A new bright yellow gerbera (Gerbera hybrida Hort.), 'Sunmyo' was bred from a cross between red medium-gerbera 'Beauty' and yellow gerbera 'Tamara' in 2001. Characteristics trials were conducted three times from 2004 to 2006. Bred cultivar 'Sunmyo' showed bright yellow color (YG12B), black center, semi-double type, and middle size flower with stable flower shape. The average yield of 'Sunmyo' increased up to 37% (70.0 stems per year) as compared to control cultivar 'Biro' (51.0 stems per year). The vase life is 7.5 days. The survival rate is 85.0%, and days to first flowering are 95 in the plastic house passing the winter season.

A new spray carnation cultivar 'Leo' was released by the National Institute of Horticultural and Herbal Science in 2003. A cross was made between spray cultivar 'Ballantyne' and 'West peachy' in 1999. After investigation of the characteristics four years (from 2001 to 2003), it was finally selected in 2003. 'Leo' is a spray cultivar with light yellow color for a cut flower. The main characteristics are multi branching, long vase life and early flowering habit than 'Diamond'(control). It has medium resistance to Fusarium wilt and 9 days vase life.

The New bicolor spray rose (Rose hybrida Hort.) cultivar was developed by line selection in 2000 at the Flower Breeding Research Institute, Gyeongnam ARES. Characteristics were investigated three times from 2003 to 2006. 'Yellow King' was crossed between 'Spring Time' and 'Flair' and it has a Yellow Orange-group color (RHS No. 16A), few thorns and spray flower with a good harmony between ray floret and flower center. The vase life of cut flower was 9.1days. It was registered as commercial cultivar in 2006. This new cultivar could be planted in most of greenhouse production region of Korea and will be released to general rose growers in 2007.

A new spray chrysanthemum 'Pink Berry' was released by National Institute of Horticultural and Herbal Science (NIHHS), Rural Development Administration (RDA), Korea in 2007. A cross was made in 2004 between 'Lineker Salmon', a spray cultivar with salmon petals, and 'Baeksokuk', a spray cultivar with white petals. Trials were conducted from 2005 to 2007 for evaluation and selection of this cultivar, including shade cultivation in summer and retarding cultivation in autumn. The natural flowering time of 'Pink Berry' is late October, but year-round flowering is possible by photo-periodic control. The cultivar has single type flowers with pink petals and a green flower center. It shows long vase life of 22 days and resistance to white rust. The diameter of flower is 52.0 mm. The numbers of flowers per stem and petals per flower are 15.5 and 29.5, respectively. Days to flowering under the short day treatment is about 56 in autumn seasons.

This study was conducted to clarify the effects of daminozide (butanedioic acid mono-(2,2 - dimethylhydrazide)) sprayed 2 days be fore harvest and floral preservative solutions on longevity, quality and ethylene production of 'Georgia' cut lily for prolonging vase life and improving quality of cut lily flowers. And also the relation between ethylene production and flower senescence of cut lily was studied. 1. Lilies held in silver nitrate ($AgNO_3$) at 25 and 50 ppm were increased in solution uptake, fresh weight, and flower longevity. The solution of 2.5% sucrose+50 ppm $AgNO_3$+200 ppm aluminum sulfate+10 ppm 6-benzylamino purine prolonged vase life and improved quality of cut lily flowers. 2. Lilies sprayed with 500 ppm daminozide 2 days be fore harvest and then held in the preservative solution (5% sucrose+50 ppm $AgNO_3$+150ppm 8-hydroxyquinoline) after harvest were significantly increased in fresh weight and vase life as compared with non-sprayed (control) flowers. 3. Ethylene production from cut lily was increased by ethephon ((2-chloroethyl) phosphonic acid) treatment. The flowers producing a lot of ethylene, however, were senesced slowly instead of rapid wilting. 4. The preservative solution markedly reduced ethylene production of cut lily but prolonged vase life for only a few days. 5. These results suggest that ethylene be one of the most important factors promoting flower senescence of cut lily, but it be very difficult to prolong vase life remarkably by only inhibition of ethylene production in cut lily.

A new standard red color gerbera (Gerbera hybrida Hort.) 'Red Auction' was developed from a cross of '01-120-195' and 'Misty red' followed by seedling and line selections at the Flower Research Institute, Gyeongsangnam-do Agricultural Research & Extension Services (ARES) in 2008. Characteristics trials were conducted three times from 2006 to 2008. 'Red Auction' has semi-double type in good harmony with red color (RHS 45-A) ray floret and a good stable flower shape and strong peduncle. Its vase life was 11.3 days. The average yield of 'Red Auction' was 48.8 flowers per plant a year in greenhouse yield trials carried out from 2006 to 2008. This cultivar registered for commercialization in 2010.

A new bi-color mini gerbera (Gerbera hybrida Hort.) 'Sun Cap' was developed from a cross of '99-ga-2' and '99-na-3-1' followed by seedling and line selections at the Flower Research Institute, Gyeongnam Agricultural Research and Extension Services (ARES) in 2007. Characteristic tests were conducted three times from 2004 to 2007. 'Sun Cap' has single type in good harmony with bi-color (Red/Yellow, RHS 45-B/9-A) ray floret and green center. It has good stable flower shape and strong peduncle. Its vase life was 13.5 days. The average yield of 'Sun Cap' was 102.6 flowers per plant a year in greenhouse. Yield trials were carried out from 2004 to 2007. This cultivar was registered for commercialization in 2009. 'Sun Cap' would be cultured under greenhouse condition in Korea.
