Parthenocarpy and Self-Incompatibility in Mandarins [PDF]

Agronomy, 2021
Citrus reproductive biology is complex. One of its characteristic features is parthenocarpy that enables seedless fruit production. Citrus parthenocarpy and self-incompatibility knowledge is only partial and sometimes discrepant.

Histological, transcriptomic, and gene functional analyses reveal the regulatory events underlying gibberellin-induced parthenocarpy in tomato

Horticultural Plant Journal
Gibberellin (GA) is one of the major plant hormones that promote parthenocarpy, a highly valuable agronomic trait. Here, we demonstrated that exogenous GA3 application triggered the formation of parthenocarpic fruits with smaller size but unchanged shape

Male sterility‐induced parthenocarpy arose during tomato domestication

Physiologia Plantarum
Abstract The huge diversity of cultivated tomatoes is the result of a long process of domestication followed by intensive breeding. Breeding efforts have been focused on increasing fruit size and on the diversification of fruit phenotypes.

Genetic and molecular mechanisms underlying the parthenocarpic fruit mutation in tomato [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science
Parthenocarpy allows fruit set independently of fertilization. In parthenocarpic-prone tomato genotypes, fruit set can be achieved under pollen-limiting environmental conditions and in sterile mutants.

Highly efficient CRISPR/Cas9-RNP mediated CaPAD1 editing in protoplasts of three pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) cultivars [PDF]

Plant Signaling & Behavior
Parthenocarpy, characterized by seedless fruit development without pollination or fertilization, offers the advantage of consistent fruit formation, even under challenging conditions such as high temperatures.

Morphological Changes to Fruit Development Induced by GA₃ Application in Sweet Cherry (Prunus avium L.) [PDF]

Plants
Cherry (Prunus avium) fruits are important sources of vitamins, minerals, and nutrients in the human diet; however, they contain a large stone, making them inconvenient to eat ‘on the move’ and process. The exogenous application of gibberellic acid (GA3)

MicroRNA156-SPL13B Module Induces Parthenocarpy Through the Gibberellin Pathway. [PDF]

Plant Biotechnol J
ABSTRACT Fruit development typically follows pollination and fertilisation. However, parthenocarpy, the formation of seedless fruits, represents an alternative pathway. The fruit that grows from the ovary under unpollinated and/or unfertilised conditions is termed parthenocarpic.

Decoding the molecular mechanism of parthenocarpy in Musa spp. through protein–protein interaction network

Scientific Reports, 2021
Banana, one of the most important staple fruit among global consumers is highly sterile owing to natural parthenocarpy. Identification of genetic factors responsible for parthenocarpy would facilitate the conventional breeders to improve the seeded ...

Selection of cucumber for parthenocarpy for spring greenhouses

Овощи России, 2022
Scientific relevance. Currently, in the protected ground, the main areas are occupied by parthenocarpic hybrids of cucumber of foreign origin. Therefore, the selection of domestic cucumber hybrids of the parthenocarpic type is very relevant.Material and ...

Banana breeding by genome design. [PDF]

J Integr Plant Biol
Bananas and plantains likely originated from hybridizations of four wild Musa species. This review highlights advances in banana genomics, genetics, and breeding, emphasizing genome sequencing breakthroughs and genomic‐assisted tools like selection and gene editing, and explores future prospects for improving key agronomic traits.
