Gel electrophoresis of DNA is a well known technique in molecular biology. This technique is simple, rapid to perform, and capable of adequately separating fragments of DNA. A number of mixtures of DNA fragments ("DNA size markers") are frequently employed in a purpose of extrapolating the sizes or the amount of DNA molecules during gel electrophoresis. DNA size markers are constructed by digesting plasmid DNA, bacteriophage DNA, or recombinant DNA molecules with one or more restriction enzymes. However, liquid suspension containing DNA size marker needs to be kept at a low temperature during storage and shipping. In an attempt to maintain the DNA samples at room temperature for extended period of time, lyophilization of DNA with addition of nuclease inhibitor was studied. Gel loading buffer was also added to the lyophilized DNA to provide additional convenience such that DNA size marker was the "ready-to-use" followed by simply reconstituting with distilled water.

In order to identify and develop the specific DNA marker for the identification of Hanwoo (Korean Cattle) from other breeds, a specific DNA marker of 519 bp was identified and sequenced from polymorphic analysis using RAPD-PCR for 6 cattle breeds. Two different repetitive sequences, $(AAC)_5$ and $(GAAGA)_2$, were selected and designed to use specific probe to develop a DNA marker for Hanwoo specific. When the $(AAC)_5$ probe was applied, the 10 kb specific DNA marker showed in the DNA fingerprinting from 237 of 281 Hanwoo individuals. This novel Hanwoo specific DNA probe is useful to perform the marker-assisted selection for screening Hanwoo purity as an unique genetic source.

This study was performed to determine sequence variation and RFLP of the mt DNA D-loop region using Southern blot hybridization analysis and to develop mt DNA marker affecting milk production traits in Hanwoo cows. The PCR was used to amplify an 1142 bp fragment within the D-loop region of mt DNA using specific primers. Mt DNA were digested with seven restriction enzymes and hybridized using DIG-labeled D-loop probe. The mt DNA RFLP polymorphisms were observed in the four enzymes, BamHI, RsaI, XbaI and HpaII. Nucleotide substitutions were detected at positions 441 (G/C), 469 (T/C), 503 (C/T), 569 (G/A), 614 (C/A) and 644 (C/T) of the mt DNA D-loop region between two selected lines. Significant relationship between the XbaI RFLP type and breeding value was found(p<0.05). Cows with A type had higher estimated breeding values than those with B type (P<0.05) between high and low milk production lines. Therefore, the RFLP marker of mt DNA could be used as a selection assisted tool for individuals with high milk producing ability in Hanwoo.

한국산 선발계통 및 일본산 양식계통과 이들 두 계통간 잡종 참돔 집단의 유전적 특성을 분석하기 위하여, RAPD (Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA) marker를 탐색하였다. 10개의 염기로 이루어진 200개의 random primer 분석을 통하여 polymorphic pattern을 나타내는 23개의 random primer를 선발하였으며, 각 primer의 재현성을 확인하였다. 이들 중 OPA-11 primer는 크기가 각각 600 bp, 650 bp 및 750 bp 인 3개의 DNA 단편에 의하여 4개의 genotype을 나타냈으며, 각 genotype의 빈도는 집단간차이를 보였고, 한국산 선발계통 집단에서는 4개의 genotype이 모두 발견되는 반면, 일본산 양식계통 및 일본산 양식계통을 포함한 교배집단에서는 특정 genotype만 발견되었다. OPA-11 primer 유래의 polymorphic DNA 단편을 cloning하고 염기서열을 결정하였으며, SCAR (Sequence Characterized Amplified Region) primer를 제작하고 분석하였다. 본 연구는 참돔집단의 유전적 특성 파악 및 집단 구별에 RAPD marker를 활용하였으며, 참돔 육종시 형질 및 기능관련 DNA marker 탐색에 적용하기 위하여, 이후의 연구에서는 SCAR과 RFLP 분석에 RAPD marker를 이용하여 100% 정확도를 갖는 RFLP maker를 찾고, MAS (Marker-Assisted Selection)에 적용하고자 한다.

A sequence characterized amplified region (SCAR) marker, which was tightly linked with the A1 mating type locus in Phytophthora infestans, was developed. During the random amplified polymorphic DNA-based phylogenic studies of 33 isolates of P infestans collected from year 2002 to 2004, we found an A1 mating type-specific DNA fragment. This 573-bp DNA fragment was generated only in the genomic DNA of the A1 mating types, when OPC-5 primer was used. Based on the specific DNA sequence, we designed the primer sets for generating the A1 mating type-specific 569-bp DNA fragment. When 33 genomic DNAs of P. infestans were subjected to PCR amplification using different primer combinations, the A1 mating type-specific DNA was amplified, when LB-1F and LB-2R primers were used. The specific 569-bp DNA fragment was generated only from all 18 A1 strains, but not from 15 A2 mating type strains. These results corresponded to the mating type discriminating bioassay of 33 isolates of P. infestans. Therefore, the primer combination of LB-1F/LB2R was chosen as a SCAR marker. Overall, this study indicates that the SCAR marker could be developed into a useful tool for mating type determination of P. infestans.

The study of molecular markers to improve crops largely depends on the availability of rapid and of efficient DNA extraction methods. Here we developed a cheap and convenient method to isolate genomic DNA from rice grains suitable for large-scale microsatellite analysis. We confirmed that the isolated rice DNA is suitable for PCR analysis with STS marker and SNP marker, as well as microsatellite marker. Further, we established high-throughput DNA extraction system in a 96-well plate format which make it possible high-throughput analysis of microsatellite markers with rice grains. This implies that the new method could be a useful tool for other types of marker analysis in large scale.

This study was conducted to provide a basic system to develop a molecular marker for plant cultivar protection using a recombinant DNA technology. Using Nicotiana tabacum L. plants, the potentiality in the utilization of the developed marker was examined. After homology test with several plant genomes, mouse adenosine deaminase (ADA) gene was selected as DNA source of a molecular marker for cultivar protection. As a result of the digestion of ADA gene with BamHI and Pst I, six DNA fragments were obtained, and 513 bp DNA fragment among them was selected as a possible DNA marker for cultivar protection. Selected 513 bp DNA fragment was efficiently inserted into pBI101 plasmid vector for plant transformation by using phagemid vector pBluescript II SK (+/-) as an intermediate vector. The recombinant pBI101, carrying 513 bp DNA fragment, possible markers for cultivar protection, was transformed into A. tumefaciens LBA4404. Nicotiana tabacum was transformed with A. tumefaciens LBA4404 having the recombinant pBI101 and was confirmed the transfer of 513 bp DNA fragment, a possible molecular marker for cultivar protection.

In order to develop the specific genetic marker for Korean native cattle (Hanwoo), randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis of 6 different cattle breeds was attempted by using 38 decamer primers. In comparison of RAPD patterns, two distinctive DNA bands specific for Hanwoo were detected. One was 296 bp of DNA fragment found to be specific only for female Hanwoo when primer GTCCACACGG was employed. In individual analysis of this RAPD marker was observed only in female individuals with the possibility of $85.3\%$. The other was 521 bp of RAPD marker amplified using TCGGCGATAG and AGCCAGCGAA primers, which showed $83.0\%$ of genetic frequency in 85 male and 68 female individuals tested. Nucleotide sequencing of these genetic markers revealed that 296 bp marker has a short micro satellite-like sequence, ACCACCACAC, and a tandem repeat sequence of microsatellite GAAAAATG in the determined sequence. Two distinctive tandem repeats of microsatellite sequences, MC and GAAGA, were also appeared in 521 bp DNA marker. In BLAST search, any gene having high homology with these markers was not found.
