Abstract：Since 2000，the global garlic industry and import-export trades have witnessed profound transformations．To comprehensively and objectively understand the current development status of the global and Chinese garlic industries as well as the general situation of their international trade，this study analyzed data on garlic harvested area，production，yield，and import-export trade in China and worldwide，based on statistics released by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations（FAO），the National Bureau of Statistics of China（NBSC），and China Customs，combined with literature reports．The results show that Asia is the most critical garlic-producing region globally in terms of both harvested area and production，with China，India，and Bangladesh ranking among the top three in the world．China has long maintained the world’s largest harvested area and production，and its yield ranks fourth globally，approximately 50% of Kuwait’s yield-the highest level in the world ．Garlic is one of the most actively traded agricultural products internationally．In 2022，the global import volume of garlic amounted to around 2.35 million tons，valued at nearly 3 billion US dollars，while the export volume reached 2.63 million tons，valued at over 2.7 billion US dollars. Indonesia is the world’s largest garlic importer，with an import volume of 566 200 tons in 2022， accounting for 24.22% of the global total，and a value of 598 million US dollars，representing 20.10% of the total import value．China is the world’s largest garlic exporter. In 2022，China’s garlic export volume reached 2 035 900 tons，accounting for 77.42% of the global total，with an export value of 1 796 million US dollars，constituting 64.79% of the global export value．Over the past decade，China’s average international market share in garlic export volume has slightly decreased to 79.46%，while its average international market share in export value has increased to 68.78%．Spain is a country where both the average international market shares in garlic export volume and value have increased by more than 2%．In 2023，Chinese mainland garlic exports reached over 140 trading partners，and Southeast Asian countries were the main destinations，while exports to developed countries remained relatively limited．Shandong，Jiangsu，and Henan are the top three provinces in China ’s garlic exports，with their cumulative export volume and value accounting for over 92%．Despite China’s indisputable dominance in garlic harvested area，production，and export trade on the global stage， several major challenges constrain the healthy and sustainable development of the industry．In response to these challenges，this paper proposes suggestions for the development of China’s garlic industry．

The Yangtze Delta region is one of the major producing areas of welsh onion in China．In order to comprehensively understand the current situation of local welsh onion production and better serve the production,education and research of welsh onion,we conducted a survey on the groups of welsh onion growers,purchasers,processors and seed dealers through on-site visits,telephone inquiries and questionnaires．The industrial distribution,planting varieties,seedling harvesting,business entities,production efficiency and existing problems of welsh onion in the Yangtze Delta region from 2018 to 2023 were investigated and analyzed．This paper summarizes the problems existing in the welsh onion industry,such as‘bottleneck’issue in seed industry,difficulty in ensuring of quality seedlings,low degree of mechanization,uneven quality of products,and the lack of production supporting facilities．In order to provide reference for the development of welsh onion industry in the Yangtze River Delta region,some countermeasures are put forward,such as domestic substitution of main varieties,specialized seedling raising,mechanized production,standardized production technology system,and promotion of planting base construction．

Global freshwater resources are exhibiting a progressive decline,with drought posing a significant threat to crop production．Tomato（Solanum lycopersicum）,a water-demanding and nutrient-demanding crop,experiences severe developmental and yield constraints under drought stress．Genetic improvement for drought tolerance is therefore critical to ensure stable and high-yielding tomato production．In this study,the membership function method was used to comprehensively evaluate the drought tolerance of 44 globally representative Solanum pimpinellifolium germplasms collected at the germination stage．Results demonstrated that the wild Solanum pimpinellifolium exhibits markedly superior drought tolerance compared to cultivated varieties．Among the evaluated germplasms,30 germplasms were identified as drought-tolerant,with 9 germplasms displaying exceptional tolerance．Notably,these 9 germplasms maintained 100% relative germination rates under the condition of 15% PEG-6000 concentration．Phylogenetic tree construction and geographical origin analysis further revealed that drought-sensitive germplasms clustered more closely in genetic relatedness compared to drought-tolerant counterparts．Their geographic origins were also more concentrated in terms of latitude and altitude,suggesting that indicating that drought tolerance is an adaptive trait gradually evolved in the process of adapting to various wild environments．These findings provide a foundation for elucidating drought tolerance mechanisms and advancing genetic enhancement in cultivated tomato．

To address the issue of short cultivation distances in north-south ridge orientation for tomato production in solar greenhouses,which is not conducive to mechanized operations,a comparative experiment was conducted in a solar greenhouse in Fangshan,Beijing．The experiment compared north-south and east-west ridge orientations for overwintering tomato cultivation,with the premise that east-west ridge orientation allows for mechanized operations．Four cultivation modes were designed：CK（north-south ridge orientation,row spacing of 40 cm,plant spacing of 40 cm）,T1（east-west ridge orientation,row spacing of 40 cm,plant spacing of 35 cm）,T2（east-west ridge orientation,row spacing of 40 cm,plant spacing of 37 cm）,and T3（east-west ridge orientation,row spacing of 40 cm,plant spacing of 40 cm）,with planting densities of 2 381,2 539,2 402,and 2 222 plants per 667 m²,respectively．The results showed that when the tomato planting density was close to 2 400 plants per 667 m²,there were no significant differences in plant height,stem diameter,single fruit weight,number of fruits per plant,yield per plant,and yield per 667 m² between the east-west ridge orientation（T2）and the north-south ridge orientation（CK）at 37,44,and 51 days after planting．Within the planting density range of 2 222 to 2 539 plants per 667 m²,there were no significant differences in single fruit weight,yield per plant,and yield per 667 m² among the east-west ridge orientation treatments（T1,T2,T3）,although there was an upward trend with increasing planting density．When the planting density in the east-west ridge orientation was 2 539 plants per 667 m²（T1）,plant height,stem diameter,maximum leaf area,and number of leaves showed a decreasing trend compared to other treatments．Therefore,the east-west ridge orientation cultivation mode can be adopted for overwintering tomato production in solar greenhouses,ensuring both yield and mechanized production．

Tomato is one of the three major traded vegetables globally and holds a significant position in international vegetable trade．Tomato virus disease is one of the common and severely damaging diseases in tomato production，and there is no cure once the plant is infected．Toma to chlorosis virus（ToCV）is transmitted by whitefl y vectors of the family Aleyrodidae in a semi-persistent，non-circulative manner．Tomato plants infected with ToCV exhibit symptoms such as leaf yellowing，interveinal chlorosis，leaf margin curling，and growth retardation，severely impacting tomato yield and quality．This article reviews the recent research progress on ToCV，discussing its distribution characteristics，host range，classifi cation and particle properties，transmission routes and characteristics，genome st ructure and function，common detection methods，and control measures．Additionally，it proposes some urgent issues to be addressed in ToCV research，aiming to provide a reference for future studies on ToCV．

Tuta absoluta,a globally invasive pest,severely impacts tomato production．To clarify the population dynamics of this pest in tomato fields in Beijing and to screen effective sex attractants formulations for managing T. absoluta,we monitored the population dynamics of T. absoluta across three areas in Beijing：Pinggu,Changping,and Huairou by using the sex lure monitoring method．Additionally,the trapping effects of different ratios of two sex pheromone components and different doses of single principal component on T. absoluta were also evaluated in the field．The results of population dynamics monitoring indicated that T. absoluta was present at all monitoring sites across the three areas,with consistent patterns. From the initial stages of tomato planting until early to mid May,the number of adult moths was relatively low．However,from late May until the pulling of tomato seedlings,the number of adult moths sharply increased and remained consistently high．The results of the sex attractants screening indicated that varying ratios of two sex pheromone components,（3E,8Z,11Z）-tetradecyltrimene-1-acetate（TDTA）and（3E,8Z）-tetradecdiene-1-acetate（TDDA）（85∶15,90∶10,95∶5,and 100∶0）,all effectively trapped male adult moths of T. absoluta,with an average monthly trap count exceeding 400．In addition,1.8 mg of TDTA per lure attracted the largest number of adult moths,and it slightly higher than the numbers of 0.2 mg and 0.6 mg per lure．Except for greenhouse No.3,where the number of male adult moths captured by the 1.8 mg of TDTA per lure was significantly highly than that of the 0.6 mg of TDTA per lure,no statistically significant difference was observed．These findings offer valuable insights for monitoring and early warning systems against T. absoluta in Beijing,as well as for the development of sex attractants.

Wax gourd plays an important role in ensuring the stable supply of melon crops in China and protecting the interests of growers,and breeding new varieties to meet market demand is top priority for wax gourd breeders．The amended Seed Law of the People’s Republic of China strengthened the protection of wax gourd breeders’rights in all aspects and the encouragement to initiate original innovation of plant breeding.The pressure on the current DUS system stems from multiple issues.First of all,some plant breeders have low awareness of plant breeders’rights．Secondly,there is an urgent requirement to partly revise guidelines for the conduct of tests for distictness,uniformity and stability of wax gourd．Thirdly,the current DUS testing is till largely dependent upon a set of morphological traits．With the development of new plant breeding techniques,establishing a collection of varieties of common knowledge,construction of DNA fingerprinting database and its application in wax gourd DUS test is required.Lastly,the deficiencies in the testing facility conditions for DUS testing.There are several actions that Chinese authority could take to solve the problems described above．Firstly,the plant variety protection office should take measures to facilitate the popularization of plant variety protection．Secondly,leading wax gourd breeders should collaborate with DUS examiners from the centralized testing center to revise the testing guideline．Finally,Chinese government should provide adequate funding to facilitate DUS testing efficiencies.In order to promote the effective utilization of wax gourd germplasm resources and the development of wax gourd industry,DUS testing should be adjustable for the application of new plant breeding techniques in plant breeding and to meet the development of seed industry．

Anthocyanins，a class of polyphenolic pigments widely present in the plant kingdom，are typically absent in tomato（Solanum lycopersicum L.）fruits ．Genetic engineering and other breeding methods can be employed to develop anthocyanin-enriched tomato varieties．In recent years，signifi cant advancements had been made in the genetics and regulation of tomato anthocyanins．This paper reviews the biosynthetic pathway of tomato anthocyanins，the genetic localization of anthocyanin-related genes in plants，and the progress in genes editing tomato anthocyanin genes．These studies further elucidate the mechanisms of synthesis and regulation of tomato anthocyanins，providing theoretical support and reference for future research and innovation aimed at enhancing tomato quality through the utilization of anthocyanins．

Abstract：Edible mushroom is a green and healthy industry characterized by a long industrial chain，significant development potential and strong income-generating effects，which is a vital force for adopting an all-encompassing approach to food，an effective way to develop recycling agriculture，and an crucial breakthrough to achieve the industrialized and intelligent agriculture．By analyzing development scale， variety and regional layout，industrialized production，scientifi c and technological support system and brand building，we summarize the advantages and potentials of Chongqing edible mushroom industry in terms of resource endowment，development momentum and market demand．Based on the perspective of high-quality development of the industry，the study delves into existing challenges，including the relatively low industrial level，incomplete industrial chain，insufficient scientific and technological support，and weak mechanisms linking farmers to the industry’s benefi ts．To address these issues，the strategic objective of building a largescale， multi-billion yuan edible mushroom industry chain in Chongqing is proposed．Specifi c recommendations are outlined in three key areas：prioritizing strategic planning to drive leapfrog industrial development；promoting integrated development across the entire value chain to enhance industrial capacity；strengthening technological empowerment to overcome key industrial bottlenecks．

In order to clarify the effects of different tree species on the growth and development of Phallus rubrovolvatus,the effects of different amounts of sawdust on the mycelial growth and fruiting of Phallus rubrovolvatus were discussed by measuring the nutritional components of sawdust of different tree species．The correlation analysis was used to evaluate the correlation between the physical and chemical properties of sawdust and the growth and yield of Phallus rubrovolvatus．The results showed that walnut wood and Paper Mulberry wood had higher water-holding capacity after being crushed．The leaching solutions of Betula luminifera wood,Paper Mulberry wood,Quercus glauca wood,Eucommia ulmoides wood promote the growth of mycelium of Phallus rubrovolvatus．Under pure sawdust cultivation conditions,the nitrogen content of sawdust is significantly positively correlated with the growth rate of mycelium,while the nitrogen content and lignin content are significantly negatively correlated．Chitin content was positively correlated with mushroom yield．The hardwood and Cyclobalanopsis glauca showed higher fruiting yield．
