油茶种质改良现状及其花药培养技术的应用前景

Prospects for Application of Anther Culture in Variety Improvement in Oiltea Camellia

以花药培养为主的单倍体育种技术在植物种质改良方面具有重要作用,它在农业和园艺植物中已得到了广泛的应用,单倍体育种技术具有其他种质改良方法所不可比拟的优良特性。油茶种质改良是培养优质高产油茶品种的主要途径之一,如果将花药培养及单倍体育种技术尽快应用到油茶的种质改良中,将会给我国的油茶生产带来福音。

Haploid breeding technique, mainly involving anther culture, plays a very important role in idioplasm melioration in plants. Now it has been broadly applied to the fields of agriculture and horticulture. Haploid breeding technique has some dominant characteristics as compared with other breeding methods. Applying the technique to oiltea camellia, which can hopefully generate improved varieties, will greatly benefit the production of this woody edible oil plant.
