What is geitonogamy?
Advertisements
उत्तर
It is the transfer of pollen grain to the stigma of a different flower produced by the same plant. It is functionally similar to cross-pollination, as it involves pollinating agents, but it cannot bring about genetic variations and is only of ecological significance, e.g., Cucurbita maxima. It is similar to autogamy, as pollen grains come from the same plant.
