In which of the following scenarios, pollination will lead to fertilisation?
Pollen grains of an ash gourd flower falls on the stigma of another ash gourd flower
The process of pollination becomes effective when the male gamete in the pollen fuses with the female gamete in the ovule of the same species. This process is called fertilisation and results in the formation of fruit. Fruit formation takes place only when pollen grains fall on the stigma of flowers of the same species.
In the given situations, pollination becomes effective when pollen grains of pumpkin falls on the stigma of a pumpkin flower or pollen grains of ash gourd falls on the stigma of ash gourd.
