Background: Korean wild boars (Sus scrofa coreanus Heude), because of their adaptability, are a widespread large mammal; however, they sometimes cause problems by invading farms and eating the crops, creating insufficiencies of some foods in South Korea. To understand the diet composition of Korean wild boars according to sex and body size, we collected their feces from Mt. Jeombongsan, Seoraksan National Park, South Korea. The sizes of fecal samples were measured, and genomic DNA was extracted from the samples. We amplified specific loci targeting plants (rbcL and trnL) and animals (COI) to detect the food sources of this omnivore and amplified the ZF and SRY regions to determine the sex. Results: In the wild boar feces, Rosaceae and Bryophyte were the most frequently detected plant food sources at the family level and Diptera and Haplotaxida were the most frequently detected animal food sources at the order level. As a result of sex determination, the sex ratio of wild boars collected in the Mt. Jeombongsan area was approximately 1:1. Our result suggested that there is no significant difference between the diet composition of male and female boars. Based on the average cross-sectional area of the feces, the top 25% were classified into the large body size group and the bottom 25% were classified into the small body size group. The large body size group mainly preferred Actinidiaceae, and the small body size group most frequently consumed Fagaceae. The diet of the large body size group was more diverse than the small body size group. Conclusions: Our results showed that the wild boars preferred Rosaceae, especially Sanguisorba and Filipendula, as plant food sources, and Diptera and Coleoptera of Insecta as animal food sources. Based on the results, the dietary preferences of wild boar appear to be distinguished by not their sex but their body size. Our study could help to elucidate the feeding ecology and population structure of wild boar, as well as address conservation and management issues.

Multiple changes of the photosynthesis pathway are independent evolutionary events occurring in the phylogeny of flowering plants, and such changes have occurred more than five times in Cyperaceae. In the tribe Cypereae, the C4 photosynthetic pathway appeared only once and is regarded as a synapomorphy of the C4 plants within this tribe. The morphological delimitation of genera within Cypereae does not correspond to their molecular phylogenetic relationships. In this study, the molecular phylogeny was compared with the photosynthetic pathways of Korean Cypereae (18 species of Cyperus, 1 species of Kyllinga, and 1 species of Lipocarpha). The photosynthetic pathways were determined by observing the leaf anatomy. The phylogenetic analysis was performed using three DNA regions (nrITS, rbcL, and trnL-F). According to the position of the photosynthetic tissue, 4 species (C. difformis, C. flaccidus, C. haspan, and C. tenuispica) and 16 species (14 Cyperus species, K. brevifolia var. leiolepis, and L. microcephala) were confirmed as C3 and C4 plants, respectively. Tribe Cypereae was divided into the CYPERUS and FICINIA clades, and all species of Korean Cypereae plants belonged to the CYPERUS clade in the phylogenetic analysis. Within the CYPERUS clade, C4 plants were monophyletic but their phylogenetic relationships were unclear. The genera Kyllinga and Lipocarpha were not supported as an independent genus in either case because they were nested by the Cyperus species in the molecular phylogenetic trees in the present and in previous studies. To determine the classification within the CYPERUS clade, a detailed morphological study and a molecular phylogenetic analysis at a high resolution will be necessary.

The Radar altimeter transmits radio signals to the surface, receives the backscattered signals and measures the distance between the airplane and the nadir surface. The measurements of radar altimeter are affected by various factors on the surface below the aircraft. This study performed flight campaigns in June 2012 and acquired raw data from radar altimeter, LiDAR and other sensors. Based on the LiDAR DSM (Digital Surface Model) as a reference data, the characteristics of radar altimeter were analyzed in the respect of range and surface area affecting on the receiving power of the radar altimeter. Consequently, the radar altimeter was strongly affected by the surface area within beam width and reflectivity related to RCS (Radar Cross Section) rather than range.

터리풀속(Filipendula)은 장미과(Rosaceae), 장미아과(Rosoideae)에 속하는 다년생 초본이며, 북반구 온대지역의 산지지역에 서식하며 15-20여 종이 보고되어 있고, 이 중 10여종이 한국, 중국, 일본, 타이완 등의 동아시아 지역에 분포한다. 본 연구의 목적은 DNA 염기서열 자료를 이용하여 터리풀속(Filipendula)내 종들간의 계통관계를 규명하기 위하여 본 연구를 수행하였다. 이를 위해서 11종 29개체의 터리풀속(Filipendula)샘플과 외군인 산딸기나무속(Rubus)에 속하는 3종 5개체의 샘플을 이용하였다. 추가로 Genbank에서 3속 10종 18개의 염기서열을 다운받아 비교분석에 이용하였다. 계통연구를 위하여 엽록체에 존재하는 atpF-atpH, psbK-psbI, psbA-trnH, matK, rbcL, 5개 마커와 핵에 존재하는 ITS, 총 6개 마커의 염기서열을 생산하였다. 총 52개의 샘플에 대하여 엽록체유전체 5개 마커지역은 염기서열 길이가 3,485bp였고 핵 ITS지역은 631bp였으며, 이들을 합한 염기서열 길이는 4,116bp였다. 계통분석결과, 터리풀속(Filipendula)은 단계통군을 이루었다. F. occidentalis와 F. vulgaris가 기저분류군을 이루었고 이들은 각각의 아속에 해당한다. 그리고 나머지 종들은 모두 하나의 단계통군을 이루었다. 위의 결과들은 1961년 시미즈가 본 속을 Hypogyna아속, Filipendula아속, Ulmaria아속으로 나눈 분류시스템과 일치한다. 나아가 분자계통수에서 Ulmaria아속은 크게 4개의 subclade로 구분되었다. 먼저 subclade I에는 F. vestita, F. kiraishiensis, F. tsuguwoi, F. multijiuga, F. purpurea 등 5개 종으로 구성되었다. Subclade II는 F. ulmaria 한 종으로만 구성되었다. Subclade III에는 F. glaberrima, F. koreana, F. formosa, F.camtschatica 로 구성되었으며 subclade III에는 한국에 서식하는 3종이 포함되었다. Subclade IV에는 F. rubra, F. angustiloba, F. palmata, F. intermedia 4종으로 구성되었다. 이번연구에서는 Ulmaria아속내에 4개의 subclade가 존재함이 처음으로 확인되었다.

The aim of this study was to develop rapid screening method for the identification of Chinese herbal medicine species with similar appearance, Polygonum multiflorum, Cynanchum wilfordii and C. auriculatum, by using genetic markers. As a genetic marker, psbA-trnH gene in chloroplast was selected due to differences in sequence among the three species. Species-specific primers were designed based on the sequences of the marker gene of P. multiflorum, C. wilfordii, and C. auriculatum, and the expected size of PCR products was 160, 147, and 119 bp, respectively. Under the developed conditions, cross-reaction was not detected among these three plant species. To confirm the efficiency of our species-specific primers, the optimized method was applied to a variety of processed products composed of mostly P. multiflorum and C. wilfordii, demonstrating that our method was a rapid and easy screening assay. Our findings suggest this screening method can be utilized to prevent the distribution of economically motivated adulteration food and to improve consumer's right.

Restoration ecology is the practical study of renewing and restoring a spoilt, degraded, or devastated ecosystems in the environment. Because the Korean industry has been drastically developed for the past few decades, the Korean ecosystem requires restoration using regional seed. In this study, we identified the variation of phylogenic relationship of Miscanthus sinensis or Phragmites australis by locations in Korea. Chloroplast DNA atpF-H and psbA-trnH interspace region were used as a molecular marker to resolve the phylogenic relationship in 10 different locations. We performed the molecular phylogenetic analysis with 10 chloroplast DNAs from each location using Kimura 2-parameter. The analysis of Miscanthus showed that all atpF-H genes were exact matches except for Ose san. In contrast to Mischanthus, the atpF-H genes from Phragmites were observed to have more variation. A total of 7 locations revealed the variation in chloroplast gene. According to the phylogenic tree in Phragmites, 2 of 10 samples in 6 locations and 3 of 10 in 1 location showed variation with 0.160-0.181 genetic distance. According to the genetic distance of the Miscanthus sinensis, there were no mutations in all regions except the Hongsung. These results support regional differences and show the necessity for seed collection by region. In the case of Phragmites australis, genetic variation occurred in all regions.
