Abstract:

Breeding barley is a long-term process that requires multiple cycles of self-pollination to achieve complete homozygosity. Doubled haploid (DH) production leads to complete homozygosity in a single generation, thus bypassing the complications of field, greenhouse, or off-season generation advance. Completely homozygous material facilitates the phenotyping of complex traits and simplifies integration of phenotype with genotype for gene discovery and characterization. Here we present a summary of our USWBSI-supported DH production metrics.
