Thick-skinned melon variety breeding method

Abstract

The invention provides a thick skinned melon variety cultivation method which belongs to plant varieties breeding methods in agricultural field. Homologously hybrid the segregating progeny of thick skinned melon material PI414723 introduced from Italy and 'Pearl 200' produced by Japanese 'Mikeduo' company after eight generations as the female parent material, hybrid the segregating progeny of Japanese melon 'Ilizabirth' and the Chinese thin skinned white melon 'Baishami' as the male parent material LH-1, select from the cross combination and cultivate the new variety 'Huangguan No.1'. The new variety has the merits of good appearance, large fruits, high sugar content, 4 cm in thickness flesh, good taste, easy transportation and preservation, high production cultivated in open field or greenhouse and low seed producing cost.

Description

[0001] Technical field [0002] The invention belongs to the field of breeding methods for agricultural plants, in particular to a method for cultivating melon varieties. Background technique [0003] Melons can be divided into 2 categories, namely thin-skinned melons and thick-skinned melons. Thin-skinned melon is native to my country and is cultivated in various regions of my country. It has the advantages of strong adaptability and easy cultivation, but it is not resistant to storage and transportation. The single melon is small and its quality is not very outstanding. Thick-skinned melons are not native to China. They are big, thick, of good quality, and resistant to storage and transportation. They are the main melons in Europe and the United States. Through historical introductions and exchanges, thick-skinned muskmelons can be grown in open fields in Xinjiang, Gansu, and Inner Mongolia. , such as Hami melon, Bailan melon, Hetao melon, etc. are famous all over the world...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Since the reform and opening up, through the efforts of breeders, muskmelon varieties that can be cultivated in protected areas in inland China have been bred, but these varieties basically cannot be planted in the open field, so they cannot be planted on a large scale, and mass consumption

[0004] The muskmelon varieties in my country are all bisexual flowers, that is, there are stamens in the female flowers, and must be castrated during hybrid seed production, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, which increases the cost of seed production, while cultivating unisexual flower varieties can increase the seed yield of the first generation of hybrids and reduce Production costs, improved seed quality
