A Seedless fruit: less is better in quality
Author : Sajana S, Jagadeesha Mulagund and Prashanth Kalal
Seed formation and development of fruit are closely related mechanisms governed by internal signals and environmental conditions. Consumers and producers usually desire seedlessness because it improves fruit quality and shelf-life. Seedless fruits can be produced by developing plants which will be able to show fruiting without pollination and subsequent fertilization. Hormones produced by plants regulate development of fruits. Studies in the recent years have enormously contributed to demonstrate the role of plant hormones in controlling initiation of fruits and simultaneously developing genetic methods for incorporating seedlessness in horticultural crops.
