Abstract

Abstract In vitro germination of pollen from almond ( Prunus amygdalus Batsch), peach [ P. persica (L.) Batsch], apricot ( P. armeniaca L.), plum ( P. salicina Lindl.), and sweet cherry ( P. avium L.) after freezing in liquid nitrogen was similar to unfrozen pollen. In vivo germination of frozen pollen was confirmed with apricot and cherry.

8 of 10 groups shown: named compounds and organisms first, then groups whose results differ (checked claim by claim), then those with positive and negative results, then the smaller groups.

Claims are grouped by organism, treatment and what was measured or targeted. A paper counts as positive when any of its claims in the group is positive.
