연초(Nicotiana tabacum L.) 세대촉진에 관한 연구 I. 황색종 연초품종의 세대촉진

STUDIES ON ACCELERATING GENERATION OF TOBACCO (MCOTIAWA TABACUM L.) UTILIZING THE PHYTOTRON

For shortening the tobacco breeding cycle, seedlings with 6, 8 and II leaves of 2 flue.cured tobacco varieties, day. neutral type and photoperiod-sensitive type, were grown in controlled-environment room (CER), programmed for temperature of $18^{\circ}C$ and 8.hour day period of 30 klux, for 20, 30 and 40 days. All of plants of day.neutral type variety treated in CER, regardless of seedling stage and duration, flowered earlier than the untreated plants. In the 6.leaf seedlings stage of photoperiod-sensitive type variety, plants treated for 20 and 30 days in CER did not accelerate the flowering. the tobacco plants, treated with low temperature for 20 days at 8.leaf seedling stage, flowered earlier in comparison with. the other treatment.
