The present study was designed to examine the effects of media support on the frequency of embryo and plant production from cultured anthers of soft-red winter wheat. Approximately twice as many embryos were produced when anthers were cultured in a liquid as compared to an agar-solidified medium. Up

Four winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and two spring wheat cultivars were evaluated in anther culture on three to four different media for their ability to initiate callus and green plants. Five media were used in the experiment: stored-potato medium with Ficoll 400, fresh-potato medium with Fico
Embryo age and composition of nutrient medium affected plant growth and response to vernalization in winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Root and shoot development was more in older than in younger excised embryos, and more in a medium without kinetin than in one with kinetin. Kinetin (2 mg/l) in t
