  • To analyze their isoflavones contents by HPLC analysis during two years on 60 collected old local traditional soybean varieties from various districts of Korea was conducted. There was a yearly variation in the seed isoflavon concentrations. The total contents on 5 isoflavones were in the range from 16.21mg/g to 25.21 mg/g and from 6.47 mg/g to 15.44 mg/g, in 1997 and 1998, respectively. Collected soybean from Gunsnsi-1(25.21 mg/g) in 1997 and from Gangjingun-3 (16.50 mg/g) in 1998 showed the highest amount of isoflavones as compared with other collected soybean varieties. The highest amount among 5 isoflavones was genistin as 48.45% and 49.73%, in 1997 and 1998, respectively, indicating the genotypic variation in seed isoflavon contents of local soybean cultivar. Our data suggest that it may be feasible for improving soybean variety with higher antioxiadtive activity and substances.

  • Seven varieties of soybeans (Paldal, Danyeob, Jangbaek, Baegun, Jangyeobkong and 2 cultivars of Local 1 and Local 2) were investigated to compare the germination properties and cooking rate. The growth rate of soybean sprout roots was slower for larger size of soybeans. A 100% of germination was obtained for Danyeobkong and Paldalkong. Local 1 and Local 2 were lowest, 47% and 31%, respectively in germination ratio. The hardness of cooked soybeans measured by the maximum cutting force of cotyledon showed that Local 2 was softer and Danyeobkong was harder than other varieties.

  • Association mapping is widely used in rice and other crops to identify genes underlying important agronomic traits. Most association mapping studies use diversity panels comprising accessions with various geographical origins to exploit their wide genetic variation. While locally adapted breeding lines are rarely used in association mapping owing to limited genetic diversity, genes/alleles identified from elite germplasm are practically valuable as they can be directly utilized in breeding programs. In this study, we analyzed genetic diversity of 179 rice varieties (161 japonica and 18 Tongil-type) released in Korea from 1970 to 2006 using 192 microsatellite markers evenly distributed across the genome. The 161 japonica rice varieties were genetically very close to each other with limited diversity as they were developed mainly through elite-by-elite crosses to meet the specific local demands for high quality japonica rice in Korea. Despite the narrow genetic background, abundant phenotypic variation was observed in heading time, culm length, and amylose and protein content in the 161 japonica rice varieties. Using these varieties in association mapping, we identified six, seven, ten, and four loci significantly associated with heading time, culm length, and amylose and protein content, respectively. The sums of allelic effects of these loci showed highly significant positive correlation with the observed phenotypic values for each trait, indicating that the allelic variation at these loci can be useful when designing cross combinations and predicting progeny performance in local breeding programs.

  • In Nongsajiksul, rice varieties were not appeared but varieties groups were introduced and divided according to growth periods, or 'Sun, Gang, Na'or introduced names of some of local varieties. However, the weather conditions for rice culture in Korea were characterized by 'early drought and late flooding', and winds and rains in summer, so that rice safe harvest by avoiding these disasters was the most important. Thus, development of rice varieties after the 15th century has gradually been adapted for ‘early-seeding and early-harvesting’, and for disaster tolerance. With time, rice varieties, which were early maturing, had awned, had color on panicles, had tolerance for grain shattering, had tolerance for winds, and had good responses to fertilizers, were grown in large areas.rown in large areas.

  • This study was conducted to obtain basic information for the improvement of garlic cultivars. Local varieties of garlic were collected from 4 major production area in Korea and ecological characteristics were compared. The number of cloves per bulb showed a great variation in the range from 4 to 15. However, more than 70% of examined garlics had 6~8 cloves per bulb. Clove weight also differred between local varieties, thus, the range of clove weight was distributed from 1.0g to 7.6g and this tendency was also similar within a same local variety. Although clove weight was relatively higher in bulbs containing 6~8 cloves, bulb weight was higher in bulbs containing more cloves.

  • Objective: A study was conducted to evaluate the varietal differences among faba bean straws and also to assess the potentials of faba bean straws supplemented with concentrate fed at the rate 70% straws and 30% concentrate mixture on feed intake, digestibility, body weight gain and carcass characteristics of the animals. Methods: Forty yearling Arsi-Bale sheep with initial body weight of $19.85{\pm}0.29kg$ (mean${\pm}$standard deviation) were grouped in a randomized complete block design into eight blocks of five animals each based on their initial body weight. Straws included in the study were from Mosisa (T1M), Walki (T2W), Degaga (T3D), Shallo (T4S), and local (T5L) varieties of faba bean and concentrate (2:1 ratio of wheat bran to "noug" seed cake). The experiment consisted of seven days of digestibility and 90 days of feeding trials followed by evaluation of carcass parameters at the end. Results: Local variety had lower (p<0.05) in grain and straw yield compared to improved varieties but higher in crude protein, metabolizable energy contents and in vitro organic matter digestibility. The apparent digestibility of dry matter and crude protein of sheep fed Walki and Mosisa straws were higher than (p<0.05) straws from Shallo varieties. Sheep fed Walki straw had greater (p<0.05) dry matter intake, average daily gain and feed conversion efficiency than sheep fed local and Shallo straws. Slaughter body weight and empty body weight were higher (p<0.05) for sheep fed Mosisa and Walki straws as compared to sheep fed Shallo straws. Apart from this, the other carcass components were not affected (p>0.05) by variety of the faba bean straws. Conclusion: There is significant varietal differences between faba bean straws both in quality and quantity. Similarly, significant variation was observed in feed intake, digestibility, body weight gain and feed conversion efficiency among sheep fed different straws of faba bean varieties with concentrate supplement. Based on these results, Walki and Mosisa varieties could be recommended as pulse crop rotation with cereals in the study area.

  • Several species and varieties of Allium spp. grown in Indonesia were screened for their in vitro antiplatelet aggregation activities. The extracts were also analyzed by GC for their volatile sulfur-containing compounds, and measured for their Volatile Reducing Substances (VRS) contents. Antiplatelet aggregation potencies of Allium spp. were varied among the species and varieties studied. Garlic extracts showed the greatest ability to inhibit platelet aggregation followed by extract of shallot, chive, yellow onion, and green onion. The 'Jawi' and 'local Padang' variety of garlic showed high activities with $IC_{50}$ values of 9.1 and $9.8\;{\mu}g/ml$, respectively. The local Kupang variety of shallot showed the highest antiplatelet activity among the shallot varieties evaluated, with an $IC_{50}$ value of $111\;{\mu}g/ml$. Antiplatelet aggregation activities of Allium extracts showed a positive correlation with the level of volatile compounds.

  • This study was conducted to investigate morphological characteristics of Korean local garlic varieties and to define the genetic variability and the correlations amongthe characters associated with yield. The plant height, the leaf sheath diameter, the nubmer of leaves, and bulb weight were significantly increased in the garlic plants from heavier seed bulbs. The proportation of six clove bulbs was more than 60% in Seosan variety and this was not realted with the number of cloves in seed bulb. While more than 70% bulbs in Jeoksung and Danyang varieties cultivated in paddy field were composed of 6 or 7 cloves, majority of the bulbs of Euisung and Danyang varieties cultivated in upland were composed of bulbs with 7 cloves or more. The highest genotypic coefficient of variation (GCV) and phenotypic coefficient of variation (PCV) were observed in bulb weight. GCV and PCV also showed high value in leaf sheath diameter. Thus, there is a greater scope for selection of these characters. The small difference between PCV and GCV values in plant height indicates that the environmental influence would be limited in this character. High heritability was observed of plant height (56.76%) and bulb weight (45.95%). And the weight per bulb (34.24%) exhibited highest genitic advance followed by leaf sheath diameter (18.8%) and plant height (9.61%), and those would be the ideal characters for selelction.

  • The fatty acid compositions of lipids from five local varieties and three imported varieties of soybean were determined. Total and free lipids of the samples were extracted with chloroform-methanol mixture (2:1, v/v) and ethyl ether, respectively. The ether-extracted samples were extracted again with water saturated n-butanol to obtain bound lipids. The average percent contents of the lipid fractions were 21% (total), 18% (free), and 3.3% (bound). The results indicated that seven fatty acids (10:0, 12:0, 14:0, 16:0, 17:0, 20:0 and 22:0) were identified as minor fatty acids for all the varieties examined in this study. The relative contents of 18:2 were the highest (50.1-59.7%) in all the lipid fractions, and the contents in total and free lipids were in-fluenced by the local varieties. Little difference in fatty acid composition was noted between the total and free lipids of the samples. Total and free lipids contained more 18:1 (about 10%) and less 16:0 (about 40%) and 14:0 (about 34%) than did the bound lipids. The relative percent contents of 18:3 in the total, free and bound lipids were on average 8.9, 9.0, and 7.3 percents. The content in the total lipids of Gwanggyo varieties showed the highest level (11.1%), and in the bound lipids of Eundaedoo varieties the lowest (6.0%). In case of the total and free lipids, those varieties which showed higher relative contents of 18:1 generally had lower relative contents of 18:2 and 18:3.
