  • Publication number: 20230189733
    Abstract: A method for breeding a new germplasm of clubroot-resistant orange-heading Chinese cabbage includes: (1) obtaining F1 by hybridizing orange-heading Chinese cabbage as a female parent and clubroot-resistant Chinese cabbage as a male parent, obtaining F2 by selfing F1 individual plants, planting F2 populations, and extracting DNA from the individual plants of F2; (2) observing horticultural traits of F2, and performing observation and statistics of head color phenotypic traits through cutting head; (3) performing PCR amplification with DNA of F2 using a dominant orange gene marker Br530 and a clubroot-resistant marker SC2930-T/SC2930Q, and identifying a genotype of the individual plants; (4) performing a comprehensive evaluation according to the results of marker detection and the observation of horticultural traits, selecting double-site homozygous clubroot-resistant orange-heading Chinese cabbage plants, and selfing the individual plants for 2 consecutive generations; and (5) obtaining a new germplasm of club

  • Publication number: 20220304265
    Abstract: A method for breeding new purple-orange Chinese cabbage germplasm crosses the purple head Chinese cabbage inbred line 11S96 as the male parent and the orange Chinese cabbage inbred line 11J11 as the female parent. On the basis of selecting individual plants with good heading property in the F2 population, molecular markers are used to select individual plants carrying the purple-head gene and the orange gene. Through selfing of individual plants for three consecutive generations, a new Chinese cabbage germplasm with green outer leaves and purple-orange head leaves is bred. This method aggregates the purple-head gene and orange gene which are expressed in the head leaves of Chinese cabbage, creating a new Chinese cabbage germplasm with purple-orange head leaves. It enriches Chinese cabbage breeding materials, lays the foundation for breeding the new purple-orange Chinese cabbage variety, and sets a precedent for the aggregation of the head color traits of Chinese cabbage.
