Objective:
To study the Pollination Characteristic of C. deserticola.
Method:
Four pollination methods were used, cross pollination coming different plant, cross pollination in one plant, wind pollination and no-pollination.
Result:
Cross pollinations coming different plant are fructiferous. The average fructication rate of cross pollination coming different plant is 94.1%; the average fructication rate of cross pollination in one plant is 52.2%; The seed qulitity of cross pollination coming different plant is better than the cross pollination in one plant.
Conclusion:
Cross pollinations coming different plant have a high quantity and quality of seeds of C. deserticola.
