At a recent acceptance meeting held by the Ministry of Science and Technology on the 27th, regarding the national research and industrialization of genetically modified plants, it was revealed that Chinese scientists have achieved significant progress in isolating and cloning key functional genes in plants. This breakthrough has marked a turning point, as China has begun to reduce its historical reliance on importing foreign genes for genetic improvement. Over 610 new genes have been identified, among which 46 are considered to have substantial application value and are protected by independent intellectual property rights. Examples include the rice tiller gene, which plays a crucial role in crop yield enhancement. Moreover, researchers have made initial progress in establishing efficient and safe genetic transformation systems for major crops such as cotton, rice, and rapeseed, as well as for trees, flowers, and fruit-bearing plants. These developments represent a major step forward in China's efforts to strengthen its biotechnology capabilities and promote self-reliance in agricultural innovation.
