Abstract: (303 Views) |
Pollination is very important to achieve an economic date product. This study has been conducted in the form of randomized complete block design (RCBD) on 15 trees of 12-year-old Medjool cultivar in three replications at the research garden of Jahrom Agricultural Research Station for two years. In this study, the effect of pollen grains 7001 as a control, 7004, 7013, 7030 and Boyer 11 tissue culture has been examined on the fruit quality traits. Based on the results of this experiment, the highest fruit pH (6.81), titrable acidity (TA) (0.19%), dry matter (80.73%) and fruit ash (2.61%) were observed using pollen grains7013. Pollinator genotypes had no significant effect on total soluble solids content. After pollen grain 7013, pollinator genotype 7030 showed the most positive effect on fruit quality traits, such as titrable acidity (0.18%), dry matter (80.60%) and fruit ash (2.58%). Among pollinator genotypes, 7013 and 7030 showed the most overlap with female flowers of Medjool cultivar.
