"금오3호"는 소득작물 전 후작에 적응하는 벼를 육성하고자, 1997년 국립식량과학원 기능성작물부에서 내도복성인 농안벼에 내만식성인 신금오벼가 여교배된 F_1 개체에 도열병에 저항성이고 단기성인 YR15727-B-B-B-102 계통을 교배하여 YR19124 조합을 작성 하였다. 이후 집단 및 계통육종법으로 YR19124-B-B-B-69-3 계통을 선발하고 밀양201호라는 계통명으로 지역적응성검정 시험에 공시한 결과, 그 주요특성과 수량성은 다음과 같다
Rice blast resistance is considered one of the most important traits in rice breeding and the disease, caused by Magnaporthe grisea Barr, has brought significant crop losses annually. Moreover, breakdown of resistance normally occurs in two to five years after cultivar release, thus a more durable resistance is needed for better control of this disease. We developed a new variety, Keumo3, which showed strong resistance to leaf blast. It was tested in 2003 to 2007 at fourteen blast nursery sites covering entire rice-growing regions of South Korea. It showed resistance reactions in 12 regions and moderate in 2 regions without showing susceptible reactions. Durability test by sequential planting method indicated that this variety had better resistance. Results showed that Keumo3 was incompatible against 19 blast isolates with the exception of KI101 by artificial inoculation. To understand the genetic control of blast resistance in rice cultivar Keumo3 and facilitate its utilization, recombinant inbred lines (RIL) consisting of 290 F5 lines derived from Akidagomachi/Keumo3 were analyzed and genotyped with Pizt InDel marker zt56591. The recombination value between the marker allele of zt56591 and bioassay data of blast nursery test was 1.1%. These results indicated that MAS can be applied in selecting breeding populations for blast resistance using zt56591 as DNA marker.
