Popis: Doubled haploid (DH) technology reduces the time required to obtain homozygous genotypes and accelerates plant breeding among other advantages. It is established in major crop species such as wheat, barley, maize, and canola. DH lines can be produced by both in vitro and in vivo methods and the latter is focused here. The major steps involved in in vivo DH technology are haploid induction, haploid selection/identification, and haploid genome doubling. Herein, we elaborate on the various steps of DH technology in maize breeding from haploid induction to haploid genome doubling to produce DH lines. Detailed protocols on the following topics are discussed: in vivo haploid inducer line development, haploid selection using seed and root color markers and automated seed sorting based on embryo oil content using QSorter, artificial genome doubling, and the identification of genotypes with spontaneous haploid genome doubling (SHGD) ability.
