Figure 1From: Evaluation of reproductive barriers contributes to the development of novel interspecific hybrids in the Kalanchoë genus Characterization of Kalanchoë genotypes. (A) Flower and leaf morphologies of different Kalanchoë species and cultivars. Scale bars: 1.0 cm. (B) Pistil and style length. Values present means (±S.E.), n = 20. Values followed by different letters (small letters for pistils and capital letters for style) are significantly different (P ≤0.05) according to Tukey’s honestly significant difference test. (C) The viability and germinability of pollen samples. Pollen viability was determined by staining with 1% acetocarmine, pollen germinability was determined by incubation in liquid germination medium. Values presented are means (±S.E.), n = 3. Values followed by different letters (small letters for viability and capital letters for germinability) are significantly different (P ≤0.05) according to Tukey’s honestly significant difference test, genotype name followed by asterisks indicates values significantly different (P ≤0.05) between two performed pollen analyses according to t-test.Back to article page
