Breeding of Osmanthus delavayi

INQUIRY

Osmanthus delavayi integrates greening, beautification, and fragrance, and is an excellent garden plant for both ornamental and practical use. As an essential garden plant, it is rich in resources and has many cultivation types. Still, there have been problems such as confusion of varieties and backward breeding methods, which have seriously disturbed and restricted the benign development and benefit enhancement of the Osmanthus delavayi industry.

Lifeasible is dedicated to the research of Osmanthus delavayi germplasm innovation and quality variety breeding. It aims to provide effective and efficient solutions to promote the benign development of the Osmanthus delavayi industry. So far, we have established the technology system of selective breeding, hybrid breeding, mutagenesis, and molecular breeding. These technologies are effectively used in Osmanthus delavayi germplasm innovation and variety selection.

Application values for Osmanthus delavayi

  • Osmanthus delavayi is an evergreen tree with lush foliage and fragrant flowers in autumn. It is commonly used in gardens and used as a garden tree, which has a good landscaping effect.
  • Osmanthus delavayi is resistant to sulfur dioxide and hydrogen fluoride and is also an excellent flowering tree for industrial and mining areas.
  • Osmanthus delavayi is aromatic and contains a variety of spices, which can be used for food or spice extraction.

What we offer

  • Flower color breeding. We have cloned and studied the genes regulating Osmanthus delavayi flower color and analyzed the structural genes of Osmanthus delavayi flower pigments. We have improved the flower color of new Osmanthus delavayi varieties with antisense RNA technology, exogenous gene insertion, nuclease inhibition, and co-inhibition. Breeding Osmanthus delavayi has greatly improved its ornamental value.
  • Breeding for colored leaves. We have bred some new superior varieties with variegated leaf colors in recent years by using artificial selection and bud change breeding. The colorful leaf varieties we bred have stable and consistent traits, and the colorful leaf period is as long as half a year. The color is especially bright in spring and autumn, which has good ornamental value and greatly enriches Osmanthus delavayi's ornamental characteristics.
  • Aroma breeding. Terpenoids are the largest group of plant floral fragrance substances, and they are also the main components of many plant fragrance substances. At present, we have successfully cloned some genes related to terpenoid synthesis. The isolation of these critical genes regulating Osmanthus delavayi fragrance currently affects the genetic improvement of Osmanthus delavayi aroma quality. We have two main approaches to improving Osmanthus delavayi aroma quality at the molecular level in Osmanthus delavayi aroma quality breeding, one is to introduce floral aroma-related foreign aid genes, and the other is to regulate the expression of endogenous related genes.
