Androgenesis and Haploid Plants
This book illustrates how the advances in plant molecular and cell biology provide an exciting means for the analysis of androgenesis in terms of pollen development and the initiation of embryogenesis.
Jean-Pierre Bourgin, Yves Chupeau, Michel Caboche, 1998

Sperm Biology: An Evolutionary Perspective
Androgenesis is a process in which the egg nucleus is lost from a zygote, and an
individual develops with nuclear material derived solely from one or more sperm
nuclei. Rare, spontaneous androgenesis has long been recognized (Wilson ...

Plant Biotechnology and Molecular Markers
Heat treatment is the most commonly used pretreatment to initiate androgenesis
in B. napus [11]. The temperature must be around 32°C for 8 h in order to induce
androgenesis sufficiently. This is time and dose dependent and any interruption ...

Plant Tissue Culture: Theory and Practice: Theory and Practice
Rarely, however, they reproduce the characters of the male parent alone,
suggesting their origin through 'ovule androgenesis'2 (embryo development
inside the ovule by the activity of the male nucleus alone). In vivo occurrence of
androgenic ...

Transgenic Plants and Crops
However, because of the success of anther culture compared to ovary culture,
much of the focus remained on haploid plant production via androgenesis. It was
not until 1976 that the first plants derived from in vitro gynogenesis were reported
...

Micropropagation of Woody Plants
The predominant factor influencing androgenesis is genotype. Obviously, it is
important to work with a species in which there is some ongoing genetic program
and known genotypes are available. In conifers such programs have only
recently ...

INTERNATIONAL REVIEW OF CYTOLOGY
These drastic increases of the species following in vitro androgenesis, have,
however, some limits, the principal limits being (1) only very few pollen of these
species undergo in vitro androgenesis, and (2) most of these species belong to
the ...

Plant Tissue Culture Concepts and Laboratory Exercises, ...
Media Androgenesis can be induced on a simple medium such as that
developed by Nitsch and Nitsch (1969) for tobacco and a few other species. For
most other species, the most commonly used media for anther culture are MS (
Murashige ...

Plant Tissue Culture: An Introductory Text
Androgenesis. 8.1. Introduction. Haploid plants are characterized genetic ally by
the presence of gametic number of chromosomes in their cells (i.e., half the
number of chromosomes as in somatic cells). In nature, haploids arise as an ...

Life in the Frozen State
Cryopreservation of the sperm of endangered cichlid species has also been
studied. 14.2.5 ANDROGENESIS Androgenesis is a method used for
regenerating individuals with exclusively paternal inheritance of nuclear genome
information.
