ABC model of flower development well as in the determination of the floral meristem. Therefore, the "AG" mutants are devoid of androecium and gynoecium and they have petals and sepals in their place. In addition, the growth in the centre of the flower is undifferentiated, therefore the petals and sepals grow in repetitive verticils. The "PLENA" ("PLE") gene is present in "A. majus", in place of the "AG" gene, although it is not an ortholog. However, the "FARINELLI" ("FAR") gene is an ortholog, which is specific to the development of the anthers and the maturation of pollen. In "Petunia", "Antirrhinum" and in maize the C
Pollen to pollen is called pollinosis, and allergy specifically to grass pollen is called hay fever. Generally, pollens that cause allergies are those of anemophilous plants (pollen is dispersed by air currents.) Such plants produce large quantities of lightweight pollen (because wind dispersal is random and the likelihood of one pollen grain landing on another flower is small), which can be carried for great distances and are easily inhaled, bringing it into contact with the sensitive nasal passages. Pollen allergies are common in polar and temperate climate zones, where production of pollen is seasonal. In the tropics pollen production varies less
