Abstract

During 1977 to 1980 the course of flowering and pollen quality were investigated inSalix cinerea, S. fragilis, andS. pentandra, the dominant woody species in a wetland area called “Mokré louky” near Třeboň, South Bohemia, Czechoslovakia. Results were compared with basíc climatological data, and decisive factors of flowering were estimated. BothS. cinerea andS. pentandra produced morphologically well developed pollen with a high degree of viability. Comparison in twelve habitats showed that the pollen ofS. fragilis was very sensitive to climatic factors, and that the marsh habitat “Mokré Louky” was hostile to the generative reproduction of this species. Optimal conditions for pollen germination in vitro were defined for all the three willows.
