Chinese cabbage is a staple food to Korean, which has the high degree of self-sufficiency and worldwide breeding technique in the aspect of seed. However, the producers' competitiveness has been decreasing after the agricultural product market was open. In order to cope with this problem, the government introduced some policies for promoting seed industry in 2007 to reflect producer's needs for high quality seeds of Chinese cabbage. These policies will be a good opportunity for producers to secure and promote the producers' competitiveness against low-price importing Chinese cabbage. In this aspect it is very important to know how well these policies are established and what Chinese cabbage farmers want in regard to a new variety of Chinese cabbage seed. This study was carried out to look over the Chinese cabbage producers' using pattern about a new variety of seed and show some directions for efficient way of diffusion of a new variety of seed to producers using a survey research. The main results are as follows. The producers thought the characteristics of a new variety of seed most important factor compared to other factors such as the seed price, and easiness of cabbage sales when they choose a seed. Also, the 65% of respondents were willing to accept a new variety of seed and thought the government support for an exhibition field and diffusing public information about a new variety of Chinese cabbage seed are important in accepting a new variety of seed.

The National Forest Seed and Variety Center aims to write a manual for cultivation and characteristic inspection of new seed varieties in Korea, serving dual purposes. The first is the enhancement of the test guidelines, particularly the distinctness, uniformity and stability (DUS) test, for new seed variety, where research and examination are conducted based on the test guidelines. However, if the crop-specific test guidelines are initially reorganized, the details are unclear. Therefore, it seeks to maintain a written record to prevent confusion when the person in charge is changed. The second is to encourage the development of new varieties. By incorporating general characteristics and cultivation techniques in the manual, it seeks to encourage breeders to develop new varieties. Additionally, it serves as an important chronological record of the creation process, thereby helping future manual authors. This article introduces the current status of new plant variety protection and outlines the significance of creating a manual for cultivation and characterization of Actinidia arguta for screening new varieties.

This paper outlines the system and operation of plant variety protection right and plant patent of ornamental crops in USA to guide for application of new varieties developed in Korea and to use for national examination of applied variety from USA. The Plant Variety Protection Act(PVPA) in USA is given as PVPR to the developers of new variety for the seed propagating crops and tubers and provides as plant patent for asexually reproducing crops. A certificate of PVPR and plant patent is awarded to an owner of a variety has shown that it is new, distinct from other varieties, genetically uniform and stable through successive generations by official evaluation without the growing trial. The term of protection for plant patent and PVPR for most crops is 20 years but 25 years for trees, shrubs, and vines. The application of ornamental variety in USA is mostly for plant patent. The application of ornamental crops accounted for 87% of total applications for plant patent. The ratio of new variety applications for plant patent from national and foreign countries is not significant differences.

The objective of this study was to know prospect and present state of new variety breeding of Forage and Grassland in South Korea. The industry of forage in Korea is going up to expend through utilization of good quality forage, Italian ryegrass, forage corn and oat rather than rice straw. Especially, since 2007, Italian ryegrass(IRG) had been very important major winter forage crop in South Korea and developed 13 varieties including very early maturity variety (three varieties), early maturity variety (three varieties), medium maturity variety (one variety) and late maturity variety (six varieties). But the disadvantage of Italian ryegrass was weak winter hardness and drought but has good advantage of forage nutritive value, high-yielding and high sugar content, and like livestock as like hanwoo, dairy cattle, goat so on. The Ko-variety (Korea developed variety) of Italian ryegrass has high cold-tolerant and adaptability more than any other country developed variety, and expend to cultivation area from southern area (below Daejeon) to middle-northern area (upper Han river). Although the cultivation area of Italian ryegrass of South Korea was 21,700 ha in 2007, right now, that of Italian ryegrass is about 123,600ha due to expend cultivation area and know famer to good forage crop and have a various maturity varieties (very early, early, medium, late) according to local situation (before-crop harvesting stage or double cropping system). The seed market of Italian ryegrass in South Korea becoming extended to around 100 million Korean won and seed export get nearer to foreign country. We are going to develop of new variety for stress tolerant and high yield and quality forage variety, good adaptability to the Korean environmental conditions including reclaimed area, make self-sufficiency system for forage seed (Italian ryegrass), export our seed to foreign countries.

This study was carried out to investigated the actual state of rice milling at local milling plants and to find out sources for elevating their milling recoveries in both quantity and quality. At 36 local milling plants located in Gyeongnam and Jeonnam , milling recoveries and head rice recoveries were measured with respect to their different milling systems and rice varieties. Then, the same samples of rice were milled by experimental milling equipments at laboratory, and the two experimental results were compared in order to determine the amount of milling recovery possibly to be increased. The results of this study are as follows ; 1. Milling recoveries of rice at local milling plants were proved to have no relationship with milling systems, and were 68.1% per ent and 72.6percent on an average with new variety and native variety, respectively. 2. The milling recoveries above stated can be elevated 4.5 percent and 2.9percent with new variety and native variety, respectively, by developing and extending technologies of manufacturing and handling rice milling machinery. 3. The head rice recovery of new variety at local milling plants has insignificant differences among milling systems, and was 54.8 percent on the average. With native variety, the recovery by friction type rice polisher was 0.9percent higher than that of friction-abrasive type polisher, and was 64.9 percent on the average. 4. The head rice recoveries of new variety and native can be elevated 5.1percent and 3.9percent, respectively, by the same stimulation above mentioned.

There are some international standards and organization controling the quality characteristics of varieties and seeds such as UPOV, OECD, ISTA, AOSA. The National List system to check variety performance such as quality characteristics of plant varieties and seeds was established by each countries. The UPOV (International Union for the Protection of New varieties of Plant) regulates the requirement of plant variety protection that is distinctness (D), uniformity (U), stability (S) (here in after called DUS), Novelty and Denomination, and some quality characteristics are used to examine the requirement of plant variety protection by each crops. OECD (Organization for Economic Cooperation Development) seed scheme regulates the seed certification for seed trade between countries. ISTA (International Seed Testing Association) and AOSA(Association for Official Seed Analyst) regulates the seed analysis standard and methods. Most of the countries in Europe has the National List system, which check the value for cultivation and use(VCU), that is to say, variety performance such as yield, quality and stress to environment. All the seeds should be enlisted in the National List before sell the seed in their country. All the quality characteristics checked variety performance are for instance, amylose and amylopectin content in rice, molting quality, $\beta$-glucan, protein in barley, protein and sugar content in soybean, sugar and amylopectin content in corn etc. Conditions for the protection of new variety of plant are DUS. Quality characteristics may be the important characteristics and used to check DUS in crop by crop. It is very important to develop a new characteristics and establish standard method fur examine the VCU and DUS test for each crop.

We bred a new green-kerneled glutinous rice variety that can be cultivated in the whole area of Korea, because only one native green-kerneled glutinous rice cultivar, "Saengdongchalbyeo", has been cultivated in the southern coastal area due to its late heading. The seeds of "Saengdongchalbyeo" were irradiated with 200 Gy of gamma ray in 1995. A promising mutant variety, "Nogwonchalbyeo" ("Wonnong 17") was selected through line selection and regional yield trials. In particular, the new variety revealed at the earlier mid of August compared to that of "Saengdongchalbyeo", the early of September, and it was considerably tolerant to a field lodging due to its shortened culm length. Also, "Nogwonchalbyeo" had a higher ripened grain ratio and 1,000 grain weight compared to the original variety. The brown grain yield of the new variety was about 5.40 MT/ha, which was 11.3% higher than that of the original variety, in the regional yield trials at 3 different fields during 2000~2001. The brown and milled grains of the new rice variety contained 20 to 65% higher amount of total amino acids, respectively than that of the original and two checks. For chlorophyll -a, -b and total chlorophyll, the new variety showed nearly two-fold higher than the checks, and for the carotenoid, it had 5.3 - 7.6 times higher amount. These results showed that the new variety can be cultivated as a special green-kerneled glutinous rice with high functional compounds.
