Chromosome doubling has been widely explored as a bridge to help gene introgression between different ploidy levels both between and within species for crop improvement ( Hayward et al., 1993 ; Meru, 2012 ; Wu et al., 2011 ). Both fruit and seed

ploidy level of plants was detected using a flow cytometer (Partec, Münster, Germany). Young leaves of plants obtained from anther culture were put into petri dishes containing 400 µL extraction buffer (Partec 05–5002 CyStain ® ultraviolet Precise P

-cedar ( Chiba, 1951 ) was used to select 237 seedlings for transplantation. After 1 month of growth [180 d after treatment (DAT)], the ploidy level of the seedlings was determined using flow cytometry. Identification of polyploidy. Flow cytometry, as

that were 20% to 70% higher ( Cameron and Hartley, 1990 ). In addition to the octoploid species, several lower-ploidy Fragaria species (2×, 4×, and 6×) have desirable characteristics such as extreme vigor ( Harbut et al., 2009 ), unique flavors

these chemicals for chromosome doubling varies depending on the plant species, concentration levels, and treatment duration. Restored fertility, increased flower and leaf sizes, and shortened internodes often accompany ploidy manipulation ( Pryor and

cytometric analysis was used to determine ploidy level as was done for C. sativa by Bagheri and Mansouri (2015) and Parsons et al. (2019) . For flow cytometric analysis, 50 mg of young leaf tissue was harvested per plant. A modified version of the
