Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a breeding method for improving the quality of hybrid rice. Background technique
[0002] Hybrid rice is obtained by crossing the female parent with the male parent to obtain hybrid seeds, and then using the first generation of hybrids (F 1 ) to produce rice, hybrid rice has heterosis, which significantly increases yield compared with conventional pure line varieties. The premise of obtaining heterosis is that there is a large genetic gap between the female parent and the male parent, which requires that the female parent and the male parent have different genetic backgrounds and breeding goals. There are large differences in quality traits between the parents bred by the existing hybrid rice breeding technology, because the first generation of hybrids (F 1 ) produced rice is actually the second generation (F 2 ) individuals, their quality traits must be separated. The hybrid rice eaten is a mixture of grains of different qu...
