Abstract: | Summary Several interspecific and intergeneric crosses involving five Hordeum species, Triticum aestivum and Secale cereale were carried out to investigate the influence of two contrasting temperatures on chromosome elimination during embryo development. In four of the interspecific Hordeum crosses, chromosome elimination was significantly increased at the higher of the two temperatures, resulting in greater proportions of haploid plant progenies. However, there was no significant effect of temperature in the other interspecific cross between H. lechleri x H. bulbosum nor in the two intergeneric crosses between H. vulgare x S. cereale and T. aestivum x H. bulbosum whose progeny were exclusively hybrid and haploid, respectively. |
