Common Allergenic Weeds: Their Pollen Morphology and Management Measures | Chapter 1 | Emerging Challenges in Agriculture and Food Science Vol. 2

 Weeds and plants typically produce enough lightweight pollen to pollinate themselves. In a single day, a single plant can produce 1 million to several million pollen grains; exposure to these can cause pollen allergy, seasonal rhinitis/ rhinosinusitis, asthma, and dermatitis, among other things. The link between the start of symptoms and plant pollination time is the most important factor in allergenic response. According to various studies, weed pollens are responsible for 60-75 percent of seasonal rhinitis, grass weed pollens for 40%, and tree pollens for 10%. The pollination season of different plants varies depending on the species and their geographic location. Flowering/pollination seasons, pollen morphology, and control techniques of common allergenic weeds are discussed in this research. Weeds can be eradicated before flowering and used as biomass in agriculture and industry, depending on their pollination cycle.
