「Akinoushi-40」 is a new variety developed by Akita Agricultural Experiment Station, for the purpose of breeding of a late maturing and good-taste green soybean. It is a selection from the cross between AG209 and AG306 made in 2001, followed by line selection. AG209 and AG306 are selected from local varieties in Akita. The agricultural characteristics of 「Akinoushi-40」 are as follows: 1. Maturing is earlier than that of 'Kinshu' and later than that of 「Hiden」, which belongs to the late maturing group. The period is the off-crop season of green soybean in Akita. 2. Appearance quality is good, because of white pubescences and green color of young pods, which is the same size as 「Akita-Kaori-Goyou」. 3. Yield potential is same as that of 「Akita-Kaori-Goyou」. 4. Taste of blanched young bean is good, which is better than that of 「Kinshu」. 「Akita-Honoka」 is a new variety developed by Akita Agricultural Experiment Station, for the purpose of breeding of a medium-late maturing, good-taste and well yielding green soybean. It was selected among the plants regenerated from adventive embryo, which was induced from the cotyleden of variety 「Hiden」. The agricultural characteristics of 「Akita-Honoka」 are as follows: 1. Maturing is earlier than that of 「Kinshu」 and later than that of 「Hiden」 which belongs to the medium-late maturing group. 2. Appearance quality is good, because of white pubescences and green color of young pods, which is the same size as 「Kinshu」. 3. Yield potential is higher than that of 「Kinshu」. 4. Taste of blanched young bean is good, which is better than that of 「Kinshu」.
