Space seedlings Shenzhen thriving tomato anti-cancer substances increased by 4 times

A group of seed seeds and seedlings that have been operating in space for 18 days along with the 20th China's returning science and technology experimental satellites were previously settled in Shenzhen. Such as large eggs, eggplant, Italian soilless lettuce, and eggplant weighing 3 pounds... Studies have shown that the content of lycopene, the anti-cancer substance contained in tomatoes in “space”, has increased three to four times year-on-year, attracting Over 10,000 tourists, including 2,000 Hong Kong visitors, came to visit and purchase. Jin Xing, an associate researcher at Shenzhen Agricultural Science and Vegetable Technology Co., Ltd., which is responsible for the cultivation of space crops, disclosed to Hong Kong Wen Wei Po that carrying the seeds at a price of 400 to 500 yuan per gram had carried more than 200 grams of seedlings. According to Venus, "space" tomatoes are twice as large as ordinary tomatoes, each weighing about 300 grams. According to the same proportion, its anti-cancer lycopene is 3 to 4 times higher than ordinary tomatoes, so eating a "space" tomato ratio Eating lycopene up to 8 times that of an ordinary tomato can effectively reduce the risk of heart disease and certain cancers. He said: "In the future, lycopene will be extracted from tomatoes, and the development of cancer-resistant extended products, such as health drinks, will cost 40% less than extraction from unmodified tomatoes." Venus said: "Space seedlings need to go through 4 Only when nurturing can be put into production, Shenzhen can cultivate 2 to 3 generations in 1 year, and it is expected that this batch of space seedlings can be put into the market next year.Some space-growing varieties can be purchased in small quantities at the base, such as space cucumbers for only 3 to 5 yuan per catty. Venus said that just two weeks after its opening, the Shenzhen Space Breeding Base attracted more than 10,000 visitors including 2,000 Hong Kong tourists. "We will prepare schools and societies in Hong Kong to promote space cultivation in the future. We hope that more students and tourists from Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan will visit here." The Space Breeding Base was established in cooperation with the Shenzhen Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology and the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. It consists of 420,000 square meters of biomedical science park and 649 acres of Nongke Pingshan base. Space breeding, also known as space breeding, is a combination of aerospace, genetics, radiation, breeding and other interdisciplinary high-tech. Its characteristics are: high frequency of mutation, a large range of variation, useful mutations, and strong stability. The use of space technology to develop agriculture is one of the cutting-edge science and technology in today's world of agriculture.
