An intergeneric hybrid was successfully obtained by usinovary culture. The hybrid status was confirmed by cytology, morphology, fertilityisozyme and miosis analysis. The seed setting rate was 0.0072%. An amphidiploid of thhybrid was also produced by the use of chromosome-doubling method with 0.1% colchicinetreatment.
