A new soy sauce and soy paste soybean cultivar, “Hojang” was developed from the cross between HS12 (Jangyeobkong/Hwangkeumkong) and Suwon153 by the soybean breeding laboratory of the National Honam Agricultural Experiment Station (NHAES) in 2002. The prel

A new sprout-soybean variety, “Dagi” was developed from the cross between Namhaekong and D70-6545 by the soybean breeding laboratory of the National Honam Agricultural Experiment Station (NHAES) in 2002. The preliminary, advanced, and regional yield trial

A new soybean variety, “Sunam” was developed from the cross between Kosuzu and Bukwangkong by soybean breeding laboratory of the National Honam Agricultural Experiment Station (NHAES) in 2002. The preliminary, advanced, and regional yield trials for evalu

Molecular genetic markers have wide applicability for a various genetic analyses, and genetic mapping with PCR-based markers has identified many loci in the rice genome. This study was conducted to develop a genetic map of rice based on SSR and MITE-AFLP

Genetic diversity and soybean sprout-related traits were evaluated in a total of 72 soybean accessions (60 Glycine max, 7 Glycine soja, and 5 Glycine gracilis). 100-seed weight (SW) was greatly varied and ranged from 3.2g to 32.3g in 72 soybean accessions. Positive correlation was observed between GR and hypocotyl length (HL), whereas negative correlation was observed between SW and hypocotyl diameter (HD). Re-evaluation by discarding two soybean genotypes characterized with low GR indicated that much higher correlation of sprout yield (SY) with HD and SW. Based on the principal component analysis (PCA) for sprout-related traits, 57 accessions were classified. Soybean genotypes with better traits for sprout, such as small size of seeds and high SY, were characterized with high PCA 1 and PCA 2 values. The seed size in second is small but showed low GR and SY, whereas the third has large seed, high GR and more than 400% SY. In genetic similarity analysis using 60 SSR marker genotyping, 72 accessions were classified into three major and several minor groups. Nine of twelve accessions that were identified as the representatives of soybean for sprout based on PCA were in a group by the SSR marker analysis, indicating the SSR marker selection of parental genotypes for soybean sprout improvement program.

A new soy sauce and soy paste soybean variety, “Jinmi” was developed from the cross between HS12 (Jangyeobkong/Hwangkeumkong) and Mallikong by the soybean breeding team of the National Honam Agricultural Experiment Station in 2001. The preliminary, advanc

AFLP markers were successfully employed to detect genetic relationship and genetic variation within and between Oryza species. Analysis of 59 accessions of Oryza species with six AFLP prim er combinations detected a total num ber of 715 polym orphic bands
