Pollination

Answer

  1. Pollination is the process of transfer of pollen grains from the anther to the stigma.
  2. Herkogamy is the condition of flower favouring cross-pollination, in which a structural barrier around the stigma prevents self-pollination.
  3. Cleistogamy is a condition favouring self-pollination, in which the flower remains closed even at maturity, and the anthers and stigma remain hidden close to each other.
  4. Emasculation is the process of removal of anthers from a young flower for ensuring artificial pollination.
  5. The process of fusion or union of the nuclei of male and female gametes is called fertilisation.
