Question

Comment upon the mode of pollination in Zostera.

Answer 1

Zostera (Sea grass):

1. Zostera is a marine blooming plant that pollinates hydrophilically, but in a unique way.
2. It exhibits genuine hydrophilia, which means that pollination takes place below the water's surface.
3. Pollen grains are discharged under water and are long, ribbon-like, and capable of floating to the stigma of submerged female flowers.
