Abstract
Frequencies of haploid production in wheat were compared between the two methods of anther culture and intergeneric crossing with Hordeum bulbosum L. using three varieties and their reciprocal F1 hybrids. Average frequencies of embryo and plant production per 100 florets were 5. 02 embryoids and 1.27 plants (including 0.76 albino plants) through the anther culture technique, 55.0 embryos and 39. 4 green plants through the bulbosum technique, indicating that the bulbosum technique was obviously much more efficient. Problems to be solved for applying both methods to all the wheat genotypes were discussed.
