A new silkworm variety "WhangBoJam" for spring rearing season is F1 hybrid between Jam317, a japanese strain bred from introduction breeding and Jam318, a chinese strain from introduction breeding. In the local adaptability test performed at 8 local areas in spring of 2012, the hatchability rate of WhangBoJam was recorded 95% similar to Kum HwangJam. The larval period was 8hours more long than KumHwangJam. The pupation percentage was recorded 6.6% higher than KumHwangJam. Single cocoon weight was recorded 2.29 g similar to KumHwangJam and cocoon yield(21.3 kg) was higher than KumHwangJam. The concentration of DNJ was measured to 0.22% in WhangBoJam, lower than DaePoongJam(0.26%). In the Paecilomyces tenuipes production ability test, the pupal weight of Whang BoJam was 1.33 g/individual, higher than KumHwangJam (1.19 g/individual).

A new silkworm variety "DaeBakJam" for spring rearing season is F1 hybrid between Jam155, a japanese race bred from introduction breeding and Jam156, a chinese race from introduction breeding. In the local adaptability test performed at 8 local areas in spring of 2010, the hatchability rate of DaeBakJam was recorded 96% similar to DaePoongJam. The larval period was 3 hour shorter than DaePoongJam. The pupation percentage was recorded 0.2% higher than DaePoongJam. Single cocoon weight (2.72 g) and Cocoon yield (25.4 kg) was higher than DaePoongJam. The concentration of DNJ was measured 3.28 mg in DaePoongJam, lower than DaePoongJam (3.48 mg). Test of the artificial diet of DaeBakJam showed bad adaptability of the artificial diet for larval period from 1st to 3rd, but KumOkJam showed excellent adaptability of the artificial diet. In the Paecilomyces tenuipes production ability test, the pupal weight of DaeBakJam was 1.69 g/individual, higher than DaePoongJam (1.59 g/individual).

A new silkworm variety SooOkJam for spring rearing season is F1 hybrid between Jam157, a japanese race bred from introduction breeding and Jam158, a chinese race from introduction breeding. In the local adaptability test performed at 8 local areas in spring of 2011, the hatchability rate of SooOkJam was recorded 2% higher than the authorized silkworm variety, DaePoongJam. The larval period was recorded 12 hour shorter than DaePoongJam. The pupation percentage was recorded 0.8% higher than DaePoongJam. Single cocoon weight (2.40 g), Cocoon yield (22.6 kg) and best cocoon rate (95.5%) was similar to DaePoongJam. The concentration of DNJ was measured 4.12 mg in SooOkJam, lower than DaePoongJam (4.45 mg). Test of the artificial diet of SooOkJam showed excellent adaptability of the artificial diet for larval period from 1st to 3rd, similar to KumOkJam. In the Paecilomyces tenuipes production ability test, the pupal weight of SooOkJam was 1.61 g/individual, similar to DaePoongJam (1.65 g/individual).

A new silkworm variety Golden silk for spring rearing season is $F_1$ hybrid between Jam311, a Japanese race bred from introduction breeding and Jam312, a Chinese race from introduction breeding. In the local adaptability test performed at 8 local areas in spring of 2006, "Golden silk" was showed 7 percent higher in hatchability than authorized silk-worm races laval. "Golden silk" was receded higher 1.7 percent, 2.2 percent in pupation rate, best cocoon rate respectively than Chunsujam. The larval period shortened for 1.12 day even though low record to the several items including productivity than Chunsujam. "Golden silk" was showed 1,031 m, 2.97 denier in length of cocoon filament, weight of cocoon filament respectively. The concentration of Deoxynojirimycin(DNJ) was measured 4.34 mg in "Golden silk", high then to "Chunsujam"(3.81 mg). In the Paecilomyces tenuipes production ability test, the pupal weight of "Golden silk" was 1.20g.
