This study was carried out to investigate the agronomical and physicochemical properties of five newly bred sugary lines in YARI (Yeongnam Agricultural Research Institute) that developed from the cross of sugary and Hwayeongbyeo, Hwasambyeo and Seomjinbyeo. Culmlength of newly bred sugary lines were longer than that of Nampyeongbyeo as $84.2{\sim}99.3cm$. However the weight of 1,000 grains and yield were lower than that of Nampyeongbyeo by two to three times. According to physicochemical properties, most of the new bred sugary lines showed low contents of amylose and mineral compare to normal varieties. And all sugary lines showed much higher amount of the sucrose and glucose contents compare to Nampyeongbyeo. Especially the sucrose content of newly bred sugary line, 55413, was 5 times higher than that of Nampyeongbyeo nevertheless, fructooligosaccharide and isomaltooligsac charide were not detected. The amylopectin constitution of sugary lines showed more chairs of DP (Degree of Polymerization)<12 but fewer chains of DP $13{\sim}24$ compare to Nampyeongbyeo. Newly bred sugary lines were lower viscosity in RVA (Rapid Viscosity Analysis).

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.

Some physicochemical properties of sugary rices were comparatively analyzed with the original cultivars, using Hwachung su-1, su-2, and Nampung su lines bred in Seoul Nat'l Univ., and EM 5 bred in Kyushu Univ. Sugary rice grains were smaller in width and thickness, and the relative dry weight of 1000 grains of sugary rices ranged from 49% to 72%, compared to normal ones. No distinct starch granules were found in endosperm of sugary rices exposured by SEM, with structural variations between Hwachung su-1 and su-2 lines. Sugary rices showed the significant increases in sucrose, glucose and fructose content, especially much higher in sucrose content showing 5.84-8.79%, in comparison with the normal ones, 1.11∼2.65%. However, sucrose and total sugar content varied within sugary lines carrying the same sugary gene, and were significantly lower in Hwachung su-2. Sugary rices, except Hwachung su-1, showed the same or lower ADV and harder gel characteristics, compared to normal ones. Protein and lipid content were much higher in sugary rices, due to the increased relative proportion of aleurone layer in brown rice caused by thicker aleurone layer than in normal rices and the reduction of endosperm part. However, there were no remarkable changes in amino acid and fatty acid compositions.

A new, improved maize varieties are greatly needed to meet the national demand for the maize, and a new germplasm should be investigated to supply necessary breeding materials for the required maize breeding. The Korean local maize lines, which has never been wholly studied for the purpose of breeding should be enough to supply such breeding materials at least in Korea. The objectives of this study were to maintain useful Korean local lines, to investigate good plant characters and to analyze the Korean local maize lines in the respect of genetic make-up. A total of 820 lines and 200 lines were used for the present study. Lines to maintain were planted at experimental farm of the Crop Experiment Station, Office of Rural Development, Suwon and the lines to study genetic make-up were planted in Dae-jon. The summarized results are as follows : 1. A total of 1200 lines from 820 collections were sibbed for future use. 2. Two hundred collection were sibbed, selfed and testcrossed for genetic study in 1980. 3. Ten lines were surely confirmed as resistant lines to virus disease epidemic in most introduced maize varieties. 4. A dozen Lines were having three to four ears per plant. 5. Five lines were showing three to four tillers per plant. 6. One of the most significant and important finding through the study was to obtain the lines with three to four tillers bearing all together eight to nine ears. The lines of multi-ears and multi-tillers must have great breeding potential for the future use. 7. A great variation was observed in the tasselling days, 100 kernel weight and protein content. 8. From the genetic study of local maize lines for plant height and 100 kernel weight, the following findings were obtained. a. On the average six percent of inbreeding depression expressed in percent decrease over sibbed counterpart were found for the plant height. b. Fourty percent of heterosis expressed in percent increase over sibbed counterpart were observed in the plant height. c. The homogeneity or degree of homozygosity calculated from heterosis minus inbreeding depression was on the average 34 percent for plant height. d. The average inbreeding depression expressed in percent decrease over sibbed counterpart was 15 percent for 100 kernel weight. e. The average heterosis expressed in percent increase over sibbed counterpart was 43 percent for 100 kernel weight. f. The degree of homozygosity calculated from the heterosis minus inbreeding depression was 28 percent for 100 kernel weight.
