Cytomixis is reported to be a uniform phenomenon in the context of fertilization during
spermatogenesis of animals and in some lower groups of plants where oogamous
reproduction prevails. However, the phenomenon is versatile in flowering taxa as it lacks
uniformity in occurrences, causes, formation of intercellular bridges, involvement of number
of cells in a cluster, evolutionary significance among others. A review on cytomixis is
conducted with an objective that it may offer a scope to unravel some of the ambiguities …
