Abstract: The present invention relates to haploid oil palm plants and homozygous doubled haploid oil palm plants. The invention also relates to methods for producing and selecting haploid and doubled haploid plants. More particularly, but not exclusively, the method may be used for selecting haploid and doubled haploid oil palm plants. Haploid and doubled haploid plants are selected by a large-scale screening based on a combination of the phenotype with the use of molecular methods combined with flow cytometry techniques to identify haploid and doubled haploid plants. More particularly, a method for selecting haploid and doubled haploid plants is described comprising: (a) germinating seeds; (b) selecting seedlings with atypical phenotype; (c) assessing heterozygosity using markers; (d) isolating cells from the seedlings and determining the DNA content of the cells; and (e) isolating and purifying the DNA and using defined molecular markers to characterise the genotype of the plant. The haploid oil palm plants may be used for producing homozygous doubled haploid oil palms: doubled haploids may be intercrossed to produce uniform F 1 hybrids of superior properties.

Abstract: A device for controlling the polarization state of transmitted light comprises first and second cell walls enclosing a layer of a chiral liquid crystal material. The material has a uniformly orientated helical axis in the absence of an applied field, and electrodes for applying an electric field substantially normal to the helical axis. An applied electric field flexoelectrically couples to the molecules, causing distortion of the helical structure and hence changes the bulk birefringence of the cell.
