Abstract

Like wet stigmas, the stigmatic secretions of dry stigmas ofEichhornia also have proteins, sugars, amino acids, phenols and fatty acids. No significant difference could be observed in the composition of stigmatic secretions of long and medium styled flowers except that the components were marginally higher in concentration in the former than the latter. The UV absorption profiles of the stigmatic secretions also showed no difference. Stigma surface esterases could be detected in both the stigmas from a very early stage of development.
