Pollen grain bioassay for environmental contamination biomonitoring
Pollen grain bioassay near some highways was performed in 45 plant species for identification of environmental genotoxic impact on naturally growing plants due to environmental traffic contaminants. A relationship between the duration of heavy traffic on

Preliminary studies on mustard taxonomy based on pollen morphology
Pollen grains of 17 mustard subspecies were examined under scanning electron microscope. The result showed that the pollen shapes were nearly spherical, or spheroidal, or super-spheroidal from the equatorial view, depending on cultivars of mustard.
