On August 23, the fresh -cut flower seeds who took the twelve -man manned spacecraft in the Shenzhou to arrive in Kunming, Yunnan.

In the laboratory of Yunnan Jinke Flower Engineering Research Center Co., Ltd., researchers were checked for "space seeds". These seeds will go through a series of processes such as disinfection, refrigeration (90 days), germination, sowing, etc., and then form seedlings and are screened and cultivated.

At 9:22 on June 17, 2021, Yunnan Rose Seeds rose off at Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center with Shenzhou 12 manned spacecraft. On September 17, Shenzhou 12 returning compartment was recycled at the scheduled area of the Dongfeng landing site, and aerospace breeding was also shipped to the China Space Technology Research Institute with the return capsule.

This time, the rose seeds that followed Shenzhou Twelve fly into space are the aerospace breeding by the National Flower Engineering Technology Research Center, the National Flower Industry Technology Innovation Strategic Alliance, and the Yunnan Jinke Flower Engineering Research Center Co., Ltd. , Cindela, Jilieta Tower, Dianhong, Mohon and other two series of roses of rose hybrid seeds, including food, gardens, and cut flowers, with a total weight of 101.8 grams.

"Each seed may become a new variety, and the flower type and color may be completely different." He Qiong, executive deputy general manager of Yunnan Jinke Flower Engineering Research Center Co., Ltd. Real seedlings of mutations are cultivated and applied for new varieties. It is expected that a stable new variety will be officially pushed to the market after four years. At that time, the Kunming Flower Patriotic Center will use big data and platform advantages to promote and promote the new roses of "space seeds".

The seed industry is regarded as a "chip" that is agricultural, and the new variety is the inherent driving force for the continuous and high -quality development of the flower industry.

The benefits brought by aerospace breeding are very large. New varieties that can successfully pass aerospace breeding generally have the advantages of high yield, high quality, and strong disease resistance.

Equipped with the seeds of Shenzhou Twelve, turning around the earth station around the earth, high speeds of 655 kilometers per minute, and the influence of space radiation and weightlessness caused by cosmic rays and solar magnetic storms, the gene arrangement or genetic structure of the seeds will change.

He Qiong said that this "space seed" is a new step in the research and development of new varieties of flower in addition to hybrid breeding and other methods. It has great significance for cultivating new varieties and strengthening the development of new flowers in independent intellectual property.
