TION
All living
organisms have
one major goal
in common,
which is to
pass along
their genetic
information to
the next
generation by
creating
offspring.
Flowering
plants create
seeds, which
carry the
genetic
information of
the parents and
develop into a
new plant.
There are two
critical stages in
the life cycle of
a flowering
plant:
1) The transfer
of pollen from
anther to
stigma. As we
will saw
in the lecture on
"Breeding
Systems", most
flowering plants
have
different types
of mechanisms
to promote the
transfer of
pollen from
an anther in
one flower to
a stigma in a
different flower,
and
hopefully this
flower will be on
a different
plant. 2) The
dispersal
of seeds away
from the parent
plant. Plants
often solicit the
aid of
animals, as well
as abiotic forces
such as wind, to
accomplish both
of these. Much
of the flower
diversity that
you have
observed thus
far this
semester is
because of
adaptations for
pollination by
different
mechanisms. In
this lecture, we
will discuss the
main types of
pollination
mechanisms.
However,
please keep in
mind that
there
are always
exceptions;
plants and
animals that
visit flowers
have
minds of their
own! The vast
majority of
flowering plant
species
are pollinated
by insects; in
fact, it seems
that flowering
plants and
many major
groups of
insects co-
evolved
together.
Animals other
than insects can
also be
important
pollinators:
bats, birds
(especially
hummingbirds),
and even a few
mammals.

INTRODUCTION
Pollination is the process by which pollen is transferred to the female reproductive
organs of a plant, thereby enabling fertilization to take place. Like all living organisms,
seed plants have a single major purpose: to pass their genetic information on to the next
generation. The reproductive unit is the seed, and pollination is an essential step in the
production of seeds in all spermatophytes (seed plants). For the process of pollination
to be successful, a pollen grain produced by the anther, the male part of a flower, must
be transferred to a stigma, the female part of the flower, of a plant of the same species.
The process is rather different in angiosperms (flowering plants) from what it is in
gymnosperms (other seed plants). In angiosperms, after the pollen grain has landed on
the stigma, it creates a pollen tube which grows down the style until it reaches the ovary.
Sperm cells from the pollen grain then move along the pollen tube, enter the egg cell
through the micropyle and fertilise it, resulting in the production of a seed.

A successful angiosperm pollen grain (gametophyte) containing the male gametes is

transported to the stigma, where it germinates and its pollen tube grows down the style
to the ovary. Its two gametes travel down the tube to where the gametophyte (s)
containing the female gametes are held within the carpel. One nucleus fuse with the
polar bodies to produce the endosperm tissues, and the other with the ovule to produce
the embryo Hence the term: “double fertilization“.

In gymnosperms, the ovule is not contained in a carpel, but exposed on the surface of
a dedicated support organ, such as the scale of a cone, so that the penetration of carpel
tissue is unnecessary. Details of the process vary according to the division of
gymnosperms in question. Two main modes of fertilization are found in gymnosperms.
Cycads and Ginkgo have motile sperm that swim directly to the egg inside the ovule,
whereas conifers and gnetophytes have sperm that are unable to swim but are
conveyed to the egg along a pollen tube.

The study of pollination brings together many disciplines, such as botany, horticulture,
entomology, and ecology. The pollination process as an interaction between flower and
pollen vector was first addressed in the 18th century by Christian Konrad Sprengel. It is
important in horticulture and agriculture, because fruiting is dependent on fertilization:
the result of pollination. The study of pollination by insects is known as anthecology.
Process of Pollination
Pollen germination has three stages; hydration, activation and pollen tube emergence.
The pollen grain is severely dehydrated so that its mass is reduced enabling it to be
more easily transported from flower to flower. Germination only takes place after
rehydration, ensuring that premature germination does not take place in the anther.
Hydration allows the plasma membrane of the pollen grain to reform into its normal
bilayer organization providing an effective osmotic membrane. Activation involves the
development of actin filaments throughout the cytoplasm of the cell, which eventually
become concentrated at the point from which the pollen tube will emerge. Hydration and
activation continue as the pollen tube begins to grow.

In conifers, the reproductive structures are borne on cones. The cones are either pollen
cones (male) or ovulate cones (female), but some species are monoecious and others
dioecious. A pollen cone contains hundreds of microsporangia carried on (or borne on)
reproductive structures called sporophylls. Spore mother cells in the microsporangia
divide by meiosis to form haploid microspores that develop further by two mitotic
divisions into immature male gametophytes (pollen grains). The four resulting cells
consist of a large tube cell that forms the pollen tube, a generative cell that will produce
two sperm by mitosis, and two prothallial cells that degenerate. These cells comprise a
very reduced microgametophyte, that is contained within the resistant wall of the pollen
grain.

The pollen grains are dispersed by the wind to the female, ovulate cone that is made up
of many overlapping scales (sporophylls, and thus mega sporophylls), each protecting
two ovules, each of which consists of a megasporangium (the nucellus) wrapped in two
layers of tissue, the integument and the cupule, that were derived from highly modified
branches of ancestral gymnosperms. When a pollen grain lands close enough to the tip
of an ovule, it is drawn in through the micropyle (a pore in the integuments covering the
tip of the ovule) often by means of a drop of liquid known as a pollination drop.

The pollen enters a pollen chamber close to the nucellus, and there it may wait for a
year before it germinates and forms a pollen tube that grows through the wall of the
megasporangium (nucellus) where fertilisation takes place. During this time, the
megaspore mother cell divides by meiosis to form four haploid cells, three of which
degenerate. The surviving one develops as a megaspore and divides repeatedly to form
an immature female gametophyte (egg sac). Two or three archegonia containing an egg
then develop inside the gametophyte. Meanwhile, in the spring of the second year two
sperm cells are produced by mitosis of the body cell of the male gametophyte. The
pollen tube elongates and pierces and grows through the megasporangium wall and
delivers the sperm cells to the female gametophyte inside. Fertilisation takes place when
the nucleus of one of the sperm cells enters the egg cell in the megagametophyte’s
archegonium.

In flowering plants, the anthers of the flower produce microspores by meiosis. These
undergo mitosis to form male gametophytes, each of which contains two haploid cells.
Meanwhile, the ovules produce megaspores by meiosis, further division of these form
the female gametophytes, which are very strongly reduced, each consisting only of a few
cells, one of which is the egg. When a pollen grain adheres to the stigma of a carpel it
germinates, developing a pollen tube that grows through the tissues of the style, entering
the ovule through the micropyle. When the tube reaches the egg sac, two sperm cells
pass through it into the female gametophyte and fertilisation takes place.
Fertilization
Fertilization in plants is the pivotal event in sexual reproduction, a process that ensures
the continuation of plant species. It involves the fusion of male and female reproductive
cells to create a genetically unique offspring. In flowering plants, which comprise the
majority of plant species, fertilization occurs within the structure of the flower. The male
gametes, contained within pollen grains produced by the anthers, must reach the female
gametes, housed within ovules located in the ovary of the flower. Pollination facilitates
this transfer, which can be achieved through various agents like wind, insects, birds, or
other animals. Once a pollen grain lands on the stigma of a flower, it may germinate,
forming a pollen tube that grows down through the style toward the ovary. Within the
ovule, one sperm cell fuses with the egg cell, forming a zygote, while another sperm cell
fuses with two other nuclei to form the endosperm. The zygote develops into the
embryo, and the ovule matures into a seed containing the embryo and endosperm. The
ovary, in turn, develops into a fruit, protecting the seeds and aiding in their dispersal.
Upon favourable conditions, the seed germinates, initiating the growth of a new plant.
Fertilization ensures genetic variation by combining genetic material from two different
parent plants, contributing to the resilience and adaptability of plant populations.

Types of Pollination
Depending on the source of pollen, pollination can be classified into 2 types –

Self-pollination and Cross Pollination (Xenogamy)

Self-Pollination is further divided into Autogamy and Geitonogamy.

Depending on agent of Pollination, pollination can be classified into abiotic pollination

and biotic pollination.

 Self Pollination is the type of Pollination in which pollen grains are transferred
from anther to the stigma of the same flower (Autogamy) or pollen grains are
transferred from anther to the stigma of different flower of the same plant
(Geitonogamy).
 Cross Pollination or Xenogamy is the type of pollination in which pollen grains
are transferred from anther to the stigma of a different plant.
# On the basis of Polling agent:
Abiotic pollination refers to situations where pollination is mediated without the
involvement of other organisms. The most common form of abiotic pollination,
anemophily, is pollination by wind. Wind pollination is very imprecise, with a minute
proportion of pollen grains landing by chance on a suitable receptive stigma, the rest
being wasted in the environment. This form of pollination is used by grasses, most
conifers, and many deciduous trees. Hydrophily is pollination by water, and occurs in
aquatic plants which release their pollen directly into the surrounding water. About 80%
of all plant pollination is biotic. In gymnosperms, biotic pollination is generally incidental
when it occurs, though some gymnosperms and their pollinators are mutually adapted
for pollination. The best-known examples probably are members of the order Cycadales
and associated species of beetles.

Of the abiotically pollinated species of plant, 98% are anemophilous and 2%

hydrophilous, their pollen being transported by water. It is thought that among
angiosperms, entomophily is the primitive state; this is indicated by the vestigial
nectaries in the wind-pollinated Urtica and other plants, and

 the presence of fragrances in some of these plants. Of the angiosperms, grasses,

sedges, rushes and catkin-bearing plants are in general wind pollinated. Other
flowering plants are mostly biotic, the pollen being carried by animal vectors.
However, a number of plants in multiple families have secondarily adopted wind
pollination in contrast to other members of their groups. Some plants are
intermediate between the two pollination methods. common heather is regularly
pollinated by insects, but produce clouds of pollen and some wind pollination is
inevitable, and the hoary plantain is primarily wind pollinated, but is also visited
by insects which pollinate it.

 Biotic: More commonly, the process of pollination requires pollinators: organisms

that carry or move the pollen grains from the anther of one flower to the receptive
part of the carpel or pistil (stigma) of another. This is biotic pollination. The
various flower traits (and combinations thereof) that differentially attract one type
of pollinator or another are known as pollination syndromes. At least 100,000
species of animal, and possibly as many as 200,000, act as pollinators of the
estimated 250,000 species of flowering plants in the world. The majority of these
pollinators are insects, but about 1,500 species of birds and mammals have been
reported to visit flowers and may transfer pollen between them. Besides birds and
bats which are the most frequent visitors, these include monkeys, lemurs,
squirrels, rodents and possums. Entomophily, pollination by insects, often occurs
on plants that have developed coloured petals and a strong scent to attract
insects such as, bees, wasps and occasionally ants (Hymenoptera), beetles
(Coleoptera), moths and butterflies (Lepidoptera), and flies (Diptera).

The existence of insect pollination dates back to the dinosaur era. In zoophily,
pollination is performed by vertebrates such as birds and bats, particularly,
hummingbirds, sunbirds, spiderhunters, honeyeaters, and fruit bats. Ornithophily
or bird pollination is the pollination of flowering plants by birds. Chiropterophily or
bat pollination is the pollination of flowering plants by bats. Plants adapted to use
bats or moths as pollinators typically have white petals, strong scent and flower at
night, whereas plants that use birds as pollinators tend to produce copious nectar
and have red petals. Insect pollinators such as honey bees (Apismellifera),
 bumblebees (Bombusterrestris), and butterflies (Thymelicusflavus) have been
observed to engage in flower constancy, which means they are more likely to
transfer pollen to other conspecific plants. This can be beneficial for the
pollinators, as flower constancy prevents the loss of pollen during interspecific
flights and pollinators from clogging stigmas with pollen of other flower species. It
also improves the probability that the pollinator will find productive flowers easily
accessible and recognisable by familiar clues.
Mechanism of Pollination
Pollination can be accomplished by cross-pollination or by self-pollination. Cross-
pollination, also called allogamy, occurs when pollen is delivered from the stamen of one
flower to the stigma of a flower on another plant of the same species. Plants adapted for
cross-pollination have several mechanisms to prevent self-pollination; the reproductive
organs may be arranged in such a way that self-fertilisation is unlikely, or the stamens
and carpels may mature at different times Modes of Cross Pollination:

The agencies which transfer pollen grains from anthers of one flower to the stigma of a
different flowers are as follows: WIND (Anemophily), WATER (Hydrophily), INSECTS
(Entomophily), BIRDS (Ornithophily) and BATS (Cheiropterophily).

 Anemophily:
Anemophilous plants produce enormous amount of pollen grains: A single plant of
Mercurialis annually has been estimated to produce 1,352,000,000 pollen grains.
Anemophilous plants bear small and inconspicuous flower. The pollen grains are small,
light, smooth and dry. Pollen of some plants are said to be blown to 1,300 km. In some
plants as Pinus, pollen grains are winged.

The flowers are usually unisexual in some plants e.g. Mulberry is borne in independent
catkins which can sway freely and shake off their pollen in air. The flowers may be borne
on long axis (as in grasses) much above the leaves.

The anther is versatile so as to oscillate in all directions at the tip of filament. In

Urticaceae filaments are very long. Anempohilous flowers have adequate devices to
catch the air-borne-pollen grains with utmost efficiency. For this the stigma is usually
large and feathery (as in grasses) and brush like as in Typha.

 Hydrophily:
It is of two types:

 Hypohydrogamy: Includes plants which are pollinated inside the water, e.g.
Ceratophyllum, Najas.

 Epihydrogamy:
Vallisneriaspiralis (ribbon weed) is a submerged dioecious plant. The flowers are borne
under water. When mature, the male flower gets detached from the parent plant and
float on the surface of water. The pistillate flowers also develop under water, at the time
of pollination, they are brought to the surface by their long and slender stalks. As it
arrives on the surface it forms a cuplike depression. If male flowers floating on water get
lodged into the depression, the pollination takes place. After pollination, the stalk of the
pistillate flower undergoe spiral torsion bringing the pollinated flower under water once
more.

 Entomophily:
Some of the insects which help in pollination are bees, flies, wasps, moths and beetles.
Bees, flies and beetles visit flowers which open after sunset. Bees probably carry out
80% of all pollination done by insects. Bee pollinated flowers are coloured, possess
special smell and/or produce nectar. Pollen grains are sticky or with spinousexine. Also,
the stigma is sticky and bees are colour blind for red.

 Ornithophily:
Tiny birds like humming birds and honey thrushes (hardly 1 inch long) feeds on the
nectar of flower like Bignonia, Erythrina is visited by crows.

 Chiropteriphily:
Bauhinia megalandra of Java and Anthocephalus are pollinated by bats.

 Malcophily:
Many aroids which are usually pollinated by Diptera are also pollinated by snails.

 Self-pollination occurs when pollen from one flower pollinates the same flower or
other flowers of the same individual. It is thought to have evolved under
conditions when pollinators were not reliable vectors for pollen transport, and is
most often seen in short-lived annual species and plants that colonize new
locations. Self-pollination may include autogamy, where pollen is transferred to
the female part of the same flower; or geitonogamy, when pollen is transferred to
another flower on the same plant. Plants adapted to self-fertilize often have
similar stamen and carpel lengths. Plants that can pollinate themselves and
produce viable offspring are called self-fertile. Plants that cannot fertilize
themselves are called self-sterile, a condition which mandates cross-pollination
for the production of offspring.

 Cleistogamy is self-pollination that occurs before the flower opens. The pollen is
released from the anther within the flower or the pollen on the anther grows a
tube down the style to the ovules. It is a type of sexual breeding, in contrast to
asexual systems such as apomixis. Some cleistogamous flowers never open, in
contrast to chasmogamous flowers that open and are then pollinated.
Cleistogamous flowers are by necessity found on self-compatible or self-fertile
plants. Although certain orchids and grasses are entirely cleistogamous, other
plants resort to this strategy under adverse conditions. Often there may be a
 mixture of both cleistogamous and chasmogamous flowers, sometimes on
different parts of the plant and sometimes in mixed inflorescences. The ground
bean produces cleistogamous flowers below ground, and mixed cleistogamous
and chasmogamous flowers above.

Pollen Vector
Biotic pollen vectors are animals, usually insects, but also reptiles, birds, mammals, and
sundry others, that routinely transport pollen and play a role in pollination. This is usually
as a result of their activities when visiting plants for feeding, breeding or shelter. The
pollen adheres to the vector’s body parts such as face, legs, mouthparts, hair, feathers,
and moist spots; depending on the particular vector. Such transport is vital to the
pollination of many plant species.

Any kind of animal that often visits or encounters flowers is likely to be a pollen vector to
some extent. For example, a crab spider that stops at one flower for a time and then
moves on, might carry pollen incidentally, but most pollen vectors of significant interest
are those that routinely visit the flowers for some functional activity. They might feed on
pollen, or plant organs, or on plant secretions such as nectar, and carry out acts of
pollination on the way. Many plants bear flowers that favour certain types of pollinator
over all others. This need not always be an effective strategy, because some flowers
that are of such a shape that they favor pollinators that pass by their anthers and
stigmata on the way to the nectar, may get robbed by ants that are small enough to
bypass the normal channels, or by short-tongued bees that bite through the bases of
deep corolla tubes to extract nectar at the end opposite to the anthers and stigma.

Some pollinator species can show huge variation in pollination effectiveness because
their ability to carry pollen is impacted by some morphological trait. This is the case in
the white-lined sphinx moth, in which short-tongued morphs collect pollen on their heads
but long-tongued morphs do not carry any pollen. Some flowers have specialized
mechanisms to trap pollinators to increase effectiveness. Other flowers will attract
pollinators by odor. For example, bee species such as Euglossacordata are attracted to
orchids this way, and it has been suggested that the bees will become intoxicated during
these visits to the orchid flowers, which last up to 90 minutes. However, in general,
plants that rely on pollen vectors tend to be adapted to their particular type of vector, for
example day-pollinated species tend to be brightly coloured, but if they are pollinated
largely by birds or specialist mammals, they tend to be larger and have larger nectar
rewards than species that are strictly insect-pollinated. They also tend to spread their
rewards over longer periods, having long flowering seasons; their specialist pollinators
would be likely to starve if the pollination season were too short.

Advantage and Disadvantage of Self pollination

Advantages

1. In self- pollination, there is no diversityin the genes and therefore the purity of the
race is maintained.

2. The plants do not depend on external factors for pollination and even
smaller quantitiesof pollen grains produce have a good success rate in getting
pollinated.

3. Self- pollination ensures that recessive characters are eliminated.

Disadvantages

1. Since there is no mixing up of genes, there are no new characters or features

that are introduced into the lineage of the offsprings.

2. Self- pollination is said to reduce the vigor and vitality of the race as there are no
new features introduced.

3. Without new characters introduced, the resultant offsprings’ immunityto diseases

Advantage and Disadvantage of Cross pollination
Advantages

1. Cross-pollination is beneficial to the race of the plant as it introduces new genes

into the lineage as a result of the fertilization between genetically different
gametes.

2. Cross-pollination improves the resistance of the offsprings to diseases and

changes in the environment.

3. The seeds produced as a result of cross-pollination are good in vigor and vitality.

4. If there are any recessive characters in the lineage, they are eliminated as a
result of genetic recombination.

5. It is the only way unisexual plants can reproduce.

Disadvantages

1. There is a high wastage of pollen grains that need to be produced to ensure

fertilization occurs.
2. There are high chances that the good qualities may get eliminated and unwanted
characteristics may get added due to recombination of the genes.
Conclusion
In conclusion, the study of pollination encompasses a vast array of processes,
mechanisms, and interactions that are essential for the reproduction and continuation of
plant species. From the intricate steps of pollen germination and tube emergence to the
pivotal event of fertilization, each stage plays a critical role in ensuring the genetic
diversity and survival of plants. The types of pollination, whether self or cross, and the
agents involved, whether abiotic like wind or biotic like insects, contribute to the rich
tapestry of plant reproduction strategies.
The mechanisms of pollination, whether through wind, water, insects, birds, or bats,
showcase the intricate adaptations that plants have evolved to ensure successful
reproduction. These adaptations include flower morphology, color, scent, and nectar
production, all of which serve to attract specific pollinators and optimize the transfer of
pollen.

Moreover, the advantages and disadvantages of self-pollination and cross-pollination

highlight the importance of genetic diversity in plant populations. While self-pollination
ensures reproductive success under certain conditions, it can lead to a lack of genetic
variation and decreased resilience in offspring. On the other hand, cross-pollination
introduces new genes, enhances disease resistance, and promotes the vigor and vitality
of plant populations.

Overall, the study of pollination is not only a fascinating exploration of biological

processes but also holds significant implications for agriculture, horticulture, and
ecosystem health. Understanding the mechanisms and dynamics of pollination is crucial
for the conservation of plant biodiversity and the sustainability of ecosystems worldwide.
