"주남조생"은 소득작물 전 후작에 적응하는 벼를 육성하고자, '98/'99년 동계에 밥맛이 좋은 것으로 알려진 일본의 고시히까리에 밀양165호(주남벼)를 2회 여교배하여 육성한 조생종 단기성 품종으로 주요특성과 수량성을 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 주남조생의 영남 평야지의 소득작물 후작 만기재배에서 8월 26일로 "금오벼"보다 6일 빠른 조생종 품종으로 주당수수는 12개로 금오벼보다 2개 많은 편이고, 수당립수는 약간 적은편이며 현미천립중은 금오벼보다
Junamjosaeng is a new japonica rice cultivar developed in 2006 from a cross between Milyang165‡3 and Koshihikari at the Department of Functional Crop Science, NICS, RDA. This cultivar is suitable for the double cropping system (i. e., before and after the cash crop). Heading date of Junamjosaeng is 6 days earlier than Keumobyeo under the late transplanting cultivation on July 10. It has a high grain fertility under cold conditions and low premature heading. One of the distinguishing characteristics of this variety is its resistance to major diseases like leaf blast, bacterial blight races (K1, K2, K3) and rice stripe virus disease. However, it showed susceptibility to major insect pests. Milled rice kernels are translucent with non glutinous endosperm and have 6.7% protein and 19.8% amylose contents. Milling recovery of head rice is 75.7%. The palatability of cooked rice is better than Keumobyeo. The milled rice yield of Junamjosaeng in local adaptability tests after harvest of the cash crop was 4.43 tons ha-1. This cultivar is suitable for planting in the plain paddy fields of Honam and Yeonnam regions in Korea.
