TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of new variety breeding of crops, in particular to a rapid creation method of a sweet waxy double recessive gene corn inbred line. BACKGROUND
[0002] Waxy corn is an important crop integrating food, fruits and vegetables, industrial raw materials, and silage feed, and has a very broad development prospect. With the improvement of living standards, consumers have higher requirements for fresh waxy corn, which should be both nutritious and delicious. Sweet waxy corn varieties contain both sweet corn and waxy corn kernels on the same corn cob, which are sweet and waxy, and have a unique taste, and are deeply loved by consumers.
[0003] Sweet waxy corn varieties are obtained by crossing a sweet waxy double recessive gene corn inbred line with a waxy corn inbred line to obtain F1 hybrid seeds. The F1 plants have both sweet corn kernels and waxy corn kernels on the fruiting ear, with a sweet kernel:waxy kernel ratio of 1:3. The sweet waxy double recessive gene corn inbred line is the basis for breeding sweet waxy corn varieties.
[0004] In addition to the conventional breeding process, the breeding of a sweet waxy double recessive gene corn inbred line also requires the addition of a sweet and waxy double recessive precise identification link, which significantly reduces the breeding cycle and efficiency. Therefore, improving the breeding efficiency, shortening the breeding cycle, and precisely identifying and rapidly creating a sweet waxy double recessive gene corn inbred line are of great significance for promoting the breeding of new sweet waxy corn varieties.
[0005] CN114747482A discloses a breeding method of a high-compatibility sweet waxy double recessive corn inbred line. The specific steps are as follows: first, corn materials with sweet and waxy genes are crossed to form an original population, and F2 generation seeds are obtained by selfing excellent single plants. Sweet kernel seeds are selected for planting, and molecular markers are used to select single plants with waxy genes. Single plants with waxy genes and excellent comprehensive traits are selected for selfing to obtain S1 generation seeds. S1 generation lines are obtained by planting S1 generation seeds, and excellent plants are selected for selfing. The remaining pollen is crossed with a waxy corn inbred line, and the lines are further screened based on the performance of the cross combination. This process is repeated in Sichuan and Yunnan to realize the simultaneous breeding of excellent inbred lines and sweet waxy corn combinations. Although this technology can breed a high-compatibility sweet waxy double recessive corn inbred line, the purification requires a long generation time, and the efficiency needs to be improved.
