Summary Eight Hordeum bulbosum selections were produced from a cross between Cb 2920/4 and Cb 2929/1, two genotypes widely used in doubled haploid breeding programmes. The selections were hybridized with barley to evaluate their ability to produce high proportions of well-differentiated haploid embryos compared with Cb 2929/1 as control. We report here an initial small-scale investigation followed by a larger-scale test in two different environments to assess seed setting, haploid embryo differentiation rates and VB hybrid formation. These VB embryos contain both parental sets of chromosomes and occur more frequently in the glasshouse during the winter. Two of the eight selections were identified as combining the desirable characteristics of both parents, namely high seed setting on cv. Vada which is partially incompatible with H. bulbosum, large numbers of well-differentiated haploid embryos and a low incidence of VB hybrids. The selections are available for release to interested research workers and plant breeders
