Propagation in the traditional sense is seed propagation, which is the propagation mode of fruit trees and other plants formed in the long-term natural evolution process. Seed propagation is the most common and basic method of fruit tree propagation. What is the breeding method of fruit trees? Which fruit trees are suitable for various methods?
Many flowers and fruit trees have seeds, so using them to propagate new seedlings is the most common method. Seeds are sown directly and a large number of seedlings are cultivated in nurseries, which are very convenient to manage and very low in cultivation efficiency and cost.
It should be noted that the vast majority of flowers can be grown by direct seeding, and the majority of seedlings obtained by direct seeding of fruit tree seeds are seedlings, usually unfruiting or of poor quality. Therefore, grafting and other work are needed to get good seedlings. Flowers and fruit trees, such as deciduous roots, grapes and pineapples, can be propagated from cuttings as long as branches and leaves can take root.
Cut off the thick, sterile branches and leaves. Branches and leaves should not be too tender. After cutting in rich loose soil, branches will take root and sprout after a while. When branches grow new branches a second time, they can be transplanted. During this time, water the soil regularly to keep it moist, but do not soak it to avoid sunlight.
Cutting propagation density, centralized management, high cost, low efficiency, is a common method of commercial seedling. Cutting requires a large number of mature shoots to supply the branches. High quality citrus seedling wholesale, base direct sales.
Root division propagation is also a method widely used in agriculture and forestry to propagate new seedlings. Rooted flowers can germinate, and rooted fruit trees, such as canna, plum, star fruit, and pineapple, can be propagated by dividing roots. The root division of flowers is the cutting of roots from the mother seedling and then planting the roots in the soil to take root and germinate.
However, the roots of fruit trees divide and reproduce differently. The specific operation is to dig out some soil from the lateral root of the tree, cut the lateral root from the primary root, and then keep the lateral root soil moist. After a period of time, the lateral roots will sprout. After three times of germination and branching, the ends of the lateral roots can be cut off to obtain new seedlings.
Root flower transfer speed, high efficiency, low cost. Fruit tree split root seedling survival rate is not high, often not suitable for commercial seedling. Mature plants are needed for root division and reproduction. Some fruit trees develop tumor-like tissue when their branches are peeled off. The plant, such as lychee, longan and guava, can be used to grow new seedlings by wrapping around branches.
Select a healthy branch that is about three years old and use a knife to cut two circles of the straight part of the branch, three to five centimeters apart. The bark is then removed between the two cuts. After a week, mud rope is made from straw and other fertile soil.
Then, wrap the mud rope around the peeled part of the branch and wrap the mud ball in a clear film. When you see new roots growing in the mud mass, this indicates that the ring branch is successful. After three root divisions, ring branches can be sawed off from the side of the trunk to obtain new seedlings. The new seedlings obtained can be planted directly or first.
Ring branch seedling raising speed, simple operation, new seedling bearing, can be obtained with the same characteristics of the original plant seedlings. Ring-branch propagation requires luxuriant plants to provide branches. Grafting is a common method for growing fruit trees. First, a large number of seedlings are grown from seeds to obtain rootstock.
Then, buds and branches are cut from mature and fine planted plants as scions, and the interface between the stock and scion is cut. The scion is then inserted into the stock so that the two cambium are tightly connected and wrapped in a transparent membrane. After a period of time, the buds grow through the film, which means that the grafting is successful.
Grafted seedlings usually need to germinate and branch more than three times before new transplantable seedlings can be obtained, which usually takes more than a year. Grafting is a common commercial method for large – scale seedling of fruit trees. New seedlings can obtain the combined advantages of rootstock and scion plants. Nursery stock takes a long time to grow, and scion plants need to be bred. After grafting, new seedlings need to be managed for a period of time. Long cycle, high technical requirements.
