  • This paper presents a set of methodologies for aligning hypernym-hyponym noun pairs between Korean and English, based on the EuroWordNet approach. Following the methods conducted in EuroWordNet, our approach makes extensive use of WordNet in four steps of the building process: 1) Monolingual dictionaries have been used to extract proper hypernym-hyponym noun pairs, 2) bilingual dictionary has converted the extracted pairs, 3) Word Net has been used as a backbone of alignment criteria, and 4) WordNet has been used to select the most similar pair among the candidates. The importance of this study lies not only on enriching semantic links between two languages, but also on integrating lexical resources based on a language specific and dependent structure. Our approaches are aimed at building an accurate and detailed lexical resource with proper measures rather than at fast development of generic one using NLP technique.

  • Gobiids are hyperdiverse compared with other teleost groups, with about 2,000 species occurring in marine, freshwater, and blackish habitats, and they show a remarkable variety of morphologies and ecology. Testing the effectiveness of DNA barcodes on species that have emerged as a result of radiation remains a major challenge in evolutionary biology. Here, we used the cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (COI) sequences from 144 species of gobies and related species to evaluate the performance of distance-based DNA barcoding and to conduct a phylogenetic analysis. The average intra-genus genetic distance was considerably higher than that obtained in previous studies. Additionally, the interspecific divergence at higher taxonomic levels was not significantly different from that at the intragenus level, suggesting that congeneric gobies possess substantial interspecific sequence divergence in their COI gene. However, levels of intragenus divergence varied greatly among genera, and we do not provide sufficient evidence for using COI for cryptic species delimitation. Significantly more nucleotide changes were observed at the third codon position than that at the first and the second codons, revealing that extensive variation in COI reflects synonymous changes and little protein level variation. Despite clear signatures in several genera, the COI sequences did resolve genealogical relationships in the phylogenetic analysis well. Our results support the validity of COI barcoding for gobiid species identification, but the utilization of more gene regions will assist to offer a more robust gobiid species phylogeny.

  • During the screening for the antifungal compounds against Phytophthora capsici causing phytophthora blight of red pepper, we isolated a strong active compound, bafilomycin $C_1$, produced by strain 3D3. The producing organism was identified as Streptomyces sp. based on taxonomic studies. The antifungal compound was purified from culture broth by HP-20 column chromatography, ethylacetate extraction, silica gel column chromatography and HPLC, and was identified as bafilomycin $C_1$ by color reaction, UV and $^{1}H$-NMR spectral data analysis. Bafilomycin $C_1$ showed strong antifungal activity against various phytopathogenic fungi.

  • Three thousand microbial strains collected from different sources were screened for herbicidal activity. A strain of ME-9189 showed herbicidal activity against Digitaria sanguinalis and Portulaca oleracea was isolated from a mountainy soil. Based on taxonomic studies, the strain was identified as Streptomyces tubercidicus. The active compound of ME-9189 was purified from the culture broth by charcoal, silica gel, sephadex LH-20 column chromatography and crystalization, consecutively. The ME-9189 compound was identified as tubercidin by spectroscopic methods of UV, $^{1}H$ and $^{13}C$-NMR, and EIMS. In the bioassay, growth of radish shoot and root was inhibited by 50% with tubercidin treatment of 10 ppm, showing 2 times higher activity than that of herbicidin A and similar to that of toyocamycin.

  • Streptomyces 5균주 간의 유사도를 혈청학적 방법으로 측정하였다. 항원으로는 충분히 생장한 균체의 외피를 Tween 20으로 용출시킨 용액을 사용하였고 항체는 토끼를 면역시켜 얻었다. 면역확산과 ELISA 결과 항원-항체 반응의 정도가 균주간의 분류학적 유사성과 비례적으로 반영되지 않았다. 즉 군집 A에 속하는 균주들 사이의 항원-항체 반응이 낮게 측정된 반면에 군집 F의 Streptomyces Iavendulae와 군집 A의 Streptomyces viridochromogenes가 특이적으로 비교적 높게 나타났다.

  • Rapid and reliable identification of microorganisms is a key for tracing the relationship between the target bacteria and related infectious diseases. Various identification methods such as classical phenotypic analysis, numerical taxonomic analysis, and DNA sequencing have been widely used to classify microorganisms in milk and dairy products. Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry (MS) identifies targeted bacteria in milk and milk products. Several studies have demonstrated that MALDI-TOF MS identification is an efficient and inexpensive method for the rapid and routine identification of isolated bacteria. MALDI-TOF MS could provide accurate identification of bacteria in milk and milk products at the serotype or strain level and enable antibiotic resistance profiling within minutes.

  • A taxonomic study of small mammals (Erinaceomorpha, Soricomorpha and Rodentia) was conducted in order to find out the scientific names which have been used in Korea. The synonymy of each species and taxonomical research was reviewed and confirmed in this study. The species names are rearranged based on recent studies. Among the various confused names, available names were adopted such as follows: C. shantungensis shantungensis known as Crocidura suaveolens; C. shantungensis quelpartis known as C. dsinezumi; Rattus tanezumi known as R. rattus, called black rat, roof rat and ship rat, respectively. Apodemus sylvaticus (Muridae, wood mouse) is excluded in the checklist based on indistinct previous records and ambiguous habitation on the Korean Peninsula, and neighbors. In addition, we provide a new Korean vernacular name for Myocastor coypus, called the "Nutria" in Korea. We reflect that several species are repositioned to other genera. A checklist of Korean small mammals and synonym list for each species is provided to avoid confusion of scientific names in Korea. In this study, the list of small mammals in Korea is arranged to 33 species, 20 genera, 8 families, and 3 orders.

  • 한국산 은방울꽃의 형태와 핵형의 특징을 분석하고, 분류학적으로 검토하였다. 은방울꽃은 2엽식물이 70%, 1엽 식물이 30%로 출현하였으며, 3엽 식물은 매우 드물었다. 체장은 평균 34.4$\pm$4.6cm이고, 장타원형의 잎은 외엽보다 내엽이 좁고 길었다. 은방울꽃의 개화율은 조사된 식물 1,346개체 중에 평균 3.7%에 불과하였다. 화경은 대개 잎의 하부에 있으나, 드물게는 잎의 상부까지 자라기도 하였으며, 5~10개의 꽃이 총상화서를 이루었다. 염색체는 x=19, 2n=38로서 유럽산 또는 일본산 식물과 동일하였다. 상동염색체들은 13쌍의 중부염색체와 6쌍의 차중부염색체로 구분되었다.

  • To investigate the indigenous prokaryotic species diversity in Korea, various environmental samples from diverse ecosystems were examined taxonomically. The isolated bacterial strains were identified based on 16S rRNA gene sequences, and those exhibiting at least 98.7% sequence similarity with known bacterial species but never reported in Korea were selected as unrecorded species. As an outcome of this study, 10 unrecorded bacterial species belonging to the phylum Firmicutes were discovered from various sources such as soil, tidal flat, fresh water, sea water, kimchi and gut of Fulvia mutica. The unrecorded species were assigned to 7 different genera of 5 families, namely Bacillus and Ornithinibacillus of Bacillaceae, Exiguobacterium of Exiguobacteriaceae, Brevibacillus and Paenibacillus of Paenibacillaceae, Staphylococcus of Staphylococcaceae, and Lactococcus of Streptococcaceae. The selected isolates were subjected to further taxonomic characterization including the analysis of Gram reaction, cellular and colonial morphology, biochemical activities, and phylogenetic trees. The descriptive information on the 10 unrecorded species are provided.
