${\gamma}-Radiation$ at very low doses frequently has a stimulating or hormetic effect on the growth of organism. Effects of low dose ${\gamma}-ray$ irradiation on the root growth of soybean cultivars were investigated and hormetic effects by environmental conditions were compared with the occurrence of increased economic yield, seeds of cultivars were irradiated with the dose of $0.5{\sim}20Gy$ and cultivated in growth chamber controling temperature, humidity, light, greenhouse and field respectively. To understand hormetic effect on root growth of cultivars and the difference of hormetic effect by cultivation environment, harvested root of soybean cultivars were scanned with image file, and root surface area, root length, root average diameter etc. were examined by WinRhizo program. Also, dry weight of cultivars was examined. Root growth and dry weight of soybean cultivars showed apparently hormetic effect at cultivation of growth chamber condition. In field experiment executed for whole life cycle, yields of pea were not different significantly in each ${\gamma}-ray$ irradiated cultivars but weight of one hundred peas increased in whole ${\gamma}-ray$ irradiated cultivars. Increment of yield was assumed to be induced through shortening of maturing stage caused by ${\gamma}-ray$ hormesis in early growth stage.

In order to select the suitable soybean cultivars for paddly field cultivation, growth response and yields characters were investigated with 37 Korean domestic soybean cultivars, in Yeoncheon, Gyeonggi province. The results can be summarized as follows ; When the soybeans were cultivated in paddy field, significant differences were observed in growth responses at each growth stage and yields among the cultivars. Yields of six cultivars, such as Danbaekkong, Paldokong, Pungsannanulkong, Myeongjunamulkong, Saeolkong, and Namhaekong, were less than 200kg/10a, however, seven cultivars, such as Shinpaldalkong 2, Sohokong, Dormikong, keumkangkong, Bukangkong, Dajangkong, and Geomjeongkong 2, showed highest yields ranged from 301~385kg/10a. At V5 stage, highly positive correlation(r=091$^{{\ast}{\ast}}$) was observed between the top dry weight and leaf area while negative correlation was existed between T/R ratio and root dry weight. However, at R2 age, leaf area was correlated with both top and root dry weight while T/R ratio was correlated with leaf area and top dry weight. Thirty-seven soybean cultivars used in this experiments were classified into 3 different clusters based on 19 important agronomic characters, and genotypic properties of the cultivars were similar in each cluster. In results, high yields could be achieved by selected cultivation of suitable soybean cultivars such as Shinpaldalkong 2 which showed early maturation date and highly ripening ratio.

Worldwide, cyst nematode(Heterodera glycines Ichinohe) is the most destructive pathogen of cultivated soybean. In the USA, current annual yield losses are estimated to be nearly a billion dollars. Crop losses are primarily reduced by the use of resistant cultivars. Nematode populations are variable and have adapted to reproduce on resistant cultivars over time because resistance primarily traces to two soybean accessions. It is important to use diverse resistance sources to develop new nematode resistant cultivars. Soybean PI 494182 is a recent introduction from Japan and found to be resistant to multiple nematode populations. It is yellow seeded and maturity group 0. We have determined inheritance of resistance in PI 494182 using $F_{2:3}$ families derived from cross PI 494182 X cv. Skylla. Skylla is a susceptible parent. Three nematode populations, races 1, 3, and 5, corresponding to HG types 2.5.7, 0, and 2.5.7 were used to bioassay 162 $F_{2:3}$ families in greenhouse experiments. Based on Chi-square tests, a two-gene model is proposed for resistance to race 1 and a three-gene model is proposed for conditioning resistance to both races 3 and 5. Correlation coefficient analysis indicated that some genes conditioning resistance to races 1, 3, and 5 are shared or closely linked with each other. These results will be useful to soybean breeders for developing soybean cultivars for broad resistance to nematodes.

This study was conducted with two objectives ; one was to select the suitable soybean cultivars for cultivation in paddy field and the other was to establish the environment-friendly rotational cropping system of soybean instead of rice in paddy field. In order to evaluate growth adaptation and yields, Eve soybean cultivars were cultivated in Yeoncheon, Keonggi province, with two cultivation methods such as level row and high ridge. Growth of the top plants, such as stem length, number of branches, diameter of stem, were higher in high ridge than in level row, however, the differences among the cultivars were bigger than those between the cultivation methods. Dry weight of top plant was significantly different among the cultivars during whole growth stages, however, it was higher in level row than in high ridge at V5 stage while it became higher in high ridge as growth progressed. Roots were more developed in high ridge than in level row during whole growth stages. T/R ratio in level row was higher than that in high ridge. During whole growth stages, significant differences were observed among the cultivars in growth and yields in each cultivation method and yields of Eunhakong was the highest. In results, number of nodules and T/R ratio at V5 stage, number of pods at R2 stage, and number of seeds and T/R ratio at R5 stage had highly correlated with yields, respectively.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa EMS1, isolated from activated sludge, was able to grow an produce a biosurfactant on 4.5 % soybean oil, used as the source of energy and carbon. Pseudomonas aeruginosa EMS1 was cultivated at 3$0^{\circ}C$ in a reciprocal shaking incubator, and the highest biosurfactant production was observed after 3 days. Furthermore, Pseudomonas aeruginosa EMS1 was also able to use whey as a co-substrate for biosurfactant production and growth

The focus of this study were to investigate patterns between wall pressures and stresses with grain moisture of soybean and rice varieties widespread cultivated in Turkey in order to determine needed designing parameters for structure analysis in silos at filling and discharge. In this study, the wall pressures and stresses were evaluated as a function of moisture contents in the range of 8-14% and 10-14% d.b. The pressures and von Mises stresses affected as significant by the change of grain moisture content. The main cause of pressure and stress drops is changed in bulk density. Therefore is extremely important bulk density and moisture content of the product at the structural design of the silos. 4 mm wall thickness, were determined to be safe for von Mises stresses in both soybean and rice silos is smaller than 188000 kPa.

A thermophilic bacteria showing proteolytic activity against defatted soybean was isolated from soil. It was identified as Bacillus amyloliquefaciens based on its morphological and physiological characteristics. The Bacillus amyloliquefaciens NS 15-4 was cultivated at 50$\circ$C by rotary shaking in a medium containing defatted soybean. An extracellular protease from this strain was purified to homogeneity by ammonium sulfate precipitation, ion exchange, and hydrophobic interaction chromatographies. The molecular weight of the enzyme was estimated to be approximately 30,000 by SDS-PAGE and the N-terminal amino acid sequence of the enzyme was turned out to be AQSVPYGISQIKAPA. The optimum temperature and pH for the enzyme reaction were 60$\circ$C and 11, respectively, and its thermostability was increased by the addition of calcium ion. The enzyme was inactivated by phenylmethylsulfonylfluoride, suggesting it be a serine protease. Comparing with other commercial proteases, the enzyme showed relatively high proteolytic activity against defatted soybean, a water-insoluble protein substrate.

To deter-mine the most reasonable method for improving of newly reclaimed soil, seven kinds of improving methods were tested and the soybean was cultivated as test crop. The results obtained are summarized as follow: The newly reclaimed soil where this experiment was carried out showed low acidity and was deficient in the humus, the phosphate, the calcium and the magnesium. Both the fused phosphate as well as the calcium was much effective to the correction of the soil acidity. The compost was the most effective source to increase the content of the humus in the soil, and also the calcium application showed a significant effect to increase the amount of humus. Not only compost but also fused phosphate were much effective to increase the content of calcium in the soil. Each factor as the calcium, the fused phosphate, the compost and the deep plowing has an effect to increase the amount of magnesium in soil significantly. The compost increased the potassium in soil. The amount of magnesium in soybean plant was significantly increased by the application of the calcium, the fused phosphate or the compost. And the calcium and the fused phosphate had an effect to increase the grain yield of soybean. The highest grain yield of soybean was taken at the treatment of N.P.K.+Compost+Calcium+Deep-plowing. The grain yield of soybean was significantly correlated with the soil acidity, the amount of the humus and the magnesium in soil and the amount of the magnesium in soybean plant.

The effect of heat-shock treatment of soybean on the quality characteristics of soybean sprouts was investigated. Six groups of soybeans were heat-treated in 35, 40, 45$^{\circ}C$ for 60 and 120 min respectively and then cultivated by a standard method to measure growth parameters, rot ratio, color, vitamin C content and sensory characteristics. Soybean sprouts of 4$0^{\circ}C$/120 min treatment showed the higher weight, while 4$0^{\circ}C$/60 min sample showed thicker hypocotyl and longer cotyledon than the control. In both rot ratio and viable cell count, the lowest values were obtained in soybean sprouts of control and also in 4$0^{\circ}C$/60 min treated samples, while other heat-treated samples showed higher rot ratio and cell counts than the control. Heat treatment of soybean increased the lightness and decreased the yellowness of cotyledon of sprouts. Vitamin C contents of sprouts were increased by heat treatment. Sensory test showed that the heat treatment reduced benny odor and bitter taste but enhanced the nutty taste. Soybean sprouts of 4$0^{\circ}C$/60 min resulted in significantly higher scores in overall appearance and palatability than other samples.
