Breeding a New Early Maturing Hybrid Rice Variety,Minbiao You 1095

To select an early maturing hybrid rice suitable for cultivation in southern China,the widely applied restorer line Minghui 82 was used to cross with the blast resistant Japonica Yunyin and the late recovery variety,HK01.As a result,the new restorer line Fuhui1095 was successfully bred through multiple crosses with a confirmation by years of inoculation tests as well as bioassays on samples from the fields of naturally induced blast infections.Subsequently,Minbiao You 1095 was bred.It exhibited the desirable characteristics of early maturity,good plant type,large panicles with numerous spikelets,fine color change at mycelium ripening and high yield.The new variety was certified by Fujian Crop Variety Appraisal Committee in June,2014,and considered suitable for promotion in the province.
