A Ranking Overview of High-Yield Rice Varieties in China
Rice is a crop planted extensively in many regions of our country, especially in the southern regions. For rice cultivation, what many growers pursue is high yield, so do you know what the high-yield rice varieties are? Below, we introduce the ranking of high-yield rice varieties in China.
1. Chaoyou 1000
As an important variety of the fifth-phase super rice, "Chaoyou 1000" is also a project variety of the "13th Five-Year Plan" national key research and development program "Utilization Technology of Rice Heterosis and Creation of Strong-Heterosis Hybrids", successfully developed by Yuan Longping's team after 3 years of meticulous research. The average yield per mu is 1013.8 kg.
2. Y Liangyou 900
Y Liangyou 900, bred under the leadership of Deng Qiyun, a member of Yuan Longping's innovation team, is highly favored by all collaborating parties because it set the world record for the highest yield per mu of hybrid rice over a relatively large area, at 988.1 kg.
3. Zhun Liangyou 527
"Zhun Liangyou 527" is a new super-high-yield combination newly bred by the China National Hybrid Rice Research and Development Center, and is also one of the achievements of the China Super Rice Breeding Project, a project funded by the Premier's Fund and led by Academician Yuan Longping. This combination variety has the characteristics of large panicles, heavy grains, high yield, excellent quality, and relatively strong stress resistance. The average yield per mu reaches 810.6 kg.
4. C Liangyou 608
The C Liangyou 608 variety is an indica two-line hybrid rice. When planted as a single-season mid-season rice in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, the effective number of panicles per mu is 169,000, the plant height is 110.8 cm, the panicle length is 23.9 cm, the total number of grains per panicle is 171.0, the seed-setting rate is 80.7%, and the 1000-grain weight is 27.1 g.
5. Ling Liangyou 211
The Ling Liangyou 211 variety is an indica two-line hybrid rice, planted as double-season early rice in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River. The effective number of panicles per mu is 234,000, the plant height is 79.8 cm, the panicle length is 18.7 cm, the total number of grains per panicle is 105.8, the seed-setting rate is 82.9%, and the 1000-grain weight is 26.3 g.
6. Fengyuan You 299
The Fengyuan You 299 variety is a three-line hybrid medium-maturity late indica, with an effective number of panicles per mu of 190,000, a panicle length of about 22 cm, a total number of grains per panicle of about 135, a seed-setting rate of about 80%, and a 1000-grain weight of 29.5 g.
7. The "Yazhan" strain
The "Yazhan" strain is well coordinated in terms of high yield, high quality, and resistance. On the basis of high yield, it has achieved a breakthrough in quality, and it adapts to current new agricultural development trends such as direct seeding and clean production. It will lay a good foundation for the improvement of rice quality across the province during the "13th Five-Year Plan".
The above is an introduction to high-yield rice varieties. Generally, high-yield rice varieties are mostly hybrid rice. Many people say that if the yield is high, then the taste must be poor. Actually, that is not the case. These varieties have the characteristics of both high yield and high quality, and are rice varieties worth developing and planting in suitable regions.
