The effects of the fungicide Aliette WG 800 (80% fosetyl-Al (aluminium tris-o-ethyl phosphonate)) on the morphology and viability of tomato pollens were studied in tomato plants grown in a greenhouse. The fungicide was applied at recommended dosage (200 g/100 L water) and at double the recommended dosage (400 g/100 L water). The fungicide caused changes in the morphological structures of tomato pollens when applied at 200 g/100 L already. Pollen viability decreased as the dosage increased and non-viable pollen types such as wrinkled cells or pollen with abnormal shape were encountered.
