Taxonomic importance of pollen morphology in Veratrum L. (Melanthiaceae) using microscopic techniques.

Summary

This study aimed to clarify the controversial intrageneric relationships of the genus Veratrum of the family Melanthiaceae. Through detailed observation of pollen morphology using light and electron microscopes, researchers investigated their significance for Veratrum taxonomy. The results revealed unique characteristics that support classifying Veratrum into two separate species rather than sections. The ratio of polar to equatorial axis length, pollen characteristics, colpus morphology, and surface ornamentation were found to be important in species identification and delimitation. This study contributes to a better understanding of Veratrum taxonomy and can aid in future research.
