Abstract:
Informationization is the mainstream trend and inevitable choice in breeding. To promote the informatization construction of crop breeding, the application of informatization in breeding under the background of big data was explored from the aspects of germplasm resource management, data collection, pedigree analysis, experimental design, participation process management, genetic and physiological analysis, and variety industrialization promotion. The implementation steps and key points of information-based breeding were pointed out. Taking Xinxiang Academy of Agricultural Sciences in Henan Province as an example, the key steps for implementing information-based breeding were planned, including software application, scientific research management, talent cultivation, hardware updates, and information sharing. The main problems of information-based breeding are not widely accepted by breeders, technology needs to be improved, and there are obstacles to data sharing. The application prospects are also discussed.
