The genetic base was defined as the ancestral pool from which crop varieties were derived, and was used to characterize genetic diversity in crop breeding. Number of primary parents used between 1913 and 2002 in Korean soybean breeding programs was 65 and
A new vegetable soybean cultivar ‘Shillok’ was released by the National Crop Experiment Station, RDA, in 2000. The crossing between Suwon 163 and Jinpumkong 2 was made in the summer season of 1991. The breeding line, SS91809-B-24-4-1, was selected and eva
A new soybean variety “Jangwon” was released by the National Crop Experiment Station, RDA, in 2000. This variety was derived from the crossing between Pokwangkong and SS84040, the elite breeding line with large seed, in the summer season, 1989. The breedi
A new soybean variety “Geomjeongkong 3” was released by the National Crop Experiment Station, RDA, in 2001. This variety was derived from the cross between Shinano-kuro and SNU78010, the elite breeding line with large seed, in the summer season, 1990. The
Mananbyeo was developed from a three way cross ilyang110/Yeongdeog7//Milyang110 in 1999. It has short growing duration about 71 days from seeding to heading and short culm length of 75 cm. It has almost similar number of panicles per hill , spikelets per
This study was carried out to establish the analysis condition for oligosaccharides of soybeans (Glycine max L.) and to assay quantitative evaluation of oligosaccharide contents in soybean varieties and soybean sprouts. 55% acetonitrile solution used as a
Lipoxygenase might be associated with seed deterioration by catalyzing the incorporation of molecular oxygen into fatty acids and generating free radicals. This study was performed to determine whether seed lipoxygenase activity would alter soybean seed longevity. In this study, germination percentage of lipoxygenase-lacking cultivar Jinpumkong2 (lx1lx1lx2lx2lx3lx3) was lower than that of Taekwangkong (Lx1Lx1Lx2Lx2Lx3Lx3). Segregation ratio for the three lipoxygenase isozymes of the F2-derived from the cross between Taekwangkong and Jinpumkong2 was fitted to 9 (Lx1Lx2Lx3) : 3 (Lx1Lx2lx3) : 3 (lxllx2Lx3) : 1 (lx1lx2lx3), suggesting the tight linkage between the Lx1 and Lx2 loci. Germination percentages varied widely but not differed among lipoxygenase isozyme types of F3 seeds before and after accelerated aging. Seed coat of Jinpumkong2 was damaged severely following accelerated aging, whereas that of Taekwangkong was not. Thus, seed of lipoxygenase-lacking soybean cultivar, Jinpumkong2 showed greater deterioration compared with that of the normal Taekwangkong. However, the presence or absence of lipoxygenase activity had no effect on soybean germination
