Effect verification
To further illustrate the utility value of the present application, applicants conducted the following tests:
test one: comparing pollination success rates before and after preservation of pollen in each group
A first group: pollen according to example 2 of the present application;
second group: collecting male flower pollen at 10:30 of the day of male flower blooming, directly collecting male flower pollen in a test field, and carrying out other modes strictly according to the example 2;
third group: the sterilization step was eliminated and the other procedure was carried out exactly as in example 2;
and a fourth group: the steps of pollen preservation are modified as follows: subpackaging cassava pollen into a freezing storage tube, and storing the freezing storage tube filled with the cassava pollen in an environment with the temperature lower than 10 ℃; otherwise exactly as in example 2;
and a fifth group: the steps of pollen preservation are modified as follows: subpackaging sterilized cassava pollen into a freezing tube, placing the freezing tube filled with the pollen in liquid nitrogen for 8s, and then transferring the freezing tube into a freezing chamber below-20 ℃ for storage; otherwise exactly as in example 2;
a sixth group: the collecting bottle is changed into a common collecting bag or a common collecting bottle, and the drying chamber is not arranged, and only the collecting chamber is arranged; otherwise exactly as in example 2;
the above groups were stored as follows: after the pollen in the step (2) is dried, the pollination operation is carried out according to the steps (5) to (7) in the embodiment 4, and after the pollen is stored, the pollination operation is carried out according to the steps (5) to (7) in the embodiment 4; each group of test fields is one mu of land, and the average pollination success rate of each group is calculated; the recorded data are shown in table 1:
and (3) successful pollination:
TABLE 1 pollination success Rate before and after pollen preservation
According to the results in table 1, the success rate of pollination of cassava pollen stored by the method is not reduced, but slightly improved, because the pollen passes through a dormancy stage after being subjected to cryopreservation and activity recovery after returning to the temperature by a scientific and reasonable storage method, the success rate of actual pollination is improved, and because the cassava flower is sterilized, microorganisms carried by the cassava flower are killed, so that the success rate of pollination of the pollen is higher. The third group of microorganisms affects the activity of pollen during pollen preservation, so the pollination success rate after preservation is not much different and is lower than that before preservation. The fourth group can be stored only for 3-4 months as it is stored at 10 deg.C, and thus the activity is reduced after 8 months of storage, resulting in a low success rate of authorization at this time. The pollination survival rate was also high in the fifth group, but the preservation cost was much higher than that described in example 2 of the present application.
And (2) test II: comparing pollen Activity of groups
The method comprises the following steps of (1) dividing the pollen into the following groups, and respectively measuring the vitality of the pollen;
the following is the same way except for the different steps or parameters highlighted, i.e. the collection and preservation method described in example 2.
1. The effect of different collection times on pollen activity was compared as shown in table 2:
TABLE 2 Effect of different collection times on pollen Activity
As can be seen from Table 2, the pollen vitality of the cassava pollen collected at different times in one day is different, and the vitality value of the cassava pollen at the ratio of 11:30 is the highest value, which is the best collection time.
2. Comparing the effect of different treatment modes on the activity of the pollen preserved at ultralow temperature for more than 3 months, the data are recorded as shown in table 3:
table 3 compares the effect of different treatments on pollen activity
According to the table 3, the activity of the pollen can be maintained by performing liquid nitrogen treatment on the pollen before refrigeration in the mode of the application, the pollen is frozen and loses activity due to direct refrigeration without adopting liquid nitrogen treatment, the liquid nitrogen treatment time is not too short or too long, and the applicant determines that the optimal liquid nitrogen treatment time is 8s through multiple experiments.
3. Comparing the influence of different preservation modes on the pollen activity, the activity of the pollen after 3 months of preservation is detected and classified into the following groups, and the recorded data are shown in table 4:
a first group: pollen Collection and preservation method described in example 2
Second group: the sterilization step was eliminated and the other procedure was carried out exactly as in example 2;
third group: the pollen is preserved as follows: subpackaging the sterilized cassava pollen obtained in the step (2) into a freezing storage tube, and storing the freezing storage tube filled with the pollen in an environment with the temperature lower than 10 ℃; otherwise exactly as in example 2;
and a fourth group: removing the sterilization step; meanwhile, the pollen preservation is that the sterilized cassava pollen obtained in the step (2) is subpackaged into a freezing storage tube, and the freezing storage tube filled with the pollen is preserved in an environment with the temperature lower than 10 ℃; otherwise the procedure was exactly as in example 2.
TABLE 4 Effect of different preservation methods on pollen Activity (I)
4. The activities of the above groups of pollen after 12 months of storage were continuously compared and the data recorded are shown in table 5:
TABLE 5 Effect of different preservation methods on pollen Activity (II)
As can be seen from the data in tables 4 and 5, the preservation method of the present application can maintain the activity of pollen, and the fourth group does not sterilize pollen, which results in the activity of pollen being continuously destroyed by microorganisms during the cold storage process, but the cold storage temperature cannot meet the requirement for maintaining activity.
