Palynology

 
     
  Palynology (Greek paluno, ‘I sprinkle’ + ology) is the study of pollen structure and its use in the identification of the parent plant. The most important application of palynology is in palaeobotany, since pollen grains are among the best-preserved of botanical material and can often be used to identify the parent plant species.
