Haploidisation is a biotechnological method used to obtain plants with improved traits that are of use to humans. Lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.), a well-known and popular leafy vegetable, is consumed worldwide. Its haploid form would provide a good basis for producing a pure line of plants (doubled haploids) allowing new varieties to be regenerated. The main aim of this work was to develop an effective...
Common polypody (Polypodium vulgare L.) belongs to desiccation-tolerant ferns. The structure of storage parenchyma of their rhizome was examined by transmission electron microscopy after dehydration and subsequent rewetting. Analysis revealed that treatment with supplemental abscisic acid resulted in protection of cells against ultrastructural damage compared to untreated ones. Dehydration rate appears...
For the first time, hybrid embryos and plantlets were obtained from in vitro-pollinated whole catkins of Salix viminalis with pollen grains of Populus tremula, P. tomentosa and P. alba. Only hybrid embryos were obtained from cross S. viminalis with P. lasiocarpa. Pollen of poplar species germinated on stigmas of willow and some pollen tubes were observed growing into the ovary. After 36–48 h of pollination,...
