Haploids in Conifer Species: Characterization and Chromosomal Integrity of a Maritime Pine Cell Line

Haploids in Conifer Species: Characterization and Chromosomal Integrity of a Maritime Pine Cell Line

Haploids are a valuable tool for genomic studies in higher plants, especially those with huge genome size and long juvenile periods, such as conifers. In these species, megagametophyte cultures have been widely used to obtain haploid callus and somatic embryogenic lines. One of the main problems ass...
