Solution

The correct option is C Triticum
Feathery stigma is an adaptation for anemophilous plants in which flowers are pollinated by means of wind. The inflorescence in such plants is generally pendant for swinging purpose. The feathery stigmas moves due to the wind and catch the wind borne pollen. For example, in grasses (monocotyledonous flowering plants belonging to family Gramineae).
Among all options given in question,Triticum belongs to the family Gramineae. It is a wind pollinated i.e. anemophilous plant. Hence, feathery stigma is present in Triticum.
So, the correct answer is 'Triticum'.
