‘Haewon’ is a soybean cultivar for soy-sprouts. ‘Bosug’ and ‘Somyeong’ were crossed in 2003, and promising lines were selected from F3 to F6 using the pedigree method (Pedigree: HS1450-2B-3-1-1-2-2-1). Preliminary yield (PYT) and advanced yield trials (AYT) were conducted from 2010 to 2011, and regional yield trials (RYT) were conducted in five regions (Suwon, Naju, Miryang, Dalseong, and Jeju) from 2012 to 2014. In the RYTs, ‘Haewon’ had a smaller seed weight and higher yield than the standard cultivar ‘Pungsannamulkong’, which are desirable characteristics for the soy-sprout process. The morphological characteristics of ‘Haewon’ are as follows: determinate plant type, purple flowers, gray pubescence, yellow pods, small, yellow spherical seeds (8.1 g/100-seeds), and light brown hilum. The flowering and maturity dates were July 29th and October 6th, respectively. Plant height and first pod height were 55 cm and 12 cm, respectively. The lodging tolerance was also strong compared to that of ‘Pungsannamulkong’. The germination rate, total length, hypocotyl length, thickness, and sprout yield of soybean sprouts were 97%, 19.1 cm, 8.8 cm, 2.1 mm, and 513%, respectively. The yield in adaptable regions was 337 kg/10 a, 16% higher than that of ‘Pungsannamulkong’. ‘Haewon’ can be used for soy-sprout with favorable seed size and soy-sprout characteristics, such as germination and sprout-yield.

The Jinsang 2 cultivar is a new late-maturing, low amylose rice variety with a medium to short culm created by the Seedpia Inc. breeding company in 2012. This variety was derived from a cross between Junam, a high-yield and lodging tolerant source, and DM3-8-72-9, which was derived from a cross between Donjinchal and Milkyqueen, with a low amylose content and superior agronomic traits. A general single seed descent method was applied to develop Jinsang 2 in the F3-F4 generations. During the F5-F8 generations, the breeding lines were selected through a pedigree breeding method. A promising line, JS6-B-52-8-3-5-1-B-B-B, was selected and named HJ-6 in 2011. This variety headed on the 25^th of August, which was 14 days later than Hwayoung. The culm and panicle length of the variety was 71.6 cm and 19.9 cm, respectively. The milled rice from the variety had a dull and medium- to short-grain, and the 1,000-grain weight was around 20.0 g. It had a low amylose content of 12.2% and a low protein content of 6.8%. The yield performance of Jinsang 2 milled rice was about 5.36 MT/ha from the ordinary culture replicated yield trial test.

This study was carried out to create new popcorn variety. ‘G-Popcorn’ was made by single crossing with two inbred lines, the seed parent, GP3, and the pollen parent, GP4. The hybrid was made in 2009 and selected in 2014 after investigating characteristics for three years from 2012 to 2014. ‘G-Popcorn’ was evaluated on 2 or 3 places in Gangwon-do for three years. ‘G-Popcorn’ showed higher lodging tolerance and popping volume in contrast to the check variety ‘Oryunpopcorn’. The plant height is 213cm indicating 5cm lower than that of ‘Oryunpopcorn’. Also, ration ear height of plant height of ‘G-Popcorn’ is 59%. The weight of 100 seeds was 15.5g, similar to that of ‘Oryunpopcorn’. The popping volume of ‘G-Popcorn’ was about 28.3cm³/g, higher than 25.0cm³/g of ‘Oryunpopcorn’. The yield of ‘G-Popcorn’ was 467kg/10a in regional yield trials for three years, which was 7% higher than that of ‘Oryunpopcorn’.

‘Jinsang’ is a new japonica rice variety was derived from a cross between ‘Yumetsukushi’ as a high grain quality and ‘Milky queen’ with low amylose content and good eating quality in 2000, and selected by pedigree breeding method until M8 generation. As a result, a promising line, JCH33M-15-1-9-1-5-1-1-1, was advanced and designated as the name of ‘HJ-2’ in 2009. This variety has about 111 days to heading after sowing and has 75.2 cm culm height. Milled rice of that shows dull and medium short grain and 1,000-grain weight was about 20.9 g. It has low amylose content of 11.9% and lower protein content of 6.8%. The yield potential of ‘Jinsang’ in brown rice was about 4.57 MT/ha by ordinary culture in replicated yield trial test.
