Abstract
A fully normal meiosis was found inAllium sativum L. by means of PMC analysis. Quadrivalents were formed only in several cultivars. The cultivation of inflorescence stem (after the exstirpation of bulblets) in a tetracycline solution of 900 i.u. induced a formation of fertile flowers. The first pollen mitosis was studied and the pollen parameters compared with those ofAllium cepa L. Evidence for the pollen sterility was given by crossings on sterile types. A microbiological factor was not isolated.
