Rye (Secale cereale L.) has its origin in southwest Asia. From there it was probably distributed to Russia, and later to western Europe. Only 2–3% of total cereal production falls to rye. Approximately 90% of rye production is concentrated in Europe. The distribution of rye is restricted to the area between the 50th and 60th degree of northern latitude.

Plants having a single genome are known as haploids. Alternatively, haploid plants also are defined as those that have the gametic number of chromosomes. However, in the case of a polyploid species like alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.), a tetraploid with 2n = 4x = 32, haploid plants actually are true diploids with two homologous sets of chromosomes (2n ...

Haploid plantlets can be produced through various means (Clapham, 1977). However, haploid production using anther or microspore culture is amenable to many dicotyledonous and monocotyledonous crop species. The doubled haploid breeding scheme has advantages in accelerating and simplifying procedures for production of homozygous plants.

Barley was one of the first crops to be cultivated by man (Zohary & Hopf, 1988), and today ranks as the fifth most productive crop in the world. Factors which have contributed to its successful cultivation include its tolerance to abiotic stresses; high and low temperatures, drought, mineral deficiencies and toxicities, and its relatively short life ...

Both Lolium perenne and L. multiflorum are strong outbreeders that exhibit severe inbreeding depression (Bean & Yok-Hwa, 1972; Matzk, 1974) and possess a strict gametophytic self-incompatibility system which involves two major gene loci with modification by the genetic background (Lawrence et al., 1983).

Most temperate fruit trees are characterized by a long reproductive cycle with several years of a juvenile phase, a tendency to allogamy and a large tree size. They are generally highly heterozygous, outbreeding species, which are asexually propagated. For these reasons, their genetic improvement by conventional methods is time-consuming and limited by

Grapevine is one of the most widely cultivated plants in the world and man has been growing it since the beginning of his recorded history. Despite this, haploid plants have never been observed in Vitis (Olmo, 1976), which would lead to the conclusion that haploidy, the ability to generate haploid (n) plants (sporophytes) rather than diploids (2n), is ...
