Production of haploid and doubled haploid marigold (Tagetes erecta L.) plants through androgenesis
The main aim of this investigation was to improve the technique of developing doubled haploids in Tagetes erecta L. by anther culture and thereby doubling the chromosomes. Heat shock pre-treatment was given to the anthers of both marigold genotypes 'Desi Orange' and 'Desi Yellow' post culturing on enriched MS (EMS) med...
