Tomato（Solanum lycopersicum L.）resistance to drought is controlled by many microeffect locus and hundreds genes affecting drought morphology and physiological response．It is helpful to expound tomato drought resistance molecule mechanism and develop molecule marker assisted selection for accelerating the process of breeding new tomato varieties with drought resistance．This paper reviewed the research progress made in studying tomato drought resistance molecule mechanism，changes in tomato morphological characteristics under drought condition，and drought resistance breeding．The paper laid emphasis on illustrating the research progress in tomato drought resistant gene engineering，so as to further applying modern biological technology to provide method and thoughts for plant drought resistance gene engineering improvement and molecule marker assisted selection and breeding．

This study was conducted in solar greenhouse where cucumber was cultivated in winter-spring
season．During cotyledon flattened period to the second leaf starting flattened，cucumber seedlings was treated
with supplementary light at different time．During experiment period heat preservation quilt was uncovered from
8：40-16：00 in solar greenhouse．The results showed that compared with the contrast without supplementary
light，supplementary light treatment at T（6：40-9：40），T（13：00-16：00） and T（15：00-18：00）
could significantly increase seedling stem diameter，healthy seedling index，leaf area，contents of chlorophyll，
carotene，soluble sugar，starch，etc．and seedling dry weights of underground，over ground parts and whole
plant．To sum up，the effects of supplementary light by the above 3 treatments are obviously superior than that of
T（8：40-11：40） and the contrast．These 3 treatments are in favor of cultivating healthy seedlings．The effects
of these 3 treatments are basically the same．

Root-knot nematode disease is one of the important tomato soil-borne diseases．Breeding varieties
with root-knot nematode resistance is an effective control method to deal with this disease．But at present，Mi-1
the only gene transferred to tomato culture with resistance to root-knot nematode loses its resistance when the soil
temperature is over 28 ℃．In this study，wild tomato accession LA2157 with heat-stable resistance to root-knot
nematode was used．According to the sequence information of Mi-1，we carried out homologous cloning on Mi-9
gene with heat-stable resistance to root-knot nematode and gained 2 candidate gene segments from LA2157．The
candidate gene was ligated with the overexpression vector pBI121 by In-Fusion cloning technique．Electrophoresis
and sequencing analysis proved that the recombinant vectors of the candidate gene were constructed．

Changyang mountainous area is the main occurrence area for clubroot disease in Hubei
mountainous region. Taking 100 radish germplasm resources as material，this paper carried out clubroot resistance
identification during adult stage，and during seedling stage after artificial inoculation in the fields of Changyang
Hujiaping and Huoshaoping. According to the result of comprehensive resistance identification of adult and seedling
stages，13 resistant germplasm resources containing 8 white radishes（‘Fuyuan No.1’，‘Hualyu No.8’，
‘Chongqingbingtangyuanbai’，‘Chunbulao’，‘Yutangchun’，‘Hanbaiyu’，‘Chunyu’and‘Duanye No.13’），
3 red radishes（‘Hongguan’，‘Nanjinghong’and‘Dahongpao’）and 2 green radishes（‘Guantangqing’and‘Deri
No.2’）were screened out. In addition，155 radish hybrid combinations were identified in Changyang Huoshaoping
clubroot disease nursery and 3 good combinations resistant to clubroot were screened out.

The mother-plant-cutting technology（MPC）applied during chufa tillering stage in fields have
been applied and extended in chufa producing areas in Zhejiang Province. The detailed procedure is when the tiller
number reached 6-7 plants，cut all leafy stems of mother plant above the ground by a sickle digging into 1-5 cm
under the soil surface. The cut debris was moved out from the fields. Compared with the mother-plant uncut plant，
the stem blight rate of mother-plant-cutting plant was reduced by 4.6-7.4 percentage point，and the disease index
（DI）was reduced by 2.2-3.9. The number of inefficient tiller decreased by 2.3-7.5 plant per m². Besides，the
yield was increased by 15.5%-20.9%，and the number of corm increased by 17.0-25.2 per m2. Mother-plantcutting
technology is a simple and high efficient innovative technology for chufa pathogen reduction and yield
increase.

Taking cucumber‘Biqiu’and tomato‘Zhongza No.9’as experimental materia，this paper
studied the effect of different concentrations of shenqinmycin（10，50，100，125，175 mg·L^-1），amino acid
liquid（50，333，833，1 250，2 000 mg·L^-1） and mixed liquid with suitable concentration on cucumber and
tomato seed germination and embryo growth．The results showed that the amino acid liquid and shenqinmycin
with suitable concentration could significantly improve the germination potential，germination index，vigor
index of tomato and cucumber seeds， and promote significantly the growth of radicle and hypocotyl．The optimal
concentration for tomato seed germination was 50 mg·L^-1 amino acid liquid，10 mg·L^-1 shenqinmycin．
The optimal concentration for cucumber seed germination was 333 mg·L^-1 amino acid liquid，50 mg·L^-1
shenqinmycin．The optimal concentration for tomato and cucumber growth of radicle and hypocotyl were 333
mg·L^-1 amino acid liquid and 50 mg·L^-1 shenqinmycin．Shenqinmycin has better effect on promoting seed
germination of these 2 vegetable varieties than amino acid liquid．Furthermore，its promoting effect on root
growth of cucumber was superior than that of amino acid liquid．While，amino acid liquid had a better effect on
stimulating tomato root growth．

To optimize the testing methods and grading standards for quantitative characteristics of Okra，this
experiment took 35 Okra varieties as research objective；observed and compared 2 quantitative characteristics，
including plant height and main stem diameter by different measuring methods；and graded 12 quantitative traits
by the least significant difference method. The results indicated that considering the consistency of within one test
area and convenience for operation，natural plant height and diameter of middle main stem should be measured.
Based on the existing material，we classified the depths of crack fluting leaves into 9 grades，and unequal grading
was suitable for measuring the length of matured fruits.

This paper carried out identification on pathogen of rhizome rot disease in ginger by morphological
observation，pathogenicity test and sequence analysis；and studied the antifungal activity of chitosan against
ginger rhizome rot disease by mycelium growth rate method，in vivo biospy and field experiment. The results
showed that the pathogen of ginger rot disease was identified as Pythium myriotylum，Pythium spinosum and
Pythium sylvaticum，the mycelial growth of those pathogens were restrained by chitosan and the EC₅₀ values were
422.711 2，401.699 5，446.910 7 μg·mL^-1，respectively. Micrography observation showed，while inoculated
in the substrate with chitosan，the mycelia would abnormally grow，like：bulging，contorting，having more
branches，and vacuolation appearing inside of mycelia. These results showed that chitosan could obviously inhibit
the occurrence of rhizome rot disease in ginger. The results of field control experiment showed that chitosan could
significantly prevent the occurrence of rhizome rot disease in ginger，and consequently improve the ginger yield.
