What is another word for autogamic?
Pronunciation: [ˌɔːtə͡ʊɡˈamɪk] (IPA) 
Autogamic refers to the process of self-fertilization in plants. Some synonyms for autogamic include self-pollination, self-fertilization, self-fecundation, and selfing. These terms are often used interchangeably to describe the same natural phenomenon where pollen from the same plant is transferred to the ovules of the same plant. Self-pollination or autogamy is common among plants that are hermaphroditic or monoecious, where both male and female reproductive organs are present in the same plant. Autogamy allows for a reliable way of reproduction for plants that may not have the chance to pollinate with other plants or may experience difficulty in attracting pollinators.
