Question:
Which of the following types require pollinator but result is genetically similar to autogamy?
Which of the following types require pollinator but result is genetically similar to autogamy?
Show Hint
Geitonogamy utilizes a pollinator, yet it does not promote genetic diversity as xenogamy does.

- Geitonogamy
- Xenogamy
- Apogamy
- Cleistogamy

Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
Geitonogamy refers to a form of self-pollination that occurs when pollen is transferred from one flower to another on the same individual plant. Although it involves separate flowers, the genetic results are akin to those of autogamy.
