Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of grafting, and particularly relates to a precise grafting method based on vascular bundle configuration. BACKGROUND
[0002] Grafting is a key technology for improving the stress resistance, yield and quality of crops. Traditional grafting methods mainly rely on the experience of operators, and the cut surfaces of the stock and the scion are aligned by visual observation, without considering the essential difference in the vascular bundle configuration of the two, which leads to a high rate of misalignment of the vascular bundles and directly affects the transport efficiency of water and nutrients, and the contact area of the grafting layer is insufficient, which easily causes problems such as low survival rate of grafted seedlings and long hardening period. In the prior art, although there are improvements in grafting tools, the core demand of matching the cut surface vascular bundle configuration has not been met. Some precise grafting researches focus on the flatness of the cut surface, but the problem of the survival rate of the interface caused by the difference in the vascular bundle structure has not been solved. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a grafting method based on the analysis and matching of the vascular bundle configuration to realize the precise alignment of the vascular bundles and maximize the contact area, thereby improving the grafting effect. SUMMARY
[0003] The purpose of the present application is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a precise grafting method based on the vascular bundle configuration.
[0004] The present application is realized by the following technical solutions:
[0005] A precise grafting method based on the vascular bundle configuration comprises the following steps:
[0006] Step 1: Obtain a micrograph of the cut surface of the stock, and identify the vascular bundle configuration features of the cut surface of the stock;
[0007] Step 2: Obtain a micrograph of the cut surface of the scion, and identify the vascular bundle configuration features of the cut surface of the scion;
[0008] Step 3: Superimpose the micrograph of the cut surface of the stock and the micrograph of the cut surface of the scion, and use image analysis technology to pre-match the vascular bundle configurations of the scion and the stock, with the maximum overlap area of the vascular bundle configuration features of the stock and the scion as the target;
[0009] Step 4: After pre-matching, mark the pose representation data in the micrographs of the cut surfaces of the scion and the stock at this time under the pre-matching state, which is used to provide guidance for the subsequent actual docking of the scion and the stock;
[0010] Step 5: Change the pose representation data marked in step 4 to the coordinate system of the grafting device, and then guide the grafting device to adjust the pose of the scion and / or the stock, complete the docking of the scion and the stock, and maximize the overlap area of the vascular bundles of the scion and the stock;
[0011] Step 6: After docking, the docking part is fixed.
[0012] In the above technical solution, the vascular bundle configuration characteristics of the cut surface of the stock include characteristic data of vascular bundle profile and distribution.
[0013] In the above technical solution, the vascular bundle configuration characteristics of the cut surface of the scion include characteristic data of vascular bundle profile and distribution.
[0014] In the above technical solution, during the pre-matching, the area of the overlapping region of the vascular bundle configuration characteristics between the stock and the scion accounts for more than 70% of the total area of the vascular bundle of the cut surface of the stock. If this requirement cannot be met, the subsequent grafting work is not performed, and the scion or the stock is replaced, and the pre-matching is performed again.
[0015] In the above technical solution, the pose representation data in the marked micrograph of the cut surface of the scion and the stock include the center of the elliptical cut surface of the scion and the stock, the direction of the major axis, and the position of the intersection of the two major axes of the scion and the stock in the micrograph of the cut surface of the stock.
[0016] In the above technical solution, the elastic grafting clamp or the sprayed quick-curing glue is used to fix the docking part.
[0017] The advantages and beneficial effects of the present application are as follows:
[0018] The present application realizes the maximum alignment of the vascular bundles of the stock and the scion by pre-analyzing the vascular bundle configuration characteristics of the cut surface of the stock and the scion, and then adopting the operation process of "vascular bundle configuration pre-matching-positioning marking-maximizing docking", thereby increasing the contact area of the cambium, solving the problem of low nutrient transport efficiency and unstable grafting survival rate caused by the misalignment of sieve tubes and vessels in traditional grafting, and significantly improving the survival rate of grafted seedlings and the growth performance in the later period.

Preferably, the vascular bundle configuration characteristics include: characteristic data of vascular bundle profile and distribution.
[0028] Step 2: Selecting the same leaf stage of scion seedlings, cutting at 45 degrees angle at 0.8-1.2 cm above the cotyledon node, obtaining the micrograph of the scion section by micro-imaging technology, and identifying the vascular bundle configuration characteristics of the scion section.

[0030] Further, during pre-matching, it is necessary to ensure that the overlapping area of the vascular bundle configuration characteristics between the rootstock and the scion accounts for more than 70% of the total area of the vascular bundle of the rootstock section. If this requirement cannot be met, the subsequent grafting work will not be carried out, and the scion seedling or the rootstock seedling will be replaced, and the pre-matching will be carried out again.
[0031] Step 4: After pre-matching is completed, in this pre-matching state, the pose representation data in the micrograph of the scion and the rootstock section at this time is marked, which is used to provide guidance for the subsequent actual butt joint of the scion and the rootstock, so that the actual butt joint of the scion and the rootstock reaches this pre-matching state.
[0032] Preferably, the marked pose representation data in the micrograph of the scion and the rootstock section includes: the center of the elliptical section of the scion and the rootstock, the direction of the major axis, and the position of the intersection of the two major axes of the scion and the rootstock in the micrograph of the rootstock section.
[0033] Step 5: The pose representation data marked in step 4 is changed in coordinates and converted to the coordinate system of the grafting device, and then the grafting device is guided to adjust the pose of the scion and / or the rootstock, and the butt joint of the scion and the rootstock is completed, so that the overlapping area of the vascular bundle of the scion and the rootstock is maximized.
[0034] Step 6: After the butt joint, use elastic grafting clamp or spray quick curing glue to fix the butt joint, ensure that the butt joint surface has no displacement, and then place it in a suitable healing environment for healing period management of the grafted seedling.
