The fruit is in the shape of long finger with few wrinkles and good gloss, and tastes very spicy .The fruit has a vertical diameter of 17.5 cm, a transverse diameter of 1.6 cm, a fresh thickness of 0,20 cm and a single fruit weight of 15.6 g. It is yellowishgreen in the early maturation stage and yellow in the late maturation stage. The cultivar exhibited high resistance to pepper blight, viral diseases and powdery mildew, and showed an average yield of 56 493,0 kg/hm^2. It could be generalized in Gansu, Ningxia, Liaoning and Zhejiang.展开更多

The results showed that the contents of reducing sugar in root tube of low starch cultivars were higher than those of high starch cultivars in all growth periods, the contents of sucrose in root tube of high starch cultivar were higher than those of low starch cultivars in the early growth period, but, lower in the late growth period, and there were almost no difference in the contents of soluble sugar in root tube between high starch cultivar and low starch cultivar in the early growth period, but notable difference in the late growth period and the soluble sugar contents of low starch cultivars were higher than those of high starch cultivars. It also-showed that the activities of ADPGPpase, SSS, and SBE (starch branching enzyme) of high starch cultivars were higher than those of low starch cultivars. It was evident that there were close correlations between the content of sucrose, reducing sugar and soluble sugar in root tube, and the activities of ADPGPpase, SSS, SBE, and the starch accumulation in the root tubers of cassava. It was quite evident in this experiment that the soluble sugar and starch synthetic key enzyme were main factors controlling starch accumulation in root tubers. These results provided important indication for physiological controlling in high starch cultivation and gene engineering breeding of high starch cultivar of cassava.展开更多

Of these measures, biotechnology applications probably hold the most promise in augmenting conventional agricultural productivity, because biotechnology applications give not only the need to increase production, but also protect the environment and conserving natural resources for future generations. Biotechnology applications will have the possibilities to increase productivity and food availability through better agronomic performance of new varieties, including resistance to pests; rapid multiplication of disease-free plants; ability to obtain natural plant products using tissue culture; diagnosis of diseases of plants and livestock; manipulation of reproduction methods increasing the efficiency of breeding; and the provision of incentives for greater participation by the private sector through investments. Insect resistance through the transfer of a gene for resistance fromBacillus thuringiensis (Bt) is one of the most advanced biotechnology applications already being commercialized in many parts of the world. This paper reviews the development and the status ofBt technology and application ofBt transgenic plants in current agriculture, and discusses specific issues related to the transfer of the technology to the future of genetic engineered trees with emphasis on conifers.

Tea Germplasm resources are the material foundation for improving varieties and also the basic research which is good for developing and expanding tea well-bred varieties in tea field, especially in quality selection and biotechnology research. Furthermore, excellent tea germplasm is primary condition for tea breeding and quality. Therefore, identification and screening excellent tea germplasm become particularly important. We need accelerate develop high-quality tea varieties, and it need to base on exploring and studying tea germplasm. This paper reviews the research progress of tea germplasm on identification from morphological characteristic, biological characteristic, quality characteristic, resistance and heredity. However, there are still some problems on identification and screening of tea germplasm, no effective methods have been found so far which apply on early identification and genetic engineering, so we should make intensive and long lasting study tea germplasm and analyze systematically various identification, which are benefit for breeding high-quality seeds, shortening the breeding period and summing the new way of breeding. We expect them to play the key roles and provide the theory basis for genetic improvement, classification and breeding in tea plant.展开更多

These technologies have opened up a new era for crop improvement due to their precise editing of user-specified sequences related to agronomic traits. In this review, we will focus on an update of recent developments in the methodologies of editing reagent delivery, and consider the pros and cons of current delivery systems. Finally, we will reflect on possible future directions.展开更多
