Knowledge of genetic diversity and of the genetic relationships among elite breeding materials has had a significant impact on the improvement of crops. In maize, this information is particularly useful in i) planning crosses for hybrid and line development, ii) in assigning lines to heterotic groups and iii) in plant variety protection. We have used the SSR technique to study the genetic diversity and genetic relationships among 76 Korean waxy corn accessions, representing a diverse collection from throughout Korea. Assessment of genetic diversity among members of this group was conducted using 30 microsatellite markers. Among these 30 microsatellite markers, we identified a total of 127 alleles (with an average of 4.2 and a range of between 2 and 9 alleles per locus). Gene diversity at these 30 microsatellite loci varied from 0.125 to 0.795 with an average of 0.507. The cluster tree generated with the described microsatellite markers recognized two major groups with 36.5% genetic similarity. Group I includes 63 inbred lines, with similarity coefficients of between 0.365 and 0.99. Group II includes 13 inbred lines, with similarity coefficients of between 0.45 and 0.85. The present study indicates that the 30 microsatellite loci chosen for this analysis are effective molecular markers for the assessment of genetic diversity and genetic relationships between Korean waxy corn accessions. Specifically, this study's assessment of genetic diversity and relationships between a set of 76 Korean waxy corn inbred lines will be helpful for such activities as planning crosses for hybrid and line development and association mapping analyses of maize breeding programs in Korea.

The technique of plant transformation has started to show off its great power in the area of plant breeding by commercially successful introduction of transgenic varieties such as herbicide tolerant soybean and insect resistant corn in USA with an unimaginable speed. However, in contrast with the great success in the commercialization of herbicide tolerance and insect resistance, the transformation works on disease resistance has not yet reached the stage of full commercialization. This review surveys the current status of molecular breeding for plant disease resistance and their limits and problems. Some novel ideas and approaches in molecular breeding for disease resistance are introduced.

본 연구에서는 농업부산물인 옥수수 속대의 생리활성 화합물 공급원으로의 잠재적 활용 가능성을 탐색하기 위해 이삭의 성숙 단계에 따른 phytosterol 함량 변화를 측정하였다. 1. 옥수수 이삭의 crude fat 함량 변이는 속대가 3 DAS에서 54 DAS까지 2.51±0.06-0.33±0.04%, 종실은 9 DAS에서 54 DAS까지 1.84±0.04-4.91±0.28%로 나타났으며 종실은 성숙할수록 crude fat 함량이 증가하였고 속대는 반대의 경향을 나타내었다. 2. 옥수수 이삭의 등숙 기간 동안 속대와 종실에서 campesterol, stigmasterol, β-sitosterol은 주요 phytosterol로 검출되었으며, total phytosterol 함량은 속대가 3 DAS에서 54 DAS까지 134.84±4.58-48.86±0.89 mg/100g DW, 종실은 9 DAS에서 54 DAS까지 83.15±2.74-42.12±0.08 mg/100g DW로 생리적 성숙 초기 단계에 가장 높은 함량을 보인 뒤 점차적으로 감소하였다. 3. Hierarchical clustering heatmap analysis와 principal component analysis에서 옥수수 속대와 종실은 생리적 성숙 단계 및 조직 부위에 따라 구분이 되었다. 옥수수 속대를 새로운 phytosterol 공급원으로써 활용하기 위해 함량이 가장 풍부한 시기는 R1-R2 stage이며, 이삭 성숙 전체 단계에서 속대에는 종실보다 많은 phytosterol이 존재하므로 농업부산물인 속대를 새로운 phytosterol 공급원으로 활용할 수 있을 것이다.

The feeding value of high-oil corn fed to Taiwan Country (TC) chicken was examined by measuring apparent metabolizable energy (AME), growth performance, sexual maturity, carcass characteristics, and plasma pigmentation. In a completely randomized design, 870 sex-intermingled one-wk-old chicks were assigned to one of 30 floor pens, 29 birds per pen, and each pen randomly assigned to one of five dietary treatments. The experiment was ended when birds were 16 wk of age. The five dietary treatments varied in main fat sources, which were corn oil (CO), high-oil corn (HOC), lard (LRD), whole soybean (WSB) and yellow corn (YC), respectively. All the diets were formulated isonitrogenously, isocalorically, and of equal lysine and methionine contents except YC, in which equal amounts of YC replaced HOC. The results indicated that feed conversion in HOC was 8% higher (p<0.05) than YC whereas the calculated AME of HOC was only 3.5% to 4.0% higher than that of YC. No significant differences were observed in body weight, body weight gain, feed consumption, feed conversion ratio and ME efficiency for body weight gain among CO, HOC, LRD, and WSB. No significant differences existed in both skin and muscle pigmentation of breast among the five dietary treatments. No significance differences existed in plasma carotenoid content measured at various ages among the five dietary treatments except that birds fed with HOC had less (p<0.05) plasma carotenoids at 16 wk-old. The results indicate that if the price of high-oil corn is no more than 1.05 times that of yellow corn, the dietary cost per kg of body weight gain for TC chickens fed diets containing high-oil corn will be less, although their body weight may be lighter compared to chickens fed diets formulated with other fat sources.

A new waxy corn hybrid 'Daedukchal 1' was developed from single cross between CNU 504 and CNU 2396 at Chungnam National University in 2007. Inbred CNU 504 used as a seed parent and inbred CNU 2396 as a pollen parent were collected throughout domestic regions. Tasseling date of this hybrid was seven days later than that of check hybrid, 'Chalok 1'. 'Daedukchal 1' was 19.7 cm in ear length and 4.5 cm in ear diameter. On yield trial, ear length of this hybrid was increased 29.7% compared with a check hybrid, 'Chalok 1'. 'Daedukchal 1' had white kernels and good eating quality due to high sugar content and thinner pericarp. The ratio of kernel set length/ear length was similar to 'Chalok 1'. It is moderately resistant to southern leaf blight and northern leaf blight but susceptible to corn borer. The yields of 'Daedukchal 1' in fresh ear weight and in number of fresh ear were 16% and 8%, respectively, higher than those of a check hybrid in regional yield trials for two years. Seed production for this hybrid was better because of the consistency of tasseling dates.

The status of corn genetic diversity in the uplands of Sarangani in Southern Philippines was investigated using 12 morphological traits subjected to multivariate statistical analyses. Information about traditional farming, post-harvest and storage practices were also elicited especially in relation to losses of traditional varieties, a phenomenon known as genetic erosion. While a handful of farmers still plant traditional corn varieties in the remotest areas, a significant number had already shifted to genetically modified corn. Furthermore, principal component analysis (PCA) reduced the 12 morphological traits into 5 principal components and identified ear length and ear weight to be major contributors to variation. Cluster Analysis, on the other hand, formed two distinct groups but failed to give information about intra-cluster variability among the 32 collected corn accessions. These results warrant that more informative morphological traits and that molecular markers will be used to obtain a better picture of genetic diversity in Sarangani upland corn. Molecular analysis is also needed to establish genetic identities of these cultivars and to detect gene introgression from GM varieties into the gene pool of farmers' corn varieties. These analyses are imperative for the conservation of traditional corn varieties before they disappear in the Sarangani uplands because of shifting priorities of upland farmers.

본 연구는 뿌리썩이선충(Pratylenchus vulnus)이 옥수수뿌리조직을 침입했을 때, 조직의 해부학적.생화학적 변화를 밝힘으로써 식물과 선충의 상호관계를 이해하고, 이들 정보를 바탕으로 선충저항성 작물의 육종 및 선별에 활용하기 위함이다. 옥수수뿌리 표피를 뚫고 들어온 선충은 뿌리 피층에 자리를 잡고, 세포벽을 파괴하면서 다른 세포로 이동한다. 마침내 선충들은 피층의 내피와 세근의 기부에 밀집했다. P.vuinus의 암컷들은 세포내에 공간(cavity)을 형성하여 그 속에 알을 낳는 습성을 지니고 있다. 선충에 의한 주된 피해양상은 세포벽이 파괴되고 부서져서 공간을 형성하는 것으로 나타난다. 이러한 현상은 세근의 기부에서도 관찰된다. 선충의 피해로 야기된 옥수수 뿌리의 생화학적 변화는 선충접종구와 무접종구간 총단백질양과 esterase활력조사를 통해 비교.분석되었다. Denaturing gel 상에서 총단백질양의 비교는 유의한 차이를 나타내지 않았고, esterase 의 pattern 및 활력에서도 유의할 만한 차이는 발견되지 않았다.

This paper describes the variations in eight agronomic traits in three unadapted local landraces and an inbred cultivar of corn. To compare the agronomic traits in field evaluation with molecular marker evaluation the genotypes of the plant introduction were also checked by 4 microsatellite-SSR loci. The variations of the eight agronomic traits were higher in the local landrades than in the inbred line. which was substantiated by the high genetic variation in the landrades with microsatellite-SSR loci. The level of genetic variation was also different between landraces. Since the genetic evaluation can be easily quantified by the analysis of microsatellite-SSR loci. the threshold level of genetic homogeneity in the population for parental lines in breeding program can be determined and the effort of maintaining the landrace population would be alleviated. As an example in our analysis. the entry from Whachon should not need the same number of selfing generations as the other two landraces to get the level of inbred state. Since this line showed lowest intra-genetic variation within the population.

찰옥수수 가을재배시 등숙에 따른 종실의 지방산조성과 phytosterol의 함량변화를 검토하여 고품질 풋옥수수 생산을 위한 기초자료로 활용하고자 본 연구를 수행하여 얻어진 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 찰옥수수 출사후 일수가 경과할수록 종실의 조지방 함량은 지속적으로 증가 하였고, 흑진주찰은 일미찰보다 조지방 함량이 높았다. 2. 출사후 일수에 따른 지방산의 조성비는 뚜렷한 변화를 보였는데, palmitic acid 및 linoleic acid는 점차 감소되었으나 oleic acid는 증가되었고, 흑진주찰은 일미찰에 비해 불포화지방산의 조성비가 다소 높았다. 3. 출사후 일수가 경과할수록 총 phytosterol의 함량은 증가하여 출사후 33일에 함량의 최대치를 보였는데, 일미찰의 총 phytosterol 함량은 937.7 mg/100 g, 흑진주찰은 867.9 mg/100 g이었으나 품종간 통계적 함량의 차이는 없었다. 4. Phytosterol의 조성은 품종간 차이를 보였는데, 일미찰은 ${\beta}-sitosterol$ > stigmasterol > campesterol 순으로 함량이 높았으나, 흑진주찰은 ${\beta}-sitosterol$ > campesterol > stigmasterol 순으로 함량이 높았고, 성분별로 볼 때 campesterol 함량은 품종간 차이가 없었으나 stigmasterol 및 ${\beta}-sitosterol$은 흑진주찰이 일미찰에 비해 함량이 높았다. 5. Palmitic, linolieic, linolenic acid는 campesterol 및 ${\beta}-sitosterol$과 유의한 부(-)상관이 있었고, stearic acid는 stigmasterol과 정(+)상관이 인정되었다. Oleic acid는 campesterol 및 ${\beta}-sitosterol$과 정상관이 있었으나 stigmasterol과는 부상관이 인정되어 찰옥수수 등숙중 종실의 지방산 조성은 phytosterol의 함량의 변이에 영향을 미치는 것으로 판단되었다.
