Q 1 :    

Seed formation without fertilisation in flowering plants involves the process of                 [2016]

  • somatic hybridisation

     

  • apomixis

     

  • sporulation

     

  • budding

     

(2)

Apomixis is a reproductive process which does not involve gametic fusion. In apomictic flowering plants there is no fertilisation and embryos develop simply by division of a cell of ovule.
