NOVEL VARIETY OF BRASSICA CAMPESTRIS VAR. PEKINENSIS HONGBAECHOO AND METHOD FOR BREEDING SAME

摘要

The present invention relates to methods of breeding Brassica campestris var. pekinensis Hongbaechoo grown by deriving interspecific hybrids with Hongssamchoo using Korean Cabbages as bleeding plants and executing line acclimation test, self-incompatibility test and seed productivity test and reproduced by unsexual propagation through tissue culturing method wherein: (1) Leaves have somewhat oval and round shape; (2) Inner side and outer side of a midrib represent white color, pink color or red color for individual plant, respectively; (3) Heading types are circular shape and ellipsis shape; (4) Front side and rear side of lamina (chlorophyll) are dyed red in scarlet color, and sometimes purple color or black color may be represented; (5) The majority of veins show white color, and some veins represent pink color or red color; (6) Leaf margin has a few flat jogs and bends showing pink color or red color; (7) Size of heading is about 1/3 to 1/4 of common Korean Cabbages; (8) Phylloplane is glossy and mesophyll is crispy; (9) The degree of self-incompatibility is low and seed vernalization types are shown as in radishes and Korean Cabbages; and the vegetable may be used for rice wrapping vegetable, green vegetable juice and salad as well as kimchi as existing Korean Cabbages, so this vegetable would be highly useful in the industry thanks to its importance in agricultural economy.
