Wind pollination or anemophily is a type of pollination wherein pollen is transferred by the wind. The majority of plants under the order Poales are anemophilous, rice, wheat, rye, corn, and barley are all wind-pollinated, even gymnosperms. Some of the common anemophilous plants are sweet chestnuts, Oaks, pecans, alders, and members of the Juglandaceae family.
