1 Introduction
1.1 Polyploid breeding is an important part in poplar breeding
● ●

Triploid white poplar trees Triploid and aneuploid hybrids in Populus trichocarpa × P. deltoides



Triploidy were found in the cultivar poplar clones in section Aigeiros

1.2 Mechanisms of 2n gamete formation in plant
● ● ● ● ●

Premeiotic doubling Omission of the first or second meiotic division Abnormal spindle Abnormal cytokinesis Nuclear fusion

FDR ( first division restitution ) : Contains non-sister chromatids SDR ( second division restitution): Contains two sister chromatids

1 Introduction
1.3 The objective of this study


Poplar can produce 2n gamete naturally or by artificial induction Elucidation of the cytological mechanisms of 2n gamete formation has been seldom in poplar. To detect and elucidate the mechanisms of 2n pollen formation in diploid poplar Results from this research may offer a more effective method for polyploid breeding in poplar in section Aigeiros.

    Ovules begin life as a small projection into the cavity of the ovary. Still remaining attached to the ovary wall by a placenta, the ovule bends as it grow and develop. In the beginning, the ovule is a group of similar cells that is called the nucellus. The nucellus contains the embryo sac. As development continues, the mass of cells differentiates to form the inner and outer integument that surrounds and protects the nucellus, but leaves a small opening called the micropyle. This opening is to allow male gametes to pass and interact with the female gamete (haploid egg cell) located in the embryo sac. Each anther contains four pollen sacs. Pollen grains develop inside each pollen sac that begins with a mass of large pollen mother cells in each sac that are all diploid. The wall thickens in each pollen grain and forms an inner layer called the intine and an outer layer called the exine. Surface patterns are different on pollen grains from different species. After pollen grains have matured, the anther dries out and splits open, which releases the pollen. This process is called…

    To begin the fast plants experiment, each group received the F1 generation seeds for their designated phenotypes. After receiving the seeds, the seeds were then planted into Styrofoam “quads” allowing the seeds to germinate. The seeds were then allowed to grow under a fluorescent light bank for 5 weeks. Throughout the growing of the seeds, each plant was continuously watered and adjusted the light bank to help the plant grow more efficiently. After letting the seeds germinate for approximately 14 days, after two or three flowers had opened, a bee stick was used to transfer pollen from one plant to another. Each group then used the bee stick again 2 and 4 days after the initial pollination. Once all of the transferring was complete, each unopened bud on the plants were pinched off. Approximately 21 days after pollination, the seeds were ready to be harvested. Each quad was removed from the watering tray and allowed to dry for 5 days. After the plants were dry, each group removed the dry seedpods from the plant. We then removed the seeds from the pod. To start the germination process, a moistened piece of filter paper was placed into a petri dish. 40 seeds were neatly placed into each petri dish until there were no seeds remaining. Once all the seeds were placed in the petri dish, the petri dishes were placed in a plastic bag and set to germinate for approximately 48 to 96 hours in the window at room temperatures.…

    Meiosis is the process of cell division in which gametes are produced. It results in four haploid (IN) cells from two diploid (2N) cells (Cyr). In meiosis I, crossing over and independent assortment of the chromosomes occur. These two processes increase the genetic variation within the cell either benefiting or hurting the cell’s ability to adapt (natural selection). After these two events have occurred, the chromosomes will then proceed through all four stages and produce two daughter cells (Cyr). In meiosis II, the two daughter cells each again proceed…

    DNA must replicate before mitosis or meiosis can occur. If daughter cells are to receive a full set of genetic information, a duplicate copy of DNA must be available. Before DNA replication occurs, each chromosome consists of a single long strand of DNA called a chromatid. When a diploid cell undergoes meiosis, four unique haploid daughter cells are produced. It is important for gametes to be haploid…
