Abstract
Several workers have successfully crossed Triticum aestivum L. with Zea mays L. (Zenkteler and Nitzsche, 1984; Laurie and Bennett, 1986) and Tripsacum dactyloides (Riera-Lizarazu and Mujeeb-Kazi, 1993), which has led to documented production of polyhaploid plants. There have also been successful crosses between Z. mays and T. turgidum L. as well as other Triticum and Aegilops spp. (O’Donoughue and Bennett, 1988). Successful fertilizations have also been accomplished in crosses between wheat and Sorghum bicolor L. Moench, sorghum (Laurie and Bennett, 1988a,b); Pennisetum glaucum R. Br., pearl millet (Laurie, 1989); Z. mays ssp. mexicana, teosinte (Ushiyama et al., 1991); Hordeum vulgare L., barley (Laurie and Bennett, 1988c); and Secale cereale L., rye (Laurie et al., 1990).
