Abstract
Uma vez que a polinização é um dos pontos decisivos para o crescimento e desenvolvimento do fruto, contribuindo com os gametas masculinos para a fecundação e determinando, na maioria das vezes, a fixação dos frutos em citros, torna-se necessário conhecer o grau de esterilidade masculina nas diferentes variedades de laranja doce para sua possível utilização em programas de melhoramento. A esterilidade é limitante para programas que envolvam a hibridação sexual, por outro lado possui sua importância econômica em citros induzindo menor número de sementes por fruto em certas variedades. Com a finalidade de caracterizar 44 variedades de laranja doce (Citrus sinensis [L.] osbeck) quanto à viabilidade do pólen, foram coletadas anteras das variedades enxertadas sobre tangerineira Cleópatra. As variedades estudadas pertencem aos principais grupos de laranja doce: com acidez (como a laranja 'Pêra'), de baixa acidez (como a laranja 'Lima'), com umbigo (como a laranja 'Bahia') e sangüíneas (como a laranja 'Rubi Blood'). O percentual de pólen viável foi avaliado por meio da coloração com carmim acético a 25% e contagem sob microscópio ótico. Foram observados valores que variaram desde 12,0% para a 'Pêra Sem Sementes' até 88,8% para a variedade 'Hamlin Reserva'. Os clones de laranja 'Hamlin' mostraram maior percentual de pólen viável. Não foi observada presença de pólen para as variedades produtoras de laranjas de umbigo, originadas da variedade Bahia. As variedades 'Pêra', 'Valência' e 'Natal', as quais são as principais cultivares da citricultura paulista e nacional, apresentaram baixos percentuais de pólen viável.
Pollination is one of the most critical points in fruit growth and development, contributing with male gametes for fertilization and determine, greatly, fruit setting in citrus. It is necessary to evaluate male sterility in sweet orange varieties for their possible use in breeding programs. The sterility limits sexual hybridization, but on the other hand, it has economic importance in leading to fewer seeds per fruit in some citrus varieties. In order to characterize 44 sweet orange varieties (Citrus sinensis [L.] osbeck) for pollen viability, anthers were collected from the varieties grafted on Cleopatra mandarin. The varieties investigated represented the major sweet orange groups: acidic oranges (as 'Pera' orange), low acidic oranges (as 'Lima' orange), navel oranges (as 'Bahia' orange) and bloody oranges (as 'Rubi Blood' orange). The percent of viable pollen was evaluated using acetic carmine stain under optic microscopy. The values ranged from 12.0% for 'Pera Sem Sementes' orange to 88.8% for 'Hamlin Reserva' orange. The 'Hamlin' clones showed the largest percent of viable pollen. Absence of pollen in navel oranges, originated from 'Bahia' variety was observed. The varieties 'Pera', 'Valência' and 'Natal', which are the main sweet orange cultivars in São Paulo State and Brazil, presented low percent of viable pollen.
