阐述了棉花育种现状及发展趋势 ,提出了棉花育种目标的制定应具体、明确 ;加大杂种优势研究力度 ,重抓优势组合筛选 ,规范制种流程 ,探索杂种优势理论机制 ;进行育种技术集成 ,加大育种选择技术研究力度 ;创造优良亲本材料 ,搜集鉴定特异种质 ,建立育种基因库 ;采用组织培养及转基因等生物技术 ,将外源优良基因导入棉花等策略 The status quo and development trend of cotton breeding were expounded. The goal of cotton breeding should be defined concretely and clearly. Intensification of research on heterosis should be emphasized, screening of dominant combinations should be emphasized, the flow of seed production should be regulated, the theoretical mechanism of heterosis should be explored, Increase the selection of breeding technology research efforts; to create good parent material, collect identification of specific germplasm, establishment of breeding gene pool; using tissue culture and transgenic biotechnology, the introduction of foreign genes into the cotton and other strategies
