“…We can use the presence of Ericaceae in zones I, II, and III, in contrast with its absence in zones IV and V. The pollen richness of Ericaceae in Spanish honeys was recognised by Louveaux and Vergeron (1964), and Calluna vulgaris pollen is often found. This pollen type is absent in Corsican honeys (Battesti and Goeury 1992). In zone V, Lavandula latifolia appears, which is absent in other samples.…”

“…Determination of the geographical and floral origins of honeys has been carried out by microscopical analysis of pollen types (Maurizio 1975;Low et al 1989;Battesti and Goeury 1992). Low et al (1989) and Lutier and Vaissière (1993) showed the importance of a standardised method that minimises mistakes in characterization.…”

“…The honey production of an area mainly depends on the area's flora and climatology, because the flowering and nectar production season can be different for the same species in different areas (Zimmerman 1988). Statistical analyses have been carried out to characterize monofloral honeys (Battesti and Goeury 1992;Aira et al 1998;Seijo and Jato 1998). In León province, other melissopalynology studies have been carried out (ValenciaBarrera 1992;Valencia-Barrera et al 1994, 2000.…”

Herrero, B., Valencia-Barrera, R. M., San Martín, R. and Pando, V. 2002. Characterization of honeys by melissopalynology and statistical analysis. Can. J. Plant Sci. 82: 75-82. We analyzed pollen from 89 honey samples, collected in León and Palencia provinces (NW Spain). According to their pollen spectra, 46 were considered monofloral. The most abundant monofloral honeys were Erica types followed by Castanea, Centaurea, Reseda and Helianthus. One hundred and forty-two different pollen types were recorded, belonging to 47 families. Fifty-five of them reached percentages over 3% in at least one sample, while the other 87 types never exceeded 3% in any of the 89 samples. The families that were present in the highest number of samples were Fabaceae, Rosaceae, Cistaceae and Asteraceae. Plant families that had the highest percentages were Fabaceae, Ericaceae, Asteraceae, and Rosaceae. The pollen types that appeared in most samples were Rubus ulmifolius (73 samples), Cytisus scoparius (70) and Mentha aquatica (62); the pollen types that had the highest relative abundance were Erica arborea, Lotus corniculatus, Cytisus scoparius. The pollen types of the Ericaceae family, Jasione montana, and Lavandula latifolia types could be used as indicators of the origin of honeys among five zones in the area studied.The use of cluster and correlation statistical analyses proved useful in characterizing honey samples from a geographical and botanical point of view. The honey samples were divided into four classes according to the data matrix of presence/absence, and into seven classes according to absolute frequencies of pollen types in the samples. On a déterminé 142 types polliniques différents appartenant à 47 familles. 55% types polliniques ont atteint des pourcentages supérieurs à 3% dans quelques des échantillons étudiés. Les 87 autres types polliniques n'ont présenté de pourcentages supérieurs à 3% dans aucun des 89 échantillons étudiés. Les familles les plus souveur présentes parmi les miels étudiés ont été: Fabaceae, Rosaceae, Cistaceae et Ericaceae. Les familles qui ont atteint les pourcentages les plus élevés de représentation ont été: Fabaceae, Ericaceae, Asteracee et Rosaceae. Les types polliniques qui apparaissent dans le plus grand nombre d'échantillons sont: Rubus ulmifolius (73 échantillons), Cytisus scoparius (70 échantillons) et Mentha aquatica (62 échantillons). Les types polliniques qui ont atteint les plus grands pourcentages de présence ont été: Erica arborea, Lotus corniculatus et Cytisus scoparius. Les types polliniques de la famille Ericaceae, Jasione montana et Lavandula latifolia peuvent être utilisés comme indicateurs pour reconnaître la zone d'origine des miels étudiés dans ce domaine. On a constaté que l'emploi d'analyses statistiques cluster at corrélation a été très utile pour la caractérisation géographique et botanique, respectivement, des échantillons de miel étudiés par la répartition de ces échantillons en différentes classes. On a établi 4 zones géographiques (figure 2) et 7 types de miel. Dans...

“…A. hermanniae is very attractive and thus visited by honeybees, essentially for nectar in May and June [10]. Its particular pollen morphology, a tetracolporate grain, was mentioned for the first time in the pollen spectra of Corsican honeys; it is considered to be one of the characteristic taxa for geographical origin determination of honey from Corsica [10] [11]. Only one study has reported the presence of A. hermanniae, but as isolated pollen in pine and cotton honeys from Greece [12].…”

Melissopalynological, physicochemical, and volatile analyses of 29 samples of Corsican 'summer maquis' honey were performed. The pollen spectrum was characterized by a wide diversity of nectariferous and/or polleniferous taxa. The most important were Anthyllis hermanniae and Rubus sp., associated with some endemic taxa. Castanea sativa was also determined in these honeys with a great variation. The volatile fraction was characterized by 37 compounds and dominated by phenolic aldehydes and linear acids. The major compounds were phenylacetaldehyde, benzaldehyde, and nonanoic acid. Statistical analysis of pollen and volatile data showed that 18 samples were characterized by a high abundance of phenylacetaldehyde, which might relate to the high amount of A. hermanniae and Rubus sp. Eleven other samples displayed a higher proportion of phenolic ketones and linear acids, which characterized the nectar contribution of C. sativa and Thymus herba-barona, respectively.
