This study was conducted to obtain the information of varietal development using wild soybean through investigation of variation and heredity of major agronomic characters in $F_2$ generation of interspecific cross between Glycine max and G. soja. In segregating populations of two crosses, all characters observed except 100-seed weight showed transgressive segregation. Days to flowering showed normal distribution; mean days to flowering in $F_1$, and $F_2$ was approximately mean of parent. Mean of $F_1$ for 100-seed weight was 6.2g and 5.7g for Eunhakong/KLG10084 and Sohaegnamulkong/KLG10084, respectively, which were somewhat skewed distribution to small seeded parents. Mean seed yield of $F_2$ was about mean of two parents. Degree of vine was 6.4 and 5.7 in $F_1$ for two crosses but it was 6.0 in $F_2$ for Eonbakong/KLG10084, which revealed the degree of vine as partial dominance while 4.6 for Sobaegnamulkong/KLG10084, somewhat different results from the previous cross. Broad-sense heritability($h^2B$) for plant height, days to flowering, pods per plant, seed yield, and degree of vine was comparatively high and narrow-sense heritability($h^2B$) for 100-seed weight which is the moot important character in the development of small seed-size sprout soybean was 52.3% and 65.6% for Eunhakong/KLG10084 and Sohaegnamulkong/KLG10084, respectively, which indicated that selection for the character in early generation was possible.

This study was conducted to identify the differences in proteomic characteristics of 'Agakong', recombinant inbred line, and its parental genotypes 'Eunhakong' (Glycine max) and 'KLG10084' (G. soja). The isoflavone content of 'Agakong' was 3 times higher than that of its parental lines. A combined high-throughput proteomic approach was employed to determine the expression profile and identity of proteins using 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry. The overall distribution patterns of proteins are quite similar, but lots of protein spot intensities varied among the genotypes. A total of 41 proteins, representing significant difference in the quantities of protein among the lines, were successfully identified. Among them, more than 50% of the proteins identified were subunits of glycinin and $\beta$-conglycinin, 2 major storage proteins. This study showed that the proteomic analysis could help to define specific changes in protein level and composition, which can occur in the generation of new soybean varieties.
