On August 23, the achievement of "realizing the independent and controllable source of rubber tree species in China" independently developed by the rubber Institute of the Chinese Academy of Tropical Sciences was successfully selected as the "landmark achievement of agricultural science and technology in the past decade" by the China Rural magazine micro agriculture, rural areas and farmers.

Rubber somatic embryo seedling independently cultivated

This achievement has broken through the technology of secondary somatic embryo circulation and multiplication of rubber trees. It is the first in the world to realize the large-scale breeding of somatic embryo seedlings (self rooted young clones) of rubber tree varieties independently cultivated in China, such as "Reyan 7-33-97". It has built the world's first large-scale production demonstration base of natural rubber somatic embryo seedlings in China, with an annual production capacity of more than 1 million plants It provides scientific and technological support for ensuring the safe supply of national strategic materials and promoting the high-quality development of the industry.


It is reported that since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, China's agricultural science and technology has made a series of major breakthroughs, and the overall R & D strength of agricultural science and technology has entered the forefront of the world. A large number of landmark achievements have emerged in many fields, such as biological breeding, soil improvement, livestock and poultry aquaculture, plant protection and disease prevention and control, precision cultivation, facility agriculture, agricultural machinery and equipment, post production processing, quality and safety, and green development. The innovation level has entered the first square in the world. In order to welcome the convening of the national agricultural science and technology innovation work conference, the micro agriculture, rural areas and farmers sorted out and shared 30 landmark achievements of China's agricultural science and technology in the past decade.
