Correct Option: A

Parthenocarpy is the development of fruits without prior fertilization which results in the formation of seedless fruits. In some plant species, parthenocarpic fruits are produced naturally or they may be induced by treatment of the unpollinated flowers with auxin. Removal of androecium before pollen release is called emasculation which is helpful in preventing unwanted pollination. Vernalized seeds are treated at ion temperature for breaking dormancy. Phenyl Mercuric Acetate is an antitranspirant. Gibberellins and Auxins are known to induce parthenocarpy in plants. If a tomato plant is treated with a low concentration of auxin and gibberellic acid it’ll produce fruits without fertilization i.e. parthenocarpic fruits.
