普利司通成功破解橡胶树基因组日本普利司通轮胎公司前不久表示,已成功破解橡胶树的基因组序列,并已研发降低橡胶树患病率的技术,以提高乳胶的产量和质量。基因组序列包含有关橡胶树的生命繁殖等重要遗传信息,使用这些数据可以改进育种技术及天然胶的种植方法。该公司表示,这项技术能更好地开发植物克隆,并提高乳胶的产量和质量。相关数据也可用于不同的研究领域,包括发展具有优异的抗病性和抗逆性橡胶树克隆。同时,普利司通仍将继续关注橡胶树的白根病问题,这一问题 Bridgestone Successfully Tackles Rubber Tree Genomics Japan’s Bridgestone Tire Company recently said it has successfully cracked the genomic sequence of rubber trees and has developed technologies to reduce the prevalence of rubber trees in order to increase latex production and quality. The genomic sequence contains important genetic information about the life cycle of the rubber tree, which can be used to improve breeding techniques and natural gum cultivation methods. The company said the technology enables better development of plant clones and increased latex production and quality. Relevant data can also be used in different research areas, including the development of rubber tree clones with excellent disease resistance and resistance. In the meantime, Bridgestone will continue to focus on the issue of white root disease in rubber trees
