- "How to Breed Plants, As told by Students" is one of many 4-6 minute short films funded by the UC Global Food Initiative (GFI) to teach the public and the UC community about sustainable agriculture. Unlike most educational videos produced by the UC system, these films are student directed. Our top priority is to educate viewers about sustainable agricultural practices and how adopting these practices could lead to real positive change. We do this by introducing the basic principles of a sustainable agricultural practice and demonstrating how this practice has been adopted by a student community. Through this model of showing by doing, we hope to inspire our viewers to be optimistic and proactive about making global food security a reality.
This particular the video about an on-going pepper breeding project that was started 5 years ago by graduate student Jorge Berny on the UCD Student Organic Farm. Our ultimate goal is to breed a new pepper variety, the Jalapeno Popper, which is locally adapted to the growing conditions of an organic farming system. We hope to demonstrate that plant breeding is participatory: students and farmers alike can develop new varieties to suit their needs, not just seed companies. Improving a crop’s adaptation to specific growing environments is an essential part of sustainable agriculture: the better a plant variety grows in a particular farming system, the fewer inputs (i.e. fertilizer, pesticides, water, etc.) are needed to maintain high crop yields.
My local library has a seed bank. Their rule is that if you take from it, the plants have to be planted in our local soil, and you have to bring back some of the seeds from the successful plants.
This has allowed our community to have a supply of seeds that grow well in our area... and with us having particularly harsh winters, this is absolutely wonderful.
With commercially bought seeds, many of the plants come REALLY close to the final frost dates. With the library seeds, most everything is either an early harvest or is extremely frost resistant.

I'm here because it's five am and I always wanted to know how people breeded plants and stuff and it's pretty cool
Wow, fascinating. I agree, furthering progress in research and invention in modern agriculture is SO essential!!
Wow this has given me a good idea to breed my perfect children!
Wait- what...👁👄👁💧
@@brooklynworldgames3222 self fertilize the children
Ayyy yoooo 💀
How did I get here
Let me be your other plant
Great info, as I'm currently in the early stages of crossing several varieties to make a custom fruit myself. Your info explains why I have different peppers even on the same plant, and now I know better, what to do to refine each generation..
Well executed and explained loved the video i found it helpful in my endevers to create varieties of my own for different purposes for instance a tomato that produces well , has decent disease and pest resistance and looks rather well not prone to cracking easily and reminds one of a typical country farmer tomato
This is what I've been doing with my pepper plants. Have crossed Bell with Jalapeno a few times now. Have even crossed his plant onto a Bell pepper plant, growing the seeds to see if any heat comes out of it, might be a little. Have lots of videos on my peppers. Good Luck with your peppers :)
Have you tried hybridizing different *species* of peppers?
@@brandon9172 I have a Scotch Bonnet plant but found it too hot. I might still try and cross it onto a Bell pepper plant this year and see what the fruits are like next year.
Hybridizing is fun! Good luck with your project. I hybridize as well and have some interesting variegated poblano in the works. Beauty and flavor is a must for me if I can have it and I have decided I will have it.
This video is so great! I'm working on my own pimento Carolina Reaper crossbreed.
how it going
@@sian9467 I'd love to see that cross as well. If you are still interested in pepper hybrids, I have a few videos of some interesting hybrids in the works as well.
Much love❤ I accidentally crossed ghost and reaper and very excited to see how I turns out next year 🎉
Incredible video deserved way more attention
Thank you that’s very informative and interesting. 👍🏻🇦🇺
Extra large cavity Jalapeno is an awesome project! Any updates and were any backcrosses utilized at any point? I love hybridizing peppers as well so this great to see this art/science being taught and shared.
Man I love that idea. Ill try this in my greenhouse this year
I'd love to see an update of the evolution
Great video. Thanks much!!
busy splicing tomatoes and jalapeños to make spicy tomatoes because I love tomatoes and spicy food
@Democrats Are just nazis LOL
@Democrats Are just nazis For the most part, hybrids do need to be in the same genus. But, this is a general rule that applies most of the time but not always.
Hybrids between different subspecies within a species are known as intra-specific hybrids. Hybrids between different species within the same genus are known as interspecific hybrids. Hybrids between different genera are known as intergeneric hybrids. And finally Extremely rare interfamilial hybrids have been known to occur.
I try my best to keep my peppers from cross breeding but if I was to try to make a new pepper I think I would try to get a pepper as hot as possible while making it the size of a bell pepper.
cross it with tomato?
Nice. I am going to be doing a similar project at home
This video was posted 3 years ago. I want to see an update on it!
are the plants still being selected? or has the goal been achieved? if so, are the seeds available to the public to try?
love it!
I love this video
This was a dope project
Concur 100%. Who doesn't love stuffed peppers!
What happens next once you get the perfect specimen? How do you keep that variety going? Will the seeds from self fertilization give you the same plant at some point, like heirloom varieties do?
I can only assume that there will be swings on size and flavor until there is consistency over time. Kind of like a pepper pendulum.
as they become more inbred they become more uniform
Why did you use the pollen from the Bell Pepper to fertilize the Jalapeno and not the pollen from the Jalapeno to fertilize the Bell Pepper? Does it matter? Is Genomic Imprinting a factor with peppers?
Is there somewhere we can get the seeds ?
So there will be a time when the offspring is "stabilized"?
so cool
Kya black bhilawa seeds Ko whait me badla ja sakta hai
This only works if the plant is in the same family category?
This is so cool. What makes it so that you can not cross pollinate any plant with any plant?
they are different species and biologically incompatible, this is like asking why can't you breed a cow with a pig
Can i use pollen of other plants, like from tomato to cross pollinate in chilli?
How did you pass school...
So did they keep the project going?
Crossing Jalapeno with a Bell Pepper and select until you have a Jalapeno again? :D Great video tho, sadly no updates :((
I'm wondering....they crossed a female jalapeno with a male bell. Now if they had also crossed a male jalapeno and a female bell would it have been different? THEN if you then crossed those two plants what would the fruits be like?
sweet and small?? idk lol
@Need2connect thanks
Can you make more nutritious dense foods this way ?
Yuh
Please update
Anyone know how the parent sex affects the kids? eg. what an A mother B father looks like vs B mom A father?
🙏💐❤️🇮🇳
What happens if you get the second generation and cross pollinated them with a bell pepper
it either wont work or make plants that are closer in size to the pepper but way less spicy
it would be 2:1 in the gene pool so the dominant trait would almost entirely destroy your experiment
This is a very common and interesting tactic used in plant breeding called “backcrossing”. I encourage you to read more about it because the science behind it is interesting.
@@payme4243 First cross is 50 bell and 50 jalapeno. If one crossed that back to a bell pepper, only half of the 50% jalapeno would carry over making it 75% bell and 25% jalapeno.
Generations of inbreeding a hybrid and selection are more difficult to predict how much genetics is retained from the original cultivars.
Given a large enough initial seed base, one might still select for large jalapeno like morphology and jalapeno spicy traits from future inbreeding the hybrids until one has relatively limited variability and the desired traits in the hybrid gene pool.
@@kreynolds1123 thanks, I didn’t know it wasn’t as straight forward as I thought
I like buying plants with seeds in them so i can regrow them
Musk melons are a wild melons if I'm not mistaken
So why wait a year when you can grow and flower peppers every few months from seed without even forcing it with lights
To allow them to adapt to the environment they're intended to grow in. Peppers naturally have a reasonably long growing season too, so it's not possible to grow multiple rounds outside in one growing season in most parts of the world. If it was just for the pepper size, shape, and flavour, they could do that, but they were also growing for weather and pest resistance.
@@juliaf_ thanks I didn't think about that being in the south getting flowers in February I thought it was easy
I dunno… I’ve seen quite a few other videos of accidental cross-pollination and the results are said to be nasty/inedible. Unsure if this is a joke or ….???
nICE.
excuse my ignorance, why wait for next season, cannabis growers grow all year around, indoors in grow tents, why not do this ?
They would be adapted to what grows best indoors instead of organically outdoors.
Maybe some1 harvesting humans too :p
Why would the second generation look all random after generation 1 seemed constant...
Crossbreeding applies the dna changes to the seeds, not the fruit itself, thus the changes don't happen till the next generation.
A little quieter next time please.
You can find wild watermelon
Nice GMO peppers.
not GMO, Genetically Modified Organism is not bred it's changing the genes unnaturally (i.e.= CRISPR) I recommend you look into it since it can be very interesting
@@payme4243 correct
GMO and hybrids are not the same
@@payme4243 Technically artificial selection is a GMO, but they are not bad
@@darealpoopster GMO also isn't bad
