This experiment was carried out to elucidate some kinetic properties of the $\alpha$-galactosidase which produced and purified from Aspergillus niger ATCC 16513 and soybean(Glycine max. L). The Km value of Asp. niger and soybean $\alpha$-galactosidase were 37.0mM and 50.0mM for raffinose and55.5mM and 55.5mM for stachyose, respectively. The activity of Asp. niger and soybean $\alpha$-galactosidase were inhibited by galactose. Among the amino acids in active sites of both Asp. niger and soybean $\alpha$-galactosidase, histidine was identified by chemical modification of diethyl pyrocarbonate. Number of amino acids residues per mole of Asp. niger and soybean $\alpha$-galactosidase were 902 and 286, respectively.

In order to establish efficient plant regeneration from embryogenic suspension cultures of soybean, Glycine max L, we examined the effects of auxin type and concentration, cytokinin type and concentration, and amino acid type and concentration on the growth of embryogenic clumps from induced callus, and the effect of desiccation of mature somatic embryos obtained from these clumps on the frequency of somatic embryo germination. Embryogenic callus was induced from the edge of the cotyledons cultured on MS medium containing 6% sucrose, 40 mg/L 2,4-D, 0.2% gelrite and pH 5.7. The growth of embryogenic clumps was best in early staged, embryogenic callus that was placed in suspension culture of MS medium containing 5 mg/L 2,4-D and 0.5 mg/L asparagine. Single somatic embryos were isolated from the clumps and plated on the same medium for maturation. When the mature single somatic embryos were desiccated for 96 h, somatic embryo germination came up to approximately 90%. The plantlets germinated after embryos desiccation for 2 weeks were transfered to MS medium containing 3% sucrose,0.2% gelrite and pH 5.7.

Plastid transformation was attempted with soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] leaves and photoautotrophic and embryogenic cultures by particle bombardment using the transforming vector pZVII that carries the coding sequences for both subunits of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii Rubisco and a spectinomycin resistance gene (aadA). Spectinomycin resistant calli were selected from the bombarded leaves but the transgene was not present, indicating that the resistance was due to mutations. The Chlamydomonas rbcL and rbcS genes were shown to be site-specifically integrated into the plastid genome of the embryogenic cells with a very low transformation efficiency. None of the transformed embryogenic lines survived the plant regeneration process so no whole plants were recovered. This result does indicate that it should be possible to insert genes into the plastid genome of the important crop soybean if the overall methods are improved.

ATP contents of soybean(Glycine max Merrill) and mungbean (Phaseolus radiatus L.) seeds being germinated with Hoagland solution at $30^{\circ}C$ for 6 days were determined. In pregerminated seed, ATP contents in soybean and mumgbean were 11.4 and 63.0$\mu$g/g fresh seed respectively. During germination, the highest ATP content of soybean seeds was 550% of initial content on 2nd day and that of mungbean was 480% on 1st day after germination. ATP content in cotyledon of soybean and mungbean were increased up to 4th and 1st day after germination respectively, thereafter both were decreased, but those in the root, including the hypocotyl, of both seeds were continuously increased with germination progress.

The water in the crop cultivation shows difference according to the variety of crop, cultivations period and climatic condition. The growth and development, quantity and fruit enlargements are affected by soil water conditions. In previous study, leaf area and photosynthesis are decreased by lower soil moisture. Other research reported that excess moisture condition at vegetative and reproductive growth period in cultivation of soybean caused highest reduction in crop growth rate (CGR) and dry weights of plant parts. In particular, the damage was bigger during vegetative growth stage than reproductive growth period. Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merill) is useful and popular crop throughout the world. It is very popular crop in Korea, China, Japan and other Asian countries. Soybeans used in various way including soybean sprouts, paste, soymilk, oil and tofu. Two soybean cultivars grown in four different irrigation conditions were determined for physiological responses. In this study, we examined leaf area (LA), leaf dry weight (LDW), specific leaf area (SLA), root dry weight (RDW) and shoot height (SH) in different water conditions. 50mL/9day irrigation periods showed the lowest contents in LA, LDW, RDW, SH. Water deficit caused increase of leaf Water saturation deficits (WSD), Cheongjakong 3 and Taekwangkong showed increase of leaf water saturation deficits (WSD) in drought conditions and leaf water potential and stomatal conductance were decreased. Photochemical efficiency was decreased in 50mL/1day irrigation condition while, there was decrease of growth and development in 50mL/9day with drought.

The potency of adventitious root initiation was investigated in relation with germination days and ike end of culture days healed with root induction medium on the initiation of adventitious roots from explants of soybean (Glycine max L.) cotyledon. Also, the changes in the pattern of protein profiles related with adventitious mot initiation have been examined by two-dimensional polyauyl-amide gel elecoophoresis during the germination and the initiation of adventitious roots. The potency of adventitious root initiation from germinated cotyledons was high after 4 days, and adventitious roots were initiated from after 4 days and very high after 6 days healed with mot induction medium There was a reproducible quantitative change in 34 specific protein spots during germination and adventitious root initiation. A necessary basic protein for adventitious root initiation with rotative molecular weight of 27 kD was induced during the germination. And three basic protein groups with relative molecular weight 22 kD, 23 kD and 33 kD, and two acidic protein groups with relative molecular weight 27kD and 29 kD were induced during the initiation of adventitious roots.

The immunochemical property of lectin in soybean and the presence of lectin in seeds of six soybean cultivars were investigated by immunochemical methods. All seeds of six soybean cultivars formed one precipitin line against the soybean lectin antibody and showed immunochemically homologous precipitin pattern among the cultivars in immunodouble diffusion test. Four antigenic components in soybean lectin were detected by the crossed imuno-electrophoresis of a soybean seed antigen against the soybean lectin antibody. Cultivar, Jangyeop-kong contained the highest amount of lectin and the next were Kwangkyo, Hwangkeumkong, Baegunkong, and Jangbaegkong or Paldal-kong in order of lectin content. The lectin purified from the seeds of six soybean cultivars agglutinated rabbit erythrocytes, but did not agglutinate the fungal spores which were Fusarium sp., Alternaria sp., Cuvalaria sp., and Colletotrichum sp. isolated from the infected seeds or leaves of soybean.

Foxglove aphid, Aulacorthum solani (Kaltenbach), is a Hemipteran insect that infected a wide variety of plants worldwide and caused serious yield losses in crops. The objective of this study was to identify the putative genes to foxglove aphid resistance in wild soybean, PI 366121 (Glycine soja Sieb. and Zucc.). One hundred and forty-one F4:8 recombinant inbred lines developed from a cross between susceptible variety, Williams 82 and foxglove aphid resistance wild soybean, PI 366121 were used. The two type of resistance response, antibiosis and antixenosis resistance were evaluated through choice and no-choice test, graded by the degree of total plant damage and primary infestation leaf damage; a genome-wide molecular linkage map was constructed with 29,898 single-nucleotide polymorphism markers utilizing a Axiom(R) 180K soyaSNP array. Using inclusive composite interval mapping analysis for foxglove aphid resistance, one major candidate QTL on chromosome 7 was identified. The major QTL on chromosome 7 showed both antixenosis and antibiosis resistance responses. The newly identified major QTL was consistent with previously reported QTL, Raso2, which showed around 5 times narrow down interval range with 8 candidate genes. Furthermore, total 1,115 soybean varieties including Glycine soja and Glycine max were exposed to germplasm screening, and 31 varieties, which showed significant antibiosis type foxglove aphid resistance were identified. This result could be useful in breeding for new foxglove aphid resistant soybean cultivars and developing novel insecticides.

The soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] is one of the most important crop resources worldwide as food and forage. It is also important and valuable that to hold crop resources to have high genetic diversities. Recently, a core collection has been constructed in many plants to preserve the genetic resources of various plants. A core collection is small population to represent the genetic diversity of the total collection, and is of strategic importance as they allow the use of a small part of a germplasm collection that is representative of the total collection. Here, we developed the core collection consisting of 816 accessions by using approximately 180,000 (180K) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) developed in previous study. In addition, we performed genetic diversity and population structure analysis to construct the core collection from entire 4,392 collections. there were excluded sample call rates less than 93% and duplicated samples more than 99.9% according to genotype analysis using 180K SNPs from entire collections. Furthermore, we were also excluded natural hybrid resources which Glycine max and Glycine soja are mixed in half through population structure analysis. As a result, we are constructed the core collection of genetic diversity that reflects 99% of the entire collections, including 430 cultivated soybeans (Glycine max) and 386 wild soybeans (Glycine soja). The core collection developed in this study should be to provide useful materials for both soybean breeding programs and genome-wide association studies.

Soybean (Glycine max L.), a major part of Asian diet, is consumed primarily for its nutritional value. However, poor storage stability often leads to loss of nutritional value or deterioration in quality. This study focused on the storage stability of soy flour obtained from raw and roasted "Saedanbaek" soybeans packed in polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PPE) film bags that were stored at $4^{\circ}C$, $20^{\circ}C$ and $45^{\circ}C$ for 48 weeks. The early acid values (diene and p-anisidine) of raw soybean flour (RSF) at high temperature (HT) were higher than those at refrigerated temperature (RFT) and room temperature (RT) during 48 and 12 to 36 weeks, respectively. In the case of roasted soybean flour (ROSF), which was stored at RFT and RT, the acid and conjugated diene values gradually increased after 24 weeks. In RSF, the peroxide value increased since the beginning of the $24^{th}$ week. The p-anisidine value also increased during 12 to 36 weeks but was much lower than the values obtained from HT storage. As the peroxide values decreased, the p-anisidine values increased, indicating an inverse relationship. Lipoxygenase activity of ROSF at all storage conditions was lower than RSF. Several differences were observed between the packing materials used. This study could, therefore, provide useful information for the industrial use of soybean flour (SF).
