Tetrad is a group of four haploid and immature pollen grains in tetrahedral fashion produced by meiotic microsporogenesis. The tetrads are of five types namely tetrahedral (most common), isobilateral, $T$ shaped, decussate and linera. In dicots, the most common type of pollen tetrad is tetrahedral.
