Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsB
Xenogamy: Transfer of pollen between flowers of two different plants. It is the only type that ensures genetically different pollen reaches the stigma.
Geitonogamy: Transfer between flowers of the same plant; it is genetically equivalent to self-pollination.
Cleistogamy: Pollination in flowers that never open (obligate self-pollination).
Autogamy: Pollination within the same flower.
