Advances in Quality and Maturity Breeding of Important Deciduous Fruit Trees in China
In China,there are four kinds of important deciduous fruit trees with a cultivation area of over 666 700 hm2:apple,pear,peach and grape.According to the quality and maturity,several generations of domestic genetic breeders,after decades of collaborative innovation and joint research,created a high-quality and efficient breeding technology system on the basis of excellent germplasm evaluation and creation,and bred a series of high-quality new cultivars of apples and pears with high quality,storability,different maturity and diverse characteristics,and bred high-quality new cultivars of peaches and grapes in early,middle and late maturity.A high-quality and efficient supporting cultivation technology system for new cultivars has been developed,which has promoted the large-scale popularization and application of independent research and development of new cultivars and the high-quality and efficient development of the industry,and provided important support for ensuring the annual demand for high-quality fruits.
