Scientists Decode Genetic Basis of Seedlessness in Grapes
The Agharkar Research Institute, in collaboration with Savitribai Phule Pune University, has uncovered the genetic and developmental bases of seedlessness in grapes, particularly focusing on a seedless mutant of the ARI-516 grape cultivar. Their findings highlight pollen sterility and abnormalities in reproductive tissues as key factors, offering potential markers for breeding improved grape varieties.
