激光育种是激光在生物学研究中一个重要的应用领域。安徽激光育种已有十年。研究证明,激光作为诱变的一种手段,在适合的条件下,能够提供新的选育品种;在诱变机理的研究方面,也已取得一些进展。 经激光辐照处理的水稻、小麦、玉米、棉花、大豆、油菜、果树、茶叶、蚕桑等等15种44个品种,凡有突变体而坚持进行选育的,都已有成果报道。 Laser breeding is an important field of application of laser in biology research. Anhui laser breeding has been ten years. Studies have shown that laser as a means of mutagenesis, under the appropriate conditions, can provide new breeding varieties; mutagenesis mechanism in the research has made some progress. A total of 44 species of 15 species of rice, wheat, corn, cotton, soybean, rapeseed, fruit tree, tea, silkworm mulberry and etc. have been treated by laser irradiation.
