Population ecology of Palmaria palmata is described from the intertidal zone of Digby Neck and adjacent islands of Nova Scotia. The primary objectives were: to evaluate the difference in habitat specialization and population structure of P. palmata between harvest and non-harvest shores, and to characterize differences in thallus structure and frond sizes between epilithic and epiphytic populations. Harvest shores were gently sloping boulder fields with boulders typically about 0.5-1.0 m with dense cover of P. palmata on many of the rocks. Non-harvest shores (with or without P. palmata) consisted of boulders that were smaller or larger than harvest shores, or bedrock; when P. palmata was present on nonharvest sites it was typically epiphytic on other algae (e.g., Fucus spp., Mastocarpus stellatus, Devaleraea ramentacea). Harvestable epiphytic populations occurred only in high current areas. While there was little difference in average cover of P. palmata harvest and non-harvest shores ($31.2{\pm}13.7%$ vs. $19.4{\pm}7.3%$, mean ${\pm}$ standard deviation [SD]), the cover of P. palmata on harvest shores was highly skewed such that individual boulders often had >90% cover while adjacent rocks had little. Frond length of large fronds was greater on harvested shores, and mean frond density ($g\;m^{-2}$) was three times higher than the mean density on the non-harvested shores. Frond lengths of entire epiphytic and epilithic frond complements of 119 thalli from harvest beaches showed no difference in mean size of the largest fronds, and no difference in frond number per holdfast when epiphytic and epilithic thalli were compared.

This study was investigated the chemical composition from Syneilesis palmata essential oil and the tendency of variation of the sesquiterpene compounds according to the harvesting time. The essential oils obtained by hydro distillation from the aerial parts of Syneilesis palmata were analyzed by GC and GC-MS. Ninety-eight compounds consisting of 9 aliphatic hydrocarbons, 17 sesquiterpene hydrocarbons, 11 aliphatic aldehydes, 1 terpene aldehyde, 8 aliphatic alcohols, 4 monoterpene alcohols, 16 sesquiterpene alcohols, 3 diterpene alcohols, 6 ketones, 11 esters, 8 oxides and epoxides, 3 acids and 1 miscellaneous one were identified from the oil. Spathulenol (22.33%) was the most abundant compound, followed by ${\beta}$- caryophyllene (6.23%), germacrene D (5.57%), longipinane (4.10%), and epiglobulol (3.65%). The volatile composition of Syneilesis palmata was characterized by higher contents of sesquiterpene compounds, especially sesquiterpene alcohols. The total content of 13 sesquiterpene compounds was decreased significantly from 2010 to 2012. ${\alpha}$-Caryophyllene, ${\beta}$-bisabolene, elemol, germacrene D, ${\beta}$-zingiberene, longipinane, and ${\beta}$-caryophyllene alcohol contents decreased, while ${\beta}$-bisabolol content increased during 3 years. The ecological responses to recent climate change may be influenced in the chemical components of natural plant terpenoids.

A newly naturalized plant, Viola palmata L., was found in Uljin-gun, Changwon-si, and Yangsan-si. It belongs to the subsect. Boreali-Americanae (W. Becker) Gil-Ad of the sect. Nosphinium W. Becker, which is known to be from North America, with subsequent introduction into Europe. In Korea, this species is considered to have been introduced by freight transportation through the port of Busan, after which its distribution area expanded. We propose the new Korean name 'Chang-won-je-bi-kkot' based on the location at which it was initially collected in Korea. We also provide descriptions of the morphological characters along with photographs, illustrations, and a distribution map of Viola palmata.

Syneilesis palmata (SP) is a traditional medicinal plant. SP has been reported to have anti-inflammatory, anticancer, and anti-human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) activities. However, there is currently no research available on the immunostimulatory activity of SP. Therefore, in this study, we report that S. palmata leaves (SPL) activate macrophages. Increased secretion of both immunostimulatory mediators and phagocytic activity was observed in SPL-treated RAW264.7 cells. However, this effect was reversed by the inhibition of TLR2/4. In addition, inhibition of p38 decreased the secretion of immunostimulatory mediators induced by SPL, and inhibition of TLR2/4 decreased the phosphorylation of p38 induced by SPL. SPL augmented p62/SQSTM1 and LC3-II expression. The increase in protein levels of p62/SQSTM1 and LC3-II induced by SPL was decreased by the inhibition of TLR2/4. The results obtained from this study suggest that SPL activates macrophages via TLR2/4-dependent p38 activation and induces autophagy in macrophages via TLR2/4 stimulation.

Two new species of Martensia (Delesseriaceae, Rhodophyta) are described from Jeju Island, Korea. Martensia palmata sp. nov. is characterized by the following traits: more or less linearly elongated lobes arising from the distal margin of the flabellate membranous section; intact latticework with coarse and loose mesh; numerous spine-like projections on the leading margin of the latticework; tetrasporangia produced in sori along the entire blade; spermatangia borne in sori on the membranous section and the longitudinal lamellae of the latticework; and cystocarps borne on the margins of the membranous section. Martensia projecta sp. nov. has the following characteristics: subdichotomously furcated blades, with terminal segments slightly attenuated toward the apex; blades with uneven surfaces; basal parts with a multi-layered parenchymatous construction; small and poorlydefined latticework; tetrasporangia and spermatangia produced in sori on the membranous section; and cystocarps borne on the marginal surfaces of the blades. The existence of M. projecta sp. nov. supports the proposal that the genus Opephyllum Schmitz in Schmitz et Hauptfleisch should be assigned to the genus Martensia.

A mathematical model of the commercial harvest of Palmaria palmata (Dulse) is presented based on a logistic model and field data collected on Digby Neck, Nova Scotia from 14 harvested shores during May to August, 2010. Field observations used to estimate model parameters included cover of Dulse before and after harvest from Dulse dominated boulders for which surface area was estimated, and from which fresh biomass of harvested Dulse was weighed. Over all the surveys the average harvest fraction was about 50%, and the total resource was about $1,600g\;m^{-2}$. With growth rates in excess of 4% per day and a 50% harvest of the standing crop each month, the model suggests that the Dulse resource is sustainable at current harvest levels.

Syneilesis palmata (SP) has been used as a traditional medicinal plant and vegetable. SP was reported to exert pharmacological activities such as anti-inflammation, anti-cancer, and anti-HIV. However, there are no studies on the immunostimulatory activity of SP. Thus, in this study, we report that S. palmata leaves (SPL) induce the activation of macrophages. An increase in both secretions of immunostimulatory mediators and phagocytotic activity was observed in SPL-treated RAW264.7 cells. However, this was reversed by inhibition of TLR2/4. In addition, the p38 inhibition reduced the SPL-mediated secretion of immunostimulatory mediators, and the SPL-mediated p38 activation was blocked by the TLR2/4 inhibition. SPL augmented both p62/SQSTM1 and LC3-II. TLR2/4 inhibition blocked the SPL-mediated increase of p62/SQSTM1 and LC3-II. These findings indicate that SPL may activate macrophages through TLR2/4-dependent p38 activation and activate autophagy through TLR2/4 stimulation.

기능성식품 소재를 개발하기 위한 연구의 일환으로 야생 산채류인 우산나물의 지상부와 뿌리 추출물에 대한 플라보노이드와 폴리페놀 화합물 함량 그리고 생리활성 효과를 측정하였다. 플라보노이드는 지상부 에탄올 추출물이 31.72 mg/g으로 가장 많았으며, 폴리페놀은 뿌리의 에탄올 추출물에서 68.11 mg/g으로 가장 높았다. Xanthine oxidase에 대한 저해 효과를 측정한 결과 1.0 mg/mL의 농도에서 지상부 물 추출물과 뿌리의 에탄올 추출물 모두 98% 이상의 저해율을 보였으며, tyrosinase 저해는 뿌리 에탄올 추출물에서만 9.33%의 저해효과를 나타내었다. 우산나물 뿌리의 에탄올 추출물은 pH 1.2의 조건에서 70.89%의 아질산염 소거능을 보였으며, SOD 유사활성능도 13.06%의 활성을 나타내었다. 또한 전자공여능에서도 뿌리 에탄올 추출물이 98.58%로 천연항산화제인 ascorbic acid보다 높은 활성을 보였다. 이상의 결과 우산나물 뿌리의 에탄올 추출물의 폴리페놀 함량이 가장 높았고, tyrosinase 저해, 아질산염 소거, SOD 유사활성 및 전자공여능이 가장 우수하였다. 우산나물 뿌리의 물 추출물은 에탄올 추출물보다는 활성이 낮았으나 우산나물 지상부 추출물보다 높게 분석되었으며, xanthine oxidase 저해율이 가장 높았다. 본 실험결과 우산나물은 우수한 항산화 활성을 지닌 기능성식품 소재임을 확인할 수 있었으며, 식용으로 사용하고 있는 어린순 이외에 뿌리에도 다량의 폴리페놀을 함유하며, 우수한 생리활성 효과를 나타내므로 이를 항산화 활성을 지닌 기능성 건강식품 등의 재료로 활용할 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

The chromatographic separation of the MeOH extract from the aerial parts of Syneilesis palmata led to the isolation of a new sesquiterpene glycoside 4, together with four known compounds. Their structures were characterized to be 4$\beta$,5$\beta$-epoxy-caryophill-8,(15)-ene (1), 3$\beta$­hydroxy-gultin-5-ene (2), 4$\alpha$,5$\beta$-dihydroxy-caryophill-8,(15)-ene (3), (-)-oplopan-4-one-10-$\alpha$-O­$\beta$-D-glucose (4) and 3-hexenyl-1-O-$\beta$-D-glucopyranose (5), based on spectroscopic and chemical methods. Compound 2 showed moderate cytotoxicity against five human tumor cell lines in vitro with its EDso values ranging from 5.90-1 0.83 $\mu$g/mL.

Palmaria palmata was integrated with Atlantic halibut Hippoglossus hippoglossus on a commercial farm for one year starting in November, with a temperature range of 0.4 to $19.1^{\circ}C$. The seaweed was grown in nine plastic mesh cages (each $1.25m^3$ volume) suspended in a concrete sump tank ($46m^3$) in each of three recirculating systems. Two tanks received effluent water from tanks stocked with halibut, and the third received ambient seawater serving as a control. Thalli were tumbled by continuous aeration, and held under a constant photoperiod of 16 : 8 (L : D). Palmaria stocking density was $2.95kg\;m^{-3}$ initially, increasing to $9.85kg\;m^{-3}$ after a year. Specific growth rate was highest from April to June (8.0 to $9.0^{\circ}C$), 1.1% $d^{-1}$ in the halibut effluent and 0.8% $d^{-1}$ in the control, but declined to zero or less than zero above $14^{\circ}C$. Total tissue nitrogen of Palmaria in effluent water was 4.2 to 4.4% DW from January to October, whereas tissue N in the control system declined to 3.0-3.6% DW from April to October. Tissue carbon was independent of seawater source at 39.9% DW. Estimated tank space required by Palmaria for 50% removal of the nitrogen excreted by 100 t of halibut during winter is about 29,000 to $38,000m^2$, ten times the area required for halibut culture. Fifty percent removal of carbon from the same system requires 7,200 to $9,800m^2$ cultivation area. Integration of P. palmata with Atlantic halibut is feasible below $10^{\circ}C$, but is impractical during summer months due to disintegration of thalli associated with reproductive maturation.
