Millet is primarily a cross-pollinated crop, although some varieties can exhibit self-pollination. The cross-pollination occurs through wind, which helps in the transfer of pollen between plants. This characteristic allows for greater genetic diversity, which can be beneficial for adaptation and resilience. However, the degree of cross-pollination can vary among different millet species.

Is sesame a self pollinated or cross pollinated crop?

Sesame is primarily a self-pollinated crop, as it has perfect flowers that contain both male and female reproductive organs. However, some cross-pollination may occur due to wind or insects.


Why hybrids are not successful in self pollinated crops?

In self pollinated crops, hybrid vigour is not just like the cross pollinated crop e.g maize.cross pollination in self pollinated crop produce low seed set and cost of hybrid seed increases.less cytoplasmic male sterility and fertility restorer gene in mostly self pollinated crop.

What happens when most cross-pollinated crops are self-pollinated for several generations?

you'd get a uniform genetic composition for good or bad. you can get a uniform crop or you may get inbreeding problems


Is a sampaguita self-pollinated or cross-pollinated?

Sampaguita is primarily cross-pollinated, where the transfer of pollen occurs between different flowers by insects like bees. In some cases, self-pollination can also occur within the same flower when the pollen is transferred from the anther to the stigma.


Why is corn a cross pollinated crop?

Because when corn self-pollinates over a few generations it becomes an inbred, and loses vigor, size, and overall plant health. So to keep the plants healthy they need to be either hybrids or open-pollinated so that most of the silks get pollinated by a different plant.


Can cilantro be self pollinated?

Cilantro is a self-fertile plant, which means it has the ability to self-pollinate. However, it is primarily wind-pollinated, so cross-pollination can also occur with the help of insects.

List of self pollinated crop plant?

TomatoesPineapplePeanutsGreen PeppersSweet PeasGreen beansChili PeppersEggplantOranges(all legumes, for example old world "broad beans")Many others are wind-pollinated, and almost no crops on earth depend purely on honeybees, most are more efficiently pollinated by some other insect or creature.
