Reproductive Biology Of Vicial. I. Pollen Morphology, Pollengermination ( In Situ) And Pollen Tube Growth., Feruzan Dane, Çiler Meri̇ç

Turkish Journal of Biology

This paper is a study of the pollen germination of V. hirsuta (L.) S.F. Gray, V. pannonica Crantz., V. hybrida L., V, grandiflora Scop., V. sativa L, V. nrbonnensis L. in the anther loculi ( in situ). The morphological properties and fertilities of the pollen were had been investigated. In addition, cytological and cytochemical properties and fertilities of the pollen were had been investigated. In addition, cytological and cytochemical properites of the pollen tubes during in situ pollen germination were examined. The pollen grains of the species examined were prolata, tricolporatae and exine reticulatae, which were shed during the two-cell …


A Study Of Pollen Mitosis And Pollen Morphology Inhexaploid (2n=24) Bellevalia Edirnensisözhatay & Mathew, Feruzan Dane Jan 1999

A Study Of Pollen Mitosis And Pollen Morphology Inhexaploid (2n=24) Bellevalia Edirnensisözhatay & Mathew, Feruzan Dane

Turkish Journal of Biology

: The pollen mitosis and pollen morphology of hexaploid (2n=24) Bellevalia edirnensis Özhatay & Mathew were examined. Microspores exhibited variation in size, and the exine and aperture developed before pollen mitosis began. During pollen mitosis, polarization, asymmetric styles and normal divisions were observed together with some abnormalities. During polarization of the microspore both nucleus migration and vacuole formation were common. The generative nucleus was in the proximal pole and the vegetative nucleus was in the distal pole. It was also determined that the mature pollens were 2-celled, the shape of the pollens was sphaeroidea, the type of the pollens was …
