(i) In plants bearing bisexual flowers, the anthers are removed from the flower before they dehisce. This is called emasculation. The emasculated flowers are covered with a bag of butter paper to prevent contamination of stigma with unwanted pollen. This process is called bagging. When this stigma attains receptivity, mature pollen grains are dusted on the stigma and the flowers are rebagged to allow the fruits to develop.
(ii) If the female parent produces unisexual flowers, emasculation is not done. The flower buds are bagged before the flowers open. When the stigma becomes receptive, pollen is dusted on stigma and the flower is rebagged.
