Research Institute (HARI), NTCS, RDA, in 2004. This cultivar has a short grain shape and about 123 days growth duration from trans-planting to harvesting under the reclaimed saline area of the south-western and the mid-western coastal plain and Honam plai

Unkwang is a newjaponica rice cultivar developed from the cross between Sobibyeo (Iksan435), high yield and coldtolerance cultivar and Cheolweon 54, early maturity cultivar at Honam Agricultural Reaserch Institute (HARI), NICS, RDA, m2004. This cultivar h

Genetic study on amy lose content and alkali digestion (AD) Pattern of rice grain was conducted using Fi, BCiFi and Fzpopulations of a reciprocal cross between a high-amylose mutant rice cultivar, Goami 2 and its progenitor variety, Ilpumbyeo. Fiseeds of

Each parent, P1 and P2, ten F1 hybrids among 5 parents, eight F2, B1 (F1 × P1), and B2 (F1 × P2were evaluated for spikelet fertility related to cold tolerance in cold-water irrigated plot. Heterosis for spikelet fertility varied from8.6% to 60.5% with a m

Manpung is a new japonica rice cultivar developed from three-way cross between Nakdongbyeo, Iri390 and Milyang111 by the rice breeding team of National Honam Agricultural Experiment Station (NHAES), RDA in 2000. This cultivar has a short grain shape and a

In order to obtain the genetic information on rachis traits of rice panicle, half diallel analysis for primary and secondary rachis branches was conducted using six crosses of F₁s from four parents. Both additive and dominant gene effects were

Conventional breeding method was used to pyramid three bacterial blight resistance genes, Xa1,Xa2and Xa3. Breeding lines with two and three resistance genes were developed and tested for resistance to the bacterial blight pathogen. Homozygous Fplants with
