different parts of northern India. Due to rapid urbanization, habitat destruction and it’s overharvesting the biodiversity of Ipomoea
obscura (L.) Ker Gawl is being destroyedand is on the verge of extinction. Efforts are required to protect and conserved species
and ecosystem with its sustainable management; this needed a detailed understanding of the reproductive biology of the species to
be conserved. Ipomoea obscura is an annual or perennial twining climber flowering more or less throughout the year while
flowering becomes increasingly abundant from September to October. Opening of flowers in progress with day light between
05.30-06.30 h and the anther dehiscence was noted between 06.00 to 07.00 h. Foragers include Lasius niger, Apis florae, Musca
domestica, Apis melifera, Camponotus sp. and unidentified beetle were observed as a regular visitor. This species shows
facultative xenogamous type of breeding system. In present investigation it is found that there is a strong correlation between
floral size, pollen: ovule ratio, stigma receptivity, anther-stigma distance and breeding system in studied I. obscura (L.) Ker Gawl
species.
Keywords : Ipomoea obscura (L.) Ker Gawl, floral biology, pollination, breeding system.
