‘Bodrami’ is a brown rice cultivar suitable for cooking, developed by crossing ‘Hwaseong’ and ‘Congsengla’ cultivars at Rural Development Administration, Korea, in 2003. Cooked brown rice of ‘Bodrami’ naturally has a soft texture, and after 24 hours of warm treatment, it maintained its soft texture and it was evaluated that the taste and texture of cooked brown rice were better than that of another rice cultivar. ‘Bodrami’ is a mid-maturing rice cultivar. The average heading date in ordinary planting was August 11th in Suwon, Korea, which also exhibits strong to blast leaf and rice stripe virus, and brown rice yield of ‘Bodrami’ had a yield of 5.56 MT/ha in ordinary planting. The advantages of eating brown rice are high intake of GABA (which is excellent for controlling blood),
‘Superhongmi’, a reddish brown rice cultivar, was derived from a cross between CG2-3-5-1-6-1 (Heugjinju/Suwon 425) producing blackish purple rice and ‘Daeribbyeo 1’ producing large white grains. A promising line, SR28721-7-5-2-1-2-1, was obtained using the pedigree breeding method from 2003 to 2015 and designated as ‘KNOU6R’. This variety headed on September 5, and its culm length is 94.7 cm. The panicle length of ‘Superhongmi’ is 19.8 cm. The number of panicles per hill and grain per panicle is 5.4 ea and 154.9 ea, respectively. The fertility ratio of ‘Superhongmi’ is approximately 91.0% and 1000-grain weight (TGW) is approximately 26.8 g, which is similar to that of ‘Superjami’; however, the number of panicles per hill is half of that of ‘Superjami’. The content of taxifolin and total polyphenol extracted from whole grains of ‘Superhongmi’ is 67.7 and 248 mg/100g seed weight, respectively (Registration No. 7365).
