Theobroma cacao pollen fertilization capability was studied after 0, 50, 100,200, 500 and 1000 Gy gammairradiation. 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 th

The e β ect of nib roasting time and temperature on volatile component proΓles was studied using response surface methodology (RSM) which consisted two independent variables : time (5Γ65 min) and temperature (110Γ170Β‘C). A steam distillation extraction (SDE) method was used to extract and gas chromat
To improve fruit-and seed set in roses, the Hybrid Tea-cultivar Sonia was pollinated with the cv. Ilona 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 times at 24 h intervals. Unpollinated flowers did not yield fruits. The number of achenes per fruit increased up to 3, fruit weight and weight of achenes increased up to
We conducted a controlled crossing experiment to examine the effects of maternal and paternal parentage, the size of the pollen load, and prior fruit production on the proportion of flowers that set fruit, seed number per fruit and seed weight in a natural population of Campanula americana. Effects
