Abstract

A 'White UFO' is a large-sized flower with a semi double black disk. It was bred between 'Himalaya' as a mother plan t, an d 'Won der Kin g' as a father plan t, the 89 seeds were obtained from 2004. The selected plant from seed had been proliferated in the apical meristem culture and they were planted in the field to observe growth and flowering for 3 years. Flower quality and yield ability were recognized sufficiently competitive. As a result, in 2007, named as 'White UFO', applied for registration with the Korea Seed & Variety Service, and registered in 2009. The in tern al an d extern al ray flower was in white color (RHS 155B) and 13 cm diameter as a large variety. The central part of the inflorescence was black and a peduncle flower stalk was green. Flower height was 60 cm, 5 cm longer than that of 'White Candy', a similar variety, delivering a stronger marketability. The longevity of cut flower was 12.5 days, similar to that of a similar variety.

'White UFO'는 모본을 'Himalaya'로, 부본을 'Wonder King'으로 2004년에 교배하여 2007년까지 포장에 심어 관찰하면서 우수 개체를 선발하였다. 선발된 개체는 생장점 배양으로 증식하여 포장에 심어 3년 동안 생장을 조사하였다. 그 결과 품질과 수량성 등이 경쟁력이 있다고 인정되어 2007년에 'White UFO'로 명명하고 국립종자원에 출원하여 2009년에 등록하였다. 특성은 내부와 외부설상화는 백색(RHS 155B)이고, 직경은 13cm로 대형종이다. 화심은 검은색이며 화경은 녹색이며 화경장은 60cm로 대조 품종인 'White Candy' 보다 5cm 더 길어 상품성이 있다. 절화수명은 12.5일로 대조품종과 비슷하다.
