Untersuchungen zur Pollenkeimung und zum Pollenschlauchwachstum

Stimulatory effect of aluminum on the growth of tea pollen tubes

“…Fahnrich and Ultlich (1964) reported that the germination and growth of the pollen tube of Petunia hybrida and Antirrhinum majus were not stimulated by 0.1 mM Al with 1.0 mM B at pH 5.2. However, such a pollen tube growth may be stimulated by Al under the conditions of our experiments with low Al concentrations, low medium pH, coexistence of cations, and absence of B.…”
