AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies make it difficult to quickly and stably cultivate new high-quality long-grain japonica rice varieties that meet the needs of the southern market, especially in regions such as Jiangxi where there is a lack of high-yield and disease-resistant long-grain japonica rice varieties.
A high-quality long-grain indica rice variety from the south was used as the male parent and a large-spike japonica rice variety as the female parent for hybridization. Combined with molecular breeding technology, plants with specific genotypes were screened through field selection and molecular marker detection. Through continuous generation and gene homozygosity, plant type and grain type were optimized to obtain a new high-quality long-grain japonica rice variety from the south with target gene homozygosity.
This improved the efficiency of targeted selection, enabling the rapid and stable breeding of new high-quality long-grain, large-panicle japonica rice varieties with a length-to-width ratio of 3-4 in southern China. This meets the demand of the high-end market in southern China and enriches the rice germplasm resources in the south.

Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application relates to a breeding method of a new japonica rice variety, in particular to a breeding method of a new high-quality long-grain japonica rice variety in the south. BACKGROUND
[0002] The indica and japonica rice has its own characteristics, and China has always had the planting tradition of 'indica in the south and japonica in the north'. For a long time, the domestication and adaptation of rice in China have formed a planting pattern of 'indica in the south and japonica in the north' with the Qinling-Huaihe River as the boundary. Relatively speaking, the indica rice in the south has a fluffy and fragrant taste, and the japonica rice in the north has a smooth taste and has more chewability.
[0003] With the improvement of people's living standards and the demand for material diversity, and the smoothness and other characteristics of japonica rice that indica rice does not have are beginning to be adapted by some people in the south. 'Japonica rice moving to the south' has become an important goal of rice breeding and improvement. Moreover, the cultivation of japonica rice with indica characteristics can integrate the early growth and quality characteristics of indica rice and the cold tolerance and chewability of japonica rice, which is a direction of high-end new rice cultivation.
[0004] The length-width ratio of general japonica rice is about 1.6, the length-width ratio of partial long-grain japonica rice is about 2.5, and the length-width ratio of high-end quality indica rice in the south is about 4.0. At present, the round-grain japonica rice is difficult to meet the demand of the south market, and the japonica rice has the chewability and smoothness that indica rice does not have, and is gradually accepted by some markets in the south. Cultivating a new japonica rice variety suitable for the south can enrich the rice resources in the south.
[0005] There are some japonica (waxy) rice varieties in Jiangxi, especially in the northern part of Jiangxi, but they have not been improved for a long time. In order to meet the requirements of modern breeding level, excellent japonica rice varieties need to be introduced for trial and improvement. After more than three years of introduction and trial, the japonica rice in the northeast (high latitude) is mainly sensitive to temperature, and the growth period is too short and the yield is very low after being introduced into Jiangxi. The japonica rice in the surrounding areas such as Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Anhui is mainly strong to light, and there is no japonica rice variety with high yield, disease resistance and suitable for the south. SUMMARY
