The invention relates to a
crop breeding method, in particular to an innovative breeding method of a Huanglv-Lancaster
population germplasm. The method includes the steps: selecting a Huanglv modifiedpopulation inbred line as one of parents, hybridizing the Huanglv modified
population inbred line and a Lancaster
population inbred line, taking the Huanglv modified population inbred line as a parent to perform backcross once, and continuously
inbreeding multiple generations by a Gaodayan breeding method to
breed a plurality of excellent inbred lines; confirming the selected inbred line belonging to a Huanglv-Lancaster population by the aid of an SSR (simple sequence repeats)
molecular marker technology; selecting inbred lines from an X population as a female parent testing variety to perform
test cross; repeatedly planting the
test cross variety in multi-point multi-row areas by taking a current Chinese mainly-planted corn variety as contrast, and selecting one inbred line to obtain a new Huanglv-Lancaster population
germplasm. The inbred line has the advantages that the yield of
test cross combination is 10% higher than that of the Chinese mainly-planted corn variety, a ripe stageis early, vertical lodging resistance is high, head
smut resistance is good, poor soil tolerance is achieved,
dewatering speed is high, grains are low in
water content, and the characters of the inbred line are superior to those of
hybrid combination of an original parent and the female parent testing variety. The method aims to improve the genetic
gain of Chinese specific
germplasm resources.
