short note on pollen storage
Answers
Answer:
pollen storage started at the end of the 19th century. There is large number of crop species, including vegetables, fibre and fruit crops, forage and cereals, for which pollen storage strategies are desirable. Genetic conservation through pollen storage is desirable for a variety of horticultural plant species, since pollen is known to transmit important genetically heritable characters.
Pollen is a product of genetic recombination and can provide a reliable source of nuclear genetic diversity at the haploid stage. Although genetic conservation through pollen storage does not accomplish the whole genome conservation, a plant breeder involved in genetic enhancement of a given horticultural crop could have access to a facility called ‘Pollen Cryobank’, from where he can draw pollen parents of his choice in the process of breeding a new cultivar.
