(1) The technique of in vitro rapid propagation of plants is simple and easy to operate and master. As a practical technique, it is very beneficial to popularize in rural areas. Even producers without professional quality can be used to produce seedlings in factories.
(2) There is no special requirement for establishing the base. As long as there is electricity, water and light, the rapid propagation base can be established, and there is no special requirement for soil climate.
(3) With less investment, a production base with an annual output of several hundred thousand to one million seedlings can be established with only tens of thousands of yuan, and the operating cost is extremely low. The cultivation cost of common varieties will not exceed 1 min, which is 110 ~120 for traditional cuttings and1for tissue culture.
(4) It is suitable for rapid propagation of most plants, including various economic plant seedlings used in agricultural and forestry production and greening projects, such as crops, vegetables, fruits, trees, greening, medicinal materials, etc. , is the most popular seedling raising technology at present.
(5) Using computer control and seedling expert system to realize the automation and intelligence of seedling production process is the lowest labor cost seedling raising technology, and it is also a new technology to get rid of traditional empirical seedling raising and move towards industrialized scientific seedling raising. The produced seedlings have good uniformity and high commodity rate.
(6) The requirements for in vitro materials are not strict, ranging from a leaf to a bud to a trunk, which can be propagated rapidly, unlike tissue culture and cutting, with great flexibility and wide application range.
(7) Under the condition of isolation and rapid propagation, the virus-free seedlings can be used as the female parent for multiple generations of circulation, and a large number of cheap and low-cost virus-free seedlings can be produced.
(8) The computer control system of rapid propagation has the characteristics of expansibility and multifunction, and can be used for greenhouse environment control, intelligent irrigation, hydroponic production and intelligent cultivation of sprouts. With the characteristics of convenient software upgrade and easy hardware replacement, it is a rare multi-purpose product in agricultural production.
