Lactuca serriola L. (syn. L. scariola L.), commonly known as prickly lettuce, invaded Korea in the late 1970s. The plant has since become widely naturalized and disruptive to native plant communities. In May 2020, downy mildew infections were observed on L. serriola in Gimje-si, Korea. Molecular phylogenetic and morphological analyses identified the causal agent as Bremia lactucae. This is the first report of B. lactucae infection on L. serriola in Korea.

This study aimed to identify the phytochemical constituents of Lactuca serriola leaves and perform quantitative analysis of the methanol (MeOH) extract of L. serriola, L. indica, L. raddeana, L. sativa, and L. triangulata. Six compounds were isolated from the MeOH extracts of L. serriola using open column chromatography and identified as protocatechuic acid (1), caffeic acid (2), cynaroside (3), apigenin 7-glucuronide (4), luteolin (5), and apigenin (6) using ¹H-, ¹³C-nuclear magnetic resonance, and mass spectrometry. Quantitative analysis of the six compounds was performed on the MeOH extract of Lactuca species using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and an ultraviolet (UV). A reverse-phased column was used, and the UV absorbance was set to 280 nm. The contents of compounds 2 and 3 were the highest (1.58 and 2.64 mg/g ext., respectively) in L. serriola extracts. However, compounds 4 and 6 were higher (1.46 and 0.40 mg/g ext., respectively) in L. triangulata. These results provide quantitative data for the application of Lactuca species in the pharmaceutical and functional food industries.

Prickly lettuce (Lactuca serriola), an invasive annual plant, poses a significant threat to the agricultural systems of many countries, including Korea. In 2020, leaf blight symptoms were observed in the prickly lettuce populations of various farms across Korea. Detailed morphological and molecular sequence analyses revealed that the disease was caused by the fungus, Curvularia intermedia. A pathogenicity test confirmed that the fungus can cause the same symptoms in healthy prickly lettuce, thereby fulfilling Koch's postulates. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of C. intermedia causing leaf blight on L. serriola in Korea, suggesting its potential as a biocontrol agent for this weed. However, further investigations are necessary to determine its ecological impact to prevent any non-target effects.

외근에 귀화한 가시상추(Lactuca serriola)의 분산과 적응을 연구하였다. 가시ㅛ　추의 분포는 한반도 중부지방의 남부에 제한되었다. 그 분포지역은 인간에 의한 이동으로 점차 확산되고 잇었다. 10개의 조사지역의 관측결과 천이의 초기단뎨에 있는 노변식생으로 나타났다. 즉 측수의 90%의 초본층과 5%의 관목층으로 구성되었으나 교목층은 없었다. 우점종군은 Kummeroverowia stipulacea, Ixeris chimensis, Ambrosia artemisiifolia., Lactuca indica, Tiungia sonchifolia, Cephalonoplos segetum, Rubus parvifolius, Ixeris polycephala, Hemistepta Lyrata, Cercis chinensis Artemisia capillaris 이었다. 조사지역은 식생의 높은 상이도로 4개유형으로 구분되지만 많은 우형이 나타나는 것은 아직 가시상추의 특유한 군락은 형성하지 못하고 있음을 보였다.

RAPD, Inter-SSR, and AFLP markers were used to assess the genetic diversity of lettuce cultivars and the phylogenetic relationships in Lactuca spp. A total of 216 polymorphic bands from seven RAPD primers, four Inter-SSR primers, and five AFLP primer combinations were used to elucidate the genetic similarity among lettuce cultivars. Forty-four lettuce accessions were subdivided into discrete branches according to plant type: crisphead, butterhead, and stem type, with some exceptions. The leafy- and cos-type accessions were intermingled in other groups with no discrete branch indicating that these are more diverse than others. Three accessions, including the Korean cultivar 'Cheongchima', the Korean local landrace 'Jinjam', and the German cultivar 'Lolla Rossa' were classified as the most diverse accessions. Twenty bands were unique in specific cultivars. Among these, three were specific in a plant type; one in Korean leafy type, one in crisphead type, and one in cos type lettuce. In the phylogenetic analysis among Lactuca species, L. saligna, L. serriola, and L. georgica clustered in a sister branch of the L. sativa complex. Two L. virosa accessions show the highest intra-specific relationships. L. perennis outlied from all the other Lactuca species at a genetic similarity of 0.53 and clustered with two Cichorium species, C. intybus and C. endivia, with genetic similarity of 0.67. The phylogenetic tree was supported by data from polymorphism of chloroplast genome which was revealed by PCR-RFLP.

가시상추(Prickly lettuce : Lactuca serriola)로부터 여러 가지 추출용매를 사용하여 생리활성물질을 분리하였다. 가시상추의 일반성분, vitamin, polyphenol성 물질 그리고 flavonoid 성분의 함량을 분석하였다. 또한, MeOH 조추출물에 의한 아질산염 제거 활성, 항산화 활성, 항균 활성을 측정하였다. MeOH 조추출물의 EtOAc 분획에서 가장 높은 아질산염 제거 활성, 항산화 활성 그리고 항균 활성을 보여주었다. 그리고 polyphenol성 물질과 flavonoid의 함량도 가장 높았다. EtOAc 분획 중 subfraction 2 (EtOAc:MeOH=3:1)에서 가장 높은 항산화 활성을 보여주었다. Subfraction 2는 GC-MS에 의해 ${\rho}$-coumaric acid와 caffeic acid로 동정되었다. 가시상추 추출물의 용매 분획별 항균 활성을 검색한 결과, EtOAc 분획에서 가장 높은 항균 활성을 보여주었다. 이러한 연구 결과는 가시상추 유래의 생리활성물질의 생물학적 활성을 이해하는데 필요한 기본 데이터를 제공해 줄 것이다.

This study was conducted to evaluate the resistance of 212 accessions of lettuce germplasm to gray mold disease caused by Botrytis cinerea. The lettuce germplasm were composed of five species: Lactuca sativa (193 accessions), L. sativa var. longifolia (2 accessions), L. sativa var. crispa (2 accessions), L. saligna (2 accessions), and L. serriola (1 accession); majority of these originated from Korea, Netherlands, USA, Russia, and Bulgaria. After 35 days of spray inoculation with conidial suspension ($3{\times}10^7$ conidia/ml) of B. cinerea on the surface of lettuce leaves, tested lettuce germplasm showed severe symptoms of gray mold disease. There were 208 susceptible accessions to B. cinerea counted with 100% of disease incidence and four resistant accessions, IT908801, K000598, K000599, and K021055. Two moderately resistant accessions of L. sativa, K021055 and IT908801, showed 20% of disease incidence of gray mold disease at 45 days after inoculation; and two accessions of L. saligna, K000598 and K000599, which are wild relatives of lettuce germplasm with loose-leaf type, showed complete resistance to B. cinerea. These four accessions are candidates for breeding lettuce cultivars resistant to gray mold disease.

부산광역시에 분포하는 생태계교란식물에 대해 종 다양성과 분포현황을 규명하고자 연구를 수행하였다. 연구 결과 부산광역시에는 10종의 생태계교란식물이 분포하고 있는 것으로 확인되었으며, 국내에서 높은 종 다양성을 보이는 지역으로 확인되었다. 집괴분석을 통해 미국쑥부쟁이 우점군락, 가시상추 우점군락, 돼지풀 우점군락, 애기수영 우점군락, 도깨비가지 우점군락 등이 높은 유사성을 나타내는 것으로 확인되었다. 생태계 교란식물은 우점군락 내에서 다른 생태계 교란식물이 함께 혼생하는 경향을 보여, 유사한 서식처를 공유하고 있는 것올 밝혀졌다. 부산시에서 가장 광범위한 분포경향을 보이는 종은 가시상추(16개 구)이며, 돼지풀(11개 구), 미국쑥부쟁이(11개 구), 애기수영(10개 구) 등이 넓은 분포를 보였다. 행정구역 중 가장 다양한 생태계교란식물이 출현한 지역은 강서구(8종)와 북구(8종)이며, 인위적 간섭이 높으면서 다양한 서식처가 존재하는 지역들로 확인되었다. 부산광역시의 종별 서식처 환경정보가 수집되었다. 본 연구를 통한 결과는 부산광역시 내 생태계교란식물의 현황파악과 더불어 효율적 관리와 확산 방지를 위한 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Inflorescence, stem, and leaf samples of lettuce grown in a greenhouse in spring and autumn seasons were assayed for sesquiterpene lactones (SLs) content by high performance liquid chromatography. The concentrations of SLs were significantly higher in the inflorescences followed by upper leaf and stem compared to the other plant parts in most of the samples. SLs content (sum of lactucin and lactucopicrin) in various tissues of lettuce cultivated in spring season varied from 5.7 to 22.5 fold ranging from $27.4{\mu}g/g$ dry weight (DW) in the upper stem (cultivar "PI 176588") as the lowest to as high as $2,292.0{\mu}g/g$ DW in the inflorescence (cultivar "709849-1"). During autumn cultivation, the concentration of SLs varied from 2.0 to 14.4 fold ranging from as low of $32.4{\mu}g/g$ DW in the lower stem (cultivar "PI176588") to as high of $838.0{\mu}g/g$ DW in the upper leaf (cultivar "Dambaesangchu"). Higher lactucin (1.2 to 5.6 fold) and lactucopicrin (1.1 to 3.9 fold) concentration was observed during spring compared to autumn cultivation in most of the samples. SLs content in various organs of lettuce increases from the basal plant part going upwards. As lactucin and lactucopicrin are the major SLs which affects the sensory property of lettuce, their quantitative variation in the lettuce cultivars is useful for breeding new varieties with better consumer acceptance.
