Question

what is the difference between self pollination and cross pollination ​

Answer 1

Answer:

→ The transfer of pollen grains from the anther to the stigma is called pollination.

It is of two types :

Self pollination : The transfer poem grains from the anther of flower to the stigma of same flower or of another flower born on same plant is called self pollination.

Cross pollination : The transfer of pollen grains from one plant to the stigma of flower of another plant is called cross pollination.

Answer 2

The process of transfers of pollen grains from anthers to the stigma of a flower, but when this process is between the flowers of the same plant than the term is called as self-pollination, while when the transfers are between the flowers of the different plant of same species is called as cross-pollination. Secondly, pure line progeny is obtained in the self-pollination.


The target of every living organisms is to create their young ones and transfer their characters to them. Pollination is also the same process occurring in plants, where the reproduction and fertilization are processed in the flowers, which further produce seeds. When pollens gets transferred between the flowers, seeds are produced which contains the genetic information of a plant and is capable of producing offspring.

In general sense, we say that in pollination the pollen grains are then transferred from the anther of a flower to the stigma. If we observe the flower of any plant, like China rose, we will see different parts like sepals, petals, stigma, style, anther, filaments, stamens, pistil, pedicel, thalamus, ovary and ovules. Anther and filaments are said as the male reproductive parts of a flower, while pistil which has the stigma, style and ovary are mentioned as the female reproductive parts of a flower.

The term pollination gains its attraction when Gregor Mendel successfully cross-pollinated the garden-peas. There are the different method of pollination which depends on the type of plants like in angiosperms it takes place between the flowers of the same plants (self-pollination), while in gymnosperms it occurs between two different plants with same or different species (cross-pollination).

In this content, we will be studying the two primary type of pollination and the ground points on which they can be distinguished.
