➡ Apomixis is a form of asexual reproduction that mimics sexual reproduction....
➡In some species the diploid egg cell is formed without meiosis (reduction division ) and develops into embryo without fertilization.....
➡It is an assured reproduction in the absence of pollinators, such as in extreme environments...
Significance of Apomixis :
▶ The desirable characters are not segregated as the seeds are produced without reduction division and fertilization....
▶ Superior and desirable characters can be maintained for many generations.....
