辐射育种在农作物和经济作物方面,近年来已被广泛应用。如:华南农学院用快中子处理板栗后各器官的变异较大,一年结实两次,就大大提高了经济收益。以快中子处理油茶也同样得到明显的变异,如:叶面的角质层增厚,从这一点就增加了植物的抗性。茶树育种上也应用辐射育种方法,如用钴的处理。为此,我们用快中子处理了萌发的茶籽和扦插枝。 Radiation breeding in crops and cash crops, has been widely used in recent years. Such as: South China Agricultural College fast neutron processing chestnuts large variation of organs, twice a year, it greatly increased the economic benefits. Fast neutron treatment of Camellia also received significant variability, such as: thickening of the cuticle of the stratum corneum, from which increased plant resistance. Tea breeding also applies radiation breeding methods, such as the use of cobalt treatment. For this purpose, we treated germinated tea seeds and cuttings with fast neutrons.
