In a paper published on aBIOTECH, the authors developed an efficient haploid identification (HID) system for wheat by ...

A research team has developed an AI-based approach to streamline the evaluation of maize haploid fertility restoration, a key bottleneck in double haploid (DH) breeding.

A common strategy to create high-yielding plants is hybrid breeding. However, getting the inbred lines in the first place can be a hassle. In maize, the use of so-called 'haploid inducers' provides a ...

The production of doubled haploids (DH) has become a necessary tool in advanced plant breeding institutes and commercial companies for breeding many crop species. However, the development of new, more ...

Androgenetic haploids can be produced by holding zebrafish eggs in coho salmon ovarian fluid, irradiating them with 10,000 R of x-rays, and then fertilizing them with normal sperm. To produce diploid ...

Stem cell research holds huge potential for medicine and human health. In particular, human embryonic stem cells (ESCs), with their ability to turn into any cell in the human body, are essential to ...
