The resource consumption and costs for an increased agricultural production can be lowered only due to effective breeding for which biotechnologies and molecular genetics provide powerful tools. Among them, tissue cultures, clonal micropropagation, androgenesis, gynogenesis, and genetic transformation are widely used to obtain diversified forms and homozygous constant lines, and to speed up breeding process (J.M. Dunwell, 2010). Androgenesis and gynogenesis involve individual gametoclonal variab
