Key Message Increased efficiencies achieved in different steps of DH line production offer
greater benefits to maize breeding programs. Abstract Doubled haploid (DH) technology has …

With the advent of rapid genotyping and next‐generation sequencing technologies, genome‐
wide association study (GWAS) has become a routine strategy for decoding genotype …

Maize is a heterosis-utilizing crop species, and the application of maize hybrids has
significantly improved total maize yields worldwide. Breeding pure lines is the most …

Manifold and diverse applications of doubled haploid (DH) plants have emerged in
academy and in the plant breeding industry since the first discovery of a haploid mutant in …

Key message We propose a new model to improve maize breeding that incorporates
doubled haploid production, genomic selection, and genome optimization. Abstract …

Efficient production and use of doubled haploid lines can greatly accelerate genetic gains in
maize breeding programs. One of the critical steps in standard doubled haploid line …

Haploids are naturally produced in maize (Zea mays L.) at different rates and can also be
induced through different methods. Haploids are used to develop doubled haploids (DHs) …

Induced mutations are important for genetic research and breeding. Mutations induced by
physical or chemical mutagenesis are usually heterozygous during the early generations …

Doubled haploid (DH) technology has changed the maize-breeding landscape in recent
years. Traditionally, DH production requires the use of chemical doubling agents to induce …

In vivo doubled haploid (DH) technology is widely used in commercial maize (Zea mays L.)
breeding. Haploid genome doubling is a critical step in DH breeding. In this study, inbred …
