Studies on the Pollen Morphology in the Lythraceae
부처꽃과의 화분형태에 관한 연구
Abstract
Pollen grains of 26 genera and 62 species of the Lythraceae were investigated by means of light microscopy. The result reveals that the family is divided into three pollen groups which are characterized by having a non-, 3- and 6-pseudocolpate aperture. The palynological study suggests a revision of the subfamilial division. Some taxonomic problems between the genera were discussed on the pollen morphology.
