1. Ds 삽입변이체 3,000계통으로부터 제초제 저항성 1,874계통을 선발하고 농업적 주요 특성으로서 출수일수, 간장, 수수, 수장, 엽장 등 5가지 형질에 대하여 조사한 바, 조사된 5가지 형질에 대하여 원품종인 동진벼에 비하여 매우 다양한 변이폭을 보여주었다. 2. 농업적 유용성과 관련된 수장이 길고, 조기출수, 수수가 많은 변이체 뿐만 아니라 형태학적 변이를 보이는 twin seedling, dwarf, early heading, strip albino, liguleless 등 변이체가 다수 발견됨으로서 육종적 이용 및 유전자 기능해석을 위한 유용한 집단으로서 유용성을 보여주었다. 3. 서던분석 결과, 벼 게놈상에서 Ds는 평균 2 copy로 전이되었으며 조직부위별로 GUS의 발현을 조사한 결과 잎, 뿌리 및 화기관등에서 약 3.9%가 발현되었다. 이 삽입변이체에서 나타난 다양한 변이형질의 주요 농업적 특성과 GUS 발현의 재현성을 위해 다음 세대의 전개를 통한 후대분석이 필요하다.

It is important to understand pedigree of rice cultivars commonly used for breeding. In this paper, pedigree tables for tracking the pedigree of 17 representative rice cultivars recommended by Rural development Adminstration (RDA) were completed and analyzed using two kinds of web database system; 'IRIS' and 'RRDB'. Seven cultivars, namely, 'Sangmibyeo', 'Ilpumbyeo', 'Saegewhabyeo', 'Surabyeo', 'Shindongjinbyeo', 'Ilmibyeo' and 'Jungwhabyeo' had 'Koshihikari' on the pedigree of their ancestor. Besides 'Koshihikari', the most feguently used ancestral germplasms among the high quality rice cultivars were 'Fujisaka 5', 'Kameno o' and 'Asahi', 'Fujisaka 5' was used as ancestral parent in 12 out of 17 cultivars. Interestingly, 'Kameno o' was used in pedigree of 16 out of 17 high quality varieties and 'Asahi' was used in the ancestral pedigree of all 17 varieties. 'Hwayeongbyeo' was used as one of parent in the breeding of 'Dongjin 1', 'Hwabongbyeo', 'Saegewhabyeo' and 'Junambyeo'. 'Ilpumbyeo' was used in the breeding pathway of 'Junambyeo' and 'Saegewhabyeo', 'Mangeumbyeo' itself was not enlisted as one of high quality rice cultivars, but was used as a breeding parent of three high quality varieties, namely, 'Saegewhabyeo', 'Hwabongbyeo' and 'Nampyeongbyeo'. Incorporated with evaluation data, pedigree will provide a valuable chance to genealogical tracking of agronomic traits such as disease resistance, grain quality and etc.

Lysine is the first essential amino acid for optimal nutrient quality in rice grain. For the narrow genetic diversities of lysine contents in rice, somaclonal variation was the source of mutation in our breeding program. Biochemical selection was conducted using 1 mM S-(2-aminoethyl) cysteine followed by two passages of 5 mM lysine plus threonine in the callus subculture medium. The lysine contents in endosperm of all progenies recovered from the biochemical selection were higher than those of their donor cultivar 'Hwayeongbyeo'. These elevated lysine levels of mutants were successfully transmitted to M4 generation. The lysine contents in endosperm varied 3.85 to 4.80% compare to their donor cultivar 'Hwayeongbyeo' was 3.85%. Three of high-lysine germplasms, Lys-l, Lys-2 and Lys-7 were selected by biochemical selection and rapid screening methods. DNA analysis showed that a new insertion of Tos 17 which mapped to rice chromosome 11 on the high-lysine mutant, Lys-2.
