Abstract

---

Pollen morphology of 7 species of the genus Alyssum belonging to the family Brassicaceae have been examined by light microscope. Pollen grains are usually isopolar; tricolpate with reticulate tectum. It is a stenopalynous genus. However, the species of this genus show little variation in shape, size colpi length and exine pattern. Hence the palynological characters are significant at specific level.
