Objectives of this study were to select inbred lines which have a good eating quality and desirable segregates during inbreeding of waxy corn. The 64 inbred lines showed a large variance in their kernel shape and weight. 100-kernel weight, pericarp thickness, kernel length, kernel width, and kernel thickness ranged 11.7~37.3 g, 11~77 ㎛, 5.8~9.6 mm, 6.5~10.0 mm, and 4.1~6.8 mm, respectively. The physicochemical analysis of 64 waxy corn inbred lines showed crude protein, crude fat, free sugar, and amylopectin content ranging 8.7~15.8%, 2.3~5.8%, 1.1~11.0%, and 78.5~93.8%, respectively.
