CCTV News: Strengthening scientific and technological innovation in the flower industry is a key link in coordinating the systematic governance of mountains, rivers, forests, fields, lakes, grasslands and sands. Under the skillful hands of scientific researchers, what changes are happening to flowers?

In the greenhouse of the Institute of Vegetable and Flowers, the reporter saw that artificially cultivated Paphiolans competed to open. Due to environmental damage and over-digging, Paphiolenum has become one of the most endangered species in the world. In 2021, all the genus Paphiolanthus was included in the "National Key Protected Wild Plants", and most of the species are first-class protected plants.
In order to protect and utilize Paphlegm resources, scientific researchers have achieved artificial breeding of Paphlegm through sterile seed sowing and tissue culture rapid breeding.

Scientific researchers told reporters that part of the Paphiolans they bred is used for field return. At present, field return has been successfully carried out in Mulun, Guangxi, Maolan, Guizhou and other places to help the local ecological environment restoration; while the other part is used to hybridize new varieties to promote the sustainable development of the Paphiolans industry.
Hydrangea is called the "chameleon" among plants. In the experimental greenhouse of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, pink flowers will turn into blue rare colors after being regulated by scientific researchers, which is deeply loved by consumers.

Increase the colors of flowers, extend the flowering period, bloom regularly, and save the endangered danger. The "carving" of science and technology makes the "flower economy" longer and more diverse, opening up more space for the development of the flower industry. According to the "Guiding Opinions on Promoting the High-Quality Development of the Flower Industry" jointly issued by the State Forestry and Grassland Administration and the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, by this year, my country's flower seed industry innovation system has been basically established, the flower science and technology innovation capabilities have been greatly improved, and the pattern of high-quality development of the flower industry has been basically formed.
