After everyone left, Yang Xiaotao got up and returned to the room, suppressing the excitement in his heart and organizing his thoughts.
Blood jade.
The new type of corn has strong salt-alkali resistance and its yield is significantly higher than that of previous corn.
As for whether it is resistant to lodging and whether it is resistant to drought, we need to continue to observe...
Close the book, and every household outside the house turns off the lights and goes to sleep.
There was no other activity at night, and a few energetic people were already making noises.
Yang Xiaotao put away his notebook, then went out and looked at the corn in the yard.
"Xiaowei, it's time to harvest the corn!"
Yang Xiaotao shouted in his heart, entered the yard first, and began to collect corn.
Ten p.m.
Yang Xiaotao specially cooked a pot of braised pork, and put wine on the table to help himself.
This time, think of it as a reward for your hard work.
Of course, if Xiaowei can drink, he doesn't mind "underage" drinking.
With these seeds, when he went to the northwest and faced his sleeping brother, he had an explanation.
Thinking of this, the hand holding the wine glass trembled a little.
The blood willow worn on the chest again was cold, but it felt strangely warm in the hand.
He knew that the blood jade had half of the credit of his brothers.
The wine is drunk and the meat is eaten.
A grain of corn appeared on Yang Xiaotao's hand, and he looked at it carefully under the light.
The blood jade in front of me, to put it bluntly, is using the energy of the implanted blood willow to control the characteristics of corn, thereby enhancing resistance.
It is an enhanced version of C-type corn, which not only enhances resistance but also increases yield.
Of course, the increase is not much, only 3 to 5 times more than C-type corn. Compared with the yield of ordinary corn, it is still far behind.
Enhancement is enhanced, but how it is enhanced, how it is increased, and the mechanism is unknown.
And this is what needs to be explored.
He can't just accept it in a daze.
If someone asks, how would you explain it?
Or luck?
Luck, that's only one percent.
The remaining 99% require theoretical and practical support.
Therefore, Yang Xiaotao wants to go one step further and unravel the mystery.
The human heart is not enough for a snake to swallow an elephant.
If a snake is like this, how much more should it be a highly intelligent person?
Perhaps this is the desire for science and exploration of the unknown.
He wants more, higher.
So, that night, with Xiaowei's wide-eyed expression full of confusion, the hybrid experiment was once again put on the agenda.
Even if it's only two days.
But with Xiaowei's ability as a tool, she can do a lot in two days.
Yang Xiaotao's experiment is very simple.
Rows of corn were planted again, waiting with anticipation.
On Saturday, Yang Xiaotao bought four fist-sized chickens from the pigeon market.
Two males and two females, exactly two pairs.
This is what Yang Xiaotao thought of when he got up to cook in the morning.
Who knows if there are any hidden dangers in the corn produced by this unconventional method? What if someone eats it and something bad happens?
So Yang Xiaotao thought of buying a few chicks to try. If there was really a problem, he might as well stop doing it.
The four chicks were divided into two pairs, one pair was fed a new type of blood jade, and the other pair was fed corn kernels mutated after being injected with energy.
On such a day, Yang Xiaotao was preparing things to go back to Yangjiazhuang.
At night, after completing the corn hybridization method according to the plan, Yang Xiaotao drove back to Yangjiazhuang overnight.
This time I went to say goodbye.
Although Gao Yufeng didn't come and no one informed him, Yang Xiaotao didn't want to postpone the date set.
From now on, we will miss the farming season.
The jeep drove to Yangjiazhuang.
Yang Xiaotao moved the things in the car to his home, including the eggs, meat, vegetables and fruits rewarded by the system this month.
Ran Qiuye was pregnant, and she might be hungry when she woke up in the middle of the night. In addition, eating some fruits during pregnancy was good for the body, so Yang Xiaotao didn't care about this.
"If you move so much stuff, it will get damaged easily if you don't have enough food to eat."
Ran Qiuye looked on and saw a lot of eggs, duck eggs and goose eggs. How much would this cost?
There are also vegetables that cannot be placed on the cupboard, so they are placed in a cool place.
As for the meat and fish, Yang Xiaotao put them away, and some of them were made into bacon and dried fish with salt.
There are so many things, let’s not talk about the cost, just keeping them is the problem.
"It's okay, you, eat hard, you forgot that when you were pregnant with the Dragon Boat Festival, you were very hungry every night."
Yang Xiaotao said seriously, and Mr. Yang on the side listened and smiled.
"You also said it was the Dragon Boat Festival."
"Yes, a kid is like that. You are pregnant with two children this time, so you should eat more."
Ran Qiuye was speechless, but still helped to clean up.
After the vegetables, rice and noodles were placed, Yang Xiaotao personally cooked a few specialty dishes, and the family began to eat.
boom!
The wine cups clinked together, and Mr. Yang and Yang Xiaotao drank a drink.
The wine flowed into the throat, with a spicy taste, and the two of them quickly picked up their chopsticks.
"How's the corn you mentioned last time?"
While Yang Xiaotao was pouring wine, Mr. Yang asked.
"Hey, I was about to report the good news."
Yang Xiaotao filled himself up with wine. Ran Qiuye, who was on the side, also focused his attention when he heard this. The Dragon Boat Festival next to him was holding a pig's trotter in his hand and was chewing it with his newly grown teeth.
The last time Yang Xiaotao came back, he didn't look like he was successful.
Uh-huh~~
Yang Xiaotao cleared his throat.
"Based on my continuous efforts, continuous design, continuous learning, and continuous..."
"Say it nicely."
The grandfather picked up the chopsticks, then picked up a piece of pig ear, dipped it in garlic soy sauce and put it in his mouth.
Ahem
"After hard work, I have found a kind of corn that can be grown on saline-alkali soil."
"...I named this corn, blood jade!"
"Saline-alkali land? Blood jade?"
"Yes, this blood jade is different from ordinary corn. It may not be as good as ordinary corn on ordinary ground, but on saline-alkali land, it is 'high-yielding' corn."
Yang Xiaotao explained happily.
This kind of corn can be planted in the vast saline-alkali land in the northwest and fully utilized.
Of course, he hasn't figured out how to explain it yet, so he can only wait until he goes back to find the results and 'perfect' the theory.
snap
Ran Qiuye quickly picked up the dropped chopsticks.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! A blush appeared on his face.
When he learned that Yang Xiaotao had developed a special kind of corn that could be grown on saline-alkali soil, the admiration in Ran Qiuye's eyes increased again.
The men in my family are getting better and better, and they are simply omnipotent.
After Mr. Yang learned about the situation, although he didn't say anything, his palms trembled involuntarily and the pig ears in his mouth almost fell out.
"So, there wasn't this, this saline-alkali corn before?"
"Yes, but there is very little corn grown."
Yang Xiaotao ate a piece of pig ear by himself, and took the pig's foot from Little Dragon Boat Festival, and tore off a little toe for him to chew on.
The little guy bit into the skin and crunched it happily.
"For example, if you plant a hundred corns, you will grow ten corns, each with a hundred kernels of corn on it."
"If you plant a hundred blood jade, ninety will grow out. Each one will have at least three to four hundred grains of corn."
The intuitive numerical expression made the two people clearly realize the advantages of this blood jade.
"In other words, one acre of saline-alkali land can yield forty or fifty times more than before?"
Ran Qiuye calculated quickly, Yang Xiaotao nodded with a smile, and mentally added, 'If calculated by weight, it's still high.'
"Such a good seed cannot be buried like Yangcun No. 1."
Although Mr. Yang's palms were trembling, the wine cup he picked up did not spill.
Yang Xiaotao held the wine cup with both hands and knocked it gently, and the two of them finished it again.
"I know that when I go to the northwest this time, I will bring the seeds with me to test whether they are suitable for the northwest environment."
"If everything goes well."
Yang Xiaotao didn't say much, but both of them knew that if everything went well, the country would have more food.
More people can eat.
After dinner, Ran Qiuye folded Yang Xiaotao's clothes and prepared things for the business trip.
Yang Xiaotao was holding the little Dragon Boat Festival beside him.
In the middle of the night, when there was silence, two figures slowly lay down.
Ran Qiuye leaned into Yang Xiaotao's arms, holding her arms tightly, rubbing her shy face against Yang Xiaotao's arm.
"Be careful, the four of us are waiting for you to come back!"
"Don't worry, nothing will happen this time. When I come back, our family will live a good life..."
"Um!"
The next day, Yang Xiaotao said goodbye to Ran Qiuye.
If I go back this time, I don’t know when I will come back again.
Yang Xiaotao could see the reluctance in Ran Qiuye's eyes, especially when he opened his mouth to speak a few times, but when it came to his mouth, he was careful to pay attention to safety.
Perhaps she was thinking more than she was saying.
Mr. Yang was very direct and told Yang Xiaotao not to be homesick. The people in the village would take good care of his wife and children for him. Of course, if he could complete the task early, he would come back early.
There is no better home outside.
Teacher Yang Dazhuang, Yang Shitouhong and others also came to see her off. After a few people talked, Yang Xiaotao hugged the little Dragon Boat Festival.
Finally, he held Ran Qiuye's hand and talked to the side for a while, indicating that he would come back before giving birth.
After saying this, in front of the public, Ran Qiuye didn't care what others thought, and started crying while hugging Yang Xiaotao.
At this time, Yang Xiaotao felt psychologically uncomfortable.
Fortunately, it only took a moment before Ran Qiuye left the embrace, wiped away his tears, looked at Yang Xiaotao seriously and said some reasonable words.
Then he asked Yang Xiaotao again to pay attention to safety and come back early.
Yang Xiaotao nodded after calming down.
Finally, with the arms of everyone waving, he drove away.
When returning from Yangjiazhuang, Yang Xiaotao first took a look at the chickens raised in the yard. Xiaowei fed them when he was away. Now it seems that the chickens are useless.
However, it may also be related to the short time.
After feeding some corn kernels, Yang Xiaotao began to harvest the corn and continued his research.
Just looking at the pile of corn on the table, Yang Xiaotao covered his head.
The original expectations turned into nothing.
"It's hard to find happiness for yourself!"
The book clearly records that through the cross between blood jade and C-type corn, Yang Xiaotao named the corn grown as D-type corn.
But this D-type corn is worse than C-type corn, not only smaller but also less grown.
Moreover, the corn kernels only have the outermost transparent layer, the peel, and are almost hollow inside.
This corn, it is obvious that it has not been planted!
The result was true, when Xiaowei was asked to encourage the seeds to germinate, she was told that the seeds had no buds.
My good boy.
Yang Xiaotao easily crushed a corn kernel. It was so brittle that there was nothing left in it!
"No wonder it has to grow!"
Looking at the plan, everything was in vain, and Yang Xiaotao even had a headache.
"That's not right. The fact that this hybrid can grow corn means that there is nothing wrong with the parents, but they didn't plant it."
"This phenomenon is a bit familiar!"
Yang Xiaotao rubbed his chin and thought carefully.
"Xiaowei, you said the energy of this corn is lower than that of blood jade but higher than that of C-type corn!"
咻咻
Xiaowei is sure.
Yang Xiaotao conveniently wrote three numbers on the paper.
1,1.5,2.
If the energy of type C corn is 1, then this is 1.5, and the energy of blood jade is 2.
Da da
The pencil poked the paper, and suddenly Yang Xiaotao drew a cross on the side of the paper, and then wrote 2.
"Tetraploid, let me go, this blood jade is actually tetraploid!"
Yang Xiaotao quickly drew on the paper.
After a while, the numbers 4N and 2N appeared on the notebook, and then they were analyzed using the meiosis model.
Finally, stay on 3N.
brush
Yang Xiaotao drew a circle on it with force.
"Yes, that's right, that's it, that's it."
Although the research relies on Xiaowei's induction control of energy, it still needs reasonable scientific basis to explain it.
And now, Yang Xiaotao has found the key to this basis.
With this key, this door can be slowly pushed open.
Although this door opens from the inside to the outside.
Although this theory is derived from results to processes.
Pulling a piece of paper, Yang Xiaotao organized his thoughts.
Since the somatic cells of blood jade are tetraploid, normal C-type corn is diploid.
That is to say, the energy obtained from the blood willow changed the C-type corn from diploid to tetraploid.
As for how it changed, Yang Xiaotao guessed that the energy Xiaowei consumed was itself tetraploid energy.
He was unclear about the changes that had taken place after that. After all, it involved the genetic level, and the knowledge he had learned was blank in this area.
It's just that after this energy acts on this vector, most of it cannot follow cell division during transcription or separation, so when planted, most of them will die and be unable to reproduce.
Only a few can follow the segregation of chromosomes and complete the combination after forming gametes.
This is the new blood jade, a blood jade with four chromosomes.
