A new Bacillus thuringiensis isolate 19-22 (Bt 19-22) exhibited high anti-fungal activity against barley powdery mildew (Blumeria graminis f. sp. hordei). The cry gene content of Bt 19-22 comprised cry1Aa, cry1Ab, cry1Ac and cry1D which have high insecticidal activity against lepidopteran larvae. We tried to confer a dipteran insecticidal activity to Bt 19-22 for constructing a recombinant strain which has multiple functions, anti-fungal and dual insecticidal activity. The insecticidal cry11Aa gene of B. thuringiensis was constructed under cry1Ac promoter in an E. coli-B. thuringiensis shuttle vector (pPro11A). The plasmid, pPro11A was introduced into Bt 19-22 isolate by electroporation and four transformants which had different cry gene contents were identified by PCR with cry11Aa and cry1-type specific primers. Among them, a Bt 19-22 transformant (11A/19-22 No. 7) expressed Cry11A protein (approximately 70 kDa) successfully without change of its inherent characteristics such as Cry protein expression and antifungal activity. The insecticidal activity of 11A/19-22 No. 7 was checked against Plutella xylostella and Culex pipiens. These results suggests that the recombinant strain shows dual insecticidal activity against lepidopteran and dipteran larvae as well as antifungal activity.

Promising in 2011, select one system. Replicated yield trial for two years beginning in 2012 a result of the stem length, providing high -quality “No. 1, Jeollanam-do” majority by assigning system name. Naju, Jangheung-gun, local excellence by implementing a local adaptability test recognized in two years. To breed a new variety named as a dwelling “ Daehong” of Lithospermum erythrorhizon the review by fostering december 2014 to be registered. Conclusions : Leaf type is the broad lancet, flowering time is new variety six days than Jecheon native variety fasted. New variety of stem length and stem thickness are check variety (87cm, 8.25mm) of 9cm tall and 0.6mm thick. Seed yields has native variety as much as 81 % compared to the many into 45.6 kg/10a. The shikonin contents of roots was 1.3 times higher compared to check variety (447 ㎍ / g). The dried root yields of the new variety are 221kg/10a a many native variety than 50%.

Powdery mildew disease caused by Leveillula taurica is a serious fungal threat to greenhouse pepper production. In contrast to most epiphytic powdery mildew species, L. taurica is an endophytic fungus which colonizes in the mesophyll tissues of the leaf. In the genus Capsicum, several studies have been conducted to identify resistance sources to L. taurica. In previous studies, five quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for powdery mildew resistance have been identified. An F2 population derived from self-pollination of the commercial cultivar Capsicum annuum ‘PM Singang’ was used for genetic analysis of powdery mildew resistance. Resistance of the F2 plants was tested under the natural environmental conditions. Sporulation intensity on infected leaves was used as a disease scale to assign resistance levels to plants, where 0-5% is Resistant, 6-15% Moderate resistant and 16-100% Susceptible. A total of 83 F2 plants were evaluated for resistance. The results showed that 59 plants were resistant, 10 susceptible and 14 moderately resistant. If we consider MR as S, segregation ratio fitted to a single dominant resistance gene model. In the future study, closely linked molecular marker will be developed and tested to locate this gene. The developed marker will be used to identify the powdery mildew resistance gene.

Phytophthora capsici an Oomycete pathogen is a major challenge to the pepper (Capsicum spp.) production around the world. Control measures are proved ineffective, so breeding resistant cultivars are the most promising strategy against the pathogen. Resistance against P. capsici is governed by quantitative trait loci (QTL). According to previous studies on QTL detection, the QTL on pepper chromosome 5 is a major contributor to resistance. In this study, to exploit the involvement of this QTL and identify its contributing genes, the F2 population derived from a cross between ECW30R and CM334 was inoculated with a medium virulence P. capsici strain JHAI1-7 zoospores at the 6-8 leaf stage. Composite interval mapping revealed two major QTLs; QTL5-1 from 7 days post inoculation (dpi) and QTL5-2 from 16 dpi on chromosome 5. To characterize and detect interactions of the two QTLs, near isogenic lines (NIL) were constructed by crossing Tean and recombinant inbred line (RIL) derived from a cross between YCM334 and Tean. RILs were screened with P. capsici strain MY-1 and resistant lines were selected. Among the resistance RILs most closely related to Tean were selected using AFLP and SSR genotyping data. These RILs were named as YT39-2 and YT143-2. To develop more advanced NILs, two rounds of marker-assisted backcrossing were done using a high-throughput SNP genotyping system (EPI Fluidigm, USA). Among the NILs derived from YT39-2, YT39-2-64 contains only QTL5-1 whereas YT39-2-61 and YT39-2-69 were identified to have both QTLs. On the other hand, YT143-2-55-7 with the highest Tean genetic background contains QTL5-1 only. In the next step, the 3 different NILs having QTL5-1, QTL5-2 individually and both QTLs will be identified. Furthermore, phenotyping and fine mapping will be done for the analysis of individual and interaction effects of QTLs.

Clubroot is a devastating disease caused by Plasmodiophora brassicae and results in severe losses of yield and quality in Brassica crops including Brassica oleracea. Therefore, it is important to identify resistance gene for CR disease and apply it to breeding of Brassica crops. In this study, we applied genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) technique to construct high resolution genetic map and mapping of clubroot resistance (CR) genes. A total of 18,187 GBS markers were identified between two parent lines resistant and susceptible to the disease, of which 4,103 markers were genotyped in all 78 F2 plants generated from crossing of both parent lines. The markers were clustered into nine linkage groups spanning 879.9 cM, generating high resolution genetic map enough to refine reported reference genome of cabbage. In addition, through QTL analysis using 78 F2:3 progenies and mapping based on the genetic map, two and single major QTLs were identified for resistance of race 2 and race 9 of P. brassicae, respectively. These QTLs did not show collinearity with CR loci found in Chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa) but roughly overlapped with CR loci identified in cabbage for resistance to race 4. Taken together, genetic map and QTLs obtained in this study will provide valuable information to improve reference genome and clubroot resistance in cabbage.
