Bagging And Tagging In Plants. The male and female flowers are bagged separetly to prevent the entry of pollen grains from outside. The bags are tied at the base using a thread.
Then these emasculated flowers are wrapped in bags to prevent pollination by unwanted pollen grains. Company to invest over 5 million in two new packed cement packing lines at Rugby Plant. After dusting the pollengrains on stigma of emasculated flower it is rebagged and tag with relevant information such as date of emasculation date of pollination details of male and female parents etc is attached with plants.
This technique is an important part of the plant breeding programme as it ensures that pollen grains of only desirable plants are used for fertilization of the stigma to develop the desired plant variety.
It is necessary for female flowers to protect them from cross pollination by unwanted pollen grains. They are attached to the inflorescence or to the flower with the help of a thread. Water the young plants. In unisexual flowers bagging is done before the flowers are open.
