Effective pollination period estimation in olive (Olea europaea L.): a pollen monitoring application

摘要: This investigation was carried out to consider the role of effective pollination period (EPP) in reproductive process a typical perennial plant species Mediterranean area, olive (Olea europaea L.). The analyses utilized relationships between yearly fruit production and daily pollen emissions recorded through aerobiological methods grouped specific clusters flowering days. results identified, for cultivars studied 4-day as being important pollination. day cluster considered more useful EPP estimator. Moreover, it evaluated possible climate change indicator comparison other indices but showed not this purpose.
