This study aims to establish the efficient soybean transformation system and develop soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merill] transformants using cotyledonary node explants. The cotyledonary node of soybean were co-cultivated with Agrobacterium tumefaciens strains (KYRT1, EHA105). These strains contain the binary vector pCAMBIA3301 which carries a herbicide-resistant far gene. Korean cultivars (Danbaekkong, Eunhakong) and foreign cultivars (Jack, Peking) were the most efficient in regenerating cotyledonary node. Therefore, they were chosen for the transformation. Results showed that the T-DNA transfer reached up to 60% and transformation efficiency reached up to 3% in the cotyledonary node explants from Jack cultivar, co-cultivated with EHA105 strain. Histochemical GUS evaluation showed that 12 individual lines, transformed with the 현 gene, have positive response. The transformed soybeans have been confirmed in the $T_0$ generation through phenotypic assay using herbicide $Basta^{(R)}$ and Southern blot analysis.

Soybean cyst nematode(SCN) (Heterodera glycines Ichinohe) causes the greatest yield loss to soybean compared to any other pest worldwide. Yield loss due to SCN is estimated 7.6 million megagrams in the USA and nearly 9 million worldwide. SCN causes yield reductions by feeding on plant nutrients, retarding root growth, and inhibiting Bradyrhizpbium japonicum(Kirchner) Buchanan nodulation. The primary methods for controlling SCN include planting resistant cultivars and rotation with nonhost crops. Genetically diverse field populations of SCN combined with the limited germplasm base of commercial soybean for resistance could potentially leads to population shifts over time, and this makes controlling H. glycines more difficult. This paper reviewed the importance of soybean, soybean cyst nematode, researches on resistance to SCN, and prospects. Tremendous effort must still be endeavored for elucidating resistance mechanisms and managing H. glycines in the soybean field.

The changes of the time-dependent accumulation of isoflavone aglycones(daidzein, genistein) and their glucosides(daidzin, genistin) by various stress-inducing treatment on cotyledon of soybeans(Dankyungkong and Paldalkong) were investigated. Levels of isoflavone aglycones and their glucosides in soybeans treated with UDP-glucose, $MgSO_4$ and $HgCl_2$ and infected with phytopathogen appeared to be higher than those of treatment with distilled water. When compared with data for control, the levels of isoflavone glucosides in citrate-treated soybeans were increased but those of their aglycones did not appear appreciable differences. In Paldalkong treated with UDP-glucose, $MgSO_4$ and $HgCl_2$ the levels of isoflavone aglycones and their glucosides were higher than in Dankyungkong. In particular, the accumulation of daidzein in Paldalkong was significantly higher than in Dankyungkong. By infection with Botrytis cinerea, the maximum amount of accumulation of daidzein in two cultivar did not to be a large different, but accumulation time appeared more rapidly in Paldalkong than Dankyungkong. The accumulation amount of daidzein and genistein in Dankyungkong treated with elicitors appeared to be similar at initial stage, but the level of daidzein after 48hours appeared to be higher than that of genistein. In Paldalkong, the level of daidzein was higher than that of genistein at all stage. The level of daidzein in soybeans infected with phytopathogen appeared to be higher than that of genestein.

This study was conducted to see the feasibility of breeding for sprout soybean cultivar with minimum benny flavor using lipoxygenase-less lines. Lipoxygenase-less cultivar Jinpumkong2 was crossed by lipoxygenase containing Gwangankong, Sebaeknamulkong, and Pureunkong as paternal parent and 24 lipoxygenase-less lines derived from those 3 combinations were selected and those lines were evaluated with their parental cultivars. Germination rate showed no difference between lipoxygenase-less lines and their parental cultivars, however, rates of normal sprout of those and Jinpumkong2 were 63 and $56\%$, and were lower than that of paternal parents. Hypocotyl length of those was same as Jinpumkong2, however, shorter than paternal parents. Texture characteristics including hardness, cutting force and mastication of 96 hour-cultured sprout of lipoxygenase-less lines showed higher value than that of their parental cultivars. Lipoxtgenase isozyme was not detected in the sprout cotyledon of lipoxygenase-less lines, however it was observed in the sprout hypocotyl of all the used genotypes. Though lipoxygenase activity in the seed of lipoxygenase-less lines was lower than that of Jinpumkong2(0.477, ${Delta}A$ 234 nm min-1 mg meal-1),2 lines revealed more than 0.5 value. Lipoxygenase-activity of 2 day-cultured sprout(both cotyledon and hypocotyl) was the highest, decreased in 3 days after culture and re-increased thereafter. Several lipoxygenase-less lines with lower lipoxygenase activity of sprout than Jinpumkong2 were selected and this suggested the possibility of breeding lines for soy-sprout with low benny flavor.

This experiment was conducted to investigate the variation of crude protein, crude oil, fatty acid, and sugar contents in five Korean domestic black soybean cultivars grown at different latitudinal locations, a high latitude, Suwon ($37^{\circ}$16'N) and a low latitude, Milyang ($35^{\circ}$30'N). The crude protein content was highest in Geomjeongkong # 3 (43.9%) and crude oil content was highest in Geomjeongkong # 4 (21.8%) among the five cultivars. Crude protein and oil contents in black soybean cultivars except Geomjeongkong # 4 were not significantly different between high latitude and low latitude. In most black soybean cultivars grown at high latitude, oleic acid content was higher, while linoleic acid, and linolenic acid contents were lower compared to low latitude. Sucrose content in Geomjeongkong # 3, raffinose contents in Geomjeongkong # 3, # 4, Ilpumgeomjeongkong, and Cheongjakong, and stachyose content in Geomjeongkong # 1 grown at low latitude was higher compared to high latitude. The variations of crude protein, crude oil and fatty acid contents seemed to be affected by genotype than growing locations according to different latitude as they did not show the significant interaction between cultivars and locations. In contrast, the variations of glucose, sucrose, and stachyose contents maybe affected by environmental condition as different latitude than the genotype because they showed the significant interaction between cultivars and locations.

This study was carried out to select the most suitable soybean cultivars for the quality kanjang preparation. Six cultivars of soybean, Taekwangkong, Kumjungkong #1, Sinpaldalkong #2, Hwangkeumkong, Danbaegkong and Danyeobkong, were used as the raw materials for kanjang preparations. Grain type meju was prepared by the inoculation of Bacillus subtilis var. globigii seed culture on the cooked soybean of respective cultivar and cultivation at $30^{\circ}C$ for 10 days. Two month matured respective kanjang mash, which was prepared by mixing meju and 20% salt brine in the ratio of 1 : 3, was separated and the liquid portions were used as kanjang samples for this work. The highest crude protein content of 47.5% was obtained from Danbaegkong cultivar among six soybean cultivars tested. High sugar soybean cultivars were found to be Kumjungkong l and Danbaegkong and the content 15.87% and 13.33% respectively. The highest total nitrogen(TN) content of 1.18% was shown from Danbaegkong kanjang. Although the major free organic acid in kanjang was found to be succinic acid, no significant differences in free organic acid and sugars content were observed among cultivars. The highest free total amino acids(TA) and glutamic acid(GA) content in kanjang was observed to be 3365 mg% and 734.44 mg% respectively from Danbaegkong kanjang. Danbaegkong cultivar soybean which was shown to contain the highest crude protein was found to be the most suitable one for the preparation of quality kanjang with high TN, GA content and GA/TA ratio.

Bacterial pustule (BP) is a leaf disease of soybean that is most common in Korea. Inoculation of 8ra, pathogen strain, to resistant and susceptible cultivars for finding the BP resistance gene (rxp) was much tried but the sequence of the exact gene is not found. This research performed in order to confirm the rxp gene near molecular marker by using the resistant and susceptible cultivars. Soybean BP resistance gene which related to region of near molecular marker could select the resistant cultivar. For the near molecular marker of rxp, reference genomics data available at sequenced Phytozome was used for designing molecular markers. The rxp was mapped between Satt372 and Satt486 on chromosome 17. According to previous study, rxp released in find mapping 7.2 Mbp to 7.3 Mbp on chromosome 17. In this study, we developed 3 random markers near from 6.6 Mbp to 7.3 Mbp on chromosome 17 identified to increase the genetic resolution of the rxp gene region using resistant and susceptible cultivars. Particularly, Rxp17-700 marker was mostly coincided resistance and susceptible genotype to rxp. This result suggests that Rxp17-700 marker will be more tightly linked to rxp gene.

Soybean proteins of 19 varieties recommended In Korea were characterized by solubility classes, SDS-PAGE and amino acid composition. In distribution of the protein fractions by solubility difference, glycinin content was $48.19{\sim}58.86%$ of total protein. Prolamin, constituting about 1.16% of total protein, was the fraction showing the significant differences between varieties. The electrophoretic patterns of whole soybean proteins exhibited no varietal differences except in 6 varieties of Padal, Jangbaek, Jangyeob, Danyeob, Nameheon and S-138 in molecular weight range of $21.5{\sim}31.0%$ kd. Cystein, methionine, tyrosine and threonine were the minor components of soybean protein and percentage of tyrosine to the total proteins showed significant varietal differences.
