AIPMTAIPMT 2014Morphology of Flowering Plants
Solution:
A true fruit consists of a pericarp (fruit wall) formed from ovary wall and seeds formed from ovules. Pericarp is divisible into epicarp, mesocarp and endocarp. Tomato is a berry fruit derived from bicarpellary, syncarpous, bi-to tetralocular ovary with swollen placentae. Berry consists of a membranous skin represented by epicarp. Mesocarp is the middle fleshy part. Endocarp, septa and placentae are pulpy and edible. All parts of the fruit, except the small seeds, are edible.
