Pollen morphology and harmomegathic characters of byttneria löfl. species (Sterculiaceae S. S: Subfam. Byttnerioideae)

Pollen morphology and harmomegathic characters of byttneria löfl. species (Sterculiaceae S. S: Subfam. Byttnerioideae)

A palynological study was conducted on seven species of Byttneria Löfl. The objectives of this study was to understand the variation in micromorphological and harmomegarthic characteristics of pollen in Byttneria species in Malaysia and Singapore. In doing so, more information on the species of St...
