Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Parthenocarpy is a process of developing fruits without involving fertilisation/seed formation. Therefore, the seedless varieties of economically important fruits like orange, banana, watermelon, lemon, etc. are produced using this technique. This technique involves inducing formation by the application of plant growth hormones such as auxins.
