Cleistogamy

Vedclass · Answer

(A) The condition where bisexual flowers do not open at all is known as $Cleistogamy$.In $Cleistogamous$ flowers,the anthers and stigma lie very close to each other. When anthers dehisce in the flower buds,pollen grains come in contact with the stigma to effect pollination.Thus,$Cleistogamous$ flowers are invariably $Autogamous$ as there is no chance of cross-pollination. Examples include $Commelina$ $benghalensis$,$Oxalis$,and $Viola$.
