Which one of the given pollination technique/adaptation is different than others?
Herkogamy
Geitonogamy
Dichogamy
Heterostyly
B.
Geitonogamy
Geitonogamy is a technique of self-pollination, in which pollen of one flower is deposited on the stigma of another flower of the same plant. While others are mechanisms adopted by bisexual flowers to avoid self-pollination and promote Cross-pollination.
• Dichogamy The condition where the maturing time of anther and stigma is different. Anther matures first, i.e.protandry, stigma matures first, i.e. protogyny.
• Herkogamy Includes mechanical barrier in flower to ensure cross-pollination.
• Heterostyle The height of stigma and Anther is different to avoid self-pollination.
