The necessity to address the challenges posed by a growing population and recurring food shortages due to unforeseen droughts and floods has prompted the development of new plant varieties by horticultural scientists. Additionally, certain restrictions in the enhancement of fruit crops, such as extended juvenile periods, high genetic diversity, limited understanding of hereditary patterns, excessive fruit drop, parthenocarpy, and reduced seed count per fruit, have contributed to the creation of several mango, grape, papaya, banana, and guava varieties for various applications.
