Abstract

Anther culture is an efficient biotechnological tool in modern plant breeding programs to produce new varieties and parental lines in hybrid seed productions. However, some bottlenecks-low induction rate, genotype dependency, albinism-restrict the widespread utilization of in vitro anther culture in rice breeding, especially in Oryza sativa ssp. indica (indica) genotypes, while an improved efficient protocol can shorten the process of breeding. Three different induction media (N6NDK, N6NDZ, Ali-1) and four plant regeneration media (mMSNBK1, MSNBK3, MSNBKZ1, MSNBKZ2) were tested with five indica rice genotypes to increase the efficiency of in vitro androgenesis (number of calli and regenerated green plantlets). The production of calli was more efficient on the N6NDK medium with an average 88.26 calli/100 anthers and N6NDZ medium with an average of 103.88 calli/100 anthers as compared to Ali-1 with an average of 6.96 calli/100 anthers. The production of green plantlets was greater when calli was produced on N6NDK medium (2.15 green plantlets/100 anthers) compared when produced on to N6NDZ medium (1.18 green plantlets/100 anthers). Highest green plantlets production (4.7 green plantlets/100 anthers) was achieved when mMSNBK1 plant regeneration medium was used on calli produced utilizing N6NDK induction medium. In the best overall treatment (N6NDK induction medium and mMSNBK1 plant regeneration medium), four tested genotypes produced green plantlets. However, the genotype…
