Gresshoff & Doy Basal Medium

  • Product ID: G371

Introduction:

Contains the macro- and micronutrients as described by Gresshoff & Doy (1974).
This medium was originally developed for the growth of haploid callus and plants from anthers of Arabidopsis thalian a. Anthers cultured in late prophase of meiosis gave best results for haploid plantlet development. This medium has been used for haploid plantlet production in tomato, barley, and grape.
