Haploid peach trees ( Prunus persicaBatsch, IX = In = 8) were evaluated for the presence of unreduced eggs as indicated by the production of normal fruit with viable seed following open pollination. Two of seven haploid genotypes produced unreduced eggs: 'PAlal-1N' and 'PRRL1-1N' produced normal fruit from 0.44% and 0.35% of the flowers studied, respectively. Unreduced pollen was also observed in haploid trees and occurred in all anthers sampled.
