The carcass characteristics and composition of both male and female commercial broiler chickens (CB) and the red jungle fowl (RJF) were compared at a common body weight of $800{\pm}25.6g$. The RJF and CB were 133 and 17 d of age, respectively, when they reached 800 g. The yields of breast and thigh portions and their muscle to bone ratios were higher for RJF as compared to CB. On the other hand, the latter had significantly greater hearts, livers and gizzards. The weights of the whole thigh and drumstick, and their muscles were lower in females than males. The CB had more abdominal fat than RJF. While sex had no significant effect on the absolute weights of abdominal fats in CB, the female RJF were fatter than their male counterparts. The fat and cholesterol contents of the breast and leg muscles of CB were significantly higher than those of RJF. The opposite was noted for protein content of both muscles. The effect of sex on fat and cholesterol contents varied according to muscle type. Comparison of CB and RJF at a common body weight suggested that the rate of development of body components have changed concomitantly with selection for rapid growth in the former.

Equal number of red jungle fowl (JF) and commercial broiler chickens (CB), raised in battery cages, were provided a single complete diet (control) or a choice of a complete diet, ground corn and ground soybean from 21 to 56 days of age. There were significant genotype ${\times}$ feeding regimen interactions for several traits measured suggesting CB and JF responded differently to the two feeding regimens. The single fed CB had better growth and feed conversion ratios (FCR) than those under choice feeding. However, the body weight and FCR of JF were not affected by feeding regimen. While the single fed and choice-fed JF consumed similar amount of protein during days 21 to 55, the protein intake of the choice-fed CB was lower than the control. From days 21 to 55, irrespective of genotype, choice-fed chicks consumed less energy than their single fed counterparts. Regardless of genotype, the trend in the proportion of each feed consumed was similar with complete diet>corn>soybean. In conclusion, while choice-fed JF were capable to select nutrient necessary for maximum growth, choice feeding was detrimental to growth and feed conversion ratio in CB.

The abnormal female fowl (Arbor Acres broiler) of 40-day-old, which was polymelia with polydactyly was observed macroscopically and radiographically. An extra pelvic limb was attached at the left pelvic region. The extra pelvic limb consisted of an underdeveloped and malformed Os coxae like bone, femur like bone, tibia and fibula like bones, tarsal and metatarsal like bones, and five digits. The tarsal bones of two normal pelvic limbs and one extra pelvic limb were not fused with tibia and metatarsal bones respectively. The metatarsus of extra pelvic limb consisted of a single bone derived from several components. In a case of normal, first metatarsal bone remains independent. However in this case. all of metatarsal bones were fused. The extra pelvic limb was polydactyly. The digits consisted of the first and extra digit of three. the second and third of four. and the fourth of five phalanges. In each toe the last phalanx was pointed and formed the claw. The first and the second digits were polyphalangia [hyperphalangia]. The extra digit was microdactylia and brachydactyly.

This study was conducted in Jeju Island to find the effects of livestock manure application on the changes in soil salt concentration and $NO_3-N$ contents. Soil samples were collected from Goojua-Tong (volcanic ash soil) and Aewol-Tong(non-volcanic ash soil) to 50 cm depth and were mixed with livestock manure to 20 cm depth in PVC container(30 cm diameter, 1 m height). Animal manures of cattle, pig, and fowl were adjusted to 0, 50, 100,150 ton/ha. Animal manure applications increased the salt concentrations in soil. The salt concentration was increased as the fowl manure amount was increased The effects were larger in order of fowl manure > cattle manure $\fallingdotseq$ pig manure. $NO_3-N$ contents in soil showed a sharp increase by applications of fowl manure, but the increase was slow when the cattle and pig manures were applied. In volcanic ash soil, there was no change in phosphate contents by application of animal manures, but the phosphate contents increased in non-volcanic ash soil with the application of animal manure, especially by fowl manure.

The present study was carried out to evaluate the effects of organic liquid fertilizer (OLFs) fertigation on the growth and fruit quality of hot pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) cv. 'Nokkwang (Seminis Korea)'. Treatments were given with control (chemical feritilzer), OLF I(fowl dropping : fish meal : soybean meal, 2:1:1), OLF II(fowl dropping : bone meal : soybean meal, 2:1:1), OLF III(fowl dropping : bone meal, 1:1), and OLF IV(fowl dropping : rice bran : soybean meal, 2:1:1). The composition ratio of OLF based on weight to weight. The pH and EC of OLFs according to different material and compositions ranged from 6.5 to 6.8, and from 2.91 to $3.69dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$, respectively. The C/N ratio was the highest as 5.75 in OLF Ⅳ, and there was no difference among the treatments in C/N ratio of the exception of OLF IV. In OLF IV total fruit weight was the highest as 1,558g per plant and total fruit number increased as 23.7% compared to control. The content of capsaicin in the ripened pepper increased with OLF I and II treatments, and decreased with OLF III and IV treatments compared to control of $662mg{\cdot}kg^{-1}$, but the soluble solid content was the highest with OLF IV treatment as $10.0^{\circ}Brix$.

연산오골계의 위장관에 존재하는 somatostatin cell의 분포상태와 출현빈도를 알아보기 위해 면역조직화학적 방법을 이용하여 광학현미경적으로 관찰하였던 바 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. Somatostatin cell은 유문부에 밀집하여 출현하였으며, 그 다음으로 선위의 복합선에서 다수가 관찰되었다. 그리고 십이지장에는 소수가, 공장과 근위에는 드물게 분포하였으며, 회장 맹장 및 직장에서는 관찰되지 않았다. 또한 somatostatin cell은 부위에 따라 그 분포양상의 차이가 인정되었다.

The result of application of the organic manure obtained from livestocks fed with BLCSs in the red pepper under structure were as follow. The no. of fruit. fruit weight. fruit length. fruit width. and sugar content of red pepper treated with dong of fowl(BLCS) were higher, also. The contents of total N, P2O5, K2O, CaO, MgO, and cap-saicin in the red pepper fruit of treated with Dung of fowl(BLCS) were the highest, and the second was cattle dropping(BLCS). The contents of OM, P2O5, K, Ca, Mg, and CEC of soil treated with microorganism were the highest in the cattle dropping(BLCS) in any other plots, however. In general, effect of cattle manure fed with BLCS on the red pepper yield and microbial activity were higher than cattle manure did not feed BLCS.
