摘　　要：[Objective] The aim was to research the rules of nectar quantity and sugar concentration of perfect and staminate flowers in a day. [Method] Based on nine Tianguang Yan pomegranate trees, nectar quantity and sugar concentration of per- fect and staminate flowers were measured and analyzed in morning and afternoon. [Result] Average nectar quantity and sugar concentration differed insignificantly in morning and afternoon of perfect flowers, which could also be applied to staminate flowers. However, average nectar quantity of perfect flower was 64.09 μI and of staminate flower was 44.07 μl. It is obvious that the two were of extremely signifi- cant differences （t=4.642, P〈0.01）, and the former was significantly higher by 45,43%. On the other hand, average sugar concentration of perfect flower was 48.44% and of staminate flower was 37.16%. The two were of extremely significant differences and the former is higher by 30.36%, compared with the latter. These suggested that nectar quantity and sugar concentration would maintain unchanged in different periods for a day, if nectars are not consumed by pollinators, such as bees and butterflies. In the same period, nectar quantity and sugar concentration of per- fect flowers were higher than those of staminate flowers. [Conclusion] The research provides references for benefits increase of bee farmers and fruit farmers, as well as exploration of bee pollination.[目的]研究石榴完全花和雄花全天的泌蜜量和糖浓度的规律。[方法]以9棵甜光颜石榴为试验材料,分别对其完全花和雄花的上午和下午两个时段的泌蜜量和糖浓度进行测定,并比较两种花的泌蜜量和糖浓度。[结果]完全花上午时段和下午时段的平均泌蜜量及花蜜平均糖浓度差异均不显著;雄花不同时段的平均泌蜜量及糖浓度差异亦不显著。完全花平均泌蜜量为64.09μl,雄花为44.07μl,二者间差异极显著(t=4.642,P<0.01),完全花平均泌蜜量显著高于雄花平均泌蜜量45.43%;完全花平均糖浓度为48.44%,雄花为37.16%,二者间差异极显著(t=4.354,P<0.01),完全花平均糖浓度显著高于雄花平均糖浓度30.36%。表明完全花和雄花在全天无论何时段开放,只要没有其他昆虫和鸟类取食到花蜜,泌蜜量和糖浓度差异不大。而在同时间完全花的泌蜜量和糖浓度高于雄花。[结论]该研究结果为提高果农及蜂农的经济效益及研究蜜蜂授粉机理提供了借鉴。
