Hopum is a new japonica rice cultivar developed from the cross between Milyang165 and F1 crossing Milyang165 and Iksan438 at Department of Rice and Winter Cereal Crop, NICS, RDA, in 2006. This cultivar has a short grain shape and about 141 days growth duration from direct seeding to harvesting in the southern plain including Chungcheong province. This cultivar has short culm and spikelet number per panicle is similar to that of Nampyeongbyeo, while filled grain rate is lower than standard variety. This cultivar has medium size of brown rice and shows moderate resistance to leaf blast, to bacterial blight pathogens of K1, K2 and K3 and stripe virus disease but susceptible to major virus diseases and insect pests. The milled kernel of Hopum is translucent with non-glutinous endosperm. Protein and amylose content of Hopum is about 6.5% and 18.7%, respectively. This cultivar has better palatability of cooked rice than Chucheongbyeo harvested in Gyeongki province. Its milling recovery (76.8%) and percentage of perfect-shaped milled rice (94.7%) were higher than Nampyeongbyeo. The milled rice yield of Hopum was 5.83 MT/ha (15% higher than Juan) under wet-direct seeding, 5.66 MT/ha (8% higher than Juan) under dry-direct seeding, and 6.00 MT/ha (8% higher than Nampyeong) under ordinary transplanting cultivation. “opum”would be adaptable for ordinary transplanting and direct seeding in the southern plain including Chungcheong province.

Manna is a new japonica rice cultivar developed from the cross between Iksan438 and Ilmibyeo by the rice breeding team of Department of Rice and Winter Cereal Crop, RDA, in 2005. This cultivar has a short grain shape and about 97 days growth duration from late transplanting to harvesting under Korean climatic conditions. It is resistant to lodging with average 70 cm of culm length. The milled kernels of Manna are translucent with non-glutinous endosperm. It has about 19% amylose content and good palatability of cooked rice compared with Geumobyeo. This cultivar shows resistance to leaf blast and neck blast but susceptibility to bacterial blight and stripe virus diseases. The milled rice yield potential of Manna is about 5.05 MT/ha under the late transplanting cultivation. Manna would be adaptable for the middle and Honam plain of Korea.

Culm length of this cultivar is 78 cm and the number of spikelet per panicle is similar to that of the check cultivar, Nampyeongbyeo, while filled grain rate is lower than the check variety. This cultivar is moderately resistant to leaf blast, bacterial blight pathogens of K1, K2 and K3 and stripe virus but susceptible to major virus diseases and insect pests. Milled kernel of Hwanggeumnodeul is translucent with non-glutinous endosperm. This cultivar has about 5.7% and 18.6% of protein and amylose contents, respectively. Palatability of cooked rice of Hwanggeumnodeul is similar to Nampyeongbyeo. Its milling recovery and head rice were 75.6% and 90.0%, respectively. Hwanggeumnodeul yielded 5.69 and 5.61 MT/ha in milled rice at the under wet-direct and dry-direct seeding conditions, respectively which are 17% and 12% higher than the check variety, Juanbyeo. It yielded 5.86 MT/ha, 8% higher than Nampyeongbyeo at the standard fertilizer level of the ordinary transplanting cultivation. “wanggeumnodeul”would be adaptable for ordinary transplanting as well as direct seeding in the southern plain including Chungcheong province.

“ongjin2”is a new japonica rice cultivar developed from the cross between Milyang165 with short culm and lodging resistance and F1 plant of Iksan438, HR14018-B-1-1 and Iksan435 with high palatability at Honam Agricultural Research Institute (HARI), NICS, RDA in 2005. This cultivar has short grain shape and about 143 days growth duration from direct seeding to harvesting under Korean climate condition. The milled kernels of “ongjin2”is translucent with non-glutinous endosperm. It has about 19.3% of amylose content and better palatability of cooked rice compared with “ampyeongbyeo” This cultivar shows high resistance reaction to the bacterial blight pathogene race from K1 to K3, blast and stripe virus but susceptible to insect pests. “ongjin2”yields about 5.71 and 5.74 MT/ha under the wet direct seeding and the transplanting at standard fertilizer level. “ongjin2”would be adaptable for the southern plain area of Korea.

벼 품종 간 이화학적 특성 및 취반특성에 관여하는 요인을 구명하여 취반특성별 품종 군을 분류하고 밥맛이 좋은 품종의 취반특성 요인을 구명하여 고품질 품종이 갖는 미질 요인을 파악함으로써 고품질 품종육성 및 품종선발의 지표로 삼고자 실험을 수행하였는바 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 백도는 대야벼, 호평벼, 고시히까리가 높았고 현미의 경도는 일품벼가 낮았으며 신동진벼가 가장 높았다. 2. 호화점도 특성중 호평벼와 고시히까리는 대야, 호안벼에 비하여 강하점도가 높고 치반점도, 응집점도가 낮았으며 특히 고시히까리는 최고점도, 강하점도가 매우 높은 반면 치반점도와 응집점도가 낮았다. 반면 일품, 운광벼는 다른 품종보다 강하점도는 낮고 치반점도가 높았다. 3. 품종별 물성 요인에서는 밥알의 경도는 호평벼가 다른 품종보다 유의적으로 낮았고 응집성이 높았다 반면 점성 및 부착성, 균형도는 고시히까리가 높았다. 4. 밥맛을 간접적으로 평가할 수 있는 기계적 식미치 검정에서는 대야벼 호안벼가 낮고 일품벼, 운광벼가 높았다.

밥의 식미관련 특성에 영향을 미치는 요인을 알아보기 위해 쌀의 물리적인 특성과 식미치와의 상관을 비교하였다. 공시재료로 일품, 호안, 호진, 신동진 및 고시히까리를 사용하여, 식미치, 공극률, 팽창률, 가열시간, 색도, 수분흡수율, 경도, 찰기 둥을 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 식미치가 높은 고시히까리의 경우 공극률 및 팽창률은 19.0 및 286~% 로 낮은 값을 보인 반면, 찰기 및 가열시간에서는 높은 값을 보였고, 수분흡수율은 고 시히까리 및 신동진이 일품, 호진 및 호안보다 느렸다. 2. 팽창률(-0.3897), 공극률(-0.8736) 및 수분 흡수속도(-0.9601)는 식미치와 부의 상관을 보인반면, 가열시간(0.8608), Waxiness(0.9198)및 경도(0.4779)는 식미 치와 정의 상관성을 보였다. 3. 식미치에 대한 각 물리적 특성들의 기여도에서는 수분 흡수속도가 35.9~% 로 기여도가 가장 크고, 다음으로 공극률(22.7~%) , 가열시간(17~%) 및 찰기(8.2~%) 순 이었다.
