  • Abstract:
  • During the present investigation, Pollen morphological studies of 11 species belonging to 6 families of monocot from Murshidabad District, West Bengal have been studied by light microscopy. The investigated families are Agavaceae, Amaryllidaceae, Arecaceae, Cannaceae, Commelinaceae and Pontideriaceae. The apertural type belongs to anasulcate to trichotomosulcate. The shape of the Pollen grains varies from oblate to spheroidal. Palynological studies remark on the Pollen diversity of different families. Palynological features have been evaluated in understanding the taxonomy of different monocot families.
