Abstract :Pollen morphology of Gypsophila laricina L. were investigated using light microscopy insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(LM);, scanning electron microscopy insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(SEM);, and transmission electron microscopy insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(TEM);. Pollen morphology features this taxon was determined based on palynological studies. Pollen grains are spheroidal and periporate. The exine structure is intectate The exine sculpture is clavatemicroechinate ornamentation. The operculum exists in the form as a whole in this taxon. The exine consists of 2 parts; the upper part is the thick ectexine and the lower part is the thin endexine. The endexine is thin and continuousKeywords : Caryophyllaceae, Gypsophila, pollen morphology, LM, SEM, TEM
