how are seedless grapes formed? In an angiosperm the ovary becomes the fruit and the ovule becomes the seed after the seed fertilises, so where is the ovule in seedless grapes?

Solution
In seedless grapes, the seeds were genetically altered to cause smaller or no seeds at all.
It is a genetically changed or mutated grapes.
For this, instead of growing the grapes from seeds, they're grown from cuttings taken from existing plants.
Seedless grapes actually do contain seeds at some point. But a genetic error prevents the seeds from forming hard outer coats like normal seeds do.
