Text SolutionText solutionverified iconVerified

Watermelon, lemon, orange should be selected to induce parthenocarpy because the seedless variety of these fruits would be much appreciated by the consumers.
Parthenocarpy is the process of developing fruits without involving the process of fertilization or seed formation. Therefore, the seedless varieties of economically important fruits such as orange, lemon, watermelon etc. are produced using this technique. This technique involves inducing fruit formation by the application of plant growth hormones such as auxins.
