POLLINATION, in botany, the transference of the pollen from the stamen to the receptive surface, or stigma, of the pistil of a flower.

And finally, we find flowers consisting of a single stamen with a bract.

The function of the stamen is the development and distribution of the pollen.

Similarly in the sporophylls of some cycads the bundles are endarch near the base and mesarch near the distal end of the stamen or carpel.

It sometimes happens that a single stamen is longer than all the rest.

A stamen is opposite each sepal, and in the centre of the flower is the rudiment of a pistil.
