"Wonkwang" is a new sprout-soybean cultivar developed from the cross between Danyeobkong and MS91001 at the Honam Agricultural Research Institute (HARI) and National Institute of Crop Science (NICS), RDA, in 2007. The preliminary, advanced and regional yield trials to evaluate the performance of Iksan 56 were carried out from 2003 to 2007. This cultivar has a determinate growth habit, purple flower, grayish brown pubescence, yellow seed coat, Grayish brown hilum, lanceolate leaflet shape and small seed size (10.9 g/100 seeds). The maturity date of "Wonkwang" is three days later than the check variety, "Pungsan". It has a good seed quality for soybean-sprout and resistance to lodging. The soybean-sprouts grown from "Wonkwang" have high isoflavone ($3,481{\mu}g/g$)contents. This cultivar has resistance to soybean mosaic virus (SMV) and necrotic symptom (SMV-N) and other most troublesome soybean diseases which are bacterial pustule and black root rot. The grain yield of "Wonkwang"in the regional yield trials (RYT) for 3 consecutive years was averaged 3.05 ton per hectare, which was 8% higher than that of the check cultivar "Pungsan".

Mungbean(Vigna radiata (L.) R. Wilczek) is one of legume cultivated in south and east Asia. It well cultivated in high temperature and drought condition. In order to establish pure line for genomic studies, the agronomical characteristics of Korean mungbean landraces were evaluated. A total of 324 acessions derived from National Agrobiodiversity Center were selfed two times in 2021 nersery. Tree times of selfed from 324 accessions were characterized. The color of seed coat was divided into three groups: green, yellow and brown. Among them green color was the most common with 91.7%. Flower colors were divided into four groups: yellow, purplish yellow, greenish yellow and purplish green. Among them purplish yellow color had the highest with 77.8%. Out of 324 resources, only 4 showed compound leaves, and all resources had a heart-shaped leaf. The days to first flowering was 31 to 78 days. About 63% of the accessions bloomed 35 to 50 days after sowing. 324 Korean landraces are expected to be used as a population of the Korean mungbean core collection and serve as a basis for genomic breeding materials for mungbean.

The varietal difference, effect of root amounts and cultivation duration on the asparagine content of soybean sprouts, which is known to have the excellent detoxifying effect of ethanol, were investigated for developed varieties and indigenous sprout lines to establish cultivation methods of increasing the asparagine content and to develop soybean varieties having high asparagine content. Some of the research results obtained are summarized as follows; 1. Range and mean of asparagine content of 174 germplasm were 0.38~1.67% and 0.99%, respectively, on fresh weight basis. 2. Developed sprout-soybean varieties showed somewhat higher asparagine content of 1.29% than that of indigenous sprout lines of 0.96% on fresh weight basis. 3. No significant difference in asparagine content among the seed size groups was recognized though the highest asparagine content, 1.02% on fresh weight basis was observed in the seed size of 8.1~10.0g/100 seeds. 4. Among the seed coat color groups, soybean of brown seed coat color showed the highest asparagine content (1.15%) on fresh weight basis. No difference was observed among other groups of seed coat color. 5. Range of asparagine content of 174 varieties was 4.08~6.24% on dry weight basis. Soybean varieties that showed high asparagine content were Dawonkong, Sobacknamulkong, Sowonkong, and Somyungkong, with the contents of 6.24%, 6.21%, 5.95%, and 5.85%, respectively. 6. Amount of roots which have the highest asparagine content out of sprout parts was greatly increased up to 10 days of sprout cultivation. 7. Highly significant difference in asparagne content of sprout was recognized between those grown for five and ten days, with the asparagine content of 0.68% and 1.21%, respectively, on fresh weight basis. 8. Asparagine content of hypocotyle part was also highly proportional to days to cultivation; it increased from 2.91% at 2 days of cultivation to 15.68% on fresh weight basis at 14 days of cultivation.

These experiments were conducted to investigate the growth and characteristics of Adenophora triphylla DC. seed, and effects of some pretreatments and light condition on the gemination of it. The results were as follows. Seed coat was soft and white at 30 days after flowering, but it became hard and brown from 40 days. The 1,000 grain weight was 247mg at 40 days after flowering and high at 50 days as 268mg, and decreased from 60 days. Germination percentage was highest at 100ppm $GA_3$ treatment for 24 hours as 96.7% and 88.3% at moistured treatment at $0^{\circ}C$ for 7 days, but only 40% at control. Adenophora triphylla. seed was light germinator, but it could be germinated 80% even under dark condition if $GA_3$ was treated 100ppm for 24 hours. The optimum temperature of germination in Adenophora triphylla. seeds was $25^{\circ}C$.

Habit characteristics of imperfect and perfect stage of D. bryoniae encountered on naturally infected seeds of cucumber and pumpkin were studied by the blotter method and compared with those grown on Difco potato dextrose agar (PDA), V-8 juice agar and water agar leaf medium (WALM). Most of the pycnidiospores obtained from each isolate of this fungus grown on PDA were non-septate and microtype. Non-septate pycnidiospores were predominanted in all isolates, but a macrotype of the non-septate and a number of uniseptate pycnidiospores were produced on V-8 juice agar and water agar leaf medium. On seed the pycnidiospores were mostly non -septate, but rarely uniseptate ones were also found. On radicle of cucumber seed, the pycnidiospores were non-septate and uniseptate but small percentage biseptate with somewhat constricted at septa. Pycnidiospores produced on V-8 juice agar and water agar leaf medium were similar to those produced on seeds. In the present investigation the perithecia were mostly globose to subglobose with apical papillate ostiole and whitish spore masses formed on the ostiole of perithecia, either on naturally infected seed or on culture media. The mature perithecia were dark brown to black. They were partially embedded or erumpent on seed coat and culture media. The perithecia varied in size within a much narrower range than the pycnidia. But perithecial formation of this fungus on PDA, V-8 juice agar, WALM and seed varied considerably depending upon isolate and culture media.

This study was carried out to investigate the possibility of establishing a reproductive system for the seed of Pedicularis hallaisanensis, which is in the endangered wild species II class in Korea. The seed of P. hallaisanensis is egg-shaped, and the seed coat is dark brown. The embryo was identified as a dwarf type by the seed section. The seed length was $0.47{\pm}0.07mm$, width $0.16{\pm}0.006mm$, and thickness $0.12{\pm}0.01mm$. The weight of one seed was $0.0003{\pm}0.0001mg$, and 1000 seeds weighed $4.59{\pm}0.02mg$. The degree of seed viability was 75.33% by the tetrazolium (TZ) assay. The highest germination rate of P. hallaisanensis seed was 71% after 4 weeks of storage at $4^{\circ}C$. However, the germination rate tended to decrease gradually over a longer storage period. The germination rates after 6 or 8 weeks of storage at $4^{\circ}C$ were 64% and 60%, respectively. We used two host plants, Artemisia princeps and Dendranthema zawadskii, to determine the effect of host plants on P. hallaisanensis seed germination. The germination of P. hallaisanensis mixed with A. princeps or D. zawadskii started at 53.5 and 62.5 days after sowing, respectively. We did not find any germination 164 days postsowing with both host plants. When A. princeps and D. zawadskii were used as host plants for P. hallaisanensis seed germination, P. hallaisanensis seed germination rates were 45.5% and 19.5%, respectively. The average time to germination was 70.2 days for A. princeps, and 46.8 days for D. zawadskii.

A total of 192 Korean landraces were investigated for the comparison of each other as useful germplasm to organic farming and examined correlation between quantitative traits. Almost Korean landraces were classified into medium-heading variety and average days from seeding to heading was 111.1 days. Plant height and culm length were longer about 20∼40cm than general Japonica cultivar. Average width of leaf blade and average length of panicle were 1.3cm and 22.4cm, respectively, Average number of panicles per plant was 10.0 and almost varieties showed low tilling habit. Average length/width ratio of brown rice was 1.7 and several varieties were long grain type and average 1,000 grain weight was 21.6g. In correlation coefficient among quantitative traits, positive significant correlations were observed between culm length and leaf width, days from seeding to heading, but negative correlations were observed between days from seeding to heading and 1000 grain weight. 27.1% of Korean landraces showed weak and lodging degree in culm strength and 3.6% of total varieties showed purple margin on leaf blade and leaf sheath. In leaf blade angle and flag leaf angle, erect type was 46.9% and 10.9%, respectively. 24.0% of total varieties showed the slow and late degree of leaf senescence. The rate of awned type, waxy type and brown seed coat were 74.5%, 20.3% and 4.2%, respectively. The color of stigma, spikelet, apiculus and awn showed diverse color such as white, brown, red and purple.

This experiment was conducted to study germination characteristics and the decrease cause of germination percent in Angelica gigas Nakai seed. The emergence percent of winter sowing was higher than that of spring sowing as 66.6% and 41.1%, respectively, and the first emergence date was also earlier in winter sowing. The seed germination speed, percent and coefficent showed the highest value at $20^{\circ}C$ of incubation temperature, but lower value at $10^{\circ}C\;and\;30^{\circ}C$. The water uptake speed was increased along with increasing water temperature. The weight of imbibed seed at germination was 3.4times higher based on the weight of intact dry seed and 2.3times on removal of seed coat. In terms of length of seed was large, the germination percent was higher. The germination percent of brown colored seeds showed higher value than that of green colored seeds. The prolonged storage period decreased germination percent. When A.gigas seeds stored at room temperatue for 2years, the seeds were lost their viability. The biological inhibition effect of methanol, water and ether extract on the germination and growth of A.gigas and lettuce seed showed the highest value in the methanol extract, followed by water extract and the least in ether extract.
