Solution

The correct option is A Cytokinins
Parthenocarpy is the natural or artificially induced production of fruit without fertilization of ovules, which makes the fruit seedless. Cytokinin is more effective in inducing parthenocarpy because cytokinin induced fruit showed enhanced accumulation of gibberellins and auxins which are also responsible for inducing parthenocarpy.
So, the correct answer is 'Cytokinins'.
