Sneeze trigger (6)

I believe the answer is:

pollen

(Other definitions for pollen that I've seen before include "Fine powder given off by plants" , "Powdery substance given off by flowers" , "Fine powder discharged from a plant" , "Fertilising grains" , "Powdery stuff produced by plants" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
