About this document
Chemotropism by ritwikraj1729 is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Chemotropism is the growth or movement of a plant part in response to a chemical stimulus, exemplified by the growth of a pollen tube towards an ovule. This process involves the secretion of a sugary substance by the stigma, which acts as a chemical stimulus for the pollen grain, leading to successful fertilization. Chemotropism plays a crucial role in plant reproduction by ensuring that male gametes reach the ovule.
