New high-yield insect-resistant cotton variety successfully bred in Anhui
The Cotton Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences recently bred a new cotton variety (Zhongmiansuo 53) in Hefei that can increase yield by 20%. A single cotton plant can bear more than 50 cotton bolls, and the seed cotton yield per mu can reach 751 jin, twice that of ordinary cotton, and it also has stronger insect resistance. At present, Zhongmiansuo 53 has been listed as a subsidized variety for the promotion of improved cotton varieties in Anhui Province in 2007. At the same time, Zhongmiansuo 53 is also a dual-gene transgenic insect-resistant cotton.
