Doubled haploid(DH) technology accelerates the production of fully homozygous breeding lines within just 1 to 2 generations, representing a significant improvement over conventional methods that require 6 to 10 generations of selfing or backcrossing. The process involves four key steps: haploid induction, haploid identification, chromosome doubling, and the cultivation and application of doubled haploids(DHs). Haploid induction, which serves as the foundation of this system, currently employs two main approaches in rice: (1) the well-established anther culture method and (2) the emerging hybridization-based method utilizing haploid inducers (HIs). This review highlights recent advances in HI-mediated DH technology for rice, analyzes the technical challenges encountered at each step, and explores its future applications in rice breeding.
