Best answer

(i)  Pollen release and stigma receptivity is not synchronised. 

(ii)  Anther and stigma are placed at  different position.

(iii) Self-incompatibility. 

(iv)  Production of unisexual flowers.

 Detailed Answer: 

Three outbreeding devices are : 

(i)  Dichogamy  : Stamens and carpels do not mature at the same time. Therefore stigma is not receptive at the time of pollen release or vice-versa. 

(ii)  Dicliny : The flowers are unisexual. 

(iii)  Herkogamy  : There is a physical barrier present between anther and stigma e.g. in calotropis or the anther and stigma are placed in different positions.
