The effects of leaf removal time on variation of nodal sink components in determinated soybean ［Glycine max （L.） Merr.］ cultivar 'Danyeobkong' were measured at the experiment field of Chonbuk Provincial Rural Development Administration in 1991. Node order in this experiment was calculated from terminal node to bottom node to clarify the photosynthetic ability of canopy leaves. The upper 5 leaves from terminal node of main stem were removed at 5, 15, 25, 35 and 45 days after flowering(DAF) respectively. In spite of light-receiving increment in lower part of main stem and in branch by removing the upper part leaves of main stem, seed weight of that part was not increased in leaf removal treatment compared with control block. The node position reducing pod went down from terminal to bottom by delaying leaf removal time, and the influence of pod number reduction was bigger in DAF 25 than in DAF 15. But the seed number reduction per pod was the biggest in DAF 35. Cracked seed coat ratio ranged from 25% to 35% in control block, while that of leaf removal block had mostly 10% gap compared with the control block.rol block.

Effects of leaf and pod removal on changes in dry weight and on the contents of soluble sugar, starch, protein and oil in leaves and seeds of soybean [Glycine max(L.) Merr.] cultivar ‘Hwangkeumkong’ were measured at the research farm of Korea University in 1992. The upper 40% and lower 60% of leaves and pods were subjected to treatments at the growth stage of beginning pod(R3). Upper leaf-lower pod removal showed the highest leaf and the lowest seed dry weights. Soluble sugar content was no different among treatments in leaves and seeds. The highest starch content was found in leaves of upper leaf-lower pod removal. Protein content was higher in lower leaves than upper leaves and the lowest in seeds of lower leaf-upper pod removal which had the highest oil content in leaves and seeds. These results apparently indicated that photoassimilates were mobilized from upper leaves to lower seeds, and protein sources were moved from lower to upper parts but weak in remobilization from leaves for the long distance translocation during the reproductive growth period.

Germination and seedling length of soybean seeds (cultivar: Williams) with and without polyethylene glycol-8000 (PEG) treatments were measured following preconditioning at two temperatures (15 and 30$^{\circ}C$) and two moisture levels 〔low (30 percent) and high (50 percent seed water content)〕 for 0, 2, 4, or 8 days. A split-split plot in time was used with four replications. Observations were made after two days of germination at 30$^{\circ}C$ Seedling growth accelerated with two days of preconditioning at 30$^{\circ}C$, but was reduced as preconditioning duration increased up to eight days at the same temperature. PEG treated preconditioned seeds exhibited reduced moisture uptake and seedling growth. Preconditioning at a high moisture level increased seedling moisture content and also increased seedling length until four days of preconditioning duration. Seedling dry weight decreased when preconditioning temperature was 30$^{\circ}C$ and when the high moisture level of preconditioning was continued for eight days.

The effects of leaf and pod removal on variation of nodal sink components in determinate soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] cultivar 'Danyeobkong' were measured at the experiment field of Chonbuk Provincial Rural Development Administration in 1991. Contrary to the conventional numbering system, node order in this experiment was numbered from top to bottom node. The leaves and pods of main stem from terminal to 5th node, below 6th node, or branches were removed at the growth stage of beginning pod(R3). In the leaf removal treatment, number and weight of pod and seed were highly decreased in upper part leaf removal, especially in removed part. In the pod removal treatment, number and weight of pod and seed were slightly increased in the other part. Cracked seed coat ratios were also high in the leaf removal treatment compared with control but low in the pod removal treatment.

The effects of retardants B995 and CCC on the growth and yield of soybean cultivar, kwanggyo, were investigated. The 3 application times(4th, 5th and 6th trifoliate leaf stage) combined with 4 concentrations (500, 1000, 2000 and 3000 ppm) were treated, and the retardant solutions were sprayed on the foliage. Only stem length in retardants, rate of podding in application times, and, in concentrations, stem length, number of branch, number of pod per plant and grain yield, were significant. In the inhibition of stem elongation, B995 was more effective than CCC, and rate of podding was the highest in the 4th leaf-spraying. The highest concentration, 3000 ppm, was the most effective in the inhibition of stem elongation and in the increase of number of branch and pod, rate of podding, and in yield. The number of node of mainstem, dry stem weight, chlorophyll and 100 grain weight were not significant with any treat. Yield had positively correlated with number of branch and pod, and rate of podding but negatively with stem length. The retardants was thought to be considerably conducive to the increase of yield.

Collected 38 colored soybeans, which was cultivated under the conventional field conditions, were investigated about their organeloptic parameters and correlations among factors such as organeloptic score, texturometer parameters and chemical components of seeds. Most of the organeloptic parameters were affect much more by the characteristics of each cultivars than by grain weight, and then showed significant differences with the effect of interactinon between grain weight and cultivar, too. Also among contribution degrees of texturometer scores to overall acceptance, cohesiveness was higher in small, medium and super grains, however in large grains, hardness. And among sensory attributes, suitable toughness was contribute most positively to acceptance.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the fatty acid profiles in 18 soybean cultivars grown in Korea. A total of eleven fatty acids were identified in the sample set, which was comprised of myristic (C14:0), palmitic (C16:0), palmitoleic (C16:1, ${\omega}7$), stearic (C18:0), oleic (C18:1, ${\omega}9$), linoleic (C18:2, ${\omega}6$), linolenic (C18:3, ${\omega}3$), arachidic (C20:0), gondoic (C20:1, ${\omega}9$), behenic (C22:0), and lignoceric (C24:0) acids by gas-liquid chromatography with flame ionization detector (GC-FID). Based on their color, yellow-, black-, brown-, and green-colored cultivars were denoted. Correlation coefficients (r) between the nine major fatty acids identified (two trace fatty acids, myristic and palmitoleic, were not included in the study) were generated and revealed an inverse association between oleic and linoleic acids (r=-0.94, p<0.05), while stearic acid was positively correlated to arachidic acid (r=0.72, p<0.05). Principal component analysis (PCA) of the fatty acid data yielded four significant principal components (PCs; i.e., eigenvalues>1), which together account for 81.49% of the total variance in the data set; with PC1 contributing 28.16% of the total. Eigen analysis of the correlation matrix loadings of the four significant PCs revealed that PC1 was mainly contributed to by oleic, linoleic, and gondoic acids, PC2 by stearic, linolenic and arachidic acids, PC3 by behenic and lignoceric acids, and PC4 by palmitic acid. The score plots generated between PC1-PC2 and PC3-PC4 segregated soybean cultivars based on fatty acid composition.

We isolated nine endophytic fungi from the roots of salt-stressed soybean cultivar Daewonkong and screened them for growth-promoting secondary metabolites. Of all fungal isolates, P-4-3 induced maximum growth promotion of waito-c rice and soybean. Analysis of the culture filtrate of P-4-3 showed the presence of physiologically active gibberellins $GA_1$, $GA_3$, $GA_4$, and $GA_7$, along with physiologically inactive $GA_{15}$ and $GA_{24}$. The plant growth promotion and gibberellin-producing capacity of P-4-3 was much higher than wild-type Gibberella fujikuroi, which was taken as the control during the present study. The fungal isolate P-4-3 was identified as a new strain of Scolecobasidium tshawytschae through the morphological characteristics and phylogenetic analysis of 18S rDNA sequence. Gibberellins production and plant growth promoting ability of genus Scolecobasidium was reported for the first time in the present study.

590 strains of Rhizobia were isolated from root nodules of the legumes collected at 223 sites in Korea. According to their host specificities they were classified into R. japonicum(218 strains), R. phaseoli(101 strains), R. trifolii(97 strains), R. meliloti(4 strains), R. leguminosarium(1 strain), Rhizobium species(101 strains), and unidentified species(159 strains). 3 potent strains R-138, R-168, and R-214 of R. japonicum have been selected based on the infectivity to soybean cultivar and effeciency of nitrogen fixation. It was observed that the fast-growing strains of R. japonicum contained 1 to 4 plasmids of M.W. of 35-300 Md. However, plasmids were hardly detected for the slow-growing strains.

Nowadays water shortage is becoming one of the biggest problems in the Korea. Many different methods are developed for conservation of water. Soil water management has become the most indispensable factor for augmenting the crop productivity especially on soybean (Glycine max L.) because of their high susceptibility to both water stress and water logging at various growth stages. The farmers have been using irrigation techniques through manual control which farmers irrigate lands at regular intervals. Automatic irrigation systems are convenient, especially for those who need to travel. If automatic irrigation systems are installed and programmed properly, they can even save you money and help in water conservation. Automatic irrigation systems can be programmed to provide automatic irrigation to the plants which helps in saving money and water and to discharge more precise amounts of water in a targeted area, which promotes water conservation. The objective of this study was to determine the possible effect of automatic irrigation systems based on soil moisture on soybean growth. This experiment was conducted on an upland field with sandy loam soils in Department of Southern Area Crop, NICS, RDA. The study had three different irrigation methods; sprinkle irrigation (SI), surface drip irrigation (SDI) and fountain irrigation (FI). SI was installed at spacing of $7{\times}7m$ and $1.8m^3/hr$ as square for per irrigation plot, a lateral pipe of SDI was laid down to 1.2 m row spacing with $2.3L\;h^{-1}$ discharge rate, the distance between laterals was 20 cm spacing between drippers and FI was laid down in 3m interval as square for per irrigation plot. Soybean (Daewon) cultivar was sown in the June $20^{th}$, 2016, planted in 2 rows of apart in 1.2 m wide rows and distance between hills was 20 cm. All agronomic practices were done as the recommended cultivation. This automatic irrigation system had valves to turn irrigation on/off easily by automated controller, solenoids and moisture sensor which were set the reference level as available soil moisture levels of 30% at 10cm depth. The efficiency of applied irrigation was obtained by dividing the total water stored in the effective root zone to the applied irrigation water. Results showed that seasonal applied irrigation water amounts were $60.4ton\;10a^{-1}$ (SI), $47.3ton\;10a^{-1}$ (SDI) and $92.6 ton\;10a^{-1}$ (FI), respectively. The most significant advantage of SDI system was that water was supplied near the root zone of plants drip by drip. This system saved a large quantity of water by 27.5% and 95.6% compared to SI, FI system. The average soybean yield was significantly affected by different irrigation methods. The soybean yield by different irrigation methods were $309.7kg\;10a^{-1}$ from SDI $282.2kg\;10a^{-1}$ from SI, $289.4kg\;10a^{-1}$ from FI, and $206.3kg\;10a^{-1}$ from control, respectively. SDI resulted in increase of soybean yield by 50.1%, 7.0% 9.8% compared to non-irrigation (control), FI and SI, respectively. Therefore, the automatic irrigation system supplied water only when the soil moisture in the soil went below the reference. Due to the direct transfer of water to the roots water conservation took place and also helped to maintain the moisture to soil ratio at the root zone constant. Thus the system is efficient and compatible to changing environment. The automatic irrigation system provides with several benefits and can operate with less manpower. In conclusion, improving automatic irrigation system can contribute greatly to reducing production costs of crops and making the industry more competitive and sustainable.
