Storage and Viability Testing of Protea Pollen [PDF]
Journal of the American Society for Horticultural Science, 1996 The influence of storage temperature and humidity on pollen viability was studied in four Protea species. Pollen was stored at a range of temperatures and relative humidities for up to 1 year and tested for ability to germinate in vitro. Pollen of P. repens

Autonomous Navigation of Pollen‐Inspired Magnetic Microrobots for Biomedical Applications
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.A sunflower pollen‐inspired magnetic microrobot enables controlled rolling navigation in vessel‐like environments. Its open geometry reduces hydrodynamic drag, while vision‐based closed‐loop control, shortest‐path planning, and reinforcement learning support target‐reaching and maze navigation with microrobot‐scale accuracy, highlighting a route toward

A Study on the Storage of Lilium Pollen.
Engei Gakkai zasshi, 1992 Pollen grains of Lilium species, cultivars and hybrids were stored at 4°C and tested for their viability by in vitro pollen germination and in vivo seed formation. Gelatin capsules were superior to paraffin paper pockets as receptacles to retain the germination capacity of pollen grains of L.
