Answer

  1. Winkler

Explanation:

Apomixis term was given by Winkler (1908).

Apomixis in a plant means the development of new plant without fusion of gametes.

Although seeds, in general, are the products of fertilization, a few flowering plants such as Asteraceae and grasses, have evolved this special mechanism.

Apomixis is a form of asexual reproduction that mimics sexual reproduction.
