The first data have been presented concerning pollen development and viability in Abies holophylla. Under climatic conditions of the Korea Forest Research Institute the process microsporogenesis extends from the Mid-February till April 19. Frequenceis of meiotic irregularities averaged at 9.1% in two study trees as compared with 16.1% of abortive tetrads, 17.1% of abnormal pollen grains and 12.6% of disturbances during prothalial cell divisions. Cytologically, the most common types of meiotic irregularities were non-incorporated chromosomes into metaphase plates together with anaphase bridges and asynchronous movement of the chromosomes towards the poles of a microsporocyte.
