[ba bteng] U diengsoh kynphor u long uwei na ki jaid jingthung uba long kumta. Uwei u dieng u don da ki syntiew kynthei, uwei pat u don da ki syntiew shynrang. ha u soh kynphor dei tang ki dieng kiba don syntiew kynthei kiba bah khun, kata ka mut kiba pynmih soh. Ha u dieng uba don tang ki syntiew shynrang ym ju don soh. La kumta ruh, don ki dieng soh Kynphor kiba don teng-teng baroh ar jaid ki syntiew. Kaba donkam ia u nongrep ban tip shaphang kane ka long ba ia u dieng soh Kynphor shynrang um ju bah khun, la katta ruh ha ka bri soh Kynphor donkam katto-katne ki dieng soh Kynphor shynrang, khnang ba ki soh Kynphor ha u dieng Soh Kynphor kynthei kin heh bha bad kin pynmih symbai.
Don kiwei pat ki jingthung kiba don ar jaid ki syntiew ha uwei u jingthung, kum u riewhadem lane ki pathaw, ki klong bad kiwei kiwei. Kito kiba thung riewhadem kin kynmaw ba ha u riewhadem don u syntiew ha kliar jong u jingthung, bad uwei pat u jaid syntiew hamar pdeng jong u jingthung riewhadem. Uto u syntiew uba na kliar u dei uba kit tang ia ki syntiew shynrang; hynrei uto uba hapdeng jong u jingthung u dei uba kit tang ia ki syntiew kynthei. Ynda ki bynta (elements) na u shynrang kiba ki khot “pollen” ki iakynduh bad ki bynta jong u syntiew kynthei (Ovule) hangta u symbai riewhadem u lah ban long khlem kane ka jingiakynduh kaba ki khot pollination (kynnoh pollineshon), u symbai riewhadem um lah ban long. Kaba donkam eh ia ki nongrep ban tip ia kine ka long ba lada ki thung arjaid ki riewhadem kiba iapher marjan-marjan, kita ki riewhadem ki lah ban ia poikha bad kumta ki symbai kiba mih na kata ka jingiapoikha kin long kiba arjaid, bad ki khun lei-lei ki lah ban long kiba bun jaid. Ki nongrep ki lah ban kynmaw ba ha uwei u kop riewhadem don ki symbai teng-teng kiba stem bad kiba saw, lane da kawei-kawei pat ka rong. Kane ka pyni ba la don ka jingiapoikha hapdeng ar jaid ki riewhadem kiba iapher namar la thung marjan ia ki. Ia une u pollen uba long kum u phngit uba stem, ka l’er ka lah ban kit na u syntiew shynrang sha u syntiew kynthei jong uwei pat u riewhadem haduh kumba shiteng mail (mile). Kumta wat leit iathung arjaid ki riewhadem ioh ki ia khleh.
Ia ki pollen jong u syntiew shynrang jong u klong bad u pathaw pat la kit da ki khniang kum ki ngap bad kiwei-kiwei ha ki kjat jong ki. Haba kine ki ngap ki her na uwei u syntiew sha uwei pat ki iehnoh, khlem tip, katto-katne ki pollen ha u shyntiew kynthei. Bunsien ki pathaw bad ki klong kim lah ban long bha lada ki ngap kim iarap ia ki ha kane ka jingiapoikha. Ha ri America ki da ri ngap khnang ha ki brisoh heh, kum ha ki bri sohphoh, na ka bynta kane.
Ha kiba kham bun ki jingthiing pat, ki bynta jong u syntiew shynrang bad ki bynta jong ki syntiew kynthei ki don lang ha uwei bad u juh hi u syntiew. Ia u syntiew uba kum une ki khot ha ka Botany (kynnoh botani). Ka jingstad kaba dei ia ki jingthung jingtep, u perfect flower, kata u syntiew ba janai. U syntiew jong u kynphad, u duma sla, u motor (pea), u sohbaingon saw, u sohmynken, u kba, u kew bad jong kiwei-kiwei ki jingthung u long u syntiew uba janai, kata uba don baroh ar tylli ki bynta hapoh uwei bad ujuh hi u syntiew. Na ka liang jong u nongrep, kine ki jaid jingthung ki long kiba kham jem ban pyniakyrpang ia ki jaid jong ki. Kata ka mut ba uwei u jaid kba um iapoikha bad uwei pat u jaid kba, lymda u briew hi u pyniapoikha da kaba shim ia ki pollen na uwei u syntiew kba bad u pyniakynduh bad ki bynta kiba long kynthei jong uwei pat u kba. Kan long kaba sngewphylla lehse ia kiba bun ban tip ba ki riewstad kiba ki khot ki “Plant breeders” (kynnoh plant bridar) ki ju iapynpoikha ia ki jingthung ha kane ka rukom. Uwei u riewstad ha America uba kyrteng u Burbank u pyniapoikha ia u sohbaingon saw bad u phan bad u pynmih ia u jingthung uba long shiteng sohbaingon saw bad shiteng u phan. Hangne ha ri India jong ngi ruh la don bun ki riewstad kiba nang bha ia kane ka kam pyniapoikha hapdeng ki jingthung. U Sir Venkataraman, u Madrasi, u la lah ban pynmih u jingthung uba long kum u pai bad u siej da kaba pyniapoikha ia u pai bad u siej.
Ngi kwah ban ai jingmut ia ki nongpule shuwa ba ngin iehnoh ia kane ka jingbatai shaphang ki syntiew ba ki syntiew baroh ki don la ki rong kiba iapher-iapher, bad ki dur kiba har rukom khnang ba ki lah ban pyndep ia kane ka kam kaba phylla katta-katta. U syntiew uba lieh bunsien u donkam ia ki khniang kiba trei kam mynmiet, ban iarap ia ki ban pynkynriah ia u pollen na uwei u jingthung sha uwei pat u para jingthung. Ki rong kiba iapher-iapher ki ring pah ia ki thapbalieh bad ia ki ngap ban iarap ia ki ha kane ka kam. Ki jingthung ki bym donkam ia ki khniang pat bunsien ki pynmih ki syntiew ki bym don rong ei-ei, kum u syntiew kba lane u syntiew riewhadem.
U Soh Bad u Symbai
Kiwei pat ki bynta jong u jingthung kiba donkam ban batai lyngkot ki long u soh bad u symbai. Ngi lah ban ong ba u symba u long u khun uba mih na katei ka jingiapoikha ha ki jingthung. U soh u long tang ka sop kaba ri ia u symbai. Ki rong u soh, bad wat ka dur ka dar jong u, ka shu iarap tang ban pynlong ia u symbai uba seisoh, bad uba lah ban pynmih khun lashai lashisngi. Ka rong jong u soh ka iarap ia u ban ring pah ia ki sim ne ki mrad ban iohi ia u kumta ba kin leit rah ia u soh bad ki symbai kiba don hapoh jong u sha kylleng ki jaka. Kane ka iarap ban pynroi ia uta u jingthung.
Kane imat ka long ka buit jong ka mariang ban ym pynduhjaid ia uno-uno u jingthung. Ki nongrep ki donkam ban kynmaw ia kane ba ki jingthung baroh kiba long tang na u symbai kim lah ban long khlem u symbai; kumta lada ngi pynjot ia u symbai ngi la pynjot ia u jingthung uba lah ban long na u. Kiba bun eh na ki niut kiba long ki nognshun jong u nongrep ki long na ki symbai. Lada ngin ym shah ia kita ki niut ba kin pynmih symbai, kata ngi la lah ban pynduh ia ki. La kumta ruh, don ki niut, kum u lang pur, kiba roi khlem symbai. [yn dang bteng]
