In this study, it was aimed to determine the effect of
different boron doses on pollen germination rates in in vitro conditions of
Hicaz Nar  pomegranate cultivar at full
yield.The A and B type of pollens collected separately from the pomegranate
trees, were germinated by the 'agar petri' method. Four different boron doses
containing 1% agar, 15% sucrose and 0, 10, 20 and 30 mg/l⁻¹ boric acid were used as a germination medium. It was
determined that the pollen of both types of flower had the highest germination
rate at 10 mg/l⁻¹ boron application, and these rates were
62.17% in A type flowers and 41.87% in B type flowers. It has been observed
that germination rates of flower pollen of both types of flower increased
significantly in comparison with control with boron applications.
