title: [In vitro androgenesis response of durum wheat disomic substitution].
abstract: The variety 'Langdon' and its substitution series were used to evaluate the effect of each substituted chromosome of the A and B genomes on the in vitro androgenetic potential. This study showed the implication of chromosomes 1B and 5B in repressing embryogenesis. Genes located on these chromosomes seem to have an inhibitor effect. The substitution of these chromosomes by their homeologous ones from the D genome increased the number of embryos while with the presence of the original genes the number of embryos was less than in the control. Chromosome 5B is also especially involved in the regeneration of green plants. The genetic control is inhibitory; this explains the difficulty of obtaining good levels of in vitro androgenesis in durum wheat. In this study no effect of the D genome on the androgenetic response of the substitution lines was observed.
