我国的甜菜育种始于50年代代初,至今已有30年的历史,于此期间先后育成甜菜新品种30多个。目前在甜菜生产上大面积种植的品种有10多个。但是,与我国的玉米,水稻等作物的新品种相比,我国的甜菜品种对提高甜菜生产水平的作用还有很大的差距。再以近年来自国外引进的优良甜菜品种相比较,我国品种的生产力也表现有较明显的差距,如瑞典的Monohill。西德的Kawemono,美国的MonoHYA,以及日本的等品种,在我 Beet breeding in China began in the early 1950s and has been 30 years old. During this period, more than 30 new varieties of beets were cultivated. Currently there are more than 10 varieties cultivated on a large area in beet production. However, compared with the new varieties of crops such as maize and rice in our country, the sugar beet varieties in our country still have a big gap to the improvement of the sugar beet production level. Then in recent years, the introduction of foreign sugar beet varieties from abroad compared to the productivity of our species also showed a more significant gap, such as Sweden’s Monohill. West Germany’s Kawemono, the United States MonoHYA, as well as Japan and other varieties, at me
