본 시험은 기상여건상 상습적인 과습장해에 대비하여 내습성 콩 품종의 조기육성 및 습해 경감기술 개발을 위한 기초자료를 제공하고자 수행하였던 바, 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 뿌리건물중은 풍산나물콩이 과습구가 대조구의 59~67%로 과습에 의한 감소정도가 가장 적었고, 장엽콩이 과습구가 대조구의 47~49%로 감소정도가 가장 컸다. 본엽4엽기(V5 stage) 과습처리후 21일간 뿌리건물중 일당증가량은 풍산나물콩이 과습구가 대조구의 47~56%로 회복력이 가장 컸고, 장엽콩이 과습구가 대조구의 26~27%로 회복력이 가장 적었다. 2. 근류건물중은 풍산나물콩이 과습구가 대조구의 83~91%로 과습에 의한 감소가 가장 적었으나, 명주나물콩은 과습구가 대조구의 48~66%로 감소정도가 가장 컸다. 3. 지상부 건물중에 대한 지하부 건물중의 비율(R/S)은 기간이 경과할수록 감소하였는데, 장엽콩은 과습처리 직후부터 과습처리 종료 11일 후 까지 대조구가 과습구에 비해 R/S가 0.04~0.06 정도 더 높았으며, 풍산나물콩은 과습처리 종료 4일 후 까지는 대조구가 과습구에 비해 R/S가 0.04 정도 더 높았으나, 과습처리 종료 11일 후에는 대조구는 R/S가 0.37였으나 과습구는 R/S가 0.39으로서, 대조구에 비해 과습구의 R/S가 더 높았다. 이는 과습처리 종료 후 뿌리의 회복속도가 빠르고, 부정근(adventitious root)의 발생이 많았기 때문인 것으로 나타났다. 4. 과습처리 종료 11일 후 전체 뿌리 생체중에 대한 부정근의 생체중 비율은 명주나물콩이 14%로 가장 낮았고, 풍산나물콩이 38%로 가장 높아 생육후기 양 수분 흡수능력증대에 유리한 것으로 나타났다.

This experiment was conducted to clarify the functions of supernodulating characters on seed yield determination through the comparison of agricultural traits of supernodulating soybean mutants, Kanto100, SS2-2, and their parent cultivars, Enrei and Shinpaldalkong2. The supernodulating soybean mutants Kanto100, SS2-2 were previously characterized by their superior capabilities of nitrogen (N) fixation and photosynthesis, and thereby it is expected to offer high yields. However, it is likely to be susceptible to waterlogging during the vegetative growth stage, which frequently occurs in major soybean producing areas. The presentstudy was intended to show the effects of waterlogging on nodulation, N fixation, photosynthesis and growth of Kanto100 and SS2-2.The supernodulating cultivar Kanto100 and its normally-nodulating parental cultivar Enrei, grown in pots,were subjected to waterlogging treatment that was imposed at the successive three vegetative growth stages for two years,2005 and 2006. The waterlogging treatment significantly reduced the number and weight of nodules of both cultivars, and the magnitude of the reduction was more pronounced in Kanto100 and SS2-2. The acetylene reduction activity (ARA) of nodules and apparent photosynthetic rate (AP) of leaves were generally depressed immediately after waterlogging treatment, but both functions exhibited remarkable recovery at the pod-filling stage irrespective of cultivar. No marked cultivar difference was found in the magnitudeof the reduction of ARA per plant and AP measured immediately after waterlogging and at the pod-filling stage irrespective of year, but growth impairment was more pronounced in Kanto100 and SS2-2 in one of the two years. These results indicate that Kanto100 and SS2-2 exhibits a marked decrease in dry matter production by waterlogging, but yield decrease is compensated to level similar to that of Enrei and Shinpaldalkong2 because of its enhanced nodule growth during the recovery stage. The supernodulating cultivar Kanto100 and SS2-2 is more susceptible to waterlogging under certain growing conditions than their normally-nodulating parent cultivar.

Brassica napus L. (Brassicaceae), is one of major oilseed crops commonly cultivated cereal-growing areas after the rice harvest in Asia countries, has recently focused much attention as its seed is the primary source for bio-diesels. In rapeseed growing regions of South Korea, typical double-cropping regions are constantly or periodically received with poorly drained soil condition or encountered dried soil condition during the reproductive stage. This study was conducted on rapeseed plants subjected to both waterlogging and drought conditions for 4 days to investigate responses in physiological characteristics, fatty acid compositions and yield performances at reproductive stage. The treatments were thus as follows: (1) control normally irrigated, (2) waterlogging treatment were flooded by placing their pots inside larger plastic pots filled with tap water with a 2-cm water layer over soil surface, (3) drought treatment was not irrigated. For recovery period, rapeseed plants subjected to waterlogging for 4 days were drained after waterlogging, and irrigated daily as control. Drought treatment after recovery period was irrigated daily as control. Rate of photosynthesis and stomatal conductance of waterlogging and drought treated plants significantly decreased within 4 days. For recovery period, stomatal conductance and photosynthetic rate of the waterlogged and drought treated plants occurred level similar to that of the controls by 2 days after recovery period. Fatty acid compositions of the both waterlogging and drought treated plants did not affect, but yield performances of the waterlogging treatment significantly decreased. These results suggest that both waterlogging and drought conditions for 4 days did not influence fatty acid compositions, but affected yield performance at final harvest.
