Lower field germination was observed in lipoxygenase- lacking soybean genotypes. This study was performed to understand seed-related traits after accelerated aging in response to planting date of soybeans. Two soybean cultivars, Jinpumkong (null lipoxygenase-2,3) and Jinpumkong 2 (lacking lipoxygenase-1, 2, 3) were evaluated for germination, and were compared with the cultivar, Taekwangkong containing lipoxygenase-1,2,3 isozymes. Greater seed coat cracking was shown in Jinpumkong and Jinpumkong 2 than Taekwangkong. Regardless of soybean genotypes, earlier planting resulted in greater seed coat cracking. After accelerated aging, seed fracturability and hardness of Jinpumkong and Jinpumkong 2 were lower than those of Taekwangkong. There was significant difference in germination percentage among soybean genotypes in response to planting date. Seeds obtained from late planting showed better germination ability. Accelerated aging resulted in lower germination percentages of Jinpumkong and Jinpumkong 2 than that of Taekwangkong, and showed higher electric conductivity in Jinpumkong and Jinpumkong 2 than Taekwangkong. After accelerated aging at 4$0^{\circ}C$ for thirty five days, germination percentages of Jinpumkong and Jinpumkong 2 were lower than that of Taekwangkong. Electric conductivity was increased continually as accelerated aging time became longer, and Jinpumkong and Jinpumkong 2 showed higher electric conductivity than Taekwangkong. Even though there were significant genotype differences in seed traits, further studies are needed to determine whether seed lipoxygenase ability is associated with germination ability.

Recently, Black soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.) is being cultivated in paddy fields instead of rice. However, research related to the effective sowing date is insufficient in paddy fields. This study aimed to identify the sowing date for stable cultivation of black soybean by investigating its yield and seed characteristics in a paddy field. In the study, cultivation experiment with five different sowing dates (May 25, June 10, June 25, July 10, July 25) were conducted in 2019 and 2020. Days from sowing to flowering can be shortened by delaying the sowing date. In the present study, the yield of black soybean in paddy fields was the highest with June 10 as the sowing date and was calculated as 224 kg·10a^-1 and 200 kg·10a^-1 in 2019 and 2020, respectively. However, the highest values of seed coat cracking was 51.1±5.1% and that of total anthocyanin contents was the 3.99±0.72 mg/g, both of which were observed in 2020 for the experiment with May 25 as the sowing date. Regression analysis showed a positive correlation (R²=0.9312) between soil water contents and seed coat cracking rate during the flowering period. Hence, the soil water contents during the flowering period would have a negative effect on the seed coat development.

These studies were conducted to clarify the effects of sowing date on seed quality characters in soybean-sprouts. Six sprout-soybean cultivars were planted on three sowing dates in 2000 and 2001. Percentages of purple spot seed stain, seed coat-cracking and immatured seeds were higher in the May 25 sowing than later sewings. Pungsannamulkong showed the lowest percentages of seed coat-cracking and immatured seeds, while Hannamkong showed the highest percentages. The protein contents decreased as the sowing dates were delayed. Tawonkong and Pungsannamulkong showed the highest protein content on May 21 and June 15 sewings, and on July 5 sowing, respectively. The oil contents was not affected by the sowing dates, however, Somyeongkong and Tawonkong showed the highest and the lowest oil contents, respectively. The aglycone contents of isoflavone were the highest in the lune 15 sowing followed by July S sowing and May 25 sowing in that order. Somyeongkong showed the highest contents of isoflavone and aglycone, while Tawonkong showed the lowest contents.

Growth and seed productivity of black soybean (cv. Cheongja-3ho) sown on four different dates were investigated in paddy fields in the southern region to cope with climate change, trends in consumption of soy foods, and the spread of double cropping region. Sowing date of black soybean showed a significant correlation with above-ground growth, seed yield, useful components, etc. When sown in May, the above-ground part was plentiful, while seed yield significantly decreased. On the other hand, when sown in June and July, reproductive growth was vigorous resulting in high seed yield, exceeding 200 kg/10a, and pod injury and seed coat cracking were reduced. Furtherm ore, the isoflavone content of seed increased significantly as the sowing date was delayed. These results suggests that sowing from early June to early July is appropriate. Nevertheless, late June sowing oppears the m ost appropriate for black soybeans in the southern paddy fields, in order to avoid a risk of overlapping with sowing dates of winter crops in the double cropping.
