Automobile emissions give a lot of atmospheric pollution. Pollutants impact adversely on the growth and the pollen viability of the vegetation of Chapra town. The aim of this research work was to study the pollen viability and the plant growth of some angiosperms. Polluted and Controlled sites were selected. An analytical study was done. The result...

Pollen grains are male gametophytes and are responsible for sexual reproduction in angiosperms. The fertility of plants depend on it. Intense air pollution condition of a place effects badly on the fertility of plants of that area. Air pollution caused by vehicular emission results asymmetry in anthers and reduces the quantity and quality of male i...

The flora of Patna is highly diverse, hence, the aim of this study was to examine the pollen vegetation of Patna, to help in the study of plant evolution and systematics. A field survey with laboratory methods was used to prepare the list of plants. The habit and the habitat, along with other details were noted for each plant. Anther was collected,...

Plants show a response to air contamination and so known as bio indicators. The conglomerated pollutants in the atmosphere and their harmful effect have fascinated researchers to study environmental issues. The usage of air pollution and bio-indicators usually cover metallic deadliness in traffic, smelters, withdrawal activities, industrial polluti...

Drought is a major abiotic stress that limits the performance of sweet basil (Ocimumbasilicum L.), which is an important aromatic plant for flavor foods and traditional medicines. Pollen represents the substantial stage in plants. Fertile pollen plays an important role in seasoned plant reproduction. Plant–pollinator interactions are mediated by flor...

Bio-indicators are applied to display the wellness of the natural ecosystem in the environment. Bio indicators have an important role in the evaluations of environmental wellness with geographical changes, happening in the environment. Bio-indicators or bio-monitors are known to work as an ecological bio-indicator, Environmental Bio-indicator, biod...

Besides toxic gases and radiations environmental pollution is also affected badly by the airborne microscopic particles of fungal spores, pollen grains, dust particulate matter, and molds. They menace the life functioning of man, animals, and plants. People of today’s era are conscious to keep the climate free from pollution. Pollen grains are the...

This research work was done to make an attempt to find out the relationship and interaction between Environmental Ethics, Scientific approach, and scientism toward Sustainable Development. Since sustainability can be accomplished through Education. So Education and related training are considered to play a major role in sustainability. The idea of...

Air pollutants have a detrimental impact on plant growth. Automobile emissions enumerate different kinds of contaminants like heavy metals, gaseous toxins, etc.., to the atmosphere. Pollen grains of seed-bearing plants have been found to be sensitive to these pollutants, which show diverse effects on their viability, and size and hence can be used...

Aeroallergens are defined as airborne particles that induce allergic reactions. Pollen grains are also known as aeroallergen which is an airborne allergy-causing substance. They are a subset of various forms of aerosols starting from submicroscopic particles to relatively larger pollen grains, fungal spores....etc. To be clinically important, aeroa...

Some plants are poisonous in nature because they contain cyanogenic glycosides in their different parts. Cyanogenic glycosides are natural plant toxins. Due to the presence of these toxic compounds, plants may be harmful to herbivores, insects, and honeybees. The poisonous parts of plants are mainly seeds, leaves, flowers, pollen, and nectar...Etc....

Growing human population, rapid industrialization, and urbanization play a key role in increasing air pollution in our surroundings. Air pollution has many adverse effects on plant pollen grains. Since plant fertility and precise insemination of plants mostly depend on the pollen grains of angiosperms plants. Therefore, due to severe air pollution...

Respiratory allergy is an extensive public health problem globally. The increasing incidence of allergies and allergic diseases is widely recognized worldwide. Research has shown that most hay fever is caused by wind-transported pollen. Species that are known to be considerably allergenic i.e., Ragweed pollen, are seen each year on the slides from...

A banana is an elongated edible fruit that comes from the family of Musacaea. Banana plants thrive in tropical regions where the average temperature is 80° F (27° C) and the yearly rainfall is between 78 and 98 inches. Banana plants are cold intolerant. Banana plants do not have a strong defense mechanism against the cold. Low temperature causes se...

The pollen grain is a minute body of varying shape and structure, formed in the male structures of seed-bearing plants. Because pollen grains have unique biological characteristics, contain a large amount of genetic information, and exhibit strong genetic conservation, they can be used for species identification. Here, pollen fertility of some spec...

The definition of ethnobotany can be summed up in four words i.e. People, Plants, Interactions, and Uses. Ethnobotanical studies focused on contributing to plant biodiversity knowledge on one hand and taking this knowledge for further social and scientific interventions on the other hand. To discover the secret uses of plants, ethnobotany has becom...

Euryale ferox comes from the family Nymphaeaceae and is commonly known as a prickly water lily or Gorgon plant. It thrives in stagnant water in tropical climatic conditions. It produces edible seeds known as Fox nuts, which are widely used in Indian cuisine. Wastewater treatment works by employing several physical, chemical, and biological treatmen...

Pollen is a fine yellowish powdery substance consisting of pollen grains which are male micro gametophytes of seed plants. Pollen is essential for the sexual reproduction of flowering plants and for those plants that produce cones. Morphological characteristics of pollen grains are of different groups like pollen units, polarity, symmetry, shape, s...
