Title: Advances in Haploid Breeding of Broccoli(Brassica oleracea var.italica)
Abstract: The use of microspore or anther culture to generate doubled-haploids(DH) is an important adjunct to broccoli breeding.In this paper,the history and the recent progress on anther culture and isolated microspore culture of broccoli was reviewed.Anther culture technique,isolated microspore culture technique and the major factors affecting the formation of plant regeneration were expounded.Ploidy compositions of populations derived from microspore culture and from anther culture were compared.The main determination methods of ploidy were introduced in detail.The application status and the theory value of haploidy and DH lines were summarized as well.The problems of haploidy breeding of broccoli were discussed,and the application of the techniques in study and practice was forecasted.
