The extraction yield, total phenolics content, antioxidant activity, cancer cell growth inhibition (A549 and MCF 7), and lung cancer cell (A549) viability of red rice and black rice were investigated, to evaluate the functional properties of colored rice. The extraction yields and the total phenolics contents of the rice cultivars were Heugseol > Heugkwang > Hongjinju > Jeogjinju > Ilpum. Also, the DPPH radical scavenging activity of the black rice did not differ from that of the red rice, whereas its activity among its cultivars was Jeogjinju > Heugseol > Heugkwang > Hongjinju > Ilpum. The ABTS antioxidant activity of the black rice (Heugkwang, Heugseol) was greater than that of the red rice. The total phenolics was partly attributed to its high antioxidant. On the other hand, the effect of the red rice on the lung cancer cell (A549) viability was higher than that of the black rice. The breast cancer cell (MCF 7) growth inhibition activity of the black rice did not differ from that of the red rice. Our results indicate that the ABTS antioxidant activity of black rice is better than that of red rice, and the lung cancer cell (A549) viability of red rice is better than that of black rice.

High temperature impairs rice grain yield and quality. To understand the effect of high temperature on leaf physiological activity and grain filling, two cultivars of rice that Dongan and Ilpum were exposed to high temperature during ripening stage. Grain filling rate, perfect grain ratio and grain weight of high temperature ($27^{\circ}C{\pm}4^{\circ}C$) treated both rice cultivars were decreased than those of control temperature ($22^{\circ}C{\pm}4^{\circ}C$) treated. The reduction rates of grain filling ratio, perfect grain ratio and grain weight of high temperature treated to control treated rice were higher in Ilpum than Dongan. Chlorophyll contents of rice leaves under high temperature at early ripening stage were higher than those of control temperature, but those were slowly decreased with no difference between temperature treatment since at mid ripening stage. Although chlorophyll a/b ratio under high temperature was decreased from heading to 15 days after heading, that was gradually increased since 15 days after heading. Protein concentrations of rice leaves for ripening stage was a similar pattern with chlorophyll changes. The rate of photosynthesis at 14 days after heading under high temperature was higher than those of control temperature, but there was no difference at those of 7 and 34 days after heading between two temperature treatment. Free sugars under high temperature treated leaves were lower than control temperature. Consequently, these results exhibit that high temperature accelerate leaf physiological activity as chlorophyll synthesis and photosynthesis rate unlike the deterioration of grain filling.

Previously, we found that the transgenic rice plants over-expressing the Arabidopsis $H^+/Ca^{2+}$ antiporter CAX 1 (accession no. U57411) gene accumulated 2.7 to 7.5-fold more calcium in the T3 rice grains as compared to those of control. To examine physiological safety of the $T_3$ rice grains, the effect of the $T_3$ brown rice on change in levels of body weight and white blood cells was compared with that of the control Ilpum brown rice by feeding trial in mice. During the feeding trial for one month, there was no significant difference between two mice groups, which were fed by the $T_3$ brown rice or Ilpum brown rice. There were no detectable differences in their effects on immune functions including plaque-forming unit, peritoneal macrophage number, and NK-cell activity. In addition, biochemical analysis of the blood failed to exhibit any difference between two mice groups. Together, these results suggested that the $T_3$ brown rice, which was produced from a genetically modified organism (GMO), might be safe and possess a potential to be applicable as calcium-fortified feed or food. Long-term safety of the $T_3$ brown rice, however, remains to be elucidated.

Changes of component(amino acid, free sugar, fatty acid and mineral) and antioxidant effect by pickling of soybeans we.e investigated. Soybean cultivars, Daewon, Pungsannamul, Hwaeum(yellow bean), Ilpum Black and Zynuni(black bean) were soaked in persimmon vinegar for 10 days at $20^{\circ}C$. The major amino acids of raw soybeans were glutamic acid, aspartic acid, lysine and leucine. The content of total amino acid decreased by pickling. The major free sugar of raw soybeans were glucose, fructose and sucrose. Sucrose decreased and glucose and fructose increased by pickling. Maltose was found only in pickled Daewon and Ilpum Black. Linoleic and linolenic acid content of raw soybeans were $49.3%{\sim}57.1%\;and\;7.8{\sim}8.9%$, and the fatty acid contents did not change by pickling. The major mineral elements were K, P and Mg, and their compositions except for Na did not change by pickling. Total phenolic compound, vitamin $B_1$ and C content increased during pickling. The antioxidant effects, electron donating abilities, nitrite-scavenging abilities increased by pickling.

The objective of this study was to evaluate difference of quality properties of between fresh cooked rice and re-heated cooked rice after retrogradation. Nine rice varieties raised by NICS were compared the properties of physicochemical, texture, sensory evaluation, toyo glossiness value, pasting properties. Among nine rice cultivars, the changes of weight and length-width ratio of after soaking as well as cooking showed how water absorbed in each rice granule. The amount of water absorption after soaking was highest in Wolback (semi-waxy), Hiami and lowest in Samgwang, Seonpum, Ilpum. After cooking, the amount of water absorption was high in Dasan 1 and Andabyeo, however low in Ilpum. In the length-width ratio after soaking, Wolback (semi-waxy cultivar) and Anda (indica cultivar) increase their volume relatively as their shape are while others increased more in length than width. Among cooked rice, the highest value of length-width ratio shows in Anda, Dasan1, Hiami and Seonpum, the Wolbak was similar to that of non-glutinous rice. After cooking, the others stored at $10^{\circ}C$ for 16 hours for retrogradation (imitated at convenience store). Then re-heated using by microwave. Pasting properties were considerably affected by storage temperature and periods of rice. The setback showed in the following order: Wolback (-92.25 RVU, the lowest retrogradation) < Seonpum (-35.20) < Chindle (-22.08) < Jungsanggold (-21.98). Toyo glossiness value of cooked rice showed in the following order: Chindle (82.40) > Samgwang (79.43) > Hiami (79.23). Sensory evaluation of re-heated rice of Jungsanggold, Samgwang, and Chindle were 78.97, 78.36, and 77.35, respectively. Hardness, elasticity, and toughness of re-heated rice ware increased compared to cooked rice, whereas cohesiveness was decreased. Hardness and elasticity is higher in Seonpum, Dasan1 and Hiami, toughness is higher in Jungsanggold, Samgwang and Wolbak. Cohesiveness of Jungsanggold and wolbak showed higher than others.

Bakanae disease is one of the most serious and oldest problems of rice production, which was first described in 1828 in Japan. This disease has also been identified in Asia, Africa, North America, and Italy. Germinating rice seeds in seed boxes for mechanical transplantation has caused many problems associated with diseases, including bakanae disease. Bakanae disease has become a serious problem in the breeding of hybrid rice, which involves the increased use of raising plants in seed beds. The indica rice variety Shingwang was selected as resistant donor to bakanae disease. One hundred sixty nine NILs, YR28297 ($BC_6F_4$) generated by five backcrosses of Shingwang with the genetic background of susceptible japonica variety, Ilpum were used for QTL analysis. Rice bakanae disease pathogen, CF283, was mainly used in this study and inoculation and evaluation of bakanae disease was performed with the method of the large-scale screening method developed by Kim et al. (2014). SSR markers evenly distributed in the entire rice chromosomes were selected from the Gramene database (http://www.gramene.org), and the polymorphic markers were used for frame mapping of a $BC_5F_5$ resistant line. Here, we developed 168 near-isogenic rice lines (NILs, $BC_6F_4$) to locate a QTL for resistance against bakanae disease. The lines were derived from a cross between Shingwang, a highly resistant variety (indica), and Ilpum, a highly susceptible variety (japonica). The 24 markers representing the Shingwang allele in a bakanae disease-resistant NIL, YR24982-9-1 (parental line of the $BC_6F_4$ NILs), were located on chromosome 1, 2, 7, 8, 10, 11, and 12. Single marker analysis using an SSR marker, RM9, showed that a major QTL was located on chromosome 1. The QTL explained 65 % of the total phenotype variation in $BC_6F_4$ NILs. The major QTL designated qBK1 was mapped in 91 kb region between InDel15 and InDel21. The identification of qBK1 and the closely linked SSR marker, InDel18, could be useful for improving rice bakanae disease resistance in marker-assisted breeding.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of 70% ethanol extracts of various germinated-rough rice cultivars: ('Ilpum', 'Goami2', 'Keunnun', 'Sulgaeng', 'Baegjinju', and 'Heugkwang') on proliferation of human cancer cell lines (MKN-45, HCT116 and NCI-H460). Antiproliferation effects of rough rice on different cancer cell lines were higher in after germination than before germination. The viability of HCT-116 colon cancer cells was lowest at 18.89% in after germination of 'Heugkwang' at 1.0 mg/mL. The cell viability of MKN-45 lung cancer cells and MKN-45 stomach cancer cells were in the range of 5~10% in after germination of 'Ilpum', 'Goami2', 'Baegjinju', and 'Sulgaeng', and 'Heugkwang' at 1.0 mg/mL. These results suggest that germinated rough rice might have a potential preventive effect on human cancer cells.

In order to confirm the biological activities of rice bran and hull, total phenolic content, antioxidant and anticancer activities were examined in three rice varieties that have different seed coat colors such as brown, black, and purple. The antioxidant activity was measured by free radical scavenging assay including DPPH, $ABTS^+$ and reducing power activity. The anticancer activity was evaluated by WST assay with human HepG2 cell lines. As the result, Huegjinju, black seed coat rice, showed higher of the total phenolics contents in both bran and hull, than purple Jeojinju and brown Ilpum. In the antioxidant activity, Heugjinju showed the highest among the bran extracts, but the activities of hull extracts were similar in three varieties. In the anticancer activity to HepG2 cell line, the hull extract was 20% higher than that of bran extract in the average of three varieties. The hull extracts of Ilpum and Jeokjinju showed similar anticancer activites about 92%, and that of Heugjinju showed the lowest activity of 30.4%. The anticancer activities of hull extracts in three varieties showed positive correlation with total phenolics contents, DPPH radical scavenging activities and reducing power activities. In conclusion, the rice bran and hull showed potent antioxidant and anticancer activities varied in three varieties that have different seed coat colors.

Early emergence of watermelon seeds was markedly enhanced by SMP treatment though the final emergence percentage was not significantly influenced. Mixing ratios of 10:1:5 and 10:1:6 (seed : Micro-Cel E : water by weight) were found to be most effective in promoting the early emergence of watermelon seeds primed for 72 hrs at $25^{\circ}C$. Even though the hypocotyl elongation was slightly promoted by SMP treatment, the hypocotyl diameter remained uninfluenced. Among the cultivars tested, 'House-Ilpum' and 'Surowang' showed the best response to the SMP treatment.

A simplex-lattice mixture design was applied to blend three varieties of rice; Ilpum (IP), Goami2 (G2) and Baegjinju (BJJ) all of which have very different physicochemical properties from one another. G2 and BJJ are mutant rice developed from IP. Increasing G2 portions in a rice blend increases indigestible carbohydrate contents. Blending at least 33.3% of G2 to either IP or BJJ increased indigestible carbohydrates, which were approximately $3.55{\pm}1.31\;to\;4.57{\pm}0.37$(g/100 g), respectively. Consumers rated higher than 6.0 (=like slightly) for the IP alone and binary blends of IP and BJJ, whereas less than 5.0 (=dislike moderately) for the blends containing G2 rice, indicating that consumers would not accept rice blends containing higher G2 portions. However, although blends with G2 were given lower consumer ratings, a rice blend with G2 could have health benefits in terms of nutritional and functional properties due to the higher indigestible carbohydrate contents.
