풋콩품종의 생육 , 수량 및 외관품질 특성과 파종기의 영향

This study was conducted to obtain the basic informations for developing new varieties and cultural techniques for vegetable soybean at the Crop Experiment Station, Rural Development Administration, Suwon, Korea in 1992. Two vegetable soybean varieties, `Hwaeomputkong` and `Seokryangputkong`, and the other `Jangyeobkong` for soy-paste were planted at three planting dates(April 15, May 15, June 15). The characteristics of growth, yield, and quality were compared between vegetable and soy-paste soybean genotypes in response to different planting dates. Vegetable soybean varieties, `Hwaeomputkong` and `Seokryangputkong` were more resistant to lodging, earlier in maturity, higher in the density of pod set on stem and percentage of poded nodes, and larger in grain size than Jangyeobkong fer soy-paste. Earlier planting(April 15) of vegetable soybean varieties increased the yield of green pod as well as improved quality in number of green pods per 500g and length and width of green pod.
