‘Daname’ is a foxtail millet(Setaria italica Beauv.) variety developed and registered by Department of Southern Area Crop Science, NICS, RDA in 2014. This variety which collected from IT252182 was developed through pure line selection. ‘Daname’ is a early-maturing variety having 100 days of growth period from seeding to harvesting in Milyang of Korea. The culm length is about 97 cm which is 20cm shorter culm length than standard variety ‘Hwanggeumjo’, and it showed tolerant to lodging in field. The panicle shape is a cylindrical and the length is about 19cm. According to the grain, seed color and dehusked grain colors are orange and yellow and endosperm characteristic is non-glutinous. The yield performance of this variety was about 3.81 t ha^-1 in local adaptability test from 2013 to 2014 and it showed similar with standard variety ‘Hwanggeumjo’. As the addition amount of ‘Daname’ in rice increased from 0% to 30% and 100%, the antioxidant ability of ‘Daname’ added rice and hardness/stickiness balances were increased. But we could not find out the difference of hardness/stickiness balances between 0%and 10% addition. So, 10% addition amount was concluded to increase antioxidant ability regardless eating quality of cooked rice. (Variety registration No. 6243)

‘Samdachal’ is a foxtail millet variety developed and registered by Department of Functional Crop, NICS, RDA in 2011. This variety was developed through pure line breeding method from Jeju landrace. ‘Samdachal’ is a medium maturing variety having 133 days of growth duration from transplanting to harvesting in Milyang of Korea. The culm length is about 128 cm which is longer culm length than standard variety ‘Hwanggeumejo’. However it is adapted to mechanized cultivation because it is tolerant to lodging in field. The panicle shape is a cylinder type and the length is 28cm. Regarding to the grain, color and endosperm characteristics are grey and glutinous. The Calcium, Magnesium and polyphenol contents in grain are showed higher than standard variety ‘Hwanggeumejo’. The milled yield performance of this variety is about 2.24 MT/ha in local adaptability test from 2010 to 2011. ‘Samdamchal’ would be adaptable to plain area of Korea.
