  • The nucleotide sequences of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions of the ribosomal DNA including the 5.8S ribosomal RNA gene (rDNA) have been determined for 11 species in order to analyze their intrageneric relationships. The total length of these sequences ranged from 530 nucleotides for Trichoderma reesei KCTC 1286 to 553 nucleotide for Trichoderma koningii IAM 12534. Generally speaking, the length of ITS1 region was about 30 nucleotides longer than that of the ITS2 region. Also, the sequences of 5.8S rDNA were more conserved in length and variation than those of ITS regions. Although the variable ITS sequences were often ambiguously aligned, the conserved sites were also found. Thus, a neighbor-joining tree was constructed using the full sequence data of the ITS regions and the 5.8S rDNA. The Trichoderma genus used to be grouped on the basis of the morphological features and especially the shape of phialides needs to be reexamined. The phylogenetic tree displayed the presence of monophylogeny in the species of Trichoderma. Therefore, it was difficult to distinguish the intrageneric relationships in the Trichoderma genus.

  • Objectives : To determine the DNA sequence of the 18S rRNA gene of the Rehmannia glutinosa and analyze it phylogenetically Methods : Dried root of the Rehmannia glutinosa was ground with a mortar and pestle. Glass beads(0.5 mm in diameter), TE buffer and SDS solution were added to that. The mixture was vortexed vigorously and extracted with the mixture of phenol, chloroform and isoamyl alcohol and with the mixture of the chloroform and isoamyl alcohol. The nucleic acids were precipitated with ethanol and resuspended in TE buffer. Contaminating RNA was digested with RNAse A and the DNA was purified further with the Geneclean Turbo Kit. This DNA was used as a template for amplification of the 18S rRNA gene by PCR. The PCR product was cloned in the pBluescript SK II plasmid by blunt-end ligation and the DNA sequence of the insert was determined. This DNA sequence was analyzed phylogenetically by the BLAST program. Results and Conclusion : Vortexing the ground powder of the dried plant root with glass beads during cell lysis improved recovery of DNA. The DNA sequence of the Rehmannia glutinosa 18S rRNA gene was determined and deposited at the GenBank as the accession number DQ469606. Phylogenetic analysis of that sequence showed the relationship between the members of the family of Scrophulariaceae and also the close relationship of the Buddleja davidii to the members of the Scrophulariaceae family.

  • Recently, the development of various culture-independent identification techniques for environmental microbes has greatly enhanced our knowledge of microbial diversity. In particular, denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) of 16S rDNA fragments, generated using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is frequently used to examine the diversity of environmental bacterial populations. This method consists of direct extraction of the environmental DNA, amplification of the 200-600 bp 16S rDNA fragments with universal primers, and separation of the fragments according to their melting point on a denaturing gradient gel. In this study, we investigated the seaside microbial community in coastal areas of Busan, Korea, using culture-independent techniques. First, marine genomic DNA was extracted from seawater samples collected at Songjeong, Gwangahn, and Songdo Beaches. Then, PCR was used to amplify the bacterial 16S rDNA using universal primers, and DGGE was used to separate the amplified 500 bp 16S rDNA fragments. Finally, the tested 16S rDNA genes were further analyzed by sequencing. Based on these experiments, we found that DGGE analysis clearly showed variation among the regional groups. It can be used to monitor rapid changes in the bacterial diversity of various environments. In addition, the sequence analysis indicated the existence of many unculturable bacteria, in addition to Arcobacter, Pseudoaltermonas, and Vibrio species.

  • Mitochondrial DNA(mt DNA) of Mammalian is the circular one which the 16.5K base pairs and show the maternal inheritance. Evolutional speed of nucleotide sequence is very fast. So that polymorphic analysis of mt DNA provide the useful informations to investigate the genetic relations of interspecies. Authors trials were focussed to compare with the polymorphic differences of mitochondrial DNA between Jindo and Japanese mongrel dogs. DNA was extracted from bloods of 21 head of Jindo dogs and 20 head of Japanese dogs and isolated using 10 kinds of restriction endonucleases(Apa I, BamH I, Bgl II, EcoR I, EcoR V, Hinc II. Hind III, Pst I, Sty I, Xba I) and then separated by the agarose gel electrophoresis. After sourthern blotting hybridization was completed using the mtDNA of Japanese mongrel dogs as a probe. Autoradiography was used to compare the polymorphism of mtDNA both dogs. The results obtained were as follows; 1. mt DNA of Jindo dog showed polymorphism resulting cleavage with four kinds of restriction endonuclease, Apa I, EcoR V, Hinc II, Sty I. While in the Japanese mongrel dogs observed the polymorphism in the five kinds of restriction endonuclease supplemented with EcoR I. 2. Compared with both dogs the frequency differences of DNA polymorphism were recognized in the specific restriction endonuclease Apa I. Consequently in the restriction endonuclease Apa I both dogs classified with three types as A, B, C however in the Jindo dogs frequency of C type was 71.5 percent but in Japanese mongrel dogs observed 45 percent in the A type. 3. DNA polymorphism obtained from the use of five kinds of restriction endonuclease were classified with seven types. In Jindo dogs frequency was highest in the type 6 as 71.4 percent but in the Japanese mongrel dogs showed 35 percent in the type 5. 4. Genetic distances calculated by NEI method showed 0.0089 in Jindo dogs and was 0.0094 in the Japanese mongrel dogs.

  • LSU rDNA D1-D2 and SSU rDNA genes of 23 strains in seven Alexandrium (Halim) species, A. tamarense (Lebour) Balech, A. catenella (Whedon et Kofoid), A. fraterculus (Balech) Balech, A. affine (Inoue et Fukuyo) Balech, A. insuetum Balech, A. pseudogonyaulax (Biecheler) Horiguchi ex Yuki et Fukuyo and A. tamiyavanichii Balech, were sequenced and the data were used for molecular phylogenetic analysis. The sequence data revealed 11 and 7 ribotypes in the LSU rDNA D1-D2 region and 4 and 17 ribotypes in the SSU rDNA region of A. catenella and A. tamarense, respectively. Other Alexandrium species had also 1 to 5 ribotypes in the two regions. With the exception of CMC2 and CMC3 of A. catenella, all A. tamarense and A. catenella strains had a common ribotype, a functionally expressed rRNA gene (here termed type A), in both gene regions. In addition to the functionally expressed gene, several pseudogenes were obtained that were found to be good tools to analyze the population designation of regional isolates by grouping them according to shared ribotypes. From the phylogenetic analysis of the sequence data determined in this study and retrieved from GenBank, the genus Alexandrium was divided into 14 groups: 1) A. tamarense, 2) A. excavatum, 3) A. catenella, 4) Tasmanian A. tamarense, 5) A. affine (and/or A. concavum), 6) Thai A. tamarense, 7) A. tamiyavanichii, 8) A. fraterculus, 9) A. margalefii, 10) A. andersonii, 11) A. ostenfeldii, 12) A. minutum (or A. lusitanicum), 13) A. insuetum, and 14) A. pseudogonyaulax. The SSU rDNA gene sequence of A. fundyense was so similar to those of A. tamarense used in this study that the two species were difficult to discriminate each other. A. tamiyavanichii was closest to the A. tamarense strain isolated in Thailand and close to the long chain-forming species of A. affine and A. fraterculus. The phylogenetic tree showed that A. margalefii, A. andersonii, A. ostenfeldii, A. minutum and A. insuetum constituted the basal relative complex, and that A. pseudogonyaulax is an ancestral taxon in the genus Alexandrium.

  • 제주도내 양식넙치 병어에서 분리된 연쇄상구균 75균주의 항균제에 대한 감수성 경향 및 내성균 출현빈도를 조사하고 다재내성 균주로부터 전이성 R plasmid를 검출하였다. 넙치 병어에서 분리된 모든 연쇄상구균은 flumequine (AR)과 oxolinic acid (OA)에 대하여 저항성이었으며, 그 중 30균주 (41%)는 ampicillin (ABPC), doxycycline (DOXY), erythromycin (EM), norfloxacine (NFLX), oxyteracycline (OTC)의 약제에 대하여 다양한 조합으로 동시내성을 나타내었다. AR과 OA를 포함하여 4~6약제에 대하여 다재내성을 보인 균주는 26주였다. 연쇄상구균의 다재내성 전이에 관여하는 R plasmid인 pST9와 DNA구조가 유사한 plasmid의 분포를 알아보기 위하여 60 분리 균주에 대한 colony 혼성화를 실시하였다. 그 결과 13 분리균에서 혼성화 양성반응이 나타났으며 생사료의 원료로 사용되는 양치와 고등어에서도 양성반응이 나타남으로써 동일 DNA구조의 plasmid가 분포함을 시사하였다. 혼성화 양성반응을 보인 13균주로부터 전이성 R plasmid를 검출하기 위하여 conjugation을 실시하였다. OTC, DOXY, EM에 대한 항균제 내성 marker인 Otc, Doxy, Em은 R plasmid에 의하여 수용균인 Streptococcus sp.로 전이가 이루어졌다. 또한 이들 전이성 R plasmid를 보유하고 있는 연쇄상구균들이 동일 분류군에 속하는지를 알아보기 위하여 RAPD pattern을 분석하였다. 내성균주들의 RAPD pattern은 모두 유사하였으며, Streptococcus iniae type의 RAPD pattern (Kim and Kim, 2003)은 나타나지 않았다. 그러므로 pST9와 동일 DNA 구조의 R plasmid는 S. iniae에서의 출현빈도가 매우 낮을 것으로 예상되었다.

  • Molec-ular analysis was performed on the microflora found In the necrotic pulpal tissue collected from 5 infected root canals that were diagnosed as a periapical abscess. 16S rRNA coding gene (rDNA) library construction and sequencing were performed in order to identify the microflora, The 16S rDNA sequences from 278 clones were identified by a comparison with the database sequence in GenBank. Three phylum and 31 species, which were related to the oral microflora, were identified from the 3 samples (No. 87, 105, and 115). Dialister invisus (5.6%), Peptostreptococcus micron (18.3%), and Veillonella sp. (3.3%) were the organism present in all tee samples. Lac-tobacillusfementum (2.8%),Eubacterumsp./E. infirmum (6.7%), Shuttleworthiasatelles (3.9%), Psudorarnihacfer alactoiyticus (13.3%), Bulleidia moorei (2.8%), and Prevotella denticola (1.1%) were found in two samples. Two phylum and low species of environmental microflora were identified from 2 samples (No.95 and 101). The reason for this might be contamination of the samples with dental water. These results showed that molecular analysis could reveal more diverse microflora that are associated with endodontic infections than that revealed by conventional cultural methods. In addition, these results may of for the basic data to epidemiological studies related with endodontic infection.
