उत्तर

Calcium is found in small amounts in pollen and promotes what is termed the 'population effect' on pollen tube growth. This refers to how calcium facilitates inter-cellular signalling and coordination among pollen tubes, enhancing growth efficiency when multiple pollen tubes are present. Calcium is essential for proper tube elongation and development.
