摘要:
全球人口增长和气候变化给粮食安全带来了严峻挑战，预计到2030年，全球的粮食需求将增至116亿t，而传统的育种方式难以满足粮食需求。玉米是全球产量最高的粮食作物，对玉米进行遗传改良非常重要。本文描述了分子育种技术体系的演进历程，分析了分子标记辅助选择、基因组编辑、全基因组关联分析和多组学整合等技术的原理、优势和局限性。通过综述现有的研究成果，系统梳理了上述技术在玉米抗旱、耐盐、抗病及品质改良中的关键作用，并且提出了今后的优化途径，比如开发高保真Cas9变体、构建跨组学知识图谱、整合无人机表型数据优化基因×环境互作模型等。泛基因组解析、单细胞多组学技术及人工智能驱动的数字化育种平台，通过模块化设计与动态环境适配，实现复杂性状的精准调控将是未来玉米遗传改良的方向。本研究为玉米分子育种提供了理论框架与技术路径，对推动作物遗传改良进入可预测设计新阶段具有参考价值。
