Bromeliaceae is a large family, and many species are valued ornamentally for their bright colorful flowers. Pollen grain conservation is important for plant breeding and genetic resource conservation increasing the possibilities of crosses between allogamous species, and further hybrid production. The present study aimed to evaluate pollen conservation methodologies for Aechmea bicolor L.B.Sm. using...
The objective of this study was to agronomically characterize plants from induced chromosome doubling experiments in the Pisang Lilin parthenocarpic banana accession to select genotypes that will be used as 2n gamete donors in crosses with improved diploids to generate secondary triploids. Twenty-two plants were evaluated, of which 17 were autotetraploids. Compared with the original diploids, the...
Bananas are tropical fruits grown worldwide playing a key role in market trade and especially used as main food source for low income populations. In Brazil, bananas are mainly consumed in natura, occupying the second largest internal market. Nevertheless, this crop presents low availability of productive commercial varieties with good agronomic characteristics. A strategy undertaken to solve this...
