A Palynotaxonomic Study on the Korean Theaceae
한국산 차나무과의 화분분류학적 연구
Abstract
Pollen grains of six geners and six species from Korean Theaceae were observed with light and scanning electron microscopes. Pollen morphology divided the investigated species into the tricolporoidate Theoideae and the tricolporate Ternstroemiodideae. On the basis of surface sculpturing pattern, further palynological relationships and classificatin were understood. Some of the nomenclatural problems were discussed along with the palynological results.
