Abstract

The effects of Ca2+ on pollen germination and tube growth of Zephyranthes grandiflora were studied with different concentrations of Ca2+ by in vitro culture.The results showed that lower concentration of Ca2+ (10-3 mol/L) could promote the pollen germination obviously and tube growth quickly,but too high or too low concentrations of Ca2+ could not achieve the appropriate action to the pollen germination and tube growth.
