Question

Haploid plants can be obtained by culturing ????

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Haploid plants can be produced from immature pollen or microspores (male gametophytic cells).  These pollen are cultured on a solid or liquid medium. The callus/embryo formed is transferred to a suitable medium to finally produce a haploid plant , and then a diploid plant (on colchicine treatment).

Haploid plants can be produced through in vitro culture of male gametophytic cells at the microspore or immature pollen developmental stage. These cells respond in vitro by undergoing embryogenesis or haploid callus proliferation.
