Abstract

Objective: In pathogenesis of diseases like asthma, allergic rhinitis and eczema, pollens are one of the important factor that determines its clinic. The taxa which of pollen seen in the atmosphere and the density of the pollens that belong to these taxa differ due to meteorological factors. In this research, density of pollens found in atmosphere of Camkoru (Ankara) and the plant taxa which they belong to were defined. Correlation between density of pollens of the defined taxa and several meteorological factors (mean temperature, wind speed, relative humidity and rainfall) was investigated.
