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 …

Simple Summary Many crops including wheat have a narrow genetic base after hundreds of
years of breeding and selection. This makes it difficult to breed new varieties with increased …

Abstract The North American Project to Evaluate Soil Health Measurements was initiated
with the objective to identify widely applicable soil health measurements for evaluation of …

Embryo rescue (ER) techniques are among the oldest and most successful in vitro tissue
culture protocols used with plant species. ER refers to a series of methods that promote the …

Doubled haploid production is a valuable biotechnology that can accelerate the breeding of
new wheat varieties by several years through the one-step creation of 100% homozygous …

Production of doubled haploids (DH s) is an important methodology to speed the process of
breeding and development of mapping populations in crops. The procedure for DH …

The usefulness of haploid plants in basic research in cytogenetics, genetics, evolution, and
practical plant breeding is well known. Haploid plants provide an efficient research tool for …

Wheat is an important cereal crop, and its significance is more due to compete for dietary
products in the world. Many constraints facing by the wheat crop due to environmental …

Chromosome elimination resulting in haploids is achieved by rapid loss of chromosomes
from one parent during the zygote stage and is an important procedure to produce doubled …

Wheat crop has a critical role in current food system and also in the future global food
security. Global wheat demand in 2010 reached 666 million metric tons (MMT). If the …
