Technology Description

  • Male sterile lines for hybrid seed production are very important. However maintaining them is very difficult.           
  • In view of this,  protocol for multiplication of male sterile plants through tissue culture has been  developed  for two CMS male sterile lines No 3 (IIHR 358) and 4 (IIHR 359) of cauliflower using immature curd & shoot tip explants respectively

 

Products and  By- products

NA

 

Technology Benefits

  • The CMS lines must be maintained by repeated crossing to a  maintainer line that is genetically identical except that it possesses normal cytoplasm and is therefore male-fertile.
  • This technology enables you to save land, labour & time ( generations)
  • Tissue cultured male sterile plants can be raised without any problems of crossing

 

Target segment /End User Profile

  • Tissue culture and vegetable seed industry

 

Market potential

  • The importance of male sterile lines for hybrid seed production is very well acknowledged. This technology enables you to save land, labour & time ( generations)

 

Investment Required

  • Can be taken  as an adjunct to facilitate breeding programmes in  a pre-existing tissue culture facility
