If you have a university contact with inter-library loan privileges and a Russian speaking friend (they're all in Russian) that owes you a favor, you might be able to find more about how they did it in one of the references below.  No doubt, the journal titles are a bit mangled from the cyrillic translation, but a good ILL colleague could probably still hunt them down for you.

Hi Lon,

Yes, I've seen that definition more than the following once.  (Method
A)

I've also read mentoring is taking dead pollen of the female species
and
mixing it with live pollen from the other species then mix and apply
both to the
female flower. The dead pollen has chemical or mechanical properties
that
tricks the stigma's rejection mechanisms. Thus allowing the approach
live sperm to
develop the pollen tube and sperm to pass to the egg.  (Method B)

Who knows maybe he used B on A material!!!

Jerry
