Hay fever allergen (6)

I believe the answer is:

pollen

(Other definitions for pollen that I've seen before include "Fertilising powder from plants" , "Seed released by plant" , "Powdery stuff produced by plants" , "Fine powder from certain plants" , "Fertilising dust from flower" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
