  • Many researchers have been studied for the automatic chromosome karyotype classification and analysis. For the automatic classify the each chromosome which is the image in microscope, it is necessary to process the sub-procedure, ie. image pre-processing, implementing karyotype classifier. The image pre-processing proceeded the each chromosome separation, the noise exception and the feature parameter extraction. The extracted morphological feature parameter were the centromeric index(C.I.), the relative length ratio(R.L.), and the relative area ratio(R.A.). In this paper, the fuzzy classifier was implemented for the human chromosome karyotype classification. The extracted morphological feature parameter were used in the input parameter of fuzzy classifier. We studied about the selection of the membership function for the optimal fuzzy classifier in each chromosome groups.

  • A karyotype of cytotype BB plant in Scilla scilloides Complex was established and the frequency of B-chromosomes were investigated. Chromosome complements of BB genome were composed of five pairs of subtelocentric and four pairs of metacentric chromosomes. Chromosome 1 has satellite with nucleolar organizer. Polymorphism was found in chromosome 2. The karyotype of cytotype BB will be available for analysis of genome composition in various cytotypes of S. scilloides Complex. The frequency of B-chromosome was 78.6%. Numbers of B-chromosome ranged from 1 to 4 and plants with 2B-chromosomes were predominant (57.2%). Two type of B-chromosomes, F and F', were found; F is a large iso-chromosome and F' a small one.

  • Karyotype of the ricessh Orygias latipes (Temminck et Schlegel) was investigated using 151 specimens of eleven populations in the southern Korea. Based on the karyotype analysis, two distinct chromosomal groups were found. One group, occurring in the Kum River, the Mankyong River, the Dongjin River, the Ysngsan River and the SEmjin River had a diploid chromosome number of 46 and arm number of 70, which contained one pair of "large" metacentric chromosomes. The other group, occurring in the Tamjin River, the Hyongsan River andthe all four island populations observed had a diploid chromosome number of 48 and arm number of 68. These results showed that 0. latipes of 6 inland populations was identical with the Chinese population in diploid number, arm number and presence of "large" metacentric chromosome, while the present species of island populations ana populations of the Tamjn R. and Hyongsan R. was similar to the Japanese population in chromosome number and arm number. The karyotype variation in populations indicated that karyotypes will probably provide useful information in studying zoogeography of this species.phy of this species.

  • The research on chromosomes is very significant in cytogenetics since genes of the chromosomes control revelation of the inheritance plasma. The human chromosome analysis is widely used to study leukemia, malignancy, radiation hazard, and mutagen dosimetry as well as various congenital anomalies such as Down's, Klinefelter's, Edward's, and Patau's syndrome. The framing and analysis of the chromosome karyogram, which requires specific cytogenetic knowledge is most important in this field. Many researches on automated chromosome karyotype analysis methods have been carried out, some of which produced commercial systems. However, there still remains much room to improve the accuracy of chromosome classification and to reduce the processing time in real clinic environments. In this paper, we proposed a hierarchical artificial neural network(HANN) to classify the chromosome karyotype. We extracted three or four chromosome morphological feature parameters such as centromeric index, relative length ratio, relative area ratio, and chromosome length by preprocessing from ten human chromosome images. The feature parameters of five human chromosome images were used to learn HANN and the rest of them were used to classify the chromosome images. The experiment results show that the chromosome classification error is reduced much more than that of the other researchers using less feature parameters.

  • Karyotypes were established in the eight Korean native species of the genus Iris. Chromosome numbers were 2n=50 in I. koreana and 2n=42 in I. uniflora var. carinata and their karyotype formulas were K = 2n = 50 = 14m + 28sm + 8st and K = 2n = 42 = 16m + 26sm, respectively. I. dichotoma and I. pseudoacorus were diploids of 2n=34. However, they showed different karyotype formulas: K = 2n = 34 = 26m + 6sm + 2st in I. dichotoma and K = 2n = 34 = 8m + 24sm + 2st in I. pseudoacorus. I. setosa, and I. pallasii var. chinensis carried the same chromosome numbers of 2n=40, but they showed different patterns of karyotype formula: K = 2n = 40 = 22m + 14sm + 4st in I. setosa and K = 2n = 40 = 26m + 12sm + 2st in I. pallasii var. chinensis. I. sanguinea was a diploid of 2n=28 and the karyotype formula was K = 2n = 28 = 14m + 14sm. I. ensata var. spontanea was a diploid of 2n=24 and the karyotype formula was K = 2n = 24 = 10m + 14sm. Each species showed characteristic chromosome composition with a pair of satellite chromosome except I. koreana with three pairs of satellite chromosomes. The chromosomes of I. dichotoma and I. uniflora were comparatively short, while the chromosomes of I. ensata were remarkably bigger than those of other species. These cytological data will give a useful information for the identification and breeding program of the Iris plants.

  • This study was performed to investigate the toxicity of ochratoxin A (OA) to the chromosomes of $K_{562}$ tumor cell-line in vitro. The results of this experiment were as follows: 1) Chromosomes of $K_{562}$tumor cell-line resulted in pseudotriploidy on the control group. Chromosomes of $K_{562}$ tumor cell-line treated with OA resulted in heteroploidy compared with the control group. The mean number of chromosomes in the karyotype of the control group (60) were 7 in the A group, 5 in the B group, 20 in the C+X group, 7 in the D group, 9 in the E group, 6 in the F group, and 6 in the G+Y group respectively. The number of chromosomes were increased as follows: Treating with $0.7{\mu}M$ OA, the number of chromosomes were increased one in E and F group, two in G+Y group compared with control group. In treated with $1.5{\mu}M$ OA, the increasing number of chromosome was one in E and F group. In treated with $3{\mu}M$ OA, E and F group was increased one and G+Y group were increased two chromosomes compared with control group. But in treated with $6{\mu}M$ OA, the number of chromosome in G+Y group was decreased one. 2) $K_{562}$ tumor cell line treated with OA showed Philadelphia-Chromosome in the long arm of the G group karyotype chromosome. The rate of chromosome aberration in $K_{562}$ tumor cell-line treated with OA was 77% in $0.7{\mu}M$ OA group, 71% in $1.5{\mu}M$ OA group, 82% in $3{\mu}M$ OA group and 94% in $6{\mu}M$ OA group respectively. The rate of chromosome aberration of $K_{562}$ tumor cell-line treated with OA was high in the high dose level of OA, and chromosome aberration of $K_{562}$ tumor cell-line treated with OA showed deletion, minute, dicentric-chromosome and translocation in the long arm of the C-group karyotype. As a result of this study, the toxicity of OA showed deletion, minute, dicentric-chromosome and translocation in the long arm of the C-group karyotype, and then, the toxicity of OA resulted in the damage to RNA and protein synthesis in $K_{562}$ tumor cell-line, and the C-group karyotype of $K_{562}$ tumor cell-line was target of the toxicity of OA.

  • The karyotype analysis of Kichulchoia brevifasciata was carried out, known as an end-angered small endemic cobitid fish of Korea. Five females and one male were collected from Geum-san-myeon, Goheung-gun, Jeollanam-do, Korea and its gill, kidney and digestive tract tissues were treated by flame-drying technique. The karyotype was found to be 2n= 48 from 33 cells; 16 meta-submetacentric and 32 subtelo-telocentric chromosomes; 64 FN (fundamental number). This karyotype showed a remarkably different karyotype formula from Niwaella multifasciata which is closely related to this species.
