A concise account of pollen biology and biotechnology with an emphasis on recent developments. The discussion is largely confined to pollen grains of flowering plants. Topics are interdisciplinary, catering to plant breeders, horticulturalists and foresters in addition to pollen biologists.

The author offers an overview of pollen biology and biotechnology for students and researchers in areas such as reproductive biology, biotechnology, aeropalynology, plant breeding, horticulture, and forestry. Citing more than 1,500 references to pollen research, the text covers topics including advances in understanding pollen tube growth, the use of pollen for gene transfer, and advantages and disadvantages of various pollination systems for production of species limits.
