ninety barley doubled haploid lines originated from crossing between six barley cultivars in cereal research department, seed and plant improvement institute, karaj, iran were evaluated for resistance to powdery mildew and some agronomic traits in field in 2007. six parent cultivars and a powdery mildew susceptible check cultivar, afzal were also included. sixty two doubled haploid lines showed...

haploid inducer line can be transferred (DH) technology can not only shorten the breeding process but also increase genetic gain. Haploid induction and subsequent genome doubling are the two main steps required for DH technology. Haploids have been generated through the culture of immature male and female gametophytes, and through inter- and intraspecific via chromosome elimination. Here, we fo...

this study involves in vitro androgenesis of zea maysl. via anther culture. combination of two embryoinduction media (imss & ypm) in presence of different colchicine concentrations (0, 100, 200, 250, 300and 400 mg/l ) in the pretreatment medium (iml) andpretreatment duration (0, 3, 6 and 9 days) in twogenotypes (dh5×dh7 and eth-m82) were tested.after colchicine pretreatment, anthers were tr...

Doubled haploid technology has become an increasingly popular and important tool for developing new maize lines (Zea mays L.) breeding. Conventional breeding requires repeated self-pollination about six to ten generations obtain homozygous inbred lines. Completely can be produced in only two by using doubled technology. In vivo induction of the maternal method was used production 32 different d...

salinity tolerance is a genetically and physiologically complex trait, controlled by quantitative trait loci (qtls). in order to map the qtls associated with agronomic and physiological traits, 149 doubled haploid lines derived from a cross between clipper (salt susceptible) and sahara 3771 (salt tolerant) barley genotypes were evaluated under natural saline-stress and non-stress conditions usi...
