Androgenesis

The term androgenesis refers to plant regeneration directly from microscope culture under in vitro conditions. By sporophytic divisions, multicellular microspores develop within the anthers. Pollen embryos will be developed by the differentiation of these multicellular spores, which finally develops into haploid plants, or indirect when the microspores form first a callus, which then to regenerates plantlets. There are two ways for in vitro production of androgenic haploids, (a) Anther culture, as the name suggests culture using anthers (b) Isolated pollen (microscopic) culture. Plants produced through this method have been recognized as a valuable tool in plant breeding as it can shorten breeding cycle, enhance the selection efficiency of useful recessive agronomic traits and fix agronomic characters in homozygous state.
