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
Germination of pollen grains and growth of pollen tubes were studied to determine the cause of barreness in crosses among annual Cicer species. In vivo and in vitro time-course studies and fluorescent microscopy revealed no pollination incompatibility among the selfs, crosses and reciprocals of C. a
Immature tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) pollen has been isolated from anthers in three distinct stages of development, including the microspore stage. In in-vitro cultures, fully functional, mature pollen was obtained. In a germination medium, this pollen produced pollen tubes. After application to
Intact maize (Zea mays L.) ovaries were excised from unpollinated ears (pistillate inflorescences) of field-grown plants and placed on defined, agar-based media in Petri dishes. Application of pollen to the end of silks (styles) positioned outside the Petri dish resulted in fertilization of 46% of t
