This study was carried out to examine whether the leaf size is likely to be used as a selection criterion for large seed genotype in soybean (Glycine. max (L.) Merr.) breeding program. Two hundred twenty nine soybean germplasms which had collected in Korea, United States, China and Japan were used in this experiment. The area of unifoliate leaf, middle leaflet of first trifoliate and third trifoliate leaf ranged from $3.2cm^2$ to $33.8cm^2$, 9.2 to $29.5cm^2$, and 7.2 to $58.9cm^2$, respectively. One hundred seed weight also showed great variation from 2.7 to 39.0 gram. The average leaf area of unifoliate, middle leaflet of first trifoliate and third trifoliate leaf were $15.7cm^2$, $18.1cm^2$ and $32.7cm^2$, respectively, and that of seed average weight was 17.2 gram per one hundred seed. Significantly positive correlations were observed between seed weight and leaf area of unifoliate (r=$0.80^{**}$), first trifoliate (r=$0.75^{**}$) and third trifoliate (r=$0.67^{**}$), respectively. Both the leaf length and leaf width of unifoliate, middle leaflet of first trifoliate and third trifoliate leaf were significantly positively correlated with seed weight and both the correlations of unifoliate were higher than the other leaves. The correlations of leaf width in soybean leaflet were higher than those of leaf length. Leaf length/width (L/W) ratio of upper leaf was higher than that of lower leaf in the leaf size. Both the leaf area and leaf width of unifoliate leaf are the most suitable predictive characteristics of early selection in related to seed weight for soybean breeding program.

An experiment was carried out to investigate possible use of several systemic insecticides as seed treatment to control some insect pests of rice, barley and soybean. The insecticides were impregnated with active carbon dust and $2\%$ water solution of methyl cellulose as skicker. The seeds were dressed with the insecticides: Fussol (Monofluoroacetamide), Dimethoate (0, 0-dimethyl-S-(N-methyl carbamoylmethyl) phosphorodithioate), Metasystox (0, 0-dimethyl 0-2 ethylthioethyl phosphorodithioate), Dimecron (0, 0-dimethyl (diethylamide-1-chlorocrotonyl) Phosphate). The seeds were treated at the rate of $4\%$ by grain weight. Effects of seed treatments with systemic insecticides on the seed germination and insecticidal effectiveness were tested. Fer rice, no seed germination was observed in Fussol treatment. Dimethoate, Metasystox and Dimecron showed a slight reduction in germination when seeds were sown 1 day after treatment, but they showed gradual reduction in germination when seeds were sown 20 and 45 days after treatment. Especially Diriethoate treatment showed significant reduction in germination after 20 and 45 days of storage. All the insecticides reduced seedling stands of barley somewhat. No plant emergence was observed in Fussol treatments after 25 and :to days of storage. In case of the 40 days of storge in barley seed treated with Dimethoate, Hetasystox and Dimecron there was no gignificant reduction in plant emergence except Fussol treatment. Dimethoate was highly toxic to the soybean seed viability. However, there was no significant reduction in the soybean germination after 1 day of storage. in Fussol, Metasystox and Dimecron treatments After 25 days of storag in Fussol and Dimethoate treatments, no plant emergence was observed, and there was $13.3\%$ emergence in Metasystox treatment, and $93.0\%$ emergence in Dimecron treatment. Dimethoate treatment in rice seed(variety Suwon # 82) showed $90\%$ mortality at the twentieth day and $33.3\%$ at the thirtieth day after sowing against the green rice leafhopper, Nephotettix cincticeps But no visible effectiveness was observed in Metasystox and Dimecron treatments. Dimethoate treatment in barley seed resulted in low population density of aphids. Rhopalosiphum spp. Final observation on the number of eggs per plant was made at the fiftieth day after sowing; 2 in Dimethoate, 4 in Fussol, 6 in Metasystox, 7 in Dimecron, and 13 in check plots. All the insecticides tested resulted in good insecticidal effectiveness against the aphids, Aulocorthum solani on soybean plant at the ninth day infestation after sowing. Dimethote, Metasystox, and Dimecron treated soybean plants was still effective in controlling the aphids to the eighteenth day infestation.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of supplements containing different energy sources in relation to mineral supplementation of steers grazing guineagrass (Panicum maximum cv Tanz$\hat{a}$nia) pasture, during the dry season. The experimental design was a randomized block with three treatments and four replications. The treatments consisted of a mineral supplementation and two other supplements, one based on corn seed and the other based on soybean hulls, and provided at 0.8% of body weight. Forty-eight, 12 month-old crossbred steers with an average initial body weight of 267 kg, were assigned to twelve paddocks (1,125 ha) of guineagrass. The animals that were fed with soybean hulls and corn seed presented a greater average daily gain (0.982 and 0.937) when compared with the mineral supplementation. Soybean hulls can be used as a satisfactory food source, replacing corn as an energy source in the supplementation of beef cattle without compromising animal performance.

Lunasin is small subunit peptide of coded from Gm2S-1 gene in soybean. It has been previously demonstrated that lunasin is a novel and promising cancer preventive peptide. Lunasin peptide is found only in the seed and not other tissues. And lunasin peptide starts to appear at 5 weeks after flowering and remains in the mature seed. We report here firstly lunasin peptide identified from soybean callus induced by the tissue culture and demonstrate its anticancer properties. The lunasin was identified and purified from soybean callus aged for 6 months. The callus lunasin($1{\mu}M$) inhibited the acetylation of histone H3 and H4 by 58.8% and 56.5%, respectively. And it fully inhibited foci formation compared to the values of the positive control(no lunasin) and negative control(no MCA). Purified lunasin was able to internalize into the cell and localized in the nucleus.

This experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect on evapotranspiration and yield of soybean according to different soil water conditions, and to find the optimum time and amount for irrigation in soybean cultivation. The difference between potential evapotranspiration (PET) and maximum evapotranspiration (MET) during growing season of soybean planted in lysimeter was higher during reproductive stage than during vegetative one. The maximum crop coefficient was obtained at beginning seed stage of soybean. Soil water coefficient of irrigation treatment was higher than that of non-irrigation treatment during soybean growth stage in field experiment. Grain yield was highest in lysimeter due to its high water use efficiency and evapotranspiration rate.

Soybean and beanpaste have been used as ore of the important food in Korea. Beanpaste is made from soybean(seed of Glycine max $M_{ERRIL}$, Leguminosae) by traditional fermentation. It was expected that the secondary metabolites might be formed by the action of some microorganisms or enzymes on the constituents primarily contained in soybean during manufacturing or storage of beanpaste. A systematic investigation on the chemical constituents was carried out. As a result, sterol glycoside named daucosterin, lipo-daucosterin have been isolated from the lipid fraction soybean and their structures elucidated basis of chemical and physicochemical evidences. A ratio of composition of the lipid constituents in soybean and beanpaste were estimated.

Soybeans with brown, black, and yellow seed coats were compared to total phenolic contents and antioxidant activities including 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2'-azino-bis-(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radicals. Also, 3 seed coats were examined for inhibitory activities on tyrosinase and lipoxygenase-1 on the basis of spectrophotometric and polarographic methods. Among seed coat extracts, 80% methanol extract of brown soybean seed coat showed the highest total phenolic contents ($68.9{\pm}3.29\;mg$ GAE/g) as well as exhibited potent scavenging effects on the DPPH ($IC_{50}=4.3\;{\mu}g/mL$) and ABTS ($IC_{50}=3.7\;{\mu}g/mL$) radicals. In a polarographic experiment, this extract was potentially inhibited the oxidation of L-tyrosine and L-3,4-dihydroxy-phenylalanin (L-DOPA) catalyzed by mushroom tyrosinase with $IC_{50}$ values of 12.4 and $63.7\;{\mu}g/mL$, respectively. It was also detected inhibition of the tyrosinase catalyzed oxidation of L-DOPA with an $IC_{50}$ value of 120.3 mg/mL in UV spectrophotometric experiment. In addition, this extract inhibited the linoleic acid peroxidation catalyzed by lipoxygenase-1 with an $IC_{50}$ value of $4.0\;{\mu}g/mL$. These results suggest that brown soybean may possess more beneficial effect on human health than black and yellow soybeans.

To examine ideal leaf types with higher $\textrm{CO}_2$ assimilates and different seed sizes, 12 soybean varieties were planted on the pot in a plastic house covered with glass. Leaf function based on stomatal conductance and $\textrm{CO}_2$ assimilation in soybean is different in seed size and leaflet shape. Mean $\textrm{CO}_2$ assimilation of a single leaf was 19.66 $\mu\textrm{molm}^{-2}\textrm{s}^{-1}$ and showed higher in small seed cultivars with narrow leaflet than that of small seeds with wide leaflet (18.29 $\mu\textrm{molm}^{-2}\textrm{s}^{-1}$), but within large seed groups, it was higher in wide leaflets (19.17 $\mu\textrm{molm}^{-2}\textrm{s}^{-1}$) than narrow leaflet cultivars (17.45 $\mu\textrm{molm}^{-2}\textrm{s}^{-1}$). In small seed and narrow leaflet cultivars, stomatal conductance ranged from 0.14 to 0.15 $\mu\textrm{molm}^{-2}\textrm{s}^{-1}$, while $\textrm{CO}_2$ assimilation ranged from 19 to 20 $\mu\textrm{molm}^{-2}\textrm{s}^{-1}$. The Photosynthetic rate was closely related to stomatal conductance, transpiration and water use efficiency.

This study aimed to investigate the quality characteristics of iced pumpkin paste cookies prepared using different fat and fatty oils (butter, olive oil, soybean oil, and grape seed oil). The pH, density, and moisture content were the highest in the cookies prepared with butter dough, and the lowest in the cookies prepared with grape seed oil dough. The spread factor of the cookies prepared using with butter was the highest, and the cookie with olive oil, soybean oil and grape seed oil showed lower values. The L values of olive oil cookies, a values of soybean oil cookies, b values of grape seed oil cookies were the highest. The hardness of the cookies prepared using soybean oil was the highest. The overall sensory evaluation showed high overall acceptability for grape seed oil cookies, whereas butter cookies showed lower overall acceptability. The acid value (AV) and peroxide value (POV) were lower in the grape seed oil cookies than in the butter cookies as the storage period of the cookies had passed.

Seed and pod numbers are the main yield components in soybean. Selection for increased yield potential is main goal of plant breeding. The objective of this study was to identify quantitative trait loci(QTLs) that control pod number per plant, seed number per plant and pod in soybean. The 117 $F_{2:10}$ recombinant inbred lines(RILs) developed from a cross of 'Keunolkong' and 'Shinpaldalkong' were used. Two independent QTLs for pod number per plant were identified from linkage group(LG) F and L. Two QTLs for seed number per plant were located on LG F and L. Seed number per pod was related with three QTLs located on LG D1a, D1b and F. Pod and seed number per plant have two common QTLs on LG F and L.
