e0“A straight correlation with PFD rates was found (R2 = 0.9896), suggesting that natural parthenocarpy is related to defective pollen development.”

- Observation Abnormal non-germinative pollen varied among grapevine cultivars.
- Observation Abnormal non-germinative pollen varied across growing seasons within cultivars.
- Association Pollen abnormality and PFD were not related under gibberellin (GA) treatment.
- Association Pollen abnormality and PFD were not related under abscissic acid (ABA) treatment.
- Intervention effect GA treatment increased PFD rates.
- Intervention effect ABA treatment reductiond PFD rates.
- Intervention effect GA treatment caused no significant change in abnormal pollen.
- Intervention effect ABA treatment caused no significant change in abnormal pollen.
- Intervention effect VvBOR3 was downregulated in GA treated grapevine.
- Intervention effect VvBOR4 was downregulated in GA treated grapevine.
- Intervention effect Floral boron content was reduced in GA treated plants.
- Mechanism impairment in B mobility to reproductive tissues may contribute to GA induced parthenocarpy.
- Mechanism restriction of pollen tube growth may contribute to GA induced parthenocarpy.
