There is no robust and quick technique available for testing germination of wheat pollen. In this study, Brewbaker and Kwack (BK) pollen germination medium (PGM) was adjusted with α α α α α-amino caproic acid (EACA), peptone water and maltose to develop an improved medium for wheat. Germination of pollen in this PGM ranged from 92% to 98.2% depending upon genotype pollen germination media (PGM). This is the first report of PGM which has >95% wheat pollen germination in vitro.
