Production of embryogenic tissue from anther culture
Project
Project code: JKI-ZR-08-0029
Contract period: 01.01.2008
- 31.12.2014
Purpose of research: Applied research
A method has been elaborated for the regeneration of grapevine anthers of different genotypes via somatic embryogenesis. Cytological tests of the so far regenerated plants revealed no indication of haploidy. Further studies are focused on the development of high-yielding regeneration of cultivars important for viticulture. Somatic embryos have proved to be suited starting material for transformation studies.
