Abstract:
The methods and technique of inducing polyploid plants of Platycodon grandiflorum were done. Many autotetraploid plant lines were induced by colchicine in vitro successfully. The identification of main agronomic characteristics of these clonal lines was conduced in the fields. The results showed the giant type occurred in tetraploid plants comparing with that in diploid plants. It may show prospective way in developing new varieties with high yield and high content of useful compounds.

Most plants are seed plants—characterized by seeds, pollen, and reduced gametophytes. Seed plants include gymnosperms and angiosperms.

Trihybrid Crosses
Some of Mendel’s crosses examined three pairs of contrasting characteristics. Such a cross is called a trihybrid cross. A trihybrid cross is a combination of three individual monohybrid crosses. For example, plant height (tall vs. short), seed shape (round vs. wrinkled), and seed color (yellow vs. green).
The F1 generation plants of a trihybrid cross are heterozygous for all three traits and produce eight gametes. Upon self-fertilization, these gametes have an equal chance to...
