Effect of F1 and F2 generations on genetic variability and working steps of doubled haploid production in maize.

For doubled haploid (DH) production in maize, F1 generation has been the most frequently used for haploid induction due to facility in the process. However, using F2 generation would be a good alternative to increase genetic variability owing to the additional recombination in meiosis. Our goals wer...
