둥근마(Dioscorea opposita)의 지역적 적응성 및 수량성 = Reginal Adaptability and Yield of Dungunma(Dioscorea opposita) in Korea

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This study was done to determine the regional adaptability of Dioscorea opposita in Korea. Suwon, Chunchon, Kangneung, Yonchon and Taean had soil pH of 6.62, 5.65, 5.9, 5.9 and 5.82, respectively, being at more unfavorable conditions than a standard soil condition for yam with pH 6.2. The amounts of organic matter in Suwon, Chunchon, Taean, and Yonchon were 1.96%, 4.51%, 3.76%, 1.89% and 1.12%, respectively, being at more favorable conditions than a standard organic matter in soil for yam with 2.0~3.0%. As the results from cultivating of large plantings in different regions, Suwon showed the largest the tuber dry weight of 135g. In comparison of general component between round yam and short yam in the area of Kangneung, protein of round yam(3.30%) was higher than that of short yam(1.40%). Dryness in round yam(36.5%) was lower than that of short yam(28.9%), indicating a higher dry weight ratio of round yam. In tuber extracts analysis, saponins content was respectively 23.7mg/g in round yam and 10.4mg/g in short yam.
