Doubled Haploids in Eggplant [PDF]
Biology, 2021 Eggplant is a solanaceous crop cultivated worldwide for its edible fruit. Eggplant breeding programs are mainly aimed to the generation of F1 hybrids by crossing two highly homozygous, pure lines, which are traditionally obtained upon several self ...

Production of haploids and doubled haploids in oil palm [PDF]
BMC Plant Biology, 2010 Background Oil palm is the world's most productive oil-food crop despite yielding well below its theoretical maximum. This maximum could be approached with the introduction of elite F1 varieties.

De novo construction of polyploid linkage maps using discrete graphical models [PDF]
, 2018 Linkage maps are used to identify the location of genes responsible for traits and diseases. New sequencing techniques have created opportunities to substantially increase the density of genetic markers.

Critical mutation rate has an exponential dependence on population size in haploid and diploid populations [PDF]
, 2013 Understanding the effect of population size on the key parameters of evolution is particularly important for populations nearing extinction. There are evolutionary pressures to evolve sequences that are both fit and robust.

Genetic variability of anther donor versus spontaneous doubled haploid descendents and colchicine induced doubled haploid sweet pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) lines [PDF]
, 2001 Haploid (n) and doubled haploid (DH) plants were developed in anther culture of sweet pepper (Capsicum annuum L.). Regenerants were analyzed by flow cytometry for haploid (n = 12) and spontaneous doubled haploid (2n = 24) genomes.

Recombining your way out of trouble: the genetic architecture of hybrid fitness under environmental stress [PDF]
, 2020 Hybridization between species is a fundamental evolutionary force that can both promote and delay adaptation. There is a deficit in our understanding of the genetic basis of hybrid fitness, especially in non-domesticated organisms.

Agronomy, 2020 Doubled haploids have played a major role in cucurbit breeding for the past four decades. In situ parthenogenesis via irradiated pollen is the preferred technique to obtain haploid plantlets whose chromosomes are then doubled in Cucurbitaceae, such as ...

Catastrophic chromosomal restructuring during genome elimination in plants. [PDF]
, 2015 Genome instability is associated with mitotic errors and cancer. This phenomenon can lead to deleterious rearrangements, but also genetic novelty, and many questions regarding its genesis, fate and evolutionary role remain unanswered.

Diploidization of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) haploids by colchicine treatment
Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014 Haploid cucumber plants are totally infertile and do not undergo spontaneous diploidization. The use of haploids depends on the possibility of doubling the chromosome number and the obtaining of stable doubled haploids (DH).
