Petunia hybrida pollen contained a very large amount of phytic acid (2.1% by weight) which comprised 37% of the total phosphorus content of the pollen grain. In a survey of a wide range of plants, all species with a style length of 5 mm or more had a significant (0.05-2.1% by weight) pollen content of phytic acid. These included Juglans regia, Pistacia chinensis, Antirrhinum majus, Lilium henryi and Strelitzia reginae. In contrast the composites and grasses (except for maize) tested had very short styles and no detectable phytic acid in pollen. It is suggested that phytic acid is involved in providing precursors for cell-wall synthesis necessary for rapid pollen tube elongation down the styles of pollinated plants.
