Determination of Pollen Quality Levels in Some Hazelnut Cultivars
Abstract
In this study
the germination and viability of pollen of Tombul, Palaz, Çakıldak, Foşa,
Allahverdi, Sivri, Kalınkara and Yassı Badem hazelnut cultivars are
investigated. TTC test was applied to determine the pollen viability of the
cultivars. The germination of pollens were determined according to ‘agar in
petri method’. The highest rate of the viability of pollen has been determined
on the Allahverdi cultivar as 71.03%, while it was the lowest in Yassı Badem
cultivar as 1.61%. The highest germination of the pollen has been determined on
the Tombul hazelnut in both years. The highest pollen germination rate in 2015
determined at a concentration of 15% sucrose (64.07%). In 2016, the rate of
germination was the highest in 20% sucrose (53.12%). Pollen viability varied
depending on the cultivars and years and pollen germination rates have changed
according to the cultivars, years and sucrose concentrations.
