[28] Example 1
[29] In spring 2019, hybrid seed production of subgynoecious cucumber Shouyou 60 was conducted in the greenhouse of the breeding base of the Daxihuan Industrial Park, Shouguang, Shandong Province. Separation was implemented at the exit/entrance and air inlet/outlet of a planting area using >40 mesh gauzes, so as to prevent pollinating insects from entering; sufficient base fertilizer was applied and pest and diseases were prevented timely.
[30] The male and female parents were planted on February 10 and February 15, respectively; 1,600 male parents were planted, and 8,000 female parents were planted. The male parents were subjected to the first male flower inducing treatment with 0.3 g/kg silver nitrate solution at the one-leaf-one-bud seedling stage, namely 1,600 male parents were treated with 1.2 g of silver nitrate. A second spray of the same concentration of silver nitrate solution was done after three days.
[31] On March 25, cross pollination started from the 12 leaf of the plant. In order to ensure that male flowers bloomed normally and pollens were viable, the pollination time was selected to be at 8:00 to 12:00 a.m. on sunny days and appropriately delayed on cloudy and rainy days. The temperature was guaranteed to be at 20—28°C, in case that the temperature was too low to disseminate pollens. During the pollination, a male flower with bright yellow petals that bloomed on the day was selected, the petals were removed, and the stigmas of the female flower was aligned for application; after that, the male flower was leaned on the stigmas, and the petals of the female flower were wrapped up and clamped with round grafting clips, so that the male flower was left in the female flower. One male flower only pollinated a female flower, ensuring sufficient pollination. Fruits were pollinated and retained from the 11 leaf of a plant. Three fruits could be successively retained after pollination. All female flowers at node 5 above the retained fruit node were removed; after female flowers at node 6 and above thereabove bloomed, the last fruit was retained after pollination, and all unpollinated female flowers were removed from the plant, ensuring that finally there were four pollinated fruits per plant.
[32] Seeds were harvested since May 10, and the cleaning, sun-drying, and impurity removal of all seeds were completed on June 1. The seed quality and yield were detected.
[33] The specific detection method was as follows:
[34] Harvested Shouyou 60 test group and control group were divided into three groups, respectively. Each group contained 100 seeds, which were sown in 100-hole or 50-hole plug trays and managed according to the conventional seedling raising method. Germination of each group was recorded after 10 days, and germination percentage was calculated. The calculation formula was as follows: germination percentage % = number of germinated seeds/100.
[35] Germination potential: The number of germinated seeds of each group was recorded at 5 days after sowing, during which the germination potential was the percentage of the number of germinated seeds to the number of all seeds. The calculation formula was as follows: germination potential % = number of germinated seeds at 5 days/100. Specific results are shown in Tables 1 and 2.

[38] According to the detection, the seed plumpness was high, the thousand-grain weight reached 29 g, and the seed yield per 724 reached 56 kg/m. According to conventional seed production operations, the thousand-grain weight of the cultivar was 25-27 g, and the yield was 30-40 kg; according to this production technology, the seed quality and yield were increased significantly, the yield per mu was more than 16 kg, and the yield was increased by more than 40%; based on the seed production cost of RMB 400 yuan/kg, the income of seed production was increased by more than 6,400 yuan/mu.
[39] Example 2
[40] In spring 2020, hybrid seed production of subgynoecious cucumber Shouyan 101 was conducted in the greenhouse of the Luocheng base of the Shouguang Vegetable Industry Holding Group Co., Ltd., Shandong Province. Separation was implemented at the exit/entrance and air inlet/outlet of a planting area using >40 mesh gauzes, so as to prevent pollinating insects from entering; sufficient base fertilizer was applied and pest and diseases were prevented timely.
[41] The male and female parents were set on February 11 and February 16, respectively; 800 male parents were planted, and 4,000 female parents were planted.
The male parents were subjected to the first male flower inducing treatment with 0.3 g/kg silver nitrate solution at the one-leaf-one-bud seedling stage of the seedling stage, namely 1,600 male parents were treated with 1.2 g of silver nitrate. A second spray of the same concentration of silver nitrate solution was done after three days.
[42] On March 27, cross pollination started from the 12 leaf of a plant. The pollination was selected to conduct at 8:00 to 12:00 a.m. on sunny days and appropriately delayed on cloudy and rainy days. The temperature of at least 20-25°C could guarantee that the male flower bloomed normally and pollens were viable. During the pollination, a male flower with bright yellow petals that bloomed on the day was selected, the petals were removed, and the stigmas of the female flower was aligned for application; after that, the male flower was leaned on the stigmas, and the petals of the female flower were wrapped up and clamped with round grafting clips, so that the male flower was left in the female flower. One male flower only pollinated a female flower, ensuring sufficient pollination. Fruits were pollinated and retained from the 12% leaf of a plant. Three fruits could be successively retained after pollination. All female flowers at node 6 above the 3™ fruit were removed; after female flowers at node 7 and above thereabove bloomed, the last fruit was retained after pollination, and all unpollinated female flowers were removed from the plant, ensuring that finally there were four stock fruits per plant.
[43] Seeds were harvested since May 12, and the cleaning, sun-drying, and impurity removal of all seeds were completed on June 5. The seed quality and yield were detected.
[44] A specific detection method was as follows:
[45] Harvested Shouyan 101 test group and control group were divided into three groups, respectively. Each group contained 100 seeds, which were sown in 100-hole or 50-hole plug trays and managed according to the conventional seedling raising method. Germination of each group was recorded after 10 days, and germination percentage was calculated. The calculation formula was as follows: germination percentage % = number of germinated seeds/100.
[46] Germination potential: The number of germinated seeds of each group was recorded at 5 days after sowing, during which the germination potential was the percentage of the number of germinated seeds to the number of all seeds. The calculation formula was as follows: germination potential % = number of germinated seeds at 5 days/100.
[47] Detection results are shown in Tables 3 and 4.

Separation was implemented at the exit/entrance and air inlet/outlet of a planting area using >40 mesh gauzes, so as to prevent pollinating insects from entering; sufficient base fertilizer was applied and pest and diseases were prevented timely. [S3] The male and female parents were planted on April 12 and April 17, respectively; 800 male parents were planted, and 4,000 female parents were planted. The male parents were subjected to the first male flower inducing treatment with 0.3 g/kg silver nitrate solution at the one-leaf-one-bud seedling stage of the seedling stage, namely 1,600 male parents were treated with 1.2 g of silver nitrate. A second spray of the same concentration of silver nitrate solution was done after three days. [S4] On May 25, cross pollination started. The pollination was selected to conduct at 7:00 to 12:00 a.m. on sunny days and appropriately delayed on cloudy and rainy days. The temperature was guaranteed to be at 20-30°C to prevent inactivation of pollens due to excessively high temperature. During the pollination, a male flower with bright yellow petals that bloomed on the day was selected, the petals were removed, and the stigmas of the female flower was aligned for application; after that, the male flower was leaned on the stigmas, and the petals of the female flower were wrapped up and clamped with round grafting clips, so that the male flower was left in the female flower. One male flower only pollinated a female flower, ensuring sufficient pollination. Fruits were pollinated and retained from the 13% leaf of a plant. Three fruits could be successively retained after pollination. All female flowers at node 6 above the retained fruit node were removed; after female flowers at node 7 and above thereabove bloomed, the last fruit was retained after pollination, and all unpollinated female flowers were removed from the plant, ensuring that finally there were four pollinated stock fruits per plant.
[55] Seeds were harvested since July 10, and the cleaning, sun-drying, and impurity removal of all seeds were completed on August 1. The seed quality and yield were detected.
[56] A specific detection method was as follows: [S7] Harvested Cuimei No. 1 test group and control group were divided into three groups, respectively. Each group contained 100 seeds, which were sown in 100-hole or 50-hole plug trays and managed according to the conventional seedling raising method. Germination of each group was recorded after 10 days, and germination percentage was calculated. The calculation formula was as follows: germination percentage % = number of germinated seeds/100.
[58] Germination potential: The number of germinated seeds of each group was recorded at 5 days after sowing, during which the germination potential was the percentage of the number of germinated seeds to the number of all seeds. The calculation formula was as follows: germination potential % = number of germinated seeds at 5 days/100. [S9] Detection results are shown in Tables 5 and 6.
