Development of intermonoploid somatic hybrids of potato and their molecular analysis based on polymorphism for retroelement Tst1

Inbred lines for hybrid crop production have been a mainstay of plant breeding. Biotechnological approaches to hasten the process are available including anther culture to halve the genome and protoplast fusion to create hybrids between incompatible partners. We applied these techniques to potato to...
