THE pollen grain provides the biologist with an elegantly simple and useful tool. The
science of palynology has demonstrated the utility of pollen architecture to the taxonomist and paleontologist; pollen tube cytology has aided in the elucidation of radiation effects; pollen physiology and chemistry have shed light on the breeding systems
of higher plants. These and other facts about the male gametophyte of angiosperms
have been considered in the reviews of Wulff and Maheshwari (1938) and of Maheshwari
(1949).
