Agrobacterium vector를 이용한 세포사멸 억제유전자인 AtBI-1(Arabidopsis thaliana Bax Inhibitor-1)을 벼에 도입하기 위하여, 벼품종별 식물체 재분화 능력과 AtBI-1 유전자가 도입된 형질전환체 벼에 관한 연구를 수행하여 얻어진 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 벼의 품종별 식물체 재분화 능력을 조사한바 자포니카형 벼가 인디카형 및 통일형 벼에 비해 식물체 재분화능력이 높게 나타났다. 공시 품종 중에서 일품벼의 식물체 재분화율(7%)이 가장 높았다. 배양용기별 식물체 재분화 능력을 조사한바, petri-dish에서 보다 시험관에서 식물체 재분화율이 높았다. 4주동안 자란 ‘일품’ 유래의 callus를 Agrobacterium과 co-cultivation한 후 kanamycin과 carbenicillin이 첨가된 재분화 배지에 이식하였을 때 12.0%의 가장 높은 형질전환율을 나타내었다. 형질전환된 식물체의 genomic DNA를 이용한 PCR 결과는 Bin-AtBI-1-GFP 유전자는 1 kb 부근에 삽입된 것이 확인되었으며, Southern blot 분석에서도 확인이 되었다. 형질전환체의 CLSM(confocal laser scanning microscope) 분석에서 잎, 줄기, 뿌리에서 GFP가 발현되어 형광색을 띄고 있음을 확인 하였다.

It is an after-school material for elementary school student based on STEAM education which has a theme of water pollution as a global issue. First of all, we take a look at various ways of measuring water pollution and among them, we include experiment for student to know about the water pollution by using indicator organisms. Next, we examine how some elements in our daily life affect on water and provide class with systematically technological and engineering solution. With this text book, we let the student recognize environmental problem and seek for the solution about it. Therefore, it helps student to connect with stream of thought.

The objective of this study was undertaken to investigate changes in fatty acid profile of breast and thigh muscle of old laying hens as transferred from cage to backyard raising system and to provide basic information on using old laying hens to producers for environmental managements. Overall, percentages of unsaturated fatty acid obtained from breast and thigh muscle with cage and backyard raising system are the most abundant, followed by saturated fatty acid. For breast muscle, there were no differences (P>0.05) between cage rearing system and backyard raising system in saturated fatty acid (SFA) and mono unsaturated fatty acid (MUFA). Poly unsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) and PUFA:SFA ratios were significantly higher in backyard raising systems in comparison with cage rearing systems (P<0.05). No differences (P>0.05) were detected between both rearing systems for MUFA, PUFA, and PUFA:SFA ratios with thigh muscles. SFA in thigh muscle was significantly (P<0.05) higher in cage rearing systems compared with backyard raising systems. In conclusion, using breast and thigh muscle meats from old laying hens as functional foods or investigating impact assessment on the improvement of farm management system may serve as a good management practice to encourage producers.

The goal of this study was to investigate the distribution chart of management and satisfaction through Hanwoo education program and to provide fundamental data and development conformity available on the management and educational program to managers. In this study, we chose 75 managers taking part in Hanwoo education program as pre-test and applied satisfaction for education program to 33 managers randomly selected as post-test. The results of this study are as follows: First, age and academic career had a significant (P< 0.05) effect on breeding size, breeding career, sales, and management methods. This may be due to the fact that managers in Hanwoo industry tended to raise academic standards and the age group moved towards young age rather than middle and old ages. However, an academic career was unaffected by sale and management methods. Second, managers who randomly selected the education program showed higher satisfaction about the program and lower or usual interest and intention in the educational environment, incidental facilities, and reviews. In conclusion, to equip the constituent parts of education program with entire propriety and an effective running system, information on breeding size and breeding career for managers in Hanwoo Industry with respect to age and academic career had to be clearly premeditated. It also needed the educational program to look at it from the standpoint of the managers.

Recent research has demonstrated that treating poultry litter with alum (aluminum sulfate) and aluminum chloride can remove environmental threats (ammonia, soluble phosphorus and odor) posed by litter. However, scientific information available on heavy metal in poultry litter with liquid aluminum chloride is still lacked. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of applying liquid aluminum chloride to rice hulls on heavy metals and to provide basic information to producers. Six hundred 0-d-old broiler were assigned to 4 treatments (control, 100 g, 200 g and 300 g of liquid AlCl3/kg of rice hulls, respectively) with 3 replicates of 50 birds. The experimental period lasted for 6 weeks. Liquid AlCl3 was sprayed on the rice hulls surface using a small hand pump. Total Al contents increased (P<0.05) with the increasing levels of liquid AlCl3 levels over time in comparison with control groups. Total Cu and Pb were lowered in all liquid AlCl3 treatments compared with the controls during 6 weeks. Significant differences in all treatments were found for total Cu contents at 2, 3 and 5 weeks and total Pb at 0, 1, 2 and 3 weeks. Total Zn contents decreased with time when compared with controls. However, no significant differences in total Zn contents were observed among all treatments. In light of environmental managements, spraying liquid AlCl3 to rice hulls indicated the significant advantages in reducing heavy metals as well as improving poultry industrial competitiveness.
