A new soybean cultivar for soy-paste, ‘Daeyang’, was developed from the cross among ‘Jangyeobkong’, ‘Hwaeomputkong’ and ‘Suwon192’ by the soybean breeding team at the National Institute of Crop Science (NICS) in 2007. A promising line, SS97214-80-1, was selected and named this line ‘Milyang163’. It was prominent and had good result from regional adaptation yield trials (RYT) for three years from 2005 to 2007 and released as the name of ‘Daeyang’. It has a determinate growth habit, purple flower, grey pubescence, yellow seed coat, yellow hilum, large spherical seed (25.2 g per 100 seeds). ‘Daeyang’ is resistant to soybean mosaic virus and moderately resistant to bacterial pustule, the major soybean disease in Korea. The average yield of ‘Daeyang’ was 2.58 ton per hectare in the regional yield trials (RYT) carried out for three years from 2005 to 2007 which was 3 percent higher than the check variety, ‘Taekwang’.
