Amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) is one of molecular marker technique based on DNA and is extremely useful in detection of high polymorphism between closely related genotypes like Korean wheat cultivars. Six Korean wheat cultivar specific marker sets have been developed from inter simple sequence repeat (ISSR) analysis and we can identify the 13 Koran wheat cultivars form other cultivars using six that (Son et al., 2013). We used four combinations of primer sets in our AFLP analysis for developing additional cultivar specific markers in Korean wheat. Twenty-one of the AFLP bands were isolated from ACG/M-CAC primer combination and 19 bands were isolated from E-AGC/M-CTG primer combination, respectively. We used forty bands to design sequence characterized amplified region (SCAR) primer pairs for Korean wheat cultivar identification. Only one of 40 amplified primer pairs, C2, were able to use for wheat cultivar identification. The DNA band of 215bp length was amplified by C2 primer pairs in ten cultivars, Eunpa, Olgeuru, Gobun, Saeol, Milsung, Sinmichal, Jokyung, Sugang, Goso, and Joah. Then C2 primer was applied to these primer sets as newly SCAR marker, six cultivars are identifying from other cultivars, additionally. Finally, to use the C2 and six primer sets, 19 Korean wheat cultivars are identified.

Characteristics of agronomy, especially good yield productivity is very important in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) as human food crop. Development of elite cultivar having good traits is required for food stability. In 2013, a new wheat line called Iksan370 has been developed by the National Institute of Crop Science, RDA. Iksan370 has hard red winter wheat characteristics and better features like resistance to biotic, abiotic stress and higher yield ability than Keumkang. Heading and maturing date were delayed about ten days and period to flowering date was shorter three or four days than Keumkang. Culm and spike length of Iksan370 were 95cm and 15.3cm, averagely. This means that culm and spike length were longer than Keumkang (79cm and 7cm, respectively). It showed higher milling rate (75.5%), protein content (13.5%) and SDS-sedimentation volume (77.5ml) than Keumkang. Genotypes of six genes, GBSSA, B, D, PPO18, Pina and Pinb, were represented that were similar to Keumkang, respectively. Average yield of Iksan370 in the preliminary trial test was 6.61 tons/ha in upland. We expect that yield productivity and farm income were increased by Iksan370.
