The pollen morphology of 23 Allium L. species, grown in Turkey, belonging to the sections; Rhizirideum, Schoenoprasum, Cepa, Molium, Brevispatha, Scorodon, Acanthoprason and Melanocrommyum, were investigated by LM (light microscopy), TEM (transmission electron microscope), SEM (scanning microscopy). This paper presents detailed morphological features are given for these taxa. Common characteris...

The pollen morphology of Pelargonium endlicherianum Fenzl. and Pelargonium quercetorum Agnew. from the family Geraniaceae was examined under light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. Pollen morphologies are eurypalynous. The pollen grains were tricolporate, prolate-spheroidal and large. Aperture was ectoaperture, colpus was short, and the pores were oblate-spheroidal and large. The exi...

Palaeoflora in Pakistan the Miocene is characterized by its high biodiversity. The present study investigated pollen of fossil plants from Murree Formation Pakistan. Shales and mudstones were collected section located at foothills Margalla hills analyzed palynofacies palynostratigraphic analyses. In this paleopalynological Formations Pakistan, 31 samples using microscopic techniques containing ...

Cousinia papillosa (Asteraceae) from eastern Iran is described and illustrated as a new species. Differences between the new species and its closest relative, C. meshhedensis, are discussed. A map showing the distribution of the two species is given. The scanning electron micrography of the pollen grains shows obvious differences between the two species especially in the sculpturing of exine. T...
