Abslracl: The pejibaye is in the process of being improved by modem agrogenetic techniques and the breeding
programs need reliable methods for manipulating and storing pollen for making controlled crosses. Several tests were
run on pollen from two landraces: (1) germination in a glucose solution, with and without boron; (2) germination of
fresh pollen in a solution of glucose, sacarose, lactose or galactose; (3) drying in oven, desecator jar and open air: (4)
drying time and silica gel quantity in desecator jar: (5) germi nation of dried pollen in a solution of glucose, sacarose,
lactose or galactose; (6) storage at room temperature (""25 C), refrigerator (8 C) and freezer (_8 C) of dried pollen
in vacuum sealed vials. Sacarose at 2.5%, with boron at 0.01%, gave best germination results; drying for 14 hours
over 100 g silica gel in 5 liter desicator jars gave best results, storage in freezer gave 40% viability after six months.
