Effect on in vivo pollen tube growth " DOI: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scienta.2021.110760. This study evaluated the inhibition effect of seven products on the in vivo pollen tube growth in Nadorcott mandarin, which is a high-value seedy variety. To achieve this main objective, three inorganic fertilizers (ammonium nitrate, potassium nitrate, sulfur), and four saccharides (saccharose, methyl cellulose, callose, chitosan) were applied to Nadorcott stigmas 24 h before and after hand pollination. Pollen tubes were counted 1, 3, and 5 days after treatment in longitudinal blue violet autofluorescence-stained sections. Of the seven evaluated products, only sulfur had a strong inhibitory effect. Elemental sulfur (S8) inhibited pollen tube growth by 94-100%. This strong effect was observed regardless of sulfur being applied 24 h before or after pollination, and on fixed flowers 1, 3 or 5 days after applications. Saccharose treatment seemed to have the opposite effect: stimulated pollen tube growth, but the difference with the positive control was small and non-significant. The sulfur effect could be useful for designing agronomic applications capable of preventing seed presence in Nadorcott mandarin.
