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

“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

Molecular markers were used to map and characterize quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for traits related to cold tolerance in an intrasubspecif ic backcross population of r ice. The parents of the cross were a cold susceptible Tongil-type cultivar 'Milyang23

The mode of inheritance and allelic relationship of resistance genes in a Korean landrace, Guju and a Korean weedy rice, Geumleungaengmi 33 were studied using Korean isolate (HB9101, race K1) of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae. The analysis of F₁

Resistance genes to the blast pathogen (Pyricularia grisea Sacc.) were mapped using a recombinant inbred population consisting of 231 lines derived from a cross between the japonica parents, ‘Suwon365’ and Chucheongbyeo. Phenotypic analysis showed that Su
