  • To develop a long term storage technique of soybean germplasm, fifty lines of soybean seeds were kept in storage room controlled by air-conditioner and dehumidifier at KAERI. The storage room was kept below 25$^{\circ}C$ of temperature and 60% relative humidity. Germinability of stored seeds was evaluated at every three or six months. On the other hand, the newly harvested seeds of the lines were accerelated aging at 40$^{\circ}C$ and 90% of relative humidity, and compared with non-accerelated seeds. The average germinability at the starting time of storage was 97% but the germinability was decreased to 62% at 42 months after storage in the storage room. The germinability seemed to be affected by seed size and seed coat color. The germinability of small seed lot tended to be higher than that of large seed lot, and the germination response in longer term of storage was greater than those of shorter term of storage. The accerelated aging test for 7 days proved to be a useful technique to pretest germinability of soybean seeds for assaying the relative storage potential.

  • Pod shape of twenty soybean (Glycine max L. Merrill) genotypes was evaluated quantitatively by image analysis using elliptic Fourier descriptors and their principal components. The closed contour of each pod projection was extracted, and 80 elliptic Fourier coefficients were calculated for each contour. The Fourier coefficients were standardized so that they were invariant of size, rotation, shift, and chain code starting point. Then, the principal components on the standardized Fourier coefficients were evaluated. The cumulative contribution at the fifth principal component was higher than $95\%$, indicating that the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth principal components represented the aspect ratio of the pod, the location of the pod centroid, the sharpness of the two pod tips and the roundness of the base in the pod contour, respectively. Analysis of variance revealed significant genotypic differences in these principal components and seed number per pod. As the principal components for pod shape varied continuously, pod shape might be controlled by polygenes. It was concluded that principal component scores based on elliptic Fourier descriptors yield seemed to be useful in quantitative parameters not only for evaluating soybean pod shape in a soybean breeding program but also for describing pod shape for evaluating soybean germplasm.

  • Genetic improvement of the cultivated soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr] may be possible through hybridization with its wild progenitor, G. soja Sieb. & Zucc. Interspecific cross between G. max (Hwangkeumkong) and G. soja (IT.182932) was made in the summer of 1997. In F$_2$ the percentage of plant height, nodes per plant, and pods per plant were high but gradually reduced from F$_2$ to F$_4$. In contrast pod length, seeds per pod, and 100-seeds weight were increased gradually through generations advanced. Wild variation as evident in F$_2$ in plant height, number of branches, pods per plant, and 100-seeds weight. Twenty six percent of the F$_2$, 44 % of the F$_3$ and 60% of the F$_4$ segregants showed more G. max traits. The combination of useful traits from both species is possible through interspecific hybridization. The characters that could be transferred from wild species to cultivated species are more pod number, better capacity, and resistance to disease and insects. The interspecific derivatives offer scope for selection for high grain yield. Therefore, introducing genes from G. soja to G. max could be contribute to greater genetic diversity of future cultivars. And semicultivated soybean had some desired characteristics including tolerance to adverse environments and multi-seed characters. It means the infusing of semicultivated germplasm to the cultivated soybean could increase number of seeds and pods per plant significantly, and consequently could enhance selecting potential on yield.

  • 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.

  • Phytophthora root and stem rot (PRSR) and wildfire disease (WFD) of soybean are frequently observed in the field of South Korea. The most environmentally friendly way to control PRSR and WFD is to use soybean varieties with resistance to Phytophthora sojae (P. sojae) and Pseudomonas amygdali pv. tabaci. Plant germplasm is an important gene pool for soybean breeding and improvement. In this study, hundreds of soybean accessions were evaluated for the two pathogens, and genome-wide association analyses were conducted using 104,955 SNPs to identify resistance loci for the two pathogens. Of 193 accessions, 46 genotypes showed resistance reaction, while 143 did susceptibility for PRSP. Twenty SNPs were significantly associated with resistance to P. sojae on chromosomes (Chr.) 3 and 4. Significant SNPs on Chr.3 were located within the known Rps gene region. A region on Chr. 4 is considered as a new candidate resistance loci. For evalation of resistance to WFD, 18, 31,74,36 and 34 genotypes were counted by a scale of 1-5, respectively. Five SNP markers on Chrs 9,11,12,17 and 18 were significantly associated with resistance to P. amygdali pv. tabaci. The identified SNPs and genomic regions will provide a useful information for further researches and breeding for resistance to P. sojae and P. amygdali pv. tabaci.

  • Soybean cyst nematode(SCN) (Heterodera glycines Ichinohe) causes the greatest yield loss to soybean compared to any other pest worldwide. Yield loss due to SCN is estimated 7.6 million megagrams in the USA and nearly 9 million worldwide. SCN causes yield reductions by feeding on plant nutrients, retarding root growth, and inhibiting Bradyrhizpbium japonicum(Kirchner) Buchanan nodulation. The primary methods for controlling SCN include planting resistant cultivars and rotation with nonhost crops. Genetically diverse field populations of SCN combined with the limited germplasm base of commercial soybean for resistance could potentially leads to population shifts over time, and this makes controlling H. glycines more difficult. This paper reviewed the importance of soybean, soybean cyst nematode, researches on resistance to SCN, and prospects. Tremendous effort must still be endeavored for elucidating resistance mechanisms and managing H. glycines in the soybean field.
