Breeding and Application of New Hybrid Rice Combination “Xieyougan 26”

By crossing between “Xieqingzao A”(female parent) and restoring line “C1429”(male parent) which was bred by the author,a new hybrid rice combination“Xieyougan 26” was successfully bred. The average yield of “Xieyougan 26” in the regional tests for middle-late maturing late indica rice varieties in southern rice region in 1998 and 1999 is 6.87t/hm\+2 and 6.94t/hm\+2 respectively. This combination shows high and stable yield,good rice quality,strong comprehensive resistance and high yield of seed production in popularization and utilization. It is suitable to plant “Xieyougan 26” as double-cropping late rice in the middle and south of Jiangxi. The culture and seed production techniques of this combination were presented in the paper.\;
