Haploid production by outcrossing with inducers is one of the key technologies to revolutionize breeding. A promising approach for developing haploid inducers is by manipulating centromere-specific histone H3 (CENH3/CENPA)1. GFP-tailswap, a CENH3-based inducer, induces paternal haploids at around 30% and maternal haploids at around 5% (ref. 2). However, male sterility of GFP-tailswap makes high-demand maternal haploid induction more challenging.
