Parthenocarpy is the development of fruit without fertilisation of ovules. The fruit is therefore seedless.
Definition
Parthenocarpy is the process of producing or developing fruits without the process of pollination and fertilization. There are two types of Parthenocarpy – naturally and artificially. The fruits produced by this process are seedless.
Example
Banana, Cucumber, Grapes, Lemon Tomato, and Watermelon are a few examples of seedless fruits which have been produced by the Parthenocarpy process.
