CHARACTERIZATION OF MORPHOLOGY AND GERMINATION CAPACITY IN VIOLA ODORATA L. POLLEN
Journal Title: Analele Stiintifice ale Universitatii Alexandru Ioan Cuza din Iasi, Serie noua, Sectiunea II a. Biologie vegetala - Year 2007, Vol 53, Issue 0
Abstract
The paper presents some general morphological aspects of Viola odorata L. pollen, with diagnosis value for this taxon. We have also shown the germination ability of sweet violet pollen, according to glucide concentration factor in germination artificial environment. Estimates were done on the concentration in glucide elements, which allowed pollen germination, and on optimal concentrations for the development of germinating process. We have also studied the germination process in dynamics. The obtained results reflected an extraordinary rusticity and ecological plasticity of sweet violet. Therefore, the studies concerning pollen-germinating capacity could represent a genetic and eco-physiological indicator for the studied taxon.
