In chronic renal failure, to reduce the burden on the kidneys, it is necessary to provide patients with therapy based on a low-protein diet. To cope with this situation, low and easy to-digest protein rice variety is helpful. ‘Geongyang2’, low glutelins rice cultivar, was developed by the National Institute of Crop Science (NICS), RDA, Miryang, Korea in 2012. ‘Geongyang2’was derived from a cross between ‘Junambyeo’and‘Chugoku 173’ as a source of low glutelin and amylose. The pedigree of ‘Geongyang2’was YR24174-B-B-B-B-46 and designated as the ‘Milyang262’ in 2009. The local adaptability test of ‘Milyang262’ was carried out at six locations from 2010 to 2012. ‘Geongyang2’ is a mid-maturing ecotype with 65cm in culm length and the number of spikelet/panicle and 1,000 grain weight of brown rice were slightly lower compared to those of ‘Nampyeongbyeo’. ‘Geongyang2’ is resistant to bacterial blight and virus disease while susceptible to major insect and pest. The glutelin and amylose contents of ‘Geongyang2’ were 63.1% and 11.5%, respectively. The milled rice yield of ‘Gyeongyang2’ is 4.61MT/ha at the ordinary transplanting of the local adaptability test. This cultivar would be adaptable to the plain paddy field of middle, honam and yeongnam province of Korea under ordinary cropping system.
