The invention discloses a method for rapidly breeding a new variety of medicinal
locust tree, which comprises the following steps: (1) collecting
locust tree branches in different regions,
grafting in the same region, and keeping the stock age and the later-period management measure consistent; (2) performing continuous regular monitoring, adaptive observation and botanical shape continuous observation after
grafting survival; (3) according to monitoring and observation results of 3-5 years, excellent plants with fast growth vigor, strong resistance and obvious biological characters are screened out; (4) determining the
rutin content in the
sophora flowers of the screened plants, and screening out the plants with high
rutin content; and (5) detecting the expression levels of
rutin synthesis related genes and degradation genes in the
sophora flower buds of the screened plants, and finally determining the
sophora flower buds with high
synthetic gene expression quantity and low degradation
gene expression quantity as excellent varieties. According to the method for rapidly breeding the new variety of the medicinal
locust tree, evaluation is more comprehensive, excellent varieties can be screened out more easily, and the breeding time is greatly shortened.
