Key messageEpidendrum produces 2ngametes with high frequency. This paper is the first to report on multiple pathways for forming 2ngametes, meiotic defeats, and pre-meiotic chromosome doubling.AbstractUnreduced 2nreproductive cells are predominantly involved in pathways that lead to polyploid plants. Although one of the most common pathways for inducing 2ngametes is through meiotic defects, a small set of isolated species alternatively generates 2ngametes from tetraploid pollen mother cells in the pre-meiotic phase. Hence, determining the mechanisms underlying 2ngamete formation is critical to improving breeding programmes and understanding plant evolution. We investigated sporads to reveal the pathway(s) accounting for the formation and frequencies of 2ngametes in wild species and interspecific hybrids in the genusEpidendrum. We investigated different types of sporads with varying frequencies, sizes, and viability in the wild species and hybrids of the genusEpidendrum. Large tetrad-estimated pre-meiotic chromosome doubling was observed in wild species. TheEpidendrumis unique in that it forms 2npollens via two pathways, namely, meiotic defects and pre-meiotic chromosome doubling. These two pathways of 2npollen formation could influence the high diversity generation of polyploidy with different degrees of heterozygosity and genetic backgrounds in the genusEpidendrum. Therefore, these findings are proposed to influence polyploid breeding ofEpidendrumvia 2npollen, helping us understand evolution and speciation via unreduced 2ngamete formation in Orchidaceae.
