| Summary: | In this study, the distribution of Olea europaea L. pollens in the atmospheres of Aydin, Manisa and Mugla, where the olive trees are widespreated were investigated. Accordance with the volumetric method, the annual changes of pollen from this taxon and the effect of meteorological factors on the pollen season were investigated between 2014-2016. Aydin is the province with the highest number of olive pollen in the atmosphere during two years study period. Olive pollen in this city accounted for 20.92% of all pollens recorded in the atmosphere and ranked first among the dominant taxa. However in Manisa and Mugla olive pollen ranked third with 15.55% and 7.16% respectively. Highest olive pollen counts were dedected in May in all regions but it was observed that the main pollen seasons differed by the effects of meteorological changes between the provinces and the years. On the other hand daily pollen counts belonging to this taxon were correlated with the meteorological parameters and significant results were determined between daily pollen count and daily average temperature ( C), total precipitation (mm) and daily average relative humidity (%) according to the Spearman correlation test (p<0.01, p<0.05). |
