This article summarizes the research progress inthe breeding of maize haploids, including the production and identification of maize haploids, especially the methods to produce doubled haploids and the selection of basic materials, as well as the applications of the maize haploids in maize breeding. Finally, this article pro- poses several issues researchers should pay attention to, and the prospects of hap- Ioids in maize breeding.
[Objective] This study was aimed to screen out the strong-aroma tobacco variety with good ecological adaptability as the best cultivar in Chizhou. [Method] Based on the ecological conditions that formed the strong aroma style of tobacco leaves in the tobacco-growing area, 6 varieties（K326, NC55, NC71, 0508, Yunyan99, Yan240） were selected and compared through combining the demand characteristics of industrial enterprise to the quality. [Results] The output value of 0508 was the highest and NC71 had a medium output value but with coordinated chemical composition. The system evaluation of this study on the quality and characteristic style further clarified the feature strength and utility value of various tobacco varieties with strong aroma. [Conclusion] NC71 is the best cultivar in Chizhou tobacco-growing area, and it is suggested using NC71 as the demonstrative variety of the next year. The study on the excavation and screening utilization of tobacco varieties with local features is of great significance to the tobacco production industry.
