There are many factors influencing the deployment of doubled haploidy in breeding.
Strategies for exploiting doubled haploids (DHs) vary within and among species and are …

Haploids are plants (sporophytes) that contain a gametic chromosome number (n). They can
originate spontaneously in nature or as a result of various induction techniques …

Conclusions Haploids are interesting components of the range of genetically aberrant types
that are found when cytogenetic investigations are made into many angiosperm species. As …

For years, cereals and monocots in general have been poor responders in in vitro haploid
production systems when compared to many dicot crops. The response frequency was low …

Plant breeders are eternal optimists, always searching for and expecting significant
breakthroughs in plateaus of yield, quality, or adaptation. These breakthroughs have been …

The production of doubled haploid (DH) barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) plants has proven to
be a highly valuable tool for plant breeding, allowing the release of a high number of new …

Wheat is the most important worldwide cereal, yet very few countries have important
research programmes on the in vitro androgenesis and its use in wheat breeding. Only in …

Now available only in paperback, this book has been described as``... by far the most
comprehensive book on plant tissue culture... few publications in this field can compare with …

This review report on the progress made to develop doubled haploid methods in triticale.
Wide hybridization, anther culture and isolated microspores methods have been well …

It is more than thirty years since the publication of the first report on anther culture in Datura
innoxia by Guha and Maheshwari (1964). After an initial lag of 2-3 years, the activity in this …
