Ang proyekto sa pagpaparami ng hibiscus ay naglalabas ng mga bagong uri at mga seleksyon

Ang isang proyekto sa pag-aanak ay umuusad sa mga bagong nabuong uri at seleksyon ng hibiscus sa pamamagitan ng pagpopondo at suporta ng Philippine Council for Agriculture, Aquatic and Natural Resources Research and Development ng Department of Science and Technology (DOST-PCAARRD).

Bagama’t ang internasyonal na merkado ay nag-aalok ng mga imported na iba’t ibang kulay, madalas itong hindi namumulaklak sa ilalim ng tropikal na kondisyon ng Pilipinas.

Ang proyekto, “Development of New Hibiscus rosa-sinensis Varieties through Conventional Hybridization and Embryo Rescue,” ay naglalayong punan ang puwang na ito sa pamamagitan ng pagbuo ng nobela at locally adapted hibiscus varieties sa ilalim ng pamumuno ni Dr. Maria Luisa D. Guevarra ng Institute of Plant Breeding ng Unibersidad ng Pilipinas Los Baños (IPB-UPLB).

Sa isang taunang pagrepaso sa proyekto at pagbisita sa field monitoring, ibinahagi ni Dr. Guevarra na ang kanilang ikatlo at huling taon ng pagpapatupad ay humantong sa pagbuo ng 64 na bagong garden-type hybrids sa pamamagitan ng pagtawid sa local garden-type hibiscus sa mga piling internasyonal na varieties.

Limang bagong promising hybrids ang napili ng team at pinapalaganap para sa kanilang pagpaparehistro sa Germplasm and Technology Release and Registered Office (GTRRO) ng IPB-UPLB.

Matagumpay din na nakagawa ang koponan ng 22 seedlings sa pamamagitan ng pagtawid sa maliliit at compact na local-bred na varieties na may maraming kulay na banyagang varieties. Isang maliit na uri ang isinumite sa GTRRO para sa pagpaparehistro, habang ang dalawang potensyal na hybrid ay sumasailalim sa karagdagang paglalarawan at pagsusuri.

Samantala, ang pagtawid ng dalawang species (H. tiliaceus x H. rosa-sinensis) ay nagbunga ng 47 interspecific seedlings at isang seedling mula sa reciprocal cross nito (H. rosa-sinensis x H. tiliaceus).

Breeding experts, Mr. Reynold B. Pimentel from Del Monte Philippines, Inc. and Mr. Fernando B. Aurigue from the Philippine Nuclear Research Institute (PNRI) of DOST, served as Science and Technology (S&T) Consultants and evaluated the project’s accomplishments.

IPB Director Fe M. dela Cueva, Project Consultant Agripina O. Rasco, and the IPB project team also attended the review, along with key DOST-PCAARRD staff led by Crops Research Division (CRD) Program Monitoring and Evaluation (PME) Section Head Sharie Al-Faiha A. Lubang and ISP Manager for Ornamental Plants Kimberly Zarah B. Locsin.#
