This plant is a great natural source of cannabinoids, which have several medical applications such as it is used for the treatment of anxiety and psychosis, disorders of motility and epilepsy. However, this plant is also notorious for its pollen allergic reactions. Mainly two species, that is, <jats:italic>C. sativa<\/jats:italic> L. and <jats:italic>C.indica<\/jats:italic> Lam. are involved in allergic reactions. In this study, morpho\u2010palynological studies of both the species were conducted. A number of morphological differences were observed in the both species. <jats:italic>C. sativa<\/jats:italic> is tall with narrowed leaves and fibrous stalk plant while <jats:italic>C. indica<\/jats:italic> is short, bushier, broad leaves, and having woody stalk plant. Both the species are varied in their pollen characteristics. The polar diameter of <jats:italic>C. sativa<\/jats:italic> observed was 7.5\u00a0\u03bcm and equatorial diameter was 8\u00a0\u03bcm, and its shape was oblate\u2010spheroidal. <jats:italic>C. indica<\/jats:italic> had 7\u00a0\u03bcm polar diameter, 7.5\u00a0\u03bcm equatorial diameter but its shape was similar to <jats:italic>C. sativa<\/jats:italic>, that is, oblate\u2010spheroidal. About 40%\u201150% people were affected with both these marijuana species and had symptoms of allergies like dry cough, congestion, itchy eyes, sore throat, nausea, a runny nose, watery eyes, and sneezing. It was concluded that both species' pollen are allergy causing and pollen of both species are different with variations in morphological and allergic symptoms.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Research Highlights<\/jats:title><jats:p><jats:list list-type=\"bullet\">\n<jats:list-item><jats:p>Marijuana has great therapeutic importance but it is also notorious for its pollen allergic reactions.
