Histological, transcriptomic, and gene functional analyses reveal the regulatory events underlying gibberellin-induced parthenocarpy in tomato
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 Sockets of parthenocarpic fruits with smaller size but unchanged shape in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum).These fruits exhibited a thicker pericarp, undeveloped
