Abstract

Haploids are autonomous, sporophytic plants that have gametophytic chromosome number because they originate from a gametic cell in the embryo sac or in the pollen grain. The haploid embryo can arise from an egg cell (gynogenesis) or from a gametophytic cell other than the egg cell (apogamy) or a male gamete (androgenesis). It can also originate from the microspore nucleus before first pollen grain mitosis when pollen or anthers are cultured in vitro. Haploids arising from strictly diploid species are known as monoploid; they possess a single genome in contrast to haploids derived from polyploid species which would possess more than one genome.
