ABSTRACT:
The present method is directed to a method for the in vitro stabilization and manipulation of pollen from flowering plants. Specifically, the in vitro stabilization method comprises stabilizing germinating pollen in an aqueous stabilizing solution. The growth of the pollen tube may be resumed by suspending the stabilized pollen in germination medium. Stabilized pollens may be used as vectors for the transfer of exogenous DNA into plants or in gametophyte selection.
