Interactive genotypic influence of triticale and wheat on their crossability and haploid induction under varied agroclimatic regimes

Comparative pollination efficiency of freshly harvested pollen ofImperata cylindricaandZea maysfor haploid induction in bread wheat

“…Such results are quite encouraging for enhancing the efficiency of the existing haploid induction system. The difference in the embryo formation frequency between DH 40 and Saptdhara depicts the role of genotypes and their interaction with the pollen and environment in embryo formation which is in agreement with the findings by Rather et al (2013) and Badiyal et al (2014) who showed the role of genotypes and their interaction with environment on the embryo formation frequency. No field studies on the pollen viability of I. cylindrica are available in literature to compare with the present investigation.…”

“…Recently wheat × Imperata cylindrica (Chaudhary et al 2005) system has emerged as a highly efficient alternative for revolutionizing the doubled haploid production scenario. This system has responded to haploid induction significantly better than wheat × Z. mays system, not only in wheat × wheat hybrids (Chaudhary et al 2005;2013a and2013b;Chaudhary 2008a;2008b;2009;2010a;2010b;2012;2013a and2013b;Kaila et al 2012;Rather 2012;Tayeng et al 2012) but also been explored in triticale × wheat Pratap and Chaudhary 2007;Badiyal et al 2014) and wheat × rye derivatives (Kishore et al 2011) efficiently, where wheat × maize system failed altogether.…”

Relative efficiency of maize and Imperata cylindrica for haploid induction in Triticum durum following chromosome elimination‐mediated approach of doubled haploid breeding

“…In a more recent study, Badiyal et al. () has also proposed I. cylindrica as an efficient source of haploid induction in triticale × wheat hybrids. The earlier reports of haploid production in tetraploid wheat, however, supported maize as more efficient haploid‐inducing pollen source than Hordeum bulbosum (O'Donoughue and Bennett ).…”

Success in Inducing Effective Rooting in Triticale x Wheat and Wheat x Wheat Derived Haploid Plantlets in Cocopeat Mixture

“…But wheat x maize system has also been utilized across the globe being genotype non-specific, yet, it could not draw positive results in wheat-rye and triticale-wheat hybrids. The inquisitive search for more responsive pollinators for chromosome elimination system led Chaudhary et al, (2005) to invent a dynamic Imperata cylindrica-mediated chromosome elimination technique which has not only shown overwhelming success over wheat x maize system in wheat-wheat hybrids (Mayel et al, 2016), but has also recorded a huge success in wheat-rye (Kishore et al, 2012) and triticalewheat hybrids (Badiyal et al, 2014; and durum wheat (Mahato and Chaudhary 2015). Thus, I. cylindrica mediated system has emerged as an efficient alternative to wheat x maize system for DH breeding (Chaudhary et al, 2005;Pratap et al, 2005).…”
