The new wheat variety "Jiemai 19" has been approved at the provincial level.

??? Recently, good news came from Zhongjie Agricultural Science Institute in Bohai New area. through nearly a decade of scientific research, the new wheat variety "Jiemai 19", a new wheat variety independently cultivated by them, has been formally approved by the crop Variety Committee of Hebei Province. the approval number is Ji Shanmai 2015009. This is another wheat variety that has been approved by Hebei Province after "Jimai 32".

??? It is reported that in view of the ecological conditions in the Heilonggang basin (the Heilonggang basin includes 50 counties, cities and districts in Hengshui, Xingtai, Handan, Cangzhou, Baoding and Shijiazhuang), as well as the disadvantage that the varieties of "Jimai 32" are easy to lodge, the Institute of Agricultural Sciences decided to cultivate new varieties with the breeding goal of multi-resistance (drought and salt resistance, cold resistance, dry and hot wind resistance, disease resistance, lodging resistance) water saving, high yield and stable yield. The high yield was achieved by improving the yield potential of the variety, and the stable yield of wheat was ensured by the multi-resistance of the variety.

??? Zhang Jianguo, director of the Institute of Agricultural Sciences, said that Jiemai 19 was an excellent variant selected in the production field of "Jimai 32" in 1996. It was selected from the 19th line with good performance. It was formally bred in 2006 and tested in this region, and the results were very satisfactory. In 2010, they were submitted to the Provincial crop Variety approval Committee for approval, and after the regional test of the Provincial crop Variety approval Committee, they were formally approved by the Provincial crop Variety Application Committee this year.

??? The average growth period of "Jiemai 19" is 247 days, and the drought resistance reaches the second grade standard. In terms of disease resistance, it has high resistance and immunity to stripe rust and leaf rust, and its lodging resistance is also greatly improved compared with "Jimai 32". According to the provincial production test, the highest yield per mu reached 379.4 kg, which was more than 50 kg higher than that of "Jimai 32" mu. The popularization and application of "Jiemai 19" in production can make the wheat yield of dry and alkaline land in Bohai New area to a new level and play an important role in the development of agriculture.
