Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation Embryos and plantlets were produced in large numbers from callus formed by cultured hybrid grapevine anthers.
- Observation Anthers of Vitis vinifera produced small amounts of callus or failed to grow in vitro.
- Intervention effect Embryo yields were highest when anthers were cultured in darkness.
- Intervention effect Chilling embryos at 4 °C for 2 weeks was required for normal plantlets, whereas unchilled embryos produced mainly abnormal plantlets.
- Mechanism The ability to produce plantlets from cultured anthers is a genetically determined trait in grapes.
- Mechanism Maleness, as distinct from hermaphroditism, may be a predisposing factor for plantlet production from cultured grapevine anthers.
- Observation Callus derived from anthers contained both haploid and diploid cells.
- Observation All plantlets produced so far from grapevine anthers are diploid.
