Conclusions
Haploids are interesting components of the range of genetically aberrant types that are found when cytogenetic investigations are made into many angiosperm species. As a consequence of their unique constitution, they offer new possibilities for the investigations of many cytological and genetical problems. They also present a new range of problems intrinsic to their own chromosomal status.
The study of haploids over the last ten years has helped considerably in the elucidation of problems concerned with the evolution of crop species and with the cytogenetic organisation of allopolyploids and autopolyploids involved in plant breeding. Continued use of haploids as cytogenetical tools will undoubtedly assist in further studies in these fields.
It is perhaps the greatest obstacle to the wide use of haploids that no technique exists by which forms with gametic chromosome constitutions can be freely produced when required.
