A population ofrecombinant inbred lines derived from a cross between Ilpumbyeo, a blast-susceptibleyopowca cultivarofhigh eating-quality and high yield potential, and GL33, a blast-resistance/apowca weedy rice was used to identifv QTLs affect-ing importan

A recombinant inbred lines (RILs) consisting of 231 lines, derived from a japonica (Suweon365) and a japonica (Chu-cheongbyeo) rice, was used to investigate the genetic factors affecting cooking and eating quality of rice. Alkali digestion valueloci (QTLs

To ensure the durability of resistance to blast disease in high-quality japonica rice a long-term rice breeding project to develop a few blast-resistant multiline cultivars was carried out from 1987 to 1999. Seven resistance donors were selected based on

The genetic basis underlying heterosis for agronomic traits of rice under cold water irrigated field condition was investigated in the 143 RILs and 286 BC₁F₁ lines from the cross between a cold-susceptible variety, Milyang23 and a co

The elite rice cultivar, Suweon365, shows high level of leaf blast resistance. The number and chromosomal locations of genes conferring the resistance were detected by linkage analysis using DNA markers in the RILs from the cross between Suweon365 and Chu

Ilpumbyeo, a japonica rice cultivar which is known to have premium eating-quality, and high yield potential, but susceptible to rice blast disease was studied whether it has any specific rice blast resistance gene/QTL. Using CAPS markers which were develo

Genetic diversity of 94 japonica rice was assessed using 81 simple sequence repeat (SSR). All 81 SSR markers generated a total of 351 alleles. The number of alleles ranged from 1 to 16 with a mean of 4.3 alleles per SSR marker. Six of 81 SSR markers showe

“Jinpumbyeo” is a new japonica rice cultivar developed from a cross between lodging tolerant semi-dwarf plant type, SR14703-60-5-GH1 and high eating quality cultivar Suweon353 by the rice breeding team of National Crop Experiment Station, RDA made in 1987

"Seolhyangchalbyeo", an aromatic and glutinous rice cultivar, was developed by the rice breeding team of National Crop Experiment Station, RDA during the period from 1991 to 1999 and released in 2000. The cultivar is derived from a cross between Miyagaori

“Undoobyeo” is a japonica rice cultivar (Oryza sativa L.) developed by the rice breeding team in the National Crop Experiment Station, RDA, Suwon, Korea in 1998. Undoobyeo was derived from a cross between Odaebyeo and Jinbu 13 made during 1989/'90 winter

“Surabyeo” is a new japonica rice cultivar developed from a backcrossed combination between the F1 of “Suweon 345/ Kanto PL4” and “Suweon 345” of lodging tolerant, semi-dwarf, high-quality rice line by the rice breeding team of National Crop Experiment St

“Saechucheongbyeo” is a new japonica multiline for blast resistance, which was composed of equal proportions in seed weight of three near-isogenic lines of two combinations. The recurrent parent, “Chucheongbyeo”, was a high-quality rice cultivar with susc
