Anther culture response of two wheat cultivars was tested with various barley-starch and maltose containing media. A considerable increase in direct plant regeneration (i.e. without transfer to a regeneration media) was obtained when medium was supplemented with silver nitrate. Up to 18 haploid plants per 100 anthers were directly produced. By using a single-step procedure, decreased costs in wheat haploid production can be effectively achieved
