花粉生理学的研究,从十九世紀末叶已經开始进行,几十年来,积累了相当丰富的資料,近十多年来进展尤其迅速,許多长期悬而未决的問題已經得到初步闡明,或正在解决之中。目前,花粉生理学已开始成为植物生理学中一个独特的研究方向。花粉生理学研究的不断发展,是由几方面的原因所促进的。花粉是植物生活史中一个重要时期,它代 Research on pollen physiology has been carried out since the end of the nineteenth century. For decades, a wealth of information has been accumulated. In particular, the progress made over the past 10 years has been particularly rapid. Many long-standing outstanding issues have been tentatively clarified or are being solved. At present, pollen physiology has become a unique research direction in plant physiology. The continuous development of pollen physiology is promoted by several reasons. Pollen is an important period in plant life history, it is on behalf of
