Flax cultivation has a strong future, driven by demand for sustainable fibers, health foods, and bio-based materials. Success depends on innovation, climate adaptation, and breeding efforts. Doubled haploid technology accelerates breeding, but current methods in flax, like anther culture and gynogenesis, are inefficient and costly. There is a need for an effective isolated microspore regeneration protocol. Fytagoras specializes in developing such protocols, starting with selecting the right flower bud stage and isolating microspores for cell division induction. With expertise in doubled haploid technology and experience in crops like tomato and potato, Fytagoras is a key partner for seed companies seeking advanced breeding solutions. The image shows flower bud stages and the isolated anthers and microspores.
Potato genetic pool determines variation in true doubled haploid formation efficiency
From heterozygous diploid potato plants, we produce true homozygous doubled haploids via androgenesis. Efficiency, measured as the percentage of true
