چکیده

The taxonomical recognition of microscopic biological particles such as pollen and spores is relevant for medical and aerobiological applications. Focusing on an accurate and automatic vision-based pollen recognition system, we propose a method for classification of pollen apertures based on bag-of-words strategy, with the ability of learning new types from different taxa without the need of new algorithms. Results demonstrate suitable performance and ability to add new taxa.

Pollen peculiarities

In flowering plants, male meiosis occurs in the microsporocyte to produce four microspores, each of which develops into a pollen grain. The image at top left is a transmission electron micrograph of a wild-type microspore from Arabidopsis thaliana, showing the single, central nucleus. The tetraspore (tes) mutant of Arabidopsis fails to undergo cytokinesis at the end of male meiosis and all four...

A TAXONOMIC STUDY OF CORYDALIS SUBGENERA AND SECTIONS IN IRAN USING ANATOMIC AND POLLEN CHARACTERISTICS

The stem anatomy and pollen morphology of Iranian members of the genus Corydalis (except C. seisumsiana in pollen morphology) were studied using light and SEM microscopy. The results verified the argument that the tuberous sections of Corydalis, including Radix-cava, Corydalisand Leonticoides could be classified in a single subgenus as a natural grouping. The study also revealed that the specie...
