What is Pomology?
The branch of horticulture dealing with the science and practice of fruit crop production, improvement, harvesting, and utilization is called Pomology.
What is a Fruit?
A mature or ripened ovary (with or without accessory tissues) developed after fertilization is called Fruit.
What is a true fruit?
True fruit is a Fruit developed solely from the ovary (e.g., mango).
What is a False Fruit?
False (accessory) fruit is a Fruit in which tissues other than the ovary contribute significantly (e.g., apple).
Pome is a fleshy accessory fruit where the edible portion is derived mainly from the thalamus (e.g., apple, pear).
What is a drupe?
A drupe is a fleshy fruit with a single seed enclosed in a hard endocarp (e.g., mango, peach).
What are berry fruits?
Berries are fleshy fruits with seeds embedded in the pulp, derived from a single ovary (e.g., grape, tomato).
What are Hesperidium fruits?
Hesperidium is a modified berry with a leathery rind and juicy segments (e.g., citrus).
Define Peop fruit.
Pepo is a berry with a hard rind, typical of cucurbits (e.g., watermelon).
What is an orchard?
An orchard is A planned plantation of fruit trees managed for commercial production.
What is propagation?
Propagation is the process of multiplying plants either sexually (seeds) or asexually (vegetative methods).
What is Vegetative propagation?
Vegetative propagation is an asexual reproduction using plant parts such as stems, roots, or buds to produce true-to-type plants.
What is grafting in horticulture?
Grafting is joining a scion (shoot) to a rootstock so they grow as a single plant.
What is budding in plant science?
A Budding is a form of grafting where a single bud is used as the scion.
What is rootstock in pomology?
A rootstock is the lower part of a grafted plant providing the root system and influencing vigor and stress tolerance.
Scion is the upper part of a grafted plant that determines fruit characteristics.
Training in horticulture is the practice of shaping plant growth to develop a desired canopy structure.
Pruning in horticulture is the selective removal of plant parts to regulate growth, improve yield, and maintain plant health.
Fruit set in botany is the successful development of fertilized flowers into fruits.
Fruit thinning in plants is the removal of excess fruits to improve size, quality, and prevent alternate bearing.
Alternate bearing in plants is a phenomenon where heavy fruiting in one year is followed by low yield in the next.
What is dormancy?
Dormancy is a temporary suspension of visible growth in buds or seeds due to unfavorable conditions.
Chilling requirement of plants is the exposure to low temperatures required to break dormancy in temperate fruit crops.
Pollination is the process of pollen transfer from anther to stigma.
In plants fertilization is the fusion of male and female gametes resulting in seed formation.
Parthenocarpy is the development of fruits without fertilization, resulting in seedless fruits.
Climacteric fruits are those that exhibit a rise in respiration and ethylene production during ripening (e.g., banana).
Non-climacteric fruits do not show a climacteric rise in respiration (e.g., citrus).
In plants, maturity is the stage at which a fruit has completed growth and is ready for harvest or ripening.
Fruit ripening in plants is a biochemical and physiological changes leading to edible quality.
Post-harvest physiology is the branch of horticulture that deals with the study of processes affecting fruits after harvest, including storage and shelf life.
Integrated Pest Management (IPM in agriculture is the sustainable approach combining biological, cultural, and chemical methods to manage pests.
