H APLOIDS (2nzz24) of the common potato (2n = 48) provide promising material for attacking many problems concerned with genetics, cytology, and breeding of this species (3). Large numbers of haploids from a wide range of Solanum tuberosum L. selections are essential if their potential is to be explored. Though numerous haploids have been obtained follow
Species crosses, polyploidy manipulations, induced mutation, and the refinement and use of biological systems, such as male sterility, also led to enhanced germplasm.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
