Abstract
Doubled haploids for achieving stable homozygosity rapidly are of considerable interest for plant breeders. The functions of haploids produced, both through induced parthenogenesis and anther culture are the same. The priority of parthenogenesis lies in that it does not require a well-equipped laboratory, it can be manipulated in the field without culture medium, and the procedure is comparatively simple.
