F. aPollen handling protocol and hydration/dehydration characteristics of pollen for application to long-term storage.h[electronic resource] c1993 aThe National Seed Storage Laboratory in Fort Collins, Colorado, is investigating pollen storage as a practical ccurate in vitro germination tests. A series of dehydration and hydration curves were generated for Pinusponderosa Dough. ex P. Laws., Piceapungens Engelm., and Carya illinoensis (Wangenh.) K. Koch pollens using five saturated salt solutions and water. Equilibrium moisture contents (EMCs) were also determined for Typha latifolia L., Phoenix dactylifera L., Corylus avellana L., and Zea mays L. Although rates of dehydration and hydration, and EMC varied with salt, pollen, and temperature, the pollens tested did survive the drying procedures and could successfully be stored in liquid nitrogen. aDesidratação aEstocagem aGermoplasma aHidratação aPólen1 aTOWILL, L.
