Question

Seedlessness in most of the grape variety is due to:

A.

Vegetative parthenocarpy

B.

Stimulative parthenocarpy

C.

Stenospermocarpy

D.

None of these

Correct option is C

The correct answer is Stenospermocarpy.

  • Seedlessness in grapes is primarily due to stenospermocarpy.
  • In this process, pollination and fertilization occur normally, and seeds begin to form, but the embryo aborts at an early stage.
  • Despite embryo abortion, the berries continue to develop and usually contain only rudimentary seeds, as seen in ‘Thompson Seedless’ grapes.
  • The exact mechanism of stenospermocarpic seedlessness has not been fully understood until now.
