| Abstract: | Parthenogenetic haploid embryos were induced in culinary melon (Cucumis melo var. acidulus) after pollination with gamma irradiated (250 Gy) pollen. Globular to cotyledonary embryos were observed in the fruit harvested 3 wk after pollination. Embryo rescue and plant regeneration was achieved by culturing cotyledonary embryos on E20A medium. Ploidy analysis of regenerates revealed that the plantlets formed were haploids (n=12). |
