Abstract: | The role of ethylene during in vitro maturation of Nicotianatabacum pollen from the mld-binucleate (MB) stage was analysedby the addition of aminooxyacetic acid (AOA), aminoethoxyvinylglycine(AVG), CoCl2 and AgNO3 to the maturation medium (AMGLu). Anincrease in ethylene production was obtained in both isolatedpollen and pollen surrounded by sporophytic tissue during insitu maturation. in vitro maturation of pollen was inhibitedby AOA and AVG; ACC and ethrel were able to overcome this inhibitoryeffect. Cyclohexylamine (CHA) reverted the inhibition provokedby both Ag+ and Co2+ The results reported in this paper indicatethat ethylene is one of the factors implicated in in vitro maturationof MB pollen of Nicotiana tabacum.
