The quality characteristics and antioxidant activity of three kinds of tofu made from lipoxygenase (LOX)-free genotypes soybeans were compared to the Taekwang (LOX-present) tofu as the control. The mineral contents of Jinyang tofu were significantly higher than those of the control. The hardness and gumminess of tofu made from LOX-free genotypes were significantly higher than those of the control. Gaechuck#2 tofu showed higher sensory evaluation results than the other kinds of tofu in terms of taste, flavor and overall acceptability. The total isoflavone contents were higher in the LOX-free genotypes than in the control. The total phenol content was similar for the Gaechuck#1, #2 and Taekwang tofu. The flavonoid content was higher in Gaechuck#1 and #2 tofu than in the control. The antioxidant activities were the highest in Gaechuck#1 tofu, followed by the Gaechuck#2. During the 15-day storage at $4^{\circ}C$, the turbidity of the immersing water tended to increase, but Gaechuck#1 and #2 tofu were significantly lower than in the control after 15-day storage. Therefore it is suggested that Gaechuck#2 tofu could be the suitable genotype for tofu products because it is the most effective in terms of overall acceptability, antioxidant activity, and storage stability.

The properties of non-GM soybeans with lipoxygenase (LOX) free genotypes, such as Gaechuck#1 (black, LOX2,3-free), Gaechuck#2 (yellow, LOX2,3-free) and Jinyangkong (yellow, LOX1,2,3-free), were compared to Taekwangkong (yellow, LOX1,2,3-present) as control. Length and weight of soybeans were significantly longer in Gaechuck#1, but LOX free genotypes of yellow beans was smaller than Taekwangkong, in terms the size and weight. After soaking for 12 hr, increased ratios of soybean weight were 217.07~226.55%, and they were significantly higher in Gaechuck#2. The total color difference (${\Delta}E$) to Taekwangkong was the highest in Gaechuck#1, but another yellow soybean were similar. Crude lipids content was significantly higher in Taekwangkong (17.30%), and these LOX free genotypes (13.71~14.66%) did not show significant difference. Crude protein contents were significantly higher in Gaechuck#1 (34.79%) compared to the other soybeans (32.93~33.47%). Contents of glutamic acid among the detected composition amino acid were highest, and its total contents were highest in Gaechuck#1 (32.42 g/100 g), and the total content of Gaechuck#2 was similar to Taekwangkong. Contents of total isoflavone were higher in LOX free genotypes than Taekwangkong, especially significantly higher in Gaechuck#1 (1672.54 ${\mu}g/g$). Contents of total phenol were highest in Gaechuck#1 (276.91 mg/100 g), and flavonoids content of Gaechuck#1 (26.93 mg/100 g) was 2.6~2.8 times higher than the other samples. DPPH, ABTS radical scavenging activities and reducing power were significantly higher in Gaechuck#1. The yield of soybean curd from tested samples was the highest in Gaechuck#2. Gaechuck#2 as LOX free genotypes was similar to Taekwangkong with regard to physicochemical properties and antioxidant activities. Therefore, we propose that Gaechuck#2 is a more suitable genotype for soybean curd products.

The black seed coat of soybeans contain anthocyanins which promote health. However, mature soybean seeds contain anti-nutritional factors like lipoxygenase, lectin and Kunitz Trypsin Inhibitor (KTI) proteins. Furthermore, these seeds can be used only after the genetic elimination of these proteins. Therefore, the objective of this study was to develop novel soybean genotypes with black seed coat and triple recessive alleles (lx1lx1lx2lx2lx3lx3, titilele) for lipoxygenase, lectin, and KTI proteins. From a cross of parent1 (lx1lx2lx3/lx1lx2lx3, ti/ti, Le/Le) and parent2 (lx1lx2lx3/lx1lx2lx3, Ti/Ti, le/le), 132 F₂ seeds were obtained. A 3:1 segregation ratio was observed during F₂ seed generation for the inheritance of lectin and KTI proteins. Between a cross of the Le and Ti genes, the observed independent inheritance ratio in the F₂ seed generation was 9: 3 : 3 : 1 (69 Le_Ti_: 32 leleTi_: 22 Le_titi: 9 leletiti) (χ²=2.87, P=0.5 - 0.1). From nine F₂ seeds with triple recessive alleles (lx1lx1lx2lx2lx3lx3, titilele genotype), one novel strain posessing black seed coat, and free of lipoxygenase, lectin and KTI proteins, was selected. The seed coat color of the new strain was black and the cotyledon color of the mature seed was green. The weight of 100 seeds belonging to the new strain was 35.4 g. This black soybean strain with lx1lx1lx2lx2lx3lx3, titilele genotype is a novel strain free of lipoxygenase, lectin, and KTI proteins.

To evaluate processing suitability of lipoxygenase (LOX)-free genotype soybeans (Jinyang, 05C4 and LS), quality characteristics and antioxidant activities of their Doenjang products were compared to those of Doenjang made from Taekwang soybean (LOX-present) as the control. Moisture and crude protein contents of Doenjang were significantly higher in LS than the control. Crude lipid content was not significantly different and was in the range of 7.92~8.22% in all samples. Carbohydrate content was significantly lower in LS than Taekwang. Content of reducing sugar in Doenjang was significantly higher in Jinyang than Taekwang. Contents of amino-type nitrogen were significantly higher in LOX-free cultivars than Taekwang. Colors of 05C4 and LS Doenjang were not different compared to that of Taekwang, whereas Jinyang Doenjang showed a noticeable color difference. Taekwang Doenjang had a slightly stronger savory taste than another sample. LOX-free cultivars had a strong salty taste. Flavor was the strongest in LS, whereas overall acceptability showed little difference among all samples. The total amino acid content was slightly higher in Jinyang and 05C4 than Taekwang, and content of essential amino acids was higher in Doenjang from LOX-free cultivars than Taekwang. Isoflavon content was significantly higher in Doenjang ($522.16{\sim}684.46{\mu}g/g$) made from LOX-free cultivars than in Taekwang ($374.79{\mu}g/g$). Total phenol content was significantly higher in 05C4 and LS, and flavonoid content was significantly higher in LS than Taekwang. Antioxidant activities were highest in Jinyang based on DPPH radical scavenging and reducing power. ABTS radical scavenging activity was significantly higher in Doenjang made from LOX-free cultivars than Taekwang. These results suggest that Doenjang from LOX-free cultivars could have a suitable genotype for Doenjang processing since it is more effective in terms of amino acids, isoflavone contents, and antioxidant activity.

A soybean cultivar with a green seed coat and cotyledon contains high levels of lutein, which is beneficial for eye health. Plus, antinutritional components such as lipoxygenase, Kunitz trypsin inhibitor (KTI), lectin and stachyose exist in the mature seed. The genetic elimination of these antinutritional factors is a necessary step in green soybean breeding. This research was conducted to improve a new green soybean line with the green cotyledon and tetra null genotype (lox1lox2lox3tilers2) in terms of lipoxygenase, KTI, lectin and stachyose. We used five germplasms to develop a breeding population. A total of 69 F₂ seeds were obtained from the cross of parent 1 and parent 2, and from those, 21 F₂ seeds were selected that had the green seed coat color, and which were free of lectin protein. Next, four F₂ plants with the green seed coat and tetra null genotype were selected from the breeding population derived from four genotypes. The absence of lipoxygenase, KTI and lectin proteins was confirmed in the F₅ strain. The breeding line has a green seed coat, green cotyledon and white hilum color. The 100-seed weight and stachyose content for the breeding line were 30.7 g and 2.40 g/kg, respectively. The line selected in this study could be used as a cultivar or parent to improve colored soybean cultivars through the removal of antinutritional components such as lip- oxygenase, KTI, lectin and stachyose.
