The Investigation of Morphologic Analysis of Pollen Grains Which are Economically Important and Collected by Apis mellifera L.

Pollen samples were collected during from May to September of year 2001 from six regions where the most of the beekeeping process is realized in Bursa. Fourteen kinds of pollen taxa collected by Apis mellifera L. and which have the highest amount compared the others were selected as appropriate ones to study for morphological analysis because of their economical importance. As a result of identifications which have been made in microscope, 14 kinds of pollen samples that belong to 8 family have been determined.
