Purnachandra Rao. 7. An insight into investigations on pearl millet pollen prospect and challenges/B. Subba Rao and K.S. Malini. 8. Pollination and breeding ecology of some tropical plant species/P. Victor. 9. Certain airborne fungal spores and their allergenicity/N. Jagan Mohan Reddy. This issue brings out original research and review papers on pollen spore and pollination ecology. The topics covered include sexual systems breeding systems and pollination ecology of some tropical plants effectiveness to bees as pollinators pollen and nectar sources of the digger bee Amegilla prospects and challenges of pearl millet pollen air borne fungal spores and there allergenicity and application of remote sensing techniques in pollen studies. This research information is of immense value for biologists agriculturists apiculturists academicians etc. The authors of each paper have discussed their research findings in pollen and pollination ecology aero biology and applications of remote sensing techniques in atmospheric pollen studies. This information is expected to be useful for taking necessary measures for the conservation and management of plant species studied and their pollinators. Amegilla a ground nesting bee has been little studied in India. This issue provides some information on pollen and nectar sources of this bee and this information is useful for the conservation of this wild bee. Pearl millet is an economically and commercially important crop. The pollen information is highly valuable for breeding programmes to improve the genetics of this millet in order to increase yields and stability of the genome. There is very little information on the importance of remote sensing techniques in pollen studies and the paper included in this issue adds some information on the applications of remote sensing. 198 pp. Seller Inventory # 62648
