Pollen grains of diploid and tetraploid Italian, perennial and hybrid ryegrass (Lolium spp.) germinated on 20 % sucrose solution with 10 ppm each of CaCI 2 , 1131303 and EDTA . Pollen tubes emerged within 2-3 minutes after sowing and completed full growth within 1 2' hours. The tube elongation showe

Pollen sterility, sex balance, and floral induction of the pollen donor plants were tested for a possible relation to embryogenesis from in vitro cultured tobacco pollen (Nicotiana tabacum L. var. Badischer Burley). The pollen grains destined to become embryos in culture (P-grains) were sterile for
Immature tassel meristems (1.0-1.5 cm long) of Zea mays L. inbred, Oh43, and single cross hybrid, Se60, cultured on a nutrient liquid medium underwent extensive development through to maturity and produced normal, mature, trinucleate pollen grains. The grains germinated on nutrient agar and on recep
