This study presents a case study designed to compare the selection efficiency between phenotypic selection (PS) and marker-assisted selection (MAS) in breeding of resistance lines to brown planthopper (BPH). The efficiency between PS and MAS were compared with four population such as the $F_2$, RILs ($F_6$), DH, and backcrosse ($BC_6F_5$) population, derived from a cross 'Samgang / Nagdong'. The resistance lines were selected using two markers, RM28493 and BpE18-3, related to BPH resistance were screened as resistance lines over 95% in PS. The costs required for BPH screening in the MAS system account for approximately 32% of the total costs of PS. The period needed to select the resistance plants was 30 days in PS and 7 days in MAS. Based on the results, we could establish the breeding system for selection of BPH resistance lines by MAS.

Twenty and 24 lines selected from Korean local cultivar, Kalmi and Punggak, respectively, were grown in the University experiment farm to select promising lines for recurrent parent in a backcross breeding program for incorporation of resistance to Phytophthora capsici and Xanthomonas campestris pv vesicatoria into the Korean local cultivars. All the selections of 'Kalmi' and 'Punggak' were relatively late in maturity and the range of the variation was wider in the selections of 'Kalmi' than in those of 'Punggak'. Many of the selections from 'Kalmi' were vigorous, high in sugar content, and tolerant to virus in the field. Many of the selections from 'Punggak' were bearing large fruits with thick pericarp and high milling percentage. Line 6, 9, 14, 18 of 'Kalmi' and line 14, 16, 18 of 'Punggak' were selected as promising lines for recurrent parent in the backcross program.

We evaluated fruity characteristics to select the desirable mulberry varieties for the production of fruit from 2002 to 2003. Tested items were total yield, weight of single fruit, soluble solids and fruit size including length, width, and petiole length. We started yield of mulberry fruits from 27th of May, and continued for two weeks or three weeks according to mulberry varieties. 'Susungppong', 'Cheongnosang', and 'Jeolgokchosaeng(Chungbuk)' were showed high and similar quantity for two years. In weight of single fruit, 'Jeolgokchosaeng(Chungbuk)' and 'Ficus' were 4.6 g respectively. 14 mulberry varieties were showed more than 17 Brix % in soluble solids. From that results, eight suitable varieties such as 'Jeolgokchosaeng(Chungbuk)', 'Dangsang 7', 'Jangsosang', 'Susungppong', 'Suwonnosang', 'Palcheongsipyung', 'Kangsun', and 'Jukcheonchosaeng' were selected for the production of fruit.

A new whole crop silage barley cultivar, "Youngyang", was developed from the cross between "Bunong and Milyang55 at the Yeongnam Agricultural Research Institute (YARI) in 2002. An elite line, YB3882-3B-17-1-3-1, was selected in 1999 and designated as "Milyang111". It showed good agronomic performance in the regional adaptation yield trials (RYT) from 2000 to 2002 and was released by the name of "Youngyang" with higher yield and better animal feed quality than that of Olbori. The average heading and maturing dates of Youngyang were May 2 and June 6, which were late by 2 & 1 days than those of Olbori, respectively, in Suwon. Youngyang had longer culm length, 83cm but it had lesser spikes per $m^2$ 637 than that of Olbori, respectively, in RYT from 2000 to 2002. The rate of leaf sheath/whole length (culm+leaf) and the rate of the grains/whole crop weight was similar to Olbori. It showed resistance to BaYMV at the regions of Naju, Jinju, Milyang andt Iksan. however, the response of Youngyang to other environmental stresses (tolerance of cold and wet) was similar to Olbori. The dried whole crop yield potential of Youngyang in the RYT was about 11.67 MT/ha in paddy fields which was about 18% higher than that of Olbori. The grain yield potential was 6.32 MT/ha in paddy fields which was about 5% higher than that of Olbori. Youngyang had lower rate of shattering, higher content of protein and NDF, lower ADF and TDN, and better quality of silage than those of Olbori.

Maize is divided into two types based on the starch composition of the endosperm in the seed, normal maize(or non-waxy maize) and waxy maize. In this study, genetic diversity and population structure were investigated among 80 waxy maize and normal inbred lines(40 waxy maize inbred lines and 40 normal maize inbred lines) using 50 SSR markers. A total of 242 alleles were identified at all the loci with an average of 4.84 and a range between 2 and 9 alleles per locus. The gene diversity values varied from 0.420 to 0.854 with an average of 0.654. The PIC values varied from 0.332 to 0.838 with an average of 0.602. To evaluate the population structure, STRUCTURE 2.2 program was employed to confirm genetic structure. The 80 waxy and normal maize inbred lines were separated with based on the membership probability threshold 0.8, and divided into groups I, II and admixed group. The 13 waxy maize inbred lines were assigned to group I. The 45 maize inbred lines including 7 waxy maize inbred lines and 38 normal maize inbred lines were assigned to group II. The 22 maize inbred lines with 20 waxy maize inbred lines and 2 normal maize inbred lines were contained in the admixed group. The cluster tree generated using the described SSR markers recognized three major groups at 31.7% genetic similarity. Group I included 40 waxy maize inbred lines and 11 normal maize inbred lines, and Group II included 27 normal maize inbred lines. Group III consist of only 2 normal maize inbred lines. The present study has demonstrated the utility of SSR analysis for the study of genetic diversity and the population structure among waxy and normal maize inbred lines. The information obtained from the present studies would be very useful for designing efficient maize breeding programs in Maize Experiment Station, Kangwon Agricultural Research and Extension Services.

Recently, Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV)-P1 infection in pepper cultivation is very serious problem, which causes low marketability and yield. In this research, 56 domestic pepper cultivars including 20 PR (Phytophthora resistance) cultivars, 31 foreign pepper lines collected from USA and 112 genetic pepper resources form RDA Genebank were used for CMV-P1 resistance evaluation. Resistance evaluation was performed at 24 days and 51 days after artificial inoculation of peppers by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Among the 36 domestic cultivars 'Muhanjilju' were resistant to CMV-P1. All 20 PR cultivars and 29 foreign peppers except 'NuMex Twilight' and 'Chainese Giant' were susceptible. Among 112 pepper lines from RDA Genebank, nine pepper lines were resistant, and 17 pepper lines were moderately resistant, and 86 pepper lines were susceptible. Almost all domestic peppers on the market were highly susceptible to CMV-P1, whereas 17.2% of foreign pepper cultivars and genetic pepper lines from RDA Genebank were resistant or moderately resistant. Resistant pepper lines selected in this study can be used as genetic sources for breeding CMV-P1 resistant pepper.

A Korean local maize line, MET, which has multi-ears and tillers has been proved as a potential source for silage production. However, no fundamental genetic nature for the line has been investigated. Therefore, this study was done to find genetic information on the multi-earing and -tillering habits of MET line. MET line and a hybrid. (Mo 17 ${\times}$ B68), with monoculm and single ear per plant were used for production of F$_1$(F$\_$1-12/ and F$\_$1-21/), F$\_$2-12/, F$\_$2-21/, BC$\_$1-12/ and BC$\_$1-21/ generations. From the comparison of reciprocal crosses, it was found that the tillering and earing habits of the MET line are controlled by cytoplasmic factors. The tiller and ear numbers, and barren ears were all characters associated with the MET cytoplasm. The cytoplasmic effect of MET on tiller and ear numb en was not evident in F$_1$ generation, probably because of suppressing effect of heterosis on appearance of tillers or ears. Genetic parameters for the gene action for both tiller and ear number also indicated a lack of mono- or digenic-chromosomal gene effects. The heritability (broad) was very low for both characters. Therefore, it is strongly concluded that the tillering and earing characters of MET line are due to cytoplasmic reasons.

Brown planthopper(BPH) is one of the most destructive insect pests of rice. The use of genetically resistant cultivars has proven to be a more economical, efficient and environment friendly means to combat this pest. This study was carried out to investigate the relationship between BPH resistant gene, Bph18 and yield components of rice using DH(doubled haploid) lines derived from 'Saenuri'/SR30071-3-7-23-6-1-1-1. SR30071-3-7-23-6-1-1-1 line has Bph18 gene derived from wild species, Oryza australiensis. BPH resistant gene, Bph18 shortened heading days, enlarged culm length and panicle length and reduced ratio of ripened grains of rice. The results indicate that backcrossing breeding is necessary to develop elite cultivars carrying Bph18 gene.
