Finally, it is essential to develop protocols for easy and rapid development of haploid through andro- and gynogenesis.Homozygous lines through doubled haploids can be of much use in deducing the genetic basis of many highly important agronomic traits in mulberry and also to develop genetic maps and QTLs for important traits like leaf yields, leaf quality and stress resistance. These would be essential techniques for the long-term preservation of important mulberry germplasm and genetic resources
