Low temperature storage and in vitro germination of cherimoya (Annona cherimola Mill.) pollen

Due to the protogynous dichogamy of cherimoya and to the absence of proper pollinating vectors, hand-pollination with fresh pollen is a common practice for cherimoya commercial production. In order to optimize the process of hand-pollination, in this work we have studied the conservation of cherimoy...

In vitro pollen germination of fresh pollen was 57.1% and it was progressively reduced with conservation time at the three temperatures studied reaching a minimum after three months of storage of 10.4 %, 14.2% and 13.6% at –20, -80 and –196ºC, respectively.
