KNO3 concentration was found to significantly affect the anther culture of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). When KNO3 was increased from 0 to 15mM (in cultivar Jinghua 1) or from 10 to 15 mM (in cultivars 2531-10, Xiaoyan 759 and Norin 10), the callus induction frequency increased significantly. When K

โฆ Synopsis
Stamen culture of several Solanum species and interspecific hybrids was performed and each stamen was scored for presence and origin of callus. Each species and hybrid has a characteristic callus growth pattern - either no growth (0), callus growth from the filament (F), or callus growth from the anther (A). Characteristic growth types of the interspecific hybrids indicate that callus growth takes precedence over no growth. Hybrids between F and A species exhibit mainly paternal passage of either characteristic callus type. Possible explanations for this pattern of inheritance are male plastome factors or imprinting of paternal genes. The latter explanation is presently preferred.
