With various Korean domestic soybeans, growth and yields analysis were conducted to select the suitable soybean cultivars for cultivation in paddy field. Distinctive aspects of the soybean growth were observed in paddy field such as retarded growth of top plants and roots, relatively higher T/R ratio followed by overgrowth of top plant. However, growth and yields were significantly different among the cultivars showing 134kg/10a in Paldokong and 385 kg/10a in Doremikong. At V5. and R2 stage, highly positive correlations $(r=0.76^{**}\~0.91^{**})$ were observed between leaf area and dry weight of top plant and/or root. T/R ratio was negatively correlated with dry weight of root $(r=-0.37^*)$ at V5 stage, while significantly correlated with leaf area $(r=-0.37^{**})$ and dry weight of top plant $(r=0.65^{**})$at R2 stage. Among the characters, only 100-seed weight was significantly correlated with yield. Considering the growth characters, 37 cultivars could be included in 3 different groups and genotypic properties such as maturity and growth habit were similar in each group. Nine cultivars in group 1 showed retarded growth from V5 to R2 stage, relatively lower T/R ratio, and good seed ripening. Average yields of the cultivers was 257kg/10a. In group 2, 12 cultivars showed higher T/R ratio due to overgrowth of top plant and lowest average yields (230 kg/l0a) due to poor seed ripening. Sixteen cultivars in group 3 grew fast from V5 to R2 stage representing late maturity traits, low T/R ratio, and good seed ripening. Average yields of the cultivars was highest among groups showing 270kg/l0a. In results, stable self-sufficiency of soybean yields could be expected by selective cultivation with high yielding cultivars ranging from 301 to 385kg/10a, such as Shinpaldalkong 2, Sohokong, Doremikong, Keumkangkong, Bukangkong, Dajangkong, and Geomjeongkong 2, or with cultivars included in group 3.

A high dietary oxalate intake may lead to calcium oxalate (CaOx) kidney stones in the gastrointestinal tract. Most soy foods contain high concentrations of oxalate and/or phytate. This study analyzed the changes in oxalate (Ox), phytate ($InsP_6$), and calcium (Ca) during soymilk processing from the seeds of Korean recommended soybean cultivars (cvs). The contents of Ox, $InsP_6$, and Ca in 21 cvs ranged from 14, 108, and 148 to 231, 279, and 246 mg/100 g of dry seed, respectively. Seven cultivars were selected from the 21 cvs by the distributions of Ox, $InsP_6$, and Ca. Then, each contents of soymilk prepared from the 7 cvs were determined. All contents were lower in soymilk than in seeds, but the Ox to $InsP_6$ ratios changed from varying ratios (0.1-0.8) to normal ratios (0.8-1.0) in all cvs except 'Paldalkong'. Consequently, during soymilk processing, the Ox content was decreased and the $InsP_6$ content was remained higher than the Ox content although the Ox was likely to be less reductive than the $InsP_6$. These results may provide better information for minimizing the risk of formation of Ox kidney stones due to consumption of soy products.

This study was performed to evaluate the growth and nodulation characters of hypernodulating soy-bean mutant, SS2-2, and to know the growth and yield performance of the mutant in infertile soil. Soil fertility was adjusted by mixing the different ratios of soil components including clay, river sand, and horticultural bed, which resulted in fertile and infertile soil. Dry weight, nitrogen concentration, and leaf nitrate reductase of each plant were measured around V6 stage (47 days after planting) and around R3 stage (82 days after planting). There were significant effects of soil fertility and soybean genotype on the total dry weights including root, nodule, stem, leaf, and pod dry weight at V6 and R3 stages. Total dry weight of hypernodulating mutant, SS2-2, was clearly less than that of its wild type, Sinpaldalkong 2. However, nodule development on the roots of SS2-2 was much greater than that of Sinpaldalkong 2, regardless of soil fertility. Though SS2-2 was smaller in plant size than Sinpaldalkong 2, genotypic difference in total nitrogen content was not significant at both V6 and R3 stages because SS2-2 fixed more nitrogen biologically than its wild type in the root nodule. The SS2-2 mutant showed lower plant yield in both infertile and fertile soil. The SS2-2 contained more crude seed protein than Sinpaldalkong 2, and was characterized with reduced top and root growth.

The purpose of this study was to determine how seeding time changes the properties of soybean products meju and doenjang. Soybeans were seeded on the last day of May (5L), on the mid day of June (6M), and on the last day of June (6L), respectively. The 5L soybeans experienced a distinguishing hot and humid climate at the ripening stage, and these climate conditions resulted in smaller seed sizes. Fermentation briskly progressed in all doenjang until 120 days, and the 5L doenjang exhibited the lowest fermentation efficiency. The 5L soybeans showed the highest GABA, polyphenol contents, and ACE inhibitory activity, and the 6M soybeans showed the highest radical scavenging activity among the groups tested. In doenjang, the functional properties generally increased as the aging time approached the $120^{th}$ day, and the 6M doenjang showed the highest functional properties at the $120^{th}$ day. Therefore, 6M soybeans had the most appropriate characteristics when producing doenjang.

The purpose of this study was to contribute to merchandising of native local foods. This study was designed to standardize the recipes and to analyze the nutrients of native local foods in Gijang region such as 'Myeolchijjigae', 'Galchijjigae' and 'Maejipjjim'. The test recipe for each food was prepared according to the information obtained from the personal interview of Gijang natives and then supplied for the sensory evaluation. After that, CAN Pro 2.0 was used for the nutritional evaluation. The results are as follows : Myeolchijjigae was preferred when radishes and traditional soybean paste were added. Galchijjigae was more liked when young pumpkins, mixed soy sauce and soybean paste were added. Maejipjjim was preferred with Aeji(Codium adhaerens), Warty sea squirt(Styela clava), soybean paste and powdered perilla seed(Perilla frutescens var. japonica) added. The analysis of nutrient composition revealed that in general energy content was low whereas protein content was as high as recommended requirement in Myeolchijjigae and Maejipjjim. Calcium and phosphorus were high in Myeol-chijjigae, vitamin A in Galchijjigae, and vitamin A, B_6$, folic acid, phosphorus and iron in Maejipjjim.

Bacillus strains capable of producing fibrinolytic enzyme were isolated from traditional fermented Korean soybean paste and Japanese fermented soybean (Natto). Among the 16 strains, a selected Bacillus sp. was identified as bacillus firmus, with 80.7％ homology, by API kit analysis. Seed starter or B. firmus NA-1 was prepared with 5％ soymilk prepared from micronized soybean powder. To produce fibrinolytic enzyme by B. firmus NA-1 the liquid culture was performed with NB broth (pH 7.0) fortified with 1％ galactose, 0.1% tryptone, and 0.5% $K_2$HPO$_4$, by shaking with 180 rpm at 37$^{\circ}C$. Fibrinolytic enzyme activity reached the highest value at 7.8 unit/mL (plasmin unit) after fermentation for 72 hr. The crude fibrinolytic enzyme showed higher relative activity in the range of pH 7.0∼9.0. The activity of crude fibrinolytic enzyme was well maintained even after concentration by the vacuum evaporation at 5$0^{\circ}C$ for 1 hr.

The identification of quantitative trait loci (QTL) has the potential to enhance the efficiency of im- proving food processing traits of soybean. In this study, 92 restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) loci and two morphological markers (W$_1$ and T) were used to identify QTL associated with food processing traits of soybean for sprout in 83 F$_2$-derived lines from a cross of ＇Pureun＇ x ＇Jinpum 2＇. The genetic map consisted of 76 loci which covered about 760 cM and converged into 20 linkage groups. Eighteen markers remained unlinked. Phenotypic data were collected for hypocotyl length, abnormal seedling rate, and sprout yield seven days after seed germination at 2$0^{\circ}C$. Based on the single-factor analysis of variance, eight independent markers were associated with hypocotyl length. Four of seven markers associated with abnormal seedling rate were identified as independent. Seven loci were associated with sprout yield. For three different traits, much of genetic variation was explained by the identified QTL in this population. Several RFLP markers in linkage group (LG) Bl were detected as being associated with three traits, providing a genetic explanation for the biological correlation of sprout yield with hypocotyl length (r=OA07＊＊＊) and with abnormal seedling rate (r=-406＊＊＊).

Glycinin is the major storage protein in soybean. It has been known that a molecule of glycinin is composed of 6 subunits, each of which consists of two different kinds of polypeptides, acidic (A) and basic (B) one (NW 39K and 19K, respectively). To study the molecular origin and the relationship of glycinin subunit polypeptides, antibodies against A-and B-polypeptide were obtained by immunizing rabbits with either of the antigens purified by gel filtration and preparative electrophoresis. Each antibody was not only specific for its own antigen polypeptide in soybeans but also recoginzed the precursor which was synthesized in vivo and in vitro. The polyadenylated mRNAs were isolated from immature seeds and leaves and were translated in vitro using wheat germ extract. One of the seed-specific translation products. MW 60K, was identified to be the precursor of glycinin subunit by immunoprecipitation with antibodies against glycinin A- and B-polypeptide. Mature A- and B-polypeptides were not detected in the translte in vitro. These results suggest that the precursor polypeptide is synthesized from the mRNA and is cleaved to yield A- and B-polypeptides which from a glycinin subunit in the cell. Glycinin genes were expressed with the maturation of soybean seeds in a tissue-specific and developmental stage-specific manner.

The levels of 12 isoflavones were measured in soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merrill) sprouts of 68 genetic varieties from three countries (China, Japan, and Korea). The isoflavone profile differences were analyzed using data mining methods. A principal component analysis (PCA) revealed that the CSRV021 variety was separated from the others by the first two principal components. This variety appears to be most suited for functional food production due to its high isoflavone levels. Partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) and orthogonal projections to latent structures discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) showed that there are meaningful isoflavone compositional differences in samples that have different countries of origin. Hierarchical clustering analysis (HCA) of these phytochemicals resulted in clusters derived from closely related biochemical pathways. These results indicate the usefulness of metabolite profiling combined with chemometrics as a tool for assessing the quality of foods and identifying metabolic links in biological systems.
