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.
Based on status quo of Chinese water resources, it is necessary to im-prove comprehensive agricultural productivity, establish water-saving, highly-efficient and pol ution-control modern agriculture, and to enhance irrigation efficiency and profits with the precondition of unchanged agricultural water amount. In the re-search, agricultural irrigation technologies at home and abroad were summarized in order to provide references for agricultural production.
