Not long ago, the agricultural sector in Tianjin, China Agricultural University to carry out scientific and technological cooperation, in view of constraints in cotton production worldwide problem of Verticillium wilt, the introduction of successful research Nongda transgenic cotton varieties resistant and stress resistance is expected from the beginning of this year so that rural chun hundred mu cotton, cotton production to rid itself of “Cancer” — Verticillium problems.

Experts, Verticillium dahliae is the world’s cotton production in the prevalence of a major problem. Cotton-growing area of Tianjin hundred million mu, Verticillium wilt incidence as high as 80%, generally about 10% reduction in serious decline can lead to total destruction, to the great losses caused by the broad masses of farmers. Cultivating resistant varieties is the world’s recognized as an effective way.

It is understood that the agricultural sector in Tianjin, China Agricultural University to carry out scientific and technological cooperation process, through the introduction of the school developed with independent intellectual property rights of genetically modified high resistance to Verticillium wilt of cotton breeding technology of the major scientific and technological achievements, not only genetically modified cotton resistant yellow wilt disease, salinity, drought-resistant varieties such as excellent coverage of Tianjin, but also through the development of high resistance to Verticillium wilt of transgenic cotton breeding industries, and push the whole country, and then into the world.
