Pollen - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pollen is a fine to coarse powder consisting of microgametophytes ( pollen grains ), which produce the male gametes (sperm cells) of seed plants. A hard coat covering the pollen grain protect...

Pollination - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pollination is the process by which pollen is transferred in plants, thereby enabling fertilization and sexual reproduction. Pollen grains, which contain the male gametes (sperm) to where the female ...

Significant associations with mugwort pollinosis and several plant-derived food allergies are demonstrated, suggesting a new mustard-mugwort allergy syndrome. A relationship between this syndrome and food-dependent exercise-induced anaphylaxis is also reported.

To be pollinated, pollen must be moved from a stamen to the stigma. When pollen from a plant's stamen is transferred to that same plant's stigma, it is called self-pollination. When pollen from a plant's stamen is transferred to a different plant's stigma, it is called cross-pollination.

Pollen has been reported to the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality as yellow paint, white paint, oil, scum, and even sludge. This phenomenon is caused by plant pollen that is distributed onto the water where it sticks and collects.

Pollen grains (from the greek palynos for dust or pollen) contain the male gametophyte (microgametophyte) phase of the plant. Pollen grains are produced by meiosis of microspore mother cells that are located along the inner edge of the anther sacs (microsporangia).

Working with the mustard plant Arabidopsis thaliana, researchers have now identified a key molecular signal that lures the pollen tube toward the egg cells. The molecule—called gamma-aminobutyric acid, or GABA—also plays a role in the mammalian nervous system.
