  While eating watermelons, all of us wish it was seedless. As a plant physiologist can you suggest any method by which this can be achieved.

Answer:

                The process of parthenocarpy produce the seedless fruits. This is a process in which fruits are developed without fertilisation, so, seeds are not formed in the fruit. Artificially parthenocarpy can be induced by spraying auxin and gibberellin to produce seedless watermelons.
