INTERIANO ZAPATA, Iván et al. Effect of pollination of strawberry by Apis mellifera L. and Chrysoperla carnea S. on quality of the fruits. Nova scientia [online]. 2015, vol.7, n.13, pp.85-100. ISSN 2007-0705.
The contribution of Apis mellifera L. and Chrysoperla carnea S. as strawberry pollinators were evaluated using primary flowers of the Festival cultivar from Irapuato, Guanajuato, Mexico. The treatments were: self-fertilizing (SF), open pollination (OP), Apis mellifera (AM) and Chrysoperla carnea (CC). The pollination rate per treatment showed that there were significant differences in AM (85.20 ± 2.41) compared with SF (41.51 ± 3.92), OP (77.98 ± 2.11) and CC (48.46 ± 2.97). There were significant differences for misshaped rate in AM (16.78 ± 1.20) compared with SF (52.53 ± 1.54), OP (23.34 ± 1.03) and CC (47.88 ± 2.02). The total anthocyanin, weight, diameter and total solid soluble of the fruits were significant higher in AM compared with SF, OP and CC treatments. The number of ovules fertilized was positively correlated with the weight of the fruit. Chrysoperla carnea is considered as poor pollinator, but the use of Apis mellifera could be an alternative to increment production and quality of fruit of strawberries cultivated in Irapuato, Gto., México.
