Breeding of Lonicera japonica

INQUIRY

Lonicera japonica is native to East Asia and is usually grown as a decorative plant. It not only has high ornamental value but also has high medicinal value and purges heat and detoxifies. In-depth research into Lonicera japonica breeding is critical to enhance the ornamental value of Lonicera japonica and increase the commercial value of Lonicera japonica.

Lifeasible is a professional plant breeding company, and we aim to provide a comprehensive solution to plant breeding using advanced biotechnology. In Lonicera japonica breeding, we have produced several high-quality varieties that have greatly enriched Lonicera japonica variety resources.

Breeding of Lonicera japonica

Our breeding platform

  • Selective breeding. Through selective breeding, we have produced high-quality varieties with large buds, long flower needles, thick petals, strong erectness, sturdy stems and branches, short flowering internodes, longer flowering periods, and increased resistance to adversity. We have bred Lonicera japonica, and in addition to effectively improving the ornamental quality of Lonicera japonica, we have also effectively enhanced the adaptability of Lonicera japonica and the content of effective medicinal ingredients.
  • Cross breeding. We use crossbreeding techniques to cross different types or genotypes of Lonicera japonica to obtain new varieties with superior traits of both parents. These varieties have been widely used in Lonicera japonica breeding research. For example, the new hybrid varieties of Lonicera japonica that we have adopted from multiple crossbreeding techniques have large tree shapes, high flowering rates, high yield, concentrated flowering periods, and high drought, cold, and salinity resistance, and other excellent qualities.
  • Polyploid breeding. Using polyploid breeding techniques, we have produced tetraploid plants of Lonicera japonica. These plants exhibit excellent ornamental characteristics with strong erect stem branches, stout, short internodes, broad leaves with a deeper leaf color, and larger and more numerous flower buds. In addition, we bred polyploid Lonicera japonica varieties to increase the yield of Lonicera japonica and improve its active ingredient content.
  • Molecular breeding. We breed Lonicera japonica biotechnologically based on conventional breeding. For example, we have established the linkage between the genetic variation of markers or candidate genes and target traits by constructing molecular markers and genetic maps. We have further developed Lonicera japonica through molecular marker-assisted breeding and functional gene localization and cloning. We have developed new varieties of Lonicera japonica with more colorful flowers and significantly improved their ornamental quality.
