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.
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.
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.
he used plants that were NOT true breeding!

Flowers that self-pollinate often have mechanisms to ensure the transfer of pollen within the same flower or between flowers on the same plant, such as closed or self-contained petals. Flowers that rely on cross-pollination often have adaptations to attract pollinators, such as bright colors, strong scents, or nectar rewards, and may have specific structures to facilitate pollen transfer by insects or other animals.

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

The two kinds of pollination are1. self-pollination2. cross-pollination.note - the Q may have been after insect pollinated, and wind pollinated.

they are self-pollinated!!
