Abstract: The quantities of Vitamins A, E, C, 18 amino acids, protein, phospholipids and glucose oxidase in the pollen of Pinus tabulaeformis Carr, Pinus bungeana Zucc and Picea wilsonii Mast., which are prevalent in China, are found to be considerably high through the present research. The content of Vitamin A is 70 641.6 IU/100g and the total amino acid is 24.443 mg/100 mg in the pollen of Picea wilsonii. So the pollen of Picea wilsonii is excellent as a nutrient source.
