Question
Which one of the following may require pollinators, but is genetically similar to autogamy?
Options:
A .  Dichogamy
B .  Herkogamy
C .  Geitonogamy
D .  Xenogamy
Answer: Option C
:
C
Geitonogamy involves transfer of the pollen from one flower of a plant to the stigma of another flower of the same plant. As the pollen has to move from one flower to another flower, it requires a pollinating agent. Yet it is genetically similar to autogamy, as both the flowers of the plant, share the same genotype of the plant.
