Pollen Dispersion, Pollen Viability and Pistil Receptivity in Leymus chinensis [PDF]
Annals of Botany, 2004 Leymus chinensis is an economically and ecologically important grass that is widely distributed across eastern areas of the Eurasian steppe. A major problem facing its propagation by man is its low sexual reproductivity. The causes of low fecundity are uncertain, largely because many aspects of the reproductive biology of this species remained unknown ...

Intra-inflorescence pollen viability in accessions of Brachiaria ruziziensis
Acta Scientiarum: Biological Sciences, 2014 Knowledge about the pollen viability is important to ensure success in controlled hybridizations and, consequently, support breeding programs. The aims of this study were to evaluate the pollen viability in progenies of artificially induced tetraploid ...

POLLEN VIABILITY IN QUINCE CULTIVARS
Journal of Agricultural, Food and Environmental Sciences, 2018 Pollen viability of eight quince cultivars (ʻLeskovackaʼ, ʻVranjskaʼ, ʻMoravaʼ, ʻPazardzijskaʼ, ʻHemusʼ, ʻAsenicaʼ, ʻPortugalʼ and ʻTriumphʼ), was studied in the two-year period (2011-2012). Testing of pollen viability was performed using two methods: the staining of pollen with acetocarmine (indirect method) and pollen germination in vitro with ...

Different storage temperatures and times on pollen quality in cut rose varieties
Ornamental Horticulture, 2022 Pollen parent is one of the most important factors affecting the seed set in conventional breeding. Pollen quality of pollen parents must be known for success in breeding programs.

HortScience, 1984 Abstract The viability of fresh pollen from 6 Rosa species (Rosa spinosissima L., R. fedtschenkoana Regel, R. pendulina L., R. arkansana Porter, R. Carolina L., R. virginiana Miller), one botanical variety (R. spinosissima altaica Rehd.) and 3 cultivars (‘Betty Bland’, ‘George Will’, ‘Prairie Princess’) were evaluated.

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018 High temperatures associated with climate change are expected to be detrimental for aspects of plant reproduction, such as pollen viability. We hypothesized that (1) higher peak temperatures predicted with climate change would have a minimal effect on ...

090 Pollen Viability in Inland Saltgrass [PDF]
HortScience, 1999 Distichlis spicata var. stricta (Torrey) Beetle is a native grass that tolerates salt, high pH, and some heavy metals. It has been proposed for use in several challenging environments, including mine spoils and salt-impacted areas of golf courses. But, its widespread use has been hindered by several factors, one of which is poor seed set.

In vitro pollen germination and pollen viability study in brinjal [PDF]
, 2022 Abstract For hybrid seed production, it is prerequisite to know the floral biology of the crop and pollen biology is an integral part of flower biology of any crop to understand artificial hybridization more efficiently. After pollination, germination of the viable pollen is important for proper fertilization of ovary and to develop optimum ...

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2022 Maize pollen is highly sensitive to heat and drought, but few studies have investigated the combined effects of heat and drought on pollen viability. In this study, pollen's structural and physiological characteristics were determined after heat, drought,

Pollen Viability of Aeschynanthus tricolor Hook. [PDF]
Journal of Tropical Life Science, 2017 Aeschynanthus (Gesneriaceae) is climbing or trailing epiphytes from the tropical forests of South-East Asia. Several species are widely cultivated for their attractive flowers, which usually scarlet with long corolla tubes and probably bird pollinated.This study was carried out on Aeschynanthus tricolor Hook.
