’Jungmo-2007’ is a new two-rowed barley cultivar developed in 2011 with distinct growth and good quality characteristics, respectively, that earlier heading date, lodging tolerant and lots of tiller, high yielding, and lager kernel size, better grain assortment, higher diastic power and black malt property than those of check variety ‘Hopumbori’. This cultivar was tested the yield and regional adaptation trials for three years in 3 southern regions. The cultiavar was from artificial cross between ‘Prisma’ with short culm length and earlier maturity and ‘Milyang 114’ with high yielding and better malt quality. ‘Jungmo-2007’ showed shorten the stem length to 16% comparing with 91cm of the check, which increase the lodging tolerant. The heading date was earlier 2 to 3 days than the check. It showed larger grain character with 48.5g in 1,000 kernel weight that 45.0g of the check. 97% of grain assortment that is one of the major property for better malting was higher 2% than that of the check. The yield was higher 5% than that of the check. Most quality in raw grain and malt was similar to the check in protein content, germination potential, water sensitivity etc. Especially this cultivar has a higher diastic power as 226WK than 196WK of the check and the malt showed like a black malt appearance. These characteristics could used not for malt for beer making but other processed barley foods.

For obtain basic data for application on two-rowed malting barley breeding program, it was investigated that growth and diseases resistance to 353 varieties of Korean(114) and induced(239) genetic resources used in barley breeding in current. Investigated growth and diseases characters were major yield components and viral and powdery mildew resistant. Hopumbori was checked cultivar to comparing the growth characters of the materials. Domestic materials(DM) was superior to induced materials(IM) in heading time. The check was 1st May and 33% of DM was earlier to the date while only 7% of IM was before the date of check cultivar. In examination of late heading-date(late 6th May) ratio, IM showed more late maturity characteristics than DM. The tillering capacity was better in DM as 49% and 23% of IM in spike number per unit area, respectively. 58% of IM showed longer the spike length, while 20% of IM showed more kernel number per spike, respectively, than the check variety. It was a little resistant materials to viral disease. In powdery mildew resistance test, 51 materials showed resistant responses such as no infection or necrotic spots. The related resistant genes were assumed 5 genes, Mlg, Mla12, M1k+M1a9 and M1a1 or Mlg+M1(CP).
