It is important to understand pedigree of rice cultivars commonly used for breeding. In this paper, pedigree tables for tracking the pedigree of 17 representative rice cultivars recommended by Rural development Adminstration (RDA) were completed and analyzed using two kinds of web database system; "IRIS" and "RRDB". Seven cultivars, namely, "Sangmibyeo", "Ilpumbyeo", "Saegewhabyeo", "Surabyeo", "Shindongjinbyeo", "Ilmibyeo" and "Jungwhabyeo", had "Koshihikari" on the pedigree of their ancestor. Besides "Koshihikari", the most feguently used ancestral germplasms among the high quality rice cultivars were "Fujisaka 5", "Kameno o" and "Asahi", "Fujisaka 5" was used as ancestral parent in 12 out of 17 cultivars.
