Note on epihydrophily......
Answers
Epihydrophily :
The pollen grains float on
the water surface and reach the stigma of
female flower. e.g. Vallisneria is a submerged
dioecious, fresh water aquatic plant in which
female flowers reach the water surface
temporarily to ensure pollination and male
flowers float on the surface of water.
• Specific gravity of pollen grain is equal
to that of water. That is why they float on
surface of water.
• Some aquatic plants are anemophilous e.g.
Potamogeton, Halogaris, etc.
• Some aquatic plants are entomophilous e.g.
Lotus, water hyacinth, waterlily, etc.
