Main article: Pollination syndrome

The hoary plantain (Plantago media) is an anemophilous species

Pine trees are anemophilous

Anemophily or wind pollination is a form of pollination whereby pollen is distributed by wind. Pollination syndromes are suites of traits of Flowers aimed at attracting a particular type of Pollinator (Faegri & van der Pijl 1979 Proctor et al Pollination in angiosperms and Gymnosperms is the process that transfers pollen grains, which contain the male Gametes (sperm to where the female Pollen is a fine to coarse powder consisting of microgametophytes ( pollen grains) which produce the male Gametes (sperm cells of Wind is the flow of Air or other Gases that compose an Atmosphere (including but not limited to the Earth's) Unlike entomophilous and zoophilous species, whose pollen is spread by insects and vertebrates respectively, anemophilous species do not develop scented flowers, nor do they produce nectar. See also Pollination syndrome Entomophily is a form of pollination whereby Pollen is distributed by Insects particularly Bees See also Pollination syndrome Zoophily is a form of Pollination whereby pollen is transferred by Vertebrates particularly by Hummingbirds Insects ( Class Insecta) are a major group of Arthropods and the most diverse group of Animals on the Earth with over a million described Vertebrates are members of the Subphylum Vertebrata, Chordates with backbones or spinal columns The grouping sometimes includes A flower, also known as a bloom or Blossom, is the reproductive structure found in Flowering plants (plants of the division Magnoliophyta, also Nectar is a Sugar -rich liquid produced by plants It is produced either by the Flowers in which it attracts pollinating animals or by extrafloral

Male and female reproductive organs are generally found in separate flowers, the male flowers having a number of long filaments terminating in exposed stamens, and the female flowers having long, feather-like stigmas. The stamen ( Plural stamina or stamens, from Latin stamen meaning "thread of the warp " is the male Feathers are one of the epidermal growths that form the distinctive outer covering or Plumage, on Birds They are considered the most complex integumentary structures A gynoecium (from Ancient Greek gyne, "woman" is the Female reproductive part of a Flower.

Pollen from anemophilous plants tends to be smaller and lighter in weight than pollen from entomophilous ones, with very low nutritional value to insects. However, insects sometimes gather pollen from staminate anemophilous flowers at times when higher protein pollens from entomophilous flowers are scarce. Proteins are large Organic compounds made of Amino acids arranged in a linear chain and joined together by Peptide bonds between the Carboxyl Also anemophilous pollens may also be inadvertently captured by bees' electrostatic field. Bees are flying Insects closely related to Wasps and Ants Bees are a Monophyletic lineage within the superfamily Apoidea Electrostatics is the branch of Science that deals with the Phenomena arising from what seems to be stationary Electric charges Since Classical This may explain why, though bees are not observed to visit ragweed flowers, its pollen is often found in honey made during the ragweed floral bloom. Ragweeds ( Ambrosia) also called bitterweeds and bloodweeds, are a Genus of flowering Plants from the sunflower Melissopalynology is the study of Honey. By extension it also includes the study of any Pollen contained in honey as well as the pollen's source Honey is a sweet and Viscous fluid produced by Honey bees (and some other species and derived from the nectar of Flowers According to the Other flowers that are generally anemophilous are observed to be actively worked by bees, with solitary bees often visiting grass flowers, and the larger honeybees and bumblebees frequently gathering pollen from corn tassels and other grains. Poaceae or Gramineae is a family in the Class Liliopsida of the flowering plants. This article refers collectively to all true honey bees for the "common" domesticated honey bee see European honey bee Honey bees A bumblebee (or bumble bee) is any member of the Bee Genus Bombus, in the family Apidae; there are over 250 known species primarily Maize (ˈmeɪz ( Zea mays L. ssp mays) known as corn in some countries is a cereal grain domesticated in Mesoamerica

Almost all pollens that are allergens are anemophilous. An allergen is a nonparasitic Antigen capable of stimulating a Type-I hypersensitivity reaction in atopic individuals Ragweed, the bane of many hayfever sufferers, is anemophilous. Ragweeds ( Ambrosia) also called bitterweeds and bloodweeds, are a Genus of flowering Plants from the sunflower Hay Fever is a comic play written by Noel Coward in 1924 and first produced in 1925 with Marie Tempest as the first Judith Bliss Its pollen has been found at sea hundreds of miles from its source. Spring hayfever often traces to pollens from birches. Birch is the name of any Tree of the genus Betula ( Bé-tu-la) in the family Betulaceae, closely related to the

Other common anemophilous plants are mosly grass species, conifers, sweet chestnuts, and members of the hickory family. Grass is the common word that generally describes Monocotyledonous green Plants The family Gramineae ( Poaceae) are the "true grasses" and include The Sweet Chestnut ( Castanea sativa, family Fagaceae) also known as the Spanish Chestnut Portuguese Chestnut or European chestnut is a species of Chestnut Trees in the genus Carya (from Ancient Greek κάρυον " Nut " are commonly known as Hickory.
