“…Particularly in woody plants, generally characterized by a long reproductive cycle, a high degree of heterozygosity, large size and, sometimes, self-incompatibility, it is not possible to obtain homozygous breeding lines through conventional methods involving several generations of selfing and homozygous DHs produced through gametic embryogenesis, provide new opportunities for genetic studies and plant breeding [9][10][11] . Considerable research has been carried out since the 1970s to obtain haploids for ISSN Print: 0972-060X ISSN Online: 0976-5026 fruit tree breeding through gametic embryogenesis, but they were not always successful 9,10,19 . Many haploids and DHs are under observations in many fruit tree crops such as citrus, apple, papaya and peach, but it takes considerable time to characterize them 7,8,13,20,21,22,25,26 .…”
