.

Colletotrichum spp.는 광범위한 기주 범위를 갖는 다범성 균으로 각종 작물에 피해를 야기시키는 중요한 식물병원 진균이다. 최근 국내에서 널리 재배되고 있는 단감, 사과, 복숭아, 포도 등에 탄저병이 발생하여 많은 경제적 손실을 초래하고 있다. 탄저병 병원균의 경우 기존에는 주로 형태적 특성이나 배지상에서의 특성, 기주에 대한 병원성의 차이에 의존하여 분류를 해 왔다. 그러나 최근에는 병원균의 분류에 있어 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 분자생물학적 방법을 이용하고 있다. 최근에는 RAPD(ramdomly amplified polymorphic DNAs)와 RFLP(restriction fragment length polymorphism)의 장점만을 살린 AFLP(amplified fragment length polymorphism)기법이 유연관계 분석에 있어서 각광을 받고 있고 rDNA부위를 증폭하여 제한효소를 이용하여 다양성을 보는 방법이 많이 이용되고 있다. 이에 본 실험에서는 AFLP 기법 이용하여 단감나무에 탄저병을 일으키는 균들간에 유연관계를 밝혔다. AFLP결과에서 variation이 심하여 각각의 특징적인 band를 검출할 수 있었다. 특히 단감나무에 병해를 일으키는 탄저병 병원균 2개의 종이 복합적으로 관여하는 사실을 알 수 있었다.

본 연구는 전국에 분포하는 조릿대[Sasa borealis (Hack.) Makino & Shibata]의 12 개체군을 대상으로 유전다양성을 분석하고, 이러한 분석 결과를 식물지리학적인 해석을 통하여 기후변화와 같은 변화 요인을 객관적으로 측정하고 예측할 수 있는 방법을 제시하기 위해 수행되었다. AFLP (amplified fragment length polymorphism) 분석을 통한 유전다양성 조사 결과, 조릿대 개체군의 유전다양성(PPL = 37.2%, h = 0.143, I = 0.205)과 유전적 분화도($G_{ST}$= 0.324, ${\theta}^B$=0.395)는 비교적 높은 수준으로 나타났다. AMOVA (Analysis of molecular variance) 분석 결과에서도 전체 유전적 변이 중 47.7%가 개체군 간 변이에 의한 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 조릿대 개체군들의 유전다양성은 위도가 높아짐 따라 감소하는 것이 확인 되었으며, 이는 남방계 식물인 조릿대의 분포가 낮은 위도에서 높은 위도로 전파된 과정과 일치하는 것으로 해석할 수 있다. 따라서 식물 개체군의 AFLP 분석 결과를 위도 변화와 비교 분석함으로써 기후변화에 따른 분포 변화의 정도를 파악하고 주요 식물의 보전 전략을 세우는 데 필요한 정보를 제공할 수 있다.

Ocean warming can have significant negative impacts on population genetic diversity, local endemism and geographical distribution of a wide range of marine organisms. Thus, the identification of conservation units with high risk of extinction becomes an imperative task to assess, monitor, and manage marine biodiversity for policy-makers. Here, we surveyed population structure and genetic variation of the red seaweed Gracilaria vermiculophylla along the coast of China using genome-based amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) scanning. Regardless of analysis methods used, AFLP consistently revealed a south to north genetic isolation. Populations at the southern coast of China showed unique genetic variation and much greater allelic richness, heterozygosity, and average genetic diversity than the northern. In particular, we identified a geographical barrier that may hinder genetic exchange between the two lineages. Consequently, the characterized genetic lineage at the southern coast of China likely resulted from the interplay of post-glacial persistence of ancestral diversity, geographical isolation and local adaptation. In particular, the southern populations are indispensable components to explore evolutionary genetics and historical biogeography of G. vermiculophylla in the northwestern Pacific, and the unique diversity also has important conservation value in terms of projected climate warming.

폐가스 처리용 바이오필터의 핵심 요소 기술은 생촉매(미생물), 담체, 설계 운전 기술 및 진단 관리 기술이다. 특히, 바이오필터의 성능은 부하 조건과 바이오필터 내 미생물 군집 구조에 의해 영향을 받는다. 지금까지 바이오필터의 미생물 연구는 대부분 배양법을 기초로 하여 수행되어 왔으나, 최근에 보다 신속하고 정확하게 미생물 군집을 분석할 수 있는 방법들이 제시되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 생리적, 생화학적 및 분자생물학적 미생물 군집 분석 방법과 이를 활용한 바이오필터의 미생물 군집 특성을 조사한 연구사례를 소개하고, 미생물 군집 분석법의 바이오필터에 적용 가능성에 대해 고찰하였다. Community-level physiological profile 방법은 시료 중에 포함된 종속영양미생물의 탄소기질 이용능력을 기반으로 군집 특성을 조사하는 것이며, Phospholipid fatty acid analysis는 미생물 세포막 지방산을 분석하여 군집 특성을 조사하는 방법이다. 환경시료로부터 직접 추출한 DNA를 활용하는 분자생물학적 분석법에는 "partial community DNA analysis"와 "whole community DNA analysis"가 있다. 전자의 방법은 PCR 과정에 의해 증폭시킨 염기서열을 분석하는 것으로 ribosomal operon 유전자가 가장 많이 활용되었다. 이 방법은 다시 PCR fragment cloning 및 genetic fingerprinting으로 구분되며, genetic fingerprinting 방법으로는 denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis, terminal-restriction fragment length polymorphism, ribosomal intergenic spacer analysis 및 random amplified polymorphic DNA 방법으로 세분화된다. 추출된 전체 군집의 DNA를 분석하는 방법에는 total genomic cross-DNA hybridization, 총 추출 DNA의 열 변성/재결합 방법 및 밀도구배를 이용하여 추출한 DNA를 분획화하는 방법 등이 있다.

The availability of nucleotide sequences of the coat protein gene of Potato leafroll virus (PLRV) permitted the construction of DNA primers that were utilized for cDNA synthesis. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) products of a 487 bp. and approximately 500 bp DNA fragments were amplified from nucleic acid extracts of PLRV-infected tissue and strawberry mild yellow-edge (SMYE) diseased strawberry tissue, respectively. The amplified DNA fragments were further differentiated by hybridization analysis with a CDNA probe for the coat protein gene of PLRV and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis. These results suggest that a luteovirus is associated with the SMYE disease.

We used an amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) analysis, a novel PCR-based technique, to differentiate Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) of Korean races. The 6 strains of Xoo K1, K2, K3 races were tested with 81 AFLP primer combinations to identify the best selective primers. The primer combinations were selected according to their reproducibility, number of polymorphic bands and polymorphism detected among Xoo strains. 18 strains of Xoo K1, K2 and K3 races were analyzed with the selected combinations of primer set. Some primer combinations (Eco R I +1 / Mse I+1) could differentiate Xoo of Korean races that were not distinguished by other fingerprinting analysis. Thus AFLP fingerprinting permitted very fine discrimination among different races.

Cyanobacteria의 광합성 보조색소인 phycocyanin의 PC operon(cpc gene)을 PCR로 증폭하고, 제한효소로 처리하여 RFLP pattern을 비교하였다. Intergenic spacer sequence를 포함한 cpc gene은 실험에 사용한 cyanobacteria 균주 모두에게 증폭되었으며, 산물의 size는 약 700 bp였다. PCR산물을 5종의 제한효소로 처리한 결과 AluI, MspI, HaeIII는 같은 속내으ㅐ 균주간에 동일한 pattern을 나타내어 속 구분이 가능하였으며 CfoI은 Anabeana와 Synechocystis속의 균주간에 구별되는 양상을 나타내어 속내 균주 구별에 유용하였다. Restriction enzyme profile에 의한 phenogram에서 Anabeana, Chlorogloea, Synechyhocystis는 각각 하나의 cluster를 형성하여 cyanobacteria의 분류에 PC-IGS의 RFLP pattern이 유용함을 알 수 있었다.

This research applied and evaluated a polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) using cytochrome b gene to detect pork contamination in meatballs from local markets in Surabaya and Yogyakarta regions, Indonesia. To confirm the effectiveness and specificity of this fragment, thirty nine DNA samples from different meatball shops were isolated and amplified, and then the PCR amplicon was digested by BseDI restriction enzyme to detect the presence of pork in meatballs. BseDI restriction enzyme was able to cleave porcine cytochrome b gene into two fragments (131 bp and 228 bp). Testing the meatballs from the local market showed that nine of twenty meatball shops in Yogyakarta region were detected to have pork contamination, but there was no pork contamination in meatball shops in Surabaya region. In conclusion, specific PCR amplification of cytochrome b gen and cleaved by BseDI restriction enzymes seems to be a powerful technique for the identification of pork presence in meatball because of its simplicity, specificity and sensitivity. Furthermore, pork contamination intended for commercial products of sausage, nugget, steak and meat burger can be checked. The procedure is also much cheaper than other methods based on PCR, immunodiffusion and other techniques that need expensive equipment.

Soil is a dynamic biological system, in which it is difficult to determine the composition of microbial communities. Knowledge of microbial diversity and function in soils are limited because of the taxonomic and methodological limitations associated with studying the organisms. In this review, approaches to measure microbial diversity in soil were discussed. Research on soil microbes can be categorized as structural diversity, functional diversity and genetic diversity studies, and these include cultivation based and cultivation independent methods. Cultivation independent technique to evaluate soil structural diversity include different techniques such as Phospholipid Fatty Acids (PLFA) and Fatty Acid Methyl Ester (FAME) analysis. Carbon source utilization pattern of soil microorganisms by Community Level Physiological Profiling (CLPP), catabolic responses by Substrate Induced Respiration technique (SIR) and soil microbial enzyme activities are discussed. Genetic diversity of soil microorganisms using molecular techniques such as 16S rDNA analysis Denaturing Gradient Gel Electrophoresis (DGGE) / Temperature Gradient Gel Electrophoresis (TGGE), Terminal Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (T-RFLP), Single Strand Conformation Polymorphism (SSCP), Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP) / Amplified Ribosomal DNA Restriction Analysis (ARDRA) and Ribosomal Intergenic Spacer Analysis (RISA) are also discussed. The chapter ends with a final conclusion on the advantages and disadvantages of different techniques and advances in molecular techniques to study the soil microbial diversity.
