  • 식물의 이차대사산물은 곤충-식물 상호관계에서 중요한 역할을 한다. 식식성 곤충은 식물의 방어물질에 대처하는 다양한 전략을 가지고 있다. 광식성 곤충은 넓은 범위의 다양한 식물들을 섭식하고 그 해독 기작도 보다 복잡한데, 이는 많은 종류의 식물유래 화합물에 반응하는 경향이 있기 때문으로 보인다. 이와는 달리 협식성 곤충은 몇몇 유사한 식물에 국한되어 살아가며 보다 효율적인 적응 방식을 지니고 있을 것으로 여겨진다. 이러한 협식성 곤충의 적응은 식물의 방어물질에 대한 해독효소를 다량 생산하거나 방어물질 또는 그 대사산물을 격리하는 전략을 마련하였기 때문으로 보인다. 담배나방은 담배와 고추 등 주로 가지과의 몇몇 식물만을 가해하는 협식성 곤충이다. 담배나방의 기주식물 적응성을 이해한다면, 이 해충에 의한 작물의 피해를 줄이는 방법을 개발하는데 도움을 줄 수 있을 뿐만 아니라, 담배나방과 같은 협식성 곤충의 생리, 생태, 진화를 연구하는 데에도 중요한 단서를 제공할 것이다. 본 종설에서는 담배나방의 기주식물 범위, 유충과 기주식물의 상호작용, 그리고 기주식물에서 특이적으로 나오는 니코틴과 캡사이신에 대한 곤충의 반응과 해독 메카니즘을 중심으로, 지난 반세기 동안의 연구결과를 요약하고 앞으로의 전망을 제시하고자 한다.

  • Competitive coevolution models, often called host-parasite models, are searching models that imitate the biological coevolution that is a series of reciprocal changes in two competing species. The models are known to be an effective method of solving complex and dynamic problems such as game problems, neural network design problems and constraint satisfaction problems. However, previous models consider only ectoparasites that live on the outside of the host when designing the models, not considering endoparasites that live on the inside of the host. This has a limitation to exploiting some information. In this paper, we develop an artificial adaptation model simulating the process in which hosts coevolve with both ectoparasites and endoparasites. In the model, the endoparasites play important roles as follows. By means of them, we can keep the history on results of previous competition between hosts and parasites, and use endogeneous fitness, not exogeneous. Extensive experiments are carried out to show the coevolution phenomenon and to verify the performance of the proposed model. Nim game problems and neural network problems are used as test-bed problems. The results are reported in this paper.

  • 이 연구는 캐나다 밴쿠버에 거주하는 중국인과 한국인 이민자들의 사회문화적 적응과 생활양식을 파악하기 위한 것이다. 이 연구에서는 우선 캐나다의 이민정책을 개관하고, 1996년 인구센서스와 각종 통계자료를 활용하여 중국인 및 한국인 이민자의 증가추세를 분석하였다. 아울러 전화번호부에 등재된 김씨 성을 가진 한국인의 숫자를 활용하여 밴쿠버에 거주하는 한국인의 규모를 추정하는 작업도 시도되었다. 이 논문의 초점은 중국인과 한국인 이민자들의 적응형태를 설명하고, 화교사회와 한인사회의 사회문화적 특성을 파악하는데 맞추어져 있다. 이를 위해 소수민족 이민자의 적응형태가 현지사회에의 참여수준과 문화정체성의 강약에 의하여 네가지 범주로 나누어지는 분석틀이 제시되었다. 이 연구에서는 대부분의 중국인과 한국인 이민자들의 민족정체성이 강하며, 고유의 문화적인 전통과 생활양식을 유지하고 있는 것으로 확인되었다. 그러나 중국인들의 활발한 현지사회진출에 비해서 한국인 이민자들은 상대적으로 폐쇄적인 활동영역과 민족적 울타리를 유지하고 있는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 중국인들의 사회적 통합 및 문화정체성의 유지와 관련해서는 자발적 결사체의 역할이 강조되었다. 마지막으로, 이 논문에서는 중국인과 한국인들의 장기적인 문화변용의 전망에 관한 논의가 이루어졌다.

  • The influenza A virus is a highly infectious respiratory pathogen that sickens many people with respiratory disease annually. To prevent outbreaks of this viral infection, an understanding of the characteristics of virus-host interaction and development of an anti-viral agent is urgently needed. The influenza A virus can infect mammalian species including humans, pigs, horses and seals. Furthermore, this virus can switch hosts and form a novel lineage. This so-called zoonotic infection provides an opportunity for virus adaptation to the new host and leads to pandemics. Most influenza A viruses express proteins that antagonize the antiviral defense of the host cell. The non-structural protein 1 (NS1) of the influenza A virus is the most important viral regulatory factor controlling cellular processes to modulate host cell gene expression and double-stranded RNA (dsRNA)-mediated antiviral response. This review focuses on the influenza A virus NS1 protein and outlines current issues including the life cycle of the influenza A virus, structural characterization of the influenza A virus NS1, interaction between NS1 and host immune response factor, and design of inhibitors resistant to the influenza A virus.

  • The Asian cultural landscape is a mirrored ecosystem of great complexity, formed by the interaction of man and nature, coupled with a host of ecological processes. The human dependencies on and environmental adaptation of the bio-organisms and the surrounding landscape constitute the typical cultural landscape. Islands are a good example of a cultural landscape, and each mosaic pattern of marine and coastal ecosystems reflects bio-cultural diversity. Along with land-use patterns, wise use of biological organisms and indigenous knowledge has expanded to islands in the Asia-Pacific region in several ways (sea current and human impact, etc.). Loss in biodiversity and landscape diversity as well as cultural diversity owing to global warming and rapid urbanization are emerging issues for island ecosystems all over the world. In order to sustain the historical coexistence between man and natural systems, we ecologists must continue to search for a holistic solution for academic consilience. In this paper, I present the vision and practical characteristics of island ecology with a view toward the conservation of the traditional landscape and bio-cultural diversities in the seascape.

  • In the next generation wireless mobile network, various methods are studied to offer interworking and mobility between various radio networks. To offer these harmoniously, network adaptation methods based on IP is generalized, and specifications of host-based mobility method with Mobile IPv4 and Mobile IPv6 to offer IP's mobility are defined in IETF specially. However, it is insufficient to satisfy quality of service that should be offered in wireless mobile network environment. Alternatively studies about Network-Based Mobility of Proxy Mobile IPv4, Proxy Mobile IPv6 etc. are preceded. This paper presents optimum plan that can offer mobility in the next generation radio transfer communication network by comparing and analyzing IP mobility methods divided by Host-based Mobility and Network-based Mobility.

  • Host-pathogen interaction in rice bacterial blight pathosystem was analyzed for a better understanding of their relationship and recognition of stable pathogenicity among the populations of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae. A total number of 52 bacterial strains isolated from diseased leaf samples collected from 12 rice growing states and one Union Territory of India, were inoculated on 16 rice varieties, each possessing known genes for resistance. Analysis of variance revealed that the host genotypes(G) accounted for largest(78.4%) proportion of the total sum of squares(SS), followed by 16.5% due to the pathogen isolates(I) and 5.1% due to the $I{\times}G$ interactions. Application of the Additive Main effects and Multiplicative Interaction(AMMI) model revealed that the first two interaction principal component axes(IPCA) accounted for 66.8% and 21.5% of the interaction SS, respectively. The biplot generated using the isolate and genotypic scores of the first two IPCAs revealed groups of host genotypes and pathogen isolates falling into four sectors. A group of five isolates with high virulence, high absolute IPCA-1 scores, moderate IPCA-2 scores, low AMMI stability index '$D_i$' values and minimal deviations from additive main effects displayed in AMMI biplot as well as response plot, were identified as possessing stable pathogenicity across 16 host genotypes. The largest group of 27 isolates with low virulence, small IPCA-1 as well as IPCA-2 scores, low $D_i$ values and minimal deviations from additive main effect predictions, possessed stable pathogenicity for low virulence. The AMMI analysis and biplot display facilitated in a better understanding of the host-pathogen interaction, adaptability of pathogen isolates to specific host genotypes, identification of isolates showing stable pathogenicity and most discriminating host genotypes, which could be useful in location specific breeding programs aiming at deployment of resistant host genotypes in bacterial blight disease control strategies.

  • Mammalian cell cultures have been used extensively to produce proteins for therapeutic agent because of their ability to perform post-translational modification including glycosylation. To produce recombinant protein, many factors and parameter are considered such as media composition, host cell type, and culture process. In this study, recombinant human erythropoietin (rhEPO) producing cell line was established by using glutamine synthetase system. To reduce serum concentration in media, we compared direct adaptation with step adaptation. Cell growth was faster in step adaptation. In low-level serum media, there were insufficient glucose for cell growth. Thus, we added glucose in low-level serum media from 2 g/L to 4.5 g/L. Titer of rhEPO was higher than other conditions at 4.5 g/L of glucose. Additionally, N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA), 13-cis-retinal, and pluronic F-68 (PF-68) were added to enhance productivity in CHO cell cultures. In conclusion, we applied CHO cell producing rhEPO to low-level of serum in media using step-adaptation. Also, we confirmed positive effect of NMDA, 13-cis-retinal, and PF-68.

  • Salmonellosis is commonly associated with meat and poultry products, but an increasing number of Salmonella outbreaks have been attributed to contaminated vegetables and fruits. Enteric pathogens including Salmonella enterica spp. can colonize diverse produce and persist for a long time. Considering that fresh vegetables and fruits are usually consumed raw without heat treatments, Salmonella contamination may subsequently lead to serious human infections. In order to understand the underlying mechanism of Salmonella adaptation to produce, we investigated the transcriptomics of Salmonella in contact with green vegetables, namely cabbage and napa cabbage. Interestingly, Salmonella pathogenicity island (SPI)-1 genes, which are required for Salmonella invasion into host cells, were up-regulated upon contact with vegetables, suggesting that SPI-1 may be implicated in Salmonella colonization of plant tissues as well as animal tissues. Furthermore, Salmonella transcriptomic profiling revealed several genetic loci that showed significant changes in their expression in response to vegetables and were associated with bacterial adaptation to unfavorable niches, including STM14_0818 and STM14_0817 (speF/potE), STM14_0880 (nadA), STM14_1894 to STM14_1892 (fdnGHI), STM14_2006 (ogt), STM14_2269, and STM14_2513 to STM14_2523 (cbi operon). Here, we show that nadA was required for bacterial growth under nutrient-restricted conditions, while the other genes were required for bacterial invasion into host cells. The transcriptomes of Salmonella in contact with cabbage and napa cabbage provided insights into the comprehensive bacterial transcriptional response to produce and also suggested diverse virulence determinants relevant to Salmonella survival and adaptation.
