From the evaluation of physical properties such as springiness, gumminess, adhesiveness, chewiness and hardness by the texture analyzer, vegetable soybean lines with green seed-coat were best as compared with those with black, brown, mixed, and yellow seed-coats. A panel test evaluated on the basis of taste, sweetness, chewiness, and total scores also indicated that soybean lines with green seed-coat were the best. The total scores of panel test was decreased in the order of green > yellow> black> brown seed-coat colored soybean. The mean value of sucrose content obtained by HPLC analysis was highest in black seed-coat colored soybean, and followed by green, yellow, and brown soybeans. The highest sucrose content (8.22%) was observed in 180362, a soybean line with green seed-coat. The full-season type soybeans showed much higher sucrose content than summer types which are mainly cultivated on farmer's fields for vegetable purposes. The final 13 lines selected from 300 colored soybeans showed nearly the same panel scores as Miwongreen. However, these lines had a great deal of variation in sucrose content, and much higher readings in texture analysis than Miwongreen, especially in chewiness and hardness which were the most important properties in vegetable soybeans.

To investigate the antioxidative effect of Korean soybeans, four kinds of soybeans(yellow, brown, black and small black bean) were selected and determined their antioxidative activities in vitro by POV method. Dark colored soybeans such as brown, black and small black soybean showed stronger antioxidative effect than pale yellow one. When compared the antioxidative effect of these soybeans in hull and dehulled condition, in dehulled soybeans, they showed the same antioxidative effect in each soybeans, but in soybean hull, dark colored soybeans showed stronger antioxidative effect than yellow soybean hull, which means the pigments of soybeans play important roles in their antioxidative activities. To separate the main components showing antioxidative effect in soybeans, these soybeans were extracted with hexane, methanol and water. The methanol extract showed the strongest antioxidative effect among them, which means the major antioxidative effect materials contained in methanol extract.

Seed coat color and seed weight are among the key agronomical traits that determine the nutritional quality of soybean seeds. This study aimed to evaluate the contents of total protein, total oil and five prominent fatty acids in seeds of 49 soybean varieties recently cultivated in Korea, and assess the influences of seed coat color and seed weight on each. Total protein and total oil contents were in the ranges of 36.28-44.19% and 13.45-19.20%, respectively. Likewise, individual fatty acid contents were in the ranges of 9.90-12.55, 2.45-4.00, 14.97-38.74, 43.22-60.26, and 5.37-12.33% for palmitic, stearic, oleic, linoleic, and linolenic acids, respectively. Our results found significant variations of protein, oil and fatty acid contents between the soybean varieties. Moreover, both seed coat color and seed weight significantly affected total oil and fatty acid contents. Total protein content, however, was not significantly affected by any factor. Among colored soybeans, pale-yellow soybeans were characterized by a high level of oleic acid (30.70%) and low levels of stearic (2.72%), linoleic (49.30%) and linolenic (6.44%) acids, each being significantly different from the rest of colored soybeans (p < 0.05). On the other hand, small soybeans were characterized by high levels of all individual fatty acids except oleic acid. The level of oleic acid was significantly high in large seeds. Cluster analysis grouped the soybeans into two classes with notable content differences. Principal component analysis also revealed fatty acids as the prime factors for the variability observed among the soybean varieties. As expected, total oil and total protein contents showed a negative association with each other (r = -0.714, p < 0.0001). Besides, oleic acid and linoleic acid showed a tradeoff relationship (r = -0.936, p < 0.0001) which was reflected with respect to both seed coat color and seed weight. In general, the results of this study shade light on the significance of seed coat color and seed weight to distinguish soybeans in terms of protein, oil and fatty acid contents. Moreover, the soybean varieties with distinct characteristics and nutritional contents identified in this study could be important genetic resources for consumption and cultivar development.

This study was conducted to compare the agronomic traits of well-known colored native soybean germplasms. Recently, we are increasingly interested in colored as various functional ingredient of soybeans have revealed. We used a total of 396 soybean genetic resources, consisting of ten "Seonbijabikong", 110 "Jyinunikong", 276 "Seoritaekong". We sowed on 10th June 2018 at the field of Nongsaensmyeongro in Jeonju city. The average number of days to flowering, days to maturing and days to growth of colored soybean were 53, 84 and 136 days, respectively. Days to flowering of "Seonbijabikong" were ranged from 41 to 50 days with an average 48 days, those of "Jyinunikong" were ranged from 39 to 72 days with an average 52 days. Days to flowering of "Seoritaekong" were ranged from 35 to 63 days with an average 54 days, which were earlier in "Seonbijabikong", and similar with "Seoritaekong" and "Jyinunikong". Days to growth of "Seonbijabikong" were ranged from 125 to 137 days with an average 132 days, those of "Jyinunikong" were ranged from 91 to 144 days with an average 130 days and those of "Seoritaekong" were ranged from 99 to 150 days with an average 139 days. they were shortest in "Jyinunikong" and longest in "Seoritaekong". The distribution of maturity period was from 6th September to 5th November. The maturity period was as early as September and yields were more than 100g per plant, which were all three accessions(IT161905, IT162602, IT269617), "Seoritaekong". They would be useful as breeding materials of colored soybean with early maturity. The 100-seed weight is important characteristics that distinguish the usage of soybeans. "Seoritaekong" and "Seonbijabikong" have large seed characteristics for cooking with rice, "Jyinunikong" has small seed it for medicine. The average 100 seed weight was 35.0g of "Seonbijabikong", 30.8g of "Seoritaekong" and 13.4g of "Jyinunikong", respectively. As for seed coat lust, the ratio of dull was as high as 100% of "Seonbijabikong" and 91% of "Seoritaekong", that of shiny was as high as 77% of "Jyinunikong". Cotyledon color of "Seonbijabikong" were all yellow, that of "Seoritaekong" were 94% of green. The other name of "Seoritaekong" is "Sokcheong", which means that cotyledon color is green. Therefore if cotyledon color of Seoritaekong is not green, it might be misidentified. In the future, we will increase the utilization through evaluation of functional component such as isoflavones and anthocyanins of colored soybean landraces.

Soybeans have various applications, and are a major source of proteins, carbohydrates, and fats. As climate warming has accelerated in recent years, this study was conducted to analyze the effect of different sowing periods on component changes in protein, amino acid, and antioxidant contents of various soybean varieties. The isoflavone content of soybeans that were sown early did not differ with the sowing period. Based on the results, only the total isoflavone content was confirmed in functional soybean cultivars such as Cheongja-5, which had blue-colored seeds; Pungsan and Sowon, which used soybean sprouts; and Jinyang, which lacked a fishy smell. There was no significant difference in the changes in protein and amino acid content in soybean cultivars with respect to the sowing time. The protein and amino acid contents in early-sown soybeans tended to be lower than that in timely sown soybeans. In most varieties, the content of proline was the highest in early-sown soybeans, confirming the presence of stress due to early sowing.

Soybean varieties derived from Korea are classified into four groups on the basis of their food types such as soybeans for vegetable, sprout, sauce and paste and soybeans with colored seed coat. This study was carried out to know the differences in storage protein concentrations among these four groups. There were differences in storage protein concentrations among four groups. In 7S protein, the $\alpha$'-and $\alpha$-subunit concentrations did not vary among four groups, while a $\beta$-subunit concentration greatly varied. 7S protein concentration was the highest(40.6%) in soybean for sauce and paste and the lowest(37.7%) in soybean for vegetable, while 11S protein concentration was the highest (62.3%) in soybean for vegetable and the lowest (59.4%) in soybean for sauce and paste. In view of the fact that 11S protein has much higher sulfur containing amino acids than 7S protein, it was shown the soybeans for vegetable may have higher nutrition value than other groups.

This study was carried out to know the variation of soybean seed proteins, 11S and 7S globulins, and their amino acid compositions among different colored soybean varieties, 'Danbaegkong' (yellow), 'Pureunkong' (green) 'Jinyulkong' (brown), and 'Geoumjeongkong l' (black). Soybean seed proteins showed a wide range in molecular size, but the electrophoresis patterns of total seed protein subunits showed a similarity among different colored soybean varieties. Amino acid compositions of total seed proteins were similar for all soybean varieties tested. However, soybean varieties showed low composition rates in sulfur containing amino acids. The composition rates of cysteine and methionine in the 11S globulins were higher than those of total seed proteins and 7S globulins. Glutamic acid and glycine were higher in the 11S and 7S globulins than those of total seed proteins. However, the levels of methionine and phenylalanine are high in the 11S globulins, but those of valine and lysin are slightly lower than the 7S globulins. By using HPLC, we tried to analyse the soybean seed proteins. The 11S globulin was composed of 10 major peaks whereas the 7S globulin was composed of 4 major peaks. The composition rates of 11S related proteins have a tendency to increasing during the maturing whereas those of 7S related proteins have a tendency to decreasing. Composition rates of each peaks among different colored soybean varieties suggested that soybean seed proteins are varied, although they showed similarity in the electrophoresis patterns, and understanding of this characteristics is important for the utilization of soybeans.

The effects of five colored soybean (blue, red, yellow, white, and black) varieties on the quality characteristics of soybean paste (Doenjang) were investigated for proximate composition, salt content, pH, color, organic acid content, amino acid content, and mineral content after 80 days of aging. Soybean paste (Doenjang) samples were divided into TDS (traditional Doenjang prepared with soybean) and TDM (traditional Doenjang prepared with mixed soybeans, kidney bean, black soybean, kind of small bean, sword bean, green bean, red bean, at a radio of 1:1:1:1:1(w/w)). Moisture content was 49.66% for TDM and 49.52% for TDM. Protein and salt contents of the TDS sample were higher than those of TDM. The "L" values of the TDB sample increased the aging period was decreased. In contrast, the "L" and "$\alpha$" values of TDM did not show any significant differences. The main organic acids detected were malic acid > lactic acid > tartaric acid in the TDS and TDM samples. Glutamic acid contents were 2.83 g/100 g for the TDS sample and 2.15 g/100 g for the TDM. The levels of K, Mg, and Ca of the TDS sample were higher than those of TDM. No significant difference occurred between TDS and TDM regarding their quality characteristics after 80 days of aging. Further studies needed include sensory evaluation and functionality of soybean paste made from mixed soybean materials.

Thirty eight varieties with high uniformity and clearance in grain quality among 70 colored soybeans collected from nation-wide provinces were investigated for their seed morphological and agronomic traits. As for seed morphological traits, grain volumetric size, grain weight, grain length, grain thickness, . hilum length and width were studied on the tendency of statistical dispersion and variations. As a result, four groups could be classified on the basis of 100 grains weight, so as small, medium, large, and super large groups, Also, as for agronomic traits, among others, the tendency of setting in flowering date, maturing date, yield components, and stem weight, stem length were studied on the basis of statistical inter-relationships between above mentioned characteristics. From the above, bigger variations were detected in weighing characters of soybean plants than in duration characters. And the flowering and maturing days showed significant relationships to the stem length, stem weight, also stem length and stem weight to the grain yield.

Collected 38 colored soybeans, which was cultivated under the conventional field conditions, were investigated about their organeloptic parameters and correlations among factors such as organeloptic score, texturometer parameters and chemical components of seeds. Most of the organeloptic parameters were affect much more by the characteristics of each cultivars than by grain weight, and then showed significant differences with the effect of interactinon between grain weight and cultivar, too. Also among contribution degrees of texturometer scores to overall acceptance, cohesiveness was higher in small, medium and super grains, however in large grains, hardness. And among sensory attributes, suitable toughness was contribute most positively to acceptance.
