Pollen germination and pollen tube growth are regulated by chemical componrnts of pollen interacting with those of the pistil.

Some reptiles have also been reported as pollinators in some plant species.

Insects that consume pollen or nectar without bringing about pollination are called pollen/ nectar robbers.
