This review summarizes the available data related to the effects of air pollution on pollen
grains from different plant species. Several studies carried out either on in situ harvested …

Increase in the levels of air pollution due to the increase in industrial and agricultural
technology has prompted investigation of mechanisms that contribute to air pollution …

In the last years, a rising trend of pollen allergies in urban areas has been attributed to
atmospheric pollution. In this work, we investigated the effects of SO2 and NO2 on the …

The concentrations of nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and tropospheric ozone (O3) in urban and
industrial site atmospheres are considered key factors associated with pollen-related …

Air pollution induces abnormality in anthers, reduction of pollen grains umbers and male
sterility. Anthers of Spartium junceum L.(Spanish broom) were collected at different stages of …

The role of air pollution has been suspected to be an important factor in the recent increase
in the incidence of respiratory diseases. The ambient air, which is the carrier of pollen …

Pollen of Lagerstroemia indica was collected from polluted (SO2, NOx, CO, HC, airborne
particulate matter) and less polluted areas of Tehran city, Iran. Some pollen from less …

Betula pendula pollen, under laboratory conditions, was exposed to three atmospheric
pollutants: carbon monoxide (CO), ozone (O3) and sulphur dioxide (SO2). Two levels of …

There is now abundant evidence that the major effect of most air pollutants on plants is
invisible rather than visible. This research try to detects some microscopic effect of air …

The structure of the anthers and pollen of Lagerstroemia indica L.(crepe
