Heyu 187 is not a genetically modified variety. Heyu 187 is a corn variety bred from the variety V76-1×WC009. It was approved on June 29, 2017 at the ninth meeting of the Third National Crop Variety Approval Committee, with approval number: Guoshenyu 20170014.

I. Introduction to Heyu 187 variety seeds

1. Characteristics

The maturity period is comparable to that of the control variety Jidan 27. The seedling leaf sheath is purple, the leaves are green, the leaf margins are purple, the anthers are light purple, and the glumes are green. The plant type is semi-compact, the plant height is 282 cm, the ear height is 102.9 cm, and the number of leaves on the mature plant is 18. The silks are green, the ear is cylindrical, the ear length is 20.9 cm, the number of rows per ear is 14-16, the cob is red, the kernels are yellow and dent type, and the 100-kernel weight is 40.6 g. Inoculation identification: moderately resistant to stalk rot, susceptible to northern leaf blight, head smut, ear rot, and gray leaf spot. The kernel test weight is 759 g/L, the crude protein content is 8.16%, the crude fat content is 4.43%, the crude starch content is 74.66%, and the lysine content is 0.26%.

2. Yield performance

From 2014 to 2015, it participated in the regional trial of early-maturing spring corn varieties in Northeast China. The two-year average yield was 908.7 kg per mu, an increase of 10.8% over the control; in the 2016 production trial, the average yield was 857.0 kg per mu, an increase of 11.7% over the control.

3. Key points of cultivation techniques

Cultivate on plots with moderate fertility or above, sow from late April to early May, and plant at a density of 4000-4500 plants per mu.

4. Approval opinion

This variety meets the national variety approval standards and has passed approval. It is suitable for planting in the second accumulated temperature zone of Heilongjiang Province, parts of Yanbian Prefecture and Baishan City in Jilin Province, the eastern part of Tonghua City and Jilin City, the southern part of Zhalantun City in Hulunbuir City, the central and northern part of Hinggan League, the central part of Jarud Banner in Tongliao City, the central and northern part of Chifeng City, the Qianshan area of Ulanqab City, the northern part of Hohhot City, and the northern part of Baotou City in the early-maturing areas of central and eastern Inner Mongolia and other early-maturing spring corn areas of Northeast China. Pay attention to the control of northern leaf blight, head smut, ear rot, and gray leaf spot.

II. Key cultivation points for the Heyu 187 variety

1. Sowing time

Sow in late April and early May;

2. Density

Generally, keep about 55,000-60,000 plants per hectare;

3. Fertilization

Apply sufficient base fertilizer. Generally, apply 250 kg of diammonium phosphate and 100 kg of potassium chloride as seed fertilizer per hectare, and 250-300 kg of urea as topdressing.

The Heyu 187 variety has strong insect resistance and disease resistance, and has strong stalks and lodging resistance.
