Question
Explain the steps that ensure cross pollination in an autogamous flower.
✓

Answer

A bisexual flower is emasculated at unopened stage to prevent self-pollination in the flower and it is bagged after emasculation to prevent contact of unwanted pollen grain with the stigma of the flower. Artificial pollination is then performed when the stigma is ready and the flower is rebagged.
