Chapter 60: The Anxiety of the God-Given Seed
A man moves to live, and a tree moves to die.
The strains of the Xuncao God-given Seed are currently divided into 81 plants, and according to the law, the next strain will be 243 plants, and the next time it will be 739 plants...... At this rate, it is difficult to imagine how large it will grow in the future.
Where should the second God-given seed be sown? What scale will it grow into in the future?
Nowadays, the common life plant is still young, move it, the loss is not big, the future growth and growth, it can not be easily moved, move once will hurt the muscles and bones, a year and a half to recover.
The Iron Knife Mountain Lord said: "Banbu, don't worry, Chijian County is a plain, and the god-given seed of the Chijian County Lord occupies a lonely mountain, much lower and smaller than your Li Zhu Peak. I've watched the development of your seed, and it's good to see if you can fill the south side in the future. ”
Madara said: "Some time ago, I harvested another god-given seed, which is currently being planted, and it is estimated that it will be sown in the spring of next year, and I don't know where it should be planted." ”
"The northeast side, or the northwest side, can be, depending on what kind of species, whether it is drought tolerant, light or shade, heat or ......?" The Iron Knife Mountain Lord is experienced, and he talked eloquently, and halfway through his words, he suddenly paused.
There was silence.
Flame Cluster Banmao was the first to break the silence and asked tentatively, "Banbu, you just said that some time ago, you got another God-given seed?" ”
"Yes." Banbu moved his tentacles, and he didn't sell Guanzi, and said directly: "I gave the pollen of the golden thread bamboo to the spotted bamboo under the mountain, and the cross-pollination was successful, and a new hybrid bamboo species was obtained, and a god-given seed was unexpectedly harvested." ”
"A new hybrid between Bamboos and Bamboos?" The Iron Knife Mountain Lord's tone became solemn and asked, "Banbu, you have checked the life qi in the seed, it can't be a dead embryo, right?" ”
Madara said: "I have checked it very carefully, and the germ in the seed has a vigorous life qi, no problem. ”
The Iron Knife Mountain Lord still shook his tentacles and said, "Banbu, you are still too reckless, not all god-given seeds are useful, and they may ....... ”
The owner of Iron Knife Mountain is a veteran of planting, and he immediately thought of various problems.
The most serious thing is the appearance of "dead embryos", that is, pollination failures but the seeds are still mature, and the mental power can check whether the seeds are "dead embryos", which has been confirmed to be not.
The second and most perfect case of hybrid varieties is similar to that of hybrid rice. Hybrid rice is obtained by crossing barnyard and natural rice, and the hybrid rice grows better than both barnyard and natural rice, with more seeds, larger and fuller particles, and is superior to the mother plant in all aspects. The only problem is that the seeds of hybrid rice are sown, and the developed plants are not capable of reproducing.
There is a third case for a hybrid breed, which is to breed a completely new breed that can reproduce naturally and is genetically superior to the mother.
If you change to other kinds of plants, as long as it is not the first case, it is acceptable.
But bamboo is a special plant variety, and there is a serious problem: that is, the flowering and seeding cycle.
At present, it is not 100% certain that the golden thread bamboo will bloom and produce seeds once a year, but it is certain that the lifespan of the spotted bamboo is 40 years, that is to say, if the seeds of the spotted bamboo are bred into a life seed, it will only bloom and produce seeds once every 40 years or so.
How many years is the flowering and seeding cycle of the new bamboo species crossed between the golden thread bamboo and the spotted bamboo? Not sure.
It may be shorter than the 40-year cycle, or it may become longer, something uncertain.
What if the flowering cycle of this god-given seed of bamboo, which was bred by the spotted cloth, is 50 or even 100 years? That's a big loss, it's better to choose ordinary plant seeds as a lifeline.
The best solution is to first cross those golden bamboos and spotted bamboos to obtain ordinary seeds and sow them, and then they can get intuitive and accurate conclusions when they grow.
After all, it is a god-given seed, and the flowering cycle is within 5 years, which is acceptable, and more than 5 years, you have to consider it carefully. The lifespan of the Red Cockroach tribal warrior is limited, and they are afraid that they will not wait for the day when they bloom and bear seeds, and they will pass the vigorous adolescence of life.
Flame Cluster Banmao asked, "Iron Knife Mountain Lord, after all, it is a god-given seed favored by the true god of nature, it won't be bad, right?" ”
The Lord of Iron Knife Mountain pondered for a long time and agreed: "If Banbu can obtain two god-given seeds, he must be exceptionally favored by the true gods of nature, and it should not be bad. ”
Kuro-san asked, "Banbu, is it possible that if two plants of similar varieties are pollinated with each other, the seeds they condense may give birth to God-given seeds?" ”
The fundamental principle of the birth of Force plants in nature is a cosmic problem that human science and technology have not been able to solve, how can it be so simple.
Banbu shook his tentacles and said, "It's hard to say, I don't know." ”
The Lord of Iron Knife Mountain said: "I heard the Lord of Chijian County mention that after successful cross-breeding, the seeds of plants born will be stronger, and the possibility of God-given seeds will appear. Squeak, the true God of nature favors the strong seeds, preferring to turn them into God-given seeds. ”
There is some truth to this, but it is not right to insist on the true God of nature.
Banbu was a little speechless, and while the natural gods were behind all kinds of incomprehensible strange phenomena, they seriously limited the exploration of scientific truth by the intelligent life on this planet!
Occasionally, Flame Cluster Spotted Grass was clever and took the opportunity to complain: "There is only one Iron Knife Tree species in the Iron Knife Mountain Range. ”
Kuro-san complained, "The varieties of the Iron Knife Tree are too rare, and there are only 6 varieties in my inheritance memory, each of which is particularly rare. ”
After surviving in the Iron Knife Mountain Range and becoming a high-level warrior, the Metropolis was forced by the Lord of Iron Knife Mountain to operate an Iron Knife Forest in his territory.
The purpose of this practice is very simple, large-scale planting, under the huge base, genetic mutation, the probability of the birth of a new variety of iron knife tree will increase. Rare tree species such as the Iron Knife Tree only need to give birth to a new variety to reap endless benefits.
"So you should work harder and plant as many iron trees as possible." The Lord of Iron Knife Mountain was not annoyed by the complaints of Flame Cluster Banmao and Hei Sang, fanned his wings, and urged: "Okay, everyone go down the mountain and go to work, Banbu, Hei Sang, you two little guys are not allowed to be lazy, do what you can do, be smart, move quickly, and don't let the warriors of other mountain ranges look down on you." ”
……
The high-level warrior of the red cockroach tribe, the forelimbs and toes and claws are two bendable segments, full of fine and sharp serrations, which can be used as a saw when opened, and easily saws off the roots of large trees; It can be used as scissors to easily cut off large branches; It can also be used as a plough to loosen the soil, turn the soil, and cut off all kinds of weeds and rhizomes by the way.
Banbu and Kuro-san also dragged a large silk bag, burying a few seeds at intervals. Bloodthorn seeds germinate in the fall, and the seedlings are cold and drought tolerant, and do not need to be managed, they can survive the cold winter on their own, and wait for the following spring to grow wildly.
Hundreds of high-level warriors worked together with high efficiency, and in just two days, they cleared a defensive belt around the foot of Li Zhufeng Mountain, and completed the sowing.
The warriors from the other mountain ranges who came to help dispersed one after another, and the warriors of Iron Knife Peak stayed, helping Wind Chime clear a large open space suitable for cultivation in the lower layer of the peak. The requirements of the owner of Iron Knife Mountain for wind chimes are to plant bamboo, iron knife trees or other plants, but they must not be planted.
In the end, the other warriors of Iron Knife Peak dispersed, and the Lord of Iron Knife Mountain stayed in Li Zhu Peak to help protect the seeds given by the gods, waiting for the grass seeds to ripen.
