고품질 콩 품종육성 및 유전자원 연구의 기초자료로 활용하기 위해 국내 콩 주요품종 46계통 및 보존 유전자원 517 계통의 지방함량과 지방산 조성의 변이양상을 분석한 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 한국산 콩 주요 품종의 지방함량 범위는 15.8%~20.3% 였으며, 평균 18.2%를 나타내었고, 지방함량이 가장 낮은 품종은 1986년에 육성된 보광콩이, 가장 높은 품종은 2000년도에 육성된 새별콩으로 조사되었다. 2. 한국산 콩 주요 품종 46계통의 지방산 조성분석 결과 포화지방산인 C16:0 및 C18:0의 경우 각각 8.96~13.23% 및 2.55~4.20% 범위로 존재하였고, 불포화지방산인 C18:1, C18:2 및 C18:3의 범위는 각각 16.33~36.41%,42.32~58.84% 및 6.98~10.72% 를 나타내었다. 3. 국내 보존 유전자원 517계통의 지방산 조성을 분석한 결과 C16:0은 8.50%(IT 154681)~14.78% (IT 154558), C18:0은 1.86%(IT 022331)~4.78% (KLG 10738), C18:1은 13.29%(IT 178710)~43.30% (IT 154657), C18:2는 38.21%(IT 156004)~61.51% (IT 178710) 및 C18:3이 5.03(IT 188085)%~11.48% (IT 153412)의 범위를 나타내었다. 4. 콩 함유 지방산 중 포화지방산에 속하는 C16:0 및 C18:0은 불포화지방산인 C18:1과 고도의 부의 상관을 나타내었으며, 불포화지방산인 C18:1은 다른 종류의 불포화지방산인 C18:2 및 C18:3과 고도의 부의 상관을 나타내었고, C18:2와 C18:3 사이에는 고도의 정의상관이 인정되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

The objectives of this study was to determine the oil contents and fatty acid compositions of soybean germplasms including major Korean cultivars, and to provide the basic information of fatty acid composition for development high quality soybean varieties. Among 46 Korean major cultivated soybean samples, the oil contents were varied from 15.8% to 20.3%, and the average oil content was 18.2%. Crude oil content of cv. Saebyolkong (20.3%) was the highest among that of other cultivated soybeans. Likely many other oils of plant origin, most fatty acids in soybean are unsaturated. The highest percentage of fatty acid in soybean was linoleic acid (18:2), followed in a decreasing order by oleic (C18:1), palmitic (C16:0), linolenic (C18:3), and stearic acid (C18:0). The composition of C18:1 and C18:2 fatty acids among 563 soybean germplasms and cultivars which were positively correlated with nutritional quality of edible vegetable oil, were ranged 13.29~43.30%~;and~;38.21~61.51% , respectively, and the C18:3 which were negatively correlated with flavor quality were varied from 5.03% to 11.48%. Also, the composition of C16:0 and C18:0 which were known to raise total cholesterol levels in human serum were ranged 8.50~14.78%~;and~;1.86~4.78% respectively. On the other hand, the range of fatty acid composition among 46 Korean major soybean cultivars has been investigated to be: C16:0, 8.96~13.23% ; C18:0, 2.55~4.20% ; C18:1, 16.33~36.41% ; C18:2, 42.32~58.84% ; C18:3, 6.98~10.72% . Among the 563 germplasms tested, there are significant correlations among unsaturated fatty acids: negative between C18:1 and C18:2 (r=-0.961**) or C18:3 (r=-0.756**), and positive between C18:2 and C18:3 (r=0.608**). Also, the C18:1 was negatively correlated with saturated fatty acids, C16:0 (r=-0.231**) and C18:0 (r=-0.479**).
