Cleistogamy is the phenomenon in which plants show self pollination.

Explanation:

  • It is defined as auto-pollination where the bisexual flowers do not open and thus the pollen pollinate the stigma of the same flower.
  • It is well known in grass family.
  • In Commelina , the flowers are cleistogamous and thus show cleistogamy.
  • Cleistogamous flowers produce assured seed set as no pollinators are needed.
  • Absence of variation is the biggest disadvantage .
