Question

Explain how geitnogamy is functinally similar to cross ppllination and genetically similar to self pollination ?

Answer 1

Answer:

Geitonogamy − It is the transfer of pollens from the anther of one flower to the stigma of another flower in the same plant. Genetically, it is similar to autogamy, but it requires pollinating agents. Xenogamy − It is the transfer of pollen grains from the anther to the stigma of a different plant.

Explanation:

Although geitonogamy is functionally cross-pollination involving a pollinating agent, genetically it is similar to autogamy since the pollen grains come from the same plant. Monoecious plants like maize show geitonogamy.
