[0037] In order to further understand the content of the present invention, the present invention is described in detail in conjunction with the embodiments. It should be understood that the embodiments are only for explaining the present invention and are not intended to limit it.

[0038] Example:

[0039] A lotus tissue culture rapid propagation method in the present embodiment specifically comprises the following steps:

[0040] (1) Choose plump and mature lotus seeds with shells.

[0041] (2) Lotus seed processing and disinfection method: Use tweezers to peel off the lotus seeds, soak them in washing powder for 5 minutes, rinse them under running water for 30 minutes, then rinse them with deionized water for 3 to 5 times, and place them on a sterile operating table for use. Wash them with sterile water for 3 to 5 times, soak them in 75% anhydrous ethanol (75% alcohol) for disinfection for 2 minutes, and shake them constantly; pour out the alcohol and wash them with sterile water once, then soak them in sterile water for 5 minutes (to remove excess alcohol soaked in the seeds to avoid poisoning), then wash them with sterile water for 3 times, then disinfect them with a prepared 30% sodium hypochlorite solution for 20 minutes, then wash them with sterile water for 3 to 5 times, and set them aside.

[0042] (3) Explant acquisition: Use a sterile scalpel to break the middle of the lotus seed and take out the lotus embryo. Use a scalpel to remove the bottom and top of the lotus embryo, inoculate it into MS culture medium, and culture it at 26-28°C. Calculate the contamination rate after 7 days, which is about 2%.

[0043] (4) Induction of embryonic shoots: The uncontaminated embryos in the MS medium were transferred to the induction medium. The composition of the induction medium was: MS medium + 1 mg / L 6-BA + 0.2 mg / L IBA. After inoculation, sterile water was added to the bottle to half cover the lotus embryos. The culture was placed in a 28°C culture room for 7 days in the dark, and then placed in a 28°C culture room with a light intensity of 4000 lx and a photoperiod of 12 to 14 h / d. The induction rate was 85 to 92% after 25 days, and 2 to 3 regenerated shoots were obtained.

[0044] (5) Proliferation of regenerated shoots: Divide the induced regenerated shoots into one shoot each, cut off the upper stems and leaves and inoculate them into proliferation medium. The components of the proliferation medium are: MS medium + 3 mg / L 6-BA + 0.2 mg / L IBA. After inoculation, add sterile water to half cover the shoots. Place them in a 28°C culture room and culture them in the dark for 7 days. Then place them in a 28°C culture room with a light intensity of 4000 lx and a photoperiod of 12 to 14 h / d. After 25 to 30 days, 3 to 10 regenerated shoots will be produced.

[0045] (6) Rooting culture of lotus seedlings: Select lotus seedlings with a height of about 5 cm, uniform growth and robustness, cut single or cluster shoots and inoculate them into rooting medium 1 / 2MS + NAA 1.0 mg / L. After inoculation, add sterile water to half cover the seedlings, place under LED lighting for 16 hours / day, culture for 20-25 days, and the rooting rate is 95-100%.

[0046] (7) Seedling hardening and transplanting technology: Open the bottle mouth of the lotus seedlings and place them in a shaded place for about a week. Slowly move them to a place with good light for hardening for about a week. Turn the bottle or bag surface frequently to allow the tissue culture seedlings to receive light evenly, so that the hardened tissue culture seedlings receive light evenly and are healthy. Take out the hardened lotus seedlings, wash the root culture medium, and place them in pond mud for hardening. The final survival rate can reach 83-92%.

[0047] Specifically, the lotus tissue culture rapid propagation method in this embodiment can better improve the lotus breeding speed and survival rate, and can stably produce a large number of high-quality seedlings in a short time.

[0048] Furthermore, in this embodiment, 30% sodium hypochlorite is preferably used as a disinfectant for lotus seeds; and an induction medium composed of MS medium + 1mg / L6-BA + 0.2mg / L IBA is preferably used; a proliferation medium composed of MS medium + 3mg / L6-BA + 0.2mg / LIBA is also preferred; and a rooting medium composed of 1 / 2MS medium + NAA1.0mg / L is also preferred; this embodiment can better improve the efficiency of lotus tissue culture propagation through the above preferred schemes, and the above preferred schemes can be better applied to the industrialized breeding of lotus. Using the scheme of this embodiment, the following comparative experiments were specifically carried out:

[0049] Experiment 1:

[0050] Table 1 Effects of different disinfectants and disinfection time on lotus seed disinfection

[0051]

[0052] In this comparative experiment, after the lotus embryos were inoculated into the MS medium in step (3), the culture was carried out for 7 days, and the disinfection effect data were statistically analyzed. It can be seen from Table 1 that sodium hypochlorite is suitable as a disinfectant for lotus seeds. Sodium hypochlorite as a disinfectant not only solves the disinfection problem of lotus seeds, avoids the use of toxic disinfectants such as mercuric chloride, does not cause pollution to the environment, and has low cost.

[0053] From the data, it can be seen that the contamination rate of 30% sodium hypochlorite solution disinfection for 20min to 30min is 2% to 3%. Because lotus seeds are wrapped in seed coat and seed flesh, the use of 30% sodium hypochlorite in this embodiment can better reduce the contamination rate without damaging the lotus embryo itself; ensure that the contamination rate of fungicide S206 is 34% to 52%; the contamination rate of the control is as high as 77%. From the data, it can be seen that the best disinfection method for lotus seeds is T5: the specific disinfection process is as follows: tap water rinse for 30min → sterile water wash 3 to 5 times → 75% ethanol disinfection for 2min → sterile water wash 3 to 5 times → 30% sodium hypochlorite solution disinfection for 20min → sterile water wash 5 times.

[0054] The above disinfection process can achieve a better disinfection effect and can better screen out 30% sodium hypochlorite as a better disinfectant.

[0055] Experiment 2: Effects of different hormones on lotus seed embryo induction

[0056] Table 2 Effects of different hormones on lotus seed embryo induction

[0057]

[0058] The experimental data in step (4) were placed at 28°C, with a light intensity of 4000lx and a photoperiod of 12-14h / d. After culturing for 25 days, the data were statistically analyzed. The statistical data can be seen from Table 2 that the average induction rate of group B4 is the highest. Therefore, IBA can be used as a plant growth regulator for lotus seed embryo induction, with an induction rate of 92%. In the control medium MS, there is only a single bud seedling with roots. In the plant growth regulator IAA medium, some clustered buds are also induced, but the hard texture of the bud affects differentiation and there are calluses. In the NAA medium, there are 1-2 regenerated young buds, and the buds are weak and have roots. Therefore, IBA is more suitable as a plant growth regulator for lotus. IBA has a high induction rate for lotus embryos and is easy to form seedlings, which can better improve the problem of low lotus embryo induction rate.

[0059] Experiment 3: Effects of different concentrations of plant growth regulator 6-BA on the proliferation of lotus regeneration buds

[0060] Table 3 Effects of different concentrations of plant growth regulator 6-BA on the proliferation of lotus regeneration buds

[0061]

[0062] The experimental data in step (5) were cultured at 28°C, with a light intensity of 4000 lx and a photoperiod of 12 to 14 h / d. Statistics were collected after culturing for 25 to 30 days. The statistical data can be seen from Table 3 that the average induction rate of group C3 was the highest. When the concentration of the plant growth regulator 6-BA was 3 mg / L, the proliferation coefficient of the lotus regeneration buds reached 5 to 10 times, the buds were strong and the leaves were stretched; when the concentration of the plant growth regulator 6-BA was 1 to 2 mg / L, the proliferation coefficient was only 2 to 3 times, which was a low proliferation coefficient, there was no callus, and the leaves were green; when the concentration of the plant growth regulator 6-BA was 4 to 5 mg / L, the proliferation coefficient was 2 to 5 times, there was callus, the proliferation coefficient was reduced, the buds were short and the leaves were small.

[0063] Therefore, in comparison, the proliferation medium that is more suitable for lotus regeneration buds is C3: MS + 3mg / L6-BA + 0.2mg / L IBA. The components of this proliferation medium can better improve the proliferation coefficient of lotus, so as to ensure the high efficiency and stability of the lotus tissue culture rapid propagation method in this embodiment.

[0064] Experiment 4: Effects of different culture media on rooting of lotus seedlings

[0065] Table 4 Effects of different culture media on rooting of lotus seedlings

[0066]

[0067] The experimental data in step (6) were placed under LED lighting for 16 hours / day, and statistics were collected after culturing for 20 to 25 days. The statistical data can be seen from Table 4 that the average induction rate of group D3 is the highest. Therefore, the medium 1 / 2MS+NAA1.0mg / L is a better rooting medium for lotus tissue culture seedlings, with early rooting time, thick and long roots, strong seedlings, good growth, and a rooting rate of 100%; the rooting rate of the medium 1 / 2MS is lower, the rooting time is long, the number of roots is small and short; the medium 1 / 2MS+IBA0.5mg / L and 1 / 2MS+IBA1.0mg / L can also root, but the rooting rate is not high, the seedlings are average, the roots are short, the roots are thin, the roots are few, the rooting time is short, and the seedlings and roots are prone to yellowing. Therefore, the more suitable rooting hormone for lotus is NAA (naphthaleneacetic acid), and the best rooting medium is 1 / 2MS+NAA1.0mg / L.

[0068] Experiment 5: Hardening of Lotus Tissue Culture Seedlings in Bottles

[0069] After obtaining complete plants with roots in step (6), the bottle seedlings were placed in an indoor environment with a shading degree of 50% to 70% and a temperature of (25±2)°C, and the light intensity was increased from 20 to 40 μmol / (m 2 ·s) gradually increased to 75~100μmol / (m 2 ·s). After 7-10 days, first loosen the bottle cap for 1-2 days, then half-open the bottle cap for 1-2 days, and finally open the bottle cap completely, harden the seedlings for 3-5 days, gently pick out the bottle seedlings with sterilized long tweezers, put them in a basin of clean water, carefully wash away the culture medium remaining at the roots of the plants, and then soak them in 500-800 times diluted 50% carbendazim wettable powder for 20-30 minutes, and then transplant them outside the bottle for hardening.

[0070] Experiment 6: Hardening of Lotus Tissue Culture Seedlings Outside Bottles

[0071] After obtaining the plants obtained in Experiment 5, the clay or silt is first evenly sprayed with 0.1% to 0.4% potassium permanganate solution or 500 to 800 times diluted carbendazim wettable powder for disinfection, 3% to 5% quicklime, stirred evenly, made into a conical soil pile, covered and sealed with a polypropylene plastic film, and dried in high temperature weather conditions for 7 to 10 days, or the substrate is sterilized by high temperature dry heat sterilization. When the temperature of the sterilized soil drops to room temperature, it is placed in a (9 to 12) cm (diameter) × (7.5 to 14.5) cm (height) seedling cup or non-woven seedling bag, and the lotus tissue culture seedlings in the bottle are placed in the prepared seedling cup for cultivation, placed under a shade shed for cultivation until new leaves grow out, and then transferred to normal cultivation under sunlight (20-30 days), the shade shed has a shading degree of 70% to 90% for cultivation for 7 to 10 days, and then transferred to full sunlight conditions for cultivation.

[0072] After Experiments 5 and 6, the survival rate of the plants can reach 83%-92%;

[0073] Therefore, the present embodiment uses lotus seeds as explants, and the rapid propagation method of the present embodiment can better ensure a high survival rate while rapidly propagating.

[0074] It is easy to understand that those skilled in the art can combine, split, reorganize, etc. the embodiments of the present application to obtain other embodiments based on one or several embodiments provided in the present application, and these embodiments do not exceed the protection scope of the present application.
