Studies on the development of high-quality and multi- resistant germplasm of cucumber and related breeding technologies of new varieties led by Prof. Gu Xingfang at the Institute of Vegetables and Flowers ( the second prize of the National Science and Technology Progress Awards of China)

The project develops an efficient cucumber disease resistance identification and quality evaluation technology, creates a world-leading molecular marker technology for cucumber multi-genes pyramiding breeding, and overcomes the difficulty of integrating the high-quality and disease-resistant genes. Eight varieties with different ecological types have been bred and their total planting areas come up to 790,000 hectares. The project has achieved a breakthrough of breeding the acantha cucumber with high-quality and multi-resistance.
