Abstract: The anthers of fertile plants from 4 gerenations of Tal wheat by recurrent bulk selection and that from 3 generations of abortive short-sstraw Tal wheat by multiple hybridization with multi~parents were cultured respectively in 1991 and 1994. Results showed that:1. the high generation of Tal wheat had higher frequency of callus induction and green-seedling differentiation, same as theconventional hybrids between cultivars, their callus induction and green-seedling differentiation frequencies trended to decline with the increase of generations, 2.there was a significant difference of anther culture effect in different cross modes, in which the highest callus induction occured in population by recurrent selection, the second in progeny of multiple hybridization with multi-parents and the lowest in single cross of Tal wheat with stable characters in backcross, 3. the genotype had obvious effect on the frequencies of callus induction and green-seedling differentiation.
