A period of four days preincubation at 25 °C on a medium containing mannitol was found to be superior to those pretreatments requiring incubation at 4 °C. In addition, the yield of green plants was improved by orienting anthers 'flat' on the medium during mannitol preincubation, and reducing the num

Barley anthers from cold pretreated spikes produced no or few calluses when plated with both loculi in contact with the medium ('flat'). When anthers were plated with only one loculus in contact with the medium ('up'), a high proportion of the anthers produced calluses. The top loculus of the 'up' a
The effect of anther orientation on culture response has been examined in a range of barley cultivars of agronomic importance. Anther orientation did not significantly affect the percentage of anthers responding. However, orientation of the anthers in the 'up' position with one lobe in contact with
