Introduction
Doubled haploid: A โ€œdoubled haploidโ€ (DH) is a genotype
formed when haploid (n) cells successfully undergo either
spontaneous or artificially induced chromosome doubling.

(A) In vitro methods of doubled
haploid production
๏ถ These methods use tissue culture techniques for the production
of haploids.
๏ถ In vitro methods have shown little promise to reliably produce
the large numbers of DH lines required by maize breeding
programs.
๏ถ In vitro methods had very limited success due to non
responsiveness of many maize genotypes.
๏ถ These methods require a good laboratory and skilled staff.
๏ถ In vitro methods are of two types:
1. Androgenesis: includes pollen culture and anther culture
2. Gynogenesis: includes ovule culture and ovary culture
Indian
Agricultural
Research
Institute
New
Delhi,
India (1) Anther Culture/ Pollen Culture
(In Vitro Androgenesis)
๏ถ Anon (1975) first reported the successful anther culture of
maize.
๏ถ The successful application of anther culture techniques in
maize breeding is largely dependent on the androgenic
responses of the genotypes and on the frequency of induced or
spontaneous genome doubling in plants of microspore origin.
๏ถ Intensive studies have been carried out to improve the culture
conditions, leading to greater androgenic response, but most of
the genotypes responsive to anther culture have been found in
non-commercial maize germplasm.

(In Vitro Gynogenesis)
๏ถ In vitro gynogenesis so far has been reported only by
two groups i.e. Ao et al. (1982); Truong-Andre &
Demarly (1984). So more research will be required to
evaluate the potential of this method for maize
๏ถ The induction of ovule responses is strongly genotype-
dependent.
๏ถ The frequency of response with permissive genotypes
ranged from 3.4 to 12%. Only 6 responses were found
from 175 cultured ovules (Ao et al. 1982)
๏ถ Truong-Andre and Demarly (1984) obtained 6 plants
from 317 cultured ovules.

Merits & Demerits
Merits:
๏ถIt is useful in production of doubled haploids where
plant is male sterile.
๏ถThis method is useful in embryo rescue technique.
Demerits:
๏ถIt is highly genotype dependent.
๏ถThis method gives less number of haploid plants as
compared to anther / pollen culture.

(B) In vivo methods of doubled
haploid production
๏ถIn vivo methods of DH production in maize is
relatively easier and widely used.
๏ถIn this method special genetic stocks are used for
haploid production which are known as Haploid
Induction Lines (HILs)
๏ถ These methods do not require any sophisticated
laboratory.
๏ถThere are two types of doubled haploids-
(1) Paternal doubled haploids
(2) Maternal doubled haploids
Indian
Agricultural
Research
Institute
New
Delhi,
India (1) Paternal Doubled Haploids
(In Situ Androgenesis)
๏ถ Reported by Kermicle in 1969.
๏ถ It is due to mutant gene โ€œig1โ€ (indeterminate gametophyte).
๏ถ Homozygous ig1 mutants show several embryological
abnormalities such as development of egg cell without nuclei.

Note: line W 23 (which carries the ig = indeterminate gametophyte
mutation; Kermicle, 1969) is used as the female parent.

India Merits and Demerits of Paternal Doubled
Haploids
Merits:
๏ƒ˜ These are helpful in transferring cytoplasmic male
sterility (CMS) to a different genetic background
within a short period of time (within 2-3 generations)
๏ƒ˜ Demerits:
โ€ข Low frequency of haploid induction i.e. 1-2%.
โ€ข Such DHs contain cytoplasm of the inducer and
chromosomes from the donor parent, so this system is
not very attractive to derive inbred lines for breeding.
Indian

Delhi,
India
(2) Maternal Doubled Haploids
(In Situ Gynogenesis)
๏ƒ˜ It is very common in maize breeding.
๏ƒ˜ In this method HIL is used as male parent.
๏ƒ˜ The first inducer recorded by Coe (1959) called
โ€œStock 6,โ€ produced maternal haploids at a frequency
of 2โ€“3%.

Mechanism of maternal haploid induction
๏ถThe exact mechanism of maternal haploid induction
have not yet been clearly understood.
๏ถThe regular double fertilization is distorted after
pollination with the pollen of a haploid inducer line
๏ถOne sperm cell fuses with the central cell but the
other sperm cell does not fuse with the egg cell. But a
fertilized and dividing central cell stimulates the
unfertilized haploid egg cell to develop into a haploid
embryo (Chase, 1969).

Steps involved in doubled haploid
Production
1. Selection of individual for haploid induction
2. Induction of haploids
3. Identification of haploids
4. Chromosome doubling in the haploids
5. Seed production from D0 nursery
Indian
Agricultural
Research
Institute
New
Delhi,
India (1) Selection of individual for haploid
induction
๏ƒ˜ Individual plant can be selected by two ways-
a) From a cross between two parents
b) From heterozygous population.
Selection of individual also depends on the breeding objective:
๏ƒ˜ For inbred development best plant is selected from a
population or from a cross, as a donor and only superior
haploid is developed as inbred after chromosome doubling.
๏ƒ˜ For development of mapping population F1 from contrast
parents is used as a donor and all haploids are used to make
DH population.

(3) Identification of haploids
๏ƒ˜ Following methods are used for haploid
identification-
a) Anthocyanin color marker, R1-nj (R1-navajo)
system
b) Purple root and purple stem marker system
c) Transgenic method
d) High oil marker method
Indian
Agricultural

R1-njโ€ฆ.Contโ€ฆ.
Merits:
๏ƒ˜ It identifies haploids at seed level, hence no need to grow
diploid seed.
Demerits:
๏ƒ˜ Marker expression can be inhibited by anthocyanin inhibitor
genes like C1-I
๏ƒ˜ It is a manual method of haploid identification.
๏ƒ˜ If source germplasm has โ€œR1-njโ€ allele, then this method canโ€™t
be used.
๏ƒ˜ Intensity of color expression depends on moisture content of
seed.
Indian
Agricultural
Research
Institute
New
Delhi,
India b) Purple root and purple stem marker
system
๏ƒ˜ Two genes Pl1 (Purple1) & B1 (Booster1) involved in this
system, which can impart purple or red color to the plant tissues.
๏ƒ˜ Pl1 (Purple1) conditions sunlight independent purple
pigmentation in plant tissues, and B1 (Booster1) conditions
sunlight dependent purple pigmentation in most of the above
ground plant tissues (Coe, 1994).
๏ƒ˜ HILs like MHI and Procera have this system along with R1-nj.
Diploid seedlings: Purple roots and stems
Haploid seedlings: No coloration

Purple rootโ€ฆContโ€ฆ.
Merits:
๏ƒ˜ It can be used in a wide array of maize germplasm as root
color phenotype is very rare in maize germplasm.
๏ƒ˜ It is recommended when the R1-nj marker is not effective.
Demerits:
๏ƒ˜ It demands germination of large numbers of induced seeds,
which is labor intensive.
๏ƒ˜ Expression of the B1 and Pl1 genes are affected by plant
growth conditions, especially sunlight and temperature.
Indian
Agricultural
Research
Institute
New
Delhi,
India c) Transgenic method
๏ƒ˜ In this method, Transgenic HILs are used which carry
herbicide tolerance gene.
๏ƒ˜ At seedling stage screening is done by herbicide
application.
๏ƒ˜ Haploids are herbicide susceptible and diploids are
herbicide tolerant.
๏ƒ˜ In order to identify haploids herbicide is applied on
small portion of seedling.
๏ƒ˜ The application of transgenic haploid inducers may
not be possible in many countries due to restrictions
on the use of transgenics.
Indian
Agricultural
Research
Institute
New
Delhi,
India
d) High oil marker method
๏ƒ˜ This method can facilitate mechanical screening by using NMR
(Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) technique.
๏ƒ˜ Haploids seeds and diploid seeds naturally show differences in
their average kernel oil content with haploids showing 0.6โ€“
0.8% less oil than the diploids, as >85% oil accumulates in the
seed embryo (Rotarenco et al. 2007; Melchinger et al. 2014).
๏ƒ˜ Several high oil inducers such as CAUHOI (7.8% Oil content),
UH600 (10.8% OC) and UH601 (11.7% OC) has been
developed.

Merits:
๏ƒ˜ It identifies haploids at seed level.
๏ƒ˜ This method can be automated.
๏ƒ˜ It can be applicable in all germplasm including land races and
wild relatives of maize.
Demerits:
๏ƒ˜ Requires inducer with high oil content for clear difference
between haploids and diploids.
๏ƒ˜ Requires high cost for establishment of NMR-based
automation platform.
Indian
Agricultural
Research
Institute

(4) Chromosome doubling in the haploids
๏ƒ˜ A commonly used chromosome doubling agent is colchicine,
which is a water-soluble alkaloid produced from the bulbs of
Colchicum autumnale.
๏ƒ˜ Colchicine binds to tubulins and prevents the formation of
spindle microtubules during the metaphase stage of mitosis.
๏ƒ˜ 4-5 days old seedlings are used for colchicine treatment.
๏ƒ˜ A solution with 0.04% colchicine and 0.5% DMSO is used for
chromosomal doubling.
๏ƒ˜ Seedlings are kept in the colchicine tank for 12 hours.
๏ƒ˜ Seedlings are washed at least three times by distilled water.

facilitate better
penetration of
colchicine.
(C)
Placement of

in an iron tank.
Indian
Agricultural
Research
Institute
New
Delhi,
India (5) Seed production from D0 nursery
๏ƒ˜ Colchicine treated seedlings are very weak, hence need to be
handled with care under controlled condition.
๏ƒ˜ In D0 nursery there is limited number of pollen production.
๏ƒ˜ There will be fertile and sterile pollens, so fertile pollens are
used for selfing
๏ƒ˜ During selfing โ€œfalseโ€ diploid should be discarded to avoid
contamination.
๏ƒ˜ Self pollinated ear should be harvested after physiological
maturity.
๏ƒ˜ Each D0 derived seed will represent distinct DH line.
๏ƒ˜ In D1 nursery seed is multiplied by selfing and DH lines are
developed.

Case study
Objectives :
(1) To study the differences between haploids and diploid seedlings
in terms of radicle length (RL), coleoptile length (CL), and
number of lateral seminal roots (NLSR) during early growth
stages
(2) To validate the use of such traits for haploid identification in
populations with complete inhibition of Navajo marker
(3) To determine if seedling traits can be effectively used for early
identification of false positives.

Advantages of doubled haploids
๏ƒ˜ Development of complete homozygous line in 2-3
generations
๏ƒ˜ Perfect fulfillment with DUS criteria for variety
protection

Disadvantages of doubled haploids
๏ƒ˜ The main disadvantage with the DH population is that
selection cannot be imposed on the population.
๏ƒ˜ Another disadvantage associated with the double
haploidy is the cost involved in establishing tissue
culture and growth facilities.
๏ƒ˜ The over-usage of doubled haploidy may reduce
genetic variation in breeding germplasm.

Conclusions
๏ƒ˜ Technological advances have now provided DH
protocols for most plant genera.
๏ƒ˜ The number of species amenable to doubled haploidy
has reached a staggering 250 in just a few decades.
๏ƒ˜ Response efficiency has also improved with gradual
removal of species from recalcitrant category. Hence
it will provide greater efficiency of plant breeding

College of Agriculture, Jobner Sri Karan Narendra Agriculture University, Jobner Credit Seminar on Doubled Haploid Technology for Line Development in Maize Major Advisor Dr. D.K. Gothwal Professor Seminar Incharge Dr. S.S. Rajput Assistant Professor Presented by Giradhari Lal Yadav Ph.D. Scholar (PBG)
  • 3. Indian Agricultural Research Institute New Delhi, India Contents ๏ƒ˜ Introduction ๏ƒ˜ History of maize doubled haploids ๏ƒ˜ Types and techniques of doubled haploids ๏ƒ˜ Selection of individual for haploid induction ๏ƒ˜ Induction of haploids ๏ƒ˜ Identification of haploids ๏ƒ˜ Chromosome doubling in the haploids ๏ƒ˜ Seed production from D0 nursery ๏ƒ˜ Case study ๏ƒ˜ Advantages of doubled haploids ๏ƒ˜ Disadvantages of doubled haploids ๏ƒ˜ Applications of DHs in plant breeding ๏ƒ˜ Conclusions
  • 4. Indian Agricultural Research Institute New Delhi, India Introduction Doubled haploid: A โ€œdoubled haploidโ€ (DH) is a genotype formed when haploid (n) cells successfully undergo either spontaneous or artificially induced chromosome doubling.
  • 5. Indian Agricultural Research Institute New Delhi, India History of maize doubled haploids ๏ƒผ Chase(1949): spontaneous haploid production 0.1% HIR and chromosome doubling ๏ƒผ Coe(1959): Identified a line having higher haploid production and designated as โ€œSTOCK 6โ€ with 2-3% HIR ๏ƒผ Rober et al., (2005): RWS line with 8.1% HIR frequency based on R-nj marker ๏ƒผ Li et al., (2009): CAUHOI line with 2% HIR frequency, based on kernel oil content
  • 6. Indian Agricultural Research Institute New Delhi, India In vitro In vivo/ in situ Paternal Anther Culture and Pollen Culture Inducer line used as female and Donor parent used as male Maternal Ovule culture Inducer line used as male and Donor parent used as female Techniques Different techniques of Doubled Haploids production in maize Types
  • 7. Indian Agricultural Research Institute New Delhi, India (A) In vitro methods of doubled haploid production ๏ถ These methods use tissue culture techniques for the production of haploids. ๏ถ In vitro methods have shown little promise to reliably produce the large numbers of DH lines required by maize breeding programs. ๏ถ In vitro methods had very limited success due to non responsiveness of many maize genotypes. ๏ถ These methods require a good laboratory and skilled staff. ๏ถ In vitro methods are of two types: 1. Androgenesis: includes pollen culture and anther culture 2. Gynogenesis: includes ovule culture and ovary culture
  • 8. Indian Agricultural Research Institute New Delhi, India (1) Anther Culture/ Pollen Culture (In Vitro Androgenesis) ๏ถ Anon (1975) first reported the successful anther culture of maize. ๏ถ The successful application of anther culture techniques in maize breeding is largely dependent on the androgenic responses of the genotypes and on the frequency of induced or spontaneous genome doubling in plants of microspore origin. ๏ถ Intensive studies have been carried out to improve the culture conditions, leading to greater androgenic response, but most of the genotypes responsive to anther culture have been found in non-commercial maize germplasm.
  • 9. Indian Agricultural Research Institute New Delhi, India Anther Culture/ Pollen Culture (In Vitro Androgenesis) Collect Anther/ pollen Plating of anthers/pollen Proliferating anthers/ pollen Callus Formation Haploid plantlets Colchicine treatment DH Plant Embryo development
  • 10. Indian Agricultural Research Institute New Delhi, India (2) Ovary/Ovule Culture (In Vitro Gynogenesis) ๏ถ In vitro gynogenesis so far has been reported only by two groups i.e. Ao et al. (1982); Truong-Andre & Demarly (1984). So more research will be required to evaluate the potential of this method for maize ๏ถ The induction of ovule responses is strongly genotype- dependent. ๏ถ The frequency of response with permissive genotypes ranged from 3.4 to 12%. Only 6 responses were found from 175 cultured ovules (Ao et al. 1982) ๏ถ Truong-Andre and Demarly (1984) obtained 6 plants from 317 cultured ovules.
  • 11. Indian Agricultural Research Institute New Delhi, India Merits & Demerits Merits: ๏ถIt is useful in production of doubled haploids where plant is male sterile. ๏ถThis method is useful in embryo rescue technique. Demerits: ๏ถIt is highly genotype dependent. ๏ถThis method gives less number of haploid plants as compared to anther / pollen culture.
  • 12. Indian Agricultural Research Institute New Delhi, India (B) In vivo methods of doubled haploid production ๏ถIn vivo methods of DH production in maize is relatively easier and widely used. ๏ถIn this method special genetic stocks are used for haploid production which are known as Haploid Induction Lines (HILs) ๏ถ These methods do not require any sophisticated laboratory. ๏ถThere are two types of doubled haploids- (1) Paternal doubled haploids (2) Maternal doubled haploids
  • 13. Indian Agricultural Research Institute New Delhi, India (1) Paternal Doubled Haploids (In Situ Androgenesis) ๏ถ Reported by Kermicle in 1969. ๏ถ It is due to mutant gene โ€œig1โ€ (indeterminate gametophyte). ๏ถ Homozygous ig1 mutants show several embryological abnormalities such as development of egg cell without nuclei. cc (HIL) Note: line W 23 (which carries the ig = indeterminate gametophyte mutation; Kermicle, 1969) is used as the female parent. CC (Donor Source) x Haploid (C) Chromosome Doubling DH Plant (CC)
  • 14. Indian Agricultural Research Institute New Delhi, India Transfer of CMS using paternal doubled haploids (HIL) X (Normal diploid) Chromosome Doubling cc S CC F1 C S CC S F DH CMS line
  • 15. Indian Agricultural Research Institute New Delhi, India Merits and Demerits of Paternal Doubled Haploids Merits: ๏ƒ˜ These are helpful in transferring cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) to a different genetic background within a short period of time (within 2-3 generations) ๏ƒ˜ Demerits: โ€ข Low frequency of haploid induction i.e. 1-2%. โ€ข Such DHs contain cytoplasm of the inducer and chromosomes from the donor parent, so this system is not very attractive to derive inbred lines for breeding.
  • 16. Indian Agricultural Research Institute New Delhi, India (2) Maternal Doubled Haploids (In Situ Gynogenesis) ๏ƒ˜ It is very common in maize breeding. ๏ƒ˜ In this method HIL is used as male parent. ๏ƒ˜ The first inducer recorded by Coe (1959) called โ€œStock 6,โ€ produced maternal haploids at a frequency of 2โ€“3%. CC (Donor Source) cc (HIL) x Haploid (C) Chromosome Doubling DH Plant (CC)
  • 17. Indian Agricultural Research Institute New Delhi, India Mechanism of maternal haploid induction ๏ถThe exact mechanism of maternal haploid induction have not yet been clearly understood. ๏ถThe regular double fertilization is distorted after pollination with the pollen of a haploid inducer line ๏ถOne sperm cell fuses with the central cell but the other sperm cell does not fuse with the egg cell. But a fertilized and dividing central cell stimulates the unfertilized haploid egg cell to develop into a haploid embryo (Chase, 1969).
  • 18. Indian Agricultural Research Institute New Delhi, India Steps involved in doubled haploid Production 1. Selection of individual for haploid induction 2. Induction of haploids 3. Identification of haploids 4. Chromosome doubling in the haploids 5. Seed production from D0 nursery
  • 19. Indian Agricultural Research Institute New Delhi, India (1) Selection of individual for haploid induction ๏ƒ˜ Individual plant can be selected by two ways- a) From a cross between two parents b) From heterozygous population. Selection of individual also depends on the breeding objective: ๏ƒ˜ For inbred development best plant is selected from a population or from a cross, as a donor and only superior haploid is developed as inbred after chromosome doubling. ๏ƒ˜ For development of mapping population F1 from contrast parents is used as a donor and all haploids are used to make DH population.
  • 20. Indian Agricultural Research Institute New Delhi, India (2) Induction of haploids CC (Donor Source) cc (HIL) X Haploid (C) (2-3% haploid seeds) Note: In F1 there will be 3 types of seed- F1 2n 2n n 3n 2n 3n Normal Haploid Lethal
  • 21. Indian Agricultural Research Institute New Delhi, India (3) Identification of haploids ๏ƒ˜ Following methods are used for haploid identification- a) Anthocyanin color marker, R1-nj (R1-navajo) system b) Purple root and purple stem marker system c) Transgenic method d) High oil marker method
  • 22. Indian Agricultural Research Institute New Delhi, India a) R1-nj (Navajo) marker ๏ƒ˜ Inducer lines carry dominant โ€œR1-nj alleleโ€ which codes for anthocyanin pigment which give purple coloration in seed. r1r1r1 X R1 - - r1r1 R1R1 R1r1r1 r1r1r1 r1r1 r1 Haploids Out crossed or Selfed seed Donor Source HIL
  • 23. Indian Agricultural Research Institute New Delhi, India R1-njโ€ฆ.Contโ€ฆ. Merits: ๏ƒ˜ It identifies haploids at seed level, hence no need to grow diploid seed. Demerits: ๏ƒ˜ Marker expression can be inhibited by anthocyanin inhibitor genes like C1-I ๏ƒ˜ It is a manual method of haploid identification. ๏ƒ˜ If source germplasm has โ€œR1-njโ€ allele, then this method canโ€™t be used. ๏ƒ˜ Intensity of color expression depends on moisture content of seed.
  • 24. Indian Agricultural Research Institute New Delhi, India b) Purple root and purple stem marker system ๏ƒ˜ Two genes Pl1 (Purple1) & B1 (Booster1) involved in this system, which can impart purple or red color to the plant tissues. ๏ƒ˜ Pl1 (Purple1) conditions sunlight independent purple pigmentation in plant tissues, and B1 (Booster1) conditions sunlight dependent purple pigmentation in most of the above ground plant tissues (Coe, 1994). ๏ƒ˜ HILs like MHI and Procera have this system along with R1-nj. Diploid seedlings: Purple roots and stems Haploid seedlings: No coloration
  • 25. Indian Agricultural Research Institute New Delhi, India Purple rootโ€ฆContโ€ฆ. Merits: ๏ƒ˜ It can be used in a wide array of maize germplasm as root color phenotype is very rare in maize germplasm. ๏ƒ˜ It is recommended when the R1-nj marker is not effective. Demerits: ๏ƒ˜ It demands germination of large numbers of induced seeds, which is labor intensive. ๏ƒ˜ Expression of the B1 and Pl1 genes are affected by plant growth conditions, especially sunlight and temperature.
  • 26. Indian Agricultural Research Institute New Delhi, India c) Transgenic method ๏ƒ˜ In this method, Transgenic HILs are used which carry herbicide tolerance gene. ๏ƒ˜ At seedling stage screening is done by herbicide application. ๏ƒ˜ Haploids are herbicide susceptible and diploids are herbicide tolerant. ๏ƒ˜ In order to identify haploids herbicide is applied on small portion of seedling. ๏ƒ˜ The application of transgenic haploid inducers may not be possible in many countries due to restrictions on the use of transgenics.
  • 27. Indian Agricultural Research Institute New Delhi, India d) High oil marker method ๏ƒ˜ This method can facilitate mechanical screening by using NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) technique. ๏ƒ˜ Haploids seeds and diploid seeds naturally show differences in their average kernel oil content with haploids showing 0.6โ€“ 0.8% less oil than the diploids, as >85% oil accumulates in the seed embryo (Rotarenco et al. 2007; Melchinger et al. 2014). ๏ƒ˜ Several high oil inducers such as CAUHOI (7.8% Oil content), UH600 (10.8% OC) and UH601 (11.7% OC) has been developed. 2n n 3n 3n Diploid (High oil content) Haploid (low oil content)
  • 28. Indian Agricultural Research Institute New Delhi, India High oilโ€ฆ.Contโ€ฆโ€ฆ Merits: ๏ƒ˜ It identifies haploids at seed level. ๏ƒ˜ This method can be automated. ๏ƒ˜ It can be applicable in all germplasm including land races and wild relatives of maize. Demerits: ๏ƒ˜ Requires inducer with high oil content for clear difference between haploids and diploids. ๏ƒ˜ Requires high cost for establishment of NMR-based automation platform.
  • 29. Indian Agricultural Research Institute New Delhi, India (4) Chromosome doubling in the haploids ๏ƒ˜ A commonly used chromosome doubling agent is colchicine, which is a water-soluble alkaloid produced from the bulbs of Colchicum autumnale. ๏ƒ˜ Colchicine binds to tubulins and prevents the formation of spindle microtubules during the metaphase stage of mitosis. ๏ƒ˜ 4-5 days old seedlings are used for colchicine treatment. ๏ƒ˜ A solution with 0.04% colchicine and 0.5% DMSO is used for chromosomal doubling. ๏ƒ˜ Seedlings are kept in the colchicine tank for 12 hours. ๏ƒ˜ Seedlings are washed at least three times by distilled water.
  • 30. Indian Agricultural Research Institute New Delhi, India Steps involved in chromosome doubling (E) Recovery of treated D0 seedlings in a greenhouse (A) Germination of putative haploid seed (D0 seed) on paper towels. (B) Cutting of the coleoptile tip of D0 seedlings to facilitate better penetration of colchicine. (C) Placement of coleoptile cut D0 seedling into mesh bags. (D) Treatment of D0 seedlings with colchicine in an iron tank.
  • 31. Indian Agricultural Research Institute New Delhi, India (5) Seed production from D0 nursery ๏ƒ˜ Colchicine treated seedlings are very weak, hence need to be handled with care under controlled condition. ๏ƒ˜ In D0 nursery there is limited number of pollen production. ๏ƒ˜ There will be fertile and sterile pollens, so fertile pollens are used for selfing ๏ƒ˜ During selfing โ€œfalseโ€ diploid should be discarded to avoid contamination. ๏ƒ˜ Self pollinated ear should be harvested after physiological maturity. ๏ƒ˜ Each D0 derived seed will represent distinct DH line. ๏ƒ˜ In D1 nursery seed is multiplied by selfing and DH lines are developed.
  • 32. Indian Agricultural Research Institute New Delhi, India Case study Objectives : (1) To study the differences between haploids and diploid seedlings in terms of radicle length (RL), coleoptile length (CL), and number of lateral seminal roots (NLSR) during early growth stages (2) To validate the use of such traits for haploid identification in populations with complete inhibition of Navajo marker (3) To determine if seedling traits can be effectively used for early identification of false positives.
  • 34. Indian Agricultural Research Institute New Delhi, India Results & Conclusion ๏ƒ˜ Significant differences could be noted among the diploids and haploids for RL, CL, NLSR, thickness of coleoptile, thickness of radicle and presence of root hairs upon visual inspection
  • 35. Indian Agricultural Research Institute New Delhi, India Advantages of doubled haploids ๏ƒ˜ Development of complete homozygous line in 2-3 generations ๏ƒ˜ Perfect fulfillment with DUS criteria for variety protection ๏ƒ˜ Require less time and labor for development of new breeding lines ๏ƒ˜ Higher frequency of desirable homozygous plant ๏ƒ˜ DH can be developed from any material like F1, F2 and Landraces
  • 36. Indian Agricultural Research Institute New Delhi, India Disadvantages of doubled haploids ๏ƒ˜ The main disadvantage with the DH population is that selection cannot be imposed on the population. ๏ƒ˜ Another disadvantage associated with the double haploidy is the cost involved in establishing tissue culture and growth facilities. ๏ƒ˜ The over-usage of doubled haploidy may reduce genetic variation in breeding germplasm.
  • 37. Indian Agricultural Research Institute New Delhi, India Applications of DHs in plant breeding ๏ƒ˜ Mapping quantitative trait loci ๏ƒ˜ Backcross breeding ๏ƒ˜ Genetic maps ๏ƒ˜ Genetic studies ๏ƒ˜ Genomics ๏ƒ˜ Elite crossing ๏ƒ˜ Cultivar development
  • 38. Indian Agricultural Research Institute New Delhi, India Conclusions ๏ƒ˜ Technological advances have now provided DH protocols for most plant genera. ๏ƒ˜ The number of species amenable to doubled haploidy has reached a staggering 250 in just a few decades. ๏ƒ˜ Response efficiency has also improved with gradual removal of species from recalcitrant category. Hence it will provide greater efficiency of plant breeding
