Title:
Feasibility of Wet Pollination in Loblolly Pine, 1983 (Forest Science Laboratory - Genetics Group Research Report No. 13)
Description:
The feasibility of using a liquid pollen suspension for pollination of loblolly pine was tested. Results indicate wet pollination to be effective at delivering pollen to the ovule. Mean number of pollen grains per ovule for dissected ovules within each treatment was: wet pollination, 1.6; dry pollination, 2.4; open pollination, 2.8. The utility of supplemental mass pollination for improving the quality of seed orchard seed is discussed.
