A New Wheat Straw Rust resistant Variety-Jimai 20
Identified by the International Maize improvement Center in Kenya, Jimai 20 is the only wheat resistant to Ug99 new straw rust among 116winter wheat in China.
On April 12, the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization warned that a new type of wheat stem rust called Ug99 had spread from East Africa to Yemen. This new type of wheat straw rust could pose a threat to 80% of wheat varieties in Africa and Asia, and global food production will suffer heavy losses if it spreads widely.
Wheat straw rust is a fungal disease caused by plants, which is named after the diseased site and appearance color of plants. The wheat straw rust virus, called Ug99, causes rust stains on the stems and tops of grains and gradually destroys plants, with a crop loss rate of up to 40 per cent. Scientists at the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization have warned that 80 per cent of wheat varieties in developing countries are not resistant to Ug99. Among the wheat breeding materials that can be used by breeders around the world to resist Ug99, 36% can be infected by Ug99, 63% are unknown (of which 60% are estimated to be infected by Ug99), and only 0.3% can show some resistance to Ug99.
Scientists are working on new varieties, hoping to protect them from the Ug99 virus. At present, Jimai 20 is the only variety resistant to new wheat stem rust among 116 winter wheat varieties in China.

New techniques of multiple cropping of melon and rice
First, the previous crop of melon 1. High-yield and high-quality melon varieties with a growth period of about 90 days were selected for seed preparation, such as Chaozaotangwang, Hong Orange crisp No. 1 and so on. Turn the paddy field well before freezing last year, rake and ridge, the ridge distance is 50-60 cm, compacted to preserve soil moisture. Combined with land preparation, 5000 kg of high-quality farm manure is applied per mu. two。 Seedling transplanting, soaking seeds in late February and raising seedlings in greenhouse at the end of February and the beginning of March can be used to separate seedlings with seedling bowl after raising seedlings in border bed or directly use seedling bowl to raise seedlings.
