biotechnology and system biology. Fast and accurate sequencing of DNA can be
attained with modern instrument based technology. Next generation techniques and
marine omics (genomics, metagenomics, glycomics, transcriptomics, metabolomics, nutrigenomics, pharmacogenomics, bioinformatics, lipidomics, and toxic
genomics have been extensively discussed in the previous published book “Marine
Omics: Principles and applications” book for further reading (Kim 2016).
2.14 Chapter Summary and Conclusion
The field of marine biotechnology includes many unfamiliar terms and marine
organism names, as well as some species of marine plants and animals that do
not exist in Korea. Korean students may also encounter difficulties in understanding newly minted academic terminology that does not exist in Korean, or
does so only to an inadequate degree.
As a general science, the study of marine biotechnology requires first and
foremost an understanding of such basic disciplines as biology, genetics, biochemistry, microbiology, organic chemistry, and fisheries science.
To assist in understanding marine biotechnology, this chapter attempted to
focus on various basic aspects of genetics and other related areas. Because of
page limitations, an explanation of related terminology has been provided in the
Appendix for reference.
