Investigations of suitable pollinator for 0900 Ziraat sweet cherry cv.: pollen performance tests, germination tests, germination procedures, in vitro and in vivo pollinations

Sweet cherry cultivars Bigarreu Gaucher, Bing, Noble, Starks Gold, Stella, Van, and Vista were tested in a series of in vitro and in vivo experiments in order to determine suitable cultivars to be used as pollinators for the female cultivar 0900 Ziraat. Starks Gold had the highest values in terms of...

Description
Summary:Sweet cherry cultivars Bigarreu Gaucher, Bing, Noble, Starks Gold, Stella, Van, and Vista were tested in a series of in vitro and in vivo experiments in order to determine suitable cultivars to be used as pollinators for the female cultivar 0900 Ziraat. Starks Gold had the highest values in terms of anther number, average number of pollens per anther, number of pollen per flower and the morphological homogeneity. The pollen viability rates showed significant differences according to stain tests. In vitro pollen germination in 0.5% agar + 15% sucrose + 5 ppm boric acid medium increased with increasing incubation period, and the highest germination was obtained after 48 hours for all cultivars. In orchard trials parallel to pollen tube growth experiments in the laboratory, 0900 Ziraat x Starks Gold combination gave the best fruit set results.
