Abstract
A baixa produção de sementes híbridas de abóbora obtida em nossas condições deve-se provavelmente aos métodos de produção pouco eficientes. A quantidade de pólen transferido naturalmente ou artificialmente entre os parentais pode afetar não só a produção como também a qualidade das sementes híbridas. Neste estudo, utilizou-se a polinização manual, a qual constou de cinco tratamentos relacionados com a quantidade de pólen do progenitor masculino para polinizar uma única flor feminina: um quarto da quantidade de pólen de uma flor; metade da quantidade de pólen de uma flor; a quantidade de pólen de uma flor; a quantidade de pólen de duas flores, e a quantidade de pólen de quatro flores masculinas. O delineamento experimental adotado foi em blocos ao acaso, com três repetições e dezoito plantas por parcela. O aumento da quantidade de pólen aplicada aumentou a produção de sementes por fruto e consequentemente a produção de sementes por área. A qualidade fisiológica das sementes praticamente não foi afetada entre os tratamentos, embora foi observada uma menor germinação das sementes obtidas em frutos provenientes de flores polinizadas com 1/4 de pólen.
The low production of squash hybrid seeds obtained in our conditions is probably due to the inefficient production methods. The amount of pollen transferred naturally or artificially between the two parents may affect not only the hybrid seed production but also the seed quality of squash. In this study, flowers were manually pollinated using five amounts of pollen to pollinate one female flower: 1/4 of pollen from one flower; half of the amount of pollen from one flower; pollen of one flower; pollen of two flowers and pollen of four flowers. The randomized complete block design was adopted, with three replications and eighteen plants per plot. The increasing pollen amount affected significantly seed yield per fruit and seed yield per area, but did not influence significantly seed quality. A lower germination was observed in fruits originated from flowers pollinated with 1/4 of pollen of one flower.
