竹类植物遗传改良研究进展

Advances in Genetic Improvement of Bamboo Plants

竹子是森林资源的重要组成部分,由于其本身所具有的特殊性和产生的巨大经济效益,其研究愈来愈受到重视。目前在竹子分类、生长、繁殖、形态结构、竹材理化性质和加工利用等方面的研究已取得很多成果并得到推广,在竹子遗传改良方面的研究也取得了一定进展。本文从竹类植物的种质资源收集、良种繁育、细胞生物工程、分子生物学等方面系统综述了近几十年来国内外竹子遗传改良的研究现状,试提出竹类植物遗传改良研究中应重点加强的几个方面工作。

Bamboo is an important part of forest resources. Because of its particularity and the huge economic benefit, more and more people attach importance to its research. Now studies in taxonomy, growth, propagation, morphosis structure, physical and chemical property of bamboo wood, process and utilization of bamboo had gained more achievements which had been extended, as well as great progress in genetic improvement of bamboo. This paper reviews the present study status in genetic improvement of bamboo plants involving collection of germ plasma resources, improved seeds breeding, biological engineering and molecular biology in domestic and abroad. This paper also discussed several aspects in genetic improvement of bamboo plants, which should be emphasized. 
