Advances in Haploid Production in Higher Plants edited by Alisher Touraev, Brian P. Forster, Shri Mohan Jain.

The discovery of haploid Datura plants in 1964 initiated great excitement in plant breeding and genetics communities. Recent years have witnessed a resurgence of activities especially in developing protocols, identifying genes and mechanisms and large scale commercial take up. The identification of...
