'Superjami', a new blackish purple pigmented rice cultivar was derived from a cross between 'CG2-3-5-1-6-1' (developed from a cross between 'Heugjinjubyeo' and 'Suweon 425') as high amount of C3G (Cyanidin 3-glucoside) and 'Daeribbyeo 1' with large seed size in 2003, and selected by pedigree breeding method until $F_7$ generation. As a result, a promising line, 'SR28721-7-9-3-1-2-1', was developed and designated as the name of 'KNOU 5' in 2008. This variety has about 125 days to heading after sowing and has 74.9 cm culm height. The ratio of fertility of 'Superjami' was about 89.6% and 1,000-grain weight was about 26.2 g. It was 1.5 times heavier than 'Heugjinjubyeo'. 'Superjami' has 10 times higher C3G content compared with 'Heugjinjubyeo'. The yield potential of 'Superjami' in brown rice was about 6.3 MT/ha at ordinary fertilizer level in local adaptability test.

Pigmented rice bran has been suggested to be a valuable source of beneficial phytochemicals. We investigated genotoxic and anti-genotoxic effects of purple rice bran extract (PRBE) in rats using a liver micronucleus assay. Purple rice bran was extracted with methanol, obtaining large amounts of phenolic compounds, including anthocyanins and small amounts of gamma-oryzanol. The experimental protocols were divided into two sets. Male rats were divided into three groups. Group 1 was a negative control, while Groups 2 and 3 were fed with 100 and 500 mg/kg bw of PRBE, respectively, for 28 days. PRBE had no effect on micronucleus formation or xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes in rat liver. Experiments concerning the effect of PRBE on $AFB_1$ showed that PRBE significantly lessened the amount of micronucleated hepatocytes in $AFB_1$ treated rats. Furthermore, it modulated metabolic activation of $AFB_1$ metabolism in the liver by suppressing activity and protein expression of CYP1A2, CYP3A and CYP 450 reductase, and enhancing phase II enzymes including GST and UGT. Overall, purple rice bran extract was not genotoxic in rats. It exhibited anti-genotoxicity by modulation some xenobiotic enzymes active in $AFB_1$ metabolism.

The major color component of a Korean pigmented rice (Oeyza sativa var. Suwon 415) was purified with Amberlite XAD-7 column and preparative paper chromatography. The purified pigment was determined as anthocyanin by paper chromatography, UV/Vis and NMR spectroscopy. The $\lambda_{max}$ of the Purified anthocyanin on UV/Vis spectrum were 529 nm and 281 nm. The $A_{440}/A_{529}$ value of the purified anthocyanin was 23% suggesting the presence of 3-glycosidic structure. The aglycone from acid hydrolysis showed bathochromic shift (18 nm) in the presence of $AlCl_3$ indicating that the anthocyanidin contained free adjacent hydroxyl groups such as cyanidin, delphinidin, petunidin or luteolinidin. The sugar moiety obtained from acid hydrolysis was determined as glucose by paper chromatography. The NMR spectra showed that the aglycone was cyanidin and the sugar was ${\beta}-D-glucopyranose$. Thus, the chemical structure of the purified anthocyanin was identified as cyanidin $3-O-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$.

Thermal stability of the major color component, cyanidin 3-glucoside, isolated from Korean pigmented rice (Oryza sativa var. Suwon 415) were investigated to explore possible application of value-added natural colors as food additives. The anthocyanin showed red and blue color with maximum absorption peaks at 511 nm and 572 nm in acidic (pH 2.0) and alkaline (pH 9.0) buffer solutions, respectively, and the thermal degradation reactions were carried out with different temperature ranges at $50{\sim}95^{\circ}C$. Degree of degradation was determined with UV/Vis spectra which indicate characteristic absorption patterns with sharp isosbestic points at 350 nm (pH 2.0), and 275, 310, and 405 nm (pH 9.0). Thus the reaction follows simple first-order kinetics. The anthocyanin was very stable against heat at acidic pH and relatively stable at alkaline pH with half-life values of 50.3 hr and 0.6 hr at $70^{\circ}C$, respectively. The activation energies and Arrhenius frequency factors of the pigment were 26.9 kcal $mol^{-1}\;and\;6.0{\times}10^{11}\;s^{-1}$, at pH 2.0, and 15.2 kcal $mol^{-1}\;and\;1.4{\times}10^{6}\;s^{-1}$, pH 9.0, and respectively.

The total methylotrophic population associated with rice plants from different cultivars was enumerated at three different stages: vegetative, flowering, and harvesting. The bacterial population in the leaf, rhizosphere soil, endophytic in the stem and roots, and epiphytic in the florets and grains were determined from four rice cultivars, Il-mi, Nam-pyeoung, O-dae, and Dong-jin, sampled from three different field sites. The methylotrophic bacteria isolated on AMS media containing 0.5% methanol as the sole carbon source uniformly showed three distinct morphologies, which were recorded as separate groups and their distribution among the various samples was determined using the ecophysiological index. The growth stage at the time of sampling had a more significant effect on the methylotrophic population and their distribution than the field site or cultivar. A similar effect was also observed for the PPFMs, where their population in different plant parts increased from V10 to R4 and then decreased towards stage R9. A canonical discriminant analysis of the PPFM population from different parts of rice showed clear variations among the cultivars, sampled sites, and growth stages, although the variations were more prominent among the growth stages.

Tannic acid (TA), chlorogenic acid (GA) and caffeic acid (CA) as copigments were added in anthocyanin solutions (pH 3.0) to test their effects on the stability against temperatures, metal ions, and light. Absorbance of anthocyanins increased with the increase of copigment concentrations. Tannic acid showed the highest absorbance increase with bathochromic shift of 14 nm (from 514 nm to 528 nm). Copigmentation resulted in higher storage stability of anthocyanins for 21 days at room temperature $925^{\circ}C)$ but lower thermal stability at higher temperatures more than $70^{\circ}C. Addition of metal ions to TA caused the enhanced stability as well as increased absorbance of anthocyanins. Copigmentation also caused a significant increase of light stablilty of anthocyanins at room temperature, so that addition of TA showed 2.3 times showed photodegradation of anthocyanins under 20,000 lux-light dosage in pH 3.0 solution at $25^{\circ}C$.

This study investigated chemical components, antioxidant compounds, and activity of brown rice cultivars, to select good cultivar to be used for processing of mixed-rice in the food industry. Proximate compositions, phytic acid, phenolic compounds, and antioxidant activity of brown rice were significantly different among cultivars. Moisture, crude ash, fat, protein, and carbohydrate contents of brown rice were 9.51~12.82, 1.05~1.93, 1.84~6.24, 5.90~9.60 and 71.75~80.34 g/100 g, respectively. Phytic acid content of brown rice cultivars was 7.39~0.87 mg/g. Total polyphenol content of Joeunheukmi and Geonganghongmi cultivars, were 615.25 and $311.14{\mu}g\;GAE/g$, total flavonoid content was 267.75 and $100.67{\mu}g\;CE/g$, respectively. DPPH radical scavenging activity of Geonganghongmi, Joeunheukmi and Hyeugkwang cultivars was 89.17, 87.94 and 43.17%, ABTS radical scavenging activity was 113.57, 113.34, and $93.53{\mu}mol\;TE/g$, and ferric reducing antioxidant potential was 951.67, 1,075.75, and $508.33{\mu}M/g$, respectively. As a result, phenolic compounds and antioxidant activities of pigmented brown rice were high, and it could be used as a functional material.
