Abstract: Parthenocarpy is a valuable trait in self-incompatible plants, such as pear. N-(2-chloro-4-pyridyl)-N'-phenylurea (CPPU), a synthetic cytokinin analog, can induce parthenocarpy in pear (Pyrus spp.), but the mechanism of induction is unclear. To investigate the role… read more here.

Abstract: Parthenocarpy, the productions of seedless fruit without pollination or fertilization, is a potentially desirable trait in many commercially grown fruits, especially in pear, which is self-incompatible. Phytohormones play important roles in fruit set, a process… read more here.
