wind-pollinated

Conifers, most riparian trees (such as willows and sycamores), oaks, and grasses are all wind-pollinated.

Pollination ecology of desert plants 2009

Where the distributions of two wind-pollinated tree species of the same genus (e.g., spruce, pine, larches) approach each other or overlap, the trees can interbreed and form hybrid offspring.

Climate change and insects as a forest disturbance in the Arctic 2009

If the degree of genetic variation can be used as an indication of resilience of populations to change, it is likely that this resilience will be greatest among plants in old populations of widely distributed, wind-pollinated vascular species (e.g., rhizomatous Carex populations in eastern Siberia).

Genetic responses of arctic species to changes in climate and ultraviolet-B radiation levels 2009

In general, populations of insector self-pollinated plant species have lower genetic variation than populations of wind-pollinated species [10], and this seems to apply to arctic plants as well.

Genetic responses of arctic species to changes in climate and ultraviolet-B radiation levels 2009

Scandinavian populations of the widely distributed moss Hylocomium splendens, including two subarctic alpine populations, showed high genetic variation within populations and low GST, a pattern similar to widely distributed, wind-pollinated vascular species [27].

Genetic responses of arctic species to changes in climate and ultraviolet-B radiation levels 2009

Beets are wind-pollinated, which means that plants from one field routinely pollinate beets in other fields up to several miles away.

Andrew Kimbrell: Mother's Day Candy from Monsanto Not So Sweet 2008

Because these crops are wind-pollinated, cases of genetic contamination are commonplace.

They Call It "Pharming" And It's Phrightening! 2008

In areas with wet soils and near streams Cyperaceae and Juncaceae dominate, with some genera forming dense and hard wind-pollinated cushions such as Oxychloe and Patosia together with beautiful large-flowered forbs such as Mimulus, Euphrasia and Senecio species.

Southern Andean steppe 2007

Early gymnosperms and angiosperms were wind-pollinated.

False Fear? - The Panda's Thumb 2006

One thing about the pollen trees, these wind-pollinated trees, they tend to be more prevalent in cities.
