'Fertilisation is not an obligatory event for fruit production in certain plants". Explain the statement.

Explanation

Production of fruits without fertilisation of ovules is called parthenocarpy. It is common in Banana, grapes, Cucurbita, pollination or other stimulation is required for parthenocarpy called stimulative is required for parthenocarpy called stimulative parthenocarpy. Plants that do not require pollution or simulation to produce parthenocarpic fruits have vegetative parthenocarpy. Seedless cucumbers, watermelons. Panthenocarp is also desirable in fruit crops that may be difficult to pollinate or fertilize, such as tomato and summer squash. If plant harmones, gibberellin, auxin and cytokinins are sprayed on flowers, they induce parthenocarpy called artifical parthenocarpy. It is also induced by natural agents like low light cool conditions, to produce seedless fruits. Parthenocarpic fruits are advantageous because they are bigger in size, flavour is more :
1) Easier to eat with less waste.
2) Shelf like longer due to reduced ethylene generated by seeds.
3) Seedless fruits have higher total soluble contents so fertilization is not an obligatory event in fruit production.
