Breeding of Schlumbergera truncata

INQUIRY

Schlumbergera truncata is native to Brazil, and South America. Its leaves resemble the claws of a crab, and its flowers are colorful and graceful, making it a delight to the eyes and of significant ornamental value.

Lifeasible focus on strengthening the research and development of new flower varieties and have established an advanced breeding platform, which plays a vital role in continuously improving the technological content of ornamental flowers.

Breeding of Schlumbergera truncata

Value of Schlumbergera truncata

  • Ornamental value. Schlumbergera truncata has rich colors, beautiful flowers, and strains, and is widely used for indoor decoration.
  • Ecological value. Schlumbergera truncata absorbs carbon dioxide and other exhaust gases and releases fresh oxygen, purifying the air.
  • Medicinal value. The whole plant of Schlumbergera truncata can be used as a medicine, which detoxifies and swellings.

Our breeding platform

We use advanced biotechnology for breeding new varieties of Schlumbergera truncata with excellent and superior quality. This will solve the problem of degradation and poor quality of Schlumbergera truncata varieties.

Tissue culture technology

We provide tissue culture technology that has significant applications in the breeding of new Schlumbergera truncata varieties. We selected stem nodes of Schlumbergera truncata as explants, inoculated them onto shoot induction medium, sent them to the culture chamber for shoot induction culture, and transferred the differentiated explants to succession medium for succession culture, followed by selecting robust differentiated seedlings to be inoculated onto rooting medium for rooting culture, and finally refining and transplanting them to obtain finished products. The use of tissue culture technology to breed new Schlumbergera truncata varieties has the technical feature of a short breeding periods. This accelerates the promotion of existing Schlumbergera truncata varieties.

Breeding novel varieties of Schlumbergera truncata using biotechnology

Breeding new varieties of Schlumbergera truncata, we utilize cell engineering and genetic engineering techniques. Plant cell engineering breeds a variety of haploids, then through somatic cell culture, we screen out the desired somatic mutants, then through somatic cell hybridization, we obtain a variety of somatic hybrid plants, and finally, after screening, we get the desired improved varieties of Schlumbergera truncata. In addition, we provide genetic engineering techniques that are effectively used to improve new Schlumbergera truncata varieties. For example, to enrich the flower color of Schlumbergera truncata, we use genetic mutation technology to modify genes that regulate the flower color trait of Schlumbergera truncata and produce new varieties of Schlumbergera truncata with specific flower colors.

What we provide

We breed new varieties of Schlumbergera truncata in terms of flower color, flower type, plant type, and flowering type, greatly enriching Schlumbergera truncata resources, improving ornamental properties and meeting diversified consumer needs.
