The preliminary core set of 4,406 diverse rice germplasm accessions was developed from 24,368 germplasm rice accessions conserved in the RDA Gene Bank, and then, a core set of 166 diverse rice germplasm accessions was developed from this 4,406 accessions based on genotyping using 15 SSRs. We are conducting the whole genome re-sequencing of the Korean authentic core set to perform GWAS analysis with re-sequencing information. Using whole-genome genotypic information, large numbers of molecular tags can be developed across 12 different rice linkage groups based on their contributions to specific phenotypes. Based upon the selection of accessions with desirable traits through phenotypic analysis and GWAS, bi-parental mapping populations and genome marker assisted rice breeding will be performed through crossing with Korean elite lines. The current tools which provided the basis to discover superior alleles through ‘mining’ the genes of interest from diverse genetic resources, will ultimately allow the development of new varieties with superior traits.
