나주재래종과 새로이 선발된 나주2호의 지역별 재배시험 결과, 초장은 나주2호가 다소 컸으며, 분지수는 나주재래종이 나주2호 보다 많은 경향이었다. 엽면적은 나주2호가 더 넓었으며, 엽장폭비도 나주2호가 더 크게 나타나 둥근 잎 특성의 안정성을 보였다. 두 계통의 지상부 생중과 건중은 큰 차이가 없었으나, 지상부 전체에 대한 엽의 무게 비율은 나주2호가 더 높아 색소수율면에서 유리하였다. 인디고(indigo) 성분과 니람(泥藍) 함량은 나주2호가 나주재래종 보다 높게 나타났으며 실크로 생엽 이용 염색을 한 결과 청색을 더 많이 나타냈다. 따라서 엽 수량이 높고 색소 품질이 좋은 나주2호가 쪽 재배에 유리한 계통으로 판단되었다.
Indigo crop, Persicaria tinctoria H. Gross is an annual plant containing natural colorant, the blue dye indigo, and local cultivars had been cultivated to produce natural indigo for textile dyeing in Korea since ancient times. Naju No. 2 is a new mass-selected line from the mother population, Naju Local cultivar. In this study, two breeding lines of Naju Local and Naju No. 2, have been cultivated in four different locations, the South regions of Korea, to compare plant growth and yield characteristics between two lines. Naju No. 2 was higher in plant height, and Naju Local has more 1st branches. Naju No. 2 has larger leaf area and higher width/length ratio of leaf, showing the round leaf type as morphological stable character without regional differences. Though there was considerable regional variation in fresh and dry top weight of harvested plant, the significant difference of plant weight between two lines were not shown. The ratio of leaf to total shoot of dry weight of Naju No. 2 was higher than one of Naju Local, indicating that Naju No. 2 has better yielding of colorant which is synthesized mostly in leaf. Naju No. 2 contained more Niram (crude indigo extract) and indigo, and showed much blueness at dyeing of silk using fresh leaves than Naju Local. We concluded that a new line, Naju No. 2 could be a superior cultivar due to having higher leaf yield and better quality of natural colorant than Naju local cultivar.
