NEET Biology question
Statement 1: Self-incompatibility is a genetic mechanism which prevents self-pollination by inhibiting either pollen germination or pollen tube growth in the pistil.

Answer: (C)
Solution
Self-incompatibility genuinely prevents self-fertilization by blocking pollen germination or tube growth in the pistil (assertion true); however, in gametophytic self-incompatibility the reaction is determined by
