Study Notes

Artificial Hybridization

  • In artificial hybridization, pollination is facilitated by dusting mature pollen grains collected from anthers of the male parent onto the stigma of the female parent.
  • This process is followed by rebagging the flowers to allow fruitful development.
  • Emasculation is not required if the female parent produces unisexual flowers.

Pollination Process

  • Female flower buds are bagged before they open to prevent unwanted pollination.
  • When the stigma becomes receptive, pollination is carried out using the desired pollen.
  • The flower is rebagged after pollination to ensure successful fertilization.
