Solution(By Examveda Team)
Percent of outcrossing in autogamous crops is < 5%.Autogamous plants are such plants in which pollination of a flower occurs by its own pollen.
Outcrossing, also known as allogamy or xenogamy, is the transfer of gametes from one individual to another, genetically different individual. Thus, percentage of outcrossing is very less in case of autogamous plants.
