Study on the pollination characteristic of Cistanche deserticola / 中国中药杂志

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the Pollination Characteristic of C. deserticola.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>Four pollination methods were used, cross pollination coming different plant, cross pollination in one plant, wind pollination and no-pollination.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>Cross pollinations coming different plant are fructiferous. The average fructication rate of cross pollination coming different plant is 94.1%; the average fructication rate of cross pollination in one plant is 52.2%; The seed qulitity of cross pollination coming different plant is better than the cross pollination in one plant.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Cross pollinations coming different plant have a high quantity and quality of seeds of C. deserticola.</p>
