Abstract:Long bofeng No.1 is an early-season, high-yield and high-oil walnut. The seeding were selected from the ‘Longnan spike walnut’ group. It was initially selected in 2011 for its extremely high yield and spike-shaped fruit. In 2016, it was selected as the superior line and temporarily named as 'GanguDui Spike '. In 2017-2023, re-tests were carried out in Wudu, Chengxian and other places in Longnan City, and the comprehensive characters were excellent.
