Rice contains a wealth of genetic diversity, both within Oryza sativa and in related A-genome species. Decades of genetic research into this diversity have identified dozens of major genes contributing to a wide variety of important traits, including disease resistance, abiotic stress tolerance (drought, salinity, submergence, heat, cold etc.), grain quality, flowering date and maturity and plant architecture. Yet despite these opportunities, very few of the major genes and QTLs known have been successfully applied through rice breeding programs to produce sustained changes in farmer's fields. This presentation will briefly examine some of the factors limiting application of major genes in the mainstream breeding programs, and steps that have been taken to alleviate those limitations. As a result of these interventions, dozens of major genes that were previously unavailable to breeders are now being used confidently in the variety development process. Case studies will be discussed of genes critical for blast resistance worldwide, rice yellow mottle virus for Africa, and new validated QTLs for salinity tolerance.

GASA는 GA에 의해 조절되는 식물 유전자로서, 여러 식물에 보존되어 있고 다양한 조직에서 식물의 생장과 발달 및 스트레스 반응에 관여하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 GASA 유전자를 현사시나무(Populus alba ${\times}$ P. glandulosa)에서 분리하여 이를 PagGASA라 명명하고, 유전자의 구조와 발현특성을 조사하였다. PagGASA 유전자는 95개의 아미노산으로 구성된 단백질을 암호화하며, 아미노 말단에 시그널 펩티드 영역과 카르복시 말단에 12개 시스테인 잔기가 보존되어 있다. PagGASA는 현사시나무의 염색체에 1 ~ 2 copy 존재하며, 꽃과 뿌리에서 높게 발현하였다. 또한 PagGASA는 GA 뿐 아니라 ABA와 JA, SA와 같은 스트레스 관련 식물 호르몬의 처리에 의해서 발현이 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 현사시나무에 형질전환하여 PagGASA를 과발현시킨 결과 건조 내성에 효과가 있음을 확인하였다. 따라서 PagGASA는 스트레스 관련 식물 호르몬 신호전달과 연결되어 건조 스트레스 방어기작에서 중요한 역할을 할 것으로 생각된다.

Two low temperature induced genes designated as SLTI66 and SLTI629 encoding KS-type dehydrin were heterologously expressed in E coli and A. thaliana. E coli cells expressing SLTI66 and SLTI629 protein grew better with iron stress compared to the control cells. Ectopic expression of SLTI629 conferred tolerance to iron stress in Arabidopsis but SLTI66 did not. Arabidopsis plants expressing SLTI66 showed enhanced tolerance to freezing and drought stress compared to those of wild type and SLTI629 lines. We propose that SLTI66 and SLTI629 play a different role as a protector against osmotic and metal stresses.

Zoysiagrass (Zoysia japonica Steud.), also called Korean or Japanese lawngrass, is the most popular warm-season turfgrass in Korea and is widely used for home lawns, parks, roadsides, golf courses and athletic fields. Its use is rapidly expanding in Korea and the other countries, due to its excellent characteristics which include tolerance to heat, drought and salinity. As the utilization area of this turfgrass increases, there is an increase in the demand for improved cultivars with disease and insect tolerance or with herbicide-tolerance or with extended greening periods. Conventional breeding methods have been used to improve the traits described above with limited success. However, with the advances in biotechnology, genetic transformation can be utilized for turfgrass improvement. In this paper, we review recent progress in biotechnological improvement of zoysiagrass and discuss future molecular breeding of this species.
