This study was performed to effect of chain length distribution of amylopectin on gelatinization physical properties of cooked rice grains which were analyzed by alkali digestive value (ADV) in six rice cultivars. Those rice cultivars were Hwangumnuribyeo, Ilpumbyeo, Sangjubyeo, Taebongbyeo, Nampyungbyeo, and Dasanbyeo. The ADV values were evenly distributed from 7.0 (Hwangumnuribyeo) to 5.0 (Dasanbyeo). A similar chain length distribution of amylopectin was found in rice cultivars, indicating that DP12 had the highest distribution. Rice cultivars with high ADV value showed higher portion of short chain distribution upto DP15. The surface hardness of cooked rice increased consecutively to Dasanbyeo, Ilpumbyeo, and Hwangumnuribyeo. Among japonica type rice cultivars, the highest overall hardness was observed in Dasanbyeo followed by Hwangumnuribyeo and Ilpumbyeo. Correlation between hardness of rice graim and chain length distribution of amylopectin had the similar inclination to surface hardness of rice grains and overall hardness.

This study was carried out to get the basic informations regarding the varietal variations for the physicochemical properties such as protein content, amylose content, fatty acid content, grain quality values and color properties such as lightness value, chroma and hue for the 164 recombinant inbred lines(RILs) of Milyang 23 and Gihobyeo(M/G) at the experimental farm in the Sangji University. The principal component analysis and heritability study were conducted for this experiments. The rapidity of grain filling(RCF) for the 164 M/G RILs could be classified into four groups such as slow maturing group less than 41％, mid-slow maturing group 41∼60％, fast maturing group 61∼80％ and very fast maturing group more than 81％ based on the rapidity of grain filling rate. The slow maturing group of RGF showed a little bit higher protein content 9.1％, compared to the other RGF groups. However, the amylose content of all the RGF groups revealed the same content by the groups. The very fast maturing group of RGF showed longer grain length in brown rice compared to other RGF varietal groups, in case of grain width in brown rice showed shorter than any other groups. The alkali digestive value which was so much related to gelatinization temperature showed 3.40 degree at fast maturing group of RGF in M/G RILs. However, the very fast maturing group of RGF revealed 4.31 degree of alkali digestive value. The principal component analysis was performed by the chemical and color properties such as quality value, protein content, amylose content, alkali digestive value, fatty acid content, lightness value, chroma and hue for M/G RILs. The first principal component was able to explained upto 36％ to total informations. It was corresponded to quality value, protein content, amylose content, fatty acid content, lightness value and a-value(green -1 red). The characters regarding grain quality showed high heritable properties more than 75％ of heritability, but color characters appeared relatively lower heritability compared to grain quality.

An experiment was conducted to know the effects of crab shell, sericite ore, and charcoal powders on the growth, yield, and grain quality of rice. After application of 110-40-57 kg/ha of $N-P_2O_5-K_2O$, 3,000 kg/ha of crab shell and charcoal powders and 5,000 kg/ha of sericite ore powder were applied and incorporated into soil before transplanting of rice seedlings. The number of tillers and panicles, leaf area index at heading stage, N concentration of plants, and protein content and chalkiness of rice grains were increased with the application of crab shell powder, while the percentage of ripened stains and head rice and Toyo taste value were decreased. The yield of milled rice and other grain appearance and chemical and physical properties of rice grains were not affected by the application of crab shell powder. The sericite ore and charcoal powders increased protein content decreased Toyo taste value, but did not affect on the growth, yield and yield components and other grain qualities.

The mutants of sugary-2 (su-2), floury (flo), shrunken-1 (shr-1), and dull-1 (du-1) were crossed to waxy (wx) to produce $F_2$ seeds. Chi-square analysis on the segregating ratio of the $F_2$ seeds revealed that flo, su-2, and shr-1 were independently transmitted with wx, while wx was epistatic over du-1. The floury and sugary-2 were crossed to Hwasunchalbyeo, a waxy variety, and then the $F_4$ of floury-waxy and sugary-2-waxy seeds were developed, respectively. As the parents phenotypes of sugary-2 and floury, the grains of these two lines showed lower hardness and grain weight than normal grain of Hwacheongbyeo. For alkali digestive value (AVD), the sugary-2-waxy showed lower ADV than Hwacheongbyeo. For the gel consistency of grain flours, the floury was medium like Hwacheongbyeo, while those of the sugary-2, floury-waxy, and sugary-2-waxy were soft like Hwasunchalbyeo. The amylose contents in the grains of the sugary-2 and floury were decreased to ~15% whereas that of Hwacheongbyeo was 19.1%. All the lines showing waxy endosperm (Hwasunchalbyeo, floury-waxy, and sugary-2-waxy) showed less than 4% amylose contents. Interestingly, the free sugar content in the brown rice was increased to 9.27% in the sugary-2-waxy, showing transgressive segregation phenomenon where the free sugar contents in its parents, sugary-2 and Hwasunchalbyeo, were 5.98% and 3.98% respectively. Also, the floury-waxy showed transgressive segregation phenomenon, containing 6.15% of free sugar content in the grains.

Chitin and chitosan samples prepared from crab's shells under different conditions were compared for their physicochemical properties; and functionality in gastrointestinal tract by in vitro test. Their bulk density was in the range of $127{\sim}208\;mg/ml$, and their viscosity was $80{\sim}581\;cP$ in 0.1 chitin and $80{\sim}3,670\;cP$ in 0.5% chitosan solution, showing a wide variation. The degree of deacetylation in chitosan samples as determined by IR spectral analysis was relatively high, showing $81{\sim}93%$. At the same alkali concentration and reaction temperature, a longer reaction period gave an increased degree of deacetylation and lower viscosity. The water holding capacity of chitic substance became greater at higher soaking temperature; chitosan D at $37^{\circ}C$ showed the greatest value. Chitic substance with lower bulk density showed the higher water holding capacity. The retardation effect toward glucose absorption was higher in critic substances of lower density and higher water holding capacity; chitosan D showed the highest value of 38%. The retardation index toward bile acid absorption after 1 hour dialysis was $15{\sim}34%$ in chitic substances, 39% in pectin and 9% in cellulose. The retarding effect showed the highest value of 34% in chitosan D at 3% concentration.

This study was conducted to investigate optimal processing conditions, cooking characteristics, antioxidant activity and packaging method of rice coated with bamboo extract. In sensory evaluation of cooked rice, rice coated with bamboo ethanol extract was higher smell and taste than the other extraction methods, but texture showed no difference. As coating concentration increasing, L, a and b values of coated rice were increased. But L value of coated rice after cooking was decreased. On sensory evaluation of cooked rice, smell and taste were best in 10$\%$ coated with bamboo ethanol extract. Mineral contents of coated rice with bamboo extract were higher than those of uncoated. Water absorption and volume expansion of coated rice were lower than uncoated rice but showed higher toyo value. Hardness, gumminess and chewiness values of cooked rice with coated rice were higher than uncoated rice. Antioxidant activity of coated rice was higher than uncoated rice about twice times. Toyo values and alkali digestive values of coated rice were highest in paper package than the other packaging conditions. The total bacterial counts of rice coated with bamboo extract after cooking was lower than uncoated rice during storage at 25 and 6O$^{\circ}C$.

Weedy rice(red rice) collected in Korea were crossed with the Japonica, Javanica and Indica tester cultivars, and also crossed among those collected lines. Their seed fertility was counted and refered to their cross affinities. Some tester cultivars such as, Suweongjo, Malagkit Sinaguing and wx 817 which were regarded as belong to the Japonica, Javanica and Indica respectively, showed the typical tendencies of hybrid sterility when they were crossed each other. But, other testers such as Kwanak, Tapaiko, Belle Patna and Tarichaosun showed some differencies from those typical patterns, implying some varigations within a ecotype. The hybrids of weedy rice crossed to the Japonica testers showed higher fertility with a few semisterilities. While the crosses of weedy rice to the Javanicas or Indicas showed high sterility implying closer affinity relationships of weedy rice to the Japonicas. Even those weedy rice lines such as Samsanmyeon 8 and Sanchungaengmi B which showed semi-sterility when they were crossed to the Japonica testers showed high sterility when they were crossed to both Javanicas and Indicas. The hybrids among weedy rice lines showed high fertility raning 69% to 96%. Even those weedy rice lines which showed semi-sterility in the crosses with Japonica testers, showed high-fertility when they were crossed with those weedy rice lines. Though the amylose content, Alkali Digestive Value, Phenol reaction and grain shapes of theose weedy rice lines showed divers variations, the cross affinities of them showed closer phylogenie relationship to the Japonicas than to Japvanicas or Indicas. But the genetic influinces of Indicas to those weedy rices were not ignorable.

This study was conducted to provide the fundamental data based on the analysis of phsyco-chemical characteristics of domestic aroma rice and foreign aroma rice for breeding of aroma rice. The average amylose content of domestic aroma rice and widely cultured domestic traditional rice were 18.1% and 19.0% respectively. The Indica and the Japonica types were 25.6% and 25.0%. In the domestic rice of Tongil and Japonica type, the average protein content were 7.6% and 6.4% respectively. And the average protein content of foreign Indica and Japonica type were 7.6% and 7.0% respectively. And the average protein content of widely cultured domestic traditional rice was 5.6%. The Japonica type of rice shown a low protein content compared with Indica type of rice, and the foreign Indica types of rice exhibited a wide range of protein contents. The average alkali digestive value (ADV) of Tongil type of the domestic aroma rice was about 5.0 and the value of Japonica type was about 6.0. The average ADV of foreign Indica and Japonica type were 4.3 and 5.1 respectively. Also the average ADV of widely cultured domestic aroma rice was about 6.0. The foreign aroma rice were distributed a variable range of ADV value and lower than the both domestic aroma rice and widely cultivated domestic rice. In the whole aspect of the amylogram, the highest viscosity, the lowest viscosity and the last viscosity of the total resources, in domestic aroma rice were clearly lower with the next order, Japonica type of foreign aroma rice, Indica type of foreign aroma rice, Japonica type of domestic aroma rice, widely cultured domestic traditional rice, and Tongil type of domestic aroma rice. It shown the difference aspect of amylograms according to the eco-type of the domestic and foreign aroma and the general rice, and it was distinguishable in difference of the aspect of the amylogram of the endosperm of rice as non-glutinous rice, waxy rice, and middle-waxy rice.

This study was carried out to find out the physicochemical properties of rice grains of 8 varieties having various amylose content. Amylose contents of 8 varieties were ranged from 6.3 to 30.9% and could be classified into 4 groups, such as waxy, low-amylose, nonglutinous, and high-amylose. Protein contents were ranged from 5.8% to 7.5% varied depending on variety, but there was no significant difference in protein contents among groups. The hardness of milled rice grains in low-amylose and non-glutinous was stronger than waxy and low-amylose group. Whiteness of waxy group grains was the highest while non-glutinous group was the lowest. The alkaline digestive values were evenly distributed from 5.2 to 6.9 and highly correlated with amylose content. There was significant difference in pasting properties of rice flours among groups. High-amylose group showed the highest initial pasting temperature and total setback viscosity, and the lowest peaks for trough and breakdown viscosity. Low-amylose group showed the highest breakdown viscosity but the lowest setback viscosity as well as high peak viscosity. Although amylose content was significantly correlated with alkali spreading value in milled rice, initial pasting temperature, and total setback, but it was negatively correlated with toyo-meter value and setback viscosity.
