Abstract: 【OBJECTIVE】In order to study the suitable media components, temperture of Alnus formosana pollen, and the fast detetminination method of its pollen viability.【METHOD】With Fresh pollen of Alnus formosana as the experimental material, In vitro culture and 3 staining tests(TTC staining, I2-KI staining and peroxidase settling process) were conducted to determine the pollen viability.【RESULTS】The optimum culture solution was sucrose 10g/L+H3BO3 10mg/L.Peroxidase settling process was the optimum staining for the fast determination of Alnus formosana pollen viability. 【CONCLUSION】Sucrose and H3BO3 were essential for pollen germination of Alnus formosana.
