Summary Germination and storage trials were carried out with pollen of several rose varieties. The pollen grains germinated well in a 15% sucrose solution with 40 ppm boric acid. Staining the pollen with a 0.1% tetrazolium solution and standardizing the degree of colour at which the pollen grains are counted as viable, provided a good viability estimate, simpler to carry out than in vitro germination. Germination capacity and staining ability of the pollen were greatly impeded-about halved-by dehydration during storage in desiccators at low humidity. This effect could be corrected by humidifying the pollen beforehand for about one hour, though this pre-treatment increased the percentage of germinated pollen grains more than the percentage stained. There was no difference between the two percentages in fresh or in deep-frozen pollen.Pollen stored at 1°C and high relative humidity soon lost its germination capacity: between 0 and 20% humidity a considerable proportion of the pollen remained viable for 9 months and longer. Storage for the same period in vacuum-sealed glass tubes at –24°C maintained viability as well or better and would probably prolong it further. Some of the cold-stored pollen induced a reasonable seed set after one year, a low seed set was obtained even after two years of storage at 1°C and low humidity. 相似文献

Summary Flowers of the pear cultivars Conference, Doyenné du Comice and Gieser Wildeman were pollinated with untreated and 50-krad-irradiated pollen. Fruitlets were sectioned at regular intervals up to 6 weeks after pollination. Tubes of the irradiated pollen grew slower, but within two weeks nearly as many embryos were initiated as in the case of untreated pollen. Thereafter, the proportion of degenerated embryos increased, although the endosperm sometimes persisted. Six weeks after pollination only about 21% of the seeds induced by the irradiated pollen still contained normal embryos. At or before that time in-vitro culture of the immature seeds will be necessary because few embryos survive until harvest. The irradiated pollen stimulated a rather large parthenocarpic fruit-set, presumably associated with endosperm rather than embryo development during the first 4–6 weeks after pollination. The possibilities of haploid production are discussed. 相似文献

Summary For the production of inbred lines and F1 hybrids in witloof-chicory information is wanted on characteristics such as the incompatibility system. These characteristics can only be studied properly if the influence of temperature and physiological status of the plant on pollen germination and seed production is known. Investigations were carried out with 9 self-incompatible (SI) and 6 self-compatible (SC) clones in glasshouses of the IVT phytotron at constant temperatures of 10, 14, 17, 20, 23 and 26°C. In general, in vivo pollen germination percentages were rather low after self pollination with an optimum for germination around 17–20°C. No seeds were formed at the lowest temperature (10°C) while seed production for SC clones was usually (rather) good at higher temperatures. At 26°C seed production in some clones decreased. Both pollen germination and seed production decreased at the end of the flowering period. There was a rather positive relationship at e.g. 17 and 20°C between pollen germination after selfing and seed production. When no pollen germination was observed, no seed formation occurred. When pollen grains did germinate, seed development would not necessarily occur in all cases. So this relationship only enables negative mass selection for SC. 相似文献

Summary Pollen grains from selected cutivars of almond [Prunus dulcis (Mill.) D. A. Webb] and peach (Prunus persica
Batsch L.) were exposed to a range of temperatures between 1°C and 34°C on a thermogradient plate. Pollen germination at temperatures below 9°C was conspicuously greater in almond than peach. Miximal germination percentages were attained at about 16°C (almond) and 23°C (peach). The two species did not differ in their capacity for pollen tube elongation over a broad range of temperatures. Maximal pollen tube elongation occurred at temperatures 5°C to 8°C higher than maximal pollen germination. Species affiliation appeared to be of much greater consequence than chilling requirement or bloom date of the sporophyte in predicting gametophytic response to temperature. 相似文献

Summary For haploid plant production in Idared apple, parthenogenesisin situ was induced by irradiated pollen. The most important restrictions were seed set, embryo germination and green plant recovery
from germinated embryos. The efficiency of green plant production was strongly influenced by irradiation dose, picking time
and quality of the irradiated pollen. 250 Gy pollen was more efficient for green plant production than 500 Gy pollen. Using
250 Gy pollen with reduced germination capacity resulted in a five-fold lower green plant yield. Delaying picking of the fruits
(140 instead of 70 days after pollination) had a significant positive effect. Up to 20 plants per 1000 pollinated flowers,
showing no expression of a marker gene present in the pollen parent, were obtained in some treatments.
Induction efficiency was high when seed weight was high. This offers the possibility of selecting seeds with the best chances
for haploid plant production. Heavy seeds generally contained visual normal developed embryos, which germinated better than
those from lighter seeds and gave normal plant development. Delayed picking increased the proportion of large seeds, suggesting
that pollination with irradiated pollen retards embryo development. From treatments with irradiated pollen of poor quality
more small seeds were harvested. 相似文献

Summary
Theobroma cacao pollen fertilization capability was studied after 0, 50, 100, 200, 500 and 1000 Gy gamma-irradiation. For all irradiation doses, no alteration of pollen grain viability and in vitro germination was observed. In situ, for all doses, pollen tubes penetrated into the styles and reached the ovules 20 hours after pollination. In vitro observations of the pollen grain nuclei after 20 hours incubation showed that pollen irradiation causes inhibition of the division of the generative nucleus. Fruit survival rate 30 days after pollination decreased as irradiation doses increased from 0 to 100 Gy, and over 100 Gy no fruit set was obtained. The possibility of using irradiated pollen as a method for obtaining haploid cacao plantlets is discussed. 相似文献

Summary Pollen of 4 Cucumis sativus genotypes and of the related species C. metuliferus and C. zeyheri 2x was irradiated with four doses of -rays: 1, 2, 4 and 5 kGy. Higher radiation doses were found to inhibit germination and pollen tube growth in vitro with C. sativus, the most sensitive species.Irradiated pollen of cucumber never performed normal fertilization. However, after radiation with 1 kGy, cucumber pollen was able to occupy all available ovules, of which about 50% developed into empty seeds without embryo. This makes 1 kGy-irradiated maternal pollen less suitable to serve as mentor pollen in interspecific hybridizations. Doses of 2 kGy and more appeared to eliminate the ability to compete for ovules, while fruit set after a 2 kGy radiation was still high. 相似文献

Summary It was attempted to overcome self-incompatibility in apple and pear and incongruity between these species with the aid of compatible mentor or pioneer pollen. The mentor pollen was applied in a mixture (1:1) with the incompatible/incongruous pollen and the pioneer pollen was applied one day in advance of the other pollination. Two trials in 1976 with dead methanol-treated mentor pollen on apple were moderately successful, probably because of the hot spring weather. In the apple and pear trials of 1979 neither the methanol-treated nor the viable irradiated (100 krad) mentor or pioneer pollen significantly improved the seed set by self pollen or that after intercrossing. Competition and early embryo abortion after selfing or intercrossing probably contributed to the lack of success of these methods. The viable irradiated pollen induced a rather high parthenocarpic fruit set, whether applied on its own or mixed with or in advance of the incompatible pollen; the inviable methanol-treated pollen had no such stimulating influence. 相似文献

Viability and storage of bromeliad pollen 总被引：7，自引：1，他引：6

Several bromeliad species from two different subfamilies, were used to develop a reliable method to evaluate pollen viability.
Pollen germination on a medium containing 20% sucrose, 0.001%H3BO3 and 0.5% agar was comparable to germination on a compatible stigma. Maximum germination was reached within 2 to 10 hours
depending on the species. Based on this test, six species were considered as being good pollen donors with germination percentages
between 49%and 83%. Furthermore, pollen from these species and cultivars could be stored in liquid nitrogen (–196 °C) without a considerable loss of viability. For all species, a dehydration period of 4 hours prior to cryopreservation and
a rehydration period of 1 hour after cryostorage were essential. Greenhouse humidity influenced anther moisture content and
cryostorability.

Summary Three staining methods (acetocarmine, fuchsin and oxidation of benzidine) and germination in vitro and in vivo were applied to estimate pollen fertility in Solanum species and dihaploids. Pollen was divided into six classes based on shape and contents of the grains. With acetocarmine, fuchsin, peroxidase and germination in vitro 4, 3, 2 and 1 classes, respectively, are supposed to be included in the percentage of good pollen as measured by these methods. This percentage therefore, in more than 96% of the cases studied, shows a decrease in the order indicated. Neither aging of pollen at room conditions nor collecting pollen from flowers on 1–9 days after anthesis does influence the percentage of good pollen with acetocarmine and fuchsin, whereas this percentage drops sharply to zero with peroxidase and germination in vitro. The latter two methods apparently measure as good pollen only the grains with living cytoplasm. When pollen is collected at three successive dates from the same flowers the percentage of good pollen drops sharply with all methods used. There is a relation between quantity of pollen per flower and pollen quality (% good), low-quantity pollen containing significantly lower percentages of good pollen than medium- and high-quantity pollen. The latter two are not significantly different in this respect.From calculations of correlation coefficients it is concluded that only germination of pollen in vitro is significantly correlated with berry and seed set and thus gives a reliable estimate of male fertility. This does not hold true for the two staining methods without due reserve. The peroxidase method is not useful for the Solanum material studied.After standardized pollination the average number of haploid pollen grains on diploid stigmata was found to be 1625±127, that of diploid pollen on tetraploid stigmata 2863±98.A.

Summary The merits of mentor pollen in certain interspecific hybridizations in the genus Cucumis L. were evaluated. African wild cucumber species Cucumis metuliferus
Naud. and C. africanus L. and Asian species C. sativus var. hardwickii
Alef and var. sikkimensis
Hook, were reciprocally crossed. Pollen tube growth was arrested halfway down the style in all combinations except in C. sativus × C. africanus. Mentor pollen irradiated with 100 and 200 krad grew through the style and into the ovules in all species. Fruitset was obtained in all cases when mentor pollen was used either alone or in mixtures. Fruits set after self pollination with mentor pollen yielded only seeds without embryos.In several crosses, aided by mentor pollen, a number of relatively large seeds (with enlarged embryosac) were obtained. A sample of these embryosacs contained a globular structure like an embryo. Embryosacs with embryo-like structures were explanted on several different media but no development was obtained. 相似文献

Summary Various aspects of pollen longevity, in vitro germination of pollen and controlled pollination in Coffea arabica were investigated. High pollen viability could be maintained for more than two years, much longer than previously reported, by storing it under vacuum at 18°C. The most satisfactory method of in vitro germination of pollen was the hanging drop in a Van Tieghem cell, with a 10°, sucrose solution. For artificial cross-pollination it is necessary to carry out emasculation and bagging at the latest one day before anthesis. The stigmas of unpollinated flowers remained receptive for at least nine days.This paper is published with permission of the Director, Coffee Research Station, Ruiru, Kenya 相似文献

Summary The self-incompatible pear cultivar Doyenne du Comice was selfed with the aid of the mentor pollen technique (self pollen mixed 1:1 with compatible pollen) and the pioneer pollen method (compatible pollen applied 14 h in advance of the self pollen). Observations on tube growth in the style showed that inviable methylated pollen was ineffective either as mentor or pioncer pollen, having no effect on the performance of the self pollen which stopped growing at about one quarter of the style from the stigma. Calculations made on the basis of the obtained data indicated that the viable untreated or irradiated pioneer and mentor pollen, the former somewhat better than the latter, aided the self pollen tubes to reach the base of the style. 相似文献

Summary Pollen germination and pollen tube growth after self- and intra- and interspecific pollinations of annual [M. scutellata (L.) Mill., M. disciformis DC., and M. rigidula (L.) All.] and perennial (M. sativa L.) Medicago species were studied using a Carl Zeiss microscope with a fluorescence filter attachment.Self-pollination of self-fertile annual and intraspecific pollination of cross-fertile perennials were characterized by high pollen germination and rapid normal pollen tube growth. In contrast pollen germination percentages were very low and many pollen tube growth abnormalities occurred following interspecific pollination and self-pollination of self-sterile plants. The time period from pollination to fertilization for interspecific crosses was about double that following self-pollination of the annual species. However, fertilization occurred frequently following interspecific pollinations. Much of the sterility was due to factor(s) operating after fertilization.Cooperative investigations of the Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, Dept. of Agronomy and the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Research Service.

Seed dormancy is one of the most important parameters affecting the malting process and pre-harvest sprouting in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.). Variation of seed dormancy in 4365 cultivated and 177 wild barley (ssp. spontaneum) accessions derived from different regions of the world was investigated in Okayama University, Kurashiki, Japan. Seed dormancy
of each accession was estimated from their germination percentages at 0, 5, 10 and 15 weeks post-harvest after-ripening periods.
All of the wild barley accessions showed less than 10% germination at 0 week after-ripening period. Level of seed dormancy
in 4365 cultivated barley accessions showed a clear geographical differentiation. Seventy seven percent of Ethiopian accessions
showed high germination percentages, while 86% of Japanese, Turkish and North African accessions showed low germination percentages
at 0 week after-ripening period. A half diallel cross using eleven barley accessions with different level of dormancy revealed
that seed dormancy was predominately controlled by additive gene effects. These results suggest that large genetic diversity
for seed dormancy in barley is explained as different levels of additive accumulation of genetic factors. Barley varieties
showing appropriate dormancy could be developed by crossing among barley germplasm accessions used in the present study. 相似文献

Summary In vitro pollen germination at 10°C, 14°C and 22°C of four groups of two pure line tomato varieties was compared with their plant growth at 19°C D/10°C N under controlled environmental conditions. Generally, pollen germination was slow at 10°C but after 6 h the percentage of germination was similar to that at 22°C. Maximum germination was obtained at 14°C already after 4 h. The longest pollen tubes occurred at 22°C. The two varieties within each group differed significantly from each other for percentage of pollen germination. For one group, this difference was greater at 10°C than at 22°C. The varieties in two groups also differed significantly for pollen tube growth. These differences in pollen tube growth rate were greater at 22°C than at 10°C. There was no clear relationship between pollen germination, pollen tube growth and plant growth in any of the four pairs of varieties. The results are discussed with regard to the possibility of pollen selection at low temperature in order to improve the efficiency of breeding for growth at low temperature. 相似文献

Low temperature storage of pistachio pollen 总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3
Summary Pollen from four male pistachio (Pistacia vera L.) clones was stored at –196°C and –20°C for up to 12 months and tested for ability to germinate in vitro following a period of hydration at high humidity. Germination of fresh pollen was high (>80%) for each clone. At –196°C, pollen of cv. Peters survived freezing, storage and thawing with no loss of germinability; pollen of the other three clones had sharp declines in germination possibly attributable to cellular lesions incurred during freezing or thawing. When the relative humidity of the –20°C storage environment was maintained at or near 33%, Peters pollen had high rate of germination through 12 months storage. Without control of relative humidity, Peters pollen germination was high at 4 months, but declined at 12 months. Germination requirements became more exacting for pollen stored at –20°C for 12 months at suboptimal humidity conditions. Pollen of the other three clones did not tolerate storage at –20°C as well as Peters pollen regardless of the storage humidity environment. 相似文献

Pollination with gamma-irradiated pollen and development of fruits,seeds and parthenogenetic plants in apple 总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3
Summary Four apple (Malus X domestica) genotypes, Erovan, Golden Delicious, R1-49 and X6677, were pollinated with a marked pollen irradiated by -rays at doses ranging from 125 to 1000 Gy. Pollination with such irradiated pollen affected fruit set, seed number and seed contents, and induced the formation of parthenocarpic fruits and the development of parthenogenetic embryos. The immature embryos extracted from seeds. 2 and 3 months after pollination, were cultured in vitro and germinated after 2 months of cold treatment (3°C). Haploid plants were obtained in all 4 genotypes, after pollination with pollen irradiated at doses from 200 to 500 Gy. The optimum conditions for induction of apple haploids, by irradiated pollen approach, have been established. 相似文献

Storage of avocado pollen 总被引：4，自引：0，他引：4
Margaret Sedgley 《Euphytica》1981,30(3):595-599
Summary Avocado pollen was stored at a range of temperatures and relative humidities (RH) for up to one year and the pollen was tested for viability in vivo.Pollen stored for one month was capable of germination on the stigma and penetrating the ovule when stored at 4°C with <1,23,55 and 75% r.h. and at -196°C with 0% r.h. Most pollen samples stored at 25 and -15°C at a range of r.h. would germinate on the stigma but none would penetrate the ovule.After one year of storage, pollen at 4°C and <1 and 23% r.h. would germinate on the stigma but would not penetrate the ovule. There was no germination of pollen stored at 4°C and 55 and 75% r.h. Only pollen stored at -196°C and 0% r.h. would penetrate the ovule, but thawing and refreezing once during the year destroyed the viability. 相似文献

An assessment of thein vitro germination capacity of pollen grains of five tea hybrid rose cultivars
Chrysothemis I. Voyiatzi 《Euphytica》1995,83(3):199-204
Summary Germination trials of pollen grains of the tea hybrid rose cultivars: Ferry Porche, Bronze Masterpiece, Queen Elizabeth, John F. Kennedy and Lady X, were carried outin vitro, to determine whether these cultivars are suitable as pollen donors in a breeding programme.Pollen grains of all five cultivars germinated poorly in a medium containing sucrose only. Addition of boric acid in the medium improved the germination percentages. The highest germinability was observed in Ferry Porche and Lady X on 15% sucrose+50 ppm boric acid, and 20% sucrose+100 ppm boric acid, respectively. Addition of calcium nitrate in the medium reduced germination percentages in all cultivars.The effect of pH of the medium on pollen grain germinability depended on the cultivar and the composition of the medium. On a medium free of boric acid, the pH values between 5.5 and 7.0 caused a significant increase in the germination percentages of pollen grains of Lady X and Queen Elizabeth. The addition of boric acid decreased the responsiveness of the pollen of all cultivars to the pH changes of the medium.The germination capacity of pollen grains of Lady X and Ferry Porche was not affected by incubation temperatures ranging between 20°C and 30°C.On the basis of the above results Lady X and Ferry Porche are considered the most suitable for pollen donors. 相似文献
