Fruit development is the process by which flowers transform into fruits after fertilization. This begins when pollen from the male part of a flower reaches the female part, leading to the formation of seeds. The ovary of the flower then swells and matures into a fruit, which serves to protect the seeds and aid in their dispersal. During fruit development, various factors such as temperature, water availability, and nutrient supply play crucial roles in determining the size, shape, and flavor of the fruit. Different types of fruits, such as berries, drupes, and pomes, develop in unique ways, influenced by the specific plant species and environmental conditions.
