Abstract: | Methods for the production and utilisation of haploids have been developed for a range of crop plants. Genetical and environmental factors are known to influence both the rate of haploid induction and the mode of regeneration. Investigations designed to examine the parameters that influence haploid production from anthers are usually based on the overall percentage of responding anthers. Previous studies have rarely taken into account the frequency or distribution of anther culture response within a potato flower. In this paper the binomial, poisson and multiplicative binomial distributions are used for the first time to describe the distribution of anther culture response within a Solanum tuberosum flower. |
