Effect of the 1B/1R translocation on anther culture ability in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)
Abstract
Using two varieties, their reciprocal hybrids, F8 lines and doubled haploids, results confirmed that three genetic components are involved in wheat anther culture ability, viz embryo induction frequency, regeneration ability and the frequency of albinism. In these experiments, no significant maternal effects were noticed. For embryo yields, transgressive lines were obtained from hybrids between distant genotypes. Regeneration of green plants depended upon two independent traits: regeneration ability and the frequency of albinos. F8 lines and two doubled haploids equaled the 50% regeneration rate of the hybrids, but they only regenerated green plants. Based upon cytological examination and gliadin patterns, it is suggested that genes favoring regeneration ability could be linked to the 1BL-1RS translocated chromosome from Aurora.
