Zusammenfassung:Provided herein are delivery methods of a plant treatment agent to a tissue of a plant, wherein the tissue is contacted with a plant treatment agent and delivery is aided by a centrifugal force applied to the plant. Disclosed herein is the discovery that drastic improvements in treatment delivery occur when plants are centrifuged after being contacted, submerged, unsubmerged, soaked, etc. in a solution containing a plant treatment agent. In one embodiment, haploid plants contacted with a colchicine solution are centrifuged to reveal improved chromosomal doubling rates as compared to control plants.
