The study aims to evaluate the chemical composition of pollen grains and its effects on the yield and fruit quality of Barhee date palms.
Field experiment assessing male pollinizers (Jarvis, Ghanamy, Maghal) on Barhee date palms.
Analysis of pollen grain chemical composition including moisture, ash, fats, proteins, and mineral content.
Comparison of yield components and fruit physical and chemical properties among different pollinizers.
Jarvis pollinizer provided the highest bunch weight and fruit weight (e.g., yield/palm significantly higher) compared to Ghanamy and Maghal.
Pollen grains of Jarvis exhibited the highest viability and germination rates.
Jarvis resulted in superior fruit characteristics, including total sugars and carotenoids compared to other pollinizers.
