Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] seeds contain an average of 40% protein on a dry weight basis, but they also contain antinutritional elements such as lectin, Kunitz trypsin inhibitor (KTI), and 7S α'- subunit protein. The objective of this research was to develop a new soybean genotype with triple recessive alleles for these elements. Three parents (Gaechuck#2, PI506876, and Le-16) were used to develop the genetic population, and the presence of lectin and KTI protein was detected using Western blot while 7S α' subunit protein was detected using SDS-PAGE. One F₃ plant strain with proper agronomical traits such as type, height, seed quality, and 100-seed weight was selected. The genotype of the developed strain is titilelecgy1cgy1, that is KTI, lectin, and 7S α' subunit protein free. The new strain has a purple flower, determinate growth habit, and light yellow pods at maturity. The seed has a buffer hilum and is yellow in color. The new strain's height was 58 cm compared to the Daewonkong cultivar at 46 cm, and its 100-seed weight was 27.1 g, smaller than the Daewonkong at 29.0 g. This is the first new soybean strain with the titilelecgy1cgy1 genotype, and it can be used to improve yellow soybean cultivars of high quality and function.

A study on the optimum hydrolysis conditions of fish skin through the aid of enzymes and the development of a natural seasoning using the hydrolysate has been carried out for the effective utilization of fish skin. Using the "pH-drop" techniques the collagenase and pronase were identified as most suitable for this purpose. The $K_m$ and $V_{max}$ values of pronase were 1.82 mgN/ml and 0.06 mgN/mL/min, respectively. The hydrolysis conditions of the cod skin for the pronase were as follows: reaction temperature, $50^{\circ}C$; reaction time, 3hrs; pH 6; enzyme concentration, 0.03%. The degree of hydrolysis at these conditions was 76.8%. But after hydrolyzing cod skin with collagenase for 1hr, when the pronase was treated, the degree of hydrolysis was 83.13%. The molecular weight of the hydrolysate was 8,000 daltons. Among the amino acids in the hydrolysate, glycine(27.95%), glutamic acid(10.94%), proline(7.39%), aspartic acid(9.47%) and serine(7.39%) were responsible for 64.23% of the total amino acids. But valine, methionine, isoleucine, leucine, phenylalanine and histidine having a bitter taste were only 13.05%. From the results of the sensory evaluation, the imitation sauce which was made of 20% fermented soy sauce prepared from the hydrolysate was at least similar to the traditional soybean sauce in product quality. The complex seasoning containing 31.7% of the hydrolysate was nearly equal to complex seasonings on the market, too.

In order to elucidate the ecological and phenological responses of bean under global warming situation, we investigated leafing and flowering phenomena and growth traits of Baktae and Seomoktae in control plot (ambient $CO_2$ concentration and temperature) and warmed plot (elevated $CO_2$ concentration and increased temperature than control) in green house. Average $CO_2$ concentration and temperature were set 540 ppm in treatment and higher $2.2^{\circ}C$ in treatment than control. The appearance of leaf unfolding and the initiation of blooming and fruit maturing in Seomoktae were late in treatment than control. In case of Baktae, the number of total pods and seeds per plant in treatment was fewer than that in control. For Seomoktae, the number of total pods per plant and weight of total seeds per plant were decreased in treatment than in control. Thus, the number of pods and seeds of Baktae declined and the production of Seomoktae was decreased under global warming condition. This result indicates that site selection and crop yield for cultivating of the bean may be changed into new area due to global warming condition.

Efficient in vitro regeneration system is essential for the successful crop breeding of soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) using the new biotechnology. The genotype of donor plants strongly influences the establishment of tissue culture system. Therefore, the screening of genotypes with excellent tissue culture ability is very important for soybean genetic improvement. In this study, we report the tissue culture efficiency of 21 soybean cultivars belong to Korean soybean core-collection and two foreign cultivars (Jack and Maverick). The Kwangan, Anpyeong and Seonam are share close genetic relationship in 21 cultivars and these three cultivars were observed the high frequency of germination and regeneration. Furthermore, the high tissue culture abilities were also observed in the Williams 82 used in reference genome sequencing and the two foreign cultivars. The transformation of pBAtc:tRNA with bar gene was performed by Agrobacterium tumefaciens in the cultivars with high tissue culture ability. Transformation of the bar gene was identified by PCR analysis in Kwangan, Pungwon, Seonam, and Maverick. Our results provide useful information for the breeding of various soybean cultivars by plant biotechnology such as, genome editing.

Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] is one of the major food sources of protein, oil, carbohydrates, isoflavones, and other nutrients for both humans and animals. However, soybean seeds contain antinutritional factors, such as lectin protein, Kunitz Trypsin Inhibitor (KTI) protein, and stachyose. The objective of this research was to stack recessive alleles for development a triple recessive genotype, titilelers2rs2, with low KTI protein, lectin protein, and stachyose contents. Three parents (Gaechuck#2, PI200508, and 14G20) were used to develop the breeding population. The presence or absence of the lectin and KTI proteins was detected by western blotting. The stachyose content in mature seeds was determined by HPLC. Agronomic traits, such as plant type, plant height, maturity date, lodging, seed quality, and 100-seed weight, were evaluated for the four $F_3$ plant strains. One $F_4$ plant strain with the desired agronomical traits was selected. One new strain with the triple recessive titilelers2rs2 genotype was developed. The plant height of the new strain was 51 cm and the 100-seed weight was 31.0 g. The new strain had a yellow seed coat and yellow hilum. The stachyose content of the new strain was 3.8 g/kg. One strain developed in this research will be used to produce improved yellow soybean cultivars that are free of lectin and KTI proteins and low in stachyose content.

Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] seed is an important dietary source of protein, oil, carbohydrates, isoflavones, and other nutrients for humans and animals. But, antinutritional factors in the raw mature soybean are exist. Kunitz trypsin inhibitor (KTI) protein and stachyose are main antinutritional factors in soybean seed. The genetic removal of the antinutritional factors will improve the nutritional value of soybean seed. The objective of this research was to breed a new yellow soybean strains (rs2rs2titi genotype) with the traits of lacking of KTI protein and low content of stachyose. Breeding population was developed from the cross of "Jinyangkong" and 15G1 parents. Presence or absence of KTI protein was detected based on Western Blot technique. Content of stachyose in mature seed was detected by HPLC. Total four new strains (603-1, 603-2, 625, and 694) with KTI protein free and low content of stachyose were selected. Four strains (603-1, 603-2, 625, and 694) have yellow seed coat and hilum. Plant height of 603-1 strain was 65 cm and 100-seed weight was 29.2 g. Plant height of 603-2 strain was 66 cm and 100-seed weight was 26.2 g. Plant height of 625 strain was 64 cm and 100-seed weight was 27.1 g. Content of stachyose for four new strains was 3.0~3.50 g/kg. Four strains selected in this research will be used to improve new yellow soybean cultivar with KTI protein free, and low content of stachyose.

Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] is grown worldwide for its high protein and oil content. Anthocyanins from black soybean seed coats are known to have many pharmaceutical effects. Soybean cultivars with large seed sizes and black seed coats are needed by soybean farmers. However, antinutritional factors, like protein, stachyose, and Kunitz trypsin inhibitor (KTI) exist in raw mature soybeans. Genetic elimination or reduction of these components is needed in soybean breeding. The objective of this research was to develop new a soybean strain with black seed coats and green cotyledons that was KTI protein free and low in stachyose. Six parents were used. The presence or absence of KTI protein was detected using the Western blot technique. The content of stachyose in mature seeds was detected using HPLC. One new strain was selected from 11 $F_2$ plants with black seed coats and green cotyledons that lacked KTI protein. The new strain had black seed coats and green cotyledons and was KTI protein free and low in stachyose. The plant height of the new strain was 66 cm, and its 100-seed weight was 28.4 g. The stachyose content of the new strain was 2.59 g/kg. The new strain developed in this research will be used to develop new cultivars that are KTI protein free and low in stachyose.

Recently, Black soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.) is being cultivated in paddy fields instead of rice. However, research related to the effective sowing date is insufficient in paddy fields. This study aimed to identify the sowing date for stable cultivation of black soybean by investigating its yield and seed characteristics in a paddy field. In the study, cultivation experiment with five different sowing dates (May 25, June 10, June 25, July 10, July 25) were conducted in 2019 and 2020. Days from sowing to flowering can be shortened by delaying the sowing date. In the present study, the yield of black soybean in paddy fields was the highest with June 10 as the sowing date and was calculated as 224 kg·10a^-1 and 200 kg·10a^-1 in 2019 and 2020, respectively. However, the highest values of seed coat cracking was 51.1±5.1% and that of total anthocyanin contents was the 3.99±0.72 mg/g, both of which were observed in 2020 for the experiment with May 25 as the sowing date. Regression analysis showed a positive correlation (R²=0.9312) between soil water contents and seed coat cracking rate during the flowering period. Hence, the soil water contents during the flowering period would have a negative effect on the seed coat development.

In vitro digestibility and protein digestibility corrected amino acid scores (PDCAAS) were investigated to verify the availability of protein in various Rhizopus oligosporus fermented products of domestic soybean (Glycine max L.) cultivars. Danbaegkong (DBK), Daepung (DP), Daewonkong (DWK), Saedanbaek (SDB), Seonyu (SY), and Cheongja4ho (CJ4) were used as raw samples, which were fermented using commercially available Rhizopus oligosporus for 48 h. All cultivars showed increased crude protein content after fermentation. The crude protein content of DBK and SDB was significantly higher than that of the other samples (55.12% in DBK and 54.22% in SDB) (p<0.001). CJ4 had the highest alanine content of 28.88 mg/g (p<0.001), and no significant difference in cysteine content was detected among the cultivars. In most of the fermented samples, the in vitro digestibility was 0.9 or higher, indicating high protein in the fermented samples. However, it is considered that restrictions on digestion are low. In DWK, the amino acid content and PDCAAS, which together indicate protein quality, were 0.917 and 0.855, respectively, confirming that it was the best cultivar to provide the raw material for fermentation. In conclusion Rhizopus oligosporus fermented soybean products can be considered a prospective source of protein with high utility value.

The object of this study was to investigate the differences in dry matter production, physiological characteristic and grain yield of soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) as affected by planting dates in southern region of Korea. This experiment was conducted using four planting dates and four varieties over 3 years (1982-1984). The different responses of soybean varieties to different temperature and daylength, days from planting to flowering were ranged from 43 to 55 days when planted on May 10 long daylength and low temperature condition. Flowering duration was ranged from 12 to 27 days and 9 to 13 days for the plantings made on May 10 and July 9, respectively. Therefore, it was the shortest under the short daylength and high tempera-ture condition. It also appeared that the later planting caused the lower dry matter weight and leaf area index which resulted in lower grain yield. But grain yield was not directly correlated with the unbalance of Xink/Source Ratio and the lodging from excessive vegatative growth. The grain yield was the highest in May 30 and the lowest in July 9 planting: it was ranged from 2.26 to 2.55 t/ha in the former and 0.85 to 1.20 t/ha in the latter, respectively. The increase in yield was depended on the increase in the number of pods per plant, the number of seeds per pod and the seed weight. The distribution ratio of dry matter to leaves was the hightest at the sixth trifoliolate leaf stage and gradually declined thereafter in all planting dates, and it also appeared that the later planting, the lower the ratio of dry matter to leaves.
