Pollination is necessary for food grain production and sustaining human life. Absence of adequate pollination results in to reduced crop
yields and higher percentage of inferior fruit set. Rapeseed mustard (Brassica spp.) is widely grown and one of the most important oil seed
crop of India and world. Large number of insects pollinators has reported visits on the bloom of Brassica spp. Present study review the
nature of pollination and role of pollinators in Brassica spp. Result suggests, some Brassica spp. are self-fertile, while many are self-
incompatible and require cross pollination to set seed. Wide variety of insect pollinators has reported to visit Brassica spp., however, honey
bee are most common visitors. In absence of open and bee pollination, the seed yield can be reduced from 11.5% to 44.5%. This yield
reduction might be due to reduction yield attribute characters of the plant.
