Definition and other additional information on True breeding from Biology-Online.org dictionary. ... With plants, true breeding occurs when plants produce only offspring of the same variety when they self-pollinate. For instance, a plant that has blue flowers will produce only seeds that will grow into plants that have...

Mendel started his experiments with true-breeding plant varieties, which he hybridized (cross-pollinated) in experimental crosses. ... · The true-breeding parental plants of such a cross are called the P generation (parental).

The method achieves this through selective inhibition of phytotoxin-sensitive plant ovules, embryos and pollen. The method has particular application to the production of open pollinated and synthetic varieties of crop plants, such as alfalfa synthetic varieties. ... CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS ...

Before selection is used to fix or to eliminate qualitative phenotypes and produce true-breeding populations, the way the phenotypes are inherited should be determined. If a previous experiment has already determined the mode of inheritance, that information can be used to design the breeding programme.
