With the exception of plants that develop fruit through parthenogenesis, a stigma is required. The stigma is where the pollination or fertilization of the plant takes place.

Why will the fruit develop after removing the stigma of a flower?
Because the plant is able to divert it's energy to producing fruit instead of flowering.
What is the stigma's function and how does it do it?
The stigma is the ovening to the ovary of the female part of a flower. When pollen comes incontact with it the pollen sticks and then the ovary is fertlized so that the seed and/or fruit can grow and develop
What will happen when flower bud is emasculated n auxin is applied in stigma?
When a flower bud is emasculated and auxin is applied to its stigma than a seedless fruit develop. This phenomenon is called parthenocarpy .
Which plant part will develop into a fruit and which will develop into seed?
The flower becomes fertilized with pollen and swells into the fruit. The stigma (plant equivalent of ovaries) of the flower become the seeds if fertilised, and the rest grows around it. The resultant mass of tissue is a fruit. A plant part is only a fruit if the mass contains seeds. Therefore, apples and tomatoes are fruit, potatoes and strawberries are not. Bananas are technically herbs.
What part of the plant forms fruit?
the stigma and the style
Which part of the flowers do pollen tubes start to develop?
On the stigma of the carpel
What are steps involved in pollination to fertilisation?
stamens produce pollen,pollen transferred via wind or animal to stigma,stigma>ovary,ovules develop,seeds form,fruit develops...this is over-simplified=it is a complex process involving biotic and abiotic factors, plus self-fertilization and cross-fertilization
What forms when stigma and pollen develop?
when the pollen comes in contact with the stigma.. the pollen tube is formed. that then goes into the ovary and fertilizes with the ovule.
How do aggregate fruit develop?
several blossom on a flower stick together and develop in to a single fruit
Can a leaf develop into a fruit?
No. A fruit develops from a flower.
What happens to a pollen grains on the stigma?
pollen grain develop a tube that goes down the style
What part of the flower cathes the pollen garains dropped by the insects?
The pistil/stigma (top of the pistil), which is the female organ. Once fertilized, a seed or fruit will start developing.
