Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Captan inhibited pollen germination in strawberry.
- Observation Toxic effects of captan on strawberry pollen did not disappear during prolonged germination.
- Intervention effect Captan sprayed on undehisced anthers slightly affected strawberry pollen germination.
- Intervention effect Spraying open flowers before anther dehiscence reduced berry set in the variety Siletz.
- Intervention effect Spraying after anther dehiscence decreased achene set and berry development in strawberry.
- Association Proportion of mishappen strawberry fruits increased with captan concentration.
- Intervention effect Pollination from captan-sprayed anthers was less effective for fruit setting than control pollination of sprayed pistils.
- Intervention effect Sprays applied to strawberry pistils decreased fruit set.
- Intervention effect Sprays one day after pollination did not affect strawberry fruit set.
- Mechanism Captan seems to act directly on strawberry pollen germination rather than on stigma receptivity, pollen tube growth or fertilization.
