Biberde (Capsicum annuum L.) Haploid Bitki Eldesinde Anter Kültürü Yöntemi

Abstract

Pepper is from the Capsicum genus of the Solonaceae family and is one of the vegetable species that is loved and grown in the world and in our country. After China and Mexico, Turkey ranks third in pepper production in the world. It is a great advantage for us that the climate structure of our country is suitable for vegetable cultivation. For this reason, it has caused a significant variety of pepper in the country, as it adapts to every region in its pepper. In this way, it has also ensured the enrichment of our gene resources. The richness of gene resources is an important factor in the success of breeding studies. One of the purposes of breeding studies is to develop varieties. It is used in breeding studies with anther culture method in pepper, and new varieties are developed in this way. Because of obtaining homozygous lines in plants, haploid plant production has an important place in plant breeding. In this study, the definition and application of anther culture and the factors affecting success, the researches made with the anther culture method in the world and in our country and the developments in recent years are discussed.
