The changes of pectoral muscle size (as an index of protein reserves) and fat reserves (as an index of lipid) were measured in wintering Dunlin during 1988-1989 on two estuaries located in the south coast of Korea. The mean of lean mass of February population was greater(11.8%) than that of October population. SMI of October population was greater(4.5%) than that of February population and lipid index of October population also greater(1.6 %) than that of February population. This, show that the body condition of October population is better than February population. The mean of fat and protein reserves of 22% of Dunlin arriving on October for their wintering were higher than that of others, this group seems to continue their migration to south further and 11 % of the wintering population seems to starve during winter.

보리의 월동전 초형에 따른 농업형질의 차이를 비교하고저 같은 교배조합에서 선발, 고정시킨 계통 및 교배친 10개를 공시하여 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 포복형에 비해서 직립형 계통은 출수기 및 성숙기가 빠르고, 간장은 컸으나 m2 당 수수, 수량성은 적었다. 또한 천입중, 정입률, 광투과율은 컸다. 2. 출수기는 성숙기, 수량과 정상관, 간장, 천입중, 정입률, 광투과율과 부상관이 있었다. 수량은 광투과율과 부상관이 인정되었다. 3. 월동전에 초형이 포복형이면서, 월동후 생육재생기가 빠르고 식간신장이 빠른 계통을 육성, 선발하는 것이 특히 내한성이 요구되는 지역에서 유리할 것으로 생각된다.
