Development and Optimization of a Germination Assay and Long-Term Storage for Cannabis sativa Pollen
Plants, 2020 Pollen viability and storage is of great interest to cannabis breeders and researchers to maintain desirable germplasm for future use in breeding or for biotechnological and gene editing applications.

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Abstract Premise Changing climates are leading to more frequent and severe heat waves, potentially threatening plant populations. Both acclimation to stress and selection for heat‐escape or heat‐resistance phenotypes occur during heat waves. However, plastic responses and selection do not necessarily interact cohesively—even producing trait responses ...

Determination of Pollen Fertility of Some Cut Rose Varieties in Different Periods
Düzce University Faculty of Forestry Journal of ForestryIn rose breeding by hybridization, the viable pollen and germination rate of the male parent increases the rate of successful pollination. Therefore, a good variety of pollinators is always needed in hybridization studies.

Optimizing pollencounter for high throughput phenotyping of pollen quality in tomatoes
MethodsX, 2020 The macro “PollenCounter” in ImageJ was initially developed to assess pollen viability in grapevine. We set out to see if PollenCounter could be used to assess pollen number and viability in tomatoes.

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Abstract Premise Climate change is altering the timing of many plant phenological events, yet most studies focus on flowering, with less attention given to later reproductive stages such as fruit development and ripening. Vaccinium angustifolium (lowbush blueberry) is an important perennial berry species that may be sensitive to these changes.

Morphology and viability of pollen grains from passion fruit species (Passiflora spp.)
Acta Botânica Brasílica, 2013 The characterization and viability of pollen grains are useful tools to guide crosses in breeding programs. The objective of this study was to describe the morphological patterns and viability of pollen grains from five accessions of Passiflora edulis f.

Screening and optimisation of in vitro pollen germination medium for sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas)
Plant Methods, 2023 Background Sweetpotato is an important vegetable and food crop that is bred through sexual crosses and systematic selection. The use of in vitro germination of sweetpotato pollen to test its viability has important theoretical and practical implications ...

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Abstract Premise The optimal timing of reproduction depends on the relative risk and benefit of continued growth. These risks and benefits depend on the local environment, which varies seasonally. While temperature and water availability are well‐studied selective agents on reproductive timing, less is known about other seasonally variable factors ...
