The discovery of haploids in higher plants led to the use of doubled haploid (DH) technology
in plant breeding. This article provides the state of the art on DH technology including the …

In vitro androgenesis is an important component of plant biotechnology when the pollen
grains are forced to switch from their normal pollen developmental pathway towards an …

Anther culture is an important biotechnological tool for the rapid recovery of fixed breeding
lines in rice. The method is largely species-and genotype-specific. Indica rice is known to …

A total of 200 doubled haploids (DHs) were generated from an elite rice hybrid,'BS6444G'for
which an androgenic method was developed by manipulating the physical and chemical …

Doubled haploid (DH) plant production, such as anther culture (AC), is an effective tool used
in modern rice breeding programs. The improved efficient protocols applied can shorten the …

An improved procedure has been developed for high frequency androgenesis in an elite
long duration indica rice hybrid. The effects of cold temperature pretreatment, duration of …

Rice is critical to global food security which demands immediate attention to meet the ever-
growing population. Development of improved variety is the major focus area of research, in …

Application of chemical substances as stress pre-treatment factors may positively influence
androgenetic responses in cereal and other crops. AgNO 3 is an anti-ethylene compounds …

Developing plants from in vitro culture of microspores or immature pollen grains
(androgenesis) is a highly genotype-dependent process whose effectiveness in cereals is …

Anther culture is an efficient biotechnological tool in modern plant breeding programs to
produce new varieties and parental lines in hybrid seed productions. However, some …
