Starch gel electrophoresis was used to examine the banding pattern of Esterase isozyme in the leaf, root-nodule and seedling of four wild legume species, Trifolim repense, Glycine soja, Phaseolus nipponensis and Vigna uexillata. The number of band, enzyme activity and migrating rate of esterase isozyme varies depending on the species and tissues of legume plants. The isozyme banding pattern in the cotyledon and radicle of T. repense showed same pattern, however, the number of band were varible among the cotyledon of G. soja, P. nipponensis and V. vexzllata, respectively. Est-1 in the leaf of G. soja, V, vexillata. root-nodule of G. soja and seedling of V. vexillata expreesed the highest enzyme activity. The Est-1 showed the rapidest migrating rate among the isozymes.

Fossil legumes of Albizia miokalkora Hu et Chaney (Mimosoideae) were found in the Miocene Duho Formation of the Yeonil Group distributed along the coast of Yeonil Bay in the Pohang area. The legume is flat and long and has 5-7 rounded seeds. The legumes of Albizia miokalkora are rare in the Cenozoic floras of the world and only known to Middle Miocene of East Asia. The fossil Albizia may use one of the important taxa to construct the biogeographic history of East Asia. This discovery is the first record of Albizia from the Neogene strata of Korea.

Horizontal starch gel electrophoresis, follow by enzyrne-specific staining, separate and visualize several legume esterase isozyme. Using extracts prepared from cotyledon, radicle and plumule of legume seedlings germinated 5 days. The results were as follows. 1. The number and staining intensity of esterase isozyme bands varies depending on the plant species. tissues and developmental stage. 2. Bands in the cotyledon of field bean seedling expressed 4 and 1 in radicle. 3. In soybean cultivars, cotyledon of IIwangkum-kong had 3 bands and 1 band in the examined tissues of Paldal-kong and Jangkyung-kong seedling. 4. The cotyledon and radicle of french bean seedling had 3 bands, respectively. 5. The highest esterase isozyme activity appears to be expressed in the cotyledon and radicle of french bean, as indicated by intensity of stain, with the Paldal-kong particulary active.

Legume plants develop root nodules to recruit nitrogen-fixing bacteria called rhizobia. This symbiotic relationship allows the host plants to grow even under nitrogen limiting environment. Since nodule development is an energetically expensive process, the number of nodules should be tightly controlled by the host plants. For this purpose, legume plants utilize a long-distance signaling known as autoregulation of nodulation (AON). AON signaling in legumes has been extensively studied over decades but the underlying molecular mechanism had been largely unclear until recently. With the advent of the model legumes, L. japonicus and M. truncatula, we have been seeing a great progress including isolation of the AON-associated receptor kinase. Here, we summarize recent studies on AON and discuss an updated view of the long-distance control of nodulation.

Annual legume is being used as an important source of protein for farm animals and an ingredient for nitrogen fertilizers. There are, however, difficulties in selecting appropriate cultivar and forage management technique. The objective of this study is to select the best performing cultivars and evaluate a forage value on annual legume at two locations (Suwon and Sunghwan) for 1 year (1999${\sim}$2000). All cultivars shown a seedling vigor and lodging resistance of 8 rating or higher. Crimson and rose clover showed that they are appropriate for overwintering, but ;Laser; (35.9%) and 'Nitro'(9.1%) of persian clover variety did not overwinter well from 1999 to 2000. Flower stage was observed 4th of May for 'Tibbee', 6th of May for 'Contea' crimson clover, and 29th of April for 'Bolta balansa' rose clover. DM yield of a crimson clover 'Contea' (4,218kg/ha) was the highest among the legume forage. A crimson clover 'Tibbee' and rose clover 'Bolta balansa' also had a high production yield (3,874 and 3,828kg/ha). Calculations of relative feed value (RFV) based on the acid and neutral detergent fiber (ADF and NDF) of annual legume were over 125, which means that quality was high. According to the results of this study, crimson and rose clovers are recommended due to their high winter survival rate and high DM yield. Persian clover is not recommended because of a low overwintering rate at the Central region in Korea.

Physicochemical properties such as amylose content, swelling power, gelatinization and DSC of legume starches were investigated. The granule shape of legume starches was oval. The size of cowpea and mung bean were smaller than kidney bean and red bean. The amylose content of mung bean and kidney bean was larger and were $25{\sim}29%$. Swelling power of kidney bean starch was much lower than other starches in all temperature range. In gelatinization temperature by Brabender amylogram, red bean starch was low, but kidney bean starch was rather high. Amylographic hot-paste viscosity and set back of cow pea, mung bean and red bean starches were high. But those of kidney bean starch were very low. DSC results Indicated kidney bean starch gelatinized in higher temperature. From above results, row pea and mung bean starches were similar in granule size and shape, solubility and swelling power, amylogram, and DSC thermogram. But kidney bean starch was very different and red bean starch was slightly different with the physicochemical properties of cow pea and mung bean starches.

The aim of this study was to determine the nutritive value of some legume species in salt-affected soils of South-East Anatolian region using chemical composition and in vitro gas production kinetics. In this study, Lotus corniculatus, Trifolium alexandrinum, Medicago sativa were sown and tested in four different locations. A 3 by 4 factorial design with 3 legume species and 4 salt levels (non salty electrical conductivity (EC)<4 dS/m; low salt: 4 dS/m>EC<8 dS/m, medium saline: 8 dS/m>EC<16 dS/m and high salt: 16 dS/m>EC) was used in the study. Results indicated that salinity and plants had no significant effect on ash and ether extract. Dry matter (DM), acid detergent fiber, digestible dry matter, dry matter intake (DMI) were affected by plant, salinity and plant${\times}$salinity interaction. On the other hand neutral detergent fiber, relative feed value (RFV), and DMI were affected by salinity and plant${\times}$salinity interaction. Mineral contents were affected by plant species, salinity and salinity${\times}$plants interactions. In vitro gas production, their kinetics and estimated parameters such as were not affected by salinity whereas the gas production up to 48 h, organic matter digestibility, metabolizable energy (ME), and net energy lactation ($NE_L$) were affected by plant and plant${\times}$salt interaction. Generally RFVs of all species ranged from 120 to 210 and were quite satisfactory in salty conditions. Current results show that the feed value of Medicago sativa is higher compared to Lotus corniculatus and Trifolium alexandrinum.

Double cropping system including paddy field soybean is widely adopted nationwide, due to rise in market price and its higher income than paddy field rice. Sowing date of soybean as a second crop is being delayed depending on first crop's growth period and harvesting time. Due to the increased temperature in October and delayed first frost date, soybean could be harvested without frost damage even in late-plating. Therefore, selection of soybean cultivar which is appropriate for this environment is very important. The effect of sowing date and genotype of soybean on growth and yield was investigated for three planting dates (June 20, July 5, and July 20) with ten cultivars developed for soy-pate production, to figure out plant development and yield pattern in delayed planting. As planting date is delayed, plant height and pod number was decreased and this pattern was more clearly detected in mid-late maturity cultivars. Hundred-seed weight did not show significant changes even in late planting, due to compensations between yield components. Yield reduction of July 20 in contrast to that of June 20 showed that Nampung (9.6%) showed the least yield decline. Maximum yield was achieved from Daepung, Taekwang, and Uram among other soybean cultivars in late planting. Shortening of growth period was strongly detected in reproductive stage while length of vegetative stage was regularly maintained in both early and mid-late maturity cultivars.
